In MenOriam.

Brother S. G.. Barre was born in
Newberry county, near Pomaria, S.
c., December Is, 1914, and died JAN
uary Is, 1907. His father died when
he was only few years old. His
youthful days were spent upon his
stcp-fathcr's farm, until in 1862,
when seventeen years Of age, he en-
tered the Confederate army as a
member Of Kinard's Company, the
Goth S. G. regiment, and gallantly
served the cause dear to his heart.
1t was always pleasure to hear
him relate with pride and patriotism
his youthful bravery. He was wound
ed 1863. At the close Of the war he
returned to his native county, and
remained there until 1870. During
that year he moved to Prosperity, S.
c., and entered the mercantile ,busi-
ness, which he continued until 1886.
He was afterwards engaged in
farming and rural mail carrier.
Brother Barre joined the Prosperi-
ty lodge, No. 115, a. r. NJ, July,
1867, and continuously affiliated m-
til death called him to that celestial
lodge above. He was tyler of Pros
pcrity lodge for 16 years, which po-
sition he held up to his death. We
shall ever miss him as he stood to
guard the lodge of all impositions
He was true and dcvout mason,
whose fidelity deserves our emula-
ton.
Whereas, we deeply regret the loss
of our true and warm-hearted friend
and brother, and to whose faithful
duty as tyler Of this lodge, we owe
so much. His station stands vacant
in the lodge, reminding us that the
strongest ties Of friendship must
sooner or later be broken, but not for
gotten. Tn token Of our affections
and brotherly love of our deceased
it is hereby. s. f..
Resolved, That it is with deep and
sincere regret we chronicle his death
and tender to the family our sympa-
| thy and deep sorrow, and that q copy
Of these resolutions be sent to the
family and spread upon the minutes

NO SPECIAL COURT.
Judge Purdy Files Order Giving Rea-
sons He Cannot Hold Court AS
Ordered.

The special term Of the criminal
court, which was ordered by Judge
Purdy to be held the latter part of
March, has been called off by him in
an order, which Ire has filed with the
clerk of court under date of the 9th
Of February. The reasons for this
are stated by Judge Purdy in his or
der. ...-
No jurors have yet been drawn and
the witnesses and the litigants will
take notice that no court will be
held: .'..
When l ordered that an extra term
Of court he held at the time above
stated l "as advised that there would
be a very short term of the court of
common pleas Mt Abbeville, with an
interval Of two weeks perhaps, until
the convening of court elsewhere.
have since been advised that such will
not be the case, but that the Able
vile term of court will occupy much
longer time than was supposed, at the
time of making the order for the en-
ira term. 1t will be almost impos<i-
bic to sit continuously in court for
the length Of time required for this
circuit and add thereto an extra term,
and properly discharge the duties of
the office.
| have with great reluctance, aud
against the earnest protest of the So
licitor decided to rc:cind the order
for this etxra term Of court, and it is
50 ordered
IT is therefore ordered that the
clerk Of the court for Newberry coun-
ty and the other officers charged
Herewith, make no preparations for
such court, but that they rescind any
steps that may have been taken to
that end.

1t is seldom that musical comedy
takes such an immediate hold on the
lovers of the stage as Howard Web
stcr's latest production, Everybody

attendance that greets the company
in every city is only accountable by
the fact that the production has
struck the common cord i'll the heart
of the play-goer and is essentially a
pleasing production both to the ear
and the eye. Aside from an unus-
ually excellent cast and large and
efficient chorus, the stage settings and
electrical effects are to degree be-
yond the widest expectations in
sumptuousness and elegance. The
whole show from beginning to end is
one rapid melange of dazzling sur
prises to the mirthful tune of ploas'
ing and catchy music: Everything is
on a plane Of magnificence hitherto
undreamed Of in the realms of music
