 A S0CIABLE.

At the residence of Mrs. Della Harris, on last Friday evening, Mir. and Mrs. c. T. Kennedy enter. tained a company ofinvited guests. The house was brilliantly lighted and showed up it's furnishings in superb style. Everywhere could be seen the traces and touches of delft fingers. At about 10 p. m. the company.was invited to repair to the dining room. where elegant refreshments of berries and cream were served. To say the company highly enjoyed these would be cold modesty. Even the classic nectar and ambrosia would not have added one whit to. the rich ness and daintiness of the'' scene. The remainder of the evening..was spent in pleasant chat and games, and not until after the clock "on the steeple" had struck 12 were the company conscious of the late ness of the hour. Thanks are due Mir. and Mrs. c. T. Kennedy, and Mrs. Harris for such q deligh tful entertainment,

MR. EDIToR:-I feel that l would be remiss in duty if 1 failed to tes- tify publicly my disgust and ab. horrcnce of the profanity-to say nothing of other objectionable features-in the Comedy, "Clouds," rendered at the Opera Hall, Monday night of last week, as part of the closing exercises of the Graded School. Its effects can be evil, and only evil, on both actors and audience. It would be mortifying to think that the pub lie demands this kind of seaso hing for it's diet. Will not our enter. prising young people, who cater for the public taste in their enter tain ments, so eliminate objectiona- ble features as to command the sympathy and support of the bet ter element in the community

Hinemon University School.

The closing exercises of the H. U. s. were held last Wednesday evening, May 29, at the Opera House. The exercises consisted of public debate on the part of SIX young men selected from the II. U. s. Literary Society. After brief introduction by Prof. Er. win, chairman pro. tem., John All len was introduced to the audience as leading disputant for the affirm ative. His speech was we'll re. ceived, and showed considerable le research and knowledge of the subject. Next came John Lowe, leading disputant for the negative, in a compact and tersely compiled speech. Then followed, alternate. ly, Sam Wynn, aff., Jno. Eatham, neg, Robt. Wilson, aff., Henry Cruce, neg, Time and space for bid an extended comment upon each speech. But suffice it to say; each did credit to himself, and ad. ded new laurels to the reputation of the school. The speeches as was said by the chairman in the beginning, were original, and en' tirely the productions of the speakers. Thelr efforts would have done credit to older and more experienced speakers. The annual debate, having been inau' gurated last year, will hereafter be looked forward to with great interest.

Eczema causes an itching so Der sistent as to produce; not only sleeplessness, but, at times, even delirium. Local applications will not remove the cause, which is i'm. pure blood. Ayers Sarsaparilla cures this disease by cleansing the blood and eradicating all humors. We were shown by Mir. J. R. Wallace. one day last week, some wheat heads which grew on Capt. w. H. Isom's farm, near Selma, which measured ' I-2 inches in length. It begins to look as if our county was going to develop into a frst-class wheat country yet.
 Drew County has a population of about ls,000 and has room for as many more, and then plenty of room left. It IS the best all round County in the State. Nearly ev- erything known to agriculture or horticulture grows to perfection here, and when it comes to stock. raising, no place excels it.
 MT. s. o. Huey, who lives West of this city, sent us sample of clay oats, on last Saturday, that shows up well for that variety. The stalks are about four feet in length, with good, we'll filled heads, and ripe enough to cut. It is claimed that this variety of oats is from three to four weeks earlier than the common rust proof. Mir. Huey sowed his oats the first of March and they were ready to cut the first of June. This is the va riety for this country, as they ma ture before the hot, dry weather begins.

Our fellow-townsman, MT. T. H. Matthews, brought us a bundle of his early bearded wheat, on last Saturday. He had just finished cutting, and old wheat judges say that it will yield from 30 to 35 bush els per acre. The stalks were four and a half and five feet in length and the heads were large and filled with the largest and plumpost of grain. There is no longer a question about the beard ed wheat being success in Drew County, and with the proper prep aration of the land it can be made profitable crop. Every farmer in the County should have a wheat field next year.
 Old man Sampson Bailey, color ed, who lived for many years on the Royal Lake, in the Eastern portion of this county, dled in Af- rica short time ago. "Uncle" Sampson was doing well in his Drew County home and had all the necessaries of life and many of the comforts around him; but dur. ing the year of '94 he took it into his head to sell out and go to Afri- ca, and early in '95 he left for the "promised land" We learn that he died in two days after landing there. Sampson was man who attended to his own affairs, and had many friends here, both white and colored.

IN A CUBAN DUNGEON.

Boston, Mass, June 25.-Frank
r. Woodward, correspondent IN
Cuba for a New York newspaper, is
in a Spanish dungeon for visiting
an insurgent camp. He Yves under
surveillance and tried to escape on
the British steamer Ely, which
arrived here from Banes, Cuba, but
the Spanish guards recognized him
and then thrust him into prison.
He is to be taken to Gibara for
trial.
Woodward arrived at Banes from
the interior June Is, the day before
the Ely sailed. His horse was near
ly dead from fatigue, and both man
and horse were covered with mud.
This was what aroused the Span
iards' suspicious. Woodward was
i'll also. He had a lot of notes de-
failing the strength and movements
of The rebels. The SpaniarIs took
them. Woodwa asked Captain
Donovan to Immediately notify the
press of tie United States, so as tC
bring his arrest to the notice of the
state department., for he fears the
papers the Spaniards seized Will bt
used against him. The Spaniards
it is understood, will charge him
with being d rebel officer trying t.
escape to the United States. Wood
ward told the officers there are IL,
600 rebels around Holguin. There
was rumor in Banes before thu
Ely left that two other correspon
dents had been arrested near San
tiago. The authorities have order
ed all correspondents to leave tn,
country Immediately.
