CHIPS AND SPLINTERS-
Robins arc quite plentiful around
our town.
Quite a large quantity of guano
will be used by the farmers of Colum
bia this year.
Harlem still holds its reputation ns
the best shingle market in the State.
A $25,000 Hotel for Harlem would
make things loom up lively.
Some of our citizens are going
largely into raising poultry. Game
chickens though seem to be the most
popular with a great many.
The few days of warm weather has
already brought out the abominable
fly. Ere long we look for the festive
flea and gay musquito.
Town Council held their regular
monthly meeting on last Monday
night.
SAD DEATH-
On Friday morning last our young
friend Fred Morris yielded up his life
to the reaper death and passed into
the spirit world. He was young and
strong and seemingly had the prom
ise of a long life, but not so, “In the 1
midst of life we are in death.” His I
remains were brought here for inter
ment and on Saturday, together with
new born babe, were consigned to
the grave. This is truly a sad end
ing of a bright and promising young
life. He was in the employ of the j
City Council of Augusta, and was j
faithful to every trust and lost his life
in the discharge of his duty.

n few friends remained several hours
to enjoy the hospitality of Prof, and

could gather from him, the accident
occurred in a bakery, but just how it
happened we could not find out.
Nevertheless, he was a pitiful looking

M EASELS.
This disease just now is raging to
an alarming extent throughout this

their bods with tbe aforesaid disease.
We sincerely hope that all may pull
through safe.

Mr. A. L. Cooper, our worthy
night watchman, is ever on the alert

A knight of the grip sack called
into the Sentinel office ou last Fri

down, wanted to know if the “buyer
was in.” When told that he was in a

quite dangerous.
