AT LEBAXOX CHURCH.
For more than a week Rev. YV. K.
Boggp, the evan<jelin of Bethel Presbytery,
has been preaching day and
night to large and attentive audiences
at this church. His sermons hare
created great interest and much good
has been done in arousing the members
of the church, as well as bringing
others iuto the fold. The gospel message
delivered by this ambassador of
Christ has touched the hearts ot all
ages and conditions. The little child,
the vontn ana maiaen, as wen as me
man of mature age, heard and accepted
the glad news of *alvation. As a
result of the meeting eight precious
souls heve professed their faith in
Chiist and enlisted under his banner.

IXcCRAXCE ITEMS.
Messrs. Ketchin & Cathcart h&v?
reached a settlement with the Liverpool
and London and Globe Insurance
Co. through its adjuiter. Mr. JE. Or.
Seibles. Their claim was for $2,000,
for which they get $1,967.89. Thi?
was promptly done and wa3 very
satisfactory to the insured.
Messrs. Caldwell & Ru ft'have about
settled their loises by the recent fire
with the companies in which they
were insured. The amount of goods
lost was satisfactorily adjmted with
the several adjusters. The damage^on
their goods, that were saved, was left
to abitration and this too was satisfactorily
settled. Mr. Phillips, of

companies, and Mr. T. II.

in a few days.

The County Board of Control met
on Monday and at that meeting received
communications from the councils
of Winnsboro and llidgeway advising
the Board of the action and intention
of the councils of these two
places. We publish the communication
which were received by the Board
in full below:
Winnsbouo, i?. C., Jan. 15, 1894.
To the County Board of Control:

John Smith, whose many thefts have
Viim fn Iia rp.irpd in iail. and
whose crimes culminated in his killing*
a negro woman in Columbia a few
days ago, was arrested here Thursday
morning by Policeman McMaster.
It seems that he came up from Columbia
"Wednesday night, and made
some inquiries at tne depot for the
home of a colored man in town.
About eleven exlock Thursday morninnf
Tnfonrlanf JTnrrian ft telfi
"1VIIUKU, ?
j gram from the Chief of Police of
Columbia giving a description of the
murderer and asking for his arrest.
Mr. McMaster, having overheard the
negro's conversation at the depot the
previous evening, knew about where
to find him, and in less than an hour
had him safely locked up. Smith submitted
very willingly to his arrest.
On his war, however, to the guardhouse,
he endeavored to use his "gun",
but found the officer too quick for
him. Coming quietly along he suddenly
jumped a few feet away, faced
Mr. McMaster, and pulled his pistoi.
As he did so, Mr. McMaster covered
him and told him to drop his weapon
or he would kill him. This, the negro
very wisely concluded to do. llr.
McMaster then told him that he would
be shot if he attempted te run. He
replied with an oath that he didn't
care, that he would just as soon die
one way as another.
In response to a few questions from
Capt. Jordan the negro admitted that
he was John Smith and coiifessed that
he shot the woman. He says though
that the shooting was accidental. As
soon as this information was obtained
J a telegram was sent to Chief RadclifFc
telling him of the arrest. In response
to this Jailor Coieman came up on the
afternoon train and took the prisoner
to Columbia Friday morning. Smith
* ' - * . i ?-? af Katyia I
will ne aouDi reei very uiuuu au uumv
in jail there as Mr. Coleman ?ays lie
has been raised behind the bars.
Noah Martin, who is also implicated
in the murder, has, according to Smith,
skipped for the North. It is probable
though that he will b? caught before
he gets much further than Charlotte.
Mr. McMaster deserves credit for
his quick and efficient work.
The State of Friday says that John
Smith is held for the murder of Melyina
Adams. The verdict of the jury
at the coroner's inquest wat to that
effect.
DEATH OF MRS. M. M. EVANS.
Mrs. M. M. Evans breathed her last
at the residence of her son-in-law, Mr.
W. J. Elliott, about 9.45 on Tuesday
morning. Mrs. Evans was the relict
j of Mr. Jno. "W. Evans, who died about
l the year 1886. Mrs. Evans was a sister
: of the late Gladnev P. Martin and
' Mrs. E. S. Davis, the latter being the
only living member of the family at
present. She was about sixty-nine
years of age. Her death was daily
expected. She fell while attempting
to carry out a basin of water and
noTror <rnf. nn nn hnr feet asrain. She
&vv ? v
contracted the gripp after her fall and
it was evident to her family iliat her
patient, enduring, Christian spirit
would soon take its flight. She never
murmured nor complained, and even
wh#n unable to turn her frail body
over in bed would sometimes lie and
endure pain, for fear of giving seme
one trouble, rather than ask to have
her position changed. She died without.
.m effort or a struarsrle. Mrs. Evans
was a member of Salem (Presbyterian)
Church, where her remains wero laid
to rest on Wednesday by the side of
her husband.
Fearing that there would be no minister
at Salem Church to conduct the
funeral service a short one was held
Wednesday morning at the residence
of Mr. Elliott. It was conducted by
Dr. Jordan, assisted by Rev. C. E.
McDonald.
The death of Mrs. Evans made a
double bereavement to the family of
Mr. A. M. Wallace. Mrs. Dr. Wallace.
the mother of Mr. Wallace, preceded
Mrs. Evans, who is Mrs. A. M.
Wallaces mother, only about twenty
hours. So the mother of both husband
and wife were lying dead at the
same time. Such bereavement is uncommon,
but the families of both
parents hare the blessed consolation
that these two weary spirits have gone
to that rest prepared for the children

Oh, grave! where is thy victory.
CORRECTION AND PERSONALS.
White Oak, S. C., Jan. 13.?Year
' correspondent "B," datad December
30, 1893, made an error that doei a
great injustice to our community, viz.:
*' We have had teveral dances and
oilier entertainments duriug the holi|
days, which the young people enjoyed
j very aauch."
j Allow me to *ay that there wasn't
f a dance in White Oak during the
j holidays. Such entertainments are
| something of the past. Our beloved
f pastor, Rev. J. A Smith, hai too
| much influence over hi? flock for such
thiug? as dances. Wc, therefore, feel
"B" has done hiui an injustice and beg
leave to nake known that that part of
his notes was a mistake. W? feel that
w* were very fortunate in getting the
services of Mr. Smith and do not care
to have any one accusing his congregation
ot any such thing as dancing.
We regret very muck to say that
Dr. W. F. Mitchell, who has been
practicing in this community for the
i*af four v??ara. more or less has gone
to New Hope, where he will continue
bis profession. Dr. Mitchell has been
err taithful and successful iu restoring
strength and health to ?hc
afflicted of his neighborhood. We
swish him a pleasant and profitabie
] future in his new field of labor, and
j i rust he may be as successful there as
n he has been here, lie leaves this

j prominent physician may loon come
$ forth to take charge.

[ No doubt these were the thoughts of
! many throughout the laud as they
\ -watched the old year die. We should
" "be thankful, though, that we hare
- 5 stood those trials and disappointments
i that, notwithstanding short crops and
:I low prices, we paid the most <rf our
just debts, that we stood the financial
panic remarkably well; moreover
while we might have been destroyed
by the mighty cyclones that swept the
land, through the gooduess of Almighty
God we are still spared to renew
the battle of life.
Sociables are still raging in our
neighborhood. It doesn't seem that
hard times lias any effect whatever cn
them.
A sociable was given at Mr. E. P.
Jenkins'on Thursday evening where
the young people of the community
mingled together and spent several
hours very pleasantly in various games
of amusements, etc.
Another sociable wa- given on Monday
night at Mr T. W. Mellichamp's.
Here chit chat, soft talk, parlor games,
and numberless other amusements
were indulged in by a i present, licfreshtneuls
were also serred. Our
i wish is that wc may be so lucky a.? to
soon again be permitted to spend such
pleasant evenings.

THE IKBY PLAN.
{Neitherry Herald and Neves.)
The Irby plan as set forth in the
resolutions of the Laurens Alliance
does not seem to meet the approval of
all of the leaders. The Columbia correspondent
of the Neics and Courier
gives the following- as the statement of
a State officer: "We have nothing
but Democratic clubs in tlis State. The
minority has come in with us, joined
ur ranks as members of our clubs and
submitted to defeat. We canrot now
throw them overboard. I am opposed
to a July Convention, such as is proT\/Nonrl

^UOV/U j MUU ?f ASA ucy vr v? J .......
hare to defeat iis purposes There is
row 110 i?red for such a convention.
There was, I believe, necessity for a
March Convention. "We then had a
platform to adopt and principles to announce;
wc cannot consistently hold a
factional Convention to nominate or
suggest any candidates. The whole
thing is wrong."
Well, now truly, this is refreshing.
A State officer under the present administration
willing to wipe out factional
lines and opposed to a factional
convention. He had best not let his
name be known.
It is none of our fight. Our hope is
that the people will after awhile wake
up to a realization of the fact that all
theie conventions and factions aud factional
fights are not benefiting them,
and only the leaders are getting the
plums. "

Week after week, year after
year, you plod a beaten path,
from your home to your work
and back again. No hope for
the future, nothing ahead but
work, work, work, and a still !
darker prospect for your family !
should you die. A 20-year j
Tontine Policy in the
Equitable Life
will give you something to live
for; a bright star to look ahead
to; an end to toil when you
are no longer able to follow the
beaten path of drudgery; an
assurance that your wife and
children will be provided for at
your death. Isn't it worth con
' sidering? For tacts ana figures
