panied by his wife, arrived in Aiken

In another column may be found

her brother, Mr. J. C. Hutson.
Mrs, W\ C. Paraga, of New York,

Mass., who has returned here for the
season, and is staying at Miss

Invitations have been issued for

ing, the 6th of February. The ball
promises to be a very handsome af
fair.
Mrs. Perkins, of Newburyport,
Mass., has rented the cottage of Mr.

The Hotel Seminole, at Winter
Park, Florida, is now open for the
season, and the proprietor, Air. W. F.
Paige, is prepared, as heretofore, to

forts and luxuries they may require.
Mr. Legare, of the staff of the Char
leston World was in Aiken a few days
ago, and paid a pleasant visit to the
Recorder office. The World is an
excellent paper, and it is to the inter
est of Charleston, and the whole
State that it have abundant support.^
Mr. C. F. Kohlruss has opened a
marble yard in Augusta at the corner
of Washington and Ellis Streets, and
has every facility for doing the best
of work. He was with Air. Alark-
walter for eight years, and many of
the very best pieces of marble and
stone work in Augusta are by his
hand.
On the night of the 13th lust., be
tween 12and 1 o’clock, the store-house

where Air. Togneri carried on a small
general merchandising business. The
building and contents were entirely
consumed. No insurance. The cause
of the lire is unknown.
Aiken Club.
A meeting of the Aiken Club was

Marriage of Mr. S. J. Ellison of Aiken,

Mr. Beckman’s New Office.
The finishing touches have been
put to the furniture and fixtures of
Air. J. H. Beckman’s new counting-
room on Laurens Street. All of the
desks and counters are home-made,
of native yellow pine, having been
built respectively by Alessrs. Price
aud Powell. The iron railings were
obtained from Baltimore, and are very
ornamental. The brick fire-proof
vault is large and roomy, aud con
tains two burglar-proof safes. Alto
gether all the arrangements of the
ofiice are very complete.
Special Rates to Aiken.
A few weeks ago we mentioned that
the Pennsylvania Railway had made
special passenger rates to Asheville,
N.C., Thomasville, Ga., aud Jack
sonville, Fla., but Aiken, S. C., had
been omitted. Now it is quite proba
ble that the auiliorities of that rail
way are not sufficiently informed of
the superior merits of Aiken; audit
is possible that if urgent representa
tion were made again by some of the
leading men of the Town, they may
be induced to place it on the list of
the favored. We are aware that ef
forts have been made in this direction
before, but we should try agaiu, and
not be contented until it is done.
Aikeu is one of the most attractive
resorts in the South, aud it is impor
tant that she should have every rail
way advantage.
We Will Advertise Aiken.
On account of the unexpected aud
flattering success that attended our
issue of the 8th iust„ descriptive ot
vhe advantages and attractions of Ai
ken County, and the many letters of
inquiry that we have received in con
sequence, from unknown persons at
tlie North, we have determined to
issue another more attractive and
more varied edition next Tuesday,
descrij tive of this section. It has not
been our practice to make any exag
gerated statements about the attrac
tions of the Town or County, but all
that we make we know, or believe, to
be true, and challenge a calm, busi
ness-like investigation of them.
We are satisfied that Aiken i>ossess-
es advantages that will in time make
it one of the most celebrated resorts
in the United States; and it is our
purpose to publish them to the world
and force them on the attention of
persons all over the North. To do
this effectively we will mail many
copies of The Recorder to the ad
dresses of private parties; and in this
work we ask the help of the citizens
of Aiken.
Thiel Caught.
H. W. Jackson and Ben Curry, both
colored, were co-partners in a shop
kept in the rear of the Park Avenue
Hotel. A short time ago Jackson
disappeared with $252 and a gold
watch that were not his property.
Tom Hayne, the very efficient deputy
constable, traced him to Cincinnati,
and back to Chattanooga, where he
has just been lodged in jail, charged
with some rascality there. His trial
was appointed for yesterday, and if
he has been acquitted he is stiil held
to await a requisition for him, now in
Hayne’s hands. So it seems be will
receive his deserts in any event.
Board ol Pens’ons.
The County Board of Pensions,
consisting of Dr. H. H. Wyman and
Messrs, Frank Dunbar and Janies L.
Quinoy, met yesterday aud organ
ized, with Air. Dunbar as chairman
and Air. Quinby as secretary.
Th? Board gives notice that a regu
lar meeting will be held at the Court
House at 10o’clock a. m., on Tuesday
the 29th inst., at which meeting all
persons seeking pi nsions must report.
By Act of the last Legislature all
pensions heretofore allowed have been
cancelled or revoked, and applicants
must make new applications, proof
of disability, poverty, etc. Under
the new law all persons who consider
themselves entitled to pensions will
appear for examination before the
County Board of Examiners. What
ever applications this Board approves
are sent up to the State Board aud, if
there approved, the pensions are al
lowed and are payable in two semi
annual installments of fifteen dollars
each. It will probably be the first of
April, perhaps later, before any
checks will reach the beneficiaries.
About That New Hotel.
The question of another fine hotel
is becoming year by year a matter of
greater interest to Aiken, as year by
year it is discussed. Thus far the
matter has not got beyond discussion;
but the season of the year is now ap
proaching when the usual annual
talk on the subject is done, and it is
well tiiat it should be brought to the
front again, like the water-works and
the school building. One of these
days something will be done. We
have not lost confidence in these
three enterprises. The prosperity of
Aikeu depends upon them, and we
will keep pegging away at them un
til they are accomplished.
As to this hotel proposition, it is
well known that for quite a period
every season the hotels here now, al
though most admirably kept, cannot
accommodate all the persons who
want to visit Aiken. Another first-
class hotel, so far from reducing the
patronage of the hotels here now,
would operate as an advertisement of
Aiken, and attract many people who
would not come here otherwise. This
has been the experience all over Flor
ida and Southern Georgia. Another
large, first-class hotel would put new
life into Aiken, and the stockholders
here weuld get back their money
many times through the enhance
ment 111 the value of other property,
aud the general increase ot business.
The winter travel to this section
last season was greater than it ever
was before, and this season it prom
ises to be fully as groat, notwithstan
ding the unusually mild weather that
has prevailed oyer the North to the
present time.
Thomasville and all Florida have
grown into importance by reason of
their hotels, although nowhere there
can such a fine climate be found as
we have, and we owe it to ourselves
to take hold of this matter and carry
it to a successful conclusion.
Is Consumption Incurable?
Bead the following: Mr. C. H. Mor
ris, Newark Ark., says: “was down
with Abscess of Lungs, and friends
and physicians pronounced me an In
curable*Cousumptive. Began taking
Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con
sumption, am now on my third bot
tle, and am able to oversee the work
on my farm. It is the finest medi
cine ever made.”
Jesse Aliddlewart, Decatur, Ohio,
says: “Had it not been for Dr. King’s
New Discovery for Consumption I
would have died of Lung Troubles.
Was given up by doctors. Am now
in best of health.” Try it. Sample
bottles free at W. J. Platt’s Drug
store.
Col. Wm. L. Trenholm, the Comp
troller of the Currency, has been
elected President of the American
Surety Company of New York. He
intends ro remain at the head of the
office of Comptroller of the Currency
until after the 4th of Alareh, when he
will assume ids new duties.
It is estimated that Barnwell Coun
ty farmers consume fully 12,000 tons
of fertilizers annually. The Sentinel
says that if the price goes $5 higher
the increased cost in that County
alone will amount to $00,000.
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is prescribed
and recommended by eminent phy
sicians, and is taken with perfect
safety by old and young. Us cleans
ing and vitalizing effect are sure and
speedy, and it is universally conceded
to be the most effective of all blood
purifiers.
Rin ing Noises.
In the ears, sometimes a roaring, buz
zing sound, are caused by catarrh,
that exceedingly disagreeable and
very common disease. Loss of smell
or hearing also result from catarrh.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla, 'he great blood
purifier, is a peculiarly successful
remedy for this disease, which it cures
by purifying the blood. If you suffer
from catarrh, try Hood’s Sarsaparilla,
the peculiar medicine.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
Col W K Nelson, of Brooklyn, came
home one evening, feeling a peculiar
