J. A. BANKS, EDITOR.
Rain, so cooling and refreshing, is
abundant
The growing crops look very charm
ing, especially cotton.
The distilled "coffee” had rather a
bad effect upon two of Macedonia's
gents. We advise them to beware of
anything that intoxicates.
Why does a “cuff." as soon as lie
can read, wish either to preach or
perform some great exploit ?
Will say to Luck and Pluck, that
the chances for tho much dreaded
duel are buried in tho abyss of the
past, but heartily congratulate them
on their poetical gift, and hope long
may they live to act as a mediator
and interest the Sentinel readers.
Wo hare too much modesty to ask
again the long faced gent, though our
curiosity vibratos wonderfully.
Oh, Willie I why didn’t you send us
some of these delicious blackberries ?
Rev. Lane Ware filled tho regular
appointment at Appling on Sunday
last, in the absence of Rev. T. O. Ilo
rie. His discourse was very interest
ing as well as timely and backed by
Bible truths. We feel that his efforts
were by no means a failure and hope
ere long to be able to hear tho preci
ous words of truth proclaimed by him
again.
On Sunday last ’twos my privilege
as well as pleasure to visit the old
homestead where in by gone days I
have spent many a happy hour. The
crops in and around Appling are very
flattering, the farmers are buoyant in
spirits. May they always be thus.—
As we neared homo our sentiments
ran in unison with the famous poet of
the past :
“Sweet is the hour that brings ns home,
Where >ll will spring to meet r.s,
Whose hands are striving as wn come
To be the first to greet ns.
Ami when tiie world has spent its frowns,
And cares are sorely pressing,
’Tis sweet to turn from our roving path,
And find a fireside blessing,”
In Tuesday’s issue tho “Violet” of
Ucliee valley came again to the front,
ami pronounces our mineral spring
as being with mineral properties very
sparingly made by dame nature, and
then states that it may be her organ
or sense of taste. Very probable 'twits
the latter. She consoles herself with
the fact, that others, too, pronounced
it very scantly impregnated with iron,
but let me inform the beautiful violet
that others besides herself have a de
fected sense of taste, but bo that as it
may, we prefer the decision of the
Assistant State Chemist, C. M. Stra
han, viz:
Original matter 1.100.
Carbonate of iron 4.244.
Chloride calceum 0.722.
Total solids 6.366.
The above is a true extract from
the chemist’s analysis and pronounc
ed by him pure and healthful.
Every arrangement is being made
for the jolly fourth. The streets are
being cleaned off, sidewalks scraped
and every necessary preparation
made. Come and hear the Black
Barnes talk.
The Junior Editor, in his display
of wisdom, has chosen the iron spring
correspondent as the subject at which
to poke fun, by referring to the said
dude’s proportions, consisting of side
whiskers, white Derby hat, etc. He
proposes to make game of the corres
pondent, but let’s have an explana
i tion: Being of late thrown in compa
!nv with his noted Bob, I felt embur
' rassed on account of my flat straw,
i hence I got the Derby, then seeing
1 the Junior with his prairie grass like
| beard, at once admired them and
having a desire to be a man ot promi
I ncnce, thought if I couldn’t imitate
: him in spicy articles, that I would do
so as far as my ability would admit,
j hence tho aiders. Esprit decorpus.

FOREST GROVE.
UY JOHN SCHOOOINS.
We have been a little tartly of late,
but we come again and this time with
good news, that is, it in raining ano
the tiller of the ground is rejoicing ns
our crops were Deeding rain very
much.
I have traveled around more than
usual since my last, and have no hesi
tancy in saying the crops are in bet
ter condition than we ever saw them
at this season of the year though I
think they area little backward ns n
rule. I have seen some that deserve
special mention, among these wo
would say just look at Oliver Baston's
corn. He has a great, big field of
very high corn, which will surely fill
the old barn and more too. It ih a
treat to look at it; it reminds one of
old times. His cotton is also good.
It does look like he will bo able to
live at home and board at the same
place.
Mr Tom Dozier has the finest cot
ton we have seen. There are many
other good crops, yes very good, but
those mentioned are the best this
scribe has seen and wo have not seen
less than forty crops in the last two
weeks. There are several patches as
good as those mentioned, but the
patch must give way to the big field.
The hum of the threshing machine
is heard no more and tho crop was as
short as the space it takes to tell of it.
We had a visit from an
old friend of ours last Satur-
I day and she told us some news,
and what we saw Sun-lay has almost
tempted us to say that there is a lit
tle romance connected with it. We
will venture a little, hoping not to of
fend any one. The tale runs tl u :
There has been one of Appling’s
' belles in this section for some time
and our visitor, an old widow, told us
| last Saturday that she would have to
stay or back right square out. Now,
this gal is akin to us and we folks
don’t back much and on hearing of
that bat that would make her look S J

curious, so Sunday wo rode down to
see a friend who holds the office of J.
I*. and lo and behold, we met that
couple just this side and when we
reached the J I*. wo found they hud
been there, but wo failed to draw out
anything except that they got n few
peaches, but Pete was in Thomson
Saturday. 1 wonder if ho didn't
Lave business with the Ordinary. Yes,
I mot them :<>t far from the house of
tho J. I*., and oil, those smiles that lit
up their faces. Well, I have been
there too, ho go it while you tiro

not too late, to be remember when

I would simply say, in reference to

the tkuk situation in gueenviij.m
county.
Gheenvilee S. (!., June 28.—There
has been n good.denl ot wild tulk in
, the surrounding counties, nud in
! some parts of Greenville county,about
the danger of allowing tho negroes lo
go on with their organizations of so
called labor unions, mid it Ims been
rumored that u deadly conflict Would
bo the result, but among the cool und
clear-beaded people no ultt uLIql has
been giv< n to these rumors, und, so
fur us I can learn, tho best public
sentiment, in this county, at leiufi, is
in favor of lotting tho negroes alone,
so long ns they do not violate the law;
but, on tho other hand, there are
ninny people, even here iu this city
who are strongly in favor of dealing
with these labor union agitators and
disciples of Hoover in u summary
inumii r, and there has been a good
deal of serious talk about a proposi
tion to organize a vigilance committee
amt drive these agitator tramps and
blatherskites out. of the country.
GL'ITINO iiottzh.
Liiek Many citizens nre in the
city to night from Fairview township,
tins county, and from Dacusvillo
township, Pickena county, who report
considerable excitement in their
neighborhood about the negro organ- '*
iznlions, and some young men were
hero from Fairview to procure arms |
and ammunition. They say tho no- ?
groes are armed and threaten to puru
out the white people. At. Ducusville
township, in Pickens county, the lie
grocH are joined by u crow d of lawless
white men ami preparations are being
made by them to hold a mass meeting
on the fourth of July at which time
it is expected there will Le trouble.-
Some white people are very much
excited. All sorts of wild rumors
reach tho city, one being to the effect
that negroes and white allies were
i-oming hero to siiek the town and rob -
banks, but rm credence is given here
to these reports. There is no excite
ment in this city. Fairview and
Dacusvillo arc about twenty miles
from here. —Augusta Chronicle.
