4 Present Picture OF once Famous
Woman.

In account, lately, of the marriage OF
Miss Bracie Bacon Cheatham, of Edge
field, to Mr.. David Irving Denny, we
find the following interesting pen picture
Of the once most beautiful and famous
woman in the South:
The slender, satin-robed bride came
slowly up the aisle, leaning upon the arm
OF her uncle, Col. James r. Bacon, and
followed Immediately by her mother,
Mrs. Kate Wigfall Cheatham, and her
god-mother, Mrs. F. w. Pickens. And
then was presented picture whose start
ling contrast made o an epitome of wo.
mans life, or at least of the lives of many
women. Here was picture which some
gifted artist might have handed down to
eternal fame as 'Springtime and Ashes !"
The aurora-like little bride, with the
love-light in her eyes, covered with misty
white tulle, that fell in billows over her
long white trsin-this was "springtime !"
The other picture was that of tall, pale,
slender, graceful woman, with sort OF
wonderful, but hopeless, stiffness in her
walk, and upon her wan but perfect Gre
clan face. Her veil was long also, but of
deepest black, and fell sadly and heavily.
ibis supremely peautllul anu Slteu WO-
man, Mrs. Pickens, has had and known
all that there is of earthly gran deur; she
has also had and known all that there is
of earthly sorrow. She is woman who
only smiles now to make others happy );
her lifes task has been in making others
happy. And to those who know her best,
the rare charm of that winning smile in
these days never hides its dreary, hope
less sadness. She is smiling or trying to
smile to-day for the happiness Of the lit
tie girl-bride, whom she held in her arms
at the baptismal font. Her own beautiful
Douscha lies in the grave with coverlet
of daisies

Not Our Fault.

While 30 far there have been but a few
petitions for divorce entered in the issue
docket of the superior court for the April
term. Augusta has in the past few years
gotten ascandalous reputation throughout
the United States for the size of her di-
vorce mill, and the frequency Of the
grindings.
It is a reputation not in the least to be
envied and one that Augusta does not
deserve by great deal. And yet there
stand the figures as boldly as though cut
in marble and then painted black.
Looking back over the past sessions OF
the superior court one will find divorces
innumerable, but if they will take the
trouble to look at the names Of the per-
sons interested, few of them are familiar.
In fact, divorce among Augustans is a
rarity, for married couples seem to live
in greater harmony than in any other
city on the globe.
The conditions are such that man can
scarcely fall out with his wife or vice
versa and 80 they abide together under
the happiest circumstances.
The above two statements made seem
contradictory to the last degree. What
then is the solution of the problem? Right
across the river is State in which the
laws relating to marriage are easy, and
yet under no circumstances can divorce
be obtained. Here is the primary cause.
Persons there marry, and marry some
times hastily. They repent Of their folly
in a year or so and seek release from the
bonds that bind them. They cannot get
it, and 30 there is but one course left
them.
In Georgia persons resident of the State
for one year can apply for divorce, and as
there are many conditions under which
they can get them, the unhappy man or
woman moves to Augusta, the nearest
point from most towns ofSouth Carolina.
After living here for a year they make
their application. The case then goes
through the terms of the court and 80 the
work is accomplished. II started at the
right time it only takes 8 year to So
through the three terms of the court, and
thus a residence in Georgia of two years
completes the release. It Is fact that
three -fourths of the divorces obtained in
the superior court Of Richmand county
are gotten by persons who are in reality
citizens OF South Carolina.
Unless the laws of Georgiaare so changed
as to make divorce harder to obtain, Au-
gusta is liable for all time to have her
divorce courts business swelled to an
alarming degree above what it in reality
should be.-Aug,tstG Chronicle.

COnfeds in Cuba.

s. KEY West, Fis,, Jan. 11-News has
been received from the Pinar del Rio
country to the effect that the "Lone Star"
com pany Of Texan rangers in the Cuban
army had again distinguished itself.
From the reports it appears that they de-
feated much larger force than themselves
capturing the Spanish captain and taking
aprovision train the Spanish detachment
was guarding. It occurred on Friday,
Judging by the date OF the letter received,
near Palacio, south of San Christobal.
a detachment of 800 Spanish cavalry
was escorting trainload of provisions
alopg this route when near that place
they were halted by sudden and fierce
fire from the hillside by which they were
passing. It was too steep to charge up
could. and taking shelter on the opposite
side Of the road. Hardly had they done
this when crossfire was opened upon
them from that side in their rear, the
Texans, who, by the way, only pumbe
slG0 men, ambushing both sides of the
road.
The Spaniards then retreated down the
road hoping to draw the Cubans out. The
Texans seeing them flee came out from
one side despite their officers efforts to
RESTRAIN them, aud with reckless courage
and shouts OF "Cubre libre," dashed af-
ter them. Getting them we'll out of their
shelter the Spaniards turned and poured
lin hot fire and then charged. The "Lone
Star" hoys met them and the shock was
terrible. Men were unhorsed, horses
thrown down, and men and beasts mixed
in one ineStricsble mass.
The second detachment of Texans came
at this moment, and the Spaniards again
retreated, this time capturing Lieutenant
Stone and placing him in thu rear to pre-
vent his comrades from firing on them.
The gallant Texans were greatly enraged
at this, and notwithstanding the Spaniards
greatly outnumbored them, charged up
with such .hsrceness that the Dons could
not hold out. They fell back in disorder,
and Stone was recovered Captain Pa
vinis, the Spanish commander, was
wounded and fell from his horse. He was
instantly surrounded by the enemy.
placed on horse and taken off the field
before his troops could rally and succor
him.
The Texans then returned to the train,
and taking possession of it carried it into
the hills to Colonel Rogero's camp.
Tents, arms, ammunition and provisions
were in the convoy. The Spaniards left
fifteen dead and forty wounded on the
field, while the Cubans had five killed
and fourteen wounded.

- We hope that no issue will be sprung
this year which will cause division of
our people. The general feeling now is
to pull together for the laying aside of
past differences and it will be our purpose
to encourage that feeling as much as pos
sible. The feeling of antagonism which
once prevailed is rapidly changing for the
better and if those who have been en-
trusted with our political affairs will
work for the making of good and whole
some laws instead Of manipulating for
future political advancement, we see no
reason why the white people of this State
cannot be reunited into one good, strong
political family. There should not be
any Reform or Conservative factions, as
both have filled their missions and are of
the past, and we hope beyond resurrection.

The EpWorth Orphanage.

A brother proposes to give $500 to the
Orphanage if 50, 500 more is raised at once
in cash for the purpose of building another
house
At the recent session of our Annual
Conference we succeeded in obtaining in
cash good subscription-all of this
amount, except S4G5. We must have
this S465 at once to assure the success of
the plan.
The same brother offers to give one
dollar himself for every dollar the Church
and others give by the 1st of March, 1897
up to $1,000. If we avail ourselves ofthis
generous offer it will give the Orphanage
a total of $1,000. Do, brethren, come to
our help right now, and let US work
while every dollar we give or collect will
be worth two dollars to US.

A journey of two weeks into the new
year brings us to the usual day of wor-
ship at the above place. having previously
unanimously elected Rev. G. Fl. Hollend
our pastor. We invited q presbytery and
expected his ordination on Sunday, but
for some reason we were disappointed,
and postponed until second Sunday in Au-
gust next. His first sermon on Saturday
from the text, "Worship in spirit and in
TRUTH" was high bly, enjoyed by the congre.
cation, and We hope made lasting impress
sions upon all his hearers. On Sunday
the Church was full and his text was
"Who is my neighbor ?" I feel assured
none who came seeking blessing went
away empty. Our hearts were filled with
gratitude to God for having directed US to
with the spirit of God and guided by that
spirit to deliver snch refreshing messages.
Our schco col at this place has closed, Mr..
A. w A'taway having to take possession
of his office. This leaves US without o

to teach at twenty-five dollars per month,

We say thst, as general thing, there Is
more corn and other produce, more fat

The sad news borne to our ireside by the
INTELL1aENCER of the death OF our relative
and friend, Mrs. Isabella Strickland and
daughter, touched the tenderest cord of

sad to part with our loved ones, but we
should be comforted when ne know they

they 20 down to Columbia. raise our taxes,
amend or endorse the dispensary law and
come home? Very likely. WHAT has be-
come of the great Reform party, anyway?
We presume the leaders have eaten it up
