ducting the funeral services. A number

The Greenville News of last Saturday
says: "An additional convenience is to be
extended to the towns on the Columbia &
Greenville Road between this city and
Walhalla. A regular daily mail service is
to be established on the Blue Ridge train
which now .reaches here from Anderson
at 12 o'clock and returns at 2.30 p. m. It
will he known as the 'Greenville and Wal?
halla Railroad Postal Route,' and N. L.
Fant, who is route agent on the Blue
Ridge will be the agent on the new route.
The new regulation goes into effect next
Monday, the 21st inst. This will give two
mails a day to and from Greenville, reach?
ing Grove Station, Piedmont, Pelzer, Wil
liamrton, Belton, Anderson, Pendleton,
Seneca and Walhalla. The addition of
mail facilities makes the special schedule'
more of a fixture than ever."
Last Sunday night the barn and stables,
together with a large lot of corn and fod?
der, of Mr. David Garrison, who resides
near Honea Path, were destroyed by fire.
Six cows and a mule, which were con?
fined in the stables, were also burned.
The fire was believed to be the work of an
incendiary, and suspicion at once rested
upon a negro boy, who resides with Mr.
Garrison. This negro, it seems, had stolen
a finger ring from a member of Mr. Gar?
rison's family, and he was to be tried for
the theft on Monday. In the meantime
he determined to be revenged for his ar
'rest, and set fire to Mr. Garrtson's premi?
ses, with the above result. On Tuesday
night the report reached Anderson that
the negro had confessed to the burning,
and bad implicated another negro and a
' white man. Both negroes had been ar?
rested, but the white man had fled. There
Is considerable excitement in the neigh?
borhood over tho burning, and we are told
by a gentleman who was at Honea Path
on Tuesday that if the proof against the
prisoners was established beyond a doubt,
there was strong talk of lynching them.
The prisoners had not been brought to
Jail Wednesday morning, and hp to the
hour of going to press we were unable to
get any further information.

In formation has been received that Mr.
Samuel W. Smith, who resides three or
four miles northeast of this plane, way se?
verely wounded Thursday, 17th iust., by a
gun in the hands of his son. The circum?
stances, as reported, are as follows: Mr.
Smith, accompanied by his son, had been
to the creek duck hunting, and in return?
ing the young man, who was so mewhat
behind his father, in attempting to let the
hammer of his gun down, the latter was
discharged, the load taking effect in Mr,
Smith's shoulder and side of face and neck,
fearfully tearing and lacerating the flesh.
At last accounts Mr. Smith was resting
easier, and hopes of his speedy recovery
are entertained by his numerous friends.
On Saturday morning, 19th inst., as the
west-bound freight train, No. 19, W. C.
Lee conductor, was passing the water tank
at Six and Twenty bridge, six miles north?
west of Anderson, Mr. Samuel Nicely,
who was flag man on said train, was killed
in the most horrible manner. Section
master Russell, who was at work near by,
promptly notified Coroner Nance, who
came and empanelled a jury of inquest,
with Mr. S. L. Eskew foreman. The
jury, after viewing the body as it lay by
the road side, gave it in charge of Mr.
Geo. M. Tolly for preparation for burial.
After hearing the testimony of several
witnesses the jury returned the following
verdict: "That the said Samuel Nicely
came to his death by being knocked off the
train by the pipe that conveys the water
from the tank to the engine, and being mn
over by the cars." The railroad authori?
ties rendered all the assistance they could,
by placing the section force and material
train No. 2 at the disposal of the Coroner
and jury, and conveying the remains to
Pendleton, the home of deceased.
Mr. Nicely was the second one killed the
same morning by the same train, but un?
der different Conductor and Engineer, a
brake-man having been killed at Green?
wood while in the act of uncoupling a car.
The railroad authorities should, and
doubtless will, take steps at an early day
to have the tank pipes so adjusted as to
obviate the danger of train men being
knocked off and killed.
The farmers have begun to sow wheat,
and are moving things around pretty live?
ly, trying to get through while the weather

the larger portion is sold.
This seems to be an excellent year for
acorns. The woods are full, and the earth
under the largest trees is literally covered
with them. The black birds are getting to
be pretty numerous in consequence of the
acorns, and pigeo ns are next in order.

Mr. W. J. Bobbins has recently added

the Broadway trestle. He now has a body
of- valuable farming lands, which cost him
$6,500, and still he is bidding fifteen Idol?
lars per acre for other adjacent lands,
which he will no doubt purchase in a few
days. He will move, report says, at an
date to his new possessions, where he will
run a six or eight mule farm, under his
own skillful and watohful eye. It is need?
less for us.to speak of him as a farmer,
for he is too well known to many of your
readers to be one of the best, and is also
possessed of great capacities for other bus?
iness. )

chased a ten dollar library. Besides the
books composing the library, the Ameri?
can Baptist Publication Society, of Phila?
delphia, at the solicitation of the Superin?
tendent, sent us several other interesting
volumes, for which the whole school feels
very grateful. The good Lord, as well as
everybody else, loves a cheerful giver.
The closing exercises of the school, on
last Sunday afternoon, were happily and
agreeably interrupted by Mrs. B. B. Brea
zeale who rose-unexpectedly to tho Super?
intendent, and made some very appropri?
ate and felicitous remarks, touching upon
his faithfulness in tho great and good
cause of the Sunday School, and at tho
conclusion of which she presented him
with a nice silver cup, coming from the
married women of tho School, as an ex?
pression of their high appreciation of his
services, to which the Colonel, with eyes
full of tears, made a happy and feeling
response. Every one, both young and
old, joined heartily In the demonstration.
Faithfulness to duty is always rewarded.

Uncle Billy Holmes, long since gone
to his reward, was for many years cryer
for the superior Court at Anderson, S. C.
Uncle Billy was a littlo hard of hearing.
An old citizen of Anderson County tells
us the following joke on the old man,
that occurred many years before the war.
He was told to call "Arabella Hanks."
Not hearing, he put his hand to his ear
and asked, "Who?" He was told iu a
louder tone, "Arabella Hanks!" Going
to tho door he cried: "Yaller Belly
Shanks!?Yaller Belly Shanks .'?Yaller
Belly Shanks!?don't answer." On an?
other occasion the discordant notes of a
jackass' bray annoyed the judge, and he
ordered the cryer to tell the owner to
take that jackass out of town. Stepping
to the door, Uncle Billy cried mechanical?
ly in his usual manner: "Take that
jackass out |of town !?take that jackass
out of town !?don't answer!" The mer?
riment thereat disturbed the proceedings
of the court more than the balaam did.
On Monday a young darkey in his
teens stepped in Williams' store. One of
the clerks laid a half cremated cigar on
the counter to wait upon a customer.
The darkey saw it, coveted it, and slyly
picked it up. The clerk noticed the pro?
cedure, and concluded to give the darkey
a scare. Accusing him of larceny, he ran
to the door and called for Marshal Carter.
The thoroughly frightened negro made a
break for the back door, and jumping the
fence, crossed lots until he reached How
ell street, down wliich he ran like a quar?
ter horse, passing the residence of High
Sheriff Jas. Roberts. Jim saw him, and
naturally concluded that he had either
stolen something valuable or killed some?
body, so he put out after the fleeing dar?
key with hi3 utmost speed. Away they
sped, o'er hill and dale to the woods be?
yond. Nor did Jim stop to admire the
gorgeous tints of the autumnal forest or
listen to the glad songs of the woodland
choirsters ; nor heeded he the whispering
of tho gentle zephyrs through the sway?
ing tree tops, nor the mournful sighing of
the sombre pines; noticed he not the af?
frighted rabbit as it darted from under his
feet, nor the whirr of the partridge's sud?
den flight; nor recked he that his Sun?
day shoes and best pants were suffering
from contact with marshy mud and
tangled briars. Nary time once?he
wanted that nigger! But if Jim ran fast
the negro ran faster, and after running
him for more than two miles, he gave up
the chase and returned to town a tired if
not a wiser man. .Tim's remarks explo?
ded like dynamite, when he learned that
the negro was innocent of crime. Jim
says he doesn't know of but one bigger
fool than that nigger. Conundrum?

If you are suffering with General Debili?
ty, feel sick, languid and good-for-nothing,
don't fail to get of your druggist a bottle
of Westmoreland's Calisaya Tonic. It will
do you good.
Faibview Post Office, June 12, 1883.
Messrs. Westmoreland Bros.?Gentle?
men : I bought a bottle of your Calisaya
Tonic some time ago for my daughter who
was suffering with a headache almost con?
stantly, had no appetite, and was suffering
with general debility. It gives me great
pleasure to state to you that she is now en?
tirely well, and did not take any other
medicine except your Tonic, and I don't
hesitate to recommend it as a good medi?
cine. Very respectfully,
D. M. PEDEN.
Use Dr. Dukes' Anti-Bilious Wafers in
connection with the Tonic if your liver is
out of order.

THE REASONS WHY?
FOR twelve years the New York Cash
Store has enjoyed the reputation of keep?
ing the best stock and selling at the lowest
prices. Since the opening of the New York
House of Cohen, Arnstein & Bonn, at the
corner of 3rd Avenue and 56th Street, the
New York Cash Store has better facilities
than ever of obtaining bargains, and that
is one reason why M. B. Arnstein is doing
snch a big business this Fall. Another
reason is his determination to lead in the
lead, underbuy and undersell, offer the
best Goods for the least money, and at all
times give bis customers the benefit of his
cheap purchases.
FOR THIS WEEK
the following Bargains will be offered:
.50 pieces of beautiful Dress Goods?fine
twilled or fancy designs, the filling guaran?
teed to be pure wool?at only 12c a yard.
25 pieces of fine Tricot Flannels, in the
new shades of green, navy, black, garnet,
and brown, at only 20c a yard.
20 pieces of full yard wide Broadwale
and English Suitings reduced from 35c to
25c a yard.
15 pieces of yard wide English Cash?
mere?beautiful shades and fine texture
heretofore sold by all at 40c, now only 25c
a yard.
Christmas i3 coming, and we are anxious
to dispose of our large stock of Dross
Goods. Everybody can get a bargain, if J
they will only come to the New York
Cash Store. Black Cashmeres, black and
colored Velvets and Plushes, black and
faucy Silks will be offered at the lowest
closing out prices.
Don't forget our Carpets and Rugs?just
the thing for Christmas presents.
Thousands of yards of dark Winter
Calicoes will be disposed of at 2ic a yard.
A big bargain in Sea Islands and Canton
Flannels at 8Jc a yard.
Another invoice of Ladies' Fine Under
vests at 50c each.
200 more Bustles to be sold at.a dime.
No end to the Pins !?3 papers for 5c.
New lot of Jerseys, in all colors, at 75c
only.
Ladies, come and see the pretty Straw
Hats, in new shapes, at only 25c each.
They won't last long at such a price.
For Misses and Children we have a beau?
tiful lot of Jackets, Hoods and Caps, which
we are anxious to close out before the sea?
son is over.
We have reduced the prices of our Cloaks
and Wraps to such a figure that every
Lady can afford to obtain one or.more of
our handsome styles.
In Ladies' and Children's Shoes we can
beat the world! We keep only the best
make, and sell at a close profit.
"I want a Suit, too," is a frequent remark
in our Store. No wonder the gentlemen
appreciate our fino stock of Clothing, which
we offer much below regular Clothing
Store prices; it is a side-show with us, but
we sell lots of Suits and Overcoats. Why ?
Because they are the cheapest in Town,
FOR CHRISTMAS !
