Edgefield Advertiser WEDNESDAY, OCT. 10, 1894. LOGAL2 BREVITIES. Thus far the month of October has been au ideal one for harvest ing. Mens1 Suits, $3.69 to $13, at New York Racket Store. The Columbia Journal speaks of Captain Gee Wash Shell as the Li Hung Chang of Re fawn. The Sunbeams have changed their time of meeting to 3 o'clock in the afternoon. A snapping and cracking reduc tion has been made in the prices of Whips, Harness, and all Sadlery at Ramsey & Bland's. Five and a half cents cotton ie enough to run a man distracted, and would have sent many a man to the asylum had it not come to us so gradually. Are you fond of a bright and sunny disposition? Then buy your wife a few pieces of Ramsey & Bland's Furniture, that she has been wanting, and watch results. Mr. George Lewis has put two new seventy-saw gins in his ginning establishment, which do remark able work. They actually skin the seed of every particle of lint or fibre. Ladies' and Gents' Hosiery, 5? to 50/, at New York Racket Store. Your home is made beautiful not by a lavish expenditure of money, but by good judgment and taste in its furnishings. Ramsey & Bland urge you to inspect their styles and prices. 1 Mr. H. Wood (Ginse) has open- ? ed a beef market at his old stand i on the corner next to the black smith shops. Edgefield can't get ; along without Ginse Wood as a < fresh meat caterer. < 1 This queer story is told of a Kentucky negro: He was caught ] stealing chickens and a farmer fired at him twice. The negro has , since lost bis reason, and crows j like a rooster all night long. "No, judge,"'said a ne'er-do-well, who was being questioned by a J magistrate as to his reasons for be , inga vagrant; "I ain't never had the advantage of paren tia! gui dance-I'm an orphan by birth." ' f A great deal is being said nowa- i days about "money being close," but precious little stays by the peo- 1 pie when they go into Ramsey & Bland's store and see with their 1 own eyes the bargains they have. Boys hats and caps, 15/ up, at ] New York Racket Store. fj_A_T.nnor, 0f Trenton, brought in a load of sweet potatoes \ on Saturday, the first of the sea- ; son, brought in in wagons, and the ' best. Mr. Long's pumpkin yam ; potatoes are the fiuest to be seen on , the planet. Col. Geo, W. Croft, of Aiken, has ; been in our town for some days attending to Wal matters prepara- * tory to the sitting of our Novem ber court. Col. Croft is the clearet-t ] headed, biggest brained lawyer ] who visits this bar. i Mr. B. B. Evans is fitting up his } insurance office with new furniture, carpeting Cn the floor, new stove, \ ready fot winter and borean blasts. In the meantime don't neglect so , great an opportunity to live in J hearts you leave behind by having him insure your life. * Capt. John D. Roper, of Trenton, took charge of the "Hotel Edge field" on Monday of this week. ' What with their loDg experience, ' gastronomic skill, and gracious courtesy Capt. aud Mrs. Roper will make most excellent and popular hoBt aud hostess. Bleachings and Cambrics, 4\c to 10/, at New York Racket Store. At a school examination, a young tyro in declamation, who had been told by the teacher that lie must gesticulate according to The sense, in commencing a piece with "Tho comet lifts his fiery tail," lifted his coat tn a horizontal position, caus ing roars of laughter. As Sam Taylor was picking gooseberries in the woods last Sun day afternoon a rattlesnake struck athis Adam's apple, but missed it and caught his collar button, which he swallowed. Sara ran backwarvls half a mile to the dispensary be fore be could get the snake off. The sequel to this we will tell next week, or as soon as we can extract it from Sam. Master W. F. Roath and B. B. Evans, Esq., have had new and most artistic signs painted on the windows of their respective offices by the versatile and peripatetic painter, Jacquez Demare, now so journing in our town for a few days, who assures us that he speaks and paints signs in five different languages and all correctly, and that as a consequence he is equally at home in all climes and all na tioue. whether ruled or ruined by Khedive, Czar, Mikado, or Till man. Pace's Branch trestle is to be re constructed from mud sill to top rail. It is wovderful that this tres tle stood as long aB it did, consid ering the fact that raillons of tons of Edgefield granite have rolled over it. As we understand the matter the space occupied by the trestle will be filled in as far as tho stream and then a steel or iron bridge thrown across the chasm. If our foresights were as good as our hindsights this would have been done long ago. And where is otts? Quite a number of Edgefieldh will attend the Barnum & Baile shows in Augusta. Stands to reason-the handso Parlor Tables and Stands at Ra Bey & Bland's. Capt. L. Charlton made qui ti pleasant talk to the Method Sunday-school last Sunday moi ing. j Henry Ward Beecher said on o occasion that "some people cia to have been born Episcopaliai born Methodists, born Baptis born Presbyterians, but he thank God that he was boru a baby." A plane smoothes rough boan and Ramsey Bland's low prices i Hardware are smoothing the wi for buyers, carpenters, and buil ers. Charlie Adams, who lives on tl old Duncan road, three miles fro Mt. Willing, in this county, h already gathered, packed, and so two bales of cotton from two ai a half acres of land, and will g two more from the same groun The Peterkin Cluster is the kin of cotton he plants. Goiug to house keeping is ei couraged by Ramsey & Blaud, i is shown by the prices on Furn ture r.f all descriptions. The half has not yet been toi about Ramsey & Bland's bargaini Go to them and learn the rest. Unlaundried Shirts, 29?' to 74/ at New York Racket Store. We find business is quiet gener ally in the stores in Augusta, bu there is one house in that city tha is rushing business all the time that is Flynn's Auction House they are always doing business Their nice checked homespun ant calico at 34- cents, aud 30 yards o vard-wide sea island for $1.00, fch< nil wool 33? cents jeans for 2( ?ents, and the countless bargain! in dress goods, shoes, and clothing all keep them busy and we advise avery person that visits Augusta tc examine the stock at Flynu's Auc tion House before buying.

Coth ran, who lives on Mr. Hollings ivorth's place, as to who should raise the most upland corn on one icre of land. Mr. Cothran won the prize, making thirty-five bush els. This was on poor uplands and shows what can be done when a fair effort is made. Burnett-Bates. In the early spring we spoke of the Burnett-Bates combination in corn raising. We allude to Col. John P. Bates and Maj. W. N. Burnett, both of our town. Well the corn has been harvested, and from the eight acres there were gathered 160 bushels, good meas ure, packed down and ruuniug over. This deed was done, remem ber, or. ordinary uplands. Of this 160 bushels the Major ?eceived 120 bushels. The balance went to the Colonel, who only claim? to have furnished the land and the brains. A Big: Case. Probably the most interesting civil case that has been tried in Edgefield for years will come up ar the November term, we refer to tho case of the Townes brothers against the city of Augusta. The trial will consume at least three days and probably more. A large amount of mouey is involved and man)r interesting points of law will present themselves. The fight begins m Augusta next Tuesday, when testimony de bene ease will be taken. Able counsel have been re tained by both sides. Messrs. Croft & Tillman will appear for the plaintiffs, while Messrs. Sheppard J'.ros., besides a number of well known Augusta attorneys,will rep resent the defendants. "Ike Dallas." While at Gainesville, Ga., re cently, Col. 7/. II. Folk purchased and brought home with him a thoroughbred trotting horse, "Ike Dallas" by name. This splendid animal can make a mile in three minutes, although only four years old and utterly untrained. When be reaches the age of six years, standard-bred and registered as he is, his name will be changed to "Eclipse" for some one of his illustrious ancestors, and he will then make his mile in 2.40. Had King Pharoah owned "Ike Dallas" and been driving him to his chariot in that memorable pursuit of the Israelites, he certainly would have seined them worse than he did, and might have overtaken them before they reached the protecting walls of the Red Sua, however, all things considered, it is probably bast the way it is.
