crowds which gather in Columbia fair
week. The day attractions on the
streets will be by one OF the best car
nival shows that could be obtained,
and the night attractions will be the
tireworks-the fall Of Pompeii-by
the Pain company, presenting ballet

two miles OF vehicles gaily decorated,
the procession being led by the king
and queen in state The coronation

AS SEEN FROM LAURENS.
The Laurens People Greatly Inter-
ested in the Politics Of New
berry County.

l,aurcns. May II-Thc personnel
OF the late county democratic conven-
ton was excellent. and to study it is
an interesting paStlmc to a Newber-
rian away from home, especially to
one who takes an interest in such
affairs.
1t can be seen at a glance that the
Carolina club and the Young Mems
club, of No. Township, furnished
most of the officers of the conven-
ton, and delegates to the state con-
vention
The convention could not have Sc
lected better committee to arrange
for the county campaign. and pleasant
days are to be looked for in the
good old summer time"

Sister-that the people here take a

correspondent is asked many ques-
tionS concerning the place and people.
Some OF them want to know if Mr..

Senator Mower would stand for re-
election until told that it had been
so announced. They take much in
terest in this race, many of them be-
ing personally acquainted with Mr..
Mower and Mr.. Bicasc.
Another race in which the same
interest is taken is that between Sher-

races are going to be pretty Am
