AFFAIRS AT ANDREWS.
A Mantle of SnoW-Negro's Horse
Orowned-Three Buildings Burnt.

Andrews, January 15:-Our town
is today enveloped in one of the
deepest SHOWS we have ever seen in
this county; it measures 4 to 6 inches
deep and the roads are impossible.
A negro, Fletcher Graham, got his
horse drowned in a washout, on
Horsepen dam, between Andrews
and Black river. The R F D mail
route is temporarily discontinued,
Black river being impossible.
Our town fathers are becoming
quite snappy; they are forbidding
the sale and consumption of all
matter that is not frozen, whether
medicine or soft drinks. If these
honorable town officials would sweep
away those blind tigers at their
doors that are run by white and
black and not reach around those
open bar-rooms to hunt the sale of
medicine which is compounded with
a little alcohol to preserve the medi-
cine, those debauched places for the
sale of whisky would not be run
right at the doors of our officers.
West-end seems to be the only place
in the town of Andrews where one
is held accountable to the law. It's
a great pity our town did not have
the right to make constitution for
South Carolina, for we have some
who try to amend the constitution
without its being submitted to a
vote.
Three two-story buildings were
destroyed by fire last Saturday night
in the East-end of town. We have
not learned whether the property
was insured or not. WSC G.

Not they who soar. but they who plod
Their rugged way unhelped to God.
Are heroes. They who higher fare
And. flying. fan the upper air
Miss all the toll that hugs the sod
'Tis they whose backs have felt the rod,
Whose feet have pressed the path unshod
May smile upon defeated care.
Not they who soar.
High up there are no thorns to prod
Nor powders lurking meath the c!od
To turn the keenness Of the share.
For flight Is ever free and rare.
But heroes they the soil who've trod.

He happened to get hold Of a copy OF

EDWIN BRUSH, MAGICIAN

Edwin Brush, magician, has
come near disproving Lincoln's
famous saying by fooling all Of
the people all Of the time for the

pie seem to enjoy being fooled,
in this way at least. A good
magician is popular always, ard
Mr.. Brush is plainly in that class.
Those who enjoy a wholesome

ment should make it point to
see and hear Mr.. Brush. He be-
lieves heartily in the mission OF
mirth and holds that a laugh is
no less sacred than tear.
Mr.. Brush comes with but one
assistant, but he brings with him
a large quantity Of. baggage and
stage settings that will please tie

THREE NEW CIRCUIT JUDGES.
Messrs Rice, Spain and Gary the
Winners--TWo Reelected.

Messrs Rice, Spain and Gary the
Winners--Two Reelected.
Columbia, January 12:-The joint
assembly of the two Houses to-day
made the following elections of Cir
cult Judges:
For the I'd circuit, Hayne F Rice,
fsof Aiken, to succeed the late Robert
Ad1ich.
ga Fo4 the 4th circuit, Thomas H
Z SpaiE, of Darlington, to succeed
Associate Justice R c Watts.
For the 9Th circuit, Frank B Gary,
ofaAbbeville, to succeed the late
Judge ] C Klugh.
For the 18th circuit, Judge j. W..
Devore, of Edgefeld, reelected.
For the 18th circuit, Judge 5 w
G Shipp, of Florence, reelected.
The first two elections were full
of spirit and vim and the contest
between Mr. Edward McIver and
MIR Spain, to succeed Judge Watts,
for the unexpired term, was one of
the sharpest and most spirited con-
tests that has been seen in many
years.
On the first ballot the result was
tie. There was a bit of feeling
over what appeared to be delay in
the announcement of the result, and
while the result was pending several
Senators came in and recorded their
votes. The late arrivals added to
the vote of Mr. McIver and there
was more or less resentment over
what some thought to be a pur-
posed delay, but each vote stood on
its own bottom and when once re-
corded, under the rules, cannot be
changed until the next ballot. On the
second ballot Mr. Spain won by & ma
jority of 26 votes, although on the
first ballot it was tie.
In the race for the Judgeshio
from the I'd circuit there was a
sharp contest, which narrowed down
to Senator Bates, of Barnwell, and
Mr. Hayne F Rice. of Aiken. On
the second ballot, when things SIM
mered down, the vote stood Hates
66, Rice IA, Miley 10, Davis 5. On
the third and final ballot the vote
stood Rice SO and Bates SIS, ano by
this vote Mr. Hayne F. Rice, at
present q member of the State
Board of Education, was elected to
succeed Judge Aldrich.
Some members insisted On having
all the elections without a recess,
but when the uncontested elections
came up the dinner bell had its at
attractions and Judge DeVore's elec-
ton had to be postponed until night,
= q quorum was not voting before
the recess.
The House then entered into the
election of the Judge of the 9th cir
cult, and the Hon Frank B Gary,
one of the leading members Of the
House and a member of the dis
tinguished judicial family of Garys,
was unanimously elected to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of the
late incumbent, Judge j c Klugh.
Judges ] W Devore and S w G
Shipp were nominated for re-elec-
ton as Judges of the 18th and 18th
circuits, respectively. There was no
opposition to either.
At the night session lis votes
were cast for the reelection Of
Judge j w DeVore, and as this
constituted legal election, he was
declared elected Judge for the full
term. Judge S w G Shipp, of
Florence, was then unanimously re-
elected as Judge of the 18th circuit.
