School Meeting at Townv,lle.

Some of the patrons Of Townville school
No. met in the Academy this evening
to take steps to try to put this school on a
better basis than it has had in past years.
A meeting had been held by a few per-
SONS sometime before this, at which Com
mittees were appointed to draft plans for a
school, and try to secure suitable person
as teacher. Neither of the Committees
were ready to report, but the Chairman on
plans said it was the intention, or hope, to
raise ten thousand dollars in bonds for
ten years, ten per cent. Of which was to
be used to maintain the school per year,
and that about six thousand, or nearly 81,
of said amount had been promised. ALI
who do not go into this plan will be re-
quired to pay at regular tuition rates, and
and every one will get the benefit OF the
public school fund as heretofore. The
following paper was offered and unani-
mously adopted:
Wheras, certain litigation was had some
months ago by. which. one Of the
schools in Townville is to be deprived of
aid from the public school fund after this
year; and, whereas, this community man.
ifestly is able to maintain two schools, as
was proved by this years experiment
and, whereas, it is not our wish to take
advantage of our neighbor school in any
way, but to extend 70 it pure good will;
and, whereas, our desire is that peace and
Christian charity shall prevail in our
midst as it used to do therefore, we, the
patrons of this the first and long estab.
fished school in Townville, do sincerely
and earnestly request The County School
Board of Anderson County to rescind at
Its next meeting the rule, or order, by
which our neighbor school is to be de-
prived Of aid, and to grant said school it's
full, proportionate share Of the public
school fund. Also, to prevent invidious
names, we suggest that, as ours is the
older school, it be designated as Townville
School No. l, and the other as Townville
School No. 2.
It was ordered that the Secretary send
the proceedings of this meeting to both
the County papers, with the request that
they publish the same.
After prayer for the success Of the enter
prise, the meeting adjourned to meet
again on the second Saturday evening of
November. r. s. LIaoN,
October q, 1890. Secretary.

The public will be glad to learn that no
house ever established in Anderson has
made such deep and lasting impression
on the public mind in such a short time
as Flynn. His store is so jammed with
eager buyers that the fourteen salesmen
and ladies are not sufficient to wait on bis
trade, and he is now advertising for four
more first-class men. He beats any man
in the up country buying, and that Is the
great secret Of his success. He claims to
sell at five per cent, and no doubt he
does. The crowds that fill my store daily
are overjoyed to find that they can buy
goods at five per cent. on New York Cost.
This is something new for Anderson, and
the public appreciate it.

The young men of Anderson are busi-
ness all round, and that is what makes
Anderson on such boom. Real estate
is rapidly advancing, and all the house
room in the city is occupied. Go into
every store, every business house, every
enterprise of every kind, and whom do
you find in the lead? In almost every
case young men. Our future depends on
our young men, therefore, encourage them
Christian Association building, in which
they will find both recreation and benefit.
Help the young men, and thereby increase
our hope of great future. Let it be the
boast and pride of Anderson that she cares
for and encourages her young men in
laudable efforts to ameliorate their condi-
tion intellectually, morally aud fnau-
cially. Look well to the young men, for
in them is the hope of our country.
Our good friend, Mr.. L. P. Shaw, Of the
Corner, came in to see US last Monday,
and told us of a.terrible crime that was
committed in his section on Saturday,
25th ult. The circumstances are about as
follows: On the day mentioned a travel
ling gin was engaged in ginning cotton on
the plantation of Mr.. VIM. MCGEE. Two
little boys, one son Of Mr.. MCGEE and
tu0 OthOl q oOQ Va Ihls ud14C9 W aloAO51
each about ten years of age, were packing
lint cotton in the press. While thus en-
gagged, negro boy about II years OF age,
passed by the press, and, striking a
match, threw it into the cotton. In few
seconds the cotton was ablaze and the lit
tie fellows began screaming for help.
Their cries attracted attention, but before
they could be rescued from the blazing
cotton they were most horribly burned.
Mr.. Wansley's little son never spoke
after he was taken from the press, and in
three hours time death relieved him
from his terrible sufferings. Mr.. McGee's
little boy was still alive last Sunday, but
it is feared that his burns will prove fatal.
At first the fire was mystery, but, upon
being questioned, Mr.. McGee's little boy
told how it occurred. He said that his
little companion had struck the negro
sometime before the fire occurred with q
stick, and that the negro set fire to the
cotton to get his revenge. The negro boy
has left the community, and has not been
heard Of since he committed the horrible
crime. The affair has caused considera-
BILE excitement and feeling in the neigh
borhood, and if the negro is caught, it is
doubtful whether any jury will be needed
to try his case.

COMING WEEK In CONGRESS-.
THE SILVER BILL WILL TAKE UP THE
SENATE'S TIME.

The Measure Passed by the House Will
be Substituted for the Present One-Ap-
preparations to Receive the Attention
of the Lower House.
WASHINGTON, June S.-The interest
that centered in the proceedings of the
House last week will be transferred this
week to the Senate. The discussion of the
silver question will be resumed tomorrow,
the bill that was passed by the House Sat
urday being substituted for the pending
measure on the Senate calendar. This will
facilitate the disposition of the matter. It
Is believed that vote on the bill will be
reached before the end of the week. 1t is
also believed that the bill as it shall pass
tine Senate will provide for the purchase Of
4,500, 900 ounces of silver monthly, the GER
tifcates to be issued In payment thereof to
be legal tender for all debts and to be re-
deemable in law ul money.
Senator Vest has given notice that he will
ask the Senate some day this week to take
up the bills on the calendar in regard to the
transportation of cattle and beef products,
but he will probably give way to the silver
debate if il shall continue during the week.
The legislative appropriation bill will be
reported to the Senate early in the week,
and Senator Allison, Chairman of the COM
mittee, says he expects 10 have it passed be-
fore the week ends.
In comparison with the preceding weeks,
the forecast of business to come before the
House this week is lacking in general inter-
est Several appropriation bills are on the
calendar, and it is the intention 10 dispose
