McCONXELLSVILLK MATTERS. Condition of tho Crops?The Average the Same a> Last Year?No AVestern Corn f??r Sale?Personal?Horse Killed by Lightning. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. McConnellsville, June 19.?Crops are needing work badly. On account of continued rains for the past three weeks, verv little has been done and we are badly in the grass. We had another heavy rain yesterday and last night, and the ground is terribly washed. Harvest is nearly over and will turn oul better than was expected some time ago. Corn is fine on upland. The acreage is as great as last year, and if we have favorable seasons for the next five or six weeks, will make fully as much. There has not been a bushel of corn shipped here this year, and there is now plenty for sale. ''"O/M. !o .mnll ntwl of npoumif <lnr>c tinl V.

Miss Alice Sandsing has gone to Arkansas on a visit to relatives. The rain last night was the heaviest we have had for years. Mr. W. N. Ashe, Sr., had a horse killed by lightning during a thunder storm yesterday. I.. SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. For the Safety of Pedestrians. ? The city council of Spartanburg has passed an ordinance making it a misdemeanor to ride bicycles on the sidewalks. To Aniuxe the Tiger. ?

Lieutenant Donaldsan, at present commandant of cadets at the Patrick Military institute, Anderson, is to be transferred to Clerason college. He Would Make a Good One. ? It is stated in some of the papers that Major J. K. Marshall, of Columbia, will probably be appointed chief State constable to look after the enforcement of the dispensary law. The Dispentary ha* a Sign. ? In compliance with the Federal law, the authorities of the State dispensaries at Columbia, have put up a sign over the building. It reads as follows: "State Commissioner, rectfier and wholesale liquor dealer." No ICC conciliation. ? A rumor to the effect that reconciliation had been effected between Irby and Shell, caused something of a sensation among the politicians last week. The interest in the matter, however, was short lived, as the report was soon denied. Death of a Professor. ? Dr. W. J. Alexander, formerly a professor in the South Carolina university, died at his home in Darlington last "Wednesday night. His connection with the South Carolina university, it will be remembered, terminated on account of his Unitarian views. He Will Honor the Degree. ? Professor J. W. Flynn, of the South Carolina college, has received notice that the honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity has been conferred upon him by Central University, the State insitution of Kentucky. This is tr well deserved honor and Dr. Flynn's many friends will hear of it with pleasure. Sound* Like a Hoax. ? The Spartanburg Herald is informed that a big liquor house, name and place of business not mentioned, has procured two car loads of pint flasks, made in the same moulds used for the State dispensary, and will fill them with liquor for the South Carolina trade. Picnic at Wylie's Mill. ? The several Alliances of Chester and " York county have decided to have a big picnic at Wylie's mill, Chester county, July 20. Senator Irby, Congressman Talbert, Hon.

Ann of tho n/iitor* nf The News O tiw U1 J VUt o vuv v* V?v ? and Courier, has been electeed to the chair of English Literature in Trinity College, in North Carolina, and has accepted the position. Mr. Weber is a son of the Rev. Dr. S. A. Wdber, of Yorkville. Murphy will 1m> District Attorney. ? The president, on last Monday, settled the district attorneyship race in this State, by the appointment of W. Perry Murphy, of Colleton county, and late Conservative candidate for attorney general of South Carolina. The appointment seems to be generally credited to the influence of Congressman Brawley. Will Obey the Law. ? The Southern Express company has for some time past been solicited to make a test of the constitiitionality of that portion of the dispensary law which forbids the bringing of other than dispensary liquors into the State. After due consideration of the matter, the express company is reported to have decided to fully obey the law, and to assist the authorities in carrying out its provisions. The State Alliance. ? Anderson Intellligencer : The annual meeting of the State Alliance will be held in Walhalla on the fourth Monday in July. The Alliance will meet the first day at Fort Hill.

An interesting programme will be arranged for that day, and among other things there will be an address by Prof. J. S. Newman, of Clemson college. The next day the Alliance will go on to Walhalla and will be in session there two or three days perhaps. WOKLD'S* FAIR NOTES. Will Open on Sunday*. ? The United States court of appeals, in session at Chicago, has rendered a decision unanimously sustaining the board of directors of the World's Fair in their decision to keep open the gates on Sundays. There will be more litigation on the subject, but it is generally believed that the matter is settled. Keduetion of Kate*. ? As yet there has been no appreciable reduction in the railroad rates to the World's Fair, but it is likely that a big break will take place on nearly all of the more important lines, on or about the middle of July. It Confer* the (lift of (Jali. ? The famous blarney stone, which for centuries has occupied a place in the walls of Blarney Castle, in Ireland, is now at the World's Fair. There is a superstition, or at least a tradition, among the Irish, that this stone confers upon those who kiss it, an irresistibly persuasive tongue. Keport Denied. ? The report that rich laces belonging to the queen of Italy were stolen while 011 the way to the World's Fair, is denied by officials interested. Whether the first report, or the denial is correct, it is difficult to arrive at. BLACKSBl KG NOTES. The surveys for the establishment of the nci<l works at-this place will soon be completed and the building will be commenced in the near future. Machinery is now being placed in the mica mills here and everything is being put in rediness to commence work at a very early day. These are substantial enterprises and as such will greatly develop not only our own town but the surrounding country. The establishment of a dispensary at this place is a question yet unsettled. There is, beyond a doubt, a majority of the freeholders on the petition opposing the dispensary, but, unfortunately, some have signed both petitions. What the outcome will be under the recent opinion of the attorney general in such matters is hard to say. The Three ("s railroad company is preparing for a mammoth Sunday school excursion. They propose, on the BOth of June, to run a Sunday school excursion train from Camden to Shelby, and one from Marion, N. t\, to Shelby. Colonel Tripp, the ever en ! terprising superintendent of the Three ("s ; road, ha3 offered u premium of $2"> to the 'jSunday school that sells the greatest num her of tickets. Shelby is making preparations to entertain the schools.?Correspondence of the Greenville News. Tom Dixon Attacks the Church.? Kev. Tom Dickson, the sensational New York preacher, who has recently been try. ing to rub it into Tammany Hall, has turned his attention to the church. The subject of ' his last Sunday's sermon was "The Church in the City." J "The sad fact," he said, "is forcing itself I 011 the hearts of many who love the Lord ! that thousands of the churches in our cen-1 tres of life are today practically dead. Many of them have become mere social i clubs or cliques, and others are apostles of > the gospel of geography?they believe in moving/ ; "We are convinced of their practical death from the fact that they are so still. There is no motion, movement, stir about them. They never have a sensation. In proportion as people are dead, they are free from sensation. Christ was a sensationalist; He spoke in a sensational way on sensational themes. These churches need a sensation to do them good; any sort of sensation?for a change. "They show that they are dead by the fact that they have no ear to hear, no heart to , pity, no arm to save the struggling, suffering thousands who surge about their doors. Fashion and pride and wealth have corrupted them.. "We know that many of our churches are dead, because they have dead preachers. There are fewer Methodists in this city today than there were twenty years ago, fewer Baptists than twenty years ago, though in that time the city has practically doubled its population. The brethren have been busy keeping the faith. They have spent their energy in silencing men who do not follow after their sect, and manufacturing preachers who wear the collar of certain creeds. When the victim begins to grow, the collar being made of immovable material, he is of necessity choked to death. You can go by some of the churches today and hear the preachers wheeze." Torn to Piecw. ? A colored man named Josher Bell was knocked down and run over by .a.train of cars in the vicinity of Florence last Thursday night. He was literally torn to pieces, but at last account was still alive. THE THERMOMETER'S RECORD For the Week Ending Jane 20.?Observations by Mr. J. R. Schorb.

Recently I had occasion to try it in another case. A man living on my placo had an attack similar to my own. Ho sent for a physician, but the disease did not yield to his treatment. I took the liberty of giving Anti-Ferment and it cured him. I consider it the best medicine for all bowel troubles I ever used. We are never without a bottle in the house. Respectfully, W. J. Davis.

Subsequent information proves that the report | wan not correct. I f there was a trust it still exists, j The cold facts in regard to the matter are about as 1 follows: There are quite a number of m an fact u| rorsin the country who have been making frantic i efforts to cause expert wheelmen to believe that | their particular makes were equal in every respect to any machine on the market and worth as much money, and so sanguine were they of success, that they continued to manufacture large numbers of wheels and howl about enormous sales, etc., but experts wouldn't catch on, and in order to save themselves, they reduced their prices to where they should have been at the start, as compared to the genuine high grade wheel, and spread the report that the "trust" had collapsed. The price on machines that are recognized by experts as high grade bicycles is exactly what it was at the beginning of the season. The price of the MONARCH, the recognized kiugol bicycles, lias not been reduced. There is no necessity for reduction, because it is on top. Its popularity with experts is increasing every day. Of course there are reasons for this and we will tell them to you, and you can't help but see that they are good ones, Here they are? Because it is the lightest running wheel on the market by at least 33 per cent. Because it is scientifically constructed. Because It possesses desirable feat ires not shared by any other make. Because its patent ball holder and dust protector is used exclusively on the Monarch. Because Monarch sprockots arc detachable and secured by patented device. Because only the very finest material is used throughout. Because the workmanship is absolutely the best. Because people who know Bikes buy Monarchy. The list could bo extended but wo have given enough. Wo would he pleased to order a Monarch for you. If you want any particular style o saddle or tiro you can get what you want on a Monarch.

IT is a well known fact that we never, under any circumstances, buy or sell inferior goods of any description in order to make sales or meet competition. We have learned by long experince that there is a ? large class of people who want nothing but the best that the market affords when it comes to eatables, and we make it a point to supply the demands of this class of trade. Our motto has always been and still remains. "The ton in quality and the bottom in prices," ami we never allow ourselves to he excelled by anybody when the whole of the j motto is taken into consideration. A few days ago we heard of a lady who knows | wliat jmre, lirst-elass groceries are. saying to a j neighbor who was complaining of her inability to buy lirst class Groceries, that the trouble was j that she did not buy her goods at the right place. "Why" said she "I can tell good goods when I see them"bcing brought in the gate there." ""Well, I can't," said the complaining neighbor, "and I don't see how you can. Tell me, please." "It is easy enough," said the other. "If I see KIDDLE A CARROLL'S man Coot bringing the goods in the gate I KNOW they are ull right. If you want to always be sure of getting first-class groceries of any kind, you should buy from them. They never disappoint." The lady simply endorsed our claim to sell nothing but the very best, and we arc sure that if thcreare any who have not tried us and will give us a trial, they will say that she know exactly what she was talking about. Coot is always anxious and Charley is always willing to deliver goods anywhere in town free of charge and to deliver them promptly. RIDDLE A CARROLL. T. BAXTER McClIE ICE BY THE CAR LOAD!
