THE STATE PRESS ASSOCIATION. The twenty-fifth annual meeting of the South Carolina State Pre3s Asso ciation was held at Harris Lithia Springs on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of last week, and it was one of the most interesting and profitable meetings ever experienced by the members. From the opening to the close there was not a dull mo ment in its proceedings, and the mem bers who failed to attend missed a royal treat. The meetings were held in the Audi torium, and at the first session Hon. J. _ H. Wharton, one of Laurens County's most estimable citizens and a membei of the Legislature from that County, ini"'behalf"'of Proprietor*Harris and Manager Fox and the good people ol the County, delivered a most cordial and eloquent address of welcome tc the press gang, which was responded to in behalf of the Association by Mr Fitz HughMcMaster, of the Charlestoi Evening Post, and Hon. J. E. Boggs, o: Pickens, an ex-member of the Associa tion, who was called upon by Presi dent Anil. Wednesday morning the Associatioi got down to business in earnest. Ai excellent and interesting progranim had been arranged for the occasion and nearly all the members whoha< been appointed to prepare and rea ' papers on the subjects assigned thei came well prepared to perform thei duty. The subjects, of course, wei only of interest to the journalists, an were handled* in a way that ever I member present received new an practical ideas about journalism. Tl subjects of the interesting pape: brought out other topics, which wei V generally discussed, the members gr mg their experience in various lines < work, covering almost every feature ? a printing office. The sessions conti] ued through the four days, two ai three sessions being held each day. On Thursday night the members - the Association and many of the gues of the hotel gathered around the ba qiiet table in the spacious dining roc ' and partook of the many good thin spread before them. The banquet w served in courses and it was sum tuous. At the conclusion of the banquet t annual address before the Associati was delivered by Col. Pleasant A. S vail, the accomplished editor of 1 Savannah (Ga.) Press, whose subji was "What an Editor Saw and He?' in Mexico.71 Col. Stovall is a m eloquent and pleasing speaker, s having taken an extended trip throi Mexico a short while ago, the subj matter of his address was most ent tai?ing to the large assembly v heard him. The Association on Friday appoin a special committee to arrange f( trip to Cuba next February cu* Mai The Association concluded its w that clay by electing the following < cers to serve the ensuing year : Pr . dent, E. H. Aull, Newberry; V Presidents, N. G. Gonzales, Coluni and J. L. Sims, Orangeburg; Chapl Rev. Sidi H. Browne, Columbia; Se tary. C. C. Langston, Anderson; Tr* urer, August Kohn, Columbia; Ex< . tive Committe, M. B. McSweei Louis Appelt and J. A. Hoyt, sr. The only sad feature of the se6 was parting with our venerable fri' Maj. F. Melchers, of Charleston, hacl faithfully served the Associa as its Treasurer for the past six years. Maj. Melchers has passed three-score years and ten, and oi count of his feeble health decline servo another^tenn. At the ban table Col. J. A. Hoyt, on behalf o: Association, after a few approp remarks, presented Maj. Melche handsome case of spoons as a test nial from his brethren. Maj. Mel< was evidently deeply touched b; pathetic and eloquent words of ^ Hoyt, and in accepting the testim responded briefly.

The Anderson Coan ty Teachers' Normal Institute closed its session last Friday, and the following resolutions were unanimously adopted : "Whereas, we, the teachers of An derson County, are -deeply interested in the-educational advancement of our Comity and State ; and whereas, we feel. thai the surest "way to improve our common schools is to make of ourselves better teachers, and that county nor mal schools reach the teachers of our State most effectively ; therefore be it resolved "1. That we hereby approve of coun ty normals. "2. That our fellow teachers be earn estly urged to attend these schools "3. That we tender our sincere thanks to Prof. Thos. C.

Your scribe-bas got home from the mountains, and now we will proceed to rest. We hear people talking about going to the mountains to rest, but we are here to inform you that it is thc hardest work we ever done climbing steep mountains and going down steep mountains, and we do believe it strains a person worse to go down than it does to go up.

Or to make it clear to you, the house in which we do business has become too small to conveniently accommodate our large and growing trade. Hence we have secured a larger and more desirable house on Granite Kow. Now, we have not for gotten what a job it was four years agc to lug about nine thousand dollars ol stuff up here from our little old place though the back doors were almost touch ing. And how much more of a job wil it be now for us to move over twenty-liv< thousand of Goods clear across the Pub lie Square. We don't want to do it, anc we ain't agoin' to do it. No, we are jus going to make a grab-pile of it, and le our friends and enemies come in an< carry it off for us.

The Tale of a Shirt-49c, Some months ago we lound the best unlaundered Shirt we ever knew with a value of 75c. Taking it as a sample we ordered them made to our liking. The maker refused to consider the order for the reconstructed Shirt except on a basis of 65c. each. We found a Shirt man with an idle factory, ordered enough to keep him busy for weeks. Results: These Shirts gc on sale at 49c. Judge them by the muslin. Judge them by the workmanship or the flt, judge them by any standard you may set-they are worth 75c. The price is 49c. each. A Sale of Stamped Linens. Those of you who enjoy needle work had better take advantage of this chance. There are Linens in this sale that one short month ago would have brought double to-day's price. Art and economy are never so closely linked together as now. Washable Shirt Waists. If there is a more pleasing array of Cotton Shirt Waists for miles around we have not heard of it. We make it our business to find these things out, too. The colorings are beautiful, the workmanship and styles are peerless, and the prices ? Well, if they were not extremely low this Waist section wouldn't be visited by so many ladies. That New Corset. If the Corset doesn't fit there is small chance of the gown possessing that enviable "dressy" hang.
