Thursday night Of last week, in
Abbeville, lamp exploded at the
home of Charles E. Bruce, and his
wife, catching on fire, was burned to
death. Her daughter was badly
burned on her hands while trying
to extinguish the flames upon her
mother. There cannot be too much
caution used with lamps. They
should be kept we'll filed, wicks
nicely trimmed, and handled care
fully.

Il have tried DeWitt's Witch Hazel
Salve for itching piles and it always
stops them in two minutes. I con-
slider DeWltt's Witch Hazel Salve
the greatest pile cure on the market"

Capt. S. B. Jones of Spartanburg,
is recruiting company in that city
to be known as the Hampton Guards,
and now hes % men. It is safe to
say that 10 per cent. Of the whole
COMPANY will not be rejected by the
examining surgeon. The company
is ready and although gotten up to
90 into the service under the second
call, Captain Jones has rendered it
to Major Thompson to complete his
battalion and it is likely that it will
be accepted if those making the
effort do net hurry about getting
enough men. Ia the event of the
Hampton Guards going in with Maj.
Thompson's command, of course
Capt. Jones would be the command.
ing officer of the new company.
