AN UNUSUAL CASE.
Thepftuation ot Mary E. Williams, in jail under
sentence of death for poisoning her husband
and three step-children last summer, presents a
c use that seldom occurs to delay the administration
of justice. At the time of her trial and on
rising to receive her sentence she intimated to
the presiding Judge that she was in a fair way
to become a mother; and in view of her statement,
which however, medical authority at that
time could not confirm, the Judge appointed the
12th of this month as the day of execution, allowing
ample time for testing the truth of the
prisoner's representation. As the time is rapidly
drawing nigh, the .Sheriff deemed it his duty
to call medical experts to make a professional
examination of the prisoner, and on 'Thursday
summoned I)rs. John F. Lindsay and Hugh G.~
Jackson for that purpose. After making the examination
they furnished the Sheriff the following
written statement:
York villi-:, S. C., January 28. 1888.?We. the
undersigned practicing physicians of York county,
having been called on by R. H. Glenn, Sheriff
of said county, to examine Mary E. Williams,
now confined in York county jail and under sentence
of death, to be executed February 12th,
188(5, declare that we tind the said Mary E. Williams
in a state of "pregnancy.
John F. Lindsay, M. I>.
H. G. Jackson, M. I>. *
The Sheriff has forwarded a copy of this statement
to the Governor, to Judge Kershaw, who
presided at the trial, the State's Solicitor and the
prisoner's counsel, and is awaiting a respite,
which of course the Governor will grant.
THE REWARDS PAII).
The Augusta-C/ironiWe of last Saturday says:
Lieut. Twiggs visited the Governor's office at
Columbia, yesterday, and received the reward
offered for the capture of Bishop, the alleged
murderer who was captured here recently. He
had been gone less than one hour when the Governor
received a telegram that other parties would
claim the reward. This notice came, however,
"a day after the feast." The local authorities at
Black - paid the reward they had offered for
Bishop, and Lieut. Twiggs had with him the
receipt of the sheriff of York for the prisoner.
The Governor's reward was offered for the apprehension
and delivery of Bishop to the sheriff
of York, and as Lieut. Twiggs had delivered the
prisoner to the proper parties he received the
reward.
We do not know who the "other parties" were
who claimed the reward offered by the Governor,
nor does it matter to the general public to
whom it was paid; but an impression prevails
that Mr. Speights and Conductor Armstrong
should come in each for a share of the reward.
Mr. Speights identified Bishop, and through the
conductor's instrumentality?Bishop says by
locking the doors of the car in which he was
seated, and tailing to call out Mayville station,
but running by at full speed?it was an easy
matter for the Augusta police to board the car
at the appointed time and secure their man.
Any rural trial justice's constable could do all
the Augusta police accomplished, and not feel
like boasting, either.
J^EATH OF A. BAXTER SPRINGS.
JHiisgK^leman, a native, and for the greater
Jparl of his life a citizen of York county, died
/in New York city on Wednesday of last week.
/ Intelligence of his death was received herewith
sadness by a large number of citizens, where
he was well known and highly respected. TTTft
His death occurred at one o'clock yesterday
afternoon at the institution which he had entered
for treatment, two months ago. At the time
of his death. Col. Springs was attended by two
of his sons, Mr. E. B. Springs, of this city, and
Mr. Austin Springs, of New York, by whom
the sad news was telegraphed to the family connections.
Mr. Springs left Charlotte for New
York two months ago for treatment for a disease
which had only recently developed in his system,
and aftqr an^examination by the physicians
it was found that a surgical operation was necessary.
The operation was at once submitted to
and though Col. Springs experienced considerable
physical exhaustion in consequence, it was
believed that his recovery was sure. The weeks
went by, however, and his strength gradually
failed, though it was only within a few days past
that any apprehension was felt in regard*to his
condition. Tuesday evening he began to sink
rapidly and never rallied. But few of our people
were aware that Col. Springs was in New
York, and fewer still knew of his illness, and
the sudden announcement of his fatal sickness
and death, proved a great shock to our people.
Col. Andrew Baxter Springs was in hisdsth
year, and was a native of South Carolina, having
been born in York county. He was a man
of much prominence and* great popularity
among the people of that State, and was repeatedly
elected to serve his county in the Legislature.
During the war he used his large fortune
to a good advantage by aiding the cause of the
Confederacy and furnishing helo to the soldiers.
He moved to Charlotte to reside about twelve
vears ago, and his worth was at once appreciated
by our citizens. Col. Springs was very justly
regarded by our people as a good and useful
man. He was quiet in his ways, conservative
in his views, and was possessed of a kind and
genial disposition. He took an active interest in
the upbuilding of his adopted city, and was a
prominent figure in railroad circles, being President
of the Atlantic, Tennessee <fc Ohio Company
and a director of the Charlotte, Columbia
A Augusta, at the time of his death. In his
death, our people realize that Charlotte has lost
another good man, and one whose presence will
be painfully missed.
His remains were brought to Charlotte for interment,
and on Friday laid at rest in Elmwood
cemetery, and was followed to the grave by a
very large concourse of citizens and sympathizing
friends. The services over the remains
were conducted by Rev. J. H. Thornwell, of
Fort Mill. Mr. Thornwell's remarks were peculiarly
touching and appropriate to the sad occasion
and came as a healing balm to the hearts
of the sorely bereaved family. At the conclusion
of the services at the church the body was
borne to the cemetery, Messrs. J. H. Carson, M.
P. Pegram, W. J. Yates, J. C. Burroughs, A.
Burwell, John Wilkes, Thomas Grier and Dr.
J. H. McAden acting as pall bearers.

Case of 14 years' Standing and 110 Symptoms
as yet of getting any worse.
The first application of the Longman ifc Martinez
Pure Prepared Paint to a buiding in York
county, was made on the present residence of
Mr. J. J. Hunter one of the proprietors of the
famous Mammoth Dry Goods Establishment of
Yorkville, in 1S72, 14 years ago. An examinaofthe
condition of the paint 011 the walls was
politely accorded the writer a few days since by
Mr. H. The paint skin is still whole and uniform,
shows neither crack, chalk nor scale ; in
fact seems little worse for its 12 years' wear with
the elements. Can any other paint show like
record? Every gallon sold, warranted and
"don't you forget it" and lvuykendal stands

WHAT'S UP NOW ?
^"ITITELL, Old Chap, what's up now? I am
T still on the war path, moving around,
and I find out that a groat many persons nre going
to change their place of trading. I know
that chauges are made every year, but not as
many as are being made this year."
"\\rell, my friend, what seem to be the causes
generally?"
"Well, Old Chap, it is charging them too high
prices. It has gotten out among the people that
the Old Chap does not do that. Some of the
sharpers have been comparing notes, and some
of them find at least ten per cent, in favor of the
Old Chap."
"Well, my friend, that is what I have often
told my friends, that if they would stick to me
they would save at least that much, and it seems
that they have found it out at last."
"Yes, sir, Old Chap, I know from what I have
heard and seen in my travels for the last 150 days,
that many of them have found out, or at least
they think they haye, and that is sufficient, and
you will see that you will have more new customers
this year than you have had for sometime
past. I have heard them say so, and I know
they mean business. I often hear the question,
I being from York, they think I know everything
that transpires there, Mr. , what is up
in town now ? Who sells the most, and who
sells at the least profitttV-Well, of course, I being
a public man myself, cannot answer definitely.
I only remark that I and my family trade
with the Old Chap. He keeps good goods and
sells them at reasonable prices, and gives you 3(5
inches to every yard you buy?not 35 inches, and
deals with you fairly and squarely. All that is
required there is to see Mr. H. C. Strauss and fix
up your credit all O. K., and you can buy your
goods at cash prices from the Olil Chap. That is
one reason why the Old Chap never made much
money, he always sold goods too cheap, and sold
too good goods for the money, and that is why
so many people are being converted to him today,
because you can buy better goods for less
money from the Old Chap than from almost any
one else. Now, gentlemen, do not take my word
for it, but go and see for yourselves. ' What's
up?' Go and buy a little roll there, and you will
soon find out 'What's up, now?' If you don't,
your pocket-book will, and that generally has
the keenesteve, anyway. > ow, my aear trienas,
see the Old Chap's'prices and they will certainly
do your pocket good, and that is what most people
need these hard times; for pocket-books
generally have an attack of what is known
among horsemen as swainey, or a shrinking of
the shoulder. So it is a shrinking up of the
pocket-book?nothing inside to till it out. Now
the Old Chap has a perfect remedy for that disease,
and it is quite simple : Do your trading
with him and your pocket-book will never have
an attack of this terrible malady, (after this year
sis the disease is pretty generally spread now.)
Well, Old Chan, wake up. I have been tsilking
about thee, anu now, my old friend, you must
not step back an inch, you must face the music,
and you will hear from me again, when I return."
"Thank you, sir, replies the Old Chap, no
trouble to stand l?y such plain facts as you have
been relating, ami the one-half is not yet told.
Good afternoon." Well, gents, my friend has
been talking, so he has left and I will have to
take up the cudgel. I am certain that what he
says about new men coming to trade is so, for
many of them have their names on my books,
and I have the cash of others in my pocket, so I
know this is correct. Many others are falling
into line, and many more will yet come.
Ladies remember, any sewing done in our
Dress-making department must be CASH. As
we have told you before we make nothing out of
it, and have to pay the ladies every Saturday
night. This being the caso, we must have the
cash in that department, and please don't forget
it.

Dr. SAMUEL A. SLICK'S ADVICE.
DR. SLICK, a well known physicians of the
cold regions, says : "For health, beauty
and happiness" it is essential that we dier. ourselves,
as follows. "For Breakfast we should
have a cup of old Java coll'ee, best Granulated
sugar and fresh Condensed milk, prepared in
Switzerland?for Cream; some nice warm Biscuits
made of Potapsco Superlative Flour, raised
by the all powerful "Silverspoon Baking Powder"?which
costs only 25 cents and with each
box, the purchaser gets a handsome present
worth the money. You should have on your
table also at this meal, a dish of Pearl Hominy,
some Headless Mackerel, a slice of nice Breakfast
Strip and a saucer of Thurber's Pin-Head
Oat Meal. Change Plates. (If you have but one
set go to headquarters and purchase). Now after,
all this trot in a pile of red hot, Hecker's SelfRaising
Buckwheat cakes, on ice, all buttered

FITNESS OF THINGS.
LEARNED men talk about the eternal fitness

is a proper place for everything in time. Reader,
there is a proper place to buy everything, and
we think ours is the Store to get Groceries, Hardware,

The purchase of these articles seems a small
matter, but an impure article might ruin a stomueli

might yield the Yankee dealer a better profit
than the pure article, but they would not suit
consumers as well. We aim to sell unadulterated

A BIT OF HISTORY.
Over 100 years ago, David Landreth it Sons
engaged, near Philadelphia, in the business
of growing Garden seeds for sale. The business
proyed profitable, the demand for his seeds in- - .
creased yearly until now their farm dented to
the growth of Garden seeds alone embraces over
1800 acres.
For 18 years of the century we have been selling
their seeds, being the principal dealer in this
section of the country. In 5 years past an agent
of the House has paid us an annual visit in
November and burned in the public street all
the seeds remaining from our supply of the
past season. As far as we know, no other House
in the world does this. Landreth <fc Sons burn
the old stock of no other dealer in their seeds in
town, except ourselves.
Onr 18th annual supply is in store and every
seed from last year's growth. And now, "Sir or
madam truly" need I tell you where to buy
your garden Seeds ?
FERTILIZERS.
We have in our warehouse and to arrive, the
Celebrated Pacific Guano, Pacific Acid, Irish
Dissolved Bone, Chesapeake High grade Guano,
L. A R. high grade Guano and Acid and Kainit.
The above brands of Acids and Guano, we control
in this territory antf we trust that all our
f/ood old customers will continue to get their
supplies from us, and we respectfully invite the
patronage of many good new ones.
WE WISH TO REALIZE
