-Oconce county officers last Tues
day night captured "tin Lizzie' on
the public road above Westminster.
The aforesaid Lizzie contained two
Anderson citizens and three gallons
OF Oconee corn liquor. The men and
Lizzie and the liquor were brought to
Walhalla. Bond was promptly fur
nished for the men and auto. We
are unable to give the correct names
Of the men, but we understand they
are quite prominent In their home
town-tinancially and socially.

Anderson county does not only
produce large potatoes. She raises
large families as we'll. Two or three
years ago a colored farmer by the
name of Jones came up here from
Anderson. He has large family,
and brought all Of them with him.
lie left Anderson because the soil
of that county would not produce
sufficiently to enable him to make a
living and clothe his family respect
ably. He is doing well up here and
is saving money. He came to town
last week and bought about $500
worth Of clothing and shoes at one
time. lie has to make his money go
as far us possible, even after produc-
ing abundant crops in Oconee. Jones
bought 5 pairs OF shoes for his fam
lly. This bill alone amounted to $40.
Jones lives in the EbeneZer section.
1t Is said that II Jones had stayed in
Anderson he would have been ont at
the county home by this time.
