at once rested upon colored servant girl,
Ross Smith. The police were notified,

Did you ever ask man the time just
after he had inspected his watch and put

icelve an answer before the man pulled his
watch out and took another look at it
Just why it is that this is done it would
be difficult to explain but if you will ask
YOUR friend to tell you the hour next time
YOU observe him scrutinize his watch and
snap the lid, you will 6nd that he will
take another look at the dial before Civ

Messrs. Simpson, Reid d Co. have
moved back to their old stand on the COR

quarters are quite different from their old
room. Indeed, they now have one of the

The Walhalla Courier, of last week, says !:
"Miss Kate Holleman has gone to Ander-
son where we learn she will spend the
winter teaching school at Mofattsville.
She has taught with much success several
schools in Oconee since her graduation
from the Walhslla Female College three
years ago. It is to be regretted that she
did not remain in charge of some good
school in our County, for we can i'll afford
to part with such an efficient teacher.
We commend her to the-good people Of
our sister County as cultured Christian
lady and capable teacher" :"
