The pontoon bridge over the river at

An ordinance should be passed by the

Bill while in Columbia. Mr.. Chllds
certainly did not Intend for his bill to
pass, for, if we are not mistaken, it pro
hibits the making and sale Of domestic

Items from ST. Paul's,

We have had several showers of rain
during the last week. Thanksgiving
day was particularly rainy.
The grass is being removed from the
cemetery, and it begins to put on quite
a nice appearance.
In the grove near the Academy
building are some nice hickory-nu;s.
It is no uncommon sight at noon TO
see a group of school children seated
under = large tree busily engaged in
removing the large dry kernels.
St. Paul's church was nicely carpeted
last Wednesday. The members speak
of baving it repainted at an early day.
Since the church has been repaired,
the paint brush could add great deal
to its appearance.
The school has been steadily increas-
ing in number and the teacher is now
kept busily employed. {.

AT the Opera House.

Prof. Geo. Bartholomew showed his
educated hoises at the the Opera House
on Monday night to large audience.
Everybody was thoroughly pleased
with the performance. He showed
how "horse sense" can be fully de-
veloped in the lower animals, and his
horses seemed to be possessed with an
uncommon amount of intelligence, and
no doubt the horses one sees every day
have an average share Of the same
"sense.h
The twelve horses which played the
air of "The Last Rose of Summer" on
the bells and the deaf horse which un-
delstands the sign language were re-
raarkable. The most difficult feat, per-
haps, was rolling the barrel up an in
clined plane and the seesaw act by two
horses. The military drill was the
best thing the horses performed. The
professor was in full uniform and
mounted on a spirited black horse.
The commands he gave would be
difficult for even militiamen, but
the horses went through the drill with
most wonderful precision. There were
twenty-four horses in the troupe, and
eighteen were on the stage at one time.
The show is a good one, and everybody
should see it.
There was largely attended matt
nee yesterday and the last performance
last night.

ance is one Of much variety, and that
has heretofore pleased Newderry au-

Carpenter, the oldest inhaoltant OF
West Virg ginia, died at his residence IN

of Carpenters age vary, but none placed
him under l20 years. He claimed to
have been born in Loudon county, Va,
in 1882, and is therefore 159 years old.
He claimed to remember Braddock's
defeat. Carpenter had a son who died
ten wears ago at the age Of eighty.
Until recently his health has been fairly
good. He has one daughter still living,
who is over eighty.
