A. R. Dorroh, son of Mr.. J. Henry
Dorroh, living in No. 6 township, Wa:
kicked by mule Tuesday. Young
Dorroh had his nose broken, the blow
cutting through to the orbit Of the
mouth.
On next Sunday morning collection
will be taken in all of the Episcopal
churches for the Bishop Capers me-
mortal. It is hoped the offering in
each church Of the diocese will be
liberal.
The Jenkins Orphanage, colored,
band, Of Charleston, touring in the
interest Of that institution, gave a
concert in Newberry Wednesday
might. It is said to have been well
attended and that the music was
good.
The long dry spell in Newberry was
broken by gentle April shower
Tuesday afternoon, followed by a
better one at midnight. The dust was
laid low, as the rain settled it for
a while. Little drops Of water, lit
tie speeks of dust, make a big COM
motion when they meet and bust.
Among the attractions attracting
the attention of the B-P delegates
and visitors was the handsome new
court house. A bery Of young and
comely Philatheans we're observed ex-
amining the interior of the building,
and they spoke volumes with their
eyes and mouths.
During rock blasting near the
knitting mill Wednesday morning a
water main was hit by one Of the
pieces and broken. The water skeet'
ed high and a large quantity was
wasted before the main could be
mended. It flooded the ground anc
spread like a pond for while.
Some people are complaining thai
the rain was not generous enougt
with its showers. Of course a more
bountifu supply would be aecepta
BILE, and thankfully received, but tn
laying of the dust only for thre'
days ought to be fully appreciated
However, the rain is very much need
