THE MITSTLAID, A Beautiful and Impressive Cere| mony at St. Stephen's. The corner stone of the new, beau ; tiful and handsome St. Stephen's church was laid yesterday, Tuesday, ? orri-u icon n? t Ck lmni'OQ. V/UbUUCi A I Itllj lUfVj ntvu VUV ( sive and solemn Lutheran service. In making this announcement it is proper to brifly review the heroic struggles of a noble band of Christian women upon whose shoulders was rolled the heavy burden of providing a suitable house in which to entertain "The King of kings and The Lord of lords'" and to worship their God in his own tabernacle. In doing so we shall not confine ourselves to a correct and detailed history of the Society through whose i . efforts the Lutherans are to have a f building which will not only be an ornament to our town but a credit to the denomination and an enduring monument to the zeal, faithfulness and devotion of women to the - - * ^ mi v cause of their savior. mis wora has been placed in abler hands and when finished will appear in these columns. Feeling the Deed of rubre comfortable and commodious quarters in which to pay their public devotion j to him who while upon earth had for ; a tabernacle the pure air and the blue vault of heaven for a canopy, but who now sits upon a throne of glory so brilliant and dazzling that humans cannot look upon it and live, J ' i some 01 me women uouuecieu mm the church formed themselves into j what is known as the "Woman's Aid Society of St. Stephen's church/'having for its object the building of anew church, and to this end thev have un' tiringly and unselfishingly labored until yesteiday, in the language of the j brilliant, eloquent and beloved pastor, "It has cost years of prayer, toil and sacrifice to reach bis occasion of ' rejoicing." But yesterday's rejoicing, j as great as it was, will be as nothing compared with the great overflowing thankfulness, praise and rejoicing i which will well from the hearts of these women when they behold their 1 Ll ^ ? labor 01 years Drougnt to a success- | ful completion. The old church, in which a part of the services yere hehj, was very taste- j fully and beautifully decorated with lovely and fragrant flowers and evergreens in rich profusions. The build- 1 ing was crowded to its utmost capa- i city, many persons being unable to to get inside of the building. The , services were solemn, impressive and beautiful, and one could not but feel ' and realize that the approving favor an eternal and everlasting God and the benediction of a gentle and lov- ! ing Savior rested upon the occasion as the songs of praises raised upon ; earth was caught up by listening angelic hosts and borne to the foot of j the throne. The singing was unusu- ; ally fine and everything passed off with that promptness and precision attained only through careful train- | iDg and practice. The sermon delivered by Dr. E. A. Wingard, of Columbia, was deep in thought, beautiful in construction, eloquent in exprassion and appropri- | ate in application; from beginning to J end ringing with precious truths en- j 1?1^????????? ticing man to look up to a higher, nobler and more a perfect life beyon the narrow confines of the gloom an darkness of the grave.

Program of corner stone laying services. Augburg Teacher. Cotton Plant. The Register. , The corner stone in which these articles were placed is a gift from Mr. John H. Meetze, the eldest grandson of Rev. Godfrey Dreher, a prominent Lutheran clergyman in the early history of the Lutheran Church in Lexington county. This same stone was taken from lands owned by the above named clergyman. A paper was prepared by the Secretary, Miss Florence Meetze, and read by Maj. H. A. Meetze, giving a history of ^the Society and St. Stephen's choir, which will be published at a future date. The Revs. W. A. Deaton, of St. Andrew's charge and ?. ?. DuBose of the Methodist church, were present and participated in the services. Much to the deep regret and dis appointment of the pastor and people, the Rev. Dr. Horn of Charleston, who was to have taken a prominent part in the services, was prevented from being present by the death of prominent member of his church. After the funeral he made an effort to keep his engagement but found that he could not make railroad connection. "When completed this church will be a handsome and imposing edifice, 45x29 feet with a seating capacity of 325 persons. The architect is D. G. Zeigler and the contractor Thomas \V. Mahew, both of Columbia. So ended a day that will long linger in the memory of Lexington people.

Columbia will soon throw -wide open her hospitable gates to give a hearty welcome to her invited guests who will assemble from every nool and corner of the State. Many oi those who will visit Columbia during .Fair week will aouotiess comDine business with pleasure, and while en joying the festivites of the occasion will be on the lookout for bargains in dry goods, clothing, boots, shoes, and bats, and for the information ol those who want to get the most goods for the least money Mr. J. L. Mimnaugb, of the firm of Mimnaugh & Co., authorizes us to extend to the thousands of readers of the Dispatch a cordial invitation to visit bis mammoth establishment, guaranteeing them a hearty welcome, fair dealing and polite attention. Of the many attractions provided for the entertainment of visitors tc the Fair none can surpass the gorgeous and brilliant display of genuine bargains prepared by Mimnaugt for the benefit the rich and poor whc have a family to provide for and in doing so want to receive the value ol their money. It may be well to state right here, so that there might be no misunderstanding, that Mr. Mimnaugh does not sell goods with the view of it beiDg the last pur chase of the customer, but his objecl is to secure and retain a customei by dealing with him fairly and lion estly, therefore instead of doiDg a? some merchants in other cities on like occasions, run up the price of goods, he has marked them down tc the lowest possible notch. In the cloak and jacket department will be exhibited one of largest and handsomest lines ever brought to the city, embracing many new and beautiiful styles and at prices that will interest every body. No use foi your poor, hard working and faithful wife to go though the chilling winds of winter to attend church when sc little money will get such a handsomt covering. The verdict of the public is that Mimnaugh has one of the finest dry goods departments in the South. Low prices is the keynote of his success ^ L - -?^ - d ^ ^ ilr* A 1* A T7 ana ne mienus ^trepiu^ mc ncj uun by continuing to sell at, rock bottom prices.
