Although Mimnaugh A Co., of Columbia, had a tremendous trade for the past two weeks aud that their customers carried away numerous bargains, their plan of having buyers North all the time, enables them to catch continually everything new and novel in designs of dress goods and other articles in this line, so that you will always find something new and pleasing m stock. Their prices are as low as possible and the polite and accommodating attention given by the corps of clerks makes it pleasant to deal with this reliable house. Always see Mimnaugh before you buy. ? ' John F. Ricard Dead. This morning about 4 o'clock Brother John F. Bicard passed away. He was sick for quite awhile and his death was expected. Mr. Bicard leaves a wife and seven children. He lived a Cnristian life and we trust he is now at rest in our Father's house. May the Lord ever bless and keep his loved ones who mourn his departure. I am sure we all shall rnisa him very much. I have seen him rc-joice in the religion he possessed and he gave me much encouragement just after I started in the Christian life. God doeth all things well. Oscar Spires. Edmund, S.

It now looks as if the city of Col! umbia will be supplied with pure : water from old Piatt Springs, about i eight miles south of our town. This | is about the conclusion of the enj gineer of the waterwoiks commission | of that city. It will take a "mighty | heap" of piping, but the water is as clear as a crystul and as pure as can be found in the mountains, and the supply is inexhaustable. + Cash System. After the 4th of January next, Mr. T. Hayne Williams will conduct his business at Irene, S C, on a strictly cash basis. This, be claims will enable him to sell goods cheaper and conduct a more satisfactory bus:ness to all concerned.
