New assortment ladies' belt pins and side combs at Horton, Burgess & Co.'s. It is reported that a farmer in Salem re cently sold thirteen acres of tobacco in the field for gl,300; One hundred dollars an acre for a growing crop is a profitible busi ness, much more so than the shipment of waterrmelon'i by some of our Summerton farmers. We are told that a prominent Summerton farmer shipped a carload of melons and the returns brought hin out $11.40 in debt to the commission merchant. Ask Hon. J. D. Cnntey if this is not true. "Yellow Leaf-'smoking tobacco is the best to be had 10 cents plug at Brockington. It is reported that the negroes had a meeting last Friday at Liberty Hill church and that they have decided to have a pri mary election to put out candidates for the constitutional convention.

A correspondent of the Columbia State from Oakland, a province in the republic of the Fork said that an op position ticket would be put out in the general election in this county. He seemed to be very confident about the mat tr. This correspondent may have the ear of the leaders who met at Liberty Hill re eently. If our memory is not djficient, the Fork has not given the regular Democratic ticket a majority since 1889. and inay give an opposition ticket considerable sup. prt this year. However, the Fork is not the whole of the county, and Liberty Hill can be thrown in for good measure, and hen the regular nominated Democratic ticket will win with a beautiful majority. BLOCKING THE SIDEWALKS. Profane Language Used by Street Corner Loafers. The town council's attention is called to the number of idlers that loiter about the street corners and block up the sidewalk on Boyce street about the business houses. It is very often the case that ladies will not attempt to pass through this crowd of idlers when they want to do shopping in some of the stores. Then some of these loiterers, if not blocking the side walk, are leaning against the fences or store-fronts, and indulge in all kinds of oaths and language unfit for ladies and children to hear ; besides that they run in and out of alley-ways - some of them playing and some of them throwing bricks, bottlea and other missiles. Last Satuiday one of them threw a bottle from out of an alley, which came very near doing serious damage to a gentleman and his horse. Sunday morning a crowd of boys con gregated at McLeod's corner, and their load guffaws and otherwise boisterous con duct was similar to their behavior at a base ball game. The. council should see to it that the police put a stop to these things. NO DOCTORS' BILL. Charleston, S.
