Death Of MRS. King.

Mrs. Amanda King, the wife of Mr..
Edwin King, who preceded her to the
spirit land about year
ago, died at the home of her brother,
Mr.. B. D. Clark, last Friday morning
in the 64th year of her age, after long
illness and intense suffering. All
that tender hands, trained nurse by
her side, and the care Of an affection
ate brother could do, was rendered
her, but the Omnipotent, who know
eth all things best, saw fit to call her
to join her devoted husband in the
realms above. She was of a retired
disposition, good woman, beloved
by all who knew her.
Her remains we're buried in the
Clark cemetery, about 9 miles from
town on Saturday.

Reunion Not Far Distant.

The time for holding of the reunion
of the Confederate veterans of the
State is not far distant, according to
the dates usually fixed by Gen. Car
vile, and it ispresumed that Columbia
will, as usual, be selected for the gath
ering in May. The legislature this
year appropriated s3,5 500 for this event,
which will enable those in charge to
prepare for a meeting on much lar
ger scale than ever before.
The citizens of Columbia, with the
aid of the Chamber of Commerce,
will begin their preparations as soon
as the official decision that Columbia
has been selected is made.
The general assembly also appro-
priated $3.50, 900 this year for the pen
sion fund instead of $225,ooo as here
tofore and of this increase S., 900 is to
be used for the purchase of artificial
limbs: The distribution is under the
direction of the State pension board

Gently added new preacher to his
family. He now has seven children
and his wife has six, how many do
they both have?
With few exceptions, this has
been mild winter. A friend told me
there were 19 days in January with
out frost. I was surprised. I thought
there would be nothing in the pastures
for stock after the first frost. But
where the grass was rich, stock did
well on grass until February this sea-
son. In places the stock actually

People did a lot blowing in January,
but none since. I have not; seen a
one-horse plow up here. Most of, the
blowing is done before the "crop is

the barn is broadcast, and the sod

You see nothing of man farming
with one horse.
We are in the fashion up here in
that colds abound. Horace was six
years old one week ago, and by re-
guest of the teacher, who is our very
good friend, we started him to school,
although year too young according
to Virginia law. But he was up the
first day making speeches that sur
prised the scholars. But grippe got
him, and he was right sick for two
days. AS the man who described sea-
sickness said, he had six meals a-day,
three down and three up.

8 It is foregone conclusion that
Lexington viii have two new rail
roads passing through town-the one
leading to Leesvine, Batesburg, All
ken and augusta; the other north of
the Augusta road leading to Saluda
and other points. Mr., Pitcher is now
on the line OF the Saluda branch Sc
curing. the right Of way for the South
Carolina Public Service Corporation
andhas covered the territory to Price
vile. he has been returning here
every night.so that he can report re-
suits, which we learn are entirely
satisfactory-all giving the right of
way to the road. There is now a very
practical idea of great saving to both
roads, from this point at least. 1t is
suggested that these roads build
iointly, the roadbed from here to
Brook1and, their.routes being parallel
and almost identical and in close
proximity all the way. Each road
VIII lay its track, making double
track on the same bed to Lexington
and as far as it is feasible, and until
the Sauda road branches off.

If we are to have liquor we fail to
see why and where under the local
option law there can be any objec-
tions to it's features. It is thoroughly
democratic. We may have prohibi-
tion or county dispensaries; either to
be chosen by the people; Morally
the one will be as good as the other.
The sudden close Of the dispensary
did not discomode us in the least, and
we are not among those weeping,
signing and longing for -. We
are still among the dryest individuals
in the State and glad that that un-
auenchable and gnawing appetite has
never placed as under its influences.

Dispatches from Washington states
that Senator Tillman has engage
ments to speak on the platform every
nigh Sundays included-fron the
close of congress on March 4, until
the opening Of the next session in De-
cember. He will get for these lee
tlres two hundred dollars night,
and he is at liberty to select his own
subject just so long as they are of
characteristic pitchfork variety that
has made him famous. 1t is claimed
that Senator Tillman's services are in
greater demand than any lecturer on
the American platform today. The
total amount he will receive for the
summers work viii aggregate 5000.
A pretty good salary for the Senator.

Some Of the newspapers OF this
state have been talking a whole lot
about stealing articles As the old
saying goes, the pot cannot call the
kettle black Where is the paper,
outside Of the greats metropolitan
journals, probably, that does not
steal stuff from the other papers?
One Of the papers engaged in the con-
froversy, as it were, and it is an af-
ternoon daily, certainly cannot say
anything, OF should notisay anything,
for it frequently takes articles that
are sent to other papers by their spe-
|cial correspondents in Washington.
More than this, it copies the whole
article, headlines and all. "Consis-

This session of Congress is the most
expensive one in the history OF the
government, nearly two billion dol
lars having already been appropriated.
The salaries of members have been
increased fifty per cent; the pension
roll has been increased fifteen million
dollars, and other appropriations in
like proportions. The increase-it is
claimed by the members-is due to
the fact that this is progressive age
and to the general prosperity OF the
country.

The ouietness of our town, the past

Saturday, when no liquor was easily
gotten, and in fact, it seemed gener-

prohibition did not totally prohibit,
vet it did prohibit. But the "modus

order and, of course, the unlawful
handling of the stun was not much In
evidence. Later, under the new law,
we will see what we see.
