A First Class Flour Mill. The demand upon the capacity of Mr. E J. George's roller mill last season was so great that it was only by hard and incessant work that he was able to meet it. He has doubled I the capacity cf bis plant and is there- j fore better prepared to turn wheat j into flour with more satisfaction and 1 with better results than heretofore, j His patrons can rest assured that they will get better returns from the wheat ; in a superior quality of flour than heretofore. If jou want the best j results take your wheat to Mr. j George's mill.

Elegantly sugar coated. Take No Substitute. <*? Roal Bargains. M. Frank, the clothier and gents1 furnisher of Columbia, calls attention to some real bargains, which he is coring in the clothing line. These goods are of the latest weave?, are well made and cut in the latest fashionable styles and are fully worth double the sum asked for them. Give him a call, see the goods and the prices will do the rest. An Old Friend. The friends of Mercer Brown will be glad to learn that he is doing well at his home in Maryland. It will be remembered that Mr. Brown was at one time a Magistrate at this place. o *. and a member of our bar, later he made a political canvass of the county for Judge of Probate, in which his fiddle and songs were interesting features of his campaign work. He like ourself, however, is growing older and he is not as sprightly as he was in the days that have gone. He now '-has no teeth to eat the hoecake, nor hair on the top of his he id, where the hair ought to grow," but as fly time is fast approaching he can spend the long days fightiDg fiies which persist in tickling his bare cranium, as he did in the dava - Ul JUxt). Pay Day. Last Monday was pay day for the members of the Township Boards of Assessors, the Board of Equalization, Magistrates and their Constables and the other county oSieers, and the Board of County Commissioners were kept quite busy issuing checks. The payment of these claims, together with other sundry accounts, ran the quarterly expenses of the county up to an astonishingly large amount. The Commissioners compromised two damage claims for injury to stock and vehicles, one for $15 and the other for $20. Still the people grumble on account of high taxes yet when they get the chance they reach far down into the public treasury, but who cares for expenses when the county pays the bills. Death of Mr. D. P. Burnett. We regret to learn that Mr. David P. Burnett of Irene, dropped dead yesterday morning. Mr. Burnett bad been a sufferer for some time with dropsy, but his friends had no idea that his end was so near at hand, and when the news of his death began to be circulated thev could scarcely realize that it had come and that his spirit had winged its ever lasting flight to that unknown county beyond the grave. The Many admirable traits of character of this estimable man endeared him to his large circle of friends and acquaintances and made him a prime favorite with them. He served with gallantry and bravery throughout the Civil War, being a member of Company I, Gunter's company, 20th Regiment S. C. Y., and his comrades in arms who knew him intimately, speak in the highest terms of bis worth as a man, a scldier and a citizen. One more of the fast depleting ranks of the "Boys who wore the Grey" has answered to the last roll call, and over his bier we drop a tear of sympathy and respect. True to ITame.
