The M. E. Ladies Aid Society will
hold a business carnival at the opera
house on Thursday, April 20th. A
special musical program has been pre-
pared and everybody should make an
effort to be present as it is something
out IF the ordinary and should be pat
ronized.
Prof. E. Amherst OFT delighted a
rather small audience at the opera
house on Saturday night last. His
lecture "Sour Grapes was the best
we have heard and gave evidence of
deep study by the author -actor-Prof
OFT. The audience was very appre-
ciative one and laughed one moment
and applauded the next and was on
the verge of tears the next We
cannot but deplore the fact that so
few of our citizens took advantage of
this intellectual treat.
Anton Ronning, who was released
week ago from the county Jail where
he served ninety day sentence for
using knife rather promiscuously,
imbibed too much red eye on Thurs
day night and, by way of diversion,
kicked in a window of the Patrons
Exchange store. He evidently did not
! find things to his liking inside and
came out-by different window
About this time an officer arrived upon
the scene and Ronning is now Ian
gushing in the city bastile. It is the
opinion of the officials that Ronning
is not quite right in the region where
his brain is supposed to be.
Those who were not present at the
entertainment given at the opera house
Wednesday evening by Prof. g. E.
Ringer missed a treat, his pictures
being said to have been the best ever
shown here. Moving pictures, when
properly selected and shown under a
good light, furnish the very best of
entertainments and in these matters
the professor has shown good judg-
ment in procuring the BEST He gives
show we'll worth the money

Making Cement Walks.

Jos. Williamson, who recently came
here from Portland, has finished putting
in cement walks at the home of DIR.
Poynter and is now putting down
walk for the Misses Jonley and Trill at
their rooming house. Mr.. Williamson
has had years of experience in making
cement walks and he guarantees his
work to be strictly first class. While
the original cost Of these walks is a little
more than plank walks, they aresreally
cheaper III the end for when properly
made they will last two or three times
longer than plank and then they look SO
much better than any other walk that
can be put down. It is hoped that more
of our citizens will catch this spirit of
/ progress and have their old wooden
walks replaced with cement ones.

MENTAL anguish suits against the
Western Union and other telegraph
companies are just now about as great II
fad as the disease, appendicitis, became
II few years ago. The Anderson Daily
Mail announces that two "mental an
guish' suits against the Western Union
will be tried in that county at the next
term of Court. One plaintiff alleges
that "while his only son was on his way
South from Dayton, Ohio, he sent from
lula, Ga, paid telegram addressed to
his father; that this message was never
delivered, and that thereby he and his
family were made to suffer great mental
anguish and he, therefore, asks damages
in the sum of 1906 1t would be inter
esting to know whether the mental
anguish" was due to the uncertainty as
to tho whereabouts of the son or to the
certainty of the whereabouts of the 25
cents that went to prepay the message.

TO HOLD THEIR COTTON.

Farmers oil over the South are organ
izing with the Intention of banding
themselves together rs unit in the
effort to hold their cotton for fair and
living price. In South Carolina meetings
have been held in many of the counties,
and in others they are 10 be held in the
near future. The resolutions adopted
in the various counties vary in wording
and length, but incorporated in each set
of resolutions is invariably paragraph
in regard to holding cotton and reducing
acreage for the coming crop. The fol-
lowing resolution, adopted by the Flor
cnce meeting, is practically resume of
the resolutions passed by all the conven-
tions held:
"Rcsolved, That all cotton producers
6e requested to hold their cotton as long
requested to cut down the acreage of
cotton at least rs per cent, and also the
quantity of guauos for 1905"
There has never been time when the
farmer has had standing to his back,
ready to help financially and otherwise,
the banks and merchants and other into
rests of the South az he has now. 1t
speaks woll for the feeling of good.fe
lowship that exists between the various
interests of the country, and it is one OF
the surest signs that the farmer will win
in the end. Let the general spirit of the
resolution above be carried out, and we
think there is still hope for the 1904
CrOp and brighter Drospects i'm store for
