Wednesday, December 14, 1904. Columbia a Mule Market. Some Surprising Figures. The Mule Business One of the Largest and Most Important. The Stare. Fifteen years ago the bulk of mules s )!d in this section were sold by the stock raisers themselves. Drovers, as they were called, would bunch up their stock gnd drive through or ship. South to the cotto.i country, generally making some good town their headquarters and retailing out their mules. Nowadays the business is conducted in an entirely different way. The breeder ships his stock to the wholesale markets and they are sold to the mule merchants who buy them for their regularly established places of business. The mule man of today buys his mules and places them on sale just as the merchant buys his goods and places them in his store for sale. About 13 years ago the Gregory Brothers, then doing a good mule business at Lancaster, S. 0., seeing an opportunity and believing in the future cf Columbia, oieied a retail business in this city on Plain street. Being supported by a strong concern it withstood the financial strains of '93, which told on so many in^all lines of business, and gradually grew until the year 1839 when it was decided to enlarge the business which resulted in the forming of a corporation known as the Gregory-Rhea Mule Company.1? This concern is now known far and wide as being one of ork-mo matmitnrlp TIIAV dn an PYfpnrfvft * O ' I business selling mnles by the hundreds and in dollars and cents counting way ' up in the thousands. They also handle in connection'quite a large number of veliicles. Mr. W. T. Gregory, president of the company, is a resident of Lancaster, S. C.. where he was born and raised. Mr. T. J. Harper, vice president, is a resident of Columbia and one of ourjinost substantial citizens. Mr. Jno. W. Conder, secretary and treasurer as well as manager, is well known in Columbia, was raised in Columbia, but got his early training in the office of j the Gregory Brothers at Lancaster. He is known as a man that represents his goods just as they are. Mr. Gregory7 is also the promoter and president of sale stables doing business at Lancaster, S. C., Bishopville, S. C., Timinonsville, S. C., and Cliarleston, S. C., and is considered one of the largest dealers in live stock in the State. Their bayer, Mr. J. M. Hood, also one of the stockholders, spends most of his time in the wholesale markets looking for bargains for their different places. He has plenty of gray hairs on his head and 'tis said can shut one eye and size up a mule as quick as anyone. A Guaranteed Cure For Files. Itching. Blind, Bleeding or Protruding Piles. Druggists refund money if Pazo Ointment fails to cure any case, do matter of bow long standing, in 6 to 14 days. First application gives ease and rest. 50o.

Salley, Dec. 7 ?The farmers of this section held a meeting here yesterday for the purpose of forming plans by which they can keep what cotton they have out of the market for aDy length of time, two years if necessary. There were about 350 cf the most prominent farmers of this section present at the meeting. They are all put of debt and have money enough ahead to carry on their business without drawing od their cotton. All the farmers at this meeting signed a pledge not to market aoy cotton for less than 10 cents per pound. Business is strong here. The merchants have had the best year for 20 years. * If the Baby is Cutting Teeth, Be sure and use that old and welltried remedv, Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup, for children teething.

The Supreme court of Kentucky has just granted a new trial?for the fourth time?to Caleb Powers, who was convicted for complicity in the murder of Gov. Goebel in 1900.
