OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
' Washtnqto^ D..0, July 3,1886.
' It ia refreshing now and then to turn
our thoughts from the strifes aud turmoils
of the world into quieter channels. With
^that object in view I strolled through the
^owercorridors of tb6 new Pension build?
ing the other day and accidently run
upon a little stand from which is vended
cigars, tobaccos, fruits and other like
articles that tompt the appetite. This
stand itrkept by a tall, erect and manly
personage, who bears' a striking resem?
blance to General George Washington,
and he claims to be the nearest living
relative of the immortal George. His
name is Ebenezer Burgess Ball, and he
belongs to the F. F. V'b of Virginia,
from which Washington's father selected
'Hary Ball to be his wife. His life has
been an adventurous one, but of late
years he has been residing,in. this city.
On the completion of the Washington
Monument he applied for the position, of
watchman,, thinking that it would be a
fitting thing for the nearest living relative
? of the "Father of His Country," to watch
ever the shall erected to his memory.
He failed to obtain the.position however,
and he then applied to Commissioner
Black for a position as watchman, but
'were being no auch place vacant the
General gave him permission to start the
present stand. He is a pleasant old gen?
tleman and very popular among the clerk
of the office, who patronize him gener?
ously, so that he makes a comfortable
living." ?
The proposition made to Congress some
time ago to establish a bureau, charged
with the purchase, of all supplies needed
by the several departments, will not be
.pushed this session.. The advocates of
the measure have prepared statistics to
show how much the Government would
save by purchasing such supplies as coal,
ice, furniture, stationery, and the like in
large quantities direct from the producers
instead of through the middle men. It
is also contended that besides a
saving von the articles purchased
there Will be a further saving in
cutting down the extravagancies' which
have prevailed for so long a time. Each
department has had the purchasing of its'
own supplies aud as a consequence every
whim of the heads of the bureaus has
been gratified,, no matter at what cost
If there should be a single purchasing
office for all the departments, articles
absolutely necessary for comfort and con?
venience would be furnished, but there
would not be the same reckless disregard
for expense as under the present system,
because when people purchase for others
they Vre more economical than- when
purchasing for themselves; even though
they do not pay out of their own pockets.
The opponents of the new scheme how?
ever say that if the porcliasing power was
vested in one man or even in a board or
ganized for the purpose, there would be
mach corruption to arise out of it, as a
[ few men would use money freely to con
jfcrol the purchasing'agent. At any rate
there is no prospect of the bill becoming
a law this session.
' Of all the great park schemes introduc?
ed into Congress this session none rivals
in immensity-and magnificence the
scheme of ;Senator Butler, to convert the
historical and memorial Arlington estate
-into a national park. The proposition is
to throw an iron bridge, having a wagon
way of 30 feet wide and. foot-ways on
either side 8 feet wide, across the Poto?
mac river from the present Naval-Obser?
vatory grounds to some convenient point
in the Arlington estate, thus uniting Vir?
ginia and the District of Columbia, and
converting the Arlington plateau into a
parade ground and forming a continuous
park from the Botanical Gardens to the
extreme Western boundary of Arlington.
Within the limits named Senator Butler
proposes to furnish the National Capital
with a national park that will be to
Washington what Hyde Park is to Lon?
don, a resort fox pleasure, a place where
a national exhibition can be held, where
-there will be room and accommodation
for military parades and other national
demonstrations. The Senator thinks that
it would be a good plan to have a muster
'and review of our Slate militia at least
once every four years. This is one of the
many uses which a national park in
Washington will serve.
As was anticipated and predicted in
these letters would be the case, there have
been wholesale dismissals, promotions
and appointments in the several depart?
ments this week. The most numerous
changes were made in the Treasury De?
partment, and the fewest in the Depart?
ment of Justice, There are rumors of
more changes In the next ten days, and
until the month of. July passes there will
be many anxious hearts among govern?
ment employees? Changes are also now
being made in the District offices. The
new Democratic appointees are dyed in
the wool bourbons and believe that
Democrats should hold the offices ander
a Democratic administration. The new
Commissioners have accordingly removed
the Superintendent. of Police and ap?
pointed a good Democrat in his place
and madarne rumor says that the Auditor
and also the Collector of Taxes will band
in*their resignations in a short time.
The latter is a colored man, and has held
the position for nearly fifteen years,
H.
Murdered by a Woman.
MiDWAYj July 4.?At Hunter's Chapel
Church this morning, while Sunday
school was in session, Miss Emma Con?
nelly killed John A Steedy. She walked
into the church with her arms folded and
a pistol in one band, cocked. She passed
into the seat in rear of Steedly, and when
just behind him shot him. He arose,
looked around, tried to get out his pistol,
and at the same time made for the door.
Miss Connelly snapped her pistol at him
again, but it failed to go off. If it had
gone off the chances are that some one
else would have been hurt, as the church
was; crowded.
! Ste-;dly fell at the door of the church
just outside and died in about three min?
utes. There was great excitement among
the ladies and children at the time.
Steedly had been putting out damaging
reports about Miss Connelly, for which
Lor brothers and a Mr. Ott had horse
whipped him some time ago, an account
of which appeared in your paper. Some
ten days since Steedly published a letter
in your paper giving his version of the
whipping and reiterating the reports.
This letter seems to have been the imme?
diate cause of the shooting. .
; As far as can be.ascertained the feeling
of the pnblic seems to favor Miss Connel?
ly, who is under arrest.
In the News and Courier on June 7 the
following letter was published from our
Bamberg correspondent:
i "Some excitement prevails in the
neighborhood of Hunter's Chapel over
the cowbidiag of Mr. John Steedly by
Messrs. W. T. Connelly and A. L. Ott.
It seems that Steedly had been circulat?
ing false and damaging reports concern?
ing Connelly's sister. In order to obtain
full satisfaction for the offence Messrs.
.Connelly and Ott purchased a $2.50
Whalebone whip, waited upon Mr. Steed?
ly and administered about thirty lashes,
wearing the whip completely out. It is
said that St Bediy has become reconciled
to his fate, since calling upon a (rial
justice and being advised that in case a
lawsuit was entered against Messrs. Con
nelly nud Ott other punishment wonld
probably be inflicted for circulating
reports equally false and damaging con?
cerning other persons."
On June 23 a letter from John A.
Steedly was published, iu which he said:
? "In your issue of the 7th inst., I see a
card from your Bamberg correspondent,
stating that I was cowbided by \V. T.
Connelly and A. L. Ott. Your corres?
pondent did me great injustice in that
report. I was attacked by Messrs Con?
nelly and Ott, and before I had any
warning Connelly presented a cocked
Eietol at me and Ott placed bis band on
is, and I was told by both of these men
that if I moved they would kill me.
Connelly did strike me several blows with
a whip, the cost of which I do not know
or care. Your correspondent says that
I had be?n circulating false and damag?
ing reports concerning Connelly's sister.
That is untrue. All that I said was in a
very confidential way, and I had no de?
sire or expectation of doing Mies Con?
nelly any damage by speaking of her to
my friend, -but unfortunately for me
and him be divulged the secret.
"And now,, since the lady and her
friends have taken the steps they have,
injustice to myself I must say that her
mother knows the whole truth and knows
that I have not lied. Every one can see
that your correspondent was not disposed
to do me justice in that report.
"I hope in the future, when using my
?ime through the papers, he will be
uareful'to say nothing but the truth.
Time will tell, whether 1 am reconciled to
my fate or no: and as to his statement
about my calling on a trial justice, it is,
as other statements made, either wilful or
negligently untrue. Now, Mr. Editor, I
hope in justice to me you will publish
this."
On June 25 the Bamberg correspondent
of the News aid Courier wrote as follows:
"In justice of your correspondent and
Mr. Steedly ii? is necessary to state that
the report made concerning the cowind?
ing of Mr. John Steedly was founded
entirely upon information given your
correspondent by a gentleman whom he
believes to be reliable. His statements
have been confirmed by other parties,
and your correspondent has neither seen
nor heard a denial of the facts as reported
until MrtSteedty's card appeared in the
News and -Courier yesterday. It was far
from the intention of your correspondent
to do Mr. Steedly an injustice, and it is
hoped that, ho may be able to clear up
the matter ssitisfactorily."?Dispatch to
the'News and Courier.
A Revival at Walhalla.
During the past week there has been a
series of meetings in progress in the/
Methodist Church, such as has never be?
fore bf held in Walhalla. The plain
and powerful preaching of the gospel by
?Rev. J. W. W?lling, of Anderson, S. O.,
has been blessed bf the Spirit in conver?
sion of about thirty souls and building
up those who were already believers in
:' the most holy faith. Great assistance
has been given him by the valuable ser?
vices of Revs. J. Fletcher Anderson,'J.
H. Morgan, T. C. Ligon, Messrs. H. G.
Scadday, 0.-0. Cummings, A. T. Dun
lap and Miss Samnella Brown, who have
done faithful labor for the Master, and
by prayer,- exhortation and song have
earnestly worked for the salvation of our
people. Such abundant fruit has never
attended the preaching of the word in
our remembrance, ana all - of every
Christian denomination seem tobe alike
interested in the advancement of the
kingdom of God and His righteousness
among the children of men. The great
heed of our Church is active, working,
living faith, and do one can doubt tbat
in many, hearts there has been the bap?
tism, of the Holy Ghost, and where here?
tofore there bad been nothing but spir?
itual death, there is now the richest and
sweetest Christian experience. Ten
have joined the church, many are seek?
ing salvation and Christians of every
name and order are blessed in a sweeter
experience. The meeting will probably
continue all week,?Eeowee Courier.

ALWAYS
SOMETHING NEW!
YoU have already learned through the local columns in the last issue of the
Intelligencer the fact that we have bought out the entire stock of Messrs. j. M.
McConnell & Co., comprising nearly six thousand ($6,000) dollars worth of Goods,
ombracing splendid lines of?
Dry Goods, Boots, Shoes, Hats, Notions,
And, indeed, everything usually found in first class Dry Goods stores. This, in
addition to our already very large Stock, gives us the largest and most complete
assortment of Goods ever before contained in any one Store in this City or in the
upper part of the State. We bought them at a bargain for spot Cash, and propose
to give the trading public the benefit of it.
We know that the prices we offer these Goods at will be a surprise to you. We
know, also, that competition is out of the question, for if others would undertake
to sell their Goods at the prices we do, they would have to sell them for less than
they paid for them, and board themselves besides, and this wouldn't be business, you
know.
The following are a few of the prices at which we will sell for the next sixty
days, in order to make room for our Fall purchases :
5,000 pairs Ladies' and Gent's Shoes, from 50c to $1.00 per pair.
1,000 pairs Ladies' and Gents' Shoes, from $1.00 to $2.50 per pair.
1,000 Men's and Boys' Straw Hats, from 5c to 75c each?worth double the
money.
750 Men's and Boys' Wool and Fur Hats from 10c to $1.50 each?worth twice
the money.
Dress Goods, Notions, Fancy Goods, Hosiery, Gloves, Ladies' Collars and
Cuffs, Belts, Veiling, Ruffling, and a multitude of other article?, at just half the
customary prices.
RIBBONS?a large lot, including all the new shades?on which we are entire?
ly overstocked, and most sell. You can have them at your own price.
CORSETS from 25c to 50c?can't be bought for less than 50c to 75c. The fa?
mous "Ball" Corsets, the best in the world, we will sell at less thau manufacturer's
cost. The makers of these Corsets require their agents to sell them at not less than
25 per cent, above cost, but as we bought them at an Assignee's Sale, of course
made no agreement of that sort. Buyers, who understand their true value, are
eagerly making their purchases now, and we would advise you to buy early, as we
will not be able to replace them at the prices offered.
On next Thursday, Friday and Saturday, the 8th,
9th and 10th days of July,
We will make a Special Exhibit of Gent's and Boys' STRAW and FELT HATS,
with prices marked down low, to be good only for these three days. We want
everybody who ivants Hats to come, as this will be an opportunity to buy tbem
cheap, and for less than their value.
Come anyway, whether you want to buy.or not, but bring your money along,
in case you should see anything in our Store so cheap that you may want it, that
you may not be disappointed about it.
We will be glad to see you at all times, and will do our beat to please you.
We know that we can make it to your interest to give ub your trade, as we have a
Stock of Goods that cost us less money than others have to pay for them. Come
and see for yourselves. Respectfully,
BLE0KLEY, BROWN & FRETWELL.

The American Fruit Preserving

WAS introduced last year into nearly
every section of the County, so tha(
it is not necessary for us to publish certiG;
cates now, but merely call your attention
to the fact that Cherries are getting ripe,
and it would be well to take care of theui
for next Winter. If you were not fortu?
nate enough to use it last year, you know,
nothing of its merits, but ask your next
door neighbor what he thinks about it;
and if he don't know, come to see us and
we will point you to some friend of youre
who cun tell you all about it. Remember,
\t costs you only $1.00, and no dollar was
