WHO WANTS CORN:

We mention for the benefit OF all
interested that it is very important
when calling for certain party at the
'phone that the party calling should
give his name. To illustrate: On
Thursday some party at Ridgeway
called for Mr.. J. G.. Caldwell. Mr..
Caldwell answered, and the party
wanted prices on q lot Of corn. Mi.
Caldwell told him he would let HIN
know shortly, and almost in the next
breath asked him who he was, but the
'gooa-bye" had sounded and the "fe'-
low at the other end'' was gone. Mr..
Caldwell got his quotations ami went
back to the phone, but he did not
know who to make prices to; ne did
not know who to call, and did not
care to address his remarks "to whom
it may concern" SO he went back to
his office and watched for our reporter.
So the man who wants corn in Ridge
way will please cali and give his name.
Mr.. Caldwell has the quotations ready
for him.

A CORRECTION.

The Ridgewey Rifles were Inspected
and drilled here on Monday by Adju-
tant and Inspector lGene al John Gary
Watts. The company did not come
up to military requirements and were
fined twelve dollars for having their
guns in an unfit condition on-improperly
cleaned.
inr. Editor: The above comment ap-
peared in your issue of the % inst.
and is misleading as well as grossly
misreprepresenting the facts in the
case. The company came fully up to
every military requirement and was
complimented by Gen. Watts upon
the improvement made since last in
spection. Only one gun in the COM
pany was found to be out of order,
and Gen. Watts again complimented
the company upon the general good
condition of their guns and accoutre-
ments. The company was docked
S12 for the one gun out Of order, but
more especially to impress upon the
company the importance of rigid
military dicipline.

Have We Found It?

Our readers will doubtless remem-
Der that our reporter went out to hunt
the ssdark corner" in March, but 1t
vanished like a jack-o'-lantern. The
further up he got the further away
would the coner get. We'll, we have
it on the authority of Mr.. Thomas
Boulware that it has been located. He
is the gentleman who looked heaven
ward and described the rainbow with
the gestures of his arm when pointing
out tie dark corner to "cur man about
town." He came in cur office on
Thursday and his face vas cheerful,
his voice was merry, and he wore The
air cf man who vas guilty but who
had been found mot guilty" by legal
Jury. He said: "We!l, Uncle Joe
hewitt owns up to living in tile dark
corner. He says lie has fat mules, fat
hogs, plenty of homc-raised corn and
his wife has plenty of butter, eggs and
chickens, and that he lives III ths dark
corner"
We accepted his recital for the time
being, but We could see feeling CT
deep concern on his face. There was
an undue anxiety about locating the
dark corner at "Uncle Joe" Ne7itt's.
If Uncle Joe does not bear him out in
his admission it will be rather dark for
him. We do rot mean 10 doubt the
statement of our friend, but we fear
that he may have overpersuaded him
self because of bis personal concern.
He is very close reighbor to bis
Uncle Joe, and we hope for his peace
of mind that Uncle Joe will bear him
out in this gratuitous testimony.

CHICHESTER LETTER.

ToRBIT. May 21.-The name Torblt
originated in this way: Mr.. Thomas
Tcrbit (the late husband of Mrs. Jane
To:bit Of your town) owned mill on
Rocky Creek, ten miles from Chester,
and lived there, and for number of
years it was voting precinct, known
as Tcrbit's Mill box, but turbulence
among the colored people when rad;-
cals,n prevailed made it necessary in
rs to abolish this box. Some years
alter mail route was opened from
Chester to notwithstanding three
postof6ces Oh the route. Mr.. Banks
Robinson was appointed postmaster
AMI he called it Torbit. He kept it for
a number Of years. Mr.. W. 2. Cas-
ties. then living in this nelghborbood,
was appointed, bringing the postofice
two miles nearer Chester.
AT first we only received the mail
every other day, but becoming more
civilized we now get tha mail every
day, much to the convenience "f the
neighborhood.
We live in Cooterville just the same
but we hope our Fairfield friends will
not think we have turned to Rocky
Creek cooters, as we live one-fourth OF
a mile from Bull Run Creek and the
same distance from Rocky Creek, on
a high and dry hill bctween-eating
Strawberries evsry day.
Miss jamie Flenniken is visiting her
cousin, Miss May Hood, of Chester.
Mr.. C. S. Aldrich sold to butcher
hog weighing $50 pounds; also fat
SOW, receiving a good price for each.
Cotton is injured a good deal by
frost in this neighborhood. Cn last
Thursday We had a heavy frost on the
creeks. Spring oats will do well with
good seasons, and wheat is fine.
The fruit crop will not be so large as
we expected, but we hope 10 have an
abundance yet, if it stays on the trees.
With best wishes, R. E. B.

GIVE THE BIRDS a CHANcG.-The
boys around town are engaging IN
what they think is innocent sport.
They are taking the eggs from the
birds nests for the purpose Of having
an assorted collection. But great
harm will result. The severe winter
has destroyed many OF the useful birds
aud the boys are preventing the :als-
ing of others. There is no agent more
powerful IN the way of destroying
insects and worms which prey on the
crops, aid the effect will be felt it they
are moi allowed 10 increase. Think OF

was working, and got about two
miles away, but was pursued TOO
closely for final escape. He sold the
tolen COW to Mr.. D. II. Stevenson,
and Mr.. Shelton was lucky in this re-
spect, for he got her back.
