SAY THEY'VE STRUCK GOLD.
"Nim" Sullivan, Of aresnYiiIe, Takes 0p-
tions on Large Tracts OF Land.

The "gold fever" has broken out in
Oconee again. The reports row come in
that MIN Sullivan, Of Greenville, has
taken u $4,000 option on the Townes
place, above Tamassee, known as the old
+. NJ. Keith place. 1t is said to show up
every evidence of 3. rich gold deposit,
and Mr.. Sullivan is working about a
dozen men every day, digging and blast
ing. to ascertain the extent of the gold
vein.
This place was worked some fifteen
years ago by Yankee prospector, who
was assisted by M. O. Craine, of the
neighborhood. Mr.. Craine says the
whole place shows evidences of gold,
and one particularly rich vein lies be-
tween small branch and Cheohee creek.
Mr.. Sullivan is looking after this vein in
particular, and it is ON the estimated
value of its output that he bases his
option of $4,000, which he says he will
pay in cash this week and have the
lands transferred to him.
Mr.. Craine, who is familiar with every
foot of ground in that aeotion of tho
county, says there 10 no doubt as to
marked traces of gold all over the whole
Townes place. Years ago 1t was worked
little and the dirt assayed, but he
failed to remember how its value. ran
per ton of dirt.
MT. Sullivan has high hopes for his
mining operations, and expects soon to
have large force of hands working
regularly. bf.g
We understand that there is renewed
activity also in the gold mining about
Pine Mountain, Ga, but have heard no
particulars. These mines have been
spasmodioally worked for years, with
results varying from unsatisfactory to an
output far beyond expectations. There
is no doubt at all that at many points in
the hills in this section there are good
mining prospects for gold and other
minerals.

Bethel Centennial hymn.

TUNE: "Ariel."
We praise the great and holy name
Of Him who kindled here the flame
That keeps our hearts aglow;
One hundred years have passed away
Since men first gathered here to pray,
One hundred years ago.
This house Of God was builded then
BY earnest, loyal, Christian men,
Their love for God to show;
And faithful servants Of the Lord
Preached unto them the holy word
One hundred years ago.
The rich or poor who hither came,
And some who were we'll known to fame,
Wore brethren here below;
They mingled here in Christian love,
Sang praises to our Lord above,
One hundred years ago.
Aud Bethel stands a church to-day;
Her builders long since passed away;
All earthly ties are riven;
Our loved ones cross to Canaan's shore
Yes, one by one they're passing DER,
May we all meet in heaven.

A warning to Mothers.

Too much care cannot be used with
small children during the hot weather of
the summer months to guard against
bowel troubles. As rule it is only
necessary to give the child q dose of
castor oil to correct any disorder of the
bowels. Do not use any substitute, but
give the old-fasbioned castor oil, and see
that 1t is fresh, as rancid oil nauseates
and has tendency to grippe. If this
does not check the bowels give Cham
berlain's Colo, Cholera and Diarrhoa
Remedy and then dose of castor oil,
and the disease may be checked in its
iIoipiency ana all danger avoided. The
castor oil and this remedy should be pro-
cured at once and kept ready for instant
use as soon as the first indication of any
bowel trouble appears. This is the most
successful treatment known and may be
relied upon with implicit confidence even
in cases of cholera infantum. For sale
