Boozer & Sons to have appointments at Lexington duricg the month of July and August, however if there are parties wishing work done next month and will write a postal card a week ahead, one of the firm will fill appointments at the regular time, Thursday, Friday and Saturday before the second Sunday, July 7, 8, and 9. Don't forget to make engagements for should no notification be received they may not fill appointment. We remain, very truly, D. L. Boozer & Son. A Lynching Bee Prevented. A fire thought to be of an incendiary origin started in the stable of Cap Williams in Brookland Monday night, which soon laid the buildiDg in ashes. The stable of Dr. H. T. Kendall, containing his furniture saved from a former fire, then caught and was also consumed together with the furniture. Frank Hampton, the negro diiver of Dr. Kendal), was suspected of having set fire to the stable and he was arrested aDd incarcerated in the guard house. Later there was strong talk of taking him from the officers of the law and having a necktie party, which would probably have been done had not Governor Ellerbe been informed of the purpose of the would be lynchers in time to prevent it. The Governor sent a detachment of troops down and had the prisoner safely lodged in the penitentiary. The Fair Association Meeting. Nest Monday there will be an important meeting of the Lexington County Fair Association at this place. Arrangements will probably be completed for the holding of the next fair, which commences on October 26th and ends on the 2Sih. The premium list is now in the hands of the printer and will be ready for distribution in a few days. This meetiog should be largely attended by the members so that the work will not be delayed and after it is completed there will be no kicking. The la?t fair was a decided success considering the short time in which it was gctten up and greater things are expected of it this year, so every member should appointed himself a committee of one to (jo all in his power to make the second fair a grand success. 4b r??t??a?ME??ga?M mm j i PENCIL'm Sf!SS(!RS. | Wayside Notes Gathered Here and | There by a Dispi^ch Km.

IIIBI I 111? ! j Beautifully Fitted Up. This is the season of the ytarwhen j fill merchants aie very at xious to cod- j I vert their unsaleable sto< k into rash, j (renerally there are two prime motives which induce many merchants to pursue this plan. Chief of the two reasons is that times are dull, | - . . . * , \ collections bad, a big stock on nano ! and big bills to meet with no money to do so, and hence they are prepared t) muke any sacrifice to sustain their credit. The second, in connection with above considerations, is that ! at this time there is a large stocTi | of summer goods on hand which, if not sold now, will have to he carried J over to another season at a great loss, i None of these considerations, however, has no place in Mimuaugh's, the merchant prince of Columbia, system of doing business. Iu his four immense department stores he i offers bargains every day, some of which are really astonishing for their beauty and cheapness. He receives j new goods daily and while they are fresh and seasonalle. herushesthem off at bargain prices so as to make room for new arrivals, so there are lo dull days in his establishments. He m ikes bargains simply for the sake of miking people happy, by b(iug well dressed and well gowned and in doing so he has struck the key note of success which has led 011 to fortune and to fame. His stores are beautifully lilted up and are filled to overflowing with the choicest products of American aid foreign looms and with a bc-autiful assortment of goods from the factories and workshops,all of which wire purchased with spot cash, which commanded the lowest possible market price, the benefit of v\ hich he gives to his customers. Remember that in bargains Mimnaugh leads and others imitate. His clerks are polite and accommodating and will take pleasure in supplying your wants.

It is suit! that there are 120,000 Spaniards under arms in Havana. There are seven German warships in the Bay of Manila. 0,000 soldiers have been sent to reinforce Shatter from Tampa. Lieutenant Blue, of this State, has j again entered the Spanish lines anil made an investigation. The third Spanish squadron has been formed. Tt consists of some fine ships. The first trarspoits which left San Francisco have not yet arrived at Manila. Camara'sphantom squadron is said to b) at the entrance of the Suez canal and on its way to meet Dewey. The reported killing of fighting Bob Evans and some of his men in the conning tower of the Iowa, turns out happily to be a canard. The two hostile armies at Santiago are within sight cf each other, and sharp shooters occassionally exchange shots. Admiral C-imara i9 said to have made extensive preparations to coal in the Ked Sea and the Indian ocean. The Cinaries and the Spanish coa9t, according to the Navy Department, are practically defenseless from a sea attack of competent warships The third fleet of vessels sailed from San Francisco for Manila on oc Tl narriorl tihrmf.

The gunners at Morro Castle and at other Spanish batteries are said tj have been taken from foreign warships and are sympathizers of Spain in her present struggle. Report says that it is the intention of Uncle Sam to send Commodore "Watson to Spain to bombard her chief seaport cities and that the Dons say "they will meet the Americans as they deserve." Sigsbee, of the St. Paul, was atticked off Porto Rico by a Spanish cusier and the torpedo destroyer Terror. He greatly damaged the Terror and put the other vessel to flight. Fully 5,000 insurgents, nearly all the available fighting force of the insurgents in the Southern part of Santiago de Cuba province, are (oi centrated at or near Juragua. The soldiers are almost naked. It was b' lieved that Admiral Cervera contemplated making a dash out of Santiago harbor last Suuday night, but the dash did not materialize. It is said that the dynamite shells of the Vesuvius played havoc with Santiago. The Spaniards thought that an earthquake had struck the city and the people became panic stricken. On and after July 1, all bink cheques, drafts, mortgages and other evidences of indebtedness must have a two cent stamp on them. This is one of the provisions of the war revenue bill. Gen. Blanco is said to have issued a proclamation announcing that any one daring to express an unfavorable opinion of, or suspected of being dissatisfied with, the present p >1 icv of the government will be summarily shot without trial or investigation. An American official at Civite, near Manila, writes as follows: If great bloodshed and destruction comes to Manila, Spain may justly olame the Germans. Manila would nave surrendered before the arrival of the German squadron without bloodshed, but now, owing to the moral support of its presence, the city refuses to surrender. Gen. "Wheeler, who made a reconnaissance for half a mile beyond the skirmish lines near Santiago Tuesday, finding that he was unable to secure the desired view through the luxuriant tropical foliage, dismounted and climbed a tree. A Major General in the forks of a tree, surveying the Spanish outposts through his field glasses, was a spectacle that j gave some idea of the wonderful en- | ergy of the dashing ex Confederate j cavalry leader.
