S. 1>., Jan. 1.?Justin l'c tigrcw, brother of
Senator l'etiigrew, died last night. He was '
45 years of age and leaves a wife and daugh- i
ter. He had been ill since Thanksgiving ,
day and his wife being an ardent be'ievcr in
the Christian science persuaded him to ac ?
cept that treatment. Last week relatives
Jiving in the city telegraphed to the Senator
in Washington to come home at once. As H
soon ns the Senator arrived he cleared his tl
brother's house of the theorist and ca'led n(

it was too late. The Christian scientists on . _
the other hand assert that lnd their treatment
been left alone he would not have died.

this year. That is a sad falling off fr< in
any foi mer year. We have always bo i* c I
that while our subscription list may not be
as large as some other pajcrs, it was the
best paying lht and, consequent')-, mere
profitable, rnd far more rnt>sfac o-y than |
larger lists of utnc'iablc subscribes
We induce I the price upon the ptotiii.-c of |
an increase of subscribers but we find it ha*

It must be | lain to u*ery fubsjriler in

of i ur year's labor unpaid, wc are ba lly

for us make any irnpri vemcnt in the Times
that will involve a dollar of extra expense
fi.r labor or material; neither of which, i is
well known, can he had without money, and
at thr lime nj' detirrri/, too.
We a| point each subscriber in arrenrs a

A Tempest in a Small Offioe.
Our y-ning flicn.l, W. NY. Johnson, has gj
ere>ted cuiisi Icr ihle excitement in the city p]
of Spartauburg hy securing the appoin'- tl
nmiit of mc of the Trial Justices of that ^
p?ui camimoy getting 'he palirv and unen- .
viable pi sitioti of Trial Just ce, when it is j.'
proverbial in Union that every Spartanbu g
man who has offered for office in this county
has been elec o I, sometimes two or three
tunes; ev.ry Spartan! urg man that comes {J*
to Utti n to go into business generally gets nu
the crttun of the trade, and receives every th
encouragement from our citizens; every
drummer that conies here from Spartanburg
goes home with his hat fuil of orders, while Rn
we have resilcnt agents continual'y hunt- fui
I mg icr mm send ng orders lo Sp r tanburg
merchants and mechanics for goods mid wj
work : nud last, (hough not least, the people <
of Union nro pacing n tnx of mills an- me
uually on $150,000 ta build a railroad to C01
a t eD(
Spartanburg. rf8
Taking all the above facts in view, and (lie 1
further fact that neither tfce citizens of Spar- ory
tanburg or the Spartanburg residents of Union
ever do aoy trading in Union, if they can
possibly avoid it, we c insider it base ingrati- Ida
to raise such on uncharitable howl against .
ins
the appointment of one Union young tuau to mec
the miserably small office of Trial Justice. \\
Why, gentleaieu, if you will send candidates old,
down here at the noxt election, judging front j"e '
the past, no doubt our people will girc them jj
wo or three of the county offices, and will ]aeio
livide trade with any merchants you may wish
end. Our people are net gluttons; tlioy are
nxious to divido with their po >rcr neighbors, ^hn

A mU 'nderrhutding about our chsr'er,
**nl the untimely death of Dr. Little, |rc*ident
of the Brotherhood, has de'avtd, ti a
reriHin extent, as prompt an orgiuizat on as
we desired. Jm
My boud wis approved nearly two moii'li*
ego, and some brethren soul in their nppIL
cations, together with the necessary fee.
But as we wdro not legally organised wjihsut V?
a charter, I cou'd not issue any poPotes so
s meeting of tho Directors was called to moot
on the 2nd ins'. In the meantime I sent a
oopy of 'lie oinatitut'on and rules of th? v
Brotherhood to etch Alliance in the County,.
(If ? >y Alliance failed to gel a copylhcy will
ptoasc notify tne nt once, so dint 1 may
forward lliein an tlier copy,) and ordered the
ncoc-sary blanks, books, eeal, eto.
At the mee'iog of Directors on the Sindv

Prior to geitii g cur charter, ono of our

to hint, bin hy a unanimous vote of the Dii colors

bo pnid- I mention this to show, that wliilo
wo do not expect to do as extensive business
as many other similar organizations, we do,
not t roposo to bo excelled l?y any for
promptness or fair dealing.
Let no one think there it anything of a
spccu'ativo chnrao cr c iuneote l with it. No

wilt rosp <nd with ono thousand member*,
I will guarantee thst it will not cost us ex,
ceding ten cents each | er annum, in addition
to the death assosstnetrs,
I do not sty this boastiigiy of our
enpnei'ivs to manage the institution; but
the reasons are pain: Ttero are n0 salaried
agents jor otlioc s, no rents f -r offices,
etc., and ns'ottr i^ecretary and Trea?urer is
required to give an approved bond for thr?e ^
| times tne amount 01 money rust can possibly
pass through his hands, there can be no lose
| by him.
See. 17, of i ur rules, requires the directors
in each Alliance toattond t > the affairs
of tho Brotherho d in their respectiTe Al1-nnccs;
and I appeal to them t? bring this
Insurance business before their Alliances ai
once. The more mcmhois we liavo the larger
policy wo ran pay.
Every member of Fi.sli Dam Al ionce Is a
m.-mb-r of the Br.o htSrliood ; and every A'- *
liance in the o< uniy will do as well as Fish
Dam, if our directors a'l do thoir duty.
1 need not urgo upon tho Order the brnefits,
necessity, or economy of fraternal life
i- surance. lis economy is apparent at a
glance, its necessity ought to be apparent to
nil ; and is, to those osp?caUy win hare ilio
welfare of their wives, mo'hers, children, *
and others dependent up n thcin, at heart.
Tho t Aiinfii of 1 fo insurance is best seen
when death unexpectedly takes you from
your loved one*, and when impatient and
uttcha-itab'c creditors swoop down upon
your estate and force it to sale at one-half i a
va'ue to liquidate thoir accounts.
If this Brotherheo 1 bo themons of saving
o- ly 0'ic woman's home or stock from
the Sheriff's hammer, I aha'I never regret
any lnb r or money thai 1 may spend upon
it. lint i hi * Brotherhood oanuot benefit
