In driving through the country we have
observed that some farmers still persist in
the absurd practice of the broadcast seed
ing of fodder corn This argues either shift

Fodder corn should always be grown in

SCI for Stealing a Ham.

On Monday morning Milton Cglesby
found a canyassed ham concealed beneath
some straw in a banana crate In rear Of
J. W. Kbler & Co.'S. Milton had per-
mission to gather the straw in the empty
crates, and he informed Mr.. Jno. W.
Kibler OF his discovery and he was set to
watch further Developments. About 3
D. m, the crate was missed and just if
teen minutes before that time negro
boy was seen carrying banana crate
towards the restaurant on Nance street.
Chief Of Police Bradley took the case IN
hand and within fifteen minutes arrested
VIII Brown, the young negro porter OF
Kibkler & Co., for stealing the ham, and
Caroline Wilson, proprietor of the res
taurant, Sallie Edwards and Emeline
Simkins for receiving the stolen ham.
Chief Bradley quickly made it so
hot for the parties while he was searching
one portion Of the restaurant that they
carried out the ham and secreted it IN a
barrel behind the restaurant-al in broad
daylight. The ham was recovered.
The case was tried before Mayor
Blalock yesterday morning. The parties
were all present except Sallie Edwards,
who had deposited SIS for her appearance.
Will Brown got Sc or thirty days; Caro-
line Wilson and Emeline Simklns, 50
each or thirty days each. Sallie Edwards
forfeited her s..
The parties paid up-S27 in all-and
Sallie Edwards is yet to answer for her
part in the ham stealing.

Sunday Trains to be Put On tho C. G.
Road.
The State, Oh.

There will be an important innova'
ton in this State next Sunday, result
ing in great benefit and convenience to
the travelling public of this State and
other States.
Never has a passenger train been run
over the Columbia and Greenville road
on Sunday and the only attempt-to
run special excursion on the upper
portion of the line made about six
years ago-was promptly put down by
the Railroad Commission. But next
Sunday the regular trains, including
all but the passenger train between
Laurens and Newberry, will begin to
run on this road on Sunday the same
as any other day.
This is done in order to keep up the
connections of the new quick schedule
for Atlanta which has just been ar
ranged to put a person leaving here IN
the morning in Atlanta on the evening
of the same day, as already published
in the State.
There has been an idea for many
years that the charter OF the Columbia
and Greenville road would not allow
the running of trains on the road on
Sunday, but The State has the above
on the authority of one of the officials
of the road, and he says that the char
ter has no such provision, and the only
probable result that will come from the
Inauguration of the Sunday trains will
be the loss of some land granted origin
ally to the road.
The new arrangement will be boon
to the travelling public and Columbia s
railway advantages will be proportion
ately increased.

DIR PROSPERITY LETTER
An Elopement-The Painters Brush-To-
mato Plants.

Correspondence Herald and News.
PROSPERITY, May 9, 1892.
The peach crop is abundant.
Thousands and thousands Of tomato
plants are awaiting the early rains for
transplanting.
The painters brush in the hand OF
R. E. Brannan is addinga much needed
beauty to Grace church.
Business among the merchants is as
good as ever at this season.. Spring
hats and spri2g dresses will sell.
The wheat and oat crop is needing
rain badly; in tact the oats are suffer
ing, and unless some refreshing show
ers will soon give the much needed re-
lief the crop will be cut short by the
drought.
The preliminary hearing in the case
of the State vs. Lawson Counts for
burglary will be held to-day. Geo. b.
Cromer represents the defendant and
Col. Schumpert the State. The evil
deuce for the State seems to be conclu-
sive.
The stands of cotton on sandy light
lands is good, and IN some cases hoelng
has begun. Seed planted in clay lands
before the rains in April cannot possi-
bly, make stand. The stands of corn
are fair. Complaints of its dying come
from some localities.
Rev. Foster Bradley, of Due West,
preached series Of four sermons IN
the A. P. P. church here, beginning on
Friday night. OnSaturday be preached
again, and on Sunday he preached
twice Un Sunday morning the sacra-
ment of the Lords Supper was admin
istered to quite number Of communi-
cants. The services were we'll attended
and it is hoped much good has been
done.
A sensational elopement occurred in
town last evening (Sunday). AS the
scholars in Grace church Sunday-school
went to their respective places for reci.
tations, Mr.. Sidney D. Duncan and
Mis- Rosa Simpson left the church,
walked short distance to where there
was a buggy in waiting, which they
occupied, drove four miles to the Rev.
NJ. J. Epting's, who, after the usual
ceremony in such cases, pronounced
them mai and wife. They returned
and took lodgings at the Prosperity
Hotel, where they are happy und Sc
rene. MAY not a wave Of trouble roll
across their peaceful breast"

The Newberry Cotton Mills.

The annual meeting of the stock

Knights of Honor Hall. DR.. 0. b.
Mayer presided.
Mr.. il. G. Robertson the treasurer
and general manager submitted his re-
port which was satisfactory.
The following Board Of Directors
was elected. This is the same board
that has served continuously since the
organization of the mill in 1883: h. L.

Wheeler, R. II. Wright, w. t. Iarrant,
Geo. S. Mower, J. y. Martin, Jas. II.

That "Tired Feeling"

The newspapers are having good
deal offun nowadays over that "tired
feeling" so much spoken ofin medical
advertisements, in connection with the
ill-health of females. 1t tmay be asource
of hilarity to witty paragraphers, but
not so to suffering women, who by
overwork, and disregard Of the laws
of health, have lapsed into condition
bordering oD invalidism. What most
women need is to be relieved ofsome of
the slavish work that is piled on them,
and free, but judicious use Of streng-
thening tonics, such as P. P. P. prick

NOTES FROM EXCELSIOR.


Our school closed on Friday for vaca-
ton. Up to the present time the atten-
dance Of pupils was good.
MIR. J. A. Boland and family have
been on a visit to Mr.. L. G. Singley
and family of near Gary's Lane.
Mr. and Mrs A. A. Mates spent Satur-
day in Newberry. The Newberry
merchants get quite number OF GUS
toners from our quiet little COM
munity.
We are requested to state that there
will be no preaching in the academy
next Sabbath afternoon owning to a
communion meeting to be held at
Cannon Creek church on that day.
Rev. NJ. NJ. Kinard, of Columbia,
spent a few days under the parental
roof here last week. We were glad to
see him in good health and have a
brotherly shake of his hand again. Mr..
Kinard returned to Columbia on Sat-
urday.
Misses Mary and Eugenia Long, Of
Gallman community, spent few days
with relatives and friends in our little
village community last week. Come
again girls while the flowers are bloom
ing and we will help you gather some
more sweet bouquets.
A few of the boys enjoyed an oyster
supper at Prof. ]. S. Wheeler's resl-
dence on Saturday night. The boys
had quite pleasant time and ate oys-
ters until they coulcn't rest. Thanks
for an invitation ard we regret very
much that it wasn't suitable for us to
be present.
Messrs. Drayton D. Cook and J..
Willie Kinard spen5 few days over
at Fredonia last week, the guest OF
Mr.. J. T. P. Crossons' family. The
boys report having enjoyed quite a
pleasant time and We guess they will
be anxious to repay their visit soon, as
they speak very en;ouraglngly OF the
young ladies of Lexington County.
We have had some very warm
weather down here for few days and
overcoats are no longer i demand for
this season. It would seem that the
fruit crop is now safe from any more
cold weather. The earth is getting
dry and dusty. Small grain is needing
rain badly and should the rain hold
up short while longer the grain crops
will be cut off considerably. The crops
generally are needing rain in order to
get a good stand. A good season OF
rain would be a welcome visitor just
now. SIGMA.
