Special attention is directed to the advertisement of the leading hardware dealers of Columbia, Messrs.

They are now offering the famons Dixie Boy Piow Stocks at $1.00, a heavy Avery Plow Stock at 60 cents. They also have a special run on traces from 25 cents up. Give them a call when you need anything on your place, in the house cr on the farm, and never buy before you have seen them. Completing a KailrcadThe material train on the Midland Railroad is between Seivern and Batesburg, with a gang of hands, filling in low places, overhauling and repairing the road bed. A considerable force of hands is filling in with dirt the trestle across W. J. Barr's mill pond and filling in low places near by. The iron has been laid to Mr. Westmoreiands and the road bed completed up to the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad near Batesburg. Another gang of hands is at Duncan creek, near the residence of Mr. H. W. HaltiwaDger, building a trestle. We understand that it is the object of the receiver to put this road in tip-top condition and as soon as the necessary arrangements can be t made, ties and iron will be laid to Batesburg. He gave notice to all parties interested in tie contiacts to meet him at Seivern to consider matters of business. We did not learn the result of the conference. Roller Flour Mill. As a result of the large acreage planted in wheat in this couuty this year there is a demand for first class roller flouring mills, conveniently located to the wheat fields, to meet this demand Mr. Jasper Long, who has been engaged in the lumber business at Barr's Landing, has decided to close this business out and devote his time and attention to the establishment of a roller flour mill at that place as far as we are informed, when he completes it, it will be the first mill of this kind in the county and he should be encouraged for Lis enterprise and progress by a liberal patronage both from the producer and the consumer. There is plenty of room for the establishment of more such mills and we hope to soon be able to chronicle the establishment of others in different sections of the county. During the past two years, Mrs. J W. Alexander, wife of the editor of the "Waynesboro, (Miss.) Times, has, in a great many instances, relieved her baby when in the first stages of croup, by giving it Chambei Iain's Cough Remedy. She looks upon this remedy as a household necessity and believes that no better medicine has ever been put in bottles. Theie are maDy thousands of mothers in this broad land, who are of the same opinion. It is the only remedy that can always be depended upon as a preventive and cure for croup. The 25 and 50 cent bottles are for sale by J. E. Kaufmann. i W&. PENCIL AM) SCISSORS. Wayside Notes Gathered Eere and There by a Dispatch Man. Plan to plant plenty of the food crop5?.

Disfigurement for life by burns or scalds may be avoided by using TWHtt's Witch Hazel Salve, the great remedy for piles and for ail kiuds of sores and skin troubles. J. E. Kaufmaun. Anions many cf the trite and pointed sayings of our old friend, Wesley Harsey, none are more discriptive of tbe self opinionated than that, "it is big I, little u, speak I and condemn u." How often must we state that no communication will be published in these columns unless accompanied by the true name of author, not necessary for publication but as a guarantee of good faith? J. M. Tbirswend, of Grosbeck, Tex., says that when he has a speli of indigestion, and feels bad and sluggish, he takes two of DeWitt's Little Early Risers at night, and he is all light tbe Dext morniDg. Many thousands of others do the same thing. Do you? J. E. Kaufmann. A person claiming to have a rnilII n/-,?fvonf frAm flio (Trtuarn. IIJU uuuai f.'iivia\,vi luu ^viviu meet to furnish granite for sorue public work, has it is alleged, opened a quary at Ciyce's, in this county to furnish this granite. The chain gang has completed the ; improvement of the road at Ivennerlev's bridge and is dow at the poor house cutting saw stocks to build a home for white paupers. It will also do some work on the roads near by. Last week we unintentionally omitted the names of Sheriff Caughman and L. Y\\ Redd from the list of officers of Lexington Council, No. 32, Royal Fraternal Union. The first named is the Marshal and the litter the Chaplain. Mr. James C. Fort has been in to^vn this week. We understand that he has decided to move back from Texas. His wife is at her father's, Mr. H. W. Haltiwanger's, near Batssburg, where they will reside for the present. The beautiful weather which wo have been having for the past two or three weeks, has been superceded by a dismal, gloomy and disagreeable drizzle drozzle. But we cannot justly coniphin. The rain and sen thine are both blessings to man. Mr. E. E. Taylor at Bates burg has a beautiful line of nice goods which he is offering cheap for his Lexington customers. He has a No. 1 stock of plows and farming implements. Try hiui before you buy. lie will divide profit9 with you. We Lave I eon requested by the Auditor to state that, for the convenience of numerous citizens of Hollow Creek towhsbip, lie has deputized Mr. S. S. Lindler to receive tax returns at John W. Craps' store, in said townsLip, on Sitnrdav, the 12th j day of Februarv, next. * CURES WHERE ALL ELSE FAILS. 2 0 Best < 'uu^li Syrup. Taftas Got*!. Use ^ ia time. Sold by druggists. Mr. Willie Drafts, son of Mr. J. C. Drafts, who taught school in the j "3 ar Academx," in Hollow Creek. was released by the t: ustces, to ! accept the clerkship of the House committee on claims. He is to com ! plete his contract with the school I after the adjournment of theLegislature. Mr. Adolphus Gantt, who resided . at Wagener, and who has been suffering for sometime with cancer, died last Friday. He was one of the best citizens of the Cedar Creek sec tion, a kind neighbor and lived quiet | and ucostacious life, attending to bis own business and leaving that of everybody tBe alone. J. C. Berry, one of the best known citizens of Spender, Mo., testifies tiat he cured himself of the worst kind of piles by using a few boxes of De Witt's Witch Hazel Salve. He had been troubled with piles for over rbirty years and had used many different kinds of so-called cures; but DeWitt's was the one that did the work and he will verify this statement if any one wishes to write him. J. E Kaufmann. Five cents cotton, when the cost of production is considered, is dirt cheap, but the low prices at which Piatt, Hook & Shull are selling fine family and plantation groceries, hay and grain are cheaper than dirt. They ask you to call and make your purchases at their store and they will convince you. Their place cf business is Columbia, and they have a nice wagon vard to accommodate O + their Lexington friends. 0. W. 0. Hard man, when sheriff of Tyler Co., W. Va., was at one time, almo3t prostrated with a cold. He used Chamberlains Cough Remedy and was so much pleased with the quick relief and cure it afforded him, that he gave the following unsolicited testimonial: "To all who may be interested, I wish to say, that I have used Ubambei lain s uougn liemeay aud fiud it invaluable for coughs and colds."

Optical MTg Co.. is at Kaminer's Hotel to stay a week, or longer if necessary, and all who are suffering with weak or defective eye sight should consult him at once. Each eye examined free of charge, and proper glasses made to order and perfect tits guaranteed to old and young. His services in Columbia and other places, and for some of our citizens heretofore, have been most satisfactory. IuserliDg lenses in old frames a specialty. A Handsome Residence. The elegant new dwelling of Mr. Scott Hendrix is rapidly approaching completion, and when finished, will be the handsomest and most elegant home in this place. It was built under Mr. Hendrix* own supervision and according to bis own taste and id?a^andinit reflects credit upon them. Mr. John Taylor, one of the finest and most skilled carperters in this vicinity was employed to do the wood work and his work on this buildiDg sustains his well earned reputation. "Walter h>.

The editor, continuing his chase after the nimble dollar, which is a necessary essential in business life to keep things moving, took dinner Tuesday with Mr. II B Barr, where we found a most excellent dinner prepared under the supervision of his estimable sister, and the way we devoured the good things set befoic us, attested to our appreciation ai d enjoyment. Jhnii'g the progress cf a pleasant conversation we learnt d that Mr. Ban's matrimonial aspirations turned Michiganward ami we opine that etc the daisies bloom again ho will be in the land of eekrv, o ? shipping south wooden hams and nutmegs and barrels of apples with the largest ones on top and the smaller ones in the middle and at the t-w.f trim \v re?rrp{ this nossibilitv of a a. 'losing so good, industrious and piogrcssive citizen as he is but hope that his Northern bird, when he cages her will prevail upon her cap turer to confine her in the sunny clime and azure skies of the South in Lexington county. Tuesday night we spent with Mr. I). T. Hair, in the pretty little village of Summit. Mr. Hare is engaged in the mercantile business with his sou, in which he is making quite a success. He has an elegant home furnished elaborately with a view to comfort, couenvience and pleasure and is surrounded by peace and plenty. While at Summit we called at the office.of our neighbor, Our News Letter, and found the knights cf the rule and stick hard at work "sticking type" aud attending to their various duties. The editor and proprietor of lit-fln >5 Mr. W. A. ILtla nil M44VVW ... Hare, who also conducts a merchandizing business with his father. Mr. Shealy, the printer, understands his business. We wish the paper and force abundant success. Wednesday we arrived at the beautiful home of our friend D. F. Keisler, at whose hospitable board we have oftentimes abundantly admin istered to the wants of the inner man and on this occasion right royally were we entertained by himself aud thoughtful family and left regretting that we could not tarry longer with him. Wednesday night found us domi ciled beneath our own roof. Thursday ere the shades of night had given way to the reseate hues of dawniugday we winded our way to the depot where we boarded the cannon ball train for Lewiedale andinulmost, an iucreditable space of time after the merry tones of the conductor split the morning air with "All aboard" at Lexington, before our engine was screaming for Lewiedale and puffing into the depot. At this point in our round we found the mer chants holding their own and while not quite run to death waiting on customers, they had no moments to spare in idleness. At Senator Giif lith's spacious and elegant home we took dinner, which was one of the best that we ever set down to and which we enjoyed to the fullest ex tent of our gastronomic capabilities. Friday at Leesville we found the merchants of this beautiful and pro pressive town full of cheerful spirits over the contiuued prosperity of their town, notwithstanding the present gloomy business outlook, Leesville is iudeed fortunate in having such a clever set of business men whose study it seems to be to uutilize every opportunity for the good of the tjwn and their own prosperity. The people of this town are warm hearted, sociable and hospitable aud noted for their refinement culture and high moral tone. The people of this section turned out to meet the Auditor iu larger numbers, perhaps, than at any other point on the round. We enjoyed a well prepared dinner i t the hot-. 1 kept by Mrs. Derrick. We spent Saturday at B de.-burg. Business seemed to be on a boom and activity was the conspi-.-ious feature of the day. The merchants seemed to be giving t Loin selves no undue concern over the low pi ice of cotton, but have grasped the situation and have out done 5 cents col ton by making a cut iu the prices of their goods and as a consequence much of the gloominess which have taken posession of our farming interest has been robbed of much of its unpleasantness and a more cheerful feeling is I cin : awal e el. J h .* merchants have made Batesburg what she is today the business centre of the county.
