- ary notice of our Dr. Willie Mathews

- ed. thorough gentlemen we ever met
1 ami a physician of recognized skill
j and ability he was received cordially
by the brothers of his profession at
the association.”
A few days ego a negro was pointed
out to the writer, who was sent to the

county for burglary. He served out
' his time, and when ho reached Madi

1 into a smokehouse and stole some
I meat. He was sent back to the
. penitentiary for three years. After
, | serving two terms he got home after
c ‘ absence of thirteen years.

The Loafers Club has been reor
ganized for the summer’s campaign,
with a full corps of officers and a
strict code of laws. Any mmb er
found guilty of doing any work, is
. arrested at once, tried by jury, and if
found guilty is punished according4o
the enormity of the offence. One
member caught in the very act of
rolling a wheelbarrow has been sen
tenced to hang—around the stores
and sponge on the clerks for tobacco
as long as the*proprietors will per
mit. Capt. Sonjohn has been re
quested to deliver a lecture on “How
to Keep the Flies Off with the Least
Exertion.” Although the Captain is
not an active member of the Club, he
is in sympathy with it, and his lecture
will be the grandest effort of his life,
as “there are no Hies on him.”
AVe are in receipt of the following
from a prominent educator of Linden,
Texas, who is well known to the peo
ple of Hartwell un 1 surrounding coun.
' try:
“Inclosed find money order fer
§5.00. Please pass to my credit, and
> I when I have taken your good, spicy
, paper four or five years more, I’d
send you another.
The gentleman that signs himself
“Patron,” and writes on the question
of changing school books, speaks my
sentiments. Will you give him my
compliments? There is no greatei
; imposition practiced on the people
than that practiced by some school
, teachers of constantly introducing
new books. Agents for great pub
‘ linkers go about buying or “gulling”
Boards of Education, and the people
suffer. Teachers think they can
■ make a reputation by introducing
. something new. Both teachers and
. boards would do well to learn the old
before they try the new. But it is
not my fight, so I’ll close with best
regards,” Ac.
The above was not intended for
publication, but the views of bo com
petent an authority will command re
spect. The money order pays for The
Sun to 1891.
> “Do you see that old man there’”
said a Broad street merchant, point-
' ing to a very aged and infirm gentle-
> man who hobbled across the street at
Miller’s corner. “AVell, he worked in
a blacksmith shop here in Augusta
1 when he was a young man. He is
now worth over two hundred thou
sand dollars and owns some of the
most valuable real estate in the South.
Out of his salary of twenty dollars
per month for striking in the shop
here he always saved eight dollars a
month. This was laid away until the
( savings amounted to two hundred
j dollars, when he bought a small stock
of goods and began merchandising in
a neighboring city. In this business
the same frugal economy was kept up,
■ and the store continued to grow in
1 size, until it got to be the largest in
s the city. His annual sales ran far up
I into the thousands, and the scope of
his trade stretched out hundreds of
' miles in every direction.” —Augusta
