lightning struck Mr.. Reuben Clinkscales'
stables, in Martin Township, and killed q
valuable young horse of Mr.. L. N. Martin.
There were several mules and horses in
the stable, one of which was slightly
stunned by the lightning. The stables
caught fire, but were extinguished before
much damage was done. Mr.. Martins
horse was struck on the head, which was
almost shattered, the eyeballs being torn

Maggie, little daughter of Capt. Wilton
Poulnot, of Charleston, died at the resi-.
| dence of Mr.. J. J. Gilmer, in this city, last
| Monday morning, at O'Clock, after an
| illness of about two weeks with bronchial
| pneumonia. In company with her mother,
she came to Anderson about month ago
to visit Mr.. Gilmer's family, and when
she was stricken down she received every
attention possible. Capt. Poulnot reached
the city Friday, and when the little girl
passed away, she was surrounded by her
parents and two sisters She was II years
of age, and a bright amiable girl. Her re-
mains were carried to Charleston last
Monday for interment.
We took little jaunt to Hartwell, Ga,
last Saturday, and on Sunday attended the
annual Camp Meeting that is held near
that town. The trip was most enjoyable
one, indeed, for we met many new friends
and renewed the acquaintance of many old
ones. The attendance at the meeting was
IS large as usual, and much interest was
manifested in the services. A most excel
lent sermon was preached at II o'clock, a.
III. on Sunday by Rev. MIR. Jamison, OF
Toccoa. We spent Saturday night with
Mr.. J. R. Meredith, formerly of this Coun-
ty, who is now in charge of the Hartwell
Hotel. He conducts his house like vete-
ran landlord. That section can't be ex-
celled for its clever people and pretty girls,
and it is always pleasure for US to visit
there. The crops all along the road, on
both sides of the river are fine and the
farmers are expecting an abundant yield.
We are glad to be able to announce the
complete organization Of ''The Anderson
Female College, the first session of which
will open on the 23rd of September next.
The following is the Faculty: Rev. A. A.
Marshall, President; Misses Varina D.
Brown, J. Lois Watson, Maggie M. Evans,
Olive NJ. Brown, NJ. Lucille Nardin, teach.
ers in the Literary Department; Miss Vir-
ginia Evans will teach instrumentalj mu-
sic, and Mrs. Pauline Gurganus vocal, and
Miss Lizzie a. Mathews will have charge
of the art department. All the pupils
from the County will get the benefit OF
the public school fund. This is one thing
that our people should take special inter-
est in and try to encourage and build up.
We can see no reason why this College
should not be one of the best institutions
of the country for the education of our
young ladies. The people of Anderson
can make it such if they only wlA, and we
hope they ,pin. Look ont for the advertise
ment next week.
