Pleasant Day.

The joint annual Masonic picnic of
Amlty lodge, No. 81, this city, and
Prosperity lodge, No. lis, was held at
Young's Grove, near Prosperity, on
Tuesday. Though the morning was
very cloudy and rain, which, however,

dinner hour, the crowd present num-
bered probably four hundred, and the
day was pleasantly ard profitably spent
by the Masons of Newberry county and
their friends.
Addresses on Masonic subjects were
made by the Hon. w. w. Lumpkin, of
Columbia; DR.. VIM. e. Pelham, Master
of Newberry lodge; Dr. C. II. Wyche,
Past Master of Prosperity lodge; and
the Hon. r. II. c.. Hunter, Past Master

tee, read letters from Governor Hey
ward, Judge Dantzler, and other promi-
nent Masons throughout the State, re-
gretting their inability to accept the
invitations extended them to be present
and to deliver addresses.
The picnic was the most pleasant and
the attendance the largest in the lis
tory of these annual Masonic gather
ngs. The dinner was such as might
have been expected near Prosperity.
All the good things imaginable were
there, and plenty of them.
Newberry county is a strong Masonic
county, and now has three active
lodges.

PROSPERITY'S OIL MILL.
II Is Rapidly Nearing Completion One Of
the Best Equipped Plants III the
State.

Prosperity's cotton OF mill is rapidly
nearing completion. The ginnery will
be put in operation the latter part of
next week probably, and the whole mill
will likely be in operation by the middle
of October.
The engine and boiler and all the
machinery for the ginnery have been
placed, and the other machinery will be
put in in the next few days. The build
ing is very near completion and will be
entirely completed as soon as the ma
chinery is installed. Work on the ware
house has begun.
The machinery is of the most modern
design, and the mill will be one of the
best equipped cotton oil plants in the
State. The building is of brick and is
constructed on the latest and most ap-
proved plan for cotton oil mills. Presi-
dent l.. A. Sease has personally super
intended the whole work.
The success Of this industry will
prove an important factor in Prosperi-
tvs material growth and development.
Under the management of the officers
and directors who will be at the head
of its affairs there is no doubt as to it's
success.

The Weather for AUGUST.

The meteorological record Of Volun-

no killing frost during the month. OBJ

hotter weather in August, continuing

to know. He says that August ii,
1900, had fourteen days in which the

May Have No Fear as to Validity
Of It's Charter.

Mr.. w. A. Dunn, intendent of IT,

torney General Gunter stating that he
had been threatened with suit in tho
courts attacking the validity Of the
charter Of the town if he attempted tt
enforce the ordinances Of the town anC
to put fines upon certain offenders. In
tendcnt Dunn asked the advice of the
attorney general in the matter.
On Wednesday Mr.. Dunn received q
letter from Mr.. w. II. Townsend, tho
assistant attorney general, advising
him to 90 ahead and enforce the ordi-
nances of the town without any fear OF
such a contingency. "a defendant
charged with violating the ordinances
of a town can not attack the validity
of the charter of that town.
Mr.. Townsend continues: "You
should not cease to attempt to enforce
the town ordinances because of an OBJ
lection to the validity Of the charter
being interposed by persons charged
with their violation. Should the char
ter be vacated or set aside it would have
to be done in an action for that purpose
brought by the attorney general in the
name of the State, and persons who
