LuBt Friday morning Mr. Thomas H.
Palmer committed suicide at his home on
Calboun street by cutting his throat with
a razor, almost severing his head from his
bodv. For some time Mr. Palmer had
beer, clerking for Ligon & Ledbetter, but
had been sick and confined to his home
for two or three weeks. He was, however,
convalescing and able to be up again. On
Friday morning be ate bis breakfast and
spoke of going out and attempting to do a
little work In bis garden. Tbe members
of the family objected to this and begged
him to remain in tbe house, telling htm
that by taking good care of himself he
would soon be well again. About 9 o'clock
be walked out into tbe yard and in a few
minutf s two ladles, who happened to be
passing, saw him stagger and fall to tbe
ground. They ran to the house and noti
fied <;he family and immediately went to
the unfortunate man. A physician was
sent for, but in less time than it takes to
write it Mr. Palmer was beyond human
aid Since the death of his wife a year ago,
he was very despondent, and it Is supposed
that '.bis despondency, with his feebleness
and other troubles, hud caused a temporary
aberration of the mind, which caused him
to end his life. He. bad long been a devoted
member of tbe Cedar Grove Method lat
Chuicb, in the Fork, where his remains
were Interred on Sunday. We can endorse
every word of tbe noble tribute paid tbe
deceused in another column by our Fork
correspondent. He leaves one son and
one daughter to cherish the memory of a
devoted father.
Major Ira W. Williams died at his home
in Belton at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Only a short while before that time he ap
p^ared to be in the enjoyment of his usual
good health and his death was an event of
8Uddenne9B and unexpectedness. Return
ing from a visit in town, he ate dinner
with considerable relish and took a seat
upon the piazza. ?o a few minutes he
complained of feeling unwell and was seen
to fall from his chair in evident distress,
and, notwithstanding, prompt medical
attention, he died almost immediately, the
cause assigned being dispase of tbe heart,
sympt?me of which had been manifested
to some extent on one or two former
occasions. Major Williams was in the
77th year of his age. He was born in the
White Plains section of this county, and
during the earlier yeais of hiB life followed
the occupation of a tailor, wbich more lat
terly gave place to farming. He waB
twice married, his firBt wife having been
a daughter of the late Allen Williams, of
Williamston; the seoond Miss Mary Mc
David, who survives him. He has no
children or other immediate relatives now
l?"ing Major Williams has been a citizen
of Belton for about forty years, during
which time he bas endeared himself to the
population of his community by kindly
manners and upright habits, and ht.s
proven himself a man of commendable
life and substantial worth Tup. funeral
services will be conducted at 3 30 o'clock
this afternoon by Ruv Earle in the Belton
Methodist Church, of which the deceased
was a faithful and consistent member.
Last Monday morning abont 10 o'clock
Mrs Lillie Barr Collins, wife of Mr. J H.
Collins, died suddenly at her home in this
city. She was apparently in her usual health
that morning, and had not long returned
from a walk, having accompanied her huii
band part of the way to his place of buslnesu.
Shortly after she returned home, at tbe
reqiiPHt of her nister, she went to her room
on the second floor to get nome patterrm.
She did not return promptly, and, after
waiting patiently for some time, the sister
called her, but received no response. The
latter then ascended the stairway and when
I she entered the room she was horrified to j
find her sister lying on the floor in front of
her dressing-case with one drawer open.
She raised her bead tenderly and called to
her, bntthe lips did not move. The fright
ened sister screamed and attracted the other
members of tbe honsehold, Streetoverseer
Lee, wbo was having some work done on
Whltner street, opposite the house, heard
the screams and immediately ran to tbe
honseand sent a messenger for Dr. Nardin,
who arrived at the home in a very short
time and did every thing possible to revive
her, bnt bis efforts proved futile, for death
had claimed its victim. Mra. Collins was
the eldest daughter of the late W. F. Barr,
and was in the 26th year of ber age. Her
death is a very sad one. Abont three years
ago her mother died, and last August the
devoted father was called from time into
eternity. She was married to Mr. Collins
just fonr months ago and now as a young
bride she has gone to join ber devoted
parents In that better land. She possessed
a gentle, loving;disposition, and had a wide
circle of friends, who are deeply bereaved
at ber death. Since ber childhood she bad
been a member of the Presbyterian Cbnrch,
and always took an active part in its work.
On Tuesday afternoon her remains were
laid to rest beside those of her parents in
tbe Presbyterian churchyard, the funeral
services being conducted by the pastor,
Rev. J. N. H. Summerell.
Last Thursday from early morn until
after the midnight hour the spacious estab
lishment of Messrs Brown, Osborne & Co.
was orowded with their numerous friends
and customers, all of whom had been in
cited to attend the grand Sprlog opening
of this live, enterprising firm. Extensive
preparations had been made for tbe occa
sion, and to say that it was a big success
but feebly expresses it. It was late in tbe
afternoon when we strolled around to tbe
main entrance of the establishment, and
the first thing that caught our eye were
the large show windows, which had been
beautifully and tastefully arranged for the
occasion. We entered and were cordially
greeted by tbe courteous salesmen, who
Boon ushered us to one of tbe elver pro
prietors, and as we began to view the
many beautiful goods of all sorts and all
colors, which were suspended from the tall
ceiling and racks, arranged in such artistic
style, we were almost bewildered and felt
as if we were in a little paradise. The
ladies thronged tbe counters, and all of tbe
salesmen and saleswomen were bUBy show
ing tbe many new novelties of tbe large
and magnificent stock. The variety dis
played was so varied that every fancy
could be gratified. As we elbowed our
way around, a sweet little miss was seated
at the piano, about midway of tbe dress
poods department, and entertained the
crowd with some fine selections of music.
On every side, could be heard tbe excla
mations of "oh, how beautiful!" "how
cheap!" from tbe fair ladies as their eyes
wandered to and fro through tbe beautiful
display. Ascending the stairway to the
second floor, our ears caught the sweet
strains of music from the Anderson Or
chestra, which was sitting in tbe lovely
reception room, arranged especially for tbe
friends and customers of the firm, wbo
will make it a permanent feature of their
establishment by keeping it open all tbe
time. Hero we met Mine Spaulding, the
accomplished milliner, who has fust re
cently arrived from New York She very
courteously ushered us through the de
partment, and .showed us the many new
novelties and artistic creations in tbe way
of bats and bonnets, and shapes and trim
mings. We noticed one (a poke in shape,)
of nacie straw, trimmed in green mirrored
velvet, shaded roses and black plumes
quaint au it was pretty. The manilla sail
ors also attracted much attention; also a
small hat, unique in shape, trimmed taste
fully in umbra ribbon, in shades of pink
and green and lace ears. There were
others with brims of horse hair lace, and
crowns of spangled net and lace over satin
in Tarn O'Sbanta effect. There were a
variety of flowers, plumes, ornaments and
ribbons in Persian and Dresden designs.
The dress making department is also on
this floor and is in charge of Madame
Flender, a French modiste from New York.
The decorations on this floor were beauti
ful, too. Beautiful pictures bung from
the walls and lovely hot house flowers sat
here and there. Light-refreshments were
served to every visitor. Tbe millinery
and dress making departments are new
features in Messrs. Brown, Oaborne & Co.'s
establishment, but they are bound to suc
ceed, for they can now supply every want
of their customers. Take our advice and
visit their place whenever you come to
the city. They wantyou to see their goods.

of pride, and feel like running two miles a rainuto,

As Spring approaches,

And mice and rats,

Do gaily skip about. B. B. 6.

The rapidity with which croup develops

IN THE SPRING
HE great attraction in a Dry Goods Store is pretty Milli
nery and Dress Goods.
In point of MILLINERY we never felt better prepared or
satisfied with the outlook. We are satisfied that our selec
tions were never so wisely made before. We were never be
fore so fortunate in getting hold of the right things at the
right prices. This Department is presided over by Miss
Jennie V. Copper, a Milliner of rare taste and exceptional ex
ecutive ability. We unhesitatingly say there has never been
a finer Trimmer in upper Sou th Carolina. This is not our
verdict alone, but of our customers also. She is assisted by
Mrs. Pearl Allen, Miss Caro Miller and others. We have the
Stock and the people to do the work. Give us all the business
you can in this line ; we will consider notliing as trouble if
you will come to see us. We will re-trim and use your old
material?in fact, will do anytiing in the bounds of reason.
DRESS GOODS.
In this our buyer did not intend to dip so heavity, but
pretty Dress Goods is his hobby. This Department has great
reputation, and to say that it is beyond its former exhibitions
would be saying a great deal. It looks to us as if it is much
more attractive than ever before, but we will let our cus
tomers pass judgment.
FANCY BLACK GOODS are very much worn. We just
could not hold up at the right point ; consequently, you have
an elegant line from which to select. No Lady expecting to
buy a Black Dress, in plain or fancy goods, can afford to pass
our Stock without investigating it. In Fancy Colored Nov
elty Dress Pattern, no two alike, we have a very strong line.
We can pl?ase you in a Dress, sure.
SILKS AND WASH GOODS?This Department is sim
ply a flower-garden of lovelinens, from the lowest priced Silks
to $1.75 per yard, Wash Goods at from 5c. per yard to the
finest French Organdies.
DRESS TRIMMINGS?In Fancy Passamenteries, Garni
tures, Chiffons, Linen Colored Embroideries and Applique Ef
fects. Full line of Dress Limngs and Findings.
We have been running a, Dress Making Department very
successfully for a number of years. The Department is now
in charge of Miss Kanne, who ifi an experienced Dress Maker.
We know what it is to recommend a Dress Maker, and will
simply say that we put our personal guarantee behind every
garment into which she puts; the scissors, and you can deoend
on getting satisfaction from this Department, so let us idave
your work. We appreciate your patronage in any or every
Department, and are always glad for you to come to see us.
Remember, we are in it for the Spring business.
Yours very truly,
