Warren will in a few days begin the erection of two neat new residences in town. lie will al so begin building his new mill. Mr. and Mrs. Dock Earp are the possessors of a fine new baby at their home and they are receiving the congratulations of their friends. The storm did a great deol of damage to cotton crops and the cane in this section. Lots of Turpeotme trees were also broken down. Mr. A. Y. Jones and Miss Smith went over to Bainbridge last Friday night to attend the lecture by Ben Tillman, but were disappointed that bo did not appear. Rev. J. I. D. Miller delivered an in teresting leoture at the K. of P, Hall last Friday night to a fair sized con gregation. The proceeds were given over to a fun I tor the establishment of a library. Mr. C. L- Funderburk was among those who took in the excursion to Savannah Monday. lie bad busi ness in that placo and took advan tage of the cheap rates to go. We understand that as yet no one has been elected to the vaoancy as principal ot the Brinson school for the fall term and it is probable that there will be no school earlier than January 1st. Rev. Mr. Miller has accepted his recall to the pastorate of the Baptist ohurch at this place, and the church has been apprised ol bis acceptance. We understand that a private study for the preacher will be erected at once near the church. The Stuart Lumber Co. are having their large saw mill at their place thoroughly improved and overhauled therefore the necessary delay in beginning operations has thrown a good many temporarily out of work. Great was the disappointment) not only to our city but to the people throughout this section at tbe inabil ity of Ben Tillman to leotore here on the evening scheduled. Quite a number of people from the surround ing towns came over to attend but finding themselves doomed to disap pointment in one way they proceed ed to enjoy themselves in others. Managers Tonge and Prevatte seem ed to have encountered a hoodoo in the operatio line this season.
