THE NEW DEPOT.
We learn from a reliable source that .
the new passenger depot is really tot
.be built and that work on it will be
begun soon. The depot will cost
:about $1,800 and is to be very muchA
like the Rock Hill station. The depoti
-will be built on the lower end of the
lot bought by the railroad company,
and as the lot is much higher than the
railroad, steps will lead from the
platform down to the track. Although
a petition was circulated by some of
the citizens requesting that the depot
should not be moved the railroad
company have not changed their
plans, as they feel the need of a new
station, Winnsboro being one of the
few places on this line that has not ai
modern depot. .
MT, ZION INSTITUTE.
Mt. Zion Institute is in a most flour
ishing condition this year and things
are running along very smoothly. This
year there are 1%5 pupils in attendance I
-more than thete were last year-andI
twenty-six of these scholars are from
places cutside of this school district.1
The school has a splendid corps of
teacners, -and the principal, Prof.
Witherow, is working hard for the
good of the school, and the increase
in the attendance this year is the fruits1
of his labors.
On Friday at 1.30 o'clock Rev. J. D.
Crout, of the Mettedist Church, de
livered a lecture to the scholars, which1
was both instructive and entertaining.
Prof. Witherow will make an effort to
h~ive a lectura delivered every Friday.
Some of our pr'>minent men will be
asked to deliver these lectures. The1
parents and friends of the children
should attend these lectures and should
encourage inl every way all efforts to
build up and perfect the institution.
No reports were issued for the first
mo:ith, but wil be given out at the
end of the second month. The honor
roll will also be published.

DEATH OF MISS ESTHER DAVIS.
The sad tidings of the death of Miss
sther Davis, the youngest daughter
f Col. Bunyan Davis, of Killians,
vill be heard with deep regret by the
nany friends of Gol. Davis' family in
Vinnsboro, and the sympathy of the
ommunity goes out to the family in
heir great affiction. We take the t
ollowing from the Columbia State:
Greenville, October 13.-After a lin
ering illness of several weeks, Miss
Psther Davis died this morning at the
ome of her aunt, Mrs. A. B. Sinkler,
n Highland avenue. For the last few
ears Miss Davis had been living in
reenville holding the position of
tenographer for Tbackston, Furman
Co. About two months ago, she
vent to Pelham to taks a similar posi
ion with the cotton mill and while I
here she was taken with fever, being
ater removed to Mrs. Sinkler's home1
n Greenville.
Miss Davis was the youngest daugh
er of Dr. Bunyan Davis. Mr. Thomast
r. Davis, of Killians, is her brother, r
iid her only sister is Miss Nancy (
)avis, of this place. The late John I;

most devoted member of the Episco

tery. In the absence of the rector, the
re. Byron Hlolly, who is in Washing
on, the funeral services will be con
Lucted by the Rev. W. T. Capers, of.
Lderson.
Mr. Thomas F. Davis had been here
luring his sister's sickness, but a few
lays ago was called home on business.

White there has been nothing ,tart
.ing or sensational iin our quiet- neigh
orhood, there are several changes
vhich must be chronicled. On Sep
ember 28th Mrs. R. J. Brice and
laughters, Misses Reble and -Jennie,
noved to Rock Hill, where they will
nake their home in the future. The1
~oung ladies have enstered Winthrop.
[t, is needless to state that we re
~retted 3 ery greatly to see them leav
ng us, and will miss them-all very
nch in New [Hope. Our best wishes
~ollow them in their new home.
Our sorrow at the loss of the above
amily was somewha&t comp~ensated by
:he pleasure we had of welcoming to.
2nr midst on the same day the pleasant
amily of Mr. Samuel Bi ice, recently
> Charlotte, N. C. We .hope they
will find life so pleasant! in New Hope
that they will conclude to make it
their permanent home. Mr. Brice,
on account of business engagements,
has not yet joined his fadiIly.
Mr. J. Walkup Douglass has re
u ned to his seminary studies at|
~rinceton. Mr. Douglass, who has
already spent two years in the semi
nary, preached for us scveral times
while at home and made a fine im
pression on all who heard him. :
Mr. J. Lunce Brice has also shaken
the dust of New Hope from his feet;
and gone to Rock Hill to enter into
the mercantile business. We trustI
and believe that there is sufficient at
traction to draw him back to. us oc
casionally. In fact, we bear that he
has already paid New Hope a fiying
visit, coming and going like the thief
in the night The purrpos of this
visit may be inferred from the Jact
that our only informant was a: youbg
lady. "Murder will faut." We wish
him much success in all of his 'underz
takings.
Dr. Jno W. Dodalass recently re.
tnrned to his studies in the South
Carolina Medical College. Although
the "Doctor" has spent only one year
in the business there are reports cur
rent of some remarkable curs. he ef
fected Ihis summer-on himself.
Miss Macie Stevenson contemplates
returning soon to her mission work'in
Tampico, Mexico. She intended to
return about the 1st of October, but
was prevented by the prevalence of
yellow fever -in Tampico. We think
it will be altogether unsafe for her to
return for several months yet.
Rumor says that :Miss Eugenia
Douglass will leave soon for Washing
ton, D. C., to take a. course in art
studies.
Miss Bessie Simonton leaves soon
to take charge of a school in the Brick
church neighborhood.
Mr. W. L. Rosborough has charge
of the Albion school.
Mr. W. Leon Rosborough is teach
ing the Grosbyville school.
Miss Martha Callicotte, who has
been spending some time with the
family of Rev. J. E. Johnston, has
returned to her home in .Mississippi.
