DOUBLE DAILY TRAINS.
The New Schedule on the C. and G. Road
The Main Line by Way of Laurens.

On Monday next the Columbia and
Greenville Railroad will begin sched-
ule which has been the talk for some
time.
Through trains from Columbia will
be put Oh by way of Laurens, leaving
Columbia at about L. il., and arriving
at Greenvile at 80 q. III. The trip
at first will be made in four and
half hours, but as soon as the track be-
tween Newberry and Laurens can be
repaired, the time will be reduced to
three and Il half hours. At Laurens
the track Of the GreenvilIe and Laurers
road-comparativeiy new--will he
used, the distance being 80 miles. From
Columbia to GreeDville the distance is
about l09 miles agaiL st IA miles by
the old route to Greenville that has
been used since the road was built.
The train will leave Greenville in the
afternoon and arrive at Newberry about
Z p. m, and Columbia about 8 p. m.
The morning train from Columbia
will connect with a train which will
leave Newherry at 8 a. m. for Anderson.
Leaving Anderson at II o'clock it will
arrive at Newberry about p. NJ, and
will be consolidated here with the main
line train for Columbia.
A postal clerk will be put on the
main line between Columbia and
Greenville.
The train from Laurens to Columbia
will be discontinued. Its schedule has
been very convenient and it appeared
to be fixture, but we still have the c.,
y. d l.. schedule if we want to make a
visit to Columbia and return the same
day.
The regular passenger trains passing
NeWberry at l p. n. and 3.42 p. M,
will continue the same schedules.
uperintendent Dodson has made
good change in the schedules. The
new train from Columbia is decidedly
the best one ever put on the road.
Now, if Capt. Dodson and Capt.
Childs will give Newberry a union
passenger depot, we will be happy.
Special trains will leave Hodges each
day Of the Fair at a. NJ, passing
Newberry about a. m., and arriving
at Columbia at 10 a. m.
The rates have not yet been an
nounced on the G. \. & L. Road, nor
is it likely that special train will be
run.
The rates on both roads will be the
same-Sl.50 from Newberry for the
round trip, including one admission to
the Fair.

Jottings from Johnstone Academy,

Jottings from Johnstone Academy.
Roads are very heavy in sandbeds
from Prosperity to Newberry. don't
know where their equal is.
Corn gathering is the order of the
day. The yield is good and was never
better.
Mr.. Geo. P. Griffin has had Colony
Church yard greatly improved by SOW
ing it down. All church yards ought
to be sowed down in orchard grass and
clover. Nothing would add more to
their appearance. Mr.. Griffin GER
tainly deserves some praise for the in
terest be has taken, So few do their
duty that man needs no praise when
he does his duty these days.
Johnstone Academy patrons are re-
quested to meet at the Academy at 2
p. m. Friday to elect trustees, make
regulations for another year and to
pay their years taxation. Those who
owe cid accounts are requested to
come and pay up, or make satisfactory
arrangements, as the trustees have had
to pay about $50 out of their pockets.
We think every one who owes old ac-
counts should come up and make ar
rangements. Those who can't pay all
should come and pay part. We think
all the patrons should help to pay the
deficit and not the trustees foot the
whole bill.
Let US all put our shoulder to the
wheel and make Johnstone school an
honor to the one from whom it is
named-that noble man, Chancellor
Job Johnstone of ante bellum days.
Your presence on Friday, October
3Gth at = p. m., will show what in
terest you have for the school. We
want no proxies. Your presence is re-
spectfully requested. We ought to
make arrangements to pay the small
debt on the building and get good
titles. No one is willing to help build
up a school unless it has good titles to
the lot.
Ware House, No. 1912, meets on Sat
urday before the first Sunday at p.

slowly from typhoid fever.
am satisfied we have no malaria in
our burg. We have had two cases Of
typhoid fever at the Boyd house in
the last three years, but the seat of the
malaria was always brought there.
Mr.. Pierce Cuzhardt was on the sick
list when we came to the Boyd place,
so was our friend Griffin just from the
malarial swamps Of Arkansas.

NEWS FROM PROSPERITY.

Mr.. W. B. Spence leaves tomorrow
to take up his abode in Atlanta. Mrs.
Spence preceded him to the Gate City
| ten days ago. We are sorry to lose
such citizens as these good people.
And still another gone. Robert l..
Whites, (Bobbie), has thrown himself
under the protecting wings OF The
State in Columbia. Prosperity's con-
tinual loss of her young men does not
augur we'll for her.
A few days ago the little ten year old
daughter of Mr.. Thompson Wheeler
fell from a loaded wagon by which
she sustained serious injury in the
spinal column. It was at first thought
she might be cripple for life, but such
fears are now dispelled and she is i'm
proving.
The dry season is preventing the
farmers from sowing full early crop
of fall oats. Red lands are entirely too
dry to SOW at all. Seed oats are worth
75c. per bushel here.
A new schedule for both the Laurens
train and the Anderson cannon ball"
will go into effect on Sunday, Novem-
her lst. Newberry will be the term
mus for the Anderson train instead of
Prosperity. The Laurens train will
leave Columbia at a. M, by way of
Laurens to Greenville, and return to
Columbia at p. No., thus making two
daily trains from Columbia to Green
vile and vice versa. 1t remains 70 be
seen whether this change will benefit
the travelling public or not.
Last Sunday morning there was no
preaching in town, Notwithstanding
we have four churches here. This has
occurred before, and does seem to US
should be remedied in some way, so
that there would be divine services in
at least one church on every Sunday.
The season for in-gathering has been
and continues to be very fine, and the
farmers have not been slow to improve
it.
The public schools of Township 8
will open on the 10th November next.
Our County Treasurer was adver-
tised to be here to-day for the purpose
OF collecting county and State taxes,
but at this writing ] l a. m., he has rot
put in an appearance. What's wrong
with you, Callie? YUBE.

Deafness Can't be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to euro deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflaned con-
dition Of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
infamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, herring will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an
infamed condition Of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that we cannot cure by taking

ATTEMPTED MURDER AND ROBBERY.
Mr.. j. II. Crisp, of Gary's Lane, Shot Three
Times in the Head by a Negro.

a bold attempt at murder and rob-
berry was committed 10y all unknown
negro man 1T Gary's Lane in broad
daylight on Monday.
Mr.. J. H. Crisp, postmaster, keeps a
store at Gary's Lane. About II O'Clock
On Monday a negro man came into the
store presumably to buy some goods,
and also with most outrageous intent.
He did buy few articles, looked at
some shoes, and went out. He came
back into the store and told Mr.. Crisp
that he believed he would buy a pair
ofshoes. Mr.. Crisp showed him one
pair, and the negro said he would take
another pair he had looked at. AS Mr..
Crisp turned around to get the shoes
out of the shelf be was shot three times
in the head in succession by the negro.
The first shot struck him on the back
Of the head, and ranging around The
skull, came out on his forehead. He
received the other two shots as he
turned around, both on the sides of his
head.
The only person in the Immediate
neighborhood was colored woman at
Mr.. Crisp's house. She made an outcry
and the negro tiend ran out of the
store into the pine tbichets. A
colored man ran after him and found
him concealed under brush heap.
The negro attempted to shoot him, and
be ran back to the store and the negro
got away.
A posse of determined men, both
white and colored, who soon got news
of the terrible outrage, started in search
Of the negro.
John Hunter took up strange negro
two miles above Goldville, following
the railroad. A man named Goodwin
was attracted by the strange appear
ance of the negro above Goldville and
when got to the store and heard about
the shooting he told Hunter about the
strange negro.
When Hunter caught the negro, he
said Ppm not the man you're hunting;
you're hunting the negro that shot the
white man down the road. A negro
named John Stevens shot him.:
Tom Brock was left in charge of the
negro while Hunter went to Crisp to
get a description of the negro who shot
him. and took back the colored man
to Identify him.
The description that Mr.. Crisp gave
fitted exactly the appearance of the
strange negro who had been taken up
on the railroad. Everything tailed
except that his recollection was the ne
gro wore shoes; the negro arrested had
no shoes on. The negro wore a red
dish hat turned iuside out and dove
colored coat. He was a young negro
about 20 years old and weighed about
140 pounds.
- When Hunter got back the negro
was gone. 1t is said be "got away"
He has not been seen or heard of since.
The negro intended to rob the store
kill Mr.. Crisp and perhaps burn the
store. Mr.. Crisp had twenty-five dollars
in his cash draw and the negro saw it.
Mr.. Crisp's wounds are not serious,
and be is getting along well.

To School Trustees.

By order of the County Board of Ex-
aminers, the public schools of New
berry County will open on November
10Th.
Trustees, as required by Jaw, should
hold meetings before the opening Of the
schools. Atthese meetings everything
pertaining to the efficiency of the
schools. Applications from teachers,
convenienceS of school buildings, &C.,
should be considered.
All teachers employed should have
certificates from the County Board of

depends to a great extent upon the
earnestness and sympathy of trustees.
I will gladly attend any meeting
when I can do so.
