the recent State law continues to cause the pension board some trouble, and a peculiar fact is that all the cases of fraud so far at- : tempted have been on the part of female applicants. A case was discovered yesterday of a i woman in Anderson, whose application ] for a pension as a widow of a Confederate j soldier was favorably passed on, and the ] monthly installments for April and May ( paid, who, by later information, is proven 1 to be no widow at all, having remarried < since the war. A full investigation has i been ordered by the board, which, here- 5 after, means to deal pretty severely with ! those caught trying to secure a pension to < . which they are not entitled. < MERE-MENTION. At an auction in London recently, an 4 egg of an extinct bird, the great auk, of , which only sixty-one are known to be in ] existence, was sold for $800. It is j computed that each minute in the United f States, night and day, all the year round, i twenty-four barrels of beer have to go J down 12,096 throats, and 4,830 bushels of 1 grain have to come to bin.

February 1 5 ly X OBITUARY. ; ^ ] Died?Near Bethel Church, on Saturday, ' Tune 9, 1888, Mr. I. G. STANTON, in the 78th rear of his age. JAMES G. PLEXICO was born in Union ] ounty, S. C., August 27, 1816, and entered into est on the morning of May 30,1888. He moved to York county with his venera- j )le parents, two brothers and three sisters, in ] he year 1835. He was the youngest of the j amily and the last to pass awav. On March . .2,1846, he was happily married to Miss Nar- J iissa E. Feemster. God blessed this union vith ten sons and one daughter; but death iarly entered the household and two of the :hilaren wer^ taken in infancy ; another son ind his only daughter following, and on March IJ 1867, the "mother was also taken. On Decern- 1 )er 3,1868, ho was again united in marriage to Hiss Elizabeth L. Sherer, with whom he lived ill his death. God also blessed this union vith two sons, making nine sous now living, vho stood around his bed and witnessed his r ast struggle. Seldom has a community been called upon 1 0 give up one so universally loved and rejected. Like David, he possessed great mu;ical talent which was not buried, but which vas used to the glory of God. Early in life he :onnected himself withJBullock's Creek Presjyterian Church. He served many years as beacon; and, for the last twenty years, as Eller. "His labors in the Church militant are at 1 .n end, but the fruits of his labors still remain." lis influence has been for good; his life a blessng to those with whom he associated^and his leath a benediction to us all. He has gone, we rust, to that world where "No more fatigue, no more distress, Nor sin, nor hell shall reach the place; No sighs shall mingle with the songs "Which warble from immortal tongues. "No rude alarms of raging foes, No cares to break the long repose, No midnight shade, no clouded sun, But sacred, high, eternal noon." JNO. L.

'THl SEff YOBK BACKET STOBE A6AH1 "Millions for Defense, but not one cent for Tribnte !" OUR NEEDLES AND PINS ARE HERE! Boys Clothing, Cut in the Very Latest Agony at $1.50 a Suit. OUR GREAT SUMMER SALE Will begin JUNE 15TH and continue until August 31st. SINCE opening our doors to the public, less than a month ago, we have done an immense business in our every department. The only impediment, as we took occasion to remark last week, is the irregularity of receiving freight. But we think that we have made our arrangements to surmount this and every other obstacle on our onward march. We not only think it, but know it. 4 As was Btated in the outset, we cannot sell "staple goodB" for a less price than our neighbors, for the simple reason that they are sold at cost as "baits," to mislead, etc., and we did not desire to handle that class of got is; but the demands to do so have been so strong that we have yielded to the "wishes of the people" and will, in the futuro, carry in stock everything in the mercantile line save groceries, drugs and whisky! We have in stock seven bales of Alamance Plaids which we think are as good as their reputation! ^ * We are not naturally mean, hard-hearted or stingy. We mean to harm no one. We do not insinuate that "our brothers of the yardstick" have ever asked too much for their merchandise, and we rise above the selfishness of men and say go ye and BUY YOUR GOODS WHERE. YOU CAN BUY THE CHEAPEST, regardless of where or who it is. We mark our goods in plain figures so that every customer may see our prices, and see that we have no idea or intention of trying to get but one price from him. We sell to all alike. We regard no competition ! We are the only ones in Yorkville who can bny these goods. We have the exclusive control of them. "Wltr - 5 1 louf frnm >vc receivwu u lu^tci un u?uiuaj Charles Broadway Rouss saying that "a certain firm in your town (giving the name) had been buying hiB "trash" for ten years, and selling it at from one to three hundred per cent., or just low enough to compete with ruling prices. These gentlemen can buy no more goods from this SHOP! They had the opportunity years ago that your firm has availed itself of to-day. We are? thoroughly satisfied with your progress, and will back you for a million dollars. We think though, you should be in New Orleans." We inferred from this letter that the best quality of goods were returned by the customer simply because they would not yield one hundred per cent, and compete with regularly bought stock! If prices were high a month ago, who brought them down ? Again, the writer of the above letter does not know the good people of York county like we do, nor does he know how fully our minds are made up to stay in Yorkville and fight for low prices and our people, to the bitter end. WE HAVE COME TO STAY! We defy competition. We only ask an inspection of our goods?our prices sell them. Our stock, which is now upon our shelves, ready for our GREAT SUMMER SALE, which commences on next FRIDAY, the 15TII, in many instances was bought lower than our former stock, and our customers shall even receive this benefit, as we put a small percent, on our goods no matter what we think we can get for them, and with no regard for ruling prices, let them slide. We lead and never follow ! We underbuy, we undersell! What good would it do our customers if we bought our goods at ten cents on the dollar below New York cost, and held them on our shelves at ruling prices? None. Could we not get along without clerks ? Yes. But we have clerks to pay and we have to keep?htfn busy, and if good goods at low prices will ao it, we will work them till they have quite enough of it; and we must say that our corps of clerks are as courteous, affable and obliging as can be found anywhere, and, especially Miss Annie Bludworth, who has had ft thorough training in the Dry Goods and Notion departments, and who will be glad to meet her many friends and customers and give them our low prices. Suppose that you wish to buy 12 papers of needles at ruling prices. They would cost you just one dollar! But if you Cbme to us you can buy them for 12 cents ! The difference is 88 cents, which is worth looking after since the blackberry crop is reported as a failure. This 88 cents will buy a shirt' which is usually sold for 91.25, so it will be seen that you have $2.2;) worth of goods for just one U. S. dollar ! Our pins are also sold at one cent a paper, but we don't know whether they are cheap or not. Wo know what they cost! Again, the Handsaws which we sold before at 40 cents, go for 3f> cents this time. Not that they are not as good this time as they were before, but because we got them cheaper and we are giving you this benefit. We intend to make ourselves felt to the farthest limits of this grand old county and make our name a watchword in every home in it. We further intend that every cent's worth of trade that belongs to this market must be sold here, regardless of who sells it or at what price it is sold. We intend to make the difference betweeri CASH and CREDIT so much that the credit system will scare the most reckftss credit buyer out of his boots. We intend to carry on our Jewelry business. We intend to carry on our Dental business, and we intend to carry on our Racket business. Our repair work in the Jewelry department will be continued in our store room under the management of Mr. Speck. Dr. Cartwright's Dental business will be continued at his office, two doors south of tho Post-office. We are expecting an immense amount of freight between now and the 15th of June, which, added to our already large stock of goods, will enable us to paralyze the most skeptical. Our Buggy Whips are just half price. Our Tinware is amazingly low, and we will have an immense stock on hand. Don't forget Mi a l:?th of June. Our "Alamance Plaids" are sold at 5J cents by the bolt; G cents by the yard to cut it. Be sure to inspect our Boys' Clothing. Be sure to inspect everything we have; it is your privilege. Mr. Thos. C. Dunlap, Mr. Mason Carroll and Mr. Paul Gordon is with us and they will protect their friends. SPECK & CARTWRIGIIT are going to give Yorkville a real, genuine, healthy boom, commencing on the loth of this month. We are going to whoop 'em up !
