the treasury will be helped wonderfully. Intendant Lowry has stated in public that there are more than 40 blind tigers doing business in the town. He did not say that "he bad been informed" thr.t there were 40; but said they were here. It is the town council's sworn duty to do all in its power to exterminate blind tigers. It has all the law that could possibly be required. It is backed by the Christian people of the town. Now what is to prevent the council from raisiug from from $300 to $500 in the next two months from this source alone, or getting lots of work done on the streets without cost to the taxpayers ? The third source of revenue to which I would call the attention of the council, is to levy a tax of from $10 to $25 a year on the loafers within our borders. They are a menace and nuisance, and should 1 ~ ^ ti'Aflr nr Hrivfln I ue uuuer umuc in w nv?i> v. v.. . out of the town. They lounge about the streets and other public places from year's end to year's end, have no visible means of support, and always refuse to perform labor of any kind when they are offered a job. Their support costs those who work not less than three times as much as is expended on the dogs. These three points are submitted for the consideration of the council, and I defy it to show wherein there is a defect i n my plan, or to show that the whole town will not be benefitted by its adoption. Tax-Payer. BLACKSBURG BUDGET. I test Rain of the Fall?Original Package Shop Declared a Nuisance?Marriage of 1 Miss Davie*?Death of Mr. Jullau Ross. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Blacksburo, November 2.?The best rain we have had this fall, fell yesterday, , and the ground is more thoroughly wet than it has been for several months. It is clear and frosty this morning. Cotton picking is nearly finished, and 1 our farmers are sowing wheat, and more ! of it than usual, as they realize the fact that they must try to raise something more profitable than 5 cents cotton. The original package store, which was opened here about a month ago by ' Messrs. J. S. Gibson and J. L. Hallman, 1 was closed yesterday by our town council ' upon the ground that the "business is a ' nuisance and misdemeanor against the security, welfare and good government of ' our town," and the penalty attached for ' a continuance of the same is a tine of not 1 less than $25 or imprisonment for not less j than 30 days. The O. P. men say that ' ??,? 1 mey uo nut ueueve tuc luku vuuuv... u?> the power to prevent them from carrying 1 on the business, and will take the case to the higher courts. 1 There was a quiet, but very pretty, 1 wedding at the residence of Mr. John L. I Davies, on Thursday, the 28th instant. 1 The contracting parties were Miss Mattie | 0. Duvies, of this place, and Mr. Thomas ' H. Hughes, of Richland, Oconee county. A beautiful marriage service, which uui- | ted in one the two loving hearts, was said by the Rey. Mr. Robinson, of Gatfney, in J the presence of the family and a few invited guests, at 12.30 o'block p. in., and a ( short time afterwards the happy bride 1 and groom were escorted to the Southern depot by loving friends, and took the 2 o'clock train for the home of the groom, where they will spend a brief honeymoon, and then settle down in Hetlin, Ala. They are both popular members of Blacksburg society, and have a host of friends, whose best wishes for happiness and success go with them in their new life. Julian Nicholson Ross, the adopted son of the late M. L. and Mrs. Elizabeth Ross, died at his residence in this place on Saturday, the 23rd of October, after a lingering illness of several months, aged about 23 years. On Sunday, in the presence of a large concourse of friends, and with a funeral service by the Rev. Mr. Bailey, pastor of the Baptist church, his remains were interred in the Baptist cemetery. He was born in Edgefield, S. C., and came among us as an orphan, having lost both of his parents at an early age. By his quiet demeanor, pleasant manners and genial nature, he won the good will and sympathy of all who knew him, and his affliction and early death touched a tender cord of sadness and regret in the hearts of many of our people. He leaves a loving and devoted wife, and many friends to mourn his loss. Alter a month's work in our graded school, Superintendent Jelferies reports very satisfactory progress, and the attendance has been uuusually large. Rev. R. W. Anderson held services and preached for the last time in the Episcopal church at this place on Sunday evening last. Bishop Capers will be here on next Sunday night and officiate in the church. w. a. # ? UP IN PENNSYLVANIA. "W. A." Tells About Some of the Things He Saw on His Recent Trip North. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Blacksburg, November 1.?When I promised to give an account for The Enquirer, of my recent trip to Central Pennsylvania, I must confess that I did not fully appreciate the desire that has since been manifested by some of the readers of your valuable paper, for some special, as well as general, information as to the people and industries of that portion of the old Keystone State, and of the impressions made upon the mind of one who was born and reared in the south, and whos<3 whole life has been spent among southern people. And first, for the benefit of those who, like myself, seldom get further from their homes than their county seat and neighboring towns, I will say that the distance from Blacksburg to Hollidaysburg, Pa., (my destination) is about 700 miles by ?" . ?r ?i.? I ran, uvcr UVU Ul tut; UIICSI laiuv/au OJOterns in the world?the Southern and the Pennsylvania?and the time consumed in going that distance, when all connectiions are made, is only about 21 hours, one of the many instances of rapid and cheap transit and of the great blessing of railroads in this wonderfully progressive age of the world. Boarding the vestibuled train of the Southern at 7 o'clock in the evening, Washingion, the National Capital, is reached about 7 o'clock next morning. Alter a stop of an uour in that beautiful and wonderful city for breakfast, the 7.50 train on the north central branch of the Pennsylvania railroad is taken, and Baltimore, the metropolis of Maryland, is soon eutered. A change of cars is made there, and the principal cities passed through on this line are York, one of the oldest towns in Pennsylvania; Harrisburg, the capital of the state, Lewistown, Huntington, Tyrone and Altooua. From the latter place, which is reached at 3.10 p. in., the traveler has his choice of getting to Hollidaysburg, seven miles away, but oil' of the main line of the road : either by the braucb road, which runs to several smaller towns in the Allegheny mountains, or by a line of trolley cars, that was built several years ago and which gives tho two cities a quick and cheap connection.. [ The route from Washington goei through the broad and fertile valleys o the Susquehanna and Juniata rivers, anc presents a variety of beautiful and pic turasque scenery which was constant!} changing from the placid waters of the rivers to the rich fields of corn and wheal on their borders, large orchards of fruil trees heavily laden with peaches, apples, plums and pears, handsome country residences, spacious barns, and on the other hand the rugged mountains and the gigantic trees with their variegated and lovely tints of autumn foilage. Hollidaysburg, a town of about.'5,000 inhabitants, is the capital of Blair couuty. It is nestled down among the spurs and ridges near the summit of the Allegheny mountains, and is surrounded by grand and beautiful scenery. Many of the citizens are wealthy and prominent in the affairs of the state. They are intelligent, progressive, social and hospitable, and, except for the influences of climate and locatiou and the advantages of more money and better circumstances since tbe war, they are not different in general character from the inhaoitauts of the Piedmout region of North and South Carolina. We might well imitate them in some respects, however, and one is in the completeness of their work. When they begin a building or piece of work, they do not stop it until it has a finished and neat appearance and looks as if it was put up, not just for a few years, but a whole century. Auother is that they take better care of what they have ; their land, fruit trees, vineyards, stock, farming utensils, etc. They have better roads than we have, and their teams can pull heavier loads, travel further in a day, aud there is not so much wear and tear on the vehicles. The virgin soil isj not much deeper or richer than ours, but by rotation of crops, the use of green fertilizers, of which red clover is the chief, aud deep plowing, the soil now is a rich ldam of from two to four feet deep, and both uplaud and bottom will produce from 30 to 40 bushels ol wheat, 75 to 100 bushels of corn, 300 to 500 bushels of potatoes and other products in proportion, to the acre. This condition of the (5oil has been made by years and years >f care and dilligence and patient work, snd a gradual but constant adding to each >'ear. Only 2-horse plows are used, and luring my visits through the country I lid not see a 1-horse plow or one horse plowing. Nearly all the work is done on the farm by using latest improved farm implements and machinery, and three or four men can cultivate 100 acres of land ind take care of all it makes. Com is cut and shocked in the fields, *ud wheat sown in September, and then the corn is husked or shucked in the fields, thrown .nto piles and hauled to the crib, and the stalks, with fodder and shucks, are taken to the barns. Wheat, barley, oates and clover are all gathered into the barns, which are very large and roomy, during the summer, packed away in the different apartments or "mows" and threshed, by steam power, during the winter when no outside work can be dons ou account of the cold and frozen condition of the ground. w. a. [To be continued in next Issue,J Blind Tigers Still Uneasy.?For several days recently there has been a report current on the streets of Columbia that Governor Ellerbe had retaiued a large secret constabulary force after he had published the announcement that he had withdrawn all but two?

A reporter for The Register saw Governor Ellerbe yesterday and communicated to him the rumor. "It is not true, sir !" suid the chief executive, most emphatically. "I have retained two extra men besides Eichleberger and Newbold," said he later; "but I don't want their names publish ?d. They are to assist in running do\ n the blind tigers in the rural districts." "What do you call these two extra men ?" was asked. "Specials," was the reply. The governor went on to explain that the "specials" would work only in the country districts ; that the towus would be left entirely in charge of the municipal authorities. The specials would have absolutely nothing to do with the towns.?Columbia Register. SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. A Stranger In (Jn'on. A golden-headed eagle, which measured 7 feet 4 inches from tip to tip of wings, was killed near Kellon, in Uuion couuty, last Thursday. Still Another Question. The state is trying to test the question as to whether,according to Judge Simouton, it is lawful for iudividuais to haul whisky through the country in wagous. Several wagons and teams engaged in hauling whisky from Augusta, Ga., to Laurens, were siezed the other day, aud it will be for Judge Simonton to decide whether or uol a wagou is a common carrier. It lit Comptroller-General Epton. Comptroller-General Norton, who was recently elected to the seat in congress made vacant when Congressman McLaurin became senator, tendered his resignation as comptroller-general last Friday, and Governor Ellerbe immediately announced as his successor Auditor Eptoti, of Spartanburg couuty. Epton has accepted the position, and ihe governor has appointed Mr. Eber Brewtou as auditor of Spartannurg county, to till the vacancy caused by the promotion of Auditor Epton. Murder In I'ickeim. Pickens dispatch of Thursday to the Columbia State: The Rev. J. L. Burdine, Baptist minister living in the upper part of this county, shot his wife today through the head, killing her instantly. Then he shot himself through the head. At last accounts he was still living, but unconscious. The cook was the only witness. He used a 38calibre Smith & Wesson pistol. He was on a protracted spree. Mrs. Burdine was an estimable woman, a sistet to Major Stewart, clerk of the court. Shortened HIh Term. Stephen Bryant, a white man, sent up from Marion county to serve a lift seutence in the penitentiary for mur der, committed suicide lust Fridaj night, in his cell, by stabbing himsel in the neck with a pair of scissors Bryant killed a neighbor. The jurj said it was cold-blooded murder; bui on account of doubt as to the sound 3 ness of the murderer's mind, there f was a recommendation to the mercy of ' the court. Bryant worked one day in ' the penitentiary hosiery mill. He had slt^pt one night in his cell. The 1 prospect was too much for him, and , from the hosiery mill he stole the scissors with which he ended his life. AT THE CHURCHES. baptist. I Rev. Edward S. Reaves, Pastor.

STRAUSS'S BIG DISCOUNT SALE. Under this heading in last Wednesday's Enquirer, I commenced cutting prices 011 every article in my store. The sale is to last until next Monday, when the discount feature will be discontinued and every article restored to its marked value. If you want to save money, be on the alert and act before my most liberal offer is withdrawn. Al ready hundreds of experienced bargain hunters have supplied themselves at my store and while all competitors were vieing with me, which is conclusive evidence that Strauss has the right kind of goods at prices to be depended on. Strauss protects his customers and his prices are in figures ! Strauss's Stock of Overcoats and Clothing is the best he ever handled ; it is the biggest and most complete, and when customers say that his prices are low, it would seem that they are satisfied, aud that the prices must be right, and that is just what people are saying of my Clothing, and Strauss has great stocks of Men's Underwear of wool and cotton, and at prices that no one will dare to shade. In my line of Men's Hats you iwill find crowds of bargains. The ladies all know that my stock of Dress Goods is in the front row. The ladies all know that iny stock of Gloves are on the front row to the right. The ladies all know that iny stock of Hosiery occupies the "stage" and the stocks of others are mere spectators. Let everybody remember that I have a full stock of goods of everykind that they would expect to find in a great dry goods store like mine, but my line of Corsets certainly occupy an important position in the public eye and my prices are on the bottom. All persons who desire to visit the Great Wallace Shows on next Tuesday, November 9th, are cordially invited to make my store their headquarters. Besides being the very best point to witness the street parade, on that day I will donate to my lady friends the exclusive use of a well fitted -1 ' it-. up touei room, inc gicaicai. convenience ever offered to ladies visiting Yorkville 011 a big public day.

NO BUCCY ON THE MARKET I IS EQUAL to the CAROLINA BUGGY at the price it is sold. It is not only the best buggy built in the soatbern states; but is also the best finished, in painting and trimming, while its durability is eoual to almost any requirement. The painting never allows it to present a shoddy, makeshift appearance at any stage of its existence. While it is made to sell, it is also made to satisfy the customer and represent a value equal to the price for which it is sold. It is LIGHT AND STRONG and always built of the very best material to be had, and in all stages of its construction it is passed through a thorough, severe and critical inspection by one whose first thought is to nave it built as nearpefection as human skill can accomplish. We make them to order or keep them in stock, and it will be to yourinterest to consult us when in need of a vehicle. THE CINCINNATI BUCCY Can always be purchased from us and at almost any price.
