Facts from Iva,

That several dwelling houses have been
greatly improved by the magic touch of
the painters brush. The painter has
been busly at work in this community
since Christmas and has contracts out for
several weeks longer. We are of the spin
ion that money expended on the painting
of dwelling house to he an investment,

dividends, allowing so per cent. for the in
creased salablencss and attractiveness Of
home and surroundings, rs per cent. for the
consequent increased industry and thrift of
the possessor and 25 per cent. for the in.
creased durability of the building.
That our popular passenger 'corndoctor"
is not only polite and accommodating but
is in every sense most efficient conductor.
Not long since he discovered negro
crouched down upon the rear platform
stealing ride. and called for his ticket.
The negro searched in all of his pockets, but
with no other result Than that he must have
lost it in his haste to board the train. The
conductor ordered him, in lieu of his tick
Ell, to surrender his coat. The weather
being very cold, the tramp felt bis loss to
be no ordinary deprivation and entreated
most earnestly for the retention OF the coat,
saying that the value of the coat was not
manded his hat, and upon the negro again
protesting that the combined value was not
equal to the fare, he demanded his shoes in
addition to the other articles.
That the power that lies in single word
is truly great. Some time ago We overheard
the one word "suicide" in conversation
between one of our handsome young bach
elors and a fair ''sweet SIXTEEN" The
remembrance of this incident, joined to
bis subsequent altered looks, made us en-
tertain some fears about our friends men-
tai condition, and We accordingly sought
him out and besought him to relinquish
the contem plation of such cowardly act.
Sufficient to say that we received no thanks
for our pains, nor will any one who even
hints at introducing the subject Of suicide

a Good Man Has Fallen.

Rev. A. P. Nicholson has been called
from time into eternity, his death having
occurred at his home in this city last Mon.
dsy night, about II o'clock. He had been
in bad health for several months past, a
greater portion of the time being confined
to his bed. Several weeks ago he went to
Easley, hoping that change would prove
beneficial. During his stay there he was
confined to his bed nearly all the time, and
last Saturday he was brought home. his
family realizing that he could live but a
few days longer. His death, therefore,
was expected at any moment. His disease
was of a complicated form, and at times he
was great sufferer, but lie bore bis suf.
ferings with that patience characteristic of
true and devoted christian.
Mr.. Nicholson was native of Pickens
County, and was So years of age. He re-
ceiyed his primary education at the old
Sabtown Academy, under the late Rev. ].
L. Kennedy. In 1859 or 1860 he entered
the South Carolina University, and was a
student there when the State called for
volunteers to enter her service in the war.
Mr.. Nicholson was one among the first to
respond to the call, and entered OTr's Reg
iment as q private. He was in active SER
vice throughout the war and made gal
liant soldier. Shortly after the war he be-
came a student Of the Columbia (Presby-
terlan) Theological Seminary, from which
he graduated in 1869. he ut once began
worf as minister and up to the time of
the failure of his health he was most va.
liant and active soldier in the service of
the Saviour It is little remarkable that
during his twenty-one years of service in
the work of his Church, he never missed
but two appointmen.s-one on account OF
sickness and the other on account of
storm.
Mr. Nicholson's first work in the minis
try was at Providence and Rocky River
Churches, in Abbeville County, where he
preached four years. From there he went
to Laurens County, and served three
Churches ten years. Thence he returned
to his native County, and. after supplying
three Churches for time, was called to
the pastorate of the Presbyterian Church
at Steel Creek, N. G.
He served that Church we'll for three
years, and then came back to his native
State At the time of his death he was
serving Midway and Slabtown Churches
in Anderson County and the Presbyterian
Church at Liberty.
Truly good man has fallen, one who
was greatly beloved by every acquain.
tance., He was an earnest, impressive
speaker, and has done good work for his
Church and for the Lord, whom he loved
to serve. a wife, two sons and two daugh-
ters are left to mourn his death, and in
their bereavement they have many sym.
pathizers.
The remains were inferred at Slabtown
on Wednesday.

A meeting Of the stockholders Of the

Miss Nancy Dalrymple died at the home
of her grand nephew, Mr.. W. @. Ham
mond, four miles northeast of Che city, on
Thursday, 18th inst, after an illness of
several weeks, aged 70 years. Miss Dal-
rymyle was q daughter of the late James
Dalrymple, who was one among the first
settlers of this section, and was born,
reared and always resided on the planta-
ton where she died. Until recently she
always enjoyed good health, and was
ever ready to visit and minister to the
comforts of the sick and needy of her
neighborhood, but she had never visited
Anderson nor had she ever seen train of
cars. Frequently Mr.. Hammond would
offer every inducement possible to get
her to come with him to the town, but his
efforts were in vain. Since her girlhood
she bad been a faithful member Of Mid
way (Presbyterian) Church, and as long
as her health permitted she was never
known to miss attending services there on
the regular meeting days. She was truly
good woman, and was highly esteemed
by those who knew her. On the day fol-
lowing her death her remains were in
tered in the old family burying ground,
Rev. DR.. Frierson conducting the funeral
services.

"Hark the voice of Jesus crying.
Who will 20 and work to-day"

The pastor, Rev. D. W. Hiott, offered
fervent prayer, and after hymn by the
congregation, read extracts from the
Scriptures, Il pom which he made forcible
comment. The "history,,of the Society," -
an admirable paper by Miss Eula Crymes,
was read by Mr.. &. II. Mahon. The
names of several former members we're
mentioned, among them the name of Mrs.
Mamie Mauldin Tribble, deceased, was
especially tenderly mcmorialized. After
singnipg hymn 236, the pastor rose and
regretted the absence Of nr. Bailey, who
had been expected. The embodiment of
the very impressive remarks made hy the
pastor is that beautiful sentiment of the
Master, "She hath done what she could"
at times the pathos was Irresistible, and
strong MEN we're touched by the PASTORS
tender references to the heroic work of
women. Cards to bear upon their face
the amounts and name of donors were
distributed through the congregation, and
handsome collection was taken. Tho
