DeaII has again invaded our com
munity-remOving from the scenes of
this life three prominent persons, all Of
whom enjoyed the confidence and re-
spect OF the people.
COL. WILLIAM PROCTOR SMITH
The many friends Col William
Proctor Smith in this section, and, in
deed, all over the counr., viii be griev-
ed to learn of his death -hich occurred
at Anderson, on Monday last, after an
illness of three or fOu~ weeks. Col
Smith was born in Lew burg in 1884,
and was consequently 81 years old. He
was appointed as a cadet o West Point
in 1852 by Congressman Henry Ed
mOndSOn, Of Virginia, 2-i graduated
in the class of 1856. During our civil
war he espoused the SoUtar IA side, and
was Lieutenant Colonel Cn General
Lees staff-Chief of Eng leers. He
planned many of the fOrtiications tut
enabled General Lee to successfully re-
siSt the entertainments OF tie Federals
on many of the hard fought battleields
in Virginia He was in charge of the
Notifications at Petersburg when the
memorable crater explosion occurred,
and it was by his promptness in order
ing a battery to bring their guns to
bear upon the breach made by the ex-
piCsion that the Federals were driven
back with immense loss. Col. Smith
also took an active part in the battle
of Gettysburg He placed the Southern
batteries on that historic field, and, by
General Lees side, watched the famous
charge made by Pickett's division.
After the war Col. Smith was one Of
the engineers employed on what was
then regarded as great engineering
feat-the construction of the famous

CHRISTMAS EVE IN SWEDEN.

A Funny Verse With Each Gift-The Gin.
gerbresd Yule Buck.
Christmas presents in Sweden are al
ways distributed on Christmas eve, the
festival beginning with 6 O'Clock tea,
with cakes, says Anna Cronhjelm Wall
berg. The lighted Christmas tree is the
next attraction. Some one plays merry
polka, and young and old form ring,
dancing around the tree. On table,
lighted with numerous candles, are ap-
pies, nuts, raisins, oranges, cakes, can
dies, etc., in abundance, and, lordlng
the whole, stands huge Yule buck OF
gingerbread and Adams and Ewes arm
in arm. These delicacies having receiv-
ed proper attention and the lights IN
the Christmas tree having been extln-
guished, all gather around the biggest
table in the house, where the head OF
the family presidos with basketful of
Christmas presents This is the supreme
moment for which young hearts have
been longing for months, the well sealed
presents having gradually been accumu-
lated in mothers closet, where no curl
GUS eyes were allowed to penetrate.
It is customary to write some funny
verse on every parcel, which is now read
aloud. The opening Of the presents is
watched by all with the greatest inter-
est, as paper after paper is torn off in
feverish hurry to find out what the
parcel may contain.
But the basket is not bottomless, and
the excitement has an end. Santa Claus,
who plays such an important part in
America and England, is not known te
the Swedish children. However, some
one dresses up as the "Old Christmas
man. for the amusement of the chill
dren.-Selected.

DISTRIBUTING GIFTS.
The Spider Party VIII Furnish Much
Amusement For Christmas.

The Spider Party VIII Furnish Much
Amusement For Christmas.
A "spider party is a novel method
of giving presents at Christmas to chill
dren and may be thus arranged: The
guests, on arrival, are greeted by an
enormous spider in the center of huge
web spun across the entire room, and
from all possible nails and projections
should be a maze Of white cotton
threads, each attached at one end to a
large, brightly colored spider, at the
end of which must be hung little
wooden winder. Each guest, in turn,
chooses one of the spiders, and, wind
ing up the thread, following all its in
tricacies, reaches at last a special insect,
inside of which has been placed the
small present.
Great amusement is produced by these
unexpected finds, which may be varied
according to the wishes of the hostess
from bonbons and knickknacks or small
toys to little articles of jewelry, neck
ties, ETC. Of course, if wished, the
name of each guest may be written on
the little winders, so as to insure the
right gift going to a right child or
grown up person. Any one can make
the large colored spiders at home, OF
procure them from any large toyshop,
and when sending out her invitations
they should be so worded as to invite
her friends to "spider at home
party, which will cause much wonder
and interest to be taken in the approach
ing party by her intended little visitors.

The Knceling Cattle.

Christmas eve in old England was a
time of vigils. All were on watch, as
were the ancient shepherds, waiting for
the appearance of the star. This Gus
tom, to some extent, yet prevails in
places. One strange belief which Obtains
in England, and particularly in Devon
shire, is that at midnight, at the mo-
ment Christmas day comes to earth, the
cattle fall to their knees, as the legend
says was done by the oxen that were
around the sacred manger in Bethlehem
at the time of the nativity. Yet it is a
sin to look on the cattle while in this
position on to seek to find them so.
A custom which yet prevails in some
of the remote portions of the British is
lands is to carry corn cake and hot cider
into the orchards and there offer them
up to the largest apple tree as gift to
the king of the orchards.-Exchange.

The Bird of Dawning.

A popular superstition is. that on the
eve of Christmas the bird of dawning
singeth all night long to frighten off
any evil thing.
It was from this belief that Shakes
seeeare wrote:
Some say that ever 'gainst that season comes
Wherein our Saviour's birth is celebrated.
The bird of dawning singeth all night long
And then, they say, spirit dares stir abroad.
The nights ara wholesome. Then no planets

The Scotch Hogmanay

If you want to make a Scotchman' S
blood tingle, pronounce, if you can, that
outlandish word, Hogmanay." If one
attempt to chase this pathological freak
through dictionaries and lexicons, the
last state Of that man is worse than the
first. That way madness lies. But Hog
manay to the Scotch1nan is Christmas
and New Year S day rolled into one. It
is the 'richt guild willie waught' that
turns to revelry the last days of the
passing year. After Hogmanay, Sandy
drops back into his grim, industrious
life again.

Points ON Carving.

The carving knife should have ham
die easy to grasp, long, thin, sharp.
pointed blade and be of size adapted
to the article to be carved and to the
person carving. A lady or child will
prefer a small knife. Be as particular
to have the knife sharp as to have it
bright and clean, and always sharpen
it before announcing dinner. The fork
should be strong, with long tines, and
have a guard. Don't grasp it as though
it were a dagger, but let its hilt rest in
the palm of the hand, with the forein-
ger extended down its handle. Do not
seem to make hard work of carving.
Avoid scowling or contortion of the
mouth if difficult spot be touched.
Don't let your countenance betray the
toughness of the fowl or your own lack
of skill. Work slowly and skillfully.-
