The Music Of the Bee.

The honey bee is an excellent co,
worker on the farm, even if he is not
absolutely necessary to the polleniz-
ing of fruits, The bee can be denied
many of the advantages it is claimed
to possess and still be worth much
more than the little labor required to
care for it. The music alone of the
busy hive compensates many for the
trouble it costs, to say nothing of its
garnered sweets, that make Of good
bread and butter a morsel fit for the
gods.--Midland Farmer.

The city of Houston Texas, on the

union in New Orleans, rendered her
survivors of the Confederate Army a
grand barbecue. The barbecue was at
tended by about three thousand persons.
A paragraph from the Houston Post in
regard to one of the Incidents of the
occasion will be read with interest by
Newberry people. Major Crosson lived
the early part Of his life in Newberry
and has many warm personal friends
here. The Post says:
A cake played a prominent part in
yesterdays festivities, and was one of
the prime agencies in keeping enthusi-
asm up to a high pitch. It was an angel
cake, and on its top was the Confeder-

very happy and well chosen words
Major Crosson, though 80 years of age
mounted the platform and delivered al
address of acceptance which produced

His comrades thought that he lovet

around all of them and hug them all q
once. 1t was the women, he said, wht
suffered during the period that the fir
brand spread it's devastation over the
southland. He pictured many incident
of the suffering and heroism incident
which brought tears to the eyes of mos
of those present. At the conclusion o
his acceptance speech he gallantly re
turned the cake to Mrs. Mayberry, who
in turn, presented it to o. M. Robert

seconds the price of ice cream went
skyward one hundred per cent. Ice
cream soda followed rapidly. Both got
there and stayed, and no amount of

THB JONES PROPERTY.
Movement Looking Towards Securing 1t
For Graded School and City Pur-
poses.

A meeting of the Beard Of Trustt es
of the Newberry Graded Schools, the
City Council, and the Newbcrry Board
Of Trade was held on Monday night to
consider the advisablity of purchasing
the Jones square in front of The Boun-
Diary street graded school building and
the Lutheran Church Of the Redeemer,
and improving and beautifying it for
the use of the graded school and the
city generally. There are many reasons
why it was desired if possible to make
the purchase at this particular time,
especially in view Of the fact that
several small houses are being erected
on the square.
After fnll and free discussion of
the matter a committee consisting of
Mr.. Alan Johnstane, chairman of the
Board of Trustees, Hon. John w.
Earhardt, Mayor, and DR.. 0. B. Mayer,
president of the Board of Trade, was
appointed to see the owners of the
property and to ascertain upon what
terms it could be secured. The COM
mittee went to Columbia and saw Asso-
ciate Justice of the Supreme Court Ira
b. Jones. Mr.. Jones assured the COM
mittee that it was not his intention to
erect any buildings which would impair
the value of surrounding property, but
made an offer which the committee will
report at the next meeting of the three
bodies.
Justice Jones offered the site to the
city for $4,000, and stated that he would
contribute 500 towards the enterprise.
A meeting to hear the report of the
committee and to determine upon fu-
ture action will be held at very early
date.

SUIT AGAINST ALLIANCE.
Hon. j. L. Keitt, One of the Principal Wit
nesSeS, and W. H. Hunt, Esq.,, At
t0rney for Defense.

Hon. Jos. l.. Keitt and Col. w. H.
Hunt, of Newberry, have been in Co.
lumbia this week attending the hear
ing in the case of H. E. 6Brookshi4e ct
al. VS.. the Farmers Alliance Exchange.
The hearing was brought on a COM
plant made by H. e. Brookshire, ask
ing for the appointment of a receiver
and the distribution through him Of the
funds, amounting to $4,000 belonging
to the Exchange.
Mr.. Brookshire, says the Columbia
correspondent of the News and Courier,
brought the action asking for the ap-
pointment of receiver and the dis
tribution of the funds, and the Alliance
authorities claim that they had pre-
viously decided to divide the funds, and
that announcement had been made that
the money was to be distributed through
the regular Alliance channels.
"lt was evident, through the drift of
the ross-examination by Mr.. Lyles,
that the effort is to show that Mr.. M.
l.. Donaldson is largely responsible for
the action brought by Mr.. Brookshire,
and that his reason for having the ac-
tion brought is to put in a claim for
about 81, 700, which he makes against
the Alliance fund.-
Hon. Jos. l.. Keitt, who was and is
at present one of the prominent men,
bers of the Board of directors of the
Alliance, was one of the principal wit
nesses in the case. Col. w. H. Hunt,
of the firm of Mcssrs. Hunt, Hunt and
Hunter, was prominent among the at
torneys opposing the appointment of a
receiver.
The testimony was taken by the
Master and referred to Judge Gary for
an opinion. There arc several gentle
men in this county largely interested,
and who will be affected by the dcci-
sion.
