Greenville News, Wednesday: The advertisement in the Greenville News for the sale of a number of unclaimed freight packages containing school charts, school books and school furniture consigned to W. W. Tutwiler, re- ' calls the adventures of that smooth citizen working off on unsuspecting and innocent school trustees large quantities of school paraphernalia at 1 A ? -J ^nt rvfi noci i wnao were sum iu uccauiuivuuv |/?. and the charge that Superintendent of Education W. D. Mayfield was not sufficiently watchful to spoil his game. Nothing could be learned here yesterday about these packages nor where Mr. Tutwiler had gone. All that was known at the freight office was that the packages were shipped here from Greenwood and Ninety-Six, where they remained unclaimed for six months. Mr. Tutwiler apparently 1 did not think his goods worth the , v freight charges and is probably in some other state seeking new worlds to ' conquer. Situation in South Africa.?The latest information from South Africa, contained in London dispatches under date of November 3, does not give additional particulars as to the situation at Ladysmilb. Paris dispatches under date of November 2, say that the Boers have completely surrounded Ladysmith and have repelled several sorties attempted by General White's forces. Everything indicates that telegraphic communication with Ladysmith has been broken. The losses on both sides in the fighting at and around 1 Ladysmith are known to have been very heavy ; but as yet no detailed report has been published. It is report- 1 eel tnai isriusn war amps uave assumed control of Delagoa bay, aod this is looked upon as very significant. The Dutch subjects of Great Britain in South Africa are reported to be joining the Boers in large numbers. Wiped 'Em All Up at Once.?Our reply to the Spartanburg Herald and The Yorkville Enquirer last week was written and in type before we had the privilege of reading the criticisms of The State. As we think, in that reply, we fully anticipated the remarks > of The State, we do not deem it necessary to give them further attention. We consider that we have fully vindicated ourself against the charges made by our honored contemporaries, but in the meantime, if they have any new ones to prefer, we hold ourself in readiness to give them a respectful hearing. ?Gaffney Ledger, Tuesday. Mistrial in the Howie Case. In the case of Henry B. Howie, charged in Chester with assault and battery with intent to kill Mr. Joseph A. Walker, the jury, at 5.30 o'clock, Tuesday evening, reported that it was unable to agree. It stood six to six. The evidence against Howie was very stroDg, and Judge Buchanan is report- , ed to have given the jury a contempt- 1 uous raking for its failure to agree upon a verdict. Howie was released on bond until the next term of the court. AT THE CHURCHES. TRINITY METHODIST EPISCOPAL. * rev. a. n. brunsox, pastor.

TO buy an OLIVER CHILLEI PLOW, a CORBIN DISK HAR ROW, a HOOSIER or CHAMPIOJ DISK DRILL during the next 60 days or on or before January 1, 1900, will, if h< lives until after that time, regret it Strong language, tnat; but i am morau: certain that every word of my openinj sentence is true, and for two reasons First, Because all THINKING farmer are rapidly coming to realize that the orrt; hope for them is to economize time an< labor, by using the class of implement enumerated; and because the price afte January 1, will be from 25 to 50 per cent higher than now. In fact the wholesali price of Disk Harrows has already beet advanced from 25 to 35 per cent.: but have not advanced my prices, ana conse quently they are less than present whole sale prices. The second reason is that i you buy some other make of Harrow Drill or Plow, you will, like others, real ize your mistake after it is too late, have recently been offered plows soli last fall and winter and guaranteed to bi "just as good as the Oliver" for one-hal price paid by purchasers, in part pay to: an Oliver!

We don't believe that there is a man, woman or child who reads this announcement, i that will be so unsophisticated as to consider ! seriously the declaration made above. Our ; clientage is intelligent enough to know that ; there is very little philanthropliy flowing ! through the regular channel of everyday ; business, and that, usually, gifts from a mer cantile establishment to its customers acts as a "two edged sword," ana is oiten tne result of a lack of confidence in the quality of their goods and "presents" are used to pacify and delude purchasers of their shortcomings I THE GANSON DRY GOODS COMPANY, of Yorkville, S. C., has a reputation for handling1 high-class merchandise at shorter profits than any establishment in the Carolinas, and this reputation extends over a larger contiguous territory than does that of any ' other concern in the two states. EVERY ARTICLE OF MERCHANDISE IN OUR STORE IS A LEADER! Every article in our store is marked so close to its value that the margin of profit is reduced to a minimum, and would-be-competitors have to resort to delusion and snares to entice people into their web. They give you 87 1-2 cents worth of what you call for and want, and 12 1-2 cents worth of what you don't want, to throw you off your guard and close your eyes to their shoddy merchandise, while they make a brass band display of their disinterested liberality! Our prices are so close and our goods of such high quality that we do not have to ' deed town lots or model farms to attract [ the attention of customers; but people who ; take advantage of prices quoted over our i counters have money to buy presents of ; their own selection, and can't be ensnared by the wiles of the desperate competitor to pay fifty per cent, profit on their merchandise ! I Hundreds of people come miles and miles to our store on account of the values that we give, and once a customer of the GANSON DRY GOODS STORE, ALWAYS A CUSTOMER. . Every day new customers crowd before our counters to buy bargains that their neighbors had bought the day before. Every customer is a living, moving, talking advertisement for our goods. 5 No establishment can give you more for your money than we? r.i,.,^1 c ffir frt rriiro 1?cc pvprvhndv's monev iiuiiuit.ua win u y iv ^ i v v. j uu T T w ~ .?j j _ y alike.
