A Child Falls Into Il Well.

Last Thursday afternoon Hermon, the
three-year-old son of Mr. Geo. H. Higgins,
fell into Mr.. w. Scott Haryins we'll, and
was nearly drowned before he was rescued.
Mrs. Higgins was making social call at
Mrs. Harvln'S, and was just leaving when
one of Mrs. Harvin's children ran into the
house with the cry that "Hermon has fallen
into the vel" Mrs. Higgins was first to
get to the well, and in her fright attempted
herself to go down into the we'll to save her
boy, but was prevented. The little fellow
of course sank when he fell in. and before
his mothers eyes he sank again The buck
ct pole was at once let down, and the little
fellow managed to sustain himself thereby
for few minutes, by which time Mr.. Patton
Mcleod, who was near by, arrived and at
once rapidly descended to where the little
fellow was, reaching him Just as he was
sinking the third time. Others having ar
rived by this time they both We're pulled
out by means of the well pole. Hermon was
not hurt. but suggested that it was rather
much water for one time.
There are two remarkable condolences in
this connection. A few months ago little
child of MIR. n. NJ. Johnson fell into Mr.. C.
R. Rarvins well, and the same negro girl
was in that yard and near the well, as Was
in Mr.. W. S. Harvin's yard when Hermon
fell into the we'll. Mr.. J. W. Mcleod was
passing Mr.. c. r. Harvins just after young
johnson fell in, and the child was rescued
by Mr.. Mcleod. Mr. McLeod's son Patton
rescued young Higgins.
The family feel as if the little boy was
rescued from the grave.

News from Silver.

SILVER, Sept. 22-Another eventful day
in Silver's history marks an epoch Of her
rising progress. The morning was spent
in trial justice court, in the trial of road
defaulters; the evening was characterized by
the ladies' church festival. There is life in
all pleasure, but to enhance that pleasure
woman's work is the most iaudable. First
at the sepulcher, last at the cross, she finds
solace for all of mans woes. Were it not
for the disturbing element Of some nom
protesting church members, our community
bids fair to rival others. Dancing seems to
cripple religion 1t is an evil our preach
ers fail to handle, and for which they are in
measure responsible. The moral stand
ard of the rising generation is dangerously
crippled even by those whose lives as chris
tians should be an example worthy of imI-
tation. Even our academy, built by the
States money for the moral training OF boys
and girls, has been allowed by the trustees
to be turned into ball room. Oar school
commissioner, if he be q God-fearing man,
must look these things square IN the face.
He is responsible and must be held account
able.
A ride to Summerton will pay you. Every
effort has been made to build up Summer
ton. Capt J. P. Brock and Mr.. Rutledge
are enterprising gentlemen.
Mr.. j. A. Way has contracted to build
several new houses at Silver. There is no

The new Presbyterian church at this place
has Eeen completed and is a handsome
building. 1t is not q very large structure,
but capable Of accommodating the congre-
cation at this place.
The heavy and continued rains which have
been falling for the past eight or ten days,
have greatly injured the cotton crop. Great
quantities of open cotton cannot be gather
ed because of its wet condition, besides
much of it is sprouting in the bolls, and in
some places the bolls are rotting. At this
writing the weather is warm, and the indi-
cations are that the rain will continue.
The Episcopalians held the first service in
their chapel at this place last Sunday even
ing. Rev H. H. Phelps oficiated and ad-
ministered the sacrament. The chapel is
not completed yet, but will be in the near
future. In the original grant of this town
by the lord proprictors, lot Of land was
designated and set apart for the erection OF
an Episcopal church. but singular to say,
this is the first house of worship of that
denomination that has ever been built here.
The congregation is few in number, but by
persistent and steady effort it is at last en-
abled to worship under its own vine and fig
tree, with none to modest or make it afraid.

duty to appoint commissioners Of election
at least sixty days before the general cleo
ton to be held in November next, and that
September 8 WAS the last day on which such
could be legally made.

before the election.
lam solely responsible for this mistake,
you having referred the whole matter to me
and followed the advice given. regret this

it by having confused the appointment OF

among them Summerville end Walterboro,
where the appointments are required to be
made sixty days before the election.
