EDITORS INTELL1GENcER: am nearly

much an invalid for the last two years.
During the last year have made about
twenty-five half.bushel handle baskets.

strength continues, make a few more il

It takes me about four days to make one,

the good ladies in the community would
like to have a small handle basket to
gather beans, or Irish potatoes, apples,
peaches, or other fruits, would like to
make few to hold about peck. AS
matter of course, peck basket would be
worth less than half-bushel.

Tribute Of Respect.

"Relp, Lord, for the godly man ceasetb'
for the faithful fail from among
the children of men," These words e4'
press the sentiment of all good people
who know William Dugan, for he was as
widely loved as he was known. Born in
Anderson County in 1860, he was reared
by pious parents, and from his very
childhood exhibited those noble and love
ly traits of character which we're fully de-
veloped with his manhood. At his 10 neral
which took place at Shady Grove Baptist
Church January Goth, 1894, among the
many who stood round, could be heard.
on every side, expressions relating to his
superior worth and regret at bis being
taken away. Shady Grove Church must
deeply feel his loss, for no one had its
welfare more at heart than did he. He
Joined this Church in the year 1887, and
soon after was married to Miss Fannie
Aoker, who, with three small children,
survive him, and must now experience
the hardships that necessarily follow
widow and orphan-hood. :. During hif
life they knew no care, for the patient
kindness which he showed In his family
it is said, WAS never surpassed. He leaves
three brothers, the rest Of bis family hav'
ing preceded him to the spirit land,

Reduced Freight Rates.
AUGUSTA. Ga. January IS, IS!

AUGUSTA, Ca, January lS, 1894.
To the Merchants AID Farmers Located
Along the Line Of the Port Royal G YES
tern Caroline Ra:l,Uay: It gives me
pleasure to notify you that on and after
February LIST, 1894, marked reduction
will be made in rates from all Western
points to Port Royal & Western Carolina
Railway local stations. This reduction In
freight rates places your station on q
parity with other points in upper Caro-
lima, and you will now have as low rates
from the West as any point on any of the
Railroads in your section Of the State.
It should enable you to largely extend
your trade This can now be done with
confidence, knowing that no other town
enjoys better freight rates than yours.
You have always possessed equal rates
from Charleston, Savannah and Eastern
cities, with adjacent stations on other
roads, and this reduction in the Western
rates puts you on perfect equality.
On the same date reduction in rates
from Virginia Cities will also occur.
There is, therefore, no reason why you
should not largely increase the trade in
your section, and trust that you will
mutually aid Us in building up this line
aud the country adjacent to 1t.

A meeting of the Anderson County
Farmers Mutual Insurance Association
was held in the Court House Tuesday.
Harmon, the State Manager of the Asso-'
citation, was present, and addressed the
meeting. Several of the members of the
Association made short talks, but 1t was
very evident that all of them were not
pleased with the management OF the Or
Ranizstion. There are two or three
claims that have not been paid by the As
sociation, and large number of the policy
holders say they will not pay their assess
ments. They claim that they were in
duced to become members of the orgaDi-
cation by Misrepresentation, etc. Several
motions were made as to basis of settle.
meut of the unpaid claims, but after some
debate these motions were voted down. A
motion was then made that the organiza-
tion disband and the meeting adjourn.
which was adopted almost unanimously.
It is the opinion now that the matter will
go into the Courts for settlement. It is
hard to foretell what the result will be,
but it is tho opinion of some of the law
yers that the policy holders, under the
contract which they signed, will have to
nav their assessments until they have
given the thirty days notice (as required
by the policy contract) that they desire to
withdraw from the Association.

arms. He noticed that she had the white.
firm flesh Of little child. VioletS were
in her hair tonight and at her throat. He
drank in their perfume as some men
drink wine. Then suddenly he leaned
over toward her, looked into her eyes
and deliberately took the vi0Iets from her
dress. The soft resting place where their
sweet weight had lain nuttered a little
under the white lace. Nothing was said.
Moonlight around and above them and
no sound save the plaSh of the water
against the sides of the boat. And he
kissed her-Only once. And this was
June. and that had been January, yet she
still wore viOlets.
Summer waXed and waued. Days de-
creased and grew shorter. Love burned
now with steady flame.
One day she found it all out. 1t was in
late October. The autumn woods were
brown and ScrC and the dry leaves made
a mournful rustIing under her feet. In
her sweet small hands she hello a letter,
numbers of closely written sheets, in
which he lay bare his life and hrart-the
heart which had never beaten for anv
woman save her. And a great despair
came over her. for out Of the letter fell
little bunch Of faded viOletS. He had no
right TO them. he said. She put them
she was. She laid them on the grave of
her dearest hopes and smiled wan little
smile-She loved them still--vioIets.
Time went OH, as time is apt to do. He
did his duty to God and man-but it was
dreary work. Each morning on the desk

her favorite flowers. They helped him
to live as she would have had him II,
Ihere were hours in the night when he
abandoned himself to grief and despair,
yet when morning broke ne always saw
hopes pale but luminous star shining on
mes horizon. He knew that she loved
him alwayS-the woman. God bless her,
who wore the violets.
She lived on from day to day such
pure, fresh life-SO sweet, so full of pur-
pose and honesty, and yet so broken.
such sad life for one SC young, so en-
dowed. January came again. She was
fading like her viOletS. No one saw how
low the flame of life nickered. Day by
day 1t grew fainter, but sweet-alwayS
sweet. lie sent her violetS nowhere
was no wrong. She was dying.
One day they sent for him. He came.
wild with grief and sorrow, yet not for
getting to bring her fragrant. tender
vioets. And she smiled at him once. her
slow, loving smile that meantfntlniteIT
more than other wOmen;S smiles. Onlv
once he kissed her. And so she died.
with love OH lips and violets-his vioIets
in her two childish hands.
June again-a June night. A man is
making his way up the hill in the mellow
moonlight which falls softly over Gods
acre" His hands is filled with vioIets,
Their odor fills the balmy summer air
with sad and passionate incense. Moth
ing but a cross of purest white marble
marks the spot where she is resting, his
fair, pure irllOve-the only thing he
ever wOrshipped! And, standing there
above the place where she sleeps-the
sleep that knows no waIking-he repeats
softly and reverentally 10 himself:
And from her fair and unpolIuted flesh
