Children's Day.
Children's Day at Horeb Methodist
church last Saturday, was a very
happy and joyful occasion both to
the young and old hearts. Appropriate
and interesting ceremonies
were held, having for their object the
instruction of the young and old in
the work which necessitated the
adoption of these days for the accomplishment
of a noble work among
the children. Everybody present
enjoyed themselves to their utmost
capacity and returned to their homes

An Uncertain Dlwau.
There is 110 disease more uncertain in its
nature than dyspepsia. Physicians say that
the symptoms of no two cases agree. It is
therefore most difficult to make a correct
diagnosis. No matter how severe, or under
what disguisedyspepsia attacks you. Browns'
Iron Bitters will cure it. Invaluable in all
diseases of the stomach, blood and nerves.
Browns' Iron Bitters is sold by all dealers.
Oats Fcr Sale.
We have for sale a large lot of
baled oats which we offer for sale at

Heavy Rains.
Nearly every afternoon during last
week copious showers have fallen
doing much good to growing vegetation.
Some of the rains were heavy
and in some places the roads were
considerably washed. The mill dam
of Mr. John Snelgrove broke and the
factory dam at the flume was strained
but fortunately the strain was successfully
withstood; a lot of cord wood
was washed off the wood yard of the
mill and with this exception, however,
no damage was done by the
swolen streams.

.Death o! Mr. james r. jyieeize.
Death has again invaded our community
and laid its icy hauds upon
one of our best known citizens and
removed him from our midst.
Mr. James P. Meetze departed
this life in the early morning of July
0th, 1808, after a lingering illness of
several weeks. In the prime of his
manhood when a life of usefulness
lay before him with bright prospects,
the grim reaper gathered him to
a rrrcof
D >T Cll IUU 1XJ ajUl I VJ WVJUliU l U V vuv
divide. He was a useful citiz?Q,
progressive and enterprising, always
taking an active interest in all movements
baviDg for their object the up
buildiug of his county and town, and
contributed of his time and means in
carrying out successfully everything
he undertook to accomplish. He was
unselfish in his devotion to family
and friends, and those who were
fortunate enough to hold his friend
ship found him to be true and steadfast.
Knowing liirn from a boy we
attest to his many good qualities of
heart and soul and not a more warm
hearted and generous man lived than
James P. Meetze, and in his death
the town and county has last a most
valued and devoted son whose place
will be hard to fill.
His funeral services were conducted
last Sunday morning at the
Kaminer Hotel, of which he was the
proprietor, in the presence of a large
number of relatives and friends. His
pastor, the Rev. J. G. Graichen, of
St. Stephens, read the impressive
burial service and then brifly, but
eloquently and beautifully touched
upon the life and character of the
deceased. His remains were interred
in St. Stephens cemetery, there to
await the time when the Master comes
to make up his jewels. The sympathies
of the entire community go out
to the bereaved family of the departed
one, especially so to the stiicken
wife and two small children. May
the God of the widow and the orphan
take them under the shadow of
his wing and temper the winds to
meet their condition.
Ex Senator Donald Cameron, who
is now in London, has cabled Secretary
Long offering the government
the free use for hospital purposes of
his magnificent estate on St. Helena
island, opposite Port Royal, this
State. The acceptance of the offer
is left to the Surgeon General.
General Miles sailed from Charleston
on Yale, last Saturday for Cuba.
It is said that he will command the
Porto Itico invasion army. He has
ariived at Siboney, off Santiago and
is looking over the situation.
Gen. Sh ifter has sent the war department
the following complete
report of his lost on July 1 aud 2:
Killed, 22 officers, 208 enlisted men.
Wounded, 81 officers, 1,203 enlisted
men. Missing, 79 enlisted men. TLe

Hotel and will keep it up to the high
staudard which it earned under the
management of her late husband.

Peace talk is becoming more loud.
The Spanish Cabinet has resigned.
Gen. Wheeler is inside the Span

The American dynamite guns were

with such absolute precision
that the first shot obliterated it.
General Shatter said that be would
not be surprised if he took Santiago
in three days.
Kingston, Ja., Monday, July 11,
noon.?From 4 o'clock this afternoon
until dark the American guns have
again been pouring a deadly fire into
the Spanish lines.
Our men are greatly refreshed by
their three days'rest and h ive been
fighting with lion like spirit. The
knowledge of the arrival of reinforcements
gives them rew enthuiasm.
General Shafter has notified General
Toral, the Spanish commander,
that by President McKinley's direc
tion, the Spanish proposition to surrender
if the garrison was allowed to
leave fully armed and with flying
flags, has been rejected and the
United States would accept no terms
but immediate and unconditional
surrender. The armistice has been
ended by the Spaniards opening the
on the Americans Sunday with a
light battery ot artillery, which was
soon silenced by a heavy discharge
from the American batteries.

Gents: My mare ran away with the empty buggy, ran into another buggy
smashed its wheels, turned my buggy clear over and lit right side up on its
wheel. Not a seam started, not a bolt broken, not a clip out of place and
I he only damage was a bent dash and the back jammed to one side and a
few cracked spokes say one or two each wheel. The dash and back were
straightened in ten minutes and I have med the buggy daily since without
any repair on wheels, am using it today. Very truly,
A. L. "WOODWARD.
S'OTE-"ROCK HILL" Buggies are made with the greatest care and from the best
material obtainable, and are warranted as represented. Thoy cannot, therefore, be sold
rt the price of "cheap johu" stuff made hurriedly, painted quick and throw t together.
Hut the advance in price is so very little above the Western (rash that no sensible man
will object to pay it in order to pet something he hmrs is the be.->t. Sold by all first
lass dealers in every town and city in the South. When you need a buggy insist upon
four dealer supplying yon with a "ROOK HILL." If he will not do it because the
;>rofit to him is nothing like what it would be on the elapp-frap stuff, write us. We'll
ice you get a genuine "ROCK HILL" Buggv at the right price.
