He will spend the remainder at his home near Trenton. In publishing the quarterly report of the county supervisor The Ad vertiser was in error in publishing 'the claim of Thomas Stansell $325.00 The correct amount was $25,00. This was an error of the printer and not of the. board or clerk. Mrs. O. L. Miller and her son, | Mr. James Jones, and niece, Miss Coy Wood, are now occupyingHhe Jones place in Buncombe. Their Edgefield friends are delighted that they .have come to live among us for a season. Judge T. D. Allen is having ma terial placed upon the ground for the erection of a six-room brick cot tage on the hotel lot which he pur chased some months ago. Having resided there so many years, it will be like returning home after a long absence for Judge Allen to reside on this spot again. Miss Marion Lykes, a very charm ing young lady of Columbia, is vis iting at the ?home of Mr. D. T. Mathis of Colliers. Miss Lykes taught the Colliers school several years ago and made many friends . among the good people of that sec tion, i Mr- W. G. Corley came to town Saturday and brought peaches, ap ples and oats along for sale. That is the way for a fanner to succeed. Diversify the' farming interests so something can be converted into cash every month in the year. Through the generosity of Mr. Cor ley, The Advertiser enjoyed a good portion of his El bertas. Mr. W. S. tl. Heath's speed on his motorcycle is almost equal to that of a Curtiss aeroplane. A few afternoons ago he made the trip to his'home, a distarme of nine miles, in twenty^ minutes by the watch. That's a splendid record, especially when it is 'borne in mind that he traveled over Edgefield roads after a rainy season of. several months duration. A report is current to the effect that it is probable that Capt. O. P. Bright will be taken from Edge field and assigned to another run. .The friends of Capt. and 1 Mrs. Bright would.regret exceedingly tc see them leave.. He has made a very courteous, capable official and we can not see wherein the interests o? the road would be prumoted by his removal to another portion of the Columbia diyision. Chinese Laundry : Send lis youl coljars, cuffs, etc., We can laun der them on short notice, and guarantee satisfaction on oui work. John Wing. The following Confederate veter ans can get their badges of honor bj calling at the office of Wm. P. Cal houn: Messrs. P. B. Day, A. S Sw?aringen and W. S.

Miss Kate's many friends will greatly miss her during her absence. ; As the representative of northern commission houses, Mr. Willis Duncan has been spending *.he past fortnight in Hampton and Barn yell looking after the shipment of canteloupes and watermelons to northern/ markets. He says wat?r melonshave been netting fnun ?100 to 8200 per car, which is an un usually good price. Mr. J. Rubenstein will inaugurate his clearance sale on Saturday next, lasting for a period of ten days. He has reduced prices verjT low ,30 as to move out all summer goods.

It is hoped that a very large number will go out to hear this very distin guished gentleman speak.

Candidates for matrimony, as well as candidates for office will be there in great nuJhbers. Mr. Grif fis wants it distinctly understood that no whiskey or disorder of air kind will be tolerated. Lost Two Good Mules. Mr. W. G. Wells has had the misfortune to lose two good mules within the past three weeks. One was found sick in the pasture about three weeks ago and died soon after being carried to the house. Thc other one was taken sick while com ing home with a load from Augus ta last Thursday. Mr. Wells brought the mule to Edgefield for treatment but it died in a few minutes after reaching town. The loss of two good mules is very heavy, especially before work in the crop has been completed. Official Corn Inspector. Judging from the number of in vitations that the editor of The Ad vertiser is receiving from far and near to inspect fine corn, it seems that he has by common consent been appointed-official corn*inspector for the county. In order to accept all of the very kind invitations we will have to buy, beg or ^borrow an auto mobile, or send for Wright and his airship. But an airship would hard ly be safe7as it might become en-j tangled in some of the tall prize corn that can be seen bert: and yon der over the county. The excessive | rain has caused much ot* the petted corn to grow taller than its owner desired. Well, seriously, the writer purposes visiting many parts of the county during the next few weeks, as we desire to see as much of the fine corn as possibler-We'Tfave been~ making corn a study-a ?hobby, if you please-during the [past two years, therefore to our eyes there is nothing more attractive or more in spiring than a field of very fine corn, which can be seen on ajmost every | farm this year. t)o not be surprised if The Advertiser's airship should alight at your front gate almost any day now. The ladies will find Mrs. Hatcher at the DuBose Hotel. She will be glad to see them at any time. She will keep up her beauty work. Bring your combings along and have a braid made.-Ad.
