South Fork. The descendants of G.M-Yoder f held their annual reunion at his ; house on Saturday, the 21st, ult., ; and there were 89 present, among ( them his six children, 33 grand- j children and 4 great grand-child ren, those living in lina being absent. Dinner was ] served in the pleasant grove near the house, and an address was made bv Rev. L. L. Love, after which the party was photo graphed. F. A. Yoder is putting in wa ter works at his place, the water being forced about 800 feet by a ram. . Mr. and Mrs. Blanton, of Shel by, are visiting her father. D. H. Shu ford. Mrs. A. Abernetny and son, have been visiting her daughter in Gaston county, near the river bend. J. E. and Q. A. Wilfong have been on a trip to Blowing Rock, Boone county and surrounding country. Your correspondent made a trip last week to Siles creek. Many improvements in the way of new buildings, etc., since his last trip to that section, 22 years ago. were noted. Arrived at Conover, his mind went back to 1857-8, when he taught the pub lic school there in an old log house. The whole country was then a dense oak forest, but the railroad was being graded by N. W. Robinson, M. M. Wilson and Frederick Smith. At that time I told Moses Herman, who own ed the land, that something would spring up there in the fu ture, and offered to assist him in laying out the land, but he laugh ed at me and said there would never be anything there. 'Time, however, has shown that he was mistaken. Leaving Conover, I visited an old friend, C. W. Her man, 87 years old. He was sit ting outdoors in an armed chair, but is very feeble. In traveling from Conover my mind reverted to the old times there. In 1842 it was known as Eavesville, and George Smyre had a store there, with as clerk. In that year the question of a di vision of Lincoln county came up, and a mass meeting was called, to meet in May. This meeting was attended by an immense crowd, and the matter was thor oughlv discussed. Nathaniel Wilson and John Yount were nominated to further the cause throughout the county, while Gaston county put forward Lark in Stowe and James White, who were elected in August by a large majority. In a later letter I will tell more about the contest. Granite Falls. Prof. A. C. Sherrill, of the Catawba County News, was in town a couple of days last week on business, and we hope he will come again. Mr. Otis Mackie, who went to Virginia last Spring, came back last week and savs he will stay in his part of the country. A beautiful wedding took place at the Methodist church on the 25th, when Rev. Mr. and Mrs. A. E.Wiley gave in marriage their daughter. Miss Ida, to Prof. C. F. Niven. The church was beau tifully" decorated, and quite a large crowd were in attendance, Miss Lucille Goode, of Connelly Springs, played the wedding march. Rey. Mr. Wiley, father of the bride, performed the cer emony. Mr. L. W. Hayes, who has been traveling for the Scarboro Co., came home last week. Miss Nellie and Jewel Deal are going to enter Brevard school. Mr. W. G. Whisnant, who has been the cashier of the bank of Granite, is keeping boDks for the Dudley Lumber Co., Mr. Otis Russell having resigned to go to school. Mr. John W. Hoke was elected cashier of the bank. Mr.E.R.Tilley, of the Whisnant Tilley Co., has gone to New York and other Northern markets to buy his winter goods. Mrs. H. C. Mackie and Mrs.W. G. Whisnant, have gone to Salis bury to see Mrs, A. E. Watts, who is being treated in the hos pital. Stills Seized. H. W. Jones and W. J. Kenne dy and Revenue Officers Knipe and Hendricks, went over to the South mountains Sunday night on a raiding exhibition and the next day found and destroyed three stills. At John Bibbs; son Jacob's Fork' they found a bran ly distillerv, with 700 gallons of pumice. At Noah Knipe s they found a whiskey still, with OO rations of beer. Farther down the stream they found a very 'arge blockade still, with about 1,500 gallons of beer. This be longed to LaFayette Chapman, who was raided by the officers last winter and had a brandy and whiskey still seized. A 1! the . se stills were destroyed on this trip- Both Knipe and Chapman had nearly a dozen fine hogs, which they were fattening; on the waste from their stills. The party vis ited u.s. Grant Chapman and, although they found no illicit still, got onto a2-gallon jug of whiskey which was in his bed ind a five gallon keg in an out house. The latter was confiscat ?d and sent £0 the commissioner co be disposed of.

Why Druggists Recommend Chamberlain's Colic, Cho lera and Diarrhoea -Remedy. Mr. Frank C. Hanrahan, a prominent druggist of Portsmouth, Va., says. "For the past six years I have sold and recommended Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. It is a great remedy and one of the best patent medicines on the market. I handle some others for the same pur pose i that pay me a larger profit, but this remedy is so sure to effect a cure, and my customer so certain to appreci ate my recommending it to him, that I give it the preference."
