? The Clarendon Times says: Later advices
from the Western part of Clarendon
county give distressing details of the damages
wrought by the cyclone. One lady had
her jaw bone broken, while others sustained
ipjuries more or less serious. It is reported
that Mr. Weeks had caught around a
tree, but his hold was torn loose by the violence
ot the wind, and he was hurled for
some distance, striking the ground with
such force as to break several ribs and inflict
injuries which we sincerely hope may
not prove so serious as reported. Mr.
Weeks' premises, Mrs. Manning's and Mr.
Garrett's, we learn, are greatly damaged.
? Judge Aldricft wno nas Deen sunenng
for several months with neuralgia, recently
went to Baltimore to seek surgical relief.
Respecting his present condition the Columbia
Register of Friday says: A friend received
yesterday from Baltimore the gratifying;
intelligence that the nerve of Judge
Aldrich's face was operated upon, on tne
24th ultimo, for neuralgia with perfect success
so far. Dr. Tiffany, who operated, said
on the 2oth ultimo, after dressing the face,
"the patient is getting along finelyand
says the writer, he is cheerful, eats well,
and hopes to hold court in Orangeburg the
latter part of the approaching term.
? Says the Florence Times: On FrMay]
morning last, Elias Graham, a one-legged
colored shoemaker of Florence, was found
dead on Dargan street. The coroner held
an inquest, the verdict of the jury being
that he came to his death by drink and exposure.
His body was allowed to remain
where it was found, on a prominent street
and near a private residence, from Friday
morning until Sunday, when it was buried
by council. It does not seem possible that
a human being should be subjected to such

To My Friends and Patrons.
THE glorious old year of 1884 is past and gone
with all its triumphs, and trials and wants;
which have wrought many changes, either con- j
firming our brightest expectations or revealing
to us our disappointments: it is with feelings of
gratitudeand pleasure that I review our business I
relations during the past year, and with infinite !
satisfaction that I find myself better prepared to j
serve your wants during "the year 1885, which is ,
now upon us and presents prospects and opportunities
of a brighter and more prosperous nature
than we have had before the agricultural
community since 1878. Provisions and gram,
sugar and* coffee, plantation hardware, and, in
fact, all lines of goods necessary to plantation
use, are cheaper, on an average, than since the
war, and a good prospect of being able to cover
the expected cotton crop at the old plantation
password, "TEN CENTS," which should stimulate
us all to put our shoulders to the wheel and
do evervthine in our power to make this the
crowning year for our southern country.
IX PARTICULAR.
I have a large stock and ample means for taking
care of a large trade this year, and will protect
the interest of any and all who make tueir
bills with me.
Special Inducements to Cash Buyers.
I will not be undersold by any competitor in
the trade, and will see that they are low enough
or I will have all the trade. I offer 100 barrels of
N. 0. Molasses, and 4,000 pounds of N. O. Sugar,
cheaper than ever known, and can tickle your
fancy on everything I offer for sale.
OX HAXD.
100 Sacks Pure German Kainit.
200 Sacks Cotton Seed Meal.
100 Sacks world-renowned Plow Brand Guano.

BUY THE BEST.
THE undersigned has taken the agency for the
sale of the THOMPSON PIANO, one of the
best instruments in the market, and also for the
sale of the ORGANS manufactured by the Great
Western Organ Company.
The Pianos I represent are in different styles,
both square and upright, full 7$ octaves, and besides
having all the modern improvements of the
best makers, with highly ornamented ease and
superior finish throughout, have also three
strings in the treble, and are thus nearly equal in
tone and power to the Concert Grand. 1
I represent ten styles of Organs, and can suit j
any purchaser as to quality and price. If you ;
contemplate the purchase of an instrument? j
either Piano or Organ?do not buy until you con- ,
fer with me. I can suit you with either instru- I
inent and will make prices satisfactory. Every
instrument fully warranted by the "manufac
turers. There is no longer any excuse for paying
a fancy price for a piano hearing the name of
some old, aristocratic maker?which name is i
usually the only thing to recommend it?when
you can buy one equally as good in every respect '
for half the money. Correspondence invited,
and all information cheerfully furnished. :

THE MAMMOTH.
A T the commencement of each year, all of us,
/V more or less, make new resolves ; or, to use
i popular phrase, "turn over a new leaf," and
change our course for the future. All this is
very good and necessary in many cases; but we
3o not intend to mend our ways. We are going
to stick to the old motto of the past, which has
so often been faithful and led us to success and
which, in the course of time, is bound to win ;
that is,
A Dollar's Worth for a Dollar,
Fairness toward all, and partiality toward none ;
always keeping on hand a full and superior
stocl< of
DRY GOODS,
At the very lowest possible prices. Knowing the
trade as we do, and endeavoring in every fair
way to please them, and having their confufence,
we feel that the present year, and each year as
time passes on, will add fresh laurels to our success,
and that
A Millennium is Now at Hand,
When every tongue will speak forth the truth
and declare tho Mammoth
HEADQUARTERS
For Dry Goods in Yorkville.
We do not attribute all of the success%of the
Mammoth to ourselves; but she is the offspring
of the people, nurtured and reared by them from
infancy, and now they can point to her and exclaim
with pride, this is our handiwork ; and
having been reared in the true path, now she is
grown up she will not depart therefrom, but try
to reflect credit on herself and be worthy of all
interest taken in her heretofore, and of all patT-rvn
n r*r\ KflofAuro/1 rvn hor llflrfluftfir
Our stock, as we have said, though bearing the
traces of the salesman's scissors, and the appreciation
of the people for select and reliable goods,
our counters still show up a
Well Assorted Stock of Goods,
A stock that is all fresh and in season and style,
and we otter it in every department at the very
lowest possible prices. In Clothing, we can stiil
supply you with some of those Suits that are so
popular and so cheap, Suits of any style, color
ana material, and of the very best possible
MAKE AND FIT.
We know whereof we speak, as they have been
tested for nine years, with perfect satisfaction.
Several nice Overcoats left, which we will sell at
very low figures. Gents' Dress Shoes in all the
nobby styles, and a few of those
Popular Stiff Hats on Hand.
The perfect fitting Wheeler Ready-Made Dress
Lining and Sleeve Patterns always in stock.
AND NOW ALL WE ASK
Of the people is to spend 1885 with the same encouragement
they closed 1884, and to do by us
throughout the year as they did in the past, and
all will be well.*

AMID the manifold changes in the
year's drama, its shifting scenes, its
temporary entrances and its eternal exits,
the York Drug Store man has still the
privilege of a place on the stage, and rises
to thank his fellow actors in life's theatre
for their continued patronage and
support, to wish them length of days and
Godspeed in every laudable and lawful
aim, desire and undertaking in the future.
Our business for the past year has been
profitable, and our intercourse with our
trade, with a few exceptions, has been
exceedingly pleasant and satisfactory.
No one appreciates their customers
more than we do, or tries harder to take
care of them. Guaranteeing the quality
of all goods sold and being able to make
the terms easy and the prices right, we
hope to retain thc patronage of every one
who has heretofore dealt with us.

Great Inducements to Cash Buyers.
Every person purchasing TWO DOLLARS
worth of goods at one time will be entitled to
a chance. The names will be entered on a book
and each person's name numbered and on
TUESDAY, AUGUST 25, next, at 12 o'clock M,
1 every number will be placed in a box by three
! disinterested persons and a child who cannot
read will draw out the numbers. After the numbers
are drawn the book will be referred to and
see whose names stand opposite to the numbers
drawn and they will bo entitled to the above
prizes.
' THIS IS THE BIGGEST THING
Ever offered in Yorkvillo. The Old Chap gave
One Hundred Dollars away last August and the
lady who got the buggy had only two chances,
and you can see she did not trademuch with the
Old Chap. So it makes but little difference about
chances. The lady who got the sewing machine
> in '82 only had one chance. So you see every*
thing is done fair and square. This is no lottery
" or humbugging thing. It does not cost any one
a single cent, it is a free gift bv the firm; if it
' cost anything you might say it was gambling,
1 ministers of all classes and "denominations did
r not hesitate to take chances; the Old Chap would
not have anything to do with it if it was at all
in the nature gambling. It is only an inducement
for cash trade, so every person that comas
. to Yorkvllle and has two dollars to spend will
come and see the Old Chap, he will sell you
goods just as cheap and give you
i A Chance at A Fine Buggy,
t Gold and Silver Watch and a nice Sewing Mal
chine free of any charge, just for your kindness
of spending Two Dollars in cash with him and
for every 82.00 spent with him between now and
August 25th, he will give you a chance. For
) 84.00 you get two chances, '80.00 three chances,
and so on, you get a chance for every $2.00 spent.
Mrs. Minnie Walker got the Buggy, Miss Addle
a aim cmt tha Sowinc Machine and Mr. C. M.
Parrrot got the Watch, so you see from the above
the prizes vou will bo sure to get, and nice
ones too. T^he Old Chap is the first in Yorkville
to give his customers anything of this kind, in
fact he is always ahead in such things. He had
< the
FIRST MILLINERY STORE
And the first Dress Making Establishment in
Yorkville and all the above have proved a success
and others who have followed. If any one
deserves the cash trade it certainly is the Old
Chap, as he is offering what no other merchant
has ever offered to his customers. So every person
who has two dollars to spend call and see
the Old Chap. Bargains in all departments will
be offered now to reduce our large stock, especially
in heavy goods. Remember we keep the
Household, Singer, Howe and White Machines,
all of which are first-class machines and will be
sold as cheap as the cheapest, also Butterick's
Patterns and Muschowitz Waist Lining for sale.
Mrs. Dobson's Dress Making Department is in
full blast, turning out as usual, nice fits, good
work and at reasonable prices.

! LAST NOTICE.
The Old Chan would remind his friends who
; have not settled that they must do so at an early
day, as his books must be settled. Look out and
save cost. He needs and must have his money
very soon. Remember there are few of you if the
Old Chap had asked you for a loan of 8100 but
that would have remarked at once, "When can
vou pay and what security have yon to offer ?"
But the Old Chap sells you goods, that is lends
you money, as it were,'and asked no security
and now he has to beg you to come up and settle.
Many ho has to send for and then aoes not get
the monov. Just think how you would like to
