They dashed down the hill and ran into an embankment overturning the buggy and precipitating the occupants to the ground. None were injured except Mr. Yarborough himself, his knee being considerably wrenched and skinned. His injuries were not serious, however, beyond the pain incident to the accident, but he was unable to continue his journey. in Brief, audio tic Foist. Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe to good nature. The human digestive apparatus is one of the most complicated and wonderful things in existence. It is easily put out of order. Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food, bad cookerv, mental worn-, late hours, irregular habits, and many other things which ought not to bo, have made the American people a nation of dyspeptics.

Hibi.k Association.?The South Carolina Bible Association will hold its annual meeting in Columbia on November 7 and 3. The meetings of the Association will be held in the Y. M. C. A. building where there will be addresses of welcome, devotional exercises and enrollment of delegates. Besides the reports from the various societies in the State any other business calling for consideration will be attended to. There will be a union mass meeting in one of the churches of the city where.addresses wiiL-be de: delivered by specialiwrfimnct speakers ; of the Slats. There are one or two ! societies hi this county, which will i doubtless send delegates. The Society I formerly in active operation at this | place, while not having kept up its work, will probably send delegates to I the meeting. ? i Akkual Ccxferekce.?The annual m 'MV.f liA.ltcf /?VinvftV\ in i wmcic:?v?; i ^ivni^/uiov wuui vu * ?* this State will-meet in Vvinnsboro on November 28. A committee consisting of the iiev. G. P. Watson, chairman, J. F. McMaster, J. X. Center, and S. C. ilcDowell has been ap-j pointed to make a canvass of the town ; in the matter of entertaining the mem- j bers. This body consists of 250 mem-! ber.s and is the largest religious meeting that has ever assembled in this place, and is the first meeting of the a.mual conference in Winnsboro. The well-known hospitality of our citizens will be equal to the occasion, and everybody will receivo a warm welcome. It is undecided where the meetings will be held, but it is probable that the Opera House will be engaged for ihe occasion, as no church in town will scat the delegates and the audience which will be present. Tee Hudson Monument. ? This monnmcuL which stands in front of Mount Zion College, certainly needs some attention from the Board of Trustees. In passing it the other day* it was noticed that the monument is terribly abused. It always has been abused by thoughtless boys, and such is the case at the present. It is blackened with lead pencil marks, and parts of it have been recently chipped off. It is impossible for the teachers to prevent this vandalism, as our own experience attests, having been a teacher in the same institution. The only remedy that suggests itself is the erection of an iron fence around the. monument of sufficient height to prevent thoughtless boys and others from defacing it. We hope the proper authorities will take the ncecssary steps preserve this monument from further defacement. ?Ii?v Dr. Burrows, pastor First Baptist Church, Augusta, Ga., says: "I have used II. \l. ?. myself and in my family for years and find it "to be the best remedy known * * I or SICK iicauacuu, cyusupiiuuii vx uui uuo disorders- I advise any one suffering from these troubles to use it and keep it in their family."

It seems that Buzzard, who is also a negro, is going through the ccuuty pretending to be a great doctor and by working upon the credulity of simple minded negroes he readily practices his fraud upon them. About September 15 the services of the 'doctor" were engaged by Mayo, whose wife was sick. After going through certain forms or several days ! rVrrvinrWi ^ ?ul r^fwved from Mavo ! five dollars in cash and two dollars worth of chickcus as "compensation for his services. lie then said he would leave for a day or two and return and complete the cure. lie not only left, but enticed Mavo's thirteen-year-old daughter to leave with him, and they have not been heard,from since.

The prSfrainme as published, besides the addresses in the Opera House, included tire firing of cannon and a torch light proccsSion* but for some cause this part of the exeroisCS , was not adhered to. At the appointed hour for the speaking the Opera House was packed from pit to dome by those who desired to hear the distinguished speakers. Congressman Mansur, of Chillicothe, Mo., was the first speaker, and for over one hour he entertained his audience with an address upon the tariff in all its phases. His speech was frequently interrupted with cheers and applause. After Congressman Mansur had finished, the audience was addressed by Senator Butler on the same subject. It was with regret that the Fairfield delegation had to leave to take the train for home almost at the begiuning of the Senators speech. Tae meeting, in so far as the speaking was concerned, was a great success, and one could not help being impressed with the fact that if possible such meetings should be held in every county, where the people could learn in a short while from men versed in national politics, the monstrous evils of the iniquitous tariff, and the best way of remedying them.

This Club, like the Fairs held in Chester, is composed of gentlemen from the four counties of Chester, Fairfield, York, and Lancaster, and it is proposed to give an entertainment during each Fair. Mr. J. II. McLure is president and N. C. Walker secretary, and haviug been only recently organized this is the first entertainment. The ball was given in the Odd Fellows Hall and the Italian band from Char lotte discoursed sweet music. T&irty-1 five couples were on the floor and the i seats in the hall vrerc occupied by dignified chaperons and gentlemen who told of "how we used to dance." Besides the four counties Charlotte and Columbia were both represented, the forrfier contributing her belle, the i pretty Miss Hatty. A description of i the costumes will not be attempted. They were all both handsome aud becoming, and it has seldom been our good fortune to see so many pretty girls together. The Winnsboro representatives were frequently complimented 011 the gracefulness of their dancing, blisses Ilachel and Mallie McMaster, who are attending the Fair, j joined the "Winnsboro party at the ball.

Some figures that of_Iulorcst to i Taxpayers?From the books of the Treasure^ we; glean the following statistics regard-Sing county taxation which will doubt- j less be read with interest by all tr.x- J payers: The total tax assessed in the county i is 843,000 as shown by the Treasurer's j duplicates, and is divided as follows: j State tax 16,786.45! Ordinary county tax 11,750.53 j Special county tax 2,517.97 i entinnl (i 71.1 .">0 Special school t' r 1,67S.?7 Poll tax 3,709.00 Special school tax ya;c! by tue C. C. A. Railroad...... 84.00 Total $43,240.91 j Of this amount of the railroads in the county pay $6,025.18, which is about one-seventh of the total tax. It may be interesting to compare the present taxation with that assessed in Radical times. The last tax duplicate of Radical times in the Treasurer's office shows a total assessment of $78,000 for this county. About $15,000 of this amount remained in the county, which, under various condi- j tiens, was distributed among the peo- j pie, the balance, $63,000, went to I Columbia where it was grabbed by j the corrupt men then in office. Under I the oresent State of affairs about! $16,786.45 goes to Columbia which is j disbursed under honest and proper methods, leaving a balance of$26,45-1.46, which, in the ordinary- course of business would be distributed i among the people of the county. IIow j wonderful then, is it 'hat our people ' should have stood such unjust taxation! "While cn the subject of taxation, it will be matter of interest to know what taxes corporations pay. The Winnsboro National Bank, for in tav.ce, pays $72.88, whicti is the tax on j real estate owned by it. The tax j paid by the stockholders of the insti- j tntion, however, makes the Bank j taxation much larger than the above sum. Under the now law relating to the assessment of bank stock the tax that is due on ti-o stock is' assessed opon the individual stockholders and not upon the bank, as heretofore. Under the old law the bank paid the tax on the capital stock. Other interesting figures will be found below: The largest tax paying school dis tricl is No. 14, which pays $0,500 of the total tax, followed by Bricc township, or school district Xc. 2, which pays $3,000, on through the list to school district Xo. 17, which pays $110. From the above figures it will be seen that No. 14 pays nearly one-fifth of the total taxes. The county is divided into twentyone townships. The largest number of persons paying poil tax is i:i. Brice township, 44S in number, ranging from that figure to 41 in No. 1G. Many other interesting figures could be given, but these will suffice for the present. ?JERSEY FLATS CHILL and FEVER CURE is guaranteed by all merchants selling it to cure, or money refunded.
