Saturday next will be Christmas Day
and, boys and girls, while you are en-
joying the good things of life on this
occasion, giving and receiving tokens
OF love and esteem to and from your
friends, you must not forget that it is
the anniversary of Him who died that
all mankind might live, who, in the
lonely manger in Bethlehem years ago
first saw the light Of day. as the Savior
OF the world. Then forget not the
homage due the infant Savior and, like
the wise men of the East, bring your
gifts to Him, indirectly, by remember
ing the poor OF our community, who are
unable to provide comforts for them
selves. How many little hearts of our
poor children may be gladdened by
trffing gift from yoh who are
more fortunate in this world and
how little the cost to you in COM
parison with the happiness brought to
them. And best OF all, you will re-
ceive the appreciation OF Him who died
for us, who says: ''Inasmuch as We did
1t unto one of the least of these, my
brethren, ye did it unto me-" We each
one can make some one happy and be
much happier ourselves by doing this
instead of being selfish and morose.
Now, boys and girls, your ''uncle" will
close his chat this week by wishing
each and all Of his many nephews and
nieces merry Christmas and happy
and prosperous New Year.

Thomas last evening, was made the
occasion of the formal announce
ment of the marriage of Miss Mary
Adeane Wilkes to Mr.. Robert Lin
naeus Mckinney, on the tenth of
November.
1t was indeed a gorgeous function,
The decorations were from New
York, and the touch of skilfull fin
gers was depicted in every detail of
their arrangement. A most elabo-
rate and elegant dinner was served
at eight o'clock In the dining hall,
and comprised everything that
could tempt the palate or please the
eye.
Miss Wilkes exquisite brunette
beauty never showed to greater per-
lection than on this occasion,
arrayed as she was, in light blue silk,
over which floated the airy and
delicate folds of white organdie,
while American Beauty roses were
her chosen flowers for the evening.
The following were present.: Miss
Mary Wilkes, r. L. Mckinney; Miss
Greer, w. A: Dale; Miss Katie
Wilkes, A. B. Harlan; Miss Helen
Smith, ]. G. Dexter; Miss Bessie

gram, w. P. Ridley; E. C.Perry.
Referring to the above, the Nash
vile Banner of the 18th said: IAN
interesting bit of social news has
drifted here from the pretty little
city of Columbia. This evening Mr.
and Mrs. G. l.. Thomas will give a
dinner at their home in Columbia
the occasion being to announce the
engagement of Miss Mary Wilkes
and Mr.. Robert Mckinney, two
prominent people of Columbia and
representatives of fine Tennessee
families. Both are well known here
Miss Wilkes, since her school days
has enjoyed the deserved reputation
of being one of the South's most
beautiful young girls. She is of the
true Southern type, rich brunette
with dark, iustrOus eyes. The fame
of her beauty has far overreached
the borders of Tennessee. When in
Richmond year ago as maid oil
honor to the Confederate veterans
of Tennessee, she was given an ova.

SANCTUM SENTIMENTS.

where about Nashville and leaves
his money, When a young fellow
goes to the city and starts out to find
a place where hundred dollars
may be won in an hour or two, he
soon finds it, but the other fellow
does the winning. Then the Reuben
squeals and reports the case to the
police, who in turn put the newspa-
pers on to it, and the world wonders
why such young fools are not sent
to the Centennial by express like
other calves.-Pulaski Citizen.

IF will do Columbia no good to get
up a yellow fever sensation. Ru-
mors of visitors from infected dis
tricts, excited investigations, threat
ened guarantees, and all that sort
of thing, will have a tendency to
keep even our own country people
out of town and injure business ma
terially. There is no use for it, and
there is no sense in it. Yellow fever
is not dangerous in Columbia. En-
perience has taught US that. When
it was right at our doors, in the sum-
mer when Decatur was nearly de-
populated by it, Columbia opened
its gates and kept them open. We
should do so again; especially so
when we may safely count upon
frost in two weeks or less time
There is 10 danger here; nobody i:
frightened here, and no sensation is
wanted here.

COLUMBIA has arising genius in
the person of Miss jamie Trimble,
whose sculpture work has received
high commentator from so gifted
an artist as Zolnay.
With no better implements than a
wooden chisel made by herself, she
fashioned from clay bust of the
young Confederate hero, Sam Davis,
which Zolnay declared to be won
derful piece Of work, evincing a
high order of talent. The statue of
Davis made by Zolnay was Miss
JAMES model, and the great
sculptor, after giving it close
examination, declared that it
evinced the touch and inspiration
of the genuine artist. Miss jamie )
work is the more remarkable
because she is self-taught,
having received no technical in
structiOn in the art, but being guild
ed only by the tastes and instincts
of a born artist. She now only
needs careful training and instruc
ton at some good school to develop
into a sculptor of national renown.

Accidental Shooting.

A sad accident, which caused the
death of Mr.. Frank Lochridge, &C.
Cured at Spring Hill last Tuesday
morning at 10 O'clock. The unfortu-

was seated in the front yard of his
residence cleaning out double
barreled hammerless shotgun, not
knowing that the gun contained a
shell. The weapon was acciden-
tally discharged, the load entering
the right side of his body, just below
the chest, and going entirely through
his body, death resulting almost in
stantly. Mr.. Lochridge was 3;
years of age, the son of Mr.. Jane;
Lochridge, and was liked by every.
one. The funeral services were con.

A Columbia Lady's Work.

The Nashville Banner of a recent
date pays the following compliment
to a Columbia lady, which the
HERALD takes great pleasure in re-
producing:
"A wonderful and interesting
piece of woman's work was exhibit
ed this morning in the library by a
party of ladies from Columbia. 1t
was a copy of Zolnay's small bust of
Sam Davis, the boy hero of the Con-
federacy, made by Miss jamie Trim.
BILE, of Columbia. 1t is an excellent
copy in clay and is nothing short of
marvellous, when it becomes known
that modelling is new departure
for Miss Trimble. She has studied
art in the art school of Columbia,
but never received lesson in
modelling. The bust was shown to
Zolnay this morning, and that
noted sculptor expressed unbounded
admiration and establishment over
Miss Trimble's work. The very
crude instruments used by Miss
Trimble were also shown Zolnay.
They are two cedar sticks, which
she cut herself. He pronounced the
work most excellent, and after
praising it highly, wrote a letter to
the head of a leading New York
school speaking u good word for the
talented young woman, who, if
properly trained, will win renown in
the world of sculpture. He also
wrote encouragingly to Miss Trim
BILE.
This is the second person who has
been inspired to do such work by
Zolnay's busts, the other one being
Mrs. Layne, of this city, who has in
the art room bust Of Chopin after
one by Zolnay.'

SENATOR TURLEY has announced
positively that he will be a can
didate before the next Legisla-
ture, to fill the uneXpired term of
Senator Harris. Governor Taylor
has announced that he will not be a
candidate against Senator Turley.
Therefore, if Governor Taylor is a
candidate at all, it will be for the
long term, to succeed Senator Bate.
Senator Bate is an avowed candi-
date to succeed himself. Now the
next question is, will McMillin be a
candidate for Governor, or will he
run against Turley for the short
term.

YELLOW FEVER SITUATION.
1t Grows Rapidly Worse, and Stringent
Measures are Taken.

1t Grows Rapidly Worse, and Stringent
Measures are Taken.
The yellow fever epidemic is grow
ing rapidly worse. At Ocean Springs
and Biloxi the condition is some
what improved, but the malady has
broken out in other towns and CT
ties, causing hurried and general
exodus in some places. New Or
leans, Mobile, Jackson and Ed
wards, Miss, are among the unfor-
tunate places infected.
There are about forty cases at
Edwards, and the presence of the
malady has nearly depopulated the
town.
At Jackson, the business houses
have closed, the newspapers have
suspended publication, and every.
body has left the town that could
do so.
Stringent guarantees have been
effected, and in some places order:
have been issued for shotgun quar-
antines to be enforced.

Wiseonsin's Marriage Laws.

The marriage laws of Wisconsin
are wide open. Children may marry
children, whites may marry black
old men may marry little girls and
little boys may marry old women.
Everything goes, and the rivalry be-
tween thrifty preachers who make
the performance of the marriage
ceremony a specially is vigorous
and intense. Wisconsin is the
Gretna Green of the Northwest, and
its marriage laws are prolific of woe
and misery, of disgrace and vain
regrets.-KnOxville Tribune.
