Song Recital in Opera House.

Attracted by the announcement
that Signora Carolina De Fabritiis
would give a song recital, a large
number of persons gathered in the
opera house Friday evening. Know
ing of the past achievements Of this
very talented vocalist, they went ex-
pecting to hear a most charming
program and they were not dis
appointed. From the opening num-
Der Signora De Fabritiis was gen.
erously applauded, being forced to
respond to repeated encores, which
she did most graciously. In addition
to possessing most charming voice,
Signora De Fabritiis understands
what to select from her practically
limitless repertoire. The large au-
dience which was thoroughly cap
tivated from the beginning did not
fail to respond heartily to every
number. The instrumental selection
by Miss Lura Minis, the gifted
tpianist who accompanied Signora,
DE Fabritiis was also well llreceiyed.

European Governments Buying
Horses.

Washington, October 2s.-Re-
ferring to reports that agents of
the European governments are buy
ing large numbers of horses in the
United States for war purposes,
president Harrison of Southern
Railway company. said to-day:
This is matter that directly
concerns the farmers Of the south.
On account of the great destruction
of horses that is now going on in
Europe, we may look forward to an
active demand for draft animals
during the war and for some time
after the restoration Of peace. The
natural effect of this will be to
bring about higher prices, and this
emphasizes the importance to the
farmers of the south of raising their
own draft animals and not buying
80 many horses and mules from the
west az heretofore"

Death of MIR. Abner B. Covar

Saturday afternoon, October 81,
Mr.. Abner B. Covar passed away
at his home in south Edgefeld.
About three years ago he suffered a
sunstroke ana has never been
strong since. For the past year he
was confined to his home almost
continuously. Mr. Covar was at the
time of his death within few days
of his Goth birthday.
Mr.. Covar was by nature quiet,
unobtrusive nan who attended
strictly to his own business. He
was understood and appreciated
most by those who knew him best.
While he concentrated his time and
efforts upon his own individual in
,erests, which he managed with
signal success, yet Mr. Covar was
always found on the right side of
every question affecting the welfare
OF the town and county. He was a
model of industry, thrift and fru
gality. Mr.. Coyar was devoted to
his home.life and to the inmates Of
his home, and he was likewise a
kind and thoughtful neighbor.
While he never united with any
local church, yet during his illness
he professed faith in God, and
would doubtless have become a
member of some church had he re-
gained his strength.
He is survived by his wife and
two sons, Alfred and Andrew Go,
var, four sisters and one brother.
The funeral was conducted from
the Baptist church Sunday after,
noon, Rev. J. r. Walker and Rev.
z. G.. Bailey officiating.

Encourage Boys and Girls.

It will be worth while to give the
boys and girls chance on the
farm. Do not expect them to take
an interest when they are not re-
sponsible and when they are not al
lowed to earn and spend for them
selves. A few may take an interest
without the privilege of earning
something for themselves, but many
will not. Men do not like to work
without compensation for their la,
Dor, neither do children.-Farm d
