? Spartanburg correspondence of Greenville News, of Thursday, says: The colored > men called a mass meeting in the court house this morning to consider the tragedy . of Saturday night. C. C. Bomar was called to the chair. The Rev. C. C. Scott pre- j sented a preamble and resolutions. In the . former, he spoke of the murder and arrest, i and in his resolutions he showed how a white man had beeu cut down without the slightest provocation, by one of their color. I Thanks were offered to the men who had the murderer in their power, yet who refrained from lynching him, although the invalid widow and children cried to them for vengeance. The author of the resolutions made an earnest appeal to the men of all colors, all over the State, to do away with all lynching and to put down crime that indicated such a course. The Rev. T. T. B. Reid, of the A. M F church, made an earnest appeal to his race not to caFry concealed weapons. About fifty colored men were present. Only those working near the court house could get off to attend. The meeting was conceived in the right spirit, the speeches were all good, and it will have a good effect upon our colored population. A collection was taken up for the widow and children of Bill Atkins. It was a pathetic sight to see those colored day laborers giving from their small earnings to aid an unfortunate while family.

July 14, 18H2, after a long illness, Miss MARY I N. SHAW, aged 44 years 2 months and 28 days. ! She was in good faith and believed she whs going j to live with Christ. She was a good woman and ; a much loved sister. MARY FRANCES KIDDLE, eldest child of Robert B. Riddle and Hannah E. Riddle, was born at Zeno, S. C., November 11th, 1K>G, and died July ltith, 1KJI2. The love of God our Heavenly Father was revealed in tenderest lines to the grief-stricken family in the expressions which fell from j their darling's lips during the moments of life left her after the sad and fatal accident. Surely the parental heart, bleeding over the dying child, could ask for no more precious legacy than the utterances of her conscious moments. Just after she was hurt and brought to 1 the house, she was so afraid that some one might be blamed for the accident, that she repeated over and over: "There is nobody to blame; there is nobody to blame." Seeingthedistressof i her grandpa as he bent over her, she said: "Kiss ] mo, grandpa; I am liettcr." 'men ?i>iamma will I die? The heart-broken mother replied, "Yes, darling, I think you will." Not in the least disturbed by the answer, she sweetly replied, "Then let me pray," and for a fow moments the beloved voice breathed forth an earnest prayer for Divine help. A moment's pause, and then the assurance "God will save me. I know He will save me, because I trust Him. I know He will save me because 1 prayed to Him." The dear child seemed more anxious to comfort the sorrowing ones around her than to dwell on her own sufferings. When her pastor came she was unconscious, but amid the moans of pnin, over and over would be heard the prayers: "God have mercy; I, come Jesus and come quick." After four hours j of mortal agony, she sweetly fell asleep in Jesus. I God warns us of tire uncertainty of life. One i moment in sweet childish glee and gracefulness i she is playing with her little brother?the next j she is broken, mangled, hurt unto death. He j sends us through this precious child a lesson of beautiful Christian unselfishness and the incalculable value of early training in the knowledge of God and ofl'hrist. She thought of others; not of herself. She knew the value of prayer, and that efficacious prayer came only from the trusting or believing heart. She was acquainted with the love of God and the sympathy of Christ, and rested her soul in that sure haven. It was; a little child that died-; it was a great soul that j passed into glory. Blessed be God who leaves us the memory of, her graceful childhood, the comforting lessons; of her last hour, and the assured hope of her j eternal blessedness. "We sorrow not even as others which have j no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him."?I Thessalonians iv, 13,14.

We sell our Tea for 75 cents a pound, while others sell an article not so good at from ?1 to $1.25. A trial by every housekeeper is asked for. FOR 50 CENTS.

Last week we received a large stock of DRUGS and FRESH PATENT MEDICINES,'together with a splendid stock of the latest discoveries in prescription goods, which are the very purest and are used by all physicians who keep up with the times. . PRESCRIPTIONS. Prescriptions at MAY A* MAY'S drug store are tilled with an aeeuraey which will ensure the effect intended to be produced by the prescribing physicians. When a prescription conies to us and we do not have the ingredient, we send out and get it. If it cannot be procured in town, we telegraph for it. Under no circumstances do we use substitutes. When medicines bought at our prescription counter fail to have the desired effect it is no fault of ours. PRICE, QUALITY AND ACCURACY Are three things that we guarantee, which to you, even the price is of the least consideration. Poor, inferior medicines are dear at any price. "Down-weight," in medicines arre much more against the customer than accuracy. These are 1 winters worthy of consideration. The price s of least importance to the sick. MORPHINE AND OPIUM Are two things that we can furnish to physicians at the very lowest prices. Also we handle large quantities of QUININE, and considering the quality first, we can down competitors on every hand. Call and see MAY A MAY when you need either of the above named articles. HORSE AND CATTLE POWDERS. Our Horse and Cattle Powders have been in popular demand since the first advertisement appeared in this paper, and properly enough it should have been. Customers who bought it at first and saw its good effects have made a second and third purchase Ours has had such a great sale that other dealers have attempted to introduce their powders, but failed. We have only a small number of packages on hand now. and owing to the lateness of the season we will . " not juhkc uuouier orucr iur imuuuui/ >< ? months, and we advise you to call early and get you a supply. Besides the powders that we have been selling all spring, at 2o cents or 3 packages for 50 cents, we have them at 15 cents per package, or 2 packages for '25 cents. PATENT MEDICINES.

ACT TODAY, Tomorrow May be Too Late; at Least That Has Been the Experience of Others. 0 THERE are hundreds, yes, thousands of men all over this country who thoroughly realize that no plan has yet been devised by which they can more easily and surely provide for those <ior>nnr?ont unon them in case they are taken away by death, than a life insurance policy in a first class company. They all expect to attend to the matter some day?next fall, next year, when their financial condition is such that they can supply all their imaginary wants and have a sufficient surplus to carry a policy. Thousands go down to the grave every year without attending to the matter, and leave their dear ones penniless and to depend either on charity or to eke out an existence as best they can. Is the picture familiar? Is it overdrawn? Read the following extract from The Insurance Post, of London, England, and learn what one who speaks from hitter experience has to say on the subject: I am looked upon as a happy man. The world says: "There is Bright; he's a lucky dog. What a lovely wife he has and what fine children! If you want to see a charming home, look in at Bright's." I was a happy man; I used to fancy myself one of the most fortunate fellows alive. I felt proud of the way I had got along; sometimes I used to think I surely must have been born under a lucky star; I seemed to prosper in everything. When I began in the store I was the Junior clerk, but I worked up; promotions never seemed to . fall in anybody's way faster than they did in mine. Everybody said when I married: "Bright's a lucky aog." My wife was the belle of the city; it would have gladdened the hearts of fifty fellows whom I might name to have won nor if they could, but her love was reserved for me. Then the children?well, well, a father's praises are usually accepted with grains of allowance; T n-nn't n?v anvthino' that miflrht seem to be mere parental rapture. Now, I've mentioned the reason why the world thinks me a happy man. Perhaps you think the world is right i My God! I wish it was. The other day an old friend, a school chum, called on meat the store: we got to talking about life insurance. I don't know how many life insurance men have tried to induce me to insure my life; I always put them off. Frankly. I never thought seriously about needing life insurance?never thought I needed it now. I remember that I said to myself, "After awhile." I knew I hadn't saved any money, but then I would. Once an agent tried to tell me it was my duty towards my wife and children to in* sure ; I thought him impertinent. He made me angry: I tola him I knew my own business. My friend urged me to take a policy, as ho had lately engaged in the lifo insurance business. Finally, I said I would, thinking it a favor to him; it was easier to say yes than no. ' I went to be examined by the medical examiner. Two or three days later I was asked to call again. I was examined a second time. I thought the proceedings a bore, and l>egan to wish I nad not signed the application. A week after my friend came into the store"; I asked him about my insurance, and he said the company had rejected the application. He didn't say it quite as direct as this, but in a roundabout hesitating way. He tried to lie gentle in imparting tne information. At last I came to understand that I was uninsurable. "Kidney disease?incurable," the examiner said. I consulted an eminent physician ; lie confirmed it?quietly told me I might live two years. Two years!?two years in wnicu to prepare to die! I dare not tell my wife; it would be well enough by-and-by.- Like a condemned felon, I count the days and hours?days and hours in which to breathe silent farewell to those I love. What can I do in two years?such years? What provision can I make for them ? I said I never thought seriously about life insurance. I never did until now, when it is too late. "Uninsurable !" rings in my ears. Never did a leper shudder more at those words descriptive of his fearful doom, "Unclean! unclean!" than I do as the voice in my ear says, "Uninsurable!" It says more than that. It tells md of the cruelty of my procrastination; it tells me that I am dead, that my dear wife and children are destitute. MyGoa! it is hard to bear. Everything that made me happy before makes me wretched now. The agony of the thought of parting from my family, terrible as it is, is as nothing to the certain knowledge that I shall leave them comparatively poor. I have figured it all out; after paying my funeral expenses there will lie barely enough left to supply them with the necessaries i of life for six months. * * ? My friends have Iiegun 10 nonce mat nn^iu nan micu ijin:. i lately." * * * I saw a young woman today begging on the street, and with her were two little children, who tugged at her skirt and cried: "Mamma, please take us home; we are so cold and hungry."
