Mr. Alfred D'Anonna. of Chicago. who has been visiting his father-in-law's family, left yesterday for his home. How about thit pair of spectacles you are needing so bad ? Now is your time to get them at Brockinton's. We will from time to time give our read ers snoh information as we can gather from the tobacco journals on the subject of to bacco eultivtvion. If von want an early garden plant Wood's Premiim Tested garden seed. It. B. Lory, a. the druggist. There is only one way to make a town grow and that is to lay aside selfish'ness and all pull together for. the common good. Will not ont people do this?

Loryca, the druggist. bupervisor Felde has been at work all day to-dav ascertainr:g the anonnt the county owes for tie fiscal vc.:r 189--5, and be boastfully says that he will pay dollar for dollar and have a surplus of $150.00. This is tirst-class management, Mr. Super visor, and we tip our hat to you and your board of counsemlors. Wood's Premine Tested seed are the best for the South. We have the agency for these seed, R. B. Loryea, the dlruggist. If there are any .parties wishing to have their fruit trees and grape vines trimmed, or if they wish any grafting or budding dpne, Mr. J. R. B. Hodge, of Alcoln, will do this work in a first class manner. Mr. Hodge is a one-armed Confederate soldier and any work of this kind will be great'y appreciated by him. Drop him a card at Alcolu. For writing paper, pens and ink, at the lowest prices, go to Brockinton's. There is some person who seems to have nothing bette-r for his idle hands to do than to write ithy and obscene matter on the notices int the lobby of the postoffice. The postmaster will take pleasure in prose cuting to the full extent of the law, the person, if he can be found out. The rten alty for this sort of thing is severe, an.1 if the party is caught, he may rest assured that it will be visited upon him. Preserve your sight by having your eyes properly fitted with a p*air of "Crvstal Lenses." Spectacles or eyeglasses. R. B. Loryea, the druggist, next to my old stand. The tobacco warehouse matter is being talked again and we hope it will not wind itself up in talk as it did last year. A to bacco warehouse is a .necessity and it should be- built. The merchants are the ones to build it as they tare the ones to be benefitted. The cost of building a ware house and that of rranning it is a mere bagatelle when compared to the amount of trade it brings to the mnerchants. Don't let this matter drop, but agitate it until the work is accomplished. The place to build the warehouse is at the depot, most con venient to the buyers, and by having it there, our farmers wi get what is saved from draving put on the price of the tobaC co. Some think that everybody should contribute towards the building of the warehouse au:1 that unless all contribute none shouid. We hope such an idea will be brushed away by our enterprisin;; bnsi ness men. Becausd there are d.onss among us is no reason why the prosperity of the town should be stifled. A tobacco warehouse is a business enterprise. It has no sentiment ab'out it. and if there is a de sire to capture the trade that rightfully , .an naturally behngs here. but is goime ewh'-re for lack of accommnodationis and a market, our merchatnts who realizes such a condition will set about at once to rem e dy the matter for their own interests. REHOBOTHI SPARKS. Rehoboth, S. C., Feb. 16.-We have closed up our school at Reho both and ready to go back to Salem again. We learned the other day that a little son of Mr. W. N. Coker, of the Sandy Grove section. was shot from ambush after dark. the shot taking effect in the leg. No reason was giv en for the shooting. It seems that the Star is anxious to know what our junior Senator will do at the Chicago convention this vear. We can assure that journal 'that Senator Tillman will not be apt. to abuse his power or influence, but will be found working for the masses. It was said during the last campaign that Tillman would not be noticed in, the Senate. He (Tillman) said at Kingstree, "I will make them notice me, boys," and it seems that he has received more attention than any other Southern Senator. Now. if the free silver substitute passes the Lower House will "Boss" Grover sign it ? Well, if he does not. I would not be in his shoes for his stockings. Who will be the next President, Sherman, Quay, Voor - hees, Hill, McKinley, Stuart, or Till man. We do not know, but believe that the next President will be a free silver Republican. We are pleased to see that Speaker I. B. Jones has been promoted. as we believe him to be a deserving man. It appears that the Legislature is doing some active wvork. Well, go ahead, fellows, the convention left you plenty to do. News is very scarce down here. The dry spell has at last been broken, the water courses are up. Measles have somewhat subsided around here. The health is about as .,cual. SA3I TATTLERI. SUMMERTON POSTOFFICE CASE Dr. B. M. Badger Appointed Post imaster. T~ehaniruenof r.J.
