B:st end. jj (I Incidents or a Week v t (lie (j Esq., iindJadge J. Fuller t _f tbe Bar Association meet- n I <ng in Columbia. They left on Monday. ' There were uo services In the Presbyterian 0 church Sunday owing to the absence of the c pastor, Rev. J. Lowrie Wilson. Dr. Wilson preached the serraou at the installation of the Rev. Mr. Nail, which occnrred at Green- V wood on Sunday morning. e Messrs. W. W. Bradley and J. C. Klugh r have been in Columbia for the past week. * Mr. A. B. Hambllu is building a residence n on Main street near the home of Mr. R. K. Cox. u Miss Mary DuPre, after a most delightful visit to her brothers, returned to Clemson 0 '"olieae on Monday. 0 Judge and Mrs. J. S. Cothran are In the ? city, the guests of their son, Mr. W. s. Cothran. t In the death of Mr. G. S. Cade Abbeville t Counly has lost one of her best citizens. Mr. i, Cade visited here quite often, and had many warm friends here who moot deeply sym- r pathlze with bis children and relatives in their sore bereavement. Just a few days ago ? the deceased was here in th? full enjoyment ' of health, and the news of bis death could S hardly be believed. Truly, "in the midst or s lile we are in death." n It will not be a great, while before the city election comes off, and it behooves our people i to look around them and select for our future ?i mayor and aldermen the very best men for ? the positions. Men who will have, as our city lathers now have, the very best interests 01 g the majority of the people at. heart. Those e who will forget self-interest and only strive _ to render their services in such a way that . the greatest good may come 10 our people ' and that Abbeville, under their supervision t will continue to improve as she has done In ,, the past. Men of this kind we have in abundauce. and we doubt not the selection of the U city officers will be a wise one. i work on the artesian well had not begun ,. at this writing. Everything was in shape to ? commence operations, and the contractor Is t only waiting for the casing that must be used as the well is sunk. This casing is an Iron pipe, and is put down as fast as the boreing is done. Mr. Granville Beal, of Calhoun Falls, came | ? - - . i 1... ? ' up IU mc UHJ WU iuuuuuj. Mrs. J. R. Blake, Miss Leona Blake, Miss (Jorrie Helan, Miss Bertie Helan aud Prof. Gibson went down to Greenwood Saturday on a visit to friends. The usual union services were not held Sun- day night on account of the rain. 1 W. D. Barksdale & Co., are rapidly filling t their store with goods, and bran new goods at t that. The members of this firm are young t men of talent and energy, and will, without 4 doubt, build up a splendid business as they i deserve. Call and see what they have to of- I ler. It will no doubt be to your interest to t do so. i Mr. Edwin Parker has bis poultry farm in i "ship shape," aud will In a short while be [ able to supply a large portion of the eggs and i chickens used In this market. He has his [ grounds divided in several yards, each with [ commodious and comfortable fowl houses, i and Is in lact thoroughly equipped to make a [ success of the business He has now between | 150 and 200 chickens?grown ones?and has an i incubator or 800 egg capacity in operation, and expects ere long to have a large number \ of chicks as the result of the first batching. ' These will be kept In a brooder until they are ' old enough to take care of themselves, then ' as soon as the proper size is reached will be 1 sold. rnis new enterprise we nope win ikcci i with deserved success. t Mrs. Castleman, of Calboun Falls, was in < the city Monday and Tuesday. This aged i lady Is tbe widow of a soldier of tbe Mexican i war, and was here to have tbe proper papers i filled out, mHklng application for a pension. Her husband was one of the volunteers from i Fort Wayne, Indiana, at which place she j formerly resided. How about the electrlo lights? Nothing j has been said in regard to tbem recently. ] Don't let this matter rest as H is now. We j need them badly. The store recently occupied by the W. E. ] Bell Cash Co. will on the tirst of February be t opened again?this time by tbe Misses Matbews, formerly of Athens, Ga. These ladles will keep a flrstclassstock of millinery : and ladles'goods, and are perfectly familiar t with every detail of the business in which they will engage. This piece of new6 will no t doubt be gladly received by the ladies of our city and county, as tblB new store will give them one more place at which to select the new spring dress and bat. Tbe ladles Interested in tbe Long Cane Cemetery Fund will serve oysters in tbe halt over LLie uicu-juuc& naiun nic v/w. o pw/ic i i ?u?j evening next. Remember the date and attend the feast. Dr. J.

Cilen-JoneN Hardware Co/ft LochIn. , We call your attention to the line of Chattanooga Chilled Plows which we handle. The shares, mouldboards and cutter landsldesare made of genuine chilled metal which is harder than steel can be tempered, and will wear longer than steel. They will run steady, as they have center drafts, and they can be easily adjusted to take much or little land. They have sloping landsides which gives light draft by cutting and turning the furrow over easily. These plows will run through heavy grass, weeds or stubble when other plows choke up. Shares on a plow wear out oftener than an* , other part and have to be renewed. We sell ' the shares at a very low price, thus the saving of a few cents on each share will pay for ail the other repairs about the plow. A plow like any other machine should be made of as few pieces as possible, consistent with the lifetime of each piece. We believe the Combination of this plow Is the best consisting of only standard, mouldboard, share ( and cutter landslde. We consider this Chilled Plow one of the best made, and base our claim toyourpatronago on Improvement and quality. Prices quoted on application. By using the Chattanooga Subsoil Plow you will save your crop during a dry spell. Kaslly worked by two horses. Call and exam-1 lue. I The Snn'it Distance. "Thesun is about ninety-three mil- ' ions of miles distant from the earth," writes Aldeu W. Quirnby in the La- j iosi' .Tniii'nn.1. "It varies hrough the year because the earth's j rbit is elliptical, ami the sun is at >ne focu9 of the elipse. The earth is, uore than three millionsof miles nearer he sun in December than in June, at \ k'hich time the latitudes south of the & quator receive his direct rays and ex- tl erience the great heat of their sumoer. 'Let us try to comprehend the figires stated. The other day two racers if the sea proudly lowered the record f trans-Atlantic passage. Could they urn their prows to the sun, and drive n heir great engines day and night in ft he crossing of the either mau, it would bi ie five hundred years before they could j, each harbor. . Moat persons have noticed the ap reciable interval of time between the A toke of an ax at a distance and the reultaut sound; could we heart lie sound ! if u urtlar OYnlnainn wo umtilri know ' hat the explosion had occurred four- d eeu years before. Perhaps the most triking illustration is that which ima- Q :ines a little child to have an arm long nough to reach the sun. The child night thrust its fingers into the seeth- ti ng fires but it would grow up to ma- a urity, aud calmly descend into the alley of extreme old age, blissfully inconscious of any pain from the burn ng ; in fact it would require another p uch lifetime to bring the news to the h >raiu."
