How, for example, is it possible to
controvert the declarations of nearly
one-half of them, that the head with at
least thirty feet of round, uncanny
flesh, white underneath and black on
top, the only variation being n com
paratively small mouth and Il pair of
large staring eyes, was lifted high
above the waves, and that this con
stituted only onc-third of the entire
length! This would prove the genuine
sea serpent from all accounts to be not
less than ninety feet long.
When, in 1875, after Il severe storm,
every nan on board the Pauline. bound
with a cargo of Goals from Shields to
Zanzibar, saw n lot of sperm whales
playing in the water and u gigantic
serpent dart up from the deep and wind
itself around M of the whales, could it
be said that these old Gamer were de-
ceivcd by an optical delusion? /,
wrapped two mighty coils around the
whale, and the struggle was of con.
siderable duration.

Needles Newell News.

Well, we havn't had quite as much rain
this week as usual-only one inch. IT. as
have often heard it said, zone extreme
follows another" we will have long dry
spell in the by and by, aud our farmers
for rain will be heard to sigh.
In this, like every other community I
have heard from, there is steady demand
for garden seed and pigs.
The major portion of our populace
switched off on their gardens and truck
patches for awhile this week. We our
selves gardened little-just little
nailed on few pailings. We heard one
fellow remark, however, that he didn't
think it hardly worth while for him to
raise any vegetables this year, as meat had
got so high he could only keep little for
soning" didn't satiate from hardly.
AS general thing our farmers turned
new leaf at the beginning of this year,
and the first thing manifested thereon was
that they were going to raise their own
supplies. If they will just be careful now
and not blot it it will be page Of their
history that will be pleasing to behold,
and one to which they can point with
pride few years hence.
I haYn't as yet been able to ascertain
whether the acreage of cotton in this Sec
ton will be increased or reduced, but
trust that the brethren will make a reduc-
ton. Allow me to quote few lines of
"young American in parsing." and you
have my reason: Teacher-"Parse corn."
Pupil-"Corn is an uncommon noun, be-
cause farmers have we'll nigh quit raising
It,. It is used as an adjective, and belongs
to Tennessee, Ohio and Kentucky. When
parsed as noun it is in the objective case
aud governed by cotton Teacher Sit
down, SIR" Teacher-"Next, parse cot
ton" Pupil-"Cotton is a royal noun of
the starving gender" Teacher Listen
but only over the Southern people,.
Starving gender, cause it has we'll nigh
starved out the South In tie objective
case and governed by lazy freedmen" !"
Let us turn our attention to our farms,
substitute large corn cribs aud smoke
houses for the little so-calied things that
are stuck about in the corners. We can
do it if we will only try. Not until We do
do something of this kind will we have re.
form with tho big r to it. What are we
waiting for? Cleveland and Tillman are
not going to regulate our farms, nor the
Legislature is not going to enact a bill
forcing money into our pockets. No, no,
we are the ones that have to see to this,
and am sure that 1t is not too soon for US
to commence prospecting.
The following conversation was over
heard by this writer few days ago
Hello, neighbor, are you going to mar
ket?' "Yes, sir' "Well, will you
bring back a dollars worth of bacon for
rue.'' "Yes Hold on then until get
something for you to put it in" mo.
no you needn't get anything I'll just put
1t in my vest pocket"

Barnes Items.

AS Uncle Grace is off snl gone and it is
not likely that any one else will send you
the news from this place, Mr.. Editor, l
will try my hand for one time.
The weather has been so unfavorable
this Spring we farmers have not done as
much in the way of preparing our lands
as we intended, but if nothing wors"
comes than has already come, we hope
to get there all the same.
We have had several new visitors in
our community in the past few days, and
some very serious happenings.
Mrs. Avery met with the bad luck o.!
losing her barn by fire on the 4th Of this
month, and Mrs. w. 4. Hall has been
very sick for five or six days, but we are
glad to learn that she is thought to be
better this morning. We hope to hear Of
her speedy recovery
Our town was cox orably alarmed on
last Sunday by mad> which bit half
dozen or more dogs, an me OF our
neighbors were very mucl.- frightened
by its getting into the house with three
ladies and biting little pet dog. The
ladies made their escape by gctting up.on
the bed until it went out. The mad dog
was killed by the tain in the evening.
There were half dozen dogs killed on
and we would advise any and all parties
that have dogs that have been bitten to
kill them as soon as possible. While
know it looks cruel to kill an innocent
dog, vet we must do it in self-delence.
Better give up all the dogs than to loose
human life, and we would further
advise any and all who have dogs that
have not been bitten and want to keep
them to securely fasten them up In their
kennels, for the citizens of Barnes are not
on friendly terms with dogs at this time.
We regret very much that we will have
to loose one of our neighbors in a few
days, and we are very uneasy for fear OF
loosing others, as we have already heard
some OF the young men say they would
be very apt to follow. AS we are in sym
pathy with the boys we will not call their
names. But if anybody wants to know
any more about it Just ask Miss Lille.
Well, Mr.. Editor, as frying chickens,
seed potatoes, milch COWS, and pigs, as
well as young ladies, are in demand, If
you hear of anybody that has any to dis
pose Of in any way you will please inform
us.
Our school is in charge OF Mr.. Hucka-
bee. of Lowndesville. He has large
school and understands just how to
manage his business. He can also give
uncle Dave good advice. Uncle Dave is
a good -natured fellow, and takes Joke.
MIR. w. R. Evans who was with US last
week has returned to his place of bust
ness.
Mr.. ]. T. Morgan is having barn
built. Mr.. J. A. Brown has the contract
and is at work at this time.
Mr.. S. A. Norge :, who is at work with
saw mill below Lowndesville, came
home to see his mother last Saturday
night and went to see his girl Sunday
and returned to his work Monday.
Well, as fortune-telling has become
fashionable, must quit ard go and get
my fortune told. CAROLINE.

The Mutual Life Insurance Company

The Mutual Life Insurance Company
of New York completed the Fjftieth year
of its existence on February 1st, 1893, and
celebrates the jubilee year with report
marvellous for the immensity of the busi-
ness transacted. The report for 1892,
which will be found in another column,
demonstrates the increasing popularity Of
the Mutual Life and the extension of the
benefits conferred upon those fortunate
enough to hold its policies. The assets
now amount in the aggregate to S175.OS4
156 6l, and the liabilities to $l59, 9,9l5, ,922.67.
The surplus fund for the payment of divi-
dends and to insure the policy-holder
against every emergency amounts to $l5,-

are the agents of this Company in Ander-
son.
The Essley correspondent of the Green

Township, Anderson County, Miss Adds
Pi,kens to Charles N. Wyatt, OF Easley.
The marriage service wns performed by
the Rev. N. G. Ballenger, in the presence
of a host Of friends and relatives Of the
contracting parties, after which the COM
pany was invited to the dining room
where was found table laden with all the
delicacies appropriate to such an occas. on.
The bride is one of the most charming
young ladies In Anderson County, and
the groom is one of the most popular and
successful young physicians in the Pied
mont section. They both have the con-
gratulations and best wishes of legion of
friends. Many costly presents were given

The County Board of Equalization met
in the Court House yesterday for the pur-
pose of performing the duties required of
it by law. The Board consists of seven:
teen members, composed of the Chairmen
OF the Township Boards Of Assessors. Mr..
w. T. McGill was made Chairman of the
County Board, and therefore be will BIZ
the Anderson mem ber of the State Board
of Equalization. The Township Boards
have raised returns in many instances,
thereby endeavoring to get all assessments
on basis of two thirds valuation. The
whole time of the Board on yesterday was
consumed in hearing appeals from the de-
cisions of the Township Boards, which
were very numerous, and the Board will
meet again Friday next to pass upon the
appeals. The decisions of the County
Board are not final, for by recent acL Of
the Legislature the Auditor has the power
to make such changes in the figures as in
his judgment he may decree right. We
learn that ths returns made by the banks
were recon mended by the County Board
for acceptance. Only assessment and
equalization of personal property come
within the jurisdiction of these Boards.
