Iron City Locals.
Mr. Ed Spooner and his sister,
Mrs. Ingram, were in our city Satur-
day.
We regret to learn that Mr. T. J.
Spooler is very ill of pneumonia at
the home of his sister, Mrs. Horne
a few miles above Iron City.
Mr. J. J. Spooner who was shot
last week is improving rapidly, and
will probably; be up in a few days.
His wounds are not a« serious as
wa» at first thought, dangerous
thoagh they were.
From the amount of fCrtilizeie
farmers, are hauling out, it seems
that a big cotton crop will be plan
ted. Our enterprising firm, Striok
land and Cordell, are selling most ot
the fertilizers. Their goods always
give esttietaction, as they know their
business’;
The new belt at- the
chnrch here rang
Methodist
Snnday for the
first time. It is quite up-to-date,
and its sweet tones cannot be sur
passed in this section. There is no
excuse along that line for failure to
attend church now, as it can be heard
for miles around.
Our school coatinnes to flourish.
We have several students hoarding
here. We are glad that people ap
preciate the advantages to be gained
by sending their children to this
school. Our greatest need now is.a
good music teacher, which we hope
to secure in a few days. t
Strickland snd Lane’s cabbage
patch is now a pretty sight indeed.
If they oontinue to grow as at pres
ent, the oabbage will be ready for
shipping m thirty days- Let others
toy this business, as it is exceedingly
profitable, and both onr soil snd Ch-

their growth.
' It is cane planting time, which
means great fun for the ohildren.
We think the “Man in the Back,
woods about right ft> the. dispensa
ry question. We hfre to kear more
from him and others on the subject.
If there were more dispensaries and
.schools od the plan of ours at Iron
City, there would be less ignorance
and far less drunkenness than are
found at present. ‘
We are glad to note that Mf; H,’
Hurst is improving since the skillful
operation performed last Friday by
Drs. Chason and Spangler of Donal-
sonville, Bridges ot Brinson, and
Richardson of Iron City. He has
been seriously ill for several weeks
from pneumonia following measles,
but he is thought to be now k on the
road to.recovery.
The death of Mrs. Rabon whioh
occurred here Tuesday afternoon.
Mar. 1, was a sad blow to the town
and community. She bad been sick
only a few days, but pneumonia
quickly did its fatal wdftc. 8he was
the wife of our esteemed citizen, Mr.
J. D. Rabon, a prominent turpen
tine man, and the daughter of Mr.
Q, A. Phillips, of Rock Pond dis
trict. The funeral at Brinson Wed
nesday afternoon was largely atten
ded, and many relatives snd friends
mourn the death of this excellent
lady who was loved by all who knew
her.

Monday night with her schoolmate,
Miss Dollie Stallings.
Miss Mvrtice Faircloth spent Sat
urday and Sunday past with her

Quite a large crowd attended ser
