V LETTER FROM CHESTER. Correspondence of the Torkville Enquirer. 1 Chester, October 22.?The citizens of Black9tock have recently been very much ! interested in a rather mysterious matter. Several weeks ago, two or three white 1 men, plainly dressed and bordering, in appearance, on the tramp, landed in town 1 one afternoon, and requested board and 1 lodgings at Mrs. Rosborough's boarding house. Failing to get accommodations 1 there, they went away and finally secur- ( ed quarters at John Peay's house, several miles away. The men spent several days 1 in the neighborhood, dodging about 1 armed with a pick and other digging tools, which they borrowed from a negro i near by. After becoming satisfied, or dissatisfied one, with their experience, the < men departed. A week or two later, ' Messrs. Douglass and Kennedy, the pres- 1 ent proprietors of the land formerly owned by the late R. K. DeBardeleben, received a'letter from Charlotte, signed by a man whose identity, after some inquiry, has not been revealed, the letter stating that the writer had found traces of gold on the DeBardeleben land, and that he would, for a liberal consideration, return and prosecute the search. Mr. Kennedy made a search on the plantation and found where a hole had been dug between two big oak9, the trees apparently having been marked years ago. There is a mystery somewhere about the matter, and some of the good citizens have caught themselves repeating the old ' couplet found in the school histories: 1 "Since the days of Captain Kyd, The Yankees think there's money hid." Dr. Reuben L. Lackey died at Blackstock on the 15th instant, of consumption. . Dr. Lackey came to Blackstock from North 1 Carolina about two years ago. His remains were taken to his former home for interment. The citizens of Cornwell and surrounding community are doing a good thing in erecting a large school-house in their ' village. The olaacademy, Aurora, which ; stood a mile or more west of Cornwell, has been torn down and will be used in part in the erection of the new building, which , is nn land civen for the purpose by Dr. W. J. L. Cornwell. The* frame of the ] house is up and it will be ready for occupation before many months. The eleventh annual exhibition of the Chester Fair association opened to-day with a large number of exhibits, the most of which were placed in position yester- ( day. The weather, up to this time, is ; fine, and every body is taking an interest in making the exhibition a grand success. The associated counties are represented by , exhibitors, while our town merchants are making liberal and attractive displays. The field crop, live stock and art departments promise to be full and interesting. ; Music is furnished by the Newton (N. C.) ' band. | Court convened yesterday with the venerable Judge Pressley on the bench. After the usual routine of organization, the case of James Hardwicke charged I with assault and battery on the person of II. C. Brawley, was called and tried, the trial ending in a verdict of acquittal. The next case was also one of assault and battery, against Dr. C. L. Clawson for an assaulton J. M. Fudge. This case was tried 1 once before and resulted in a mistrial, after thejury had hung an entire day. Yesterday's verdict was one of acquittal. The 3 third and last case called was also an assault kottavi. nooa onrl lilrft in t.hft t.Wft Dfe ttuu i/aviuj wwvj (?uv* ^ t ceding ones, the participants were both white men. Newton Buchanan was the defendant, and Joseph A. Walker the prosecuting witness. This cause had been on hands for a long time and the mer- . ciful jury brought in, according to the " custom of the day, a verdict of not guilty. ' ALLIANCE TOPICS. \ ? In Newberry, on Thursday, 600 bales ] were offered, about half of it belonging to r members of- the alliance. They did not effect a sale until late in the afternoon, J when they closed out at 9.40. ? Pickens Sentinel: The business men of the alliance met in the court house last Tuesday to consider the cotton question. : They have sent out orders to the sub-alliances not to sell any cotton until the first ofNovember. ? There are now twenty-four sub-allian- i ces in Lancaster county. Five or six alliances in the lower part of the county 1 propose to establish a warehouse near Beckham, though the exact point is not j yet decided upon. < ? Four hnndred and twenty-eight bales 1 were offered at Prosperity, Newberry ] county, on Wednesday, by members of the J alliance. Failing to obtain the price want- t ed, they hauled the most of it home. Five hundred bales were on the square at one time. Sales 1G0 bales; offering at 9 J to 9f. 5 ? The Cheraw correspondent ofthe News ' and Courier says: Through September j our receipts of cotton at this market were much larger than during the same month ; last year. That was, however, when the < price was at its highest; but now that the < price has gone down a little our farmers f are holdiqg back. The alliance, too, is waiting on their cotton bagging, which ! has not yet come. ? When the barn of the experimental station near Spartanburg was burned last Thursday, cotton covering scored a victory over jute. The Spartanburg correspondent of the News and Courier says that a bale of cotton covered with cotton stood the test better than the jute covered bales. While it was in as close proximity to the i fire as any of them, the bagging did not < burn. The jute was burned on several l bales. ? Greenville News: "The farmers in the vicinity of Donald's, on the Columbia i and Greenville railroad, clubbed together i last Thursday and broght in four hundred i ho lea nf enttnn and held the entire Int. at 9.75. The price asked was too high for ; the buyers, and the farmers piled their cot- ] ton up in a vacant lot and hired a man to watch it. No move had been made by j either the buyers or the owners up to late ( Thursday afternoon, and the merchants are ( perplexed." , ? TheBonham,Texas,News, says: "Last ] spring, Grove Hill alliance, No. 852, Fan- , nin county, passed a resolution that each . member thereof would give a bushel of corn to the member raising the greatest j (quantity of corn on an acre of ground. The . other day the contest was settled and C. J. Graves secured the premium. He gathered one hundred and nineteen bushels and thirty-two pounds of corn from an acre of 1 ground. The alliance numbers fifty; so 1 his premium will make one hundred and 1 sixty-nine bushels and thirty-two pounds ( of corn secured to him by the cultivation of one acre." < ? An Atlanta special dispatch of last 1 Saturday, to the Augusta Chronicle, says: ( The sub-alliance No. 1852, of Fulton coun- > ty (Ga.) has passed resolutions to boycott i those members of the legislature who voted against the Olive bill. One page of the alliance minutes has been set apart for the names of the refractory members, and the nrcanization has nlede-ed itself never : to support them for office of any kind, j Those who were absent when the bill was \ voted on are to be treated in the same j manner. The "Olive bill," which was de- . feated in the Georgia legislature on Fri- 1 day, was designed to abridge the power of 1 railroads and railroad combinations in that State. ? A correspondent of thr Greenville 1 News writing from Greer's, Greenville county, says that on Wednesday 400 bales ] were brought to that place and offered , to buyers on different grades. The highest i average bid was 9.80, which, says the I correspondent, "was promptly declined ( by the cotton committee, and a regular j stampede of wagons ensued, moving in : every direction until 200 to 200 bales had rolled out of town to be held for ten cent9. j After the adjournment 100 to 150 bales ! were sold at 9.65 to9i{, or dumped on the old field. Thus ended the greatest cotton day Greer's has ever witnessed in its history, and it is but just to say never was ! there greater confusion and dissatisfaction j to both buyer and seller." , ? The Clear Water Farmers' alliance, of ; Aiken county, at a recent meeting, passed : the following: "We, as members of the I Clear Water Farmers' alliance, believe j there will be an ample supply ofcotton bag- j ( ging to cover the present cotton crop; we s further believe that any one using jute i < bagging is an enemy to our cause; ] therefore, be it resolved, That we will ex- " elude from this alliance any member who j uses jute bagging; and as members of this ! alliance we condemn in the strongest [ , terms any merchant or factor who will re- I cover cotton with jute, and will not patron-1 : ize the same." It is also said that all the j > alliauces in Aiken county, have adopted i I resolutions to the effect that they will not "patronize any merchant who takes the j cotton bagging off the bales and substi- i tutes the jute bagging." ? On the 15th instant, 563 bales of cotton 1 came into Spartanburg, mostly alliance I; staple. More than 300 bales were sold, i' mostly to the Clifton company, and 263! j were stored. The prices averaged 9.90,1 the best cotton bringing 10. On Wednesday there was much negotiation between the alliance men and the buyers over the stored bales. The alliance was not satis- p tied with the offers made and charged a combination against it. The members finally met and resolved, in view of "in- 0i dications that there is a deliberate attempt h among the cotton buyers and cotton mills 0] to cripple our order and defeat our co-operation for grading and selling our own cotton," that "we take our cotton off this market, and sell it in some other market, Ci and recommend that members of the alii- si ance hereafter, as far as possible, keep ^ their cotton away from the Spartanburg p market." The buyers deny any combina- ti, tion, and say on the contrary that they s< are invariably competitors among them- selves. It is thought the difficulty will be settled to the satisfaction of both sides. b; Will the Internal Revenue be Re- r< pealed ??A Washington dispatch to the re New York Herald says: gi The Washington Press, the only Repub- Ss lican paper now printed here, says that s( Mr. Blaine is reported to have said to a friend that the first thing the Republicans la in Congress would undertake at the com- bi ing session would be the passage of a tariff b; bill. S This friend, in the course of a conversation with the secretary of state, asked if C? there was a likelihood of the Republicans b; ? /vlAAflAn lour uritK Q triPUT I nt passing a r eucioi cicvuvu ...... ? ?,. ... of stopping the frauds on the ballot and tl suppression of the negro vote in the South, at Mr. Blaine said the tariff question ought to receive attention first; that it had been iE the issue of the late campaign, and there m was no reason why the Republicans should n< allow themselves now to be turned aside w from dealing with it. The passage of a js Federal election law could wait. This is specially significant, taken in p connection with the remark the president tt is quoted as making to a senator who was s< complaining of the slowness in removing d< Democratic internal revenue officers in al bis State. fa "Well," the president said, "there's no ^ use bothering about them ; they will be legislated out of office this winter." Ths most interesting feature of this prog- . nostication is that it points very clearly to antagonism by the administration of rl Mr. Reed's aspirations to the speakership. Mr. Reed is from Mr. Blaine's State, but ai they are not friends, and it has always been regarded as good politics to have the St speaker of the house in sympathy with S( the administration when possible. rf Revenue legislation is not the only matter that will occupy the time of congress, oi There are some international questions in which may be proposed, and it would be a' more agreeable to Mr. Blaine to have a v; speaker with whom he could talk over the situation from time to time. Having had experience through three congresses as ? speaker, he thinks he knows what would " be most advantageous to the administra- ?( tion, now that he sits at the right of the ft president in cabinet sessions. , e{ ? Dr. Thos. T. Robertson, a prominent ~ physician and highly respected citizen of Winnsboro, died at his home in that town, on the loth instant, aged 74 years. ir THE THERMOMETER'S RECORD ?j S< Forthe Week Ending October 22?Observa- ? tions by Mr. J.

Mrs. Alexander Vaughn, wife of one of the most prominent and extensively known mer- -* ihants of Prescott, Ark., writes the following J letter, under date of April 22, 1889: th "I owe the preservation of my life, under w Providence, to Swift's Specific, (S. S. S.). For ^ four years my health was wretched, ruined? r my life a life of constant pain and misery and fa torture. Food soured on my stomach, and sc what I ate to-day I would vomit to-morrow. aT My sleep at night was broken with the most horrible visions in dreams, so much so, that ? [ could not bear to be left alone; chronic diarrhcea; a painful cough that threatened me with ? jonsumption ; my feet and ankles were twisted out of all proportion, and my limbs swelled J( more or less. I could not walk except on a level floor, and then with difficulty, and for a ^ while could not get in or out of bed without I issistance. C The pressure of a finger on my body would leave us impression, ami, 111 snort, x tuougnt x bad dropsy, in addition to my other afllictions.

PROMPT PAYMENT Is Essential to a FirstClass Credit.

These accommodations vere offered in the hope that our customers vould appreciate the spirit in which they were >ffered, and reciprocate the favor promptly. Of course there must be a settling time?no nan can go on and on in this way eternally. :t will bring disaster on supplier and consum>r alike, and cause untold miseries to be vrought in a community. Evory dollar's worth of goods which haye jcen sold on credit and taken from our store, ihould have been paid for by the 15TH of OCTOBER; but some persons have not complied vith their promises. Such should not be the 3ase, for several reasons : First. My plan of doing business for the >ast year has been plainly set forth in these :olumns each week. Second. That we only advertised to sell joods on a credit TO PROMPT PAYING CREDIT CUSTOMERS. Third. That these goods were sold in com>etion with cash prices. Are the abovo reasons not sufficient? We tould recite many others, but wo think that hese are quite all that are necessary, for our lustomers, as a class, are intelligent, and busi less men. and wo bopo that our book-keeper vill have more to do for the next few weeks. OUR CASH SALES during the entire year have been remarkably ;ood, and our cash recepts during our "Week >f Bargains," which has just closed, are much nore than wo dared to expect. Words of iraise for our goods and prices came from the ips of every visitor, and they did not come vith uncertain sound, for it was emphasized vith the jingling of the American dollar. It 8 our cash sales that has contributed largely o paying the current expenses of the business. Remember that our house is full of life and hat we meet anybody's prices. CENTS' FINE CLOTHING.

Plenty of cotton is a good thing to lave, and 'twould be greatly to our gain if the ->riee should reach 121 cents: but the chances ire for lower prices, we think. Our obliga;ions are fast falling due, and we ask those who )we us to lose no time in paying us. Our Fertilizer Notes and Accounts are due iow and must be paid by November 1st. Don't forget this. We have been dealing in the same lines of merchandise for eleven years, and one of our key-notes has been "a well assorted full stock it all seasons," but never before has our stock )f Groceries, Hardware, Crockery, Glass, Willow, Wooden, Tinware, Ac., been as complete is now. We honestly think that it embraces nearer everything in these linos than any other in York. And here's the rub?we will not only protect our patrons in quality and price, but will actually save them money on this score. Don't take these assertions for granted, but make a thorough personal test of them, and we are confident that said investigation will iccruo to your benefit as well as ours. To sow in season is to reap plenteously. Clover and other cultivated grasses, Oats, Ac., diould be sown now. Rye is good for late Winter and Spring pasture. GROCERIES.?We believe in pure Eatables, ind though some people demand cheap goods, we warn you against them. Meatsare cheap. California Hams at lOcents ire lower than we have ever known them.

Our Knife is Drawn for the Battle of Low Prices ! dc ro be ~^7"E are ready! We are leaders?not followers. We are a fixture, and our movements ki are watched with an eager eye. We are followed by few and imitated by none. We have driven many of the old "credit concerns" (*< m into the "cash svstem," with the vain hope that is m they might imitate our method of doing busi- w< ness. This of itself is sufficient evidence al to show that we are "objects of envy" to say nothing of the malice displayed. We are selling goods for a living, and we M th treat our customers the best we know how. eo We do not resort to unfair means to give our goods precedent over our competitors. We ^ quote our prices with reference to the prices aK an paid for our goods, and we have always been m as controllers, introducers and leaders of low m to prices, and thisistho position that we intend to hold. D( Only a few days ago a patron of ours came into the New York Racket Store. He wanted seventeen pairs of Shoes. He asked us if we a* nc would make a special price on seventeen pairs be M of a certain kind of Shoe. We told him to scour m in the market and see if he could get lower prices to than we were prepared to offer. He came back an hour later and asked us to wrap the Shoes up and to give the best prices wo could afford ^ 011 them. Of course we did that. We sold the cr ui Shoes, and it might be well to add that we con- ca rl trol' he sale of that Shoe in this market, hav- fo CO ing made an arrangement with a Massachusetts Shoe Factory to take so many pair of Shoes each year with the privilege of increasing our oder.

( Ho! ye sleepers, Rub your peepers, Open wide each eye; Don't be creepers, Bargain reapers, Now's the time to buy. J Right This Way For Bargains.

This statement was "that there were various grades of fancy, as well as staple groceries, and that for the.sake of an increased profit, some dealers bought the inferior article and sold them at the same price at which the best grades were sold; and at the same time we made the statement that never, under any circumstances, did we buy or offer for sale any but the best goods obtainable." We now repeat the statement. We now have in stock a complete line of the most popular Canned goods and also a fine stock of Fresh Fancy Groceries.
