A Charming Entertainment.

The Y. M. G. A. hall was filled to
overhowing last night with refined
and cultured audience to greet Miss
Adelaide Wescott, and to enjoy a
mythical trip through Switzerland as
pictured by this cultivated and tai
ented young lady.
The trip was supposed to have been
taken by three individuals, 'Aunt
Jane" "The Count" and Myself"
who were bent on seeing that loveliest
of all countries ies-SwitZerland, and the
three characters, were so artistically
delineated by Miss Wescott at the same
time that it seemed as though they
were actually before the audience de-
scribing some of the beauties of the
Swiss country.
All Of this was vividly portrayed in
the choicest and most apt style of word
painting that proved the charming
lady to he an artist of rare power.
Miss Wescott is an elocutionist of sur
passing merit and her methods are such
as to make her work in this line a
treat, if not genuine luxury.
To specially commend her, she has
been thoroughly trained, is strikingly
pretty both in face and physique, and
with a voice of musical tone and the
sweetest expression.
She captivated all whose privilege it
was to hear her last night, and gave
the city one of the most delightful in
tellectual entertainments ever given
here.-The State, December 2lst.

Up Town TeIeg, aph Office.

A year or two ago an effort was made
TO secure an up town telegraph office
for Newberry. Mr.. Cathcart the then
manager Of the office in Columbia
came to Newberry and investigated
the matter and at one time we thought
the Office would be established, but
soon the thing was dropped and
nothing was beard of it.
There is every reason why we should
have an up town office. The size OF
the town and the amount of the busi-
ness ali demand it. There is an office
1t Greenwood and many other towns
much smaller than Newberry.
When in Columbia or Monday the
.ditor of The Herald and News called
TO see Mr.. Gray, the present manager,
and he agreed with US that Newberry
was entitled to such an office and he
would write at once to the general
manager at Richmond and recommend
it.
He was told that it would be no
trouble to get a petition in New berry
asking for the office if such would do
any good.

The biggest snow that has fallen ia
many years has at last disappeared.
It lasted only a little over week, but
during that time the boys of this COM
munity lost no time in making things
lively. I am told that they had
bushels of fun up at the school house
snowballing each other. l suppose
there's lots of fun in snowballing, so
long as every one can keep in good
humor. ABother party of youngsters
hitched their nags to some very cute
looking vehicles and pulled out into
the road for drive while certain one
of the party riding "wee bitsy" mule
thirty years old brought up the rear.
The members of the st. Phillips de-
batting society met last Saturday and
reorganized. Mr.. J. J. Kibler was
elected president of the society. 1t IS
evident that our young men are de-
termined not to let grass grow under
their feet in the paths Of knowledge
and understanding, and it is our duty
to encourage the proceedings of those
young men in this most noble design.
No community is complete unless it
contains debating society, for besides
being very interesting entertainment
for the audience, it will also, if prop
erly carried on, prove storehouse of
knowledge to its members. Therefore,
let the young men and boys of every
community fall into line and engage
in the pursuit of knowledge.

VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
Young Mr. Rube Norman Dangerously
Injured.

Yesterday afternoon just before dark
young Mr.. Rube Norman, the sixteen
year-old son of Mr. T. S. Moorman,
met with very serious accident. He
was riding his pony in the eastern
suburbs. The fiery little animal was
in a dead run when the saddle girth
broke and the young man was itcbed
over the horses head to the ground.
The accident happened just in front of
the residence of Mr.. John P. Thomas,
Jr., and in a few moments the jnsensi-
BILE form of the young man was taken
in doors. ..
DR.. a. n. Talley Was hastily sum-
moned. He found MIR. Norman in an
unconscious condition and an examina-
ton revealed the fact that he had
struck upon his head when be fell, and
had suffered conclusion and compress
SIGN of the brain, the latter being even
more serious than the former. DR.. Tai
ley found it impossible to remove the
young man to bis home, and late last
night he said he was in a very critical
condition.
DR.. Talley paid another visit to Mr..
Moorman shortly before midnight aud
found him very much Better. He finds
that the injuries were not so serious as
he first supposed.-The State, 81.

Whitmire Siftings.

Owing to several inquiries from peo-
pie who seem to doubt our veracity in
regard to the deer killed by Mr.. B. Lee
last week, we would like to state that
we have since seen Mr.. Lee, whose
truthfulness is unquestionable. The
deer was killed on Mr.. Geo. Ioung's
plantation, three miles south of here,
and was branded sc w, which evil
IDENTIFY goes to prove that this deer is
one of the twenty that escaped from
the Vanderbilt place near Asheville,
n. c., January 9Th. BY calling on Mr..
Lee at his home on Bridge street the
skin can be seen. It is an unusually
large one and is priced very highly by
Mr.. Lee on account Of the scarcity of
such game in these parts.

That Awning Man.

Our cotemporary, the Observer, seems
much elated that.an awning mar, whose
eyesight is fading, remarked that the
editor of The Herald and News was an
older looking man than the editor of the
Observer. This editor is very well sat-
isfed and really glad that the Observer
man has been made to feel good. In
fact you know when people begin to
get old they are sensitive on the SUBJ
ject Of the number Of years they have
left behind them, and nothing pleases
them better than for some one, even if
it is through darkened glasses, to say
that they look young, or that some one
is older looking.
That part of it is ali right. But there
is one feature Of this awning business
that is very serious. EveD the carrier
Of the Observer, in his eagerness to get
the news to this editor of his aged ap-
pearance, as seen through the eyes Of
the awning man, knocked down our
front door and the shade which we
now have, and landed horizontally on
the floor of our Office some ten feet,
more or less, from the door.
And now the sun strikes US full in the
face. Surely our cotemporary could not
have been in league with the awning
man to make it a necessity for The
Herald and News to have an awning,
especially when it is aware OF the fact
that we have no mulberry tree to pro-
tect US.
There seems now no alternative. We
will have to have an awning, even if it
be from the awning man that pleased
the editor of our cotemporary.
