AGED HAN BURNED TO Death.
Vas a Confederate Veteran and Lived
All AI0ne-fiPe ACClden tai.

Coroner Gamble held an in.
quest Morlay near Taft over the
remains O Frank Smith,a white
man "a years old, who was
burned to death in his house
Sunday night, January 80, at 8
O'Clock. The old man lived all
alone in a small house and the
house, it is supposed, caught
fire from the clay chimney which
was in a dilapidated condition,
and Mr. Smith perished in the
flames. Among the ashes was
found S5.l9 ia coin and there
seemed to be signs among the
debris of paper money having
been destroyed.
The body was bnlned to a
crisp and could not be identi.
fed, but circumstantial evidence
left no room for doubt as to the
identity of the unfortunate man.
The coroner's jury returned a
verdict in accordance with the
above facts, there being no
grounds for suspicion of foul
play.
The deceased was a Confeder.
ate veteran and had no near rel
atives, it is said.

4 Mistake Not a Sin.

To Pere Monsabre, the dis.
tlnguished French preacher, there
came one Sabbath, after mass,
lady who insisted that she must
see him on an affair of great i'm
portance. 1t was matter of con-
science, and she explained that she
was most seriously disturbed. In
fact, she was sadly given to vanity.
That very morning, she confessed,
she had looked in the glass and had
welded to the temptation of think
ing herself pretty.
Pere Monsabre looked at her; SIS
that all, my daughter?:''
"That Is all.''

Good morning sir; Mr. Editor.
how are folks to-day? I owe you for
nezt years paper, and I thought I'd
come in and paw. And Jones is
goin' to take it and this is his
money here, ] shut down lendin'
it to him and then coaxed ,im to
try it q year. And here is u few
little items that happened last week
out onr way: l thought they'd look
good for the paper and 80 I just
jotted 'em down. And here, is a
basket of apples my wife picked
expressly for you; and here is o
pumpkin from Jennie-she thought
she must send something too.
You're doing the politics bully,
as all of our family agree, just
keep your old goose Quill a asppin'
and give bad men q good one for
me. And now you are check full
of business, and l won't be takin'
your time, I've things OF my own
l must tend to-good day, sir, 1
believe 1 will climb" The editor
sat on his hard bottom chair, and
brought down his fiat with a thump.
"God bless that sturdy farmer, "
he muttsred, 'she'sa regular jolly
old trump" And it's thus with
our noble profession and thus it
will ever be still, there are some
who appreciate it's labor and some
who perhaps never will But in
the great time that is coming,
when Gabriel's trumpet shall sound,
and they who labored and rested,
shall come from the qulvering
ground. When they who have
striven and suffered to each one in
his God given place, as they
march through the gates of the
golden city with proud victorious
tread, the country editor and his
"devil" will travel not far from the
head.-EIchange.

In your last weeks Issue your COR
respondent, under the head of "Do:

makes an inaccurate statement in re-

out the enacting words Of the bill l

equivalent to voting for the bill. My
reason for doing 80 was that con-
sidered it q necessary adjunct to the
repeal of the lien law, in order to
carry out the wishes of the farmers
along that line.
Your correspondent from Andrews
commenting on the Legislature, said
"Note the trip to Charleston and
other points to try to make out the

gotten that there is now no allotted

ANOTHER CASE OF ASSAULT
In Hebron Section Negro Girl the
Victim-ASSallant Lodged In jail.

Another case of assault with
intent to ravish is reported from
the Hebron section. This time
the victim of the lecherous
scoundrel's lust is a colored
girl and the negro charged with
the crime, who goes by the name
of Robert Burgess, is said to be
a cousin of Johnny Rose, who
doubtless by the time these lines
are read will have expiated his

Burgess was brought in last

Elveen and is now in jail, but
the crime he is, charged with
