SHORT LOCAL ITEMS.
(ittOii'retl from City mid County for l.oil-
Urr ItriulaTM.
Ttie many friends of Miss Hattie
Wood arc jjlad to know she is almost
well again after a long protracted and
severe illness.
John Alexander has moved his
beer house into the building known
as the “warehouse,” in the rear of
John C. Lipscomb.
Marvin Clarkson, a brother to ge
nial Tom, is working for (>. K. Wil
kins «fc Itro. Mr. Clarkson is fast
making friends in (Jatlney.
The many friends of Mr. Albert
Lipscomb will he glad to learn that
he has so far recovered from his re
cent illness as to be able to be out
again.
A marriage will take place shortly j
in this city in which one of (ialTney’s j
most beautiful and accomplished
daughters will play one of the princi
pal roles.
Misses Eloise Wilkins and Katie
Hamilton are clerking for J. W.
Tolleson. With two sucli charming
assistants as these Mr. Tolleson
should be enabled to build up a
nourishing business.
John (Jatlney, a colored youth, ;
was arrested yesterday afternoon for i
entering the house of Mrs. Alice j
Sarratt and stealing a lot of house- |
hold goods. He was given a hearing |
this mofning before Mayor Littlejohn.
Col. Sam Jefferies had the misfor
tune to have one of his hands pain
fully injured last week. He was work
ing around his gin when his hand
came in contact with the machinery
and was lacerated. Mr. Jefferies has
lost none of his vitality, however, and
moves around with a sprightliness
that would be a credit to a much
younger man.
There were quite a number of peo
ple in the. city yesterday in attend
ance upon court. This is the second
week of court and on account of there j
being no civil cases tried at the last !
term the docket was quite heavy, j
T he criminal business was completed |
last week and this week will be de- |
voted to civil cases tbut are to be j
tried by jury.
The infant daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Will (iibson died Sunday. The
little waif has not enjoyed the best
of health since its mother died sov- |
eral weeks ago and the Architect of !
the universe has deemed it best to
take it home to join mother. May
the bereaved father and nil who have
so tenderly cured for it be enabled by
grace to say “Thy will be done.”
Judge Buchanan attended services
at the Presbyterian church Sunday
morning and at the First Baptist
church in the evening. Ho was ac
companied by Clerk of the Court
Jefferies on both occasions. The 1
judge expressed himself as being par- ;
ticularly well pleased with the music j
at both churches, and especially J
Holden’s “O Kaluturis Hostia,” as
rendered by Miss Minnie Carroll at
the Baptist church in the evening.
Miss Carroll’s exquisite voice has
seldom shown to better advantage
than it did on this occasion.
Do You Waul to Extend
The Purchasing Power
of your dollar to the utmost limit? Then come to The Fair. We cannot raise your salary or
increase the price of what you raise to sell, but we can do you a lot of good when it comes to
making the money you have to spend go as far as possible. We buy and sell for cash only.
We have found that our dollar is worth more than any merchant’s credit, and so in our store
your dollar is worth more than any man’s credit, and you get the benefit of prices that no
house that sells on credit can afford to give.
I O oocl*s.
Of dress goods at little prices we have interesting news to tell. A large purchase of new
goods to help a manufacturer keep on his feet brings some rare values to be shared during
these early fall dress-making days. Good and lustrous black fabrics, and a multitude of ex
quisite novelties that will soon be made into garments of beauty and durability. These goods
were made for this season’s selling and the colors are most desirable. Some are plain; others
are fancy. All are splendid values for right away making. Prices are way down.
Is $2 on the price of a cape worth saving? Cape wants, present and prospective, may
be filled from our cape stock at just such a saving. And not an old or undesirable garrnen
in the lot. All new beauties conjured for this season’s selling. Ask to see our ^9c. cape.
We know of no other store that carries so large a stock, or buys in such large quantities,
as we. We know of none who carry so many shapes, \vidths, sizes and styles, or so many
kinds and prices. We buy in two car load lots and at prices that place us beyond competition.
Nobody can meet our shoe prices.

Mr. ItolicrtMoii VYitlidruuit HU lt<'Ki|;iiatinii.
The many friends in this city and
vicinity of the Kev. B. l\ Robertson
will bo delighted to learn that he lias,
after mature deliberation, withdrawn
his resignation and has consented to
serve the church with which he has
been so long identified for a while |
longer. Mr. Robertson’s detcr.nina- |
tion is indeed a fortunate one for his ;
church, especially at this particular
period. He has done much to pro- j
mote the interest of the church, and
has been the prime factor in the
building of the handsome new edifice
now under course of construction
and his resignation, while a distinct
loss to the church at any time, would
have been almost a calamity at this
critical period. Weil may the church
be congratulated on the decision that
Mr. Roherfeon has arrived at, and we
feel that it will redound to the ulti
mate good of the church.
