Amount of Guano Sold.
It was thought during the early part
of the present year that the amount of
guano used this year would be much
less than last year. A gentleman a few
weeks ago procured from the dealers
here the number of tons sold last year
and the number sold this year. In
1891 there were 2,791 tons sold at New -

OUR PROSPERITY LETTER.
An Elopement-The Painter's Brush-To
mato Plants.
[Correspondence Herald and News.]
PROSPERITY, May 9, 1892.
1 The peach crop is abundant.
Thousands and thousands of tomato
plants are awaiting the early rains for
transplanting.
The painter's bruLh in the hand of
R. E. Brannan is adding a much needed
beauty to Grace church.
Business among the merchants is as
good as ever at this season. Spring
bats and spring dresses will sell.
The wheat and oat crop is needing
rain badly; in fact the oats are suffer
ing, and unless some refreshing show
ers will soon give the much needed re
lief the crop will be cut short by the
drought.
The preliminary hearing in the case
of the State vs. Lawson Counts ft'r
burglary will be held to-day. Geo. B.
Cromer represents the defendant and
Col. Schumpert the State. The evi
deuce for the State seems to be conclu
sive.
The stands of cotton on sandy light
lands is good, and in some cases hoeing
has begun. Seed planted in clay lands
before the rains in April eannot possi
bly make a stand. The stands of corn
are fair. Complaints of its dying come
from some localities.
Rev. Foster Bradley, of Due West,
preached a series of four ser:,ons in
the A. R. P. church here, beginning on
Friday night. OnSaturday be preached
again, and on Sunday he preached
twice. vn Sunday morning the sacra
ment of the Lord's Supper was admin
istered to quite a number of communi
cants. The services were well attended
and it is hoped much good has been
done.
A sensational elopement occurred in
town last evening (Sunday). As the
scholars in Grace church Sunday-school
went to their respective places for reci
tations, Mr. Sidney D. Duncan and
1i-s Rosa Simpson left the church,
walked a short distance to where there
was a buggy in waiting, which they
occupied, drove four miles to the Rev.
l M. J. Epting's, who, after the usual
ceremony in such cases, pronounced
them maa and wife. They returned
and took lodgings at the Prosperity
Hotel, where they are happy und se

fMiss Lizzie Zobel returned last week
from Charleston.
Dr. S. G. Welch went to Columbia
last week by private conveyance.
The friends of Miss Eloise Welch
will be pleased to learn that in the re
cent examination she went beyond the
high standard-96, fixed by the Presi
dent of Columbia Female College, with
the hope of doing away with the "first
honor" and simply allowing the young
ladies to graduate with the distinction
their meiiis deserve. Miss Welch is in
a class of sixteen bright girls, several
Sof whom very nearly reached the shin
ing mark, and but one, beside Miss
Welch, went over, and that one was
Miss Ellerbe. It was the president's
wish, we believe, that none might
reach it, in order, we presume, to do
Saway with the excitement and nervous
Sanxiety attending the closing days.
Col- L. J- AlIred Writes'
BI am in my seventy-third year, and
for fifty years I have been a great
sufferer from indigestion, constipation
and billiousness. I have tried all the
-remedies advertised for these diseases
and got no permanent relief. About
one year ago the disease assuming a
more severe and dangerous form, I
became very weak and lost flesh rapid
ly, I commenced using Dr. H. Mozley's
Lemon Elixir. I gained twelve pounds
in three months. My strength and

Newberry Rifles' Hot Supper.
The hot supper given on last Tuesday
night for the benefit of the Newberry
Rifles was in every respect a great suc
cess. The people of the town never
fail to respond when called on by the
boys. Although gotten up in a very
short time, the supper was all that
could be wished for, and everything
passed off as pleasantly as possible.
The splendid band of music added
greatly to the occasion. One very
interesting feature of the evening was
voting for the prettiest young lady in
the hall, the winner to be presented
with a beautiful cake. The successful
young lady was Miss Emma Hale, of
Clinton, S. C. The cake was presented
by Capt. S. J. McCaughrin, who, of
course, always knows just what to say
under such circumstances.
The net proceeds of the supper were
$85. This will go towards getting uni
forms for the Rifles, which they are
very much in need of.
After the sup r had Leeen served the
hall was cleared, and the young people
enjoyed themsolves for several hours,
engaging in a most delightful dance.
The Rifles are making a strong effort
to get a Confederate grey uniform, and
they deserve the support of the town.
Let every one help the boys as much
as possible.
That "Tired Feeling."
The newspapers are having a good
deal of fun nowadays over that "tired
feeling," so much spoken of in medical
adverttsements, in connection with the
ill-health of females. It may be a source
of hilarity to witty paragraphers, but
not so to suffering women, who by
overwork, antd a disregard of the laws
of health, have lapsed into a condition
bordering on invalidism. What most
women need is to be relieved of some of
the slavish work that is piled on them,
and a free, but judicious use of streng
thening tonics, such as P. P. P. (Prick
ly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium), the
greatest blood purifier and invigorator
in use. Superb as a builder up of wo
men, bringing back lost energy to the
body, and color to faded cheeks, restor
ing the appetite, and thus renewing in
her tha' healthy vitality long lost. P.
P. P. cures all blood diseases, such as
Rheumatism, Syphillis, Gout, Scrofula,
and all ulcerous affections, even van
quishing that melancholy enemy of
man, Dyspepsia. All druggists sell it.
The medical fratertiity, backed up by
carefully compiled statistics, is almost
a unit in declaring that a moderate use
of stimulants conduces to long life. It
is also admitted that an old whiskey is
by far the best stimulant that can be
used. Leading physicians recommend
the I. WV. Harper Whiskey, because it
is pure, possessed of a superior flavor
and bouquet, and is not offered for sale
unti! it is old and thoroughly m-atured,

Snaday Trains to be Pat On the C. & G.
Road.
[The State, 9.h.1
There will be an important innova
tion in this State next Sunday, result
ing in great benefit and .onvenience to
the travelling public of this State and
other States.
Never has a passenger train been run
over the Columbia and Greenville road
on Sunday and the only attempt-to
run a special excursion on the upper
portion of the line made about six
years ago-was promptly put down by
the Railroad Commission. But next
Sunday the regular trains, including
all but the passenger train between
Laurens and New berry, will begin to
run on this road on Sunday the same
as any other day.
This is done in order to keep up the
connections of the new quick schedule
for Atlanta -which has just been ar
ranged to put a person leaving here in
the morning in Atlanta on the evening
of the same day, as already published
in the State.
There has been an idea for many
years that the charter of the Columbia
and Greenville road would not allow
the running of trains on the road on
Sunday, but The State has the above
on the authority of one of the officials
of the road, and he says that the char
ter has no such provision, and the only
probable result that wil. come from the
inauguration of the Sunday trains will
be the loss of some land granted origin
ally to the road.
The new arrangement will be a boon
to the traveling public and Columbia's
railway advantages will be proportion
ately increased.

Mr. J. A. Boland and family have
been on a visit to Mr. L. C. Singley

Mr and Mrs A. A. Nates spent Satur
day in Newberry. The Newberry

We are requested to state that there
will be no preaching in the academy
next Sabbath afternoon owning to a
communion meeting to be held at
Cannon Creek churcu on that day.
Rev. M. M. Kinard, of Columbia,
spent a few days under the parental
roof here last week. We were glad to
see him in good health and have a
brotherly shake of his hand again. Mr.
Kinard returned to Columbia on Sat
urday.
Misses Mary and Eugenia Long, of
Galman community, spent a few days
with relatives and friends in our little
village .community last week. Come
again girls while the flowers are bloom

more sweet bouquets.
A few of the boys enjoyed an oyster
supper at Prof. J. S. Wheeler's resi
dence on Saturday night. The boys
had quite a pleasant time and ate oys

for an invitation and we regret very
much that it wasn't suitable for us to
be present.
Messrs. Drayton D. Cook and J.
Willie Kinard open; a few days over
at Fredonia last week, the guest of
Mr. J. T. P. Crossons' family. The
boys report having enjoyed quite,.
pleasant time and we guess they will
be anxious to repay their visit soon, as
they speak very encouragingly of the
young ladies of Lexington County.
We have had some very warm
weather down here for a few days and
overcoats are no longer i- demand for
this season. It would seem that the
fruit crop is now safe from any more
cold weather. The earth is getting
dry and dusty. Small grain is needing
rain badly and should the rain hold
up a short while longer the grain crops
will be cut off considerably. The crops
generally are needing rain in order to
get a good stand. A good _season of
rain would be a welco'ne visitor just
now. SIGMA.

'rIE CANNING INDUSTRY.
Fit st Year's Work of the Prosperity Fac
tory---Gratifying Results.
PROSPERITY, May 5.-The annual
meeting of the stockholders of Pros
perity canning factory was held on the
3d inst. The following items of inter
est were gleaned from the reports of the
treasurer and board of directors: The I
company canned last season (its first 1
report' 1,200 bushels of tomatoes, 473
bushels of okra, 129 bushels of apples
and 249 bushels of peaches, which cost
in the aggregate $682.85. The amount
paid cut for labor is $415.46; amount
paid for wood, $30. The number of
bushels of all fruits and vegetables used t
was 2.051, which filled the following 4
kinds of cans and number: 18,487 three
pound cans okra and tomatoes; 1,476
two pound cans okra and tomatoes;
3,912 three pound cans peaches; 2,379 <
two pound caus peaches; 4,968 three l
pound cans apples; 4,656 two pound
cans okra; 4,348 three pound cans to
matoes. Total cans put up, 43,226. The ]
report of the board of directors was so
satisfactory and encouraging that im
mediate steps were taken to double the
capacity of the factor, and to confine
the operations strictly to the use of to
matoes and peaches. It has been dem
onstrated that simple tomatoes and
peaches are far the best sellers, and that j
2-pound cans tomatoes sell better than1
3-pound cans. The tomatoes grown
and canned here are superior to any
that have ever been put on this mar -
ket. The stockholders have adopted a
beautiful label, rich in color, bearing
the trade mark, "Palmetto Brand,"
and representing the Palmetto monu
ment in the capitol grounds. Prepara-1
tions are being made to plant fifty acres
in tomatoes by the company. Persons
riot connected with the company will
also plant quite a quantity. Messrs.
D. H. Wheeler, A. H. Kohn, L. S.
Bowers, H. C. Moseley, A. G. Wise, A.
H. Hawkins, Dr. A. F. Langford and
H. S. Boozer were elected a board of

elected treasurer. The following officers
were then elected by the boerd: A- H.

ome straw in a banana crate in rear of

A Card.
To the Democratic Voters of New
erry County: Having announced my
ielf as a candidate for sheriff, and as I
ill not have time to canvass the coun
:y, I take this method of making a few
tatements in regard to my candi
lacy.
In the first place, I must say that I
ee'gnize the other five candidates as
onorable and true men, and no word
f disparagement shall emanate from
ne about either one of them. However,
: did not start out to electioneer for
~hem. I will say no more of their
nerits.
I am out as a candidate for Sheriff on
Lhe merits of W. A. Hill as a freeman
d a Democrat. No more-No less. I
uave no claim on the people that 1
bould ask them for office further than
his: I have always tried to do my duty
n my humble way as an honest and
:onscientious citizen.
I shall in the future, as I have al
ays done in the past, support the
Democratic candidates of my choice,
ccording to the dictates of my own
~onscience, and no consideration-not
ven the offic'e of .'heriff-will change
y position. I have never "fit, bled
nd died" for my country, and am not
ver anxious to do anything of that
;ind now. Neither do I claim that it
s the great love I have for the people,
which prompts me to aspire to oficee. I
on't claim to be more honest or more
~ompetent than the other candidates
'or sheriff. But I do say that I will be
*rank and honest with you in this mat
I believe I am fully competent to fill
he office, and I want to be your sher
ff just for what money the office pays.
ow while I would feel exceedingly
roud of the honor to be your choice, I
will not "run with the hare and bark
ith the hounds."
Neither will I "crook the pregnant
inges of the knees that thrift may
ollow fawning": I don't propose to go
egging for votes, neither do I propose
o treat to whiskey, cigars and barbe
ue dinners for votes. If you think me
~ompetent and worthy of the trust, I
ould feel proud of your support. If
o think there is a worthier candi
late-why vote for him, and I will be
he last one to fall out with you about
I have only one promise to make
ou and that is this: If I should be so
ortunate as to be your choice, I will do
11 in my power to make you a good
nd efficient officer.
Respect fully,
