Boys' Suits worth $2.50 for $1.75, for ~auh at T. W. C. Ba1nck's. tf The Court. Judge WVitherspoou returned to New berry on last Friday night. The Court of Common Pleas was opened on Mon day. Most of the day was taken up in calling the docket and continuing cases. Only one case was tried, and in that the judge instructed the jury what verdict to bring in. The jury returned on Tuesday, but nothing was ready for trial, and they were discharged until this (Thursday) morning, when they are required to be on hand. The proba bility is nothing will be ready again. The court so far has done actually nothing. The judge will remain next week we presume. Gen. Y. J. Pope, who is engaged in a number of cases, was present all Mon day, but owing to arduous duties de volving upon him as Attorney General since he assumed the office, he has been unable to be at home but very little of his time, and in consequence was un able to go into the trial of any of the cases in which he was interested, and he so stated to the court. He said never since 1876 had,so many duties and so much work devolved upon an Attorney General. He returned to Columbia on Tuesday morning. It seems to us that at a time like this when the farmers are so far behind with their work, that if cases are not ready for trial they should be con tinued, and the jury should not be kept here unless there was something for them to do.

The citizens' meeting on last Thurs day afternoon, to consider the report of Council on water works and electric lights, was held in the Courthouse and very well attended. The report of Council was read. (It is published in full on first page.) On motion of W. H. Wallace, the report was received as information. No one seemed to have anything to say and Geo. B. Cromer moved to adjourn, but the motion was voted down. Dr. W. E. Pelham spoke in favor of the town adopting water works and electric lights, and at the conclusion of his remarks moved that the Council be instructed to invite bids and report to an adjourned meeting. This was adopted. Mr. L. N. Cox, of Washington, and Mr. WV. H. Gibbes, Jr., of Columbia, who were present were granted the privileges of the floor. Both these entlemen responded briefly. Thd :eeting then adjourned. At the next meeting when bids have een received there will be something efinite upon which action can be ased. We will get there by and bye.

Holmes, of Newberry, who is one of the owners of the new automautc Harris car coupler, was in the city this morning. Mr. Holmes was on his way from Augusta, where e had been to meet a Northern capi talist who is to be interested in placing this new invention on the market. The inventor of this new device is Mr. WV. H. Harris, of Newberry, who has proven that he is possessed of great genius, by this splendid product of his brain. Experts in mechanical arts in various parts of the country who have examined the new couple declare that it excels the "Janney" or, in fact, any other that has yet been invented. Mr. Holmes will have three or more cars fitted up with the Harris coupier, and will exibit its practical workings to the Master Car Builders' association at their annual meeting, which will take place at Cape May, N.

OCFL PRIOSPERITY LETTE1:. Jtv. T. O. Keister is conducting a series of services in Grace church every night this week except Saturday night. Iev. J R. Edwards, of Due West, prenced two instructive and edifying sermons, morning and evening, in the A. R. P. church. On last Sunday, (Palmn Sunday an affecting scene occurred m Grace church, when thirteen young persons presented themselves at the altar. and were received into full communion, b3 the solemn rite of confirmation. One young lady was received by transfer, making fourteen accessions on Palm Sunday. Rev. Keister is doing a glo rious work for the Lord. A lot of cotton stored in the Alliance warehouse by different parties, when they could have realized i.} cents, is being sold at 71. This only shows how little we know of the future price of anything, especially cotton. The price of cotton in the main is regulated by supply and demand. With a surplus of 2,5I0,O) bales of cotton to be carried to the next crop, the outlook for fair prices is not flat tering. On last Sunday evening at Provi dence (colored) church, two colored men, Tom Sheely and Sim Bates, be came involved in a "playful" diftietilty, when Sheeley drew his knife and first stabbed Bates in the arm; Bates agamn advanced still "playing," when Sheely inflicted a fearful looking wound, be ginning near the left ear and across the throat and windpipe, and extending several inches down the breastbone, laying the bone open to view. Whis key seems to have been the c tuse of the unfortunate affair. Last night a meeting of citizens was held to consider the question of "tax or no tax" upon personal and real property in town to help bear the bur dens of the town. After some warm remarks pro and con, the question was put to the house, and resulted in 17 votes in favor of taxation and 8 against. The probabilities are that there will be two tickets placed before the people and we will have a jolly good time, and no body will get mad, because that would be a sure sign of weak citizenship, and nobody likes to be weak-kneed you know.

Gardening and Irish potato planting has been the topic of the day in this community. Small grain has a fine app.arance in this s.ection. Mr. J. A. C. Kibler showed us a few days ago a neat little pocket knife that his uncle made him a present of about twenty-five years ago. The knife is a fancy one, and has the appearance of good keeping. We are glad to learn that many of our farmers contemplate planting more corn this year and less cotton. Cotton at the present prices will never keep the farmers out of debt. Our farmers should plant less cotton and raise more of the necessaries of life. Sc;MA. A Wonder Worker. Mr. Frank Hutiman, a young mar of Bur linton, Ohio, states that he had been under the care of two prominent physicians, and used their treatment until he was able to get around. They pronounced his case to be Consumption, and incurable. He was per suaded to try Dr. King's New biscovery for Consumption.

NINETY-SIX, March' 23.-On Sun day morning about I o'clock the town was alarmed by the cry of fire, which originated in the store of Dr. H. M. Julian. The cause of the fire is un known. h-ad it not been a damp night, and for the direction of the wind, the south side of our little town would have been burned. As it was one house and a cabin were destroyed. Dr. Julian sustained a loss of about five or six hundred dollars. He only had $.500 insurance. The house could not be replaced for $1,.500, and it was paying 10 per cent interest on that amount. The insurance agents of the town are doing a good business while the fire is fresh in the metnory of the people. KILLED ON THE TRACK. A Leading Mefrchant of Florence shocking ly Mangled by a Train.

WIVJIJ.E, K. NEW Y0RX, N.Y. TEACHERS' COLUMN. - An Object Lesson. One day last week a teacher in a cer tain school of the county, while hear ing a recitation from one of the little ones, found that the little fellow was slow to pronounce the words. In order to help him the teacher would name objects in the school room, and have the pupil spell and pronounce them. This method was working very well bntil the word "gold" was given out. The little fellow spelled it correctly, but did not pronounce it readily. The teacher held up his watch chain and asked: What is this made of ? "Brass;~ was the quick response. Moral.-Don't use your jewelry in teaching your pupils. The County Board of Examiners mel at the office of the School Commis. sioner on Monday, 23d. It was decided to hold an institute this summei during the month of July. It has been held here for the past two years in June, but this is too early for a good many teachers.
