Five Forks.

We are hot and dry. Rain needed bad
ly. Corn and cotton look we'll. Crops
generally clean. a great deal of the corn
crop laid by. The health of the commun-
ity good.
The farm of Thos. Welborn is thing Of
beauty. Taking it altogether, i. e., his
own individual crop with that of bis ten
ants, it is the best have seen. Bill Neal
Hunnicut, one of Mr.. Welborn's tenants,
has the best worked crop in the Kingdom.
Thos. Wakefield has a little the best corn
I have seen. Our bell-ringer is out of the
wilderness, and his crop tells just how he
got out. Everybody is taking things fair
and easy.
Miss Beula Richardson, with her moth
er, visited her uncles, Matthias and Newton,
on Saturday evening. The young lady
will, in q short time, return to school in
Cincinnati and the indications are that
she will take the 10 of hearts back with
her.
Well, right here, wish to enter my
protest against two more evils which came
to the surface before / was aware of 1t,
viz, our little Five Forks Postofice hardly
pays expenses at best. The few stamps
the Postmaster cancels is all he gets for his
services. Every letter written here at
home and sent to Anderson to mail robs
him of two cents. Friends, pause and
reflect, patronize your own little Five
Forks Postof1ice and aid the Postmaster
all you can by so doing.
Evil the 2nd: Friend, when you need
the assistance of our faithful and efficient
DR.. Duckworth, don't wait till you have
done your days work, and then go for
him about dark, drag him from his home
in the night, deprive him of rest, and then
grumble like Sheol if he charges extra for
night service. Pause and reflect.
All this Northern portion of our Conn-
ty is solid for Ti1lman, "Jumbo' Sc Co.

James Henry" ESQ., has applied for
citizenship in the Kingdom, and guess
we can take him in. He seems to be q

IS good looking. Mind you, we admit no
ugly folks into our fraternity-ugly parties
need not apply.
a friend of mine in Charleston sends
me copy of the NeNs and Courier. dated
10th inst. The whole paper is full of ma
licious abuse Of Mr.. Tillman. Now would
be good time for some enterprising man
to start a soap factory in Charleston if the
grease could be obtained. The Neius and
Courier will furnish the concen trated stuff.
But, Pahaw! what more can we expect
from the Neaos and Courier? It has never
been anything but political "mud sling

Mr.. Steele McLees, young man about
20 years old, was drowned last Saturday
afternoon in Mr.. Burriss's mill pond, in
Rock Mills Township. He. was the only
son of a widowed mother, aud his death
resulted from q rash attempt to cross q
very swift current, caused by missing
plank in the dam. He was carried by the
current into the hole made by the missing
plank, and was unable to get out. He
was told that he could not pass it, but he
must try it, and so it resulted. Nothing
would have been gained had he passed.
All was lost to his mother, who depended
on him for her support by his failure.
Boys remember this and take no risk
without something is at stake.

The Lodge Room of Hiram Lodge No.
6S, A. F. NJ, was dedicated on the 9th
day of June-St. Johns day-by Grand
Master r. Il. Diver. The Grand Lodge
was opened in the Lodge Room, and from
there proceeded to the Opera House. where
most interesting address was delivered
by Past Grand Master James A. Hoyt,
after which the procession was marched
back to the Lodge Room, where it was
solemnly dedicated. The ceremonies were
simple, yet very interesting, and were wit
messed by quite number of masons, and
several who were not masons. Besides
Past Grand Master Hoyt there were two
other Past Grand Masters present, Jas. i.
Izlar and W. W. Humphreys. After the
address of Col. Hoyt, Judge 1zlar was in
troduced to the audience, but declined to
make q speech, saying that an attempt to
do so would mar the effect of the elegant
address of Col. Hoyt. Owing to want of
space and time, we are prevented from CIV

we would be glad to do.
