We were pleased while on this

at the beginning of the prctracted

of the largest country churches in
the State, having about 300 MEM

exceeding 600.
This is indeed a beautiful Sec
ton of country suitable for grain,
especially wheat. There has not
been complete failure in wheat
in Is years. The soil is porous,
quickly absorbing the water after
a rain. The climate is specially
suited to consumptive and asth--

seen seiglers instead of Aiken they
would have preferred to live there

permitted to mingle with and en-
joy the hospitality of these God
fearing people. J.iF. b.

to hear of the death of Mrs. F. w.

Tuesday morning of this week, after
an illness of some days. 1t WAS not ex-

soon, although there were complica-

Mrs. Pickens was a woman Of de-

At Florence on Thursday mig ht
Aug. 3, Herbert S. Ellerbe, brother,
of the late Gov. Ellerbe, was
killed either by the fast southbound
passenger train No. 35, or else by
foul play and placed on the track
to conceal the crime. The accident
happened between Sellers and
Latta, and was not known in
Florence until late yesterday
afternoon. A negro coming along
the track yesterday morning dis
covered the msngled remains and
reported his discovery to the agent
at Latta, who notified the coroner
of Marion county and J. DeJongh
of this city who investigates such
matters for the Atlantic Coast
Line. The accident was horrible
in every detail. Portions of the
mans body were found strewn
along the track to Pee Dee bridge,
and it is said when the train
arrived az Charleston some of his
clothing and part of the remains
were taken from the trucks of the
rear Pullman, car. The crew were
not aware of the accident until the
train reched Charleston. 1t is
almost impossible to tell how the
accident occurred, but from the
fact that the unfortunate
man had that day cold
tobacco at Lstta, the theory of
foul play has been ad vanced,
When found his trousers pockets
were turned inside out, and one
cent was found upon his person,
although it is stated when last
seen he had SIS. 1t might be that
be was murdered and placed upon
the track. Mr.. Ellerbe was about
25 years old and was unmarried.
The remains were inferred at the
family burying ground at Sellers.

A Pleasant Trip Through the
Philippi Section.

DEAR MR.EDIToR: In travelling
from Aikennosthward for IL or 15t
miles we fnd.sourselves at Seiglers
station, a beautiful hamlet, situat-
ed Oh the Cumberland Gap R. r.
1t is in easy reach of Augusta and
Aikec, the former a large city on
the Savannah, the latter beauti-
full little city which is the famous
resort of many seeking health and
happiness, and it seems that those
who once come to Aiken are als|
ways made sad when the time
comes to depart. The principal
merchants of Seiglers are Messrs.i
Young & Horton and Mr.. Salter,
and if our prophecy comes true, it
will not be long until it will be
dotted with brick Itores and dwell3
ings, and indeed be a town of.
which the people of this.portion of
Aiken county will be proud. In
this community, there are several
schools within three miles of Seig-
lers, all of which could be CONSOLE!
dated and a strong central school
established at the station. From
the talk OF those interested in edu-
cational matters, it seems that
Seiglers will soon possess a high
school second to none in Aiken
county.
In coming farther north We CROSS
Shau's Creek, q beautiful stream
running with great speed toward
the river. The water is very swift,
the banks narrow, and with little
cost q cotton factory or Touring
mill could be built and would
prove a great benefit to the owners,
and also to the farmers of this
section, which is well adapted to
wheat growing.
The advantage to any one wish
ing to build a factory are un-
bounded. There is plenty of gran
ite, mud, and pine timber, all of
which is necessary in putting up a
good building. This could be had
at one-half the expense required
in purchasing the material in
other places.
Mr.. Seigler has mill in this
community, and it is doing good
work. Leaving the mill we come
first to Mr. John Ripley's. Mr.
Ripley is not only good farmer,
but very fine horse trader.
Mr. Jesse Williams, q man of
much promise, the leader of the
Philippl choir comes next.
Also joining Mr. Williams we
find Judge G. P. seigler, whose
chief business is saw-milling.
Judge Seigler, also has very fine
crop. Judge Seigler is man who
believes in education, having sdu-
Gated his sons in some of the best
colleges IN the State,
Next we come to Mr. J. E. Tim:
merman's beautiful home. 1t is
presided over by his wife, a lady
of marvellous grace. The most at
traotive feature of this happy home
are those beautiful,little twin girla,
indeed the pride Of mother and
mother aud fathers heart. Across
the rosd is nearing completion a
large modern gin house. In this
house will be put one of the latest
gin systems which will gin and
pack 25 bales per day. The water
is brought half a mile at the rate
of 1000 gallons per hour by a hy-
draulic ram. This great gin: sys-
tenn is owned by Mr. ]. 2. Tim
norman and DR. X. II. Thinner.
