spent the holidays at home.
Miss Lois Holland has returned after
spending some time with relatives at
Lavonia, Ga.
Our farmers have just finished SOW
ing wheat, and quite good crop has
been put in. We are beginning to
realize the Importance of making some
thing besides cotton. The cotton crop
will necessarily be curtailed, from the
fact that there has been an increase in
acreage of the wheat and oat crop.
Every farmer should look the situation
squarely in the face and set his stakes
accordingly.
Among the successful exploits of our
sporting friends last week we think
Mcssrs. t. B., j. R. and Paul Earle are
entitled to the blue ribbon. In three
days hunt they brought in from 30 to
so partlidges daily, besides rabbits

our short cOmings in the past be for

A Sucial Event.

One of the most enjoyable parties OF
the season was the one given Dec: 3lst

The spacious rooms were beautifully

Miss Li,la, in an evening dress of white,

der the mistlet0e receiving the good
wishes of her guests. She was assisted
in receiving 5y her sisters, Miss Maggie
and Mrs. Chess. Smith, of Easley.
With gay conversation, music and
games, the hours flew swiftly by until
supper was announced, when all repair
ed to the dining-room. There on an
artistically arranged table was spread
q royal feast Of all the delicacies OF the
season, to which the guests did ample
Justice. The cutting of the birthday
cake, which contained .thimb!e and
ring, was the cause of much merriment.
MIR. Will Glenn was the fortunate one
tn cut the ring. Well-we "don't
think" we will tell who cut the thin
BILE. After supper we returned to the
parlor, and, with abated mirth, watch
ed the dying of the old year and the
dawning Of the new. Then bidding
our hostess goodnight, departed, with
pleasant memories that will ever I'm
ger In our minds, until time shall be no
more. A GUEST. !,

Well. Christmas has come and gone
with all its joys and sorrows, yet we
have the New Year before us. Let us
strive to live a better life; not turn

our memory reverts back to the events
of the present year, we will not have
any remOrse at breaking New Year
resolutions.

housed and we'll provided for in every
particular. We asked one of the in
mates about preaching, and he told us
that they had preaching once a month.
MIR. King has improved the farm so
that it is second to none in the county.
He has 35 acres in wheat, and tits all
up, looking nice. He tells lis that he
makes one bale of cotton to the acre,
and raises an abundance OF cabbage,
turnips, potatoes, gO0bers, &c. We
are glad that the grand old County of
Anderson treats her unfOrtunates so
well. We are glad that she Stands

We hope the name will be changed

A great many w0uld-be funny para
graphers usually have much to say
about new year resolutions, and the
folly of making them, when such a
llrge per cent are broken before their
awaddling clothes are discarded-all of
which is entirely wrong and calculated
1, hinder many a poor fellow from at
last making an honest, earnest effort
to mend his ways. In our humble
Judgment it is better to resolve to do
better and fail, than it is to fail to
make the resolution. 1t at least shows
the desire to leave off some bad habit
or take up some laudable work, cou-
pied with determination, however
weak OF strong it may be, to execute
The desire. The value of new year
resolution, of course, depends upon the
will-power OF the maker, and we must
aimit that good resolution, based on
o weak will-power, and opposed by
previous perverse habits, is a rather
sllaky guarantee of future rectitude.
But shaky as it is, it is far better than

Slick Trait"r Captured.

Alex. Ramie, alias jim Williams, a
colored gentleman from Abbcville, was
registered at the Jail Friday and given
a room in keeping with the position he
should occupy in society. He reached
this city and MIR. j. j. Dobbins' stable
riding q blaze face, light bay horse
which gave evidence Of rapid and hard
travel. He gave his name as Alex.
Ramie and stated that his business was
to buy mule. Mr.. Dobbins suspected
that something was wrong. but. trotted
out a mule and soon had Ramie salts
fed, who, to secure the purchase money
gave mortgage on the horse. In
signing the papers, however, his mem
ory seems to have gone back on him
and he signed the name Jim Williams.
This was clincher, and in few
minutes Mr.. Dobbins had his man IN
the hands of Deputy Sheriff Rose;
After being arrested, the negro stated
to MIR. Rose that he had just bought
the horse in Abbeville and gave a
mortgage on mule, and as he had no
mule he came here to buy mule by
giving mortgage on the horse, SO
that he would have the mule it the
man should come OH him for it.

There is regular cat and dog hight
going on among the Republicans over
whether an extra session OF the next
Congress shall be held in the Spring,
and it is growing more bitter all the
time. MIR. Mckinley and the Republl-
can leaders in both Senate and House,
agreed at the beginning OF the session
that an extra session should be avoided,
if possible; but the men who want
financial legislation as soon as the Re
publicans control both branches of
Congress are working on Senators AID
Representatives in order to make an
extra session necessary, if they cannot
compel Mr. Mckinley, by all sorts OF
pressure, to change his mind and agree
to call one. Democrats are mot taking
any part in this wrangle, although
most of them believe that Republican
financial legislation atan extra session
would benefit the Democratic party.

The Columbia State gives warning
of an approaching scarcity OF corn and
calls upon farmers thus early to make
mp their minds to plant a heavy crop
this year. Various causes are conspir-
ing to bring about the predicted scarce
ity. The last crop fell short of what
was expected, q greater quantity than
ever before is being fed to hogs, but,
more than all, the European demand is
increasing at rate beyond all prece.
dent and expectation. Farmers should
make note of these. conditions, and
let corn have q large place in the plans
they arenow laying for another year.
