Sunday morning seemed threatening at first, but long before the sun had compassed a fourth part of his day's journey, the few clouds that overcast the sky were scattered and from that time on the day was perfect. The morning congregations were all large, and at the Methodist and the Episcopal churches the ministers spoke from behind ramparts of geraniums, with tall callas reachf, mg'hlgh for standards. At night several of the congregations joined in a union temperance sermon at the Baptist church, and listened to a strong and earnest serrtfotfjon tl^t^utyfecttfrom the Rev. R. W. The Lee Light Infantry have at last succeeded in getting the requited number of men for their New York trip, and are busy drilling every day in order to get themuftivps in first class shaDe. Quarters have already been secured for the men at the Colonnade Hotel, and each and every one of them is looking forward to a red letter week. The company will leave here by the Richmond and Danville route on Friday afternoon and expects to he away seven or eight days. Newton Buchanan was arrested hero on Friday on a warrant issued for him on account of a cutting scrape that occurred here in 1884, and in which he played a leading part. Buchanan was lodged in jail to await his trial at the next term of court. Judge Hudson paid Chester and his Chester relatives a short visit during the early part of last week. Mr. Robert Neely left for New York on . last Wednesday to have a surgical operation performed on his right cheek. This is not the first time that Mr. Neely has been North for a like purpose, the trouble on his face being of such a character as to require a repetition of the operation. The town council decided last week to make a long needed improvement by removing a part of the front of one of the old houses down below, Hafnor's store. This improvement will cost the council about $23o, but will add a great deal both to the looks and convenience of that part of town." The annual meeting of the Chester Bible society will be held at the Presbyterian church next Sunday night. Re'fc T. H. Law will be here thatdayi and will, fill the Presbyterian pulpit morning and night. Mr. John B. Dixon and Miss Minnie Dye, daughter1'of Mr.' RosS; Dyfe, were married at Rossville on Thursday. The Chester Cornet band made their first blow to the public on the square near the post office last Friday afternoon. The music was good and was complimented by those who heard it. The military company was drilling that same afternoon and guus and horns together made a lively scene. 1 Mr. S. W. Wright will also try for the $1,000 corn premium. The Chester Savings institution has already become quite popular, having received up to this time deposits amounting to over $8,000, Rev. Jno. C. Kilgo recently raised about $100 at Richburg for the Wofford endowment fund. Mr. T. C. Howze, Sr., is at work on a history of East Chester, which, it is said, will soon b& ready for the public.

Lancaster, April 22.?The cotton and corn planting was pushed forward last week with great industry in this county. The soil is becoming a little too dry ; and many are wishing for rain. At this date the promise of an abundant yield of fruit never was more flattering. A fine cotton and corn crop this year would give a boom to this section of country; for we have had light crops for years. Lancaster couuty has organized a teachers' association, with Prof. Laird, of the Franklin Academy, president. Spectators, who witnessed the first meeting in this town, speak in commendation of the association. They say it is well calculated to instruct, as well as edify the teachers, and that it is likely to spur up the teachers, and to createa laudable rivalry among them. There is, in the last few years, a wonderful improvement among the teachers, and especially among those In charge of public schools. This is certainly an enencouraging feature in our public efforts to educate and enlighten the masses, and it will most assuredly work out good results in the near future. The proprietors of the Lancaster Ledger have recently bought and received anew printing press. It will now, in a few * - < At .1 J (Jays, be made to taKo tne place 01 me oiu one. We have two good county papers in this town. The Ledger is leading off in the direction of progress, and the Review is too enterprising to remain,behind. The Rev. A. L. Stough, of the Baptist church, was united in wedlock last week with Miss Mary C. Walker, of Fort Lawn. On their arrival here after the marriage, the good ladies of the Baptist church gave them a warm and cordial reception at the parsonage. The Rev. R. H. Griffith, D. D., was canvassing in thisconnty last week in the interest oTFurman University, at Greenville. The Baptists will keep up their cherished institution and we honor them for doing so. The Methodist church here was modestly but tastefully decorated with flowers and evergreens on yesterday, in recognition of the fact that it was the anniversary of the rising from the tomb of our Saviour. The Methodist and the Episcopal are the only two churches in this place that ever celebrate the event in this way. Miss Lessie Witherspoon, of Yorkville, is here now visiting friends and relatives. Judge Hudson, after finishing court at Spartanburg, on his way homeward, stopSed over here one night with his niece, Irs. Payseur. The decision of the township bond cases by the supreme court seem to have surprised no one her^i We think ft is well for the State, and well for the people and the interestof the townships affected by it, that the bonds Were made valid. The good name of the State has been vindicated; and the townships will only bo required to carry out their contract. Red Rose. The Weather and the Crops.?The report of the signal service at Washington, issued last Saturday, says: The week ending Friday night, April 11). has been warmer than usual-in all districts, except in the South Atlantic and East Gulf, and where the daily temperature was about 3? below mean for the week. The temperature for the season from January 1 to April -0 has been about normal, except plong the South Atlantic and Gulf coasts, where it has been cooler than usual. The season in the last named section has been retarded from two to four days. The rainfall during the week has been largely in excess over the Southern portion of the United States, including the eutire cotton region from Texas to the Atlantic coast. From the bulletin of the previous week it will be seen that rain was much needed in the Southern States, although no permanent injury has yet resulted to the growing crop. The seasonal rainfall continues in excess on the Atlantic coast, south of New York and froin Texas northward to the Missouri Valley. The seasonal deficiency in the rainfall in States of the Mississippi Valley has been generally reduced by recent rains. Over the greater part of the cotton region about 70 per cent, of seasonal rainfall occurred, while in Texas and the extreme eastern portion of the cotton region there has been about 2"> per cent, more rain than usual. ,: i < The weather during the week has been generally favorable for the growing crops in all sections. Crop conditions were improved throughout the cotton regions by abundant rains there, where reports indicate that cotton is nearly all planted. Railroad Work in Tennessee.?The Johnson City Comet of last Saturday, referring to the recent visit there by General Manager R. A. Johnson, says: lie could not say definitely when work ! on the Three C's railroad would commence at Johnson City, as there are still some preliminaries to arrange, but he thinks in another week matters will be so adjusted that the time for breaking dirt in earnest can be announced. When work is begun it will be pushed rapidly to completion. By the decision of the supreme court of South Carolina, validating the bonds issued by several townships in that State in aid of the construction of the road, they will have the use of$o(X),000 that has been in litigation for some time and has therefore embarrassed the company to some extent. $300,000 of this money is to be spent here and $300,000 is to be used on the Au gu9ta division, which will also bo commenced soon. More than GO miles of that division is already graded and an engineer corps is now being formed to make a new survey, or rather to correct the old survey, of the other portion. As the money I matter is settled the principal cause of delay in beginning work here is the water works contracts. Col. Johnson is engaged in the task of adjusting all differences in this and other matters and smoothing the feelings that have been excited- He asks only what he thinks is right. The citv and people seem willing to grant him almost anything he asks if they know that what they give him will remain under his management. Chastising the Mormons.?Infotmation comes from Dale county, Ala., that five Mormon missionaries were severely whipped and driven from the county on the night of the loth instant. These men had been holding meetings among the ignorant classes of the county and had formed a colony to go to Utah. This had been carried on against the judgment of the better class of citizens, but no action to stop it was taken until the last issue of the Ozark Star advised the people to tar and feather the Mormons and drive them away. Monday night some forty of the socalled best citizens of the northern part of the county, without the slightest attempt at disguise, surrounded the house of Gid Irons, a recent convert, who was entertaining five missionaries. Without delay they were brought out, stripped to the waist and tied in a row. Then each of the regulators, with a long switch, struck each of the prisoners a sounding blow. By the time the last blow was given two of the men had fainted and the others were wet with blood. After the whipping, the men's legs were given a coating of tar and feathers, and they were warned to leave instantly or suffer death. Irons was told that if Mormons were found in his house again he too would be whipped. The Mormons have gone to Henry county, but it is certain that if they attempt to hold meetings there they will again be whipped. Their followers in Dale county talk of avenging the whipping; but if anything of that kind is attempted bloodshed will follow. The Gallows.?John H. Swift was hanged at Hartford, Conn., last Thursday. He was convicted of the murder of his wife,who had refused to live with him because of his dissipation. He announced his intention to kill his wife to some of his companions, and then proceeded to do so. Extraordinary efforts have been made to save him. After carrying the case on appeal to the court of last resort, the legislature was appealed to and a resolution making a commutation to life imprisonment passed both houses, but was vetoed by Governor Bulkley, who reprieved Swift for two weeks. The senate passed the resolution over the veto, but th? house sustained the veto. Since then ineffectual efforts have been made to pass a resolution referring the matter to the board of pardons. Sylvester Grubb was hanged at Vincennes, Indiana, last Friday. On the scaffold he was asked if he had anything to say, and responded that he had plenty to say, but declined to open his mouth be cause there were so many reporters present. Grubb's neck was broken, and there was no unusual incidents connected with the execution. Grubb was hanged for the murder of Miss Gertrude Downey, his sweetheart, on September 18 last, at the Gibson county fair. Malichi Allen, a one-armed negro, and James Mills, half Indian and half negro, were hanged at Fort Smith, Arkansas, last Friday. Their necks were broken. Allen was convicted of murdering Shadrack Peters and Silas Love, in the Chickasaw Nation, last July. Mills killed John Windom, a negro, in the Seminole reservation, on December 18, 1887. Mortgage Taxation.?Two years ago the Michigan legislature gaye way to the popular craze for double taxation and enacted that the holders of mortgages should be taxed on their holding as well as the property represented by their loan. The experience of these two years in attempting to enforce the statute has been so costly and unsatisfactory to the State that the house hasjust voted by a large majority to repeal the law. It was found that the holder of the mortgage simply pushed up the rate of interest to cover the tax while the property represented had to bear the double burden. Major Henry Winn, of Shelburne Falls, has been advocating before the present legislature a return by Massachusetts to the old system of taxing both substance and shadow in mortgages, claiming that the rate of interest has not been perceptibly reduced since the change. If he is correct in the claim it simply shows how ineffectual was the attempt to reach the mortgages for taxation and in that case his argument must fall. The Illinois legislature has refused to pass several bills aiming at the taxation of mortgages. LISTS OF LETTERS. me loiiowing is a list 01 the letters remaining in the post office at Yorkville, S.

ONLY ft short whilo ago I raised the warwhoop and wrote words in defence of my business that went whizzing down the line of tho groat army of CREDIT and CAKII buying customers who do their trading in this market. With one accord the people raised their voices and cried out that "my efforts would be appreciated," to which I can boar substantial evidence through my ASH BOOK and on the pages of my LEDGER ! You have all heard of the "great credit bugaboo;" tho gigantic prices that itsqueezes from your pocket-l>ookH, and continually holds your nosos on the ever turning grindstone of poverty and ruin! People, think the matter over and do yourI unluoc tlin illation nf 1 tannin i nrr free tlllnkiDC American citizens; throw off the bondage of PREJUCICE and give your mental faculties a few minutc8ln cool thought! Money in South Carolina is worth 10 per cent, per annum, which no ono will attempt to deuy. Suppose you use money, to buy goods, that you neod to carry on your farm work. Again, T will suppose that you will buy goods for cash at a given per cent., make it much or little, to which add the per cent, of the money borrowed to purchase these goods for cash, to which add tlio two per cents, together and see ifyou havo not had two trnnactionj, on both of which you are loser. With ono transaction at LATIMER'S BAZAAR you could havo accomplished the same thing with much less trouble, provided your credit was first class and your obligations always promptly met. My distinction is only interest on the money for the time my money is used in your affairs, which all will agree is just and equitable. Even after throwing out these suggestions and casual remarks, I WILL SELL GOODS TO ANY ONE AS CHEAP AS THEY CAN BE BOUGHT ANYWHERE UNDER LIKE CIRCUMSTANCES. My cash sales this year have nearly doubled that of any previous year! My cash book reveals this fact in plain figures, which is an undeniable argument that MY PRICES ARE RIGHT! : My Dress-making and Milliner}' departments are going it night.and day, endeaving to supply the Increasing demand.

Booming Trade Last Week i The new york bargain store in now being felt in York couuty. That is, its prices are bringing people from all parts of the county to see if what is said about its goods iH true, and every one that had not bougnt their bills went away well pleased ; those who had purchased their bills before looking at my goods, of course, were not so well satisfied, as they saw many things that they could have purchased for much less money. ALL MY GOODS ARE NEW. No old stock to put oft on you; but all new goods at very low prices. It has been a noted fact ever since I commenced Millinery, that my House was always considered headquarters for all kinds of MILLINERY. Almost every lady who wanted a wedding outfit came to me to get it, and I am happy to say I am now in the lead. I receive all the latest styles from New York just as they come out. I received last week A Lot of the Prettiest Hats That I have had this season, and very cheap. The ladies say much cheaper than anywhere in town. This is almost an every day experience. Your Hats are so much cheaper. Well, that is easily accounted for. I pay cash and get off all the discounts, and then I sell for cash and can and will sell you cheaper for cash than any store can or will sell you on time. Common sense will teach any one that this is true, no matter who says otherwise. 1,000 yards of Barred Muslin at 01 cents; very pretty. 1,000 yards of Prints at3 cents ; just as good as you can buy anywhere for Scents, and when this lot is out I cannot get any more to sell at that price. I have a splendid line of MEDIUM-PRICED DRESS GOODS Cheaper than you will find them. A large line ofWhite Goods, Embroidery and White Robes. Hosiery from 5 cents up. A splendid line of men's and ladies' Shoes. A good Brogan for $1.00. A man's Straw Hat for the tiny sum of 5 cents. A splendid Kid Glove for 73 cents, and a firstclass Kid for 93"cent8. My Bargains are Coming in Weekly Prom New York. My New York House is always on the look out for BARGAINS, and when they divide out I get my share; and we always divide with our friends. Just because we get them cheap wo do not put on the profit of regular goods. We put on 25 per cent, sharp profit, and lot them go. For instance: If an article costs 4 cents we sell for 5; and if it costs 8 cents we sell for 10. That is why MY GOODS ARE SO CHEAP. The Bargain House is Booming very fast, and it will not be long before its light will shine all over this county of ours. Just price my goods and then compare prices with other goods and you will at once See that the Bargain House Leads. 20 plugs of Tobacco for 31.00. The best Tobacco in York for that price. Mrs. T. M.

Ah me! what dead courage; what piles of bleached bones that were once the concentration of all that was great and lofty and true; what aspirating ambitious enterprise and resolution; what genius, integrity and unsullied names have been swept from the tablets of time into oblivion by the CREDIT MONSTER. But times are changing, and the next ten years will see the grandest strides Uncle Sain ha3 ever made. The next era of great national attainments are just beginning, and in the year 1900, the American flag will be the only one that floats over the great American continent? with a hundred stars in place of forty-two?the greatest empire the world has ever soon. We believe there are children living now who will see the "stars and stripes" wave from the Artie to Terra del Fuego ; when all the railroads, all the telegraphs and all the land bolongs to the people. Mile a minute railroadsfare one cent; telegrams one cent a word; postage one ceut. How we would like to live in that day.
