Olar, Feb. 24.-On Sunday morn
ing we were debating in our mind
whether to try and stay up or go
back to bed, our real good friend,
w. H. Ritter, knowing we had been
sick, sent for us to come and spend
the day with him, that he had COM
pany that he would like for us to
meet. We went and everything was
so pleasant till we soon forgot we
had ever been sick. His friends
were w. Gordon Kearse, one of our
own kinspeople, while the other was
Joe Johnson, of Philadelphia. These
young men are both holding down
good jobs with the Scoield people.
By the way, if all Yankees are as
clever as the Scofeld lot, then they
are certainly clever set.
Both Mrs. w. H. and G.. E. Ritter
have been on the sick list-chills
and fever-but are better now.
Our hostess, Miss Sudie Ritter, is
looking for company this week, and
should this company fail to show up,
we know full we'll that she too will
be numbered among the sick.
Miss Nell Kearse got fall the
other day which left some bruises,
but we hope she will be out again
soon.

MAY LOSE EYESIGHT.
Dallas kimbaH Suffers Serious Injury
From Powder Explosion at Aiken.

Aiken, Feb. 21.-Dallas Kimball,
the 9-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. J. Kimball, will very probably
lose his eyesight from a powder ex-
plosion which the little boy precipi-
tated yesterday afternoon when he
took the charge of powder from a
shotgun shell, placed it in a tin can
and fired it. The little chap was in
the field near his home when the
explosion occurred, and the first his
parents knew of his accident was
when, blinded and bleeding from a
terrible wound in his head and black
ened face, he stumbled into the house
after cropping his way home. Physi-
clans say he will not likely recover
his eyesight.
