Showing the Queer.

On Moniay ii was discovered that
spurious coin and bogus mill checks were
in circulation in Union. The matter was
at once investigated by the police and
the counterfeiter was soon treed and cap
tured, also the TOOLS with which he Was
carrying on his nefarious business. His
name is Sam Carter. 1t seems that he
had got hold If his tools from some source
or another and when everything was in
readiness he slammed sickness and staid
out from his work at the mil and KEEP

The Rev. DIR. billiard OF the Presby-
terian church preached at the colored
school house near here yesterday. He
Is an educated man and gave his people
some good advice. His text was John
S:l9. "Men love darkness rather than
light because their deeds are evil" He
said among other things that it was
bad sign for the future of the negro
race to see so many of their young men
on the chain gang. In fact the prisons
are filled with young men. Recently he
passed convict camp and noticed the
whole gang was made up Of stout, ro-
bust, healthy young bucks whose every
appear 4nce indicated that they deserved
better fate. But they had chosen
darkness rather than light and this was
the sad consequence.
Frost has set in regularly and the cot
ton will soon all be opened.
Many OF our TINES readers will re-
gret to hear of the death Of Mrs. Samuel
Jeffries, which took place at her home i'm

word or deed for every one. She counted
her friends by tho hundreds The poor.
needy and deserving were the objects of
her charity and attention.
Only such one when they come to
die can say with exclamation of Joy:
Live thou forever wondrous king!
Born to redeem and stlon to save.

And where's thy victory boastiug
