On Wednesday evening, Mr.. and
Mrs. W. H. Cherry entertained a
company of friends at five hundred
party with Halloween trimming. Their
pleasant home was decorated sugees-
tive of Halloween. A fierce looking
pumpkin grinned at the guests from
over the doorway, and on entering,
each guest was accosted by ghost
and required to jump the broomstick.
This ceremony over, the visitor was
escorded thru the darkened chambers
by another spectral figure to where
the wraps were left, and was then
privileged to join the company and
watch the next visitor perform. After
all had arrived, lights were turned on,
the ghosts vanished, and card playing
was taken up. The honors were won
by Mr.. George Danielson and Miss
Katherine Griffith, after which ex-
cellent refreshments were served.

The city papers have again been
printing items regarding the refusal
of this county to pay $4,414.70 still
claimed by the state as due on seed
grain loans. This is a balance due
from farmers in this county for seed
grain advanced by the state, and is
entirely uncollectable from the parties
who received the seed grain. The
state auditor seeks to have this bal
ance raised by tax in this county, but
successive county attorneys have ad-
vised the county auditor that he had
no constitutional right to levy the
tax. The state authorities should try
out the matter in the courts or else
quit trying to collect it.

1t is infinitely jollier than a grabbag

this feature is brought on the last
thing before dessert, when the table
is cleared and there is plenty of room
for the voluminous crinkly paper
skirts of the old witch who presides
over the pie or for the basket which
contains the goodies" These pies
are made to order and the foundation
is usually a deep basket or bowl filled
with cotton, in which downy nest the
four and t%wenty-four blackbirds, or
presents If there are that many
guests-are concealed. The bowl is
then covered with pufings and deep
frills of pumpkin colored crepe paper,
and in the centre is stuck a good
sized papier mache witch, with her
body showing only from the waist up.
Yellow or red ribbons attached to
the favors are run through the fluffy
and ample skirt of the witch, and
then the ends are festooned so as to
look like trimming. 1t is the ends OF

however, q number Of the fair week
visitors chose poker for entertain
ment and were arrested and forced
to put up bonds for their appear
ance. They let their bail talk for
them in recorders court and these
rather large sums helped boost the

This year the weather was, so
pleasant that the strangers within the
7gales found enough to occupy them
outside and but few poker games
were launched, hence the city did not
receive this additional revenue.

COLORED FAIR il SUCCESS
Attendance lis Large, Exhibits Are
Good and Crowd is Well-Behaved.

Batesburg, Special.--The colored
State Fair took Batesbmg by storm.
The whole thing was a success. The
town was full of cclored people.
Wednesday Was the third day of the
Fair and a more orderly crowd of pco-
pie never assembled in any place.
There had not been an arrest of any
one so far. Good order is the watch
word, and it is being carried out to
perfection. There are quite a num-
Der of prominent negroes here from
various parts of the State, and they
seem to be prosperous and well be-
haved.
There was a colored man by the
name Of Walker here from Sumter.
He is a credit to his race; every time
he speaks he says something that has
u meaning to it. His counsel to the
negroes is along the proper lines. He
tells them to stick to agriculture and
try to produce something. He takes
the position that towns and cities
have a tendency to lower and demor-
alize the colored race.
The Rev. Richard Carroll is one
Of the moving spirits at the Fair. He
is president, and what he says has
weight, He is opposed to side shows
and carnivals at the fairs. He takes
the position that caruivals and side
shows are a menace to any town. The
exhibits at the Fair, are very good,
and speak volumes for a race of peo-
pie that have been free for only a
little over forty years. The field
crops Of all kinds were there in abun-
dance. The stock was good-such as
horses, mules, cattle and hogs. The
art and household department was
well represented. President Carroll
selected judges from the white citi-
zens Of the town to pass OH the mer-
its of the various exhibits.
