not materially differ from that received

A Ouiet Election.

The annual school elections in this
city and South Canon last Monday were
unusually quiet and were devoid OF any
special interest, due to the fact than
on neither side Of the river was there
more than one candidate. 1t is doubt
ful II majority Of the voters knew
that an election was being held. and
this inconsistencies, coupled with the
stormy character Of the day. resulted
in a very small vote being polled. In
Canon City Mrs. +. A. Reynolds was
chosen to succeed Mrs. Clara E. Gamer
on as member Of the board of educa-
tion by poll OF fifty-six votes. In
South Canon Mrs. Matte Thompson
was elected as a mem Der OF the board
to succeed herself.

Y. M. c. A. Notes.

On Friday afternoon of last week a
base ball team composed mostly OF the
association men, played the High
School team a seven inning game. The
final score was 9 to in favor OF the as
sociation team. The captain OF the as
sociation team was not able to get
enough association men to make up the
team and had to use other men to fill
up the team. Those who play base ball
have still chance to play with the as
sociation.
At the mems meeting last Sunday
afternoon DR.. Harl spoke Of 'The Vital
Thing mot by might nor by power
but by My Spirit" The talk was short
and to the point and those present were
much interested. Mrs. J. E. Dye was
the soloist Of the afternoon and sang
two beautiful gospel songs.
Next Sunday afternoon the meeting
will he addressed by Mr.. L. d. Eichhorn
Of Florence. Mr.. Eichhorn will sing as
we'll as speak and all lovers of the gos-
pei story in scng will want to be pres

day afternoon by train accompa
MED by his wife. Upon arriving
here he took the woman into the
waiting room and leaving, said he
would return later, that he had
business to attend to. The con-
tdlng woman took seat while
her false lord took his departure,
and going out to the train and
crossing to the opposite side of
railroad re embarked, and when
the train moved off he was
aboard. His wife, who was a
good looking woman and appar-
emily very worthy, was friend
less and moneyless. She remain.
ed in the waiting room until after
night for her husband, but he
never came. Becoming alarmed,
she made inquiry of passers-by,
but received no tidings of the
man whom she had trusted. She
was in great distress, naturally
so, and a sympathizing workman
of whom she had made inquiry
took her to his home where she
remained until the next day,
when she came with her tale of
woe to the mayor, who was un-
able to do anything for her otfi-
claily, but taking her to the de-
pot easily secured by subscrip-
ton enough money to send her
on to the home of her husband.
When the money had been given
her she burst into tears and was
sincere in her expressions of
thanks.
We relate these facts to show
how heartless some creatures in
the shape of man can be to those
dependent upon them. This fell

depended upon, ought to serve a

Second Lancaster Church.

C' 'h 'hOhahdW dys rlSlu LulbOT
From the North Carolina Con.
vention | went, on Saturday, to
be with Rev. Il. A. Dabney and
his people at the Second church
In Lancaster. This is promising
work and | don't know when |
have moved among people who
are more thoroughly alive; and
realizing their privileges and re
sponsibilities, are pressing on to
the front. | went expecting to
be with Bro. Dabney at one ser
vice on Sunday and one with
Bro. Boldridge, but when | got
there the harvest was so white
that | remained until, Tuesday
afternoon, preaching to great
crowds twice on Sunday and
again on Monday night.
The Second church is a young
organization with over q hundred
members. Led on by their be-
loved pastor, who is full of ener.
gy and common, practical, hard
sense and religion, this church
has done work this year of
which they can justly be proud.
They have built a nice, new
church, costing some eighteen
hundred dollars, and which
amount except about one hun
dred and fifty dollars has been
paid, and they have paid their
pastor every two weeks, besides
giving something to the objects
OF the conventions. They are q
hopeful, bright, vigorous people
and the work is In fine shape. A
spirit of revival seems to be on
every one and on Sunday SIX
people united themselves with
the church. This church Is well
located in the new mill town,
which now has a population of
some eighteen hundred people.
The mills, two Of them, represent
a capita! of one million dollars.
The people received me kindly
into their homes, and with such
excellent help as Bro. Dabney, it
was an easy matter to secure
twenty five new subscribers. |
enjoyed this work immensely and
appreciated the hearty invitation
to remain a week and preach in
meeting. There are some noble
spirits in this church, both men
and women, and predict great
things for them. Bro. Dabnev
lives at Rock Hill and breaches
for them two Sundays in the
month. The people all seem to
love him dearly and he is happy
