Oliver Greer Tvecuted.
(?liverGreer, tl?? young negro who
was convicted at tho February term of
Court for criminally assaulting a mai
den lady near Belton on the Hh of last
December, paid the penalty ot Iiis
crime last Friday morning, thu day
M ilich the Court set apart lor him to be
banged.
The morning dawned bright and
clear, there was quite a crowd from tho
couutry in the city, and Sherill' Green
had hundreds ot applications lor per
mits to see the execution, hut lui con
fined himself to the number limited by
law.
About 10 o'clock a very largo crowd,
both white and black, old and young
bad gathered in (he street facing thu
jail, but the Anderson Rifles had buen'
ordered out and were on guard duty,
and they had very little trouble in
keeping the people out of the jail yard.
The gallows had been erected in tho
rear of the jail and was concealed from
the public view by a very high plank
fence, which had been erected espe
cially for the occasion. The best of
order prevailed, and .Sherill'Green was
very successful in all the plans ar
ranged for the unpleasant duty he hail
to perform.
Kev. O. J. Copeland, who had fre
quently visited tho prisoner, spent a
short while in his cell, after hu had
.been dressed for the occasion, talked
?with and read a few Scriptural lessons
to him. The poor negro did not seem
tobe excited, was, indeed, very eool
and calm, android .Mr. Copeland that
he was guilty of thu crime, deserved
his punishment, and was willing and
ready to meet death.
At 11 o'clock Sheri IF Green, accom
panied by his Deputies, entered Greer's
cell, rend the death warrant to him,
brought him out into the corridor and
placed tho black lobe upon him. From
there he was lead out of the door ami
right up the steps to tim platform sur
'Hiding the gallows, where tho phy
f chins and few witnesses stood. The
prisoner walked with a steady, linn
step, with the Deputies on each side of
him, and seemed less nervous or ex
cited than nuy other person on the
platform. Indeed, his coolness und
?elf composure was remarkable, and
he did not exhibi? the least, hit of emo
tion.
Sherill'Green asked tho prisoner if lu;
had anything to say. "No, sir, noth
ing," he replied in alow tone.
Mr. Copeland then snid: "Oliver,
you can state if you are trendy.to die,
can't you?" "Yes, sir, I am ready to
die, and 1 believe luy sins are forgiven,""
he replied. "Are you trusting in the
Saviour?" Mr, Copeland asked. "Yes,
sir," he replied, "I am trusting in Him
alone."
Sherill' Green pulled tho black cap
over tho uegro's taco and moved him
backward until hu stood on tho center
of tho trap. The noose was then ad
justed about his neck and his feet
bound together. Mr. Copeland ottered
n most fervent1,- eloquent four-miuuto
prayer for the negro, and ns he uttered
"Amen" Sheriff Green, who had gone
down to tho bottom stop, stepped on
the trigger, tho trap fell and the ne
gro's body fell about six feet. There
was only a very slight drawing up of
tho body, ns if drawing a long breath,
and it apparently hung lifeless from
that moment. His neck was broken by
thu tall, und in eight minutes thu phy
sicians could not detect a beat of tho
pulse and pronuouced him dead. Tho
body was taken down, placed in a neat
collin and turned over to his mother
and other relatives, who carried it to
Helton for burial.
Greer was about 18 years of age,
about 0 feet tall, weighed probably 100
pounds aud was a puru negro. Iludid
not have a repulsive countenance and
possessed moro intelligence perhaps
.. than tho average negro. Ho could
read and write, and on tho morning of
jhis execution wrote a letter to his
^mother, which he gave to Mr. Copeland
to deliver. Tho following is a copy of
jtbe letter, with the correction of some
?of his spelling:
'.Oliver Greer, To my Dear Mother,
"Sally Greer.
Anderson Jail, March 14, 1002.
"Oh dear and loving mother : Please
don't grieve after me for I am paying
?tho penalty due me for the crime l
committed. Tell them all not to grieve
for mo. I am ready to die nnd leave
the world. I will soon bu in heaven
.now. Kev. Parker and Bro. Rutledge
and Bro. Pinckney and the whito min
isters of the Gospel have been very
kind to mo. And Jesus, tho son of
God, has saved my soul from thu end
less death. Oliver Greer.

Every Miller had the Opportunity.
Nearly ?ll milln mndepure Flour before
tim Anti-Adulteration I.eugue wita or
ganized. Tue League wau organized wheu
the adulteration of Flour first began, and
waa designed to stop lt in Us ioclpienoy.
Every miller in the United States waa in
vited to join the League, but the fact that
he had to make oath that he never had
and never would adulterate his Flour,
und, in addition, had to put up a forfeit of
91000 to atreugtheu his oath, caused a
large number to hesitate and, finally, to
decline. Bransford Mills, manufacturer
of the "Clifton," waa among the first to
join, because it never had and never ex
pected to adulterate ita Flour. IB not
such a stund worth considering when you
buy Flout with which to feed your chil

Si?iEMEn im
WE are showing for Spring the greatest aggregation of choice Merchan
chandise that this Store has ever displayed. Wc have visited the market
twice already this year, searching for the choicest, newest things to bo had,
and with untiring energy to get hold of the best things at the lowestini?.imc?a
prices for our customers. We can unhesitatingly state that for good, depend*
able merchandise, at economical prices, it will be to your interest to select this
as your trading Store for the Spring. Our interests are mutual. We don't
offer you something for nothing, but we do promise you full value for ?very
cent spent with us. Reasonable people don't expect or want any more. Scores
of our friends tell us, "We like to deal with yon, because we find your goods
reliable/' That is the way we like to make friends, for we find they aro per
manent customers when we get them along that line. We are not satisfied
unless our business grows. We are well organized in every department to
serve your best interest, and without any great hurrah 'wo beg that everyone
coming to the city will give us a showing.
This is geing to be pre-eminently a light, thin, airy season for
LADIES' WEARS.
That means abundance of Wash Goods, Light Silks, etc., are going to be used.
Our early insight into the market in January enabled us to get the choicest
selection of Wash Goods that we have ever shown. Not only in < olorcd fab
rics, but in White Goods as well. Our showing of Wash Fabrics from 5 to
50 cents a yard will claim the admiration of ever? lady who looks at our
stock. At 8,10, 12* and 15 centd we show an extraordinary attractive line
with all the style of the 50 cents patterns. In reality, this is where we lay our
great stress.
SILKS.
Most everyone indulges in Silks th- se limes. Why not, it is the queen of
dress lubrica, and nothing takes their plac?. We have them in the lowest
priced qualities, but from 50 to 75 cents we surpass ourselves. It will pay you
to make our store a visit to see them. In Black Taffetas we don't believethere
is a store in South Carolina that sells as much. Good quality, yard wide at
90 cents, good yard-wide Swiss Taffeta, soft and durable, at 81.00 per yard.
Yard-wide, guaranteed Swiss Taffeta, sold all over thi9 country at $1.50 our
