think and sometimes say there Is no
good In ehis cd word ~ .khek the ma
iority are n the wfo1R, win turn their
eyes upon the,utter defeat of TIE unen
saloon for our county as well e for -
many others. In spite Of great deal
we heard 70 tire contrary this result met
our expectations.
Mr.. Upchurch and family are COM
fortably located in the parsonage, one
room being held In reserve for the min
ister. We are glad Mr.. Upchurch de-
cided to. live in Chaires, even after
renting house in the Capital City, for
judging this family by short acquain-
lance, this community could Ill afford
to lose them.
The saw mill located two rifles east
of US is in running order now. AZ soon
as the houses are built Tor the large
force of men who will operate the mill

Rev. Mr.. Sanders, who served the
Methodist Church for this circuit so
faithfully for the past two months, left
Monday for La Gloria Cuba, going via
BraidentOwn, for brief visit to his
brother. Mr.. Sanders could but carry
with him the universal esteem of his
entire charge since he 50 perfectly
meets the requirements OF Bishop Cand-
Ter, (who called hin 70 Cuba who in
writing what kind q men We're needed
said, I'VE want real men, men of piety,
education, courage and self-reliance,
who know how to bftl1g things TO pass. "
We are glad to have been under the
ministry of such a man, who was in
strumental IN strengthening the church,
not only numerically but also spiritu-
ally. His usefulness will be increased
thousand fold in the missionary field.

Mr.. and Mrs. Jones, Of Black Creek,

turned that day from Tallahassee,

we believe to attend some social event.
Mrs. j. II. Patterson accompanied

Mrs. McMeekin, a trained nurse Of
Jacksonville, has been in Charles for

The ladies of the Home Mission SO.
ciety have been quite busy of late get
ting the parsonage furniture stored
away and the building ready for rental;
also, in supplying the pastors room
with all things needful. These ladies
are busy also in raising the deficit upon
the parsonage building of fifty dollars,
by March LIST. When the entire amount
of $3.50, or rather this last payment
has been collected and paid, we will
feel relieved of a great responsibility
which only the Charles people assumes.
But we feel that this is indeed a very
profitable investment, which cannot be
oVerestlmated

Through the appreciated kindness of
numerous friendss Re have been enjoy
ing 'hog-killing" almost the entire
winter, and we would especially thank
the friend from a distance who sent us
large box containing, among other
things, some souse or hogshead cheese,
which was the most valuable we ever
had, since one Of its component parts
was fine garnet ring.
Nature is beginning TO don her full
spring attire, which she has never en-
tirely laid aside She is beguiling some
into belief, however, that all danger
of freeze is over since gardens show
such advancement We are eating
ripe Strawberries from our garden, but
don't ask US about the quantity.
