The Seventh Circuit Stenographer.

Judge Wallace has appointed Mr.. J.
D. Campbell official stenographer of
the 7th judicial circuit to fill the va
cancy caused by the resignation of Mr..
VIM. Adger Law, who has so accepta-
bly, filled that position for several years
past.
Mr.. Campbell, with ten others, en-
tered the competitive examination for
the position on the 30th of June in the
Charleston Court of Common Pleas.
Six out of the eleven contestants COM
piled with the terms of the eXamina-
ton and handed in reports to the Off
cial stenOgrapher of the lst circuit.
The reports were all we'll done, and
it is only fair to the young men who
went through the contest to the end to
say they were all competent to fill the
coveted position. But where there was
only one prize, of course only one man
could win. The contestants all made
an average of over 80 per cent. out of
possible 100, and Mr.. Campbell, the
successful competitor, scored 81 per
cent out of a possible 100.
Mr.. Campbell is a native South Caro-
linian, who has had considerable prac-
tical experience in the Courts of this
Stale. For the past few years he has
been located at Nashville, Tenn. The
7th circuit has secured a thoroughly
competent stenographer and an officer
of high character.-News and Courier.

Quick Trip to the Penitentiary.

George Matthews, colored, was
arrested last Friday morning for break
ing into the office Of the Newberry
Cotton Mills on Wednesday night, the
Sth, and attempting to rob the iron
vault Of its valuable contents. He
missed his game, and found after cutting
a semi circular hole in the brick casing
around the side bolt of the lock that he
had another bolt at the top and still
another at the bottom to tackle. He
gave it up as bad job.
Not more than $75 is kept in the
vault at any time.
Thursday morning the mill officers
found matters as he had LEFT them. They
began an investigation and found the
point of kuife blade sticking between
the window sash. They suspected
Matthews, and instructed one of the
mill employees to borrow Matthews
knife. The knife was obtained. The
point of the knife blade was broken of
and the piece found between the sash
fit it exactly
Matthews used his knife in raising the
sash in order to get into the office and
he broke off his knife blade.
He was sent to Jail by Trial Justice
Maybia on Friday. On Monday he
was tried in the Sessions Court on the
charge of burglary and convicted.
Matthews has been employed at the
mills for the past five years, and has
been considered a reliable and honest
negro.

Died, at her home in NeWberry, on
Friday afternoon, July 10, 1891, Mrs.
Carrie F. Speck, who, had she lived
one day longer, would have completed
the 37th year of her earthly life. She
was the eldest daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Jno. o. Peoples, aud the wife Of
our esteemed fellow townsman, Capt.
John F. Speck. The deep sympathy
of the entire community has been
aroused for the bereaved families, for
by the death Of this estimable LADY
great void and, humanity speaking, an
irreparable loss has been made in the
home circle. Mrs. Speck had spent
large part of her married life in other
towns, and from the deep interest
manifested by friends when they
learned by kilograms Of her extreme
illness, we may we'll believe that she
was very highly esteemed wherever
she made her home. Not only her
immediate family mourn their loss,
but the church, the Sabbath-school,
the Ladies' Aid Society, of which she
was the president, will greatly miss
her who was ever ready to give her
heart and strength to every good work.
She is gone from US, br' we sorrow not
as those who have no HO'e e. Her end
was filled with peace which robbed
the death chamber of its ordinary
gloom.
With her intellect clear and un-
clouded, and a calmness and resigna-
ton to Gods will concerning herself
wonderful to behold, she called her
loved ones around her bed and took an
afectionate farewell of each, giving
such counsel as the circumstances Of
each might seem to require. The
springs of her comfort and consolation
were out Of sight, but those who saw
her holy JOY as she was passing through
the valley of the shadow of death, did
not doubt but thc she was upheld by
the "Everlasting Arms" On Satur-
day afternoon We laid her body away
in Rosemont Cemetery, in the conf
dent expectation ola glorious resurrec-
tiou. Her grave was covered with
flowers, the offerings of many friends,
and we turned away, sorrowing for
our loss, but thanking God for that
good hope We enjoy through grace Of
meeting our loved ones on the "Beau-
tiful shore.'

NOTES FROM EXCELSIOR.

Garden vegetables are rather scarce
with us just now.
The 4th of July found very few
watermelons in this section ready for
| the knife.
Our school is now in good working
order with full attendance Of pupils.
Next Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock
is the appointment for preaching in the
academy building.
Mr.. Z. S. Werts, of Saiuda, has been
spending several days with relatives
and friends in our little village.
Mr.. James D. Kinard spent last week
with relatives and friends in the Saluda
neighborhood. Mr.. Kinard reports crops
in that community as looking well.
We had the pleasure of spending
short while in Newberry on last Fri
day. We were glad to see Newborry
still on the march of progress and
crops along the road looking well.
Messrs. Marion Miller, S. L. Shealy
J. S. Wheeler and J. a. G. Kibler,
went to Saluda river last week on
fishing expedition. The boys report
chance of fun and each man a nice lit
tie mess Of fish.
Miss Cora Domin; k opened her
school at St. Paul's academy on last
Monday morning. We are pleased to
learn that the various schools recently
opened have a good attendance of
pupils.
A good many of our people are look
ing forward for pleasant time at the
Lutheran reunion to be held at Little
Mountain August 5th. Let's all 60
and enjoy pleasant day together and
take a fresh breeze from the mountain
top.
Two Of Mr.. NJ. D. Kinard's daugh-
ters, of Williamson, spent few days
in this section last week. Their visit
here, however, was not Of a pleasant
nature as they were summoned by
telegram Of the death of friend here.
They returned home on Saturday.
Our community has been visited by
good seasons of rain during the past
week and crops look much improved.
The wind has also been pretty severe in
this section blowing down fencing and
injuring old corn to some degree. We
are not complaining as our quiet little
community has been blessed so far
from any serious damage and We only
trust it may continueso.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. T. P. Crosson, of
near Lewiedale, returned home on
Monday from few days visit to rel
atives and friends in this section. Mr..
Crosson Informed us the crops in his
community had very good appear
ance but that the farmers of his section
didn't plant so much cotton but planted
more corn, peas, watermelons, grain,
etc. The farmers ought to begin to
realize the fact that almost any kind OF
farmers plant will pay better than
the cotton plant at six and seven cents
per pound. In order to march along
the line of progress the farmers will
have to make a little change in the
cotton crop and we believe the sooner
the better.
We have been on the complaining
list for a short while but glad to state
this week that we are again feelilg like
the same little SIGMA.

Deafness Can't be Cured

by local applications, as they can not
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous lining OF the
Eustachian Tube. When this. . he gets
infiamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
Catarrh) that we can not cure by taking
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu-
lars, free.

Death of Mrs. Speck.

The heart of our community was
touched last Friday when it learned
that the gentle spirit of Mrs. John r.
Speck had departed this life, never
more to brighten her little circle nor
take part in the gracious services OF
her religious work. ;,
Our deceased friend was the beloved
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John o.
Peoples and wife Of Capt. Jno. r.
Speck. She was born July l., !S24,
married August I, 1872, and died July
10. 1891. Two days more would nave
completed her 37th year.
Much Of her married life was spent
abroad, having but recently returned
to Newberry to make permanent
home. When the news Of her extreme
illness and death reached the places
where she had lived, deep and tender
feeling of sympathy was manifest
beautiful tribute to the exalted life of
a Christian woman; the golden thread
of whose flial life as daughter had
grown more and more radiant IN the
sweet and patient ministries OF wife
and mother. :. 49,,
She was president of the Ladies Aid
Society of Aveleigh church and took an
abiding interest in church and Sunday
school work. Her death was peaceful ana
triumphant. In the sacred hush or the
chamber of death she had witnesses IN
the hour of her dissolution that all was
at rest. She bade her family and friends
an affectionate farewell and thanked
her pastor Rev. DR.. CoZby for his SIN
cere sympathy in her illness and
bereavement.
Her remains were consigned to the
dust in Rosemont cemetery last Satur-
day afternoon.
