ever been tendered here. President and Mrs. Cleveland visited Charleston on February 28, 1888, but Mrs. Cleveland was only here for a few hours. Presidents Washington, Monroe and Polk were unattended by their wives when they visited the city. Tonight the ballroom was exquisitely decorated for the occasion and was in keeping with the splendid toilets of the 500 brilliantly gowned women who came to do honor to the president's charming wife. Mrs. Roosevelt and the ladies of her party occupied a dias near the southern end of the room and they received the guests who were introduced by Mrs. Andrew Simons, Jr., of this city. The reception began at 9 o'clock and lasted until after midnight. CHEROKEE CHAT. Cold Injure* Vegetation?Extending the Telephone?Rural Free Delivery. Correspondence of the Yorkrille EnQuirer. Etta Jane, April 9.?The cold last night, it is thought by some, has killed the peach crop. Some had cabbage plants up and other vegetables which suffered more or less from the cold. Mr. Bridges, of Blacksburg, accompanied by Mr. W. S. Wllkerson, of Hickory Grove, came over last Saturday, looking out a route to extend telephonic communication to this section, and from what I learn they were much encouraged at the prospect. We need such a service. We are glad to learn that our neighbors across the river, on the York side, are much pleased with the rural free delivery mail service, so far as they have tested it, and we hope it will grow in popularity and usefulness. Some fanners will plant corn this week. Some little corn was planted last week. More corn will be planted, on an average, this year, than formerly, we verily believe. prftot on Cotton.?Theodore H. Price, of New York, on Wednesday, sent out the following very interesting summary of the cotton situation from his point of view: "The highest prices reached this sea son for cotton have today been recorded and the market closes at the top. Today's advance Is, In my opinion, but a foretaste of what is yet to come. The figures of the visible supply on Fridaywill, I think, be startling and sensational. R. G. Dun & Co., say that their reports indicate a decrease of acreage for the next crop with smaller sales of fertilizers and a backward season. My own very exhaustive inquiry fully confirms this. The new crop is nearly three weeks late and the indicated acreage is 6 per cent, less than last year. The world consumes 225,000 bales weekly. If the crop shall prove to be three weeks late, then an additional 775,000 bales will be required out of this year's supply, already manifestly inadequate. If consumption continues at the present rate, there will be no cotton left by the 15th of July, as receipts are falling off with a unanimity and abruptness that is entirely confirmatory of short crop estimates. Two years ago, cotton sold at over 11 cents a pound upon a situation much less acute than will almost certainly develop this year. It seems Idle to anticipate the culmination of the present advance as long as the consumption continues undiminished." When the President Met Jenkins. ?Describing the trip of the president around Charleston harbor on the Algonquin, last Tuesday, a correspondent relates the following: There was another interesting incident on the trip brought about by the president seeing on board the Algonquin Major Micah Jenkins, formerly of the Rough Riders. "You old trump," exclaimed the president. "You old scamp! I am delighted to see you. This gives me exceeding pleasure." Major Jenkins, who is modesty itself, bowed and shook hands with the president, but Mr. Roosevelt was not through. "I heard that you were in Washington and yet you did not come to see me. If you do that again, it will not be good for you. The idea of your coming to Wasnington and not calling to see me. How could you do such a thing?" ,i. AT THE CHURCHES.

W E have long antireclated that the I tastes and requirements of this market as to qualities and varieties were of a | ' high order, and it has been our deter- ( mined purpose to meet these tastes and requirements to the letter.

We believe we are prepared to 1 satisfy aimost any taste or judgment as to qualities and prices. Some New Dress Goods. Although we are especially desirous of giving a full description of what Is to be found in our DRESS GOODS I DEPARTMENT, we confess at the out- ; set that we realize our utter inability 1 to do so. No customer who comes and ] ? makes an investigation can fall to ap pieciate the reason. The variety Is too ! eat. We are at a loss to know where ( to begin. What to put in, what to leave out and where to end. No attempted description would be satisfactory.
