GREAT DAYS SHOPPING.
SATURDAY BUSINESS REACHED
 HIGH WATER MARK.
Streets Were Crowded, Stores Were damned and Even the Fakirs Did a Record Business.

Record HusiDesss
 Saturday was a great day for Christ mas shopping. The weather was ideal for people of all ages getting around. In fact. if the local merchants could have ordered the weather made for them it could not have been pleasanter than that dished out to them by the weather clerk on Saturday. From ear ly morning the stores took on busy aspect, and by evening the streets were crowded by thousands of people, who were out with filled purses bent on spending their contents in the hopes of being able to make their friends happy on the coming Christmas morn. There were many sights to attract their notice as they Wended their way through the crowded streets. There were the gilt tering windows of the many jewelry stores filled with attractive presents; the beautiful and gorgeous display of useful as well as ornamental presents shown in the big store windows. Then there was the man at the corner with the holly and mistletoe, while red car nations were also offered and found a ready sale. Then there was the fakir man with all kinds of wound-up toys which were made to do wonderful evo- lutions at the street corners, and which seemed to find ready sale.
 But it was in the large department stores where the crowd surged and seemed to vie with each other in get ting rid of their cash. From observa- tions made during the day it was mo- ticed that the majority of people were purchasing what might be termed use full and sensible4 presents-things that were either wearable or of such a na- ture that they could be put to some use by those who were fortunate enough to receive them. Gloves found ready sale, while ladies' neckwear and um- brellas came in for a big share of at- | tention.
 Reports indicate that should the weather keep up during the week the merchants will have the largest Christ mas business for many years.

\ Rev William T. Hill has been suf- fering with neuralgia grip for the past three weeks at his home in Howe street. 1t is interesting to note that the same characteristics which mark this disease in London this winter, that is, acute pains in brain and face and teeth, are present in this country. It has shown itself recently in New York and Phila- delphia, and is an unwelcome visitor.

Gibson-Clyburn.
On Thursday, July 20tb, at
$50 p. NJ, there will pe quiet
home wedding in Atlanta in which
Edgefeld feels th4 keenest inter-
est. On this date Miss Louise Holt
Gibson, the only daughter of Mrs.
S. B. Gibson, will be married to
Mr.. William Clyburn who was
formerly from Kershaw, S. c.
The marriage will be solemnized
at the home of the brides mother.
10 Woodward Ave, only q few
near relatives and friends being
present. The cermony will be per-
formed by Rev. T. H. Gibson,
a cousin of the bride.
Miss Louise spent the happy
days of childhood and girlhood
in our town, where she was uni
versally beloved. Her hundreds
of Edge6eld friends still have an
abiding affection for her, and ex-
tend congratulations in advance
with the wish that her future be
one of unalloyed happiness.

A great many farmers are more

A great many farmers are more
alarmed over the fact that cotton
is blooming near the top than
they are over he ''leak" in the
agricultural department. Quite a
number of farmers have called
our attention to the height of
cotton blooms from the ground,
expressing the belief that the
"bottom" crop will be very light.
Did you ever before see cotton
bloom in the top early i'll July?
On Saturday last our town was
thoroughly alive with dozens of
the pretty young teachers who had
just completed the months course
at the summer school. They were
hurrying hithor aud thither, shop
ping and bidding adieu to friends
before departing for their homes.
We shall, greatly miss these young
ladies, also young Pat Bussey who
was the only male teacher, if we
have been correctly informed, in
attendance upon the summer
school. Young Mr.. Bussey is a
most exemplary young man, and
fortunate indeed will be the pa
irons who secure his service as
teacher.

To-day at Fort White, Fla, a

active and useful pastor il this

We can scarcely realize that our
esteemed young friend is married,
being only few years a student
of .he S. C. C. I. He is now a
full ssfledged physician, having
graduated in May from the Geor-
gia Medical college. His bride is
a very accomplished young, lady
and will be a valuable acquisition

Words Fifty Spoken.

Rev. B. J. Woodward, Of North
Augusta. who preached two very
able sermons from the Baptist
pulpit on Sunday last, in speak
ing o. how utterly worthless are
some young men, by reason OF
their having been reared IN ease
aed luxury, said: "Tbe best
thl1sg for a young man is On
abundance of work and some
poverty. If you would make q
true man of a boy give him some
thing to do" No truer words
were ever spoken.
Next in Importance TO giving
the boy employment is making
the girls share in the household
duties and responsibilities. The
young girl who is reared with
idle hands, and later in life bu-.
comes the head of household,
the mother of a family, and is
totally ignorant of the euties that
devolve upon her in.that position
has our profound pity an, SYM
pathy. Parents, teach your chill
dren to do something whether
they have it to do or not

Testimony Of a Thoughtful Man.

A gentleman who resides twelve
miles north of the county seat said
to the writer a few days ago: ''If
we do not get rid of the dispensa-
ry I do not see whatis to become
of the boys and young men in the
country. A young man who likes
whiskey will 60 to Edge6eld and
buy half gallon of mean liquor
for eighty cents, and bring it home
and demoralize half a dozen boys
with it. Often they carry it to
church on Sunday and drink it
out in the bushes. You all in the
towns do not see near the evil
from the dispensary that we do
who live in the country. The old
bar rooms corrupted the towns
but the dispensary is corrupting
the country people," The condi-
tion set forth in the foregoing is
what this thoughtful and very
reliable citizen has seen with his
own eyes-not what be has heard.
Are the people of Edge6eld
county willing, for the few dol
lars that are paid into the public
treasury by the dispensary, to
stand ty and see the boys and
young men Of the country thus
debased and debauched We do
not believe that they are. Father,
who knows but what if this de-
plorable co ndition continues,
your bright boy will become a
victim of this forty-cents-per-
quart corn liquor. Aid in stamp
ing it out before he suffers from
its blighting influence.

Death of Miss Elizabeth Day.

Death of Miss Elizabeth Day.
Entonlbed in the newly made
grave in Ebenezer cemetery at
Trenton lies the mortal body of
Miss Elizabeth Day, where it was
tenderlY, lovingly placed by sor-
rowing friends on Sunday after
noon last. For many months this
good woman was a patient suffer-
er; but on Saturday afternoon
"There fell upon the house sud-
den gloom,
A shadow on those features fair and
thin;
And softly from the hushed and
darkened room,
Two angels issued where but one
went in"
The Day family in Edgefeld
county has always had stamped
upon its escutcheon the-hall-mark
of gentility, culture, refinement;
honor, lofty aims and purposes,
and not one word or deed of the
deceased has detracted aught from
this priceless heritage. On the
contrary, in her quiet, sweet,
gentle way she has given added
Iustre aud honor to the name
which she bore. AS a Christian her
life was singularly beautiful and
consecrated. The loss to her church
the Church of our Saviour at
Trenton, will be keenly felt.
The Episcopal rector, Rev. Mr..
Prentiss, read the burial service,
and, by special request, Mrs. R.
H. Minis, Mrs. E. j. Norris. Miss
Eliza Minis and Mr.. Geo. F..
Minis, of Edgefeld, &C .ucted
