He is survived by a son, Mr. T. W. Clawson, who for a year or more has been engaged in the gold miding business in the upper part of this township. The remains were interred in Evergreen cemetery, Chester. General Postal Information. Postmaster B. H. Massey has received from the department a supply of the new edition of the pamphlets of general postal information, and, according to requirement, is supplying each teacher in the public ana private schools within the delivery of his office with a copy. The purpose of the pamphlet is that the teachers may be given a more thorough knowledge of the postal laws and requirements and to instruct their pupils along these lines. A supply of printed cards showing the proper method of addressing letters has also been received, and these, too, are being distributed among the patrons of the office. A great many people, either through ignorance or carelessness, fail to properly address their mail, and as a result more than thirteen million pieces of mail matter were * i 3VE ?3 | SPRING GOODS, fj! f\\ newest styles and ||| LLENERY III specially attractive, si! irely new arrange || i can furnish you it about half the i;| I or-yourself. j|| 4SSEY.

As pointed out by ; the cards, if every patron of the postoffice would use ink in addressing mail matter, writing plainly the name of the person addressed, with the street and number, postoffice and State, and I place their name and address in the upper left hand corner of , the envelope or package, there i would be a great falling off in j the receipts of mail at the dead letter office. .

More Foreigners at Grattan. -n * % i v-um iui it? uuat*rver,T riuj\y. J A party of 10 Poles, under the J leadership of Apton Varcholik, ?spent yesterday in the city en route from New York toGrattan, where they will work for Mr. S. S. McNinch at the plant of the Charlotte Brick Company. J The strangers, in their uncouth ' garb, with heavy, ruddy faces . and rough, muscular forms, ex- ' cited considerable comment as they wandered about the streets : yesterday. A few could speak | English fairly well while others i were fresh from the old country. Their communications were mostly "yea, yea," and "nay, nay," except when they desired to talk with one another. The 12-story Realty Building did not arouse their curiosity in the least. They gazed at it once or twice, passed a few words evidently of comparison with the surroundfng structures and they passed on. In the party aside from Anton Varcholik, were Paul Ilodem, John Urbansky, Mike Kolson, Daniel Blousky, Ludwig Placak, Paul Kusmier, Waryl Ladowsky, Mike Spodarck and Grbriel Botz. Thpv WAnt n .U:?L ? --"J ? vita VII kV uiuiiail, WHICH is just below Fort Mill, S. C., yesterday afternoon and will commence loading brick in freight cars today. There are several of the for- j eignerswhom Mr. McNinch se| cured from New York two years ago still at the brick plant. They are said to make good hands owing to their willingness to work. They are quiet, even tempered and save their money. The men are strong and the work does not tell on them. These latest recruits will be put to loading brick, which is regarded as about the hardest work about! the plant. Few negroes can be ; secured to do this and hence Mr. j McNinch's importation of help from the North. Newspapers Doomed to Lose. The following paragraph from an exchange is too near the truth and too good to be passed over: "It costs a country newspaper i money every time it takes a i stand on any question. Almost i any citizen besides a newspaper man can do so without injuring his business. If the editor advocates improvements the soreheads go after him and some times stop their paper. If he j ] opposes improvements the pro[ gressive sort gets on him and : calls him a back number and a ' j knocker. If he publishes politics the opposition gets into his hair, and if he does not he is charged with being afraid to stand out for his own opinion. If : he condemns mail nrrtar Jinnuoa ' ; there are some people who ask | him to attend to his own business, as they have a right to | trade where they please. If he I publishes mail order ads some of | the merchants are after his gore, j No country paper can come out i squarely without making ene| mies and losing money, and in the run of a year or more will incur some criticism from nearly ! everybody. The newspaper that ; undertakes to please everybody I will please nobody; if it is hon,] est a.-.d sincere and thoughtful, the public will respect it" teitii . ?n2JLi , ggg Pleasant Valley. i ??~ [S.

Bailes are each operating a sawmill plant and we understand that they are finding a ready sale for their fine lumber. Mr. W. R. Bradford went to Chester today to hear the lecture of J.
