In company with Mr.. Z. A.
Geauden, we had the pleasure OF
attending the ice cream supper at
Whiteville Friday night. Leaving
Bolivar at 4 O'Clock in the after
noon we had an opportunity of OBJ
serving the condition of crops
along the road, save where the
bushes were allowed to grow so
high along the fences as to Obstruct
the view. The fields were green
with grass and good judgment and
hard work viii be required to kill

6 o'clock. and after putting our
horse in the stable, walked down to
the Duncan Hotel, where we met
Mr., Duncan and his estimable fam
lily, A delightful supper oyer, We
went down town where il was our
pleasure to meet a number of the
citizens. At night-fall the people
began to assemble in the school
house, which was soon crowded.
Rev. Hardin Turner was introduced
to the audience, who spoke at some
length, his subject being "whY did
YOU do it 2" He showed that peo-
pie would do numerous things
without any reason therefor. For
instance a child would learn his
lessons at school and recite them
without ever knowing why certain
rules were given. he also applied
his subject to actual life, giving those
present something to think about.
At the close of his address which
was intensely interesting from the
beginning, he claimed that he was
getting hungry and that he knew
the young people were too, and that
they come and eat as much they
please tor the benefit Of the school.
After all had Dartaken freely OF the
cream and cake, Miss Stewart with
some of the young gentlemen treat
ed the audience to delig htful mus
sic, which was highly appreciated.

Of public instruction and the teach

Sumner refuses to issue certificates
without the fee and law suit will
probably be the result.

WE cannot too strongly urge upon
our people the necessity Of preserv-
ing our timber. The railroads and
factories are consuming vast qusn-
titles daily and the time is not far
distant when tim Der will be scarce
and valuable. Perhaps 100000
acres of HatchIe bottom land in this
county is covered with virgin for
est. These lands are valuable for
their timber and grass and the day
will come when they will be in
great demend. We need above all
things here mills and factories to
manufacture wooden fabrics. The
raw material is at our doors of the
finest quality and in the greatest
abundance.

MILWAUKEE,, July 1.-THE National en-
campment Of the Grand Army of the Re-
public at Milwaukee in August will be SIM
ply business meeting, with no parade or
display and very limited attendance.
The department commanders had asked
the railroad companies for rate of
one cent mic for the comrades.
and gave the corporations until
Wednesday to accede to these
terms. A meeting was held, which was at
tended by Commanders Martin of Illinois,
Weissert Of Wisconsin, Barto OF Minne-
sofa, and Davis of Nebraska, when it was
determined to adhere to previous action,
to advise the old soldiers not to attend the
cncampment, as the railroad companies de-
clined to make the stipulated rate.
Letters were received from Commanders
Brown of Michigan, Travis of Indiana,
Mention of Kentucky, and Smith of
Iowa, and from the department COM
manders of Missouri and Kansas, in
dorsing and advising the action which
was taken. All of the department COM
manders stood firmly by the proposition
made on Tuesday of last week, to the effect
that the rate should be one cent mile. or
they would issue orders to have only dele
gates go to the convention and discourage
the attendance of all others.
