ITEMS FROM COPE.
The Postoffice Doing q Flourishing
Business-Other News.


Cope, S. c., Oct. 21.-Special:
Every once in awhile we see in the
papers what the Orangeburg Post
Office or some other place, is doing
in the postal line. Cope has two
R. F. D. routes leading out from
her Office, and if your correspondent
is not mistaken, holds the record for
being the pioneer in rural free de-
livery mail. Certainly in the South,
anyhow, for when Mr.. ]. w. Stokes,
from this county, succeeded in hav-
old friend, Mr.. Jas. S. Tatum, who
has passed away, carried the first
r. F. D. mail, and served both
routes, making the trip every other
day alternately. The postmistress,
Miss Maggie E. Tatum, informed the
writer this morning that from the
1st Of October up to now she has
received and remitted for $1,190.64.
OF course this is not monthly aver
age, but it speaks we'll for place
the size OF Cope.
The school, with our efficient
teacher, Miss Lulie T. Tatum as
head, and Miss Creighton, of North
Augusta, assistant, and Miss HUT,
of Virginia, as music teacher, is now
in full blast, and all indications
point to q successful term.
Dr.. H. NJ. Barton left Tuesday
afternoon for Walhalla, where he
goes to make preparation for his
move to that town. In the NOV
ing away of DR.. Barton there will
be an opening here for some good
doctor, second to none in the coun-
ty. For Cope has good farming
country backing it, has good people
in it and like everyother place in
the country, has some sickness, too.
Cotton IS bringing a good price.
and I feel that l am correct when
say Cope is getting her share of
the business. There has been Is or
l8 car loads of cotton seed shipped
from here already this season.
