on* *to the publisher, advrrtlylnK rifles are made known to Enteredat the jKmtottiee at Fort iiill. inose 01 our people wno have bee.i trading away from home should consider the following questions which a Joplin, Mo., druggist put to his people recently: Who sympathized with you when your little girl was sick? it Sears & Roebuck? Who carried you last winter when you were out of a job and had no money? Was it Montgomery, Ward & Co., or was it your home merchant? When you want to raise money ior the church or for some needy person in town, do you write to the Fair store in Chicage, or do you go to your home merchant? How much does Siegel, Cooper & Co. give towards keeping up sidewalks or paying the minister's salary? When you were sick how many nights did Hibbard, Spencer, Rarlett & Co. sit up with you? When your loved one was buried, was it your home mer-1 chant who dropped the tear of j sympathy and uttered the cheering word, or was it Marshall Field & Co? Newspaper Subscription Laws. i .. Few readers or publishers of '/~ papers fully or clearly under- j |& .stand the laws governing subscriptions. The decisions of the United States courts are: '1. Subscribers who do not srive exnress nntien tn tVu? rr?n_ irary are considered as wishing : to renew their subscriptions. 2. If the subscribers order the I discontinuance of their periodical the publisher may continue to send it until all arraerages are paid. 1 3. If the subscribers neglect { or refuse to take their periodiI cals from the post office to which I they are addressed, they are reel Sponsible until they have settled ^ their bills and ordered them dis- j continued. ? 4. If subscribers move to other j places without informing the publisher and the paper is sent to the former address, they are held responsible. 6. Tne courts have decided j that refusing to take periodicals from the office, or removing and \ leave them uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of fraud. j 5. If the subscribers pay in advance they are bound to give, notice at the end of the time, if the^ dp not wish to continue1 ^ - teking it, otherwise the. publisher j is authorized to send it and the ... subscriber will be responsible un' til express notice, with payment of all arrearages, is sent in to the ??&/ publisher. NThe latest postal laws are such that newspaper publishers can cause the arrest of any one for fraud who takes a paper and refliooa tn nnif TT.~-3 - ? Auova iv/ ^Jay iv/l 11.

Spartan Mill Hospital. Speaking of hospitals, we see from the Spartanburg Herald tha* the Spartanburg Mill of that city has just completed a magnificant hospital, which will occupy a three-story building, with all modern conveniences, including a library, reading rooms, a lecture room, and bath rooms. In connection with it, it is proposed to have a training school as well as a sanitarium, and in the hospital, charity work will come first of all, and an order for a trained nurse, where there is no money to pay for the services, will be giyen attention in preference to those who are able and willing to pay for such services. Some of the best physicians in the city are connected with it, and the president of the mill, Mr. W. S Mnnforimoi-v lvou given valuable arid substantial aid in its erection.?Newberry Herald and News. pother Victim of Pickpockets. Mr. Baxter Laney, son of Mr. Wallace Laney, of Buford township, lost $61 by pickpockets while attending the fair at Charlotte last week. The pickpockets were very much to the front there, but from the reports they were little worse than the fakirs fhat the fair licensed. It is odd that the people who hold fairs in i North Carolina consider it necesi sary to have on hand a crowd of I toughs to rob people.?Monroe I Journal. I? Messrs. M. L. Hope, J. M. fll Barks and M.

The j 3 total number of receipts issued '( up to yesterday morning was 8 398. t< Tfie gin of Messrs. McGill j p Bros., at Bethany, had a narrow j escape from fire last Wednesday jy afternoon. The origin of tne S( fire is thought to have come a through the elevator. Within j 2 a few moments after it was ^ discovered it filled the entire jy interior of the ginnery; but jy prompt use of water and the fire j, extinguishing steam pipes, aided j by the metal sides and top of jy the gin building served to hold j. the flames in check. The dam- j age was very insignificant. Mr. Henry Wilds was killed F on Mr. H. E. Johnson's place six a miles northeast of Yorkville last ft Tuesday by being crushed under F a tree. Mr. Wilds and other 1 tl laborers were engaged in felling j d trees for lumber. In fellinj^a ! T large tree became entangled in j ii the upper branches in such a j I way that the trunk, was twisted ft "Ut of what would have seemed tl its natural course. The butt of tree struck ftlr. Wilds in the face and knocked him down. He fell under the tree and it came down across his stomach. He n lived about an hour afterward, c G Rock Hill IJeraltl.
