The recent removal of the headquarters
of the G. C. and N. Railroad has brought
several new citizens to Chester. Three oi
these are Mr. J. G. Williams, auditor ol
the road, Mr. Hazel Thomas, civil engineer
i and treasurer, who is a son of Col. J. P.
Thomas, of Columbia, and Mr. W. E.
Lane, train dispatcherand operator. The
latter gentleman will not have much to do
until tne telegraph line along the new road
reaches Chester, which will be now shortly.
Engineer Shiver, who runs the construction
train on the new road, has also moved
his family to this place.

Your correspondent dropped in the other
day and had a chat with Mr. J. K
Henry, clerk of the board of countj
commissioners, in regard to the mightj
work that the board has been doing. II
will be remembered that the heavy freshel
last September carried off nearly all the big
bridges in the'county. The commissioners
have done a great deal during the win
ter to repair that damage. They have finished
the repairs on the iron bridge at Ce
dar Shoals, expending on that work alon(
about $450, the contract having beet
awarded to Captain Halyburton. Thej
are also advertising for bids for the construction
of a six foot embankment, near
ly one hundred feet in length, to be built
for a roadway at the east end of this em
bankment. A waterway seventy-five feel
wide is also to be left at the east end of th(
fill, and bridged, as a precaution agains
future floods. This embankment, togeth
er with the waterway, will cost fully a
much as the repairs at the bridge, making
a total expenditure of nearly $1,000 at tha'
Eoint. Brown's bridge is also to be re
uilt at a cost of $350. But by far th<
biggest job on hands is the one near Rockj
Mooot. The old McAliley bridge there is
being replaced with an iron structure
( furnished and put up by the Atlanti
Bridge Company, Captain Halyburtoi
building the abutments. The cost of th<
work going on at this one place will foo
up about $6,000. The commissioners had i
sitting- one dav last week in regard to i
change in that part of the Saluda road ly
ing between the nine and ten mile posts
This part of the road was altered last yea
in oraer to dodge a bad ford on Fishinj
Creek. This seems to have made the roa(
v considerable longer, and a number of th
citizens of that part of the county thinkinj
that the change had not been ordered b:
the board, brought in a petition last weel
requesting-the commissioners to see tha
the old track should no longer be neglecte<
for the new. As the board had authorizet
the change before, they refused to enter
tain the recent petition, but promised tha
they would do so if the petitioners woult
give some assurance that the objectionabli
ford would be improved. Th9 petition
ers said they would endeavor to take step
in this direction, and so the matter wil
come up before the board again at som<
v future day.
A week or ten days ago, the town coun
cil received a letter asking what would b(
the prospect for obtaining a site here fo;
the location of a college to be founded bj
northern philanthropists for the educatior
of girls. The letter was written fron
High Point, North Carolina, and wai
signed by James O'Hara. Senator Patter
son answered the letter telling the writei
to come on and look around. This, Mr
O'Hara did promptly. When he reachec
Chester, he informed the good citizen;
here, who took him in charge, that he wa<
a Baptist minister, originally from Ala
bama, who had made considerable reputa
' tion of late throughout the North anc
Canada, as an evangelist. He says tha
he is now working for the foundation a'
the South of two schools, one for males
the other for females, the schools, or col
leges, to be built by capital obtained as in
dicated above. He further says that h<
has about decided on Salisbury for the lo
cation of the male school, and seems t<
be favorably impressed with Chester as ?
probable location for the other. Mr. O'
Hara lectured at the Court House Friday
night and preached here at the Methodist
and Baptist churches yesterday. Mr. O'
Hara will meet a committee of citizens to
day to explain further his plans.

i NOTES FROM BLACKSTOCK.
Blackstock, March 4.?The last issue
1 of The Enquirer was in great demand
down here, and all are agreed that its get
up does great credit to the enterprise and
I skill of its publisher.
The weather during the greater part of
last week was quite favorable for farming
operations, and our people seem to be
' going to work with a will. The small
t grain that was sown last fall is looking
, well, but there is, unfortunately, not near
; so much of this as there ought to be.
The rainy weather of yesterday morning
did not prevent a good congregation from
attending services at the Baptist church,
, where Mr. Adams preached an excellent
. sermon. In the afternoon the weather
' was much more favorable, and a large con'
gregation turned out to hear Mr. Duncan
at the Methodist church. This is only the
' third time he has been with us, but his genial
bearing and earnest style of preaching
have already won the hearts of the
i people. The Presbyterians had no preach
ing services yesterday, their pastor havi ng
gone to unester to nn tne puipit 01 .ttev.
George Summey, who is now taking a
, European tour. Mr. Summey has been
fortunate enough to secure some ministers
' in his place for nearly every Sabbath that
he expects to be absent from his charge.
Several gentlemen who were at the depot
yesterday, when the up-train arrived,
were witnesses of what might be termed
' a serio-comic affair. Four or five negroes
: alighted from tike train and began to make
i inquiries concerning the funeral services
1 of Bob McCulIough, which they had come
up specially to attend. Now Bob is one of
our local celebrities, and, we venture to
say, is as widely and favorably known as
any colored man along this line of railroad.
Inasmuch as some of us had seen
him in his usual health, and had heard
nothing of his sudden demise, the ludicrous
side of the affair struck us quite forc|
ibly. It seems that some negro had reported
the fact of his death at White Oak
in the morning, and several of his relatives
had come up to attend the funeral
services at five o'clock. These seemed
perfectly bewildered when they found that
there was nothing of the kind going on
up here. A roar of laughter greeted a re,
mark of one of the would-have-been
; mourners, "Den de people bin cryin and
i hollerin down dere all for nothin." A
' messenger had been dispatched in the
' meanwhile for Bob, and the hearts of his
' friends, who had mourned for him as dead,
were presently made glad seeing him
i alive and well.
i Mr. R. E. Browne, our popular railroad
agent, left for Washington yesterday to
J be present at the inauguration to-day.
Miss Mattie McCrorey, of Gladden's
> Grove, has been spending several weeks
, with the family of her cousin, Mrs. Kate
^ Mobley.
Mr. and Mrs. P. L. Langford are now
| visiting relatives in Blackstock and vicinity..
Mr. Langford was in charge of the
. depot at this place several years ago, and
. last November he came back to claim as
r his bride one of our sweetest young ladies,
^ Miss Tommie Hicklin.

LETTER FROM LANCASTER.
Lancaster, March 4.?This is an event'
ful day in the United States. President
j Cleveland's term of service expires to-day,
i and President Harrisou's begins. It is
r thought that the inaugural ceremonies to
day at Washington will be attended and
" witnessed by a larger assemblage of peo[
pie than has attended any inaugural since
t the foundation of the government. There
3 will be a great many from this State. The
t town of Lancaster will have at least four
eye witnesses. It is very nice, after a
* heated presidential canvass, to see the
[ party defeated everywhere bow with so
. much respectful submission, and that too
3 after the candidate of the party defeated
7 has received a large majority of the popu3
lar vote. President Cleveland has acted
^ magnanimously and has shown his sucj
cessor the most marked kindness and res
spect.
t All this speaks well for our Republican
1 form of government and the perpetuity of
1 our institutions. This good feeling ought
to be emphasized and recognized everyr
where, to the end that it may be kept up
% and strengthened in the hearts and affeci
tions of the people. History teaches that
e the time of danger to a country or govern
* ment is about the time of its transition
? from one political party to another. Int
deed it has been predicted of this country,
J that if the government is ever broken up
1 or changed in form, it will take place just
' after a presidential election. It must be
j confessed that twelve years ago, when
Q President Hayes was declared elected, the
- storm-clouds were very ominous, and fores
bode evil to the Republic. It is refresh1
ing to the hearts of patriots, that these
" angry clouds, with their evil forebodings,
have passed away and we have now a clear
3 sky.
r The greatest enemy to this* government
7 is the political demagogue who rises hab1
itually in his seat, on some sectional issue,
^ and endeavors to array section against section,
to advance selfish purposes. Such
r apparently was Kennedy, of Ohio, the other
day, when Judges Crisp and Turner, of
Georgia, exposed him so successfully.
Every American should be made to feel
that this is his government, and that,
considered all in all, it is the best government
now existing on this sublunary
sphere. And this should be the teaching of
every patriot from Alaska to Florida, and
from the Atlantic to the Pacific. For
truly the constitution of the United States
is a model in excellence.
The circuit court convened here to-day.
> Judge Fraser and Solicitor McDonald
1 reached here on Saturday evening. Ste~
nographer McCaw came on Sunday. There
t is a heavy criminal docket, which will
- probably consume the most of this week.
- It is thought that the civil docket is not
very heavy. Nosilla.

1 LETTER PROM UNION COUNTY,
t Etta Jane, March 2.?The last issue ol
The Enquikek did not only come up tc
1 the expectation of its most sanguine friends,
1 but it showed most conclusively to the
^ world that its mechanical as well as its
j literary department is second to none in
this country?North or South. The peo
pie of Yorkville and York county may
I i justly be proud that they have such a popj
' ular journal to represent their several inj
! terests. The first twenty-one years of my
r I life was spent with the people of York
! county, and I point with pride to theii
1; success. They merit everything that has
II been said of them. Those who have been
.j | so silly as to call Yorkville a "dead" town
j will find it a lively corpse to bury. Mosl
i- of the faces presented are familiar to me
, and I dare say that no town of the same
i size in the State can show a more honora;
ble, solid, intelligent and better looking
; set of professional and business men than
! Yorkville, some of whose portraits are
shown in the supplementary sheet. The
; beauty, intelligence and moral excellence
of the women are equal in every respect
to the worth of the men. No county ip
| the State has a better government than
York. On all the streams good and substantial
bridges are built, and its creditors
, are not paid with paper and promises.
From nearly all parts of the countrv
' reports reach us of some minister being
"pounded." We don't doubt but thai
, many of them need it, and it is a good
sign for the morals of our country. "Time
about is fair play." Minisiers, your time
comes next, and some of your parishioners
' no doubt need an exercise of the same
name, from an ecclesiastical stand-point.

Last year my little boy John had a breaking
out with sores all over his body, which was
painful and troublesome. After using other
remedies for several months, while the sores
grew worse, I was induced to give him Swift's
Specific. He began to improve at once, and
after taking three bottles the eruption was gone,
and the child was altogether healed.

THE undersigned respectfully informs the
citizens of Yorkville and the public generally,
that he has fitted up the room near the
Exchange Bank, formerly used as the post office,
where he' is p spared to
Repair Watches, Clocks, Jewelry, &c.,
In the very best manner.
Fine old English and Swiss Watches improperly
repaired or badly worn by use and given
up as time-keepers, can, in most cases, be restored
to their original usefulness at much less
expense than new movements can be fitted to
the cases.
Being supplied with IMPROVED TOOLS
and having bad years of experience in one of
the largest American Watch Factories, he will
guarantee to do good and faithful work at reasonable
prices. A share of the public patronage
is solicited. HENRY FORD.

FANCY CROCERIES.
IN consequence of the substantial appreciation
of the purchasing public of my determination
to buy and sell only the very best
grades of FANCY GROCERIES, (as well as
all other goods in my lines,) I have decided to
enlarge my FANCY GROCERIES DEPARTMENT
and have just received a large stock of
these goods. Wo have an especially fine lot of
OATMEAL ofa popular brand, which we have
received since our last announcement. Call
and get a package?or more than one if you
* like.
MAGNOLIA HAMS.
I have just received a choice lot of Hams of
the above named brand. They are too well
known to housekeepers to need any words of
praise from me. I am offering them at the low
price of 13J cents per pound.
FERTILIZERS.
I now have in my Warehouses about 100
TONS OF STA^pARD FERTILIZERS, and
I am confident that my goods and prices will
please. The brands handled by me have stood
the test for years, and are used, year after year,
by some of York's most intelligent and progressive
planters, and what higher endorsement
could they have or need ?

PURCHASING POWER OF DOLLARS.
MANY people throughout the country have
strong belief that dollars have supernatural
powers as a purchasing specific. This idea
comes largely from a class of people who
want to get two dollars worth of goods for one,
which is one of the impossibilities of the times.
I have been in business in Yorkville for sixteen
years, during which time I have visited
New York TWENTY-NINE TIMES UNDER
THE MOST FAVORABLE CIRCUMSTANCES,
and never yet have T found an individual
who would give me ONE DOLLAR'S WORTH
OF GOODS FOR FIFTY CENTS! But since
I have been doing business in Yorkville, a
number of my customers have loft me to trade
in other fields, but they have come back satisfied
that my goods are first-class and my prices
are as low as anybody's. All of the depart- |
ments of my business are conducted under one i
roof as economically as it is possible to do it, |
thereby enabling ine to run my business with- I
out unnecessary expense!
Prompt Payment Is Essential
To a good credit, which by the way is a very
good thing to remember, as I am one of the
very few in the Dry Goods business who extend
credit accommodations to patrons.
EIDERDOWN IN COLORS.
I have several pieces of Eiderdown left which
I will close out at a bargain. Call and see it.
I offer inducements for cash and you will do
well to call and see me when you want anything
in my line.
Buying on Credit With Money in Yonr
Pocket
Is a practice which a large number of people
opgage in and which works nothing but em^arrassuieut
and extravagance to parties who
indulge in it. You need credit when you have
no money, and your credit is measured by
your disposition and ability to pay. Of course
if you buy necessary goods on credit and pay
cash for luxuries, you are more than apt to
jeopardize your credit and probably work
hardships which may require a life time to
overcome.
UNDERWEAR FOR LADIES.
I have a large stock of Underwear for Ladies
and Children which I am closing out at greatly
reduced prices. Call and examine this stock
of goods. Also Children's Underwear.
A Job Lot of Hair Brushes and Combs.
I have just received a job lot of Hair Brushes
and Combs which I am able to sell at very
close figures. Call and get one while you have
the oportunity.
500 YARDS OF JEANS.
I have on hands 500 yards of the very best
quality of Jeans which must and will be sold.
The price at which I am offering it is very low;
in fact it is cheaper than I can replace the goods,
but I must have cash at the price invariably.
Another Lot of Fine Dress Goods.
Of all the nice Dress Goods that I have ever
handled, my stock of German faced Henrietta
Finished Dress Goods beats them all. They
are 36 inches wide, and twenty-five cents per
yard is the price that I am selling them, and
they are certainly the cheapest and best goods
1 ever handled.
My Laces and Embroideries range from
2 cents per yard up and they must go.

I have just received a large lot of the celebrated
NEW HOME SEWING MACHINES
which are undoubtedly the best machines on

A first-class Traveling Bag can be obtained
from me at a bargain.
In fact I handle everything, and you can get
anything you want from a toilet pin to the
finest silk dress under one and the same roof.
MY GROCERY DEPARTMENT
Is filled to overflowing with choice and seasonable
Groceries, which are always sold at the
very lowest possible prices, and I am always
pleased to wait on my friends in this line.
FERTILIZERS.
I am handling John Merryman's Guano this
year. I have had the agency for these goods
for the past fifteen years and I have heard no
complaint. They are high goods and I will
be pleased to quote prices. Iam also handling
the Ashley Acid.

is seasonable and the price given is the lowest.
Our growing business is a marvel of success. *
Why is such the case? Is it because we are ^
more popular than our brother merchants? '
c
No, friends, it is because we reduced the price
of Dry Goods and introduced a serviceable and
practicable, and beneficial CASH SYSTEM
which others have tried to imitate, but all to (
no purpose. We price our goods in these col- 1

sell our goods as low as they can possibly be (
sold regardless of what they are worth, or at j
what price they are usually sold.

We want you to consider how our goods are

CURE YOUR COUGH.
/ROUGHS and colds are prevalent and are the *
source of great annoyance. If they are
iIIowpH tn rim thoir rnnrsfi. much inconven
ience and seriously impaired health is often
the result. The ordinary cold can almost invariably
be cured by one or two doses of the
proper kind of medicine. This we have, and
we will be pleased to have it tried. You can
get a sample bottle for ten cents, and after you
ire convinced of its merits, you can get a larger
bottle, containing more than three times the
quantity, for twenty-five cents. After a trial,
we have no doubt but that you will realize the
wisdom of keeping this medicine on hand.
We have absolute control of a cough medicine
that is superior to any remedy that has ever
been placed in this market.
Patent and Proprietary Medicines.
Whenever you see a patent or proprietary
medicine advertised in a newspaper or elsewhere,
and think you would like to try it, just
call on us and wo will endeavor to furnish you
with the desired-varticlo.^iVo try to keep on
hand all medicines that have any real merit,
and never knowingly offer for sale a worthless
nostrum. Sometimes you see a remedy advertised
"sold only by so and so." If the remedy
is a valuable one, we generally manage to
get it in stock. The manufacturer may refuse
to sell to any one but his agent, but we get the
medicine all the same, and sell it at the manufacturer's
price. We have on hand a long list
of patent and proprietary medicines, too numerous
to be mentioned in this space. Among
them are specific remedies for nearly every ailment
to which to flesh is heir. If you will
only describe the trouble, we will furnish the
medicine for its cure or relief. It is frequently
the case that you can get relief from a valuable
patent medicine, even when a regular physician
is unable to do anything for you.
WHITE LEAD.
We have been advertising the Phoenix Brand
of White Lead quite extensively recently, and
the centre shots that have been made in our
statements are beginning to tell. Although
white lead is a staple article of merchandise
whose principal recommendation is its indispensability
in securing the best results, in
view of existing notions that have been worked
up within the past few years with regard to less
valuable substitutes, we have deemed it advisable,
from time to time, to put in a few licks in
its behalf straight from the shoulder. This is
the only apology for advertising the merits of a
paint that stands among paints like unalloyed
gold stands among the metals.
We have just perfected arrangements by
which we can pr' it the houses of responsible
parties with no inconyenience to the owners.
We will furnish the material, the painters and
do the work, and the bill may be paid next
fall if it does not suit to pay it now.

& Miller's celebrated Blue Tag Tobacco. We

graves with Monuments and Tombstones.
This is our last rite and privilege and we should
be mindful of our friends and relatives who
have crossed the River of Deafh and not allow
their graves to go unmarked and uncared for
any longer! Respectfully.
