Mr. E. R. Burgess, of Williamston,
sailed in to see ns Tuesday and subscribed
for the Intelligencer. He Informed us
that a few days ago he slaughtered a pig,
which was only eight and a half months
aid, that weighed 304 pounds. This is,
we believe, the largest pig for its age we
aave ever heard of. Mr. Burgess thinks
if he had kept it until it was twelve
months old it would have weighed nearly
500 pounds. The pig was of mixed
breed, the Berkshire, Poland China and
Tersey Red being about equally repre?
sented in it.
On Tuesday afternoon as the train on
the Savannah Valley Road was coming in
;he city an old negro woman came near
being killed on the trestle near Mt. Tabor
cemetery. She and another woman were
walking down the track and had just
started across the trestle when the train
?me in sight. They concluded that they
sould reach the other end before the train
would arrive at the trestle. The younger
woman succeded in doing so. The old wo?
man, however, was too slow, and seeing
that the train was going to catch her, she
jumped off of the trestle in order to save
tier life. Where she j umped the trestle is
not very high, but in jumping she struck
3ome of the timbers and was painfully
hurt.
On Wednesday morning, about 1 a. m.,
Mr. J. F. McGowan went into the Post
office to post some letters, when he dis?
covered that something was burning on
the inside. He gave the alarm, and in a
short time the firemen were on hand.
Mr, E. P. Welch, Postoffice Clerk, who
rooms on the Square, was among the first
to hear the alarm and reach the building.
He went in and with two buckets of
water extinguished the fire, which had
burned through the floor near the west
wall. A few more minutes and the builfe
ing would have probably been destroyed.
The fire originated from a box of ashes,
which had been taken from the stove the
preceding morning and unintentionally
left sitting on the floor. The damage is
slight.
The city authorities are now roady to
sell lots in Silver Brook Cemetery, and
by reference to an advertisement in an?
other column it will be seen that the sale
will begin on Monday, 12th inst., on which
day all our citizens are invited to visit
the cemetery and meet the Council there.
The lots will not be auctioned off, but
each lot, so far as the grounds have been
laid off, will have its price conspicuously
posted on it, and every citizen may take
his choice. Of course, some of the lots are
more desirable than others, and the
price, therefore, will vary somewhat.
Every person who desires a choice lot
should, therefore, be present on the 12th
inst. A public cemetery has long been
demanded by our people, and now that
our city fathers have supplied that de?
mand, we think it the duty of every citi?
zen to invest in a lot at once, and not put
it off until some member of their family
dies. The Council desire to continue to
improve ike cemetery, and every dollar
invested by our people in lots will be
spent on the grounds. The location is
certainly a most beautiful one, and if a
large number of lots are sold at once, the
money derived therefrom will enable the
Council to soon make it one of the pret?
tiest cemeteries to be found in the State.
Alderman McGee, who is Chairman of the
Cemetery Committee, has a plat of the
grounds on exhibition at Means &
McGee's store, and will take pleasure in
showing it or giving any information con?
cerning the cemetery to any of our citi?
zens who may call upon him.
Judge Pressley heard the case of tho
State ex relatione John O'Donnell against
the City Counoil of Anderson, on a writ
of certiorari, last Friday night at Green?
ville, W. S. Brown appearing for tho
Council and G. E. Prince for Mr. O'Don?
nell. The matter was carried before J udge
Pressley by Mr. O'Donnell on the ques?
tion of the right of a jury in the cases in
which he had been convicted before the
Mayor for selling liquors without license,
he having demanded a jury and the May?
or having denied that right, holding that
the charter of the city does not provide
for a jury. Judge Pressley decides that
Mr, O'Donnell had the right to bo tried
by a jury, IicuaiiHo llic charter gives Uio
Mayor tho samo powers of Trial .1 ustices,
and because parties tried before Trial Jus?
tices have that right. Tho Mayor holds,
and is sustained by some of tho best legal
talent in Anderson, that the charter gives
the Mayor the power to try offenses
against the city ordinances, with tho'right
to appeal to a full Council, and the right
of a jury is not contemplated by tho char?
ter. The matter, we learn, will go to the
Supreme Court of the State, where we
think it should go, in order that the mat?
ter may be settled, so that future Coun?
cils may know what the law is in such
cases. Since the decision of Jndge Press
? ley, the Mayor, with a jury, has tried two
other cases against Mr. O'Donnell for sell?
ing whiskey, and in both cases a mistrial
was the result. The Mayor seems untiring
in the discharge of his duties in trying
offenders, and we wait the result with
some anxiety.

The Pioneers' Anniversary.
The Pioneer Steam Fire Engine Com?
pany celebrated its fourth anniversary
last Thursday evening by indulging in an
oyster supper at White's Hotel, and every
one present voted it as one of the most
pleasant evenings in their experience.
The Independent Hook and Ladder Com?
pany was present and participated in the
enjoyment of the evening.
At the appointed hour the Pioneers, to?
gether with the Independents, formed in
line in front of their hall on Granite Row,
and, headed by the Young America Cor?
net Band, marched across the Square to
the hotel, where they were joined by their
invited guests. The procession immedi?
ately filed into the spacious dining-room,
where they were at once made ready to
devour the tempting bivalves. The party
numbered about seventy-five, all told,
and tho firemen, in their bright uniforms,
presented, as they always do, a handsome
appearance.
Chief Di wer presided, and as soon as
every one was comfortably seated, he
called upon Rev. Dr. Frierson to say grace,
after which the feast began. The gallant
firemen soon evinced the fact that they
knew as much about stowing away oysters
as they do in subduing the fiery flames,
and it was not long before everybody's
appetite was satisfied.
Cigars were then passed around, and
then speech-making was in order. Mayor
Tolly was first called upon, and respond?
ed in his usual happy style. He was fol?
lowed by Mr. L. E. Norryce, of the Inde?
pendents. Chief Divver was next called
upon, and then Rev. Dr. Frierson and
Capt. J. B. Patrick, each of whom re?
sponded in' an appropriate manner.
Messrs. H. M. Ayer, C. F. Jones, J. N.
Watkins, J. G. Cunningham, C. C. Lang
ston, R. R. Todd, Foster Fant, E. C Fri?
erson, J. M. Payne, J. W. Trowbridge and
H. Schlapbach were also called upon in
the order named, all of whom responded
in a few appropriate remarks.
At intervals during the evening delight?
ful music was furnished by a band com?
posed of Messrs. H. Schlapbach, Ben.
Daniels, Sam. Trowbridge and J. W.
Trowbridge.
By 11 o'clock the repast was over with,
and every one retired feeling that it was
"good to have been there."
Landlord White maintained his reputa?
tion as a caterer, and many compliments
were paid him for the excellent manner
in which everything was prepared and
served.
May the Pioneers long live to celebrate
similar occasions.

Seeing the little reminiscences related in
last week's paper of Uncle Billy Holmes,
brings to our mind one told us by an old
citizen of this County. Several years ago
during court, he was told to call Mio.
Dominick. He went to the door in his
usual manner and cried, "My old Domi
necker, my old Domineckor, Come into
Court, sir." s

Spring an Summer Blues.
Can't you eat? Have you no appetite?
Try a bottle of Westmoreland's Calisaya
Tonic, It will give you an appetite and
aid your digestion.
Easley, June 25,1384.
I can add my testimony to the many
others already offered, as to the invaluable
virtue of "Westmoreland's Calisaya Ton?
ic." During the opening of Spring I was
very weak, scarcely able to walk half a
mile without resting, and after using one
bottle of the Tonic my strength increased,
and my appetite improved, until I can
walk four miles an hour and eat as many
beans, etc., as any ordinary man.
A. M. FOLGER, Postmaster.
Use Dr. Dukes' Anti-Bilious Wafers in
connection with the Tonic if your liver is
out of order.

THE REASONS WHY?
FOR twelvo years the New York Cask
Store has enjoyed tho reputation of keep?
ing the best stock and selling at the lowest
prices. Since the opening of the New York
House of Cohen, Arnstein & Bonn, at the
corner of 3rd Avenue and 5Gth Street, the
New York Cash Store has better facilities
than ever of obtaining bargains, and that
is one reason why M. B. Arnstein is doing
such a big business this Fall. Another
reason is his determination to lead in the
lead, undorbuy and undersell, offer the
best Goods for the least money, and at all
times give his customers the benefit of his
cheap purchases.
FOR THIS WEEK
the following Bargains will be offered:
?O pieces of beautiful Dress Goods?fine
twilled or fancy designs, the filling guaran?
teed to be pure wool?at only 12c a yard.
25 pieces of fine Tricot Flannels, in the
new shades of green, navy, black, garnet,
and brown, at only 20c a yard.
20 pieces of full yard wide Broadwale
and English Suitings reduced from 35c to
25c a yard.
15 pieces of yard wide English Cash?
mere?beautiful shades and fine textura?
heretofore sold by all at 40c, now only 25c
a yard.
Christmas is coming, and we are anxious
to dispose of our large stock of Dross
Goods. Everybody can get a bargain, if
they will only come to the New York
Cash Store. Black Cashmeres, black and
colored Velvets and Plushes, black and
fancy Silks will be offered at tho lowest
closing out prices.
Don't forget our Curpets and Rugs?just
the thing for Christmas presents.
Thousands of yards of dark Winter
Calicoes will be disposed of at 2Jc a yard.
A big bargain in Sea Islands and Canton
Flannels at Sic a yard.
Another invoice of Ladies' Fine Under
vests at 50c each.
200 more Bustles to be sold at, a dime.
No end to the Pins!?3 papers for 5c.
New lot of Jerseys, in all colors, at 75c
only.
Ladies, come and see the pretty Straw
Hat??, in new shapes, at only 25c each.
They won't last long at such a price.
For Misses and Children we have a beau?
tiful lot of Jackets, Hoods and Caps, which
we are anxious to close out before the sea?
son is over.
We have reduced the prices of our Cloaks
and Wraps to such a figure that every
Lady can afford to obtain one or more of
our handsome styles.
In Ladies' and Children's Shoes we can
beat the world! We keep only the best
make, and sell at a close profit.
"I want a Suit, too," is a frequent remark
in our Store. No wonder the gentlemen
appreciate our fine stock of Clothing, which
we offer much below regular Clothing
Store prices; it is a side-show with us, but
we sell lots of Suits and Overcoats. Why ?
Because they are the cheapest in Town,
FOR CHRISTMAS !
The grandest stock of pretty Christmas
Cards ever displayed! Come all and pick
your choice! We will sell them at half |
what you used to pay !
Make it a
to go to the New York Cash Store for
everything, and 10 to 1 you will find it.
Our Store is crowded with buyers.
