Even the Thieves Know Where the Good Things Are. It is true we have been advertising extensively, and inviting every one, regardless of race, color or previous condition to come to see us, but we desire now to say that from this time on we would be pleased to have those who wish to visit our immense Cloth ing, Shoe and Hat departments, to come tvliile we are in, and not in the small hours of the night while we are all at home taking our rest. We have been endeavoring to tempt the people to come witli all the nice and pretty goods that could be had from the best makers in America, but we did not intend to go quite so far as to make it so enticing as to cause them to break through and steal. There is no telling the effect Brad well’s great display of fine goods is having on the public, and it is a fact that locks must be made stronger or the attrac tions must be decreased. We shall take the lormer course—put on double locks—and increase all the attractions, novelties, &e., so come along all you who wish to pay for what you get, don’t think for a mo ment that because they break through we will be intimidated or prevented from still show ing the finest slock of clothing, shoes and hats that was ev er brought to this market.

Messrs. Rives & Co., the leaders in the dry goods business began their special sales days on last Wednesday and advertised in both of the papers here, and they were quite surprised to see what a crowd printer’s ink would draw. This is the first of the kind in our place of that nature to ad vertise such things as they did, such as thirty-six inches wide Fruit of the Loom bleaching at 5 cents per yard, and Coats’ and Kerr’s spool cotton at 2ht cents a spool and many other things of the same nature at one-half their price for the one day only, and as was advertised could be had at the price named.

A fine building lol, and over $500 in money have al ready been secured for this purpose, aud it is desired to raise a good fund sufficient to give the charitable enter prise a start. The object is wholly unselfish, solely for the relief of inva lids, who may need the life giving air in Aiken. There will be no admission fee charged at the lecture but contri butions are earnestly solicited, and they may be handed either to Capt. Coles, or the members of the com mittee. Another Hotel in Summerville. The News and Courier had a sensa tional local item a few days ago about a project to build another hotel in Summerville—a hotel that would dwarf into insignificance the Ponce de Leon, and all the hotels in St. Augustine and Jacksonville com bined. Of this nearly all was sensa tion. But it is a fact that another ho tel is to be built there at once. It will be a house of moderate size, but surrounded by numerous cottages, which will be let to visitors. Mr. Dotis A. Miller, of North Carolina is at the head of the scheme, and has purchased a tract of land known as tlie B. B. Smith farm, on the extreme western edge of the village, contain ing about 50 acres, for which he has already paid $4,000. It is said that Mr. Miller has ample capital at his back, and work on the buildings will be commenced at once. John C. Sheppard will be the next Governor of South Carolina. He is an Edgefield man, and will beat Tillman in his own county. The Edgefie.d ptople know him and res pect hi n.

One bright spring morning, In the early dawning, A billet deux” was received By one who could “never be deceived.” And the contents of the same— I hope no one will blame— Was "meet me to-irfght At early candle light.” •‘Do not fail to come, I pray. For that I have to say The place I have in view, Can be accomplished only by you.” This urgent summons received. With no thought of being deceived, To the barber snop he hied And had the razor well applied; Then with a generous shampooing He was ready for the wooing; Not ready, however, quite yet, For he was bound to “tix up, you bet.” And, with a very critical eye, He put on a collar standing high, Then arranging his cravat with care, Gave an extra stroke to his shining hair. His preparations now complete, He sallied forth, his girl to meet. Never dreaming of deception, And little doubting his reception. But, alas! for all human hopes! The fellow didn’t “know the r#pes”; For, according to an old time rule, The billet deux was an April Fool. County Convention Call.
