Ice cream In a JitU

In teese days of hurry the inventor
must needs bestire himself if he would
keep pace with the demands of the
times. An Inventions utility is the
first thing injured into, after that it's
speed, if 1t is of such nature as to
make speed Il real consideration.
The inventor of the "Centrifugal
Ice Cream Freezer" seems to have con-
sidered these facts we'll, for this de-
vice is so practical in conception and
so thoroughly successful in the in
! stantaneous manufacture Of ice cream
as To commend itself TO whoever in
spects it while in operation. A quart
OF ice cream may be produced with
this new freezer in one minute. Ten
gallons may be frozen in an hour. so
conf lent are the makers that these
feats are possible, that they guarantee
the freezer to any purchaser.
These Freezers are for sale by
Mr.. w. ID. Lemmond. BY call
ing on him the above facts will
be demonstrated 10 your entire

On Tuesday afternoon of last
week, Jack Ingram, a colored
tenant on Mr.. III. II. Gooch's plan
tation was killed by a stroke of
lightning. He was plouehing in
the field alone, and the presump-
ton is that when the rain came
he left his horse standing in the
field and got under a large tree
near by to shelter himself. He
was found dead under this tree,
and upon examination of the tree
it was found that it had been
freshly struck by lightning. His
clothing was found to be torn and
scorched and some silver money
In his pocket had been sufficient
ly heated as to cause it to fuse
and stick together. Coroner Young
held on inquest and verdict was
rendered in accordance with these
facts.

Clean OUt Your WeII.

The Board of health has in.
structed the health officer to see
that all the wells in the cor
porate limits of the town are
cleaned out nicely by the first of
July, except such as have been
recently cleaned. In view OF the
fact that the rainfall of the past
few months has been very heavy
and that most of the wells have
had abnormal quantities of water
drained into them. and that this
surface water may have carried
the germs of disease into the
wells, it is important that the
wells be cleaned out before the
water gets low in them.
