We'll Done.

That it pays to have the right man at
the right place, is forcbly demonstrated
by the showing in the County Commits
sioners Office, of the management of the
Poor House farm during the last year,
1890. It also shows that the cry that
farming does not pay is false. 1t is the
man that doesn't pay, and not farm. The
following is statement of the products of
the Poor House farm during 1890:

Manager Hill, Of the Opera House. has
made IN engagement with Madame Fry's
Concert Company to visit Anderson on.
Saturday night, 18th inst. This Company
seldom visits as small city AS Anderson,
anti Manager Hill is to be congratulated
npnn having induced it to come among us.
The Company is composed of some rare
musical talent, and its programme is an
exceedingly interesting one. The press
everywhere speaks in the highest terms
of the Company. The Pittsburg (Pa)
Times, in speaking Of il says: "The attend.
ance at the entertainment in the rooms of
tho Young Mems Christian Association
WAS So large last night that many were
unable to find seats The landings and
stairways were occupied by scores. The
performance was very refined one, and
the audience expressed its delight in un-
measured terms. The culture displayed
in the vocal performances was equalled by
the harmony Of the instrumental music"

In the death of Maj. James Thompson,
which occurred at his home in Varennes
Township last Sunday night, Anderson
County loses one of her best and most up
right, as we'll as one of her oldest native
citizens. He had been remarkably hale
aud hearty man all of his life. Just week
preceding his death be was stricken down
with pneumonia, which caused his death.
Maj. Thompson celebrated his seth birth
day on Christmas Day. He was born and
reared near where he died. and had always
resided in that section. He was success
full farmer, which vocation he followed all
his life. He was man of a very quiet,
retired disposition, and staid at home very
closely. We doubt if Anderson County
ever had a more conscientious citizen, nor
one who attended more closely to his own
affairs and let other peoples alone. In
early life be joined the Valennes Presby..
terian Church, and for long number of
years has faithfully served as Ruling Ell
der in that Church. He lived consistent
Christian life, and has gone to reap the re-
wards promised by our Heavenly Father
to those who love and serve Him. Maj.
Thompson leaves one daughter and two
sons to cherish his memory. On Tuesday
morning his remains were inferred in the
Varennes Churchyard, the funeral services
being conducted by Rev. 81. R. Fennel.

boon left for that State.
Mr.. ]. II. Burdine made eleven and one
half bales of cotton on eight acres Of land
this season. Several of our farmers nearly
came up to him.
Land is booming. Mrs. Ophelia Wyatt
has recently refused $1,000 for 81 acres.
Several of our citizens have refused $333 per
acre for their land.
More cotton is stored in these parts than
ever before at this season. We think the
owners had better let it go at 81 cents than
to pay storage on it.
Messrs. Long s. Scott have ginned over
five hundred bales of cotton this season.
The most pleasant occasions We had the
pleasure of attending during the holidays

The Greenville News, of the 1st inst. !,
says: "There was some time ago pub
lished an account of the marriage Of Miss
Anna Smith and Hubert Munford Carlton.
They were married near Pendleton and
those who read the story will remember
that the groom's original name was An
drow Jackson Tymms. His bride refused
to marry him until his name was changed.
A petition was presented to the Legisla-
turc asking that body to change Mr..
Tymms' name to Carlton. One
change, and confident that the other
would do so the young lady con-
sented to the marriage and believed that
she had become Mrs. Hubert Munford
Carlton. It is now said that the bill
changing Mr.. Tymtns' name failed to get
through both houses and that discontinue
reigus in the Tymms-Carlton household"

The public schools are now open, and
the people should send their children.
Remember that the average attendance in
your Township will depend upon the reg

For instance, eight children who only
attend ten days out of twenty. will only
count as much as four who attend every
day. Further, the school funds for your
Township are apportioped according to

that as large as possible,
