Miss Lula Long, of Madison Springs,

community.
Mrs. McAdams and family, of Alice,
have moved into this vicinity, and we ex-
tend to them a cordial welcome. Mr.. b
is few steps nearer his best girl.
Mr.. Ransom was very liberal in Offering
Christmas gifts during the holidays, and
We will venture to say he will not offer
many more without being accepted.
Miss Matte Eskew, of Denver, and Mr..
Langford Humpston, of Tennessee, were
visiting in this part last Saturday night
and Sunday. Mr.. Humpston is one o!
Tennessee's most worthy young men and
we are wondering If any one of our South
Carolina girls will be so fortunate as to
capture him.
Many hearts were made sad by the death
Of Mrs. Lula Findley. God moves In 6
mysterious way His duty to perform.
Mr.. J. B. Gray, Of Moscow, viaited his
best girl short time ego. Though living
some distance from her, he can't see her as
often as be would like.
Messrs. Oscar Hembreeand Willie Eskew

Local editors are blamed for great many
things they can't help, such as using par
tiality in mentioning visitors; giving news
about some folks and leaving others, and
so on He prints all such items that he
can dnd. Some people inform him of such
things and others do not An editor
should not be expected to know the names
and residences, and it is frequently the
case that he is unable to ascertain them.
If you will make it point to tell Us these
things We will gladly mention them.
In a private note from our venerable
friend, Mr.. Thomas Burriss, Of Geeville,
Prentiss County, Miss, he says: "In re-
newing my subscription take great pleas
ure in expressing my satisfaction with the
paper published in the land of my youth
and early manhood. lam now in my S7th
year, in good health and am interested In
the people with whom I spent 90 much of
my life. I would like to hear especially
from all who yet live that remember me.
Will they not each write me postal card,
il no more. To hear from friends of earlier
days still affords me much pleasure"
Mr.. Burriss was bora and reared in our

Mississippi more than forty years ago.
Mr.. Burriss is a brother of Milford Burrise,
deceased. and has a large circle OF relatives
and old friends in this County, and we

Our clever, jolly friend, Col. Il. b. A.
Robinson, of Martin Township, who Is
one of Anderson County's best citizens,
Keeps diary of the events and happenings
that comes under his eyes, and Is close
observer of the weather. In speaking of
the cold weather the other day, he said:
"I think the 18th Of January lucky day
for cold and wet weather in Anderson
County. From 1882 to 1895 We have had
only two fair days on the 18th of January,
and they were in the years 1889 and 1890.
Everybody, Of course, remembers the noted
18th, when we had snow on the ground
four days and the thermometer remained
at zero for the same length Of time. The
coldest weather We had on the 18th was in
the years 1884 and 1896 and on the 18th
inst. But think January 13. 1884, takos
the cake. It was turn, burn or freeze all
day, and you had to be easy about it, too
came from Due West that day, and Hog
Skin Greek, on this side of M. B. Clink-
scales, was entirely frozen over"

From a Missionary.

Mi,s Mary D. Sullivan, who recently
left Anderson as missionary to China,
has reached Japan ssfely. A few days ago
her uncle, Capt. Geo. NJ. McDavid, re-
ceiyed letter from her dated December
25th. which was written on the steamship
the day before touching japan. We have
asked the privilege OF publishing the fol.
lowing paragraphs from the letter, which
we Know will be read with interest by
Miss Sullivan's.m many friends:
"The long letter bad intended writing
you while on board, telling you OF the
delightful journey We had across the con-
tinent to Vancouver, was only plan, it
seems. We left Vancouver on the 10th,
and out of tho Is days on the water have
had not more than three days of anything
like calm weather, 30 that writing has
been almost an impossibility. In fact, for
many days, it took all Of ones energy just
to "hold on" for this is the toughest voy-
age the good ship has ever had. We have
had the experience of real storm at sea.
One night We were tossed and rolled
around at such rate that We were in dam
ger ever moment of having to join In with
the trunks, books tooth brushes, and other
straw articles In their dance about the cabin.
But today is perfect day. We are near
ing Japan, Twill arrive tomorrow morning
in Yokahoma), and 30 the sea is as smooth
as a lake. am not cory that We did not
get to Japan for Christmas, as VIC had e1-
pected, for today has been happy one
with us missionaries. There are five
aboard.
"I am glad to say that was not effected
seriously with sea sickness. I have been
able to be out of my cabin since the fint
two days, after got my sea legs.
"There are thres hundred Chinese aboard

dred employed as cabin boys and servants.
It gives Us some idea Of the people with
whom we have to deal.
.All day We have been in sight of land.
1t 10 good to see the houses and trees, after
nothing but water. The islands in the
distance look like snow-covered noun
tains rising out the water.
"Your Christmas has just about began
now-may it be a happy one. write
only this short note now, to have you
know that Pm safe as far as Japan. Al
Shanghai hope to be able to write you
more fully. Please let aunt Mamie AID

Tell the children to write to ME, and

On Saturday last the Richlsnd
County Alliance held its regular meeting
in this city. It was the most largely at
tended meeting of the year. The all-im-
portant question of reducing the cotton
acreage was fully and freely discussed,
and while no definite action was taken,
an understanding was reached to adopt
the suggestions Of President Chappell,
which were to make the farms self-sus-
tanning by raising hogs, cattle, etc., plant
ing grain, etc., for all of the needs of the
farmers, and then plant whatever surplus
thew may have in cotton. The object is
to let cotton be simply supplementary
crop. They also intend to plant tobacco
in that section of the county where the
soil is sandy. The Alliance, so State
leader says, is staying out Of the cotton
growers movement as it is an organi-
cation of farmers itself and cannot afford
to take part in any new movement.-1he
State, Jan. 10.

 Progress So Far.

Meeting of the Association in Richmond.
 Progress So Far.
 Richmond, Va, Sept. 19.-At a meeting of the Jefferson Davis Monument asso- citation held this afternoon the presi- dent stated that a collection for the monument fund was taken in this city on the 3d day of June, resulting in sub scriptions to the amount of $100O or $1200 in addition to what had heretofore been raised. On motion of Judge Christian the president was authorized to take steps to collect such of these subscrip- tions as have not yet been paid in.
 On motion of General Wise the preSi- dent was requested to apply to the city council for permission to erect the mon ument in Monroe park. It Is desired that the fountain shall be removed to an- other site in the park and the monument erected on that spot.
 The president was authorized to ap- point a committee to report at the next meeting how the board should proceed in the matter of inviting proposals for a monument plan. Messrs Chesterman and Richardson were appointed com mittee, which is not to recommend monument plan, but to suggest to the board how to proceed in that direction
