Honor to Whom Honor Is Due.

Mr.. EDITOR: 1t is frequently noticed
in the correspondence Of the County pa
pers where some great and shining
light" pining for glory and renown, and
like one of old, for more worlds to con-
quer, pitches into the Board of County
Commissioners and just RAISES CAIN" as
it were Tin their own estimation, / sup.
pose.)
Now am no County Commissioner,
never was, nor never expect to be, and
write this without the knowledge or con-
sent of the Board of Commissioners, but
in justice to them think it is about time
they were given credit for some of the
good accruing to the County through their
management.
ANY one conversant with County affairs
is aware Of the fact that when the Board
of County Commissioners for the years
1889 and 1890, Messrs. 3. G. Martin, A.
w. Pickens and w. T. McGill, assumed
control of affairs the County was involved
in debt to the tune Of about 81, ,84S.
At the February term of Court for 1891,
after all ndebtedness--both current and
past-had been paid, the Grand Jury found
sixty-tour dollars to the County's credit,
and this with the same tax levy as for the
years in which the Indebtedness accumu.
lated.
The present Board, Messrs. w. T. Nc
Gill, B. G. Martin and r. E. Parker, are
paying cash for all work done, and have
nearly FIVE thousand dollars to the Coun-
ty's credit to pay expenses the remainder
of the fiscal gear, which is two months.
The tax levy for 1891 for County pur-
poses is one.half mill lower than formerly,
with prospect for still greater reduc-
tion, as there is no past indebtedness to
be provided for as formerly.
The bridges Of the County are as staunch
and kept in as good repair as at any time
in the County's history, SO far as I am
able to learn.
AS to the lawfully awful" condition
some would have US believe the roads are
in, it ought to be borne in mind that the
present year has been exceptionally bad
on roads, al we'll as crops.
When it is remembered that these men
who have redeemed the County from
debt and placed it on a sound financial
basis are men taken from tho daily voca.
ton of farm life without any financial
training, I think they should be given
credit for their good deeds, and not have
the surplus 'slop" Of few smart Elicks'
thrown at them as has been the case lately.
Our Commissioners are men deserving
credit for their good deeds, and not abusa
for their short comings, however envious
some may be of their record. SELAH.

Judging from the amount OF work that
is being done, the people of this section
mean business in every sense OF the Word.
You would have thought so, too, had you
been near the Church for the last two or
three weeks. A singing school, literary
school, and saw mill were in full blast,
besides new gin house in process OF
erection-all within fifty yards Of each
other. The latter, owned by F. M. Ers-
kline g. Co., is nearing completion.
Mr.. J. J. Major has erected a new GIN
house on his plantation which, with Mr..
A. A. Carpenters, makes three gins
within q radius of two miles. Bring on

drought so far, and are looking we'll

Mr.. 8. D. Anderson, with sGlall army
of from ten to twelve men, is busiiy en-
gagged in fighting large army OF tau pine
trees. From the latest account from the
saw mill, he is likely to be victorious.
The singing school, taught by Mr.. ]. T.
Milford, closed Thursday, Goth inst,
after e session of ten days-forty to fifty
pupils in attendance. A public day was
given at its close. The program consisted
of anthems, solos, bright Sunday School
songs, Church music, and few pieces OF
secular music. All were we'll rendered
and afforded much pleasure to the audi
ence. No such attachments in vocal mu'
sic could have been secured but by dill
cent study and practice under an ener.
eeetic and progressive teacher. The pure
and eleyating songs that were sung may
inspire the pupils to nobler thought and
action, filling their souls with 6 gladness
and gratitude toward the Maker OF us all
Many home now resounds with the
songs learned at the school, and is made
brighter thereby. While there are many
cares and troubles that we can not cry
away. there ure many that we can sing
away, Let the children be taught how 10
sing is our motto. 70.
A recent protracted meeting at this
place conducted by the pastor, Kew. J. !,
Smith, resulted in the addition OF several
new members, besides stimulating Churcn
members in Christian duty. The SUNDAY
School, Superintended by Mr. Jesse Aine
is in hourishing condition. -,
The patrons and friends of the day
school are invited to attend its closing ex'
ercises Friday, September 4th, from to
%, M. The cordial support accorded tue
present school by its patrons, has oontrl1
uted much to its success, and II continued
will furnish a good opening Tor any pro-
gressive teacher.

Last Friday afternoon Mr.. Calhoun Will
son, of Craytonville, was on his way
home from Brushy Creek, and was ac-
companied by his cousin, Miss Essie
Wilson. The rains had been heavy, and
while crossing Hurricane Greek, near
Williamson, they came near being
drowned. The stream was swollen and
very swift, and the horse and buggy were
washed down the creek. The horse was
drowned, and the young lady was thrown
out and carried one hundred yards down
the creek. She sank twice, but on COM
ing up the second time grasped an over
hanging bush, where her cousin found
her and rescued he1.

A Mysterious Clock.

jewelers. Weekly.
NJ. Wollman, the jeweler of Coun.
Gil Bluffs, 10, has given the curious
ample opportunity TO test their iDge-
nuity in an endeaVOr to fathom the
mystery of clock which he has
recently completed and placed in one
of his show windows. So far the
most persistent have failed to discOv-
er the influence that impels the
unique timepiece so accurately TO
record the hours and minutes. A
short time ago Mr.. Wollman made an
electric clock that attracted attention,
not only in Counc Gil Bluffs, but in eX-
pert circles elsewhere.
The mys terious clock is far ahead
of the electric apparatus in many re-
spects. In appearance it resent les
the colored alcohol signs in a drug
store window, being simply two glass
globes placed one above the other,
which is notcbed to show that it does
not conceal mechanism. The base is
solid piece of cherry wood turned
out inches In diameter. From this
the slender pedestal rises and sup
ports the first globe, which is about
7 inches in diameter. On this globe
is dial marking the minutes.
Screwed to the base is u solid metal
hand which points TO the minutes as
they go by, the globe making one
complete revolution in each hour.
Above this is the smaller Globe,
about inches in diameter, with a
dial around its equator indicating the
hours. A piece of silver plated steel
spring bent in the form of the figure
is screwed to the base, forms the
top support for the two
globes and carries the stationary
hand that points out the hours
ON the smaller globe, which revolves
once in twelve hours. The globes are
of very thin and transparent glass
and have no apparent connection
with each other, at the top or at the
base, except by the DELEGATE
pivots that penetrate only q small
traction of an inch into the
glass and form the axes upon which
the globes revolve. Another peculiar
ity that renders the mystery OF the
mechanism still more profound is the
fact that either of the globes can be
revolved back ward or toward on their
delicate pivOts with great rapidity
and without injury. When the mo-
tion ceases they resume their func
tions, losing only the time occupied
in spinning them.
The whole device is set on a mirror
in Che showcase, and can be picked
up and examined at will. The mys-
terry is the force that moves the
globes so accurately and continuous
ly, one just twelve times faster than
the other and both in perfect time
with the jewelers. regulator, which
looks down upon the strange device
as much myssified as the mechanical
expert who critically examines the
novel clock, or the street
gamin who gaaes upon it through
she chow window. II has been in
timated that sunlight or heat is
the motive power. but Mr.. Wollman
has disproved this by placing the
timepiece in the shadow. With the
exception of the glass globes every
part of the mechanism has been made
by Mr.. WOlImsn at his bench. 1t lis a
strange and remarkable production,
and bids fair to remain puzzle until
its maker sees fit to reveal his secret.
