Installing Water System.

During the past six months the
owoers of the Addison Mills, which
co o"poration commands about fifty
millions of dollars, have been max
ing extensive improvements on their

ing of the entire property has been
overhaulcd, repaired and repa.nted.
The latest improvement is the in

for the entire mill village. This
will not only add to the comfort of
the operatives but will greatly i'm
prove sanitary conditions. The

.ne men actively in charge, are very
ard they have other inn
provements in contemplation. The
cotton and oil mill properties here
have fallen into good hands, which
means much TO the town and vi

Two Blue Ribbon Boys.

Of course there are more than
two young men in Edgefeld, who
are faithful to duty, but The Ad-
vertiser feels that there are two in
the postofice who deserve special
mention at this time. We refer TO
Mark Miller and Watson QUITS.
During the period just preceding
Christmas when tt, e was constant
demand on their strength, to say
nothing of their patience, they meas
ured up to everything that could be
expected of them by an exacting
public. Che outgoing and incom-
ing mails were all heavy but these
young gentlemen handled every de-
tail with seeming ease, being court
eous and obliging all the while. 1t
is due them that they should be
commended for the manner in which
they have served the patrons of the
office during this period of stress
and strain. This does not mean,
however, that Mark and Wat"
are not faithful and efficient all the
time, for they are. So The Adver-
vertiser herewith pins blue ribbon
on the lapel of each of these faith
full young men.

rangements to clean out several
packs of panthers which have been
reported in that section, says the

ago an old panther and three young
ones were sighted in the road near
the Howe ranch. Mr.. Thomas says
that the deer hunters Jared better
near the close of the season than at
any other time this year. So far as
he has been able to compile the re-
ports, 161 bucks were killed in Coos
county this season. He thinks that
more than this number were secured
as he has not been able to get reports
from several hunting parties.

GUS as a pure-bred livestock k-breeding
center. Leading stockmen of Crook

the association" says R. A. Ward,
county agricultural agent, who is re-
sponsible for forming the organiza-
tion. "Plans are already under way
to issue our directory early in the

ship is that every member must en-
gage in the raising of registered
stock"
Mr.. Ward reports that the use of

call for organizing the national army
of 100000 into sixteen divisions Of
white troops and one of colored
troops.
Instead of concentrating all the
colored men in the few cantonments
of the southern states, the policy Of
the War Department, it is said, will
be to distribute them more or less
evenly throughout the sixteen nation
al cantonments.
No definite date has yet been set
for the moving of the balance OF the
