will not put prices any lower than

rather keep up prices ?

Van Wyck has been receiving
some congratulations from '.lie
' press, since .Judge Van Wyck has
been elected mayor over Greater
New York. Our little village got
its name directly from this dis'
tinguished family. General Hoke,
who was president of the G.

located, married a sister of Judge
Van Wyck and our station was
named in honor or complimentary

?A. Glasser, a yonng Israelite,
who has been in the grocery business
hero for sometime past, surprised
every body by selling out
on Wednesday evening last and

He left as a token of remember1
ance several small debts ranging
from $6.00 to $10.00.
[ ?The cotton honse of Mr. J. R
Thompson, of Riverside, which

origin of the fire in not known,

caused by rats with a match.
No Interest Account.
Governor Kllerbe is very much
delighted that thu Statu has not
had to pay anv interest this year.
' Although the finances of the State
'at one tim" were exceedingly low,

J merman arranged so that there
j would have to bo no loan. Now
that taxes are coming in, their

Fault Finding.
One of the easiest, things n. the
world is to find fault with other
people. The least thing they do
which seems eontrarv to our wuv
"J '
i v.*e are ready to cot alter them,
i I>111 how (liiiicult it is to see our
: own faults; to understand our
I weak points anil to remember
i that as we see faults in others,
j they see faults as bad and per!
haps worse, in us. Let us be charj
itablo and do as the groat artist
who painted the picture of his
i monarch, upon whose brow there
j was a scar, lie placed his king
with elbow resting on a table and
his supported on his hand, hut
with finger covering the scar. Let
us endeavor to place the finger of
charity over the scars of God's
Children.?The Baptist Enquirer.
Plllfrlm Good Cheer.
Game was brought in from the
woods in abundance,from venison
whieh they know well how to
roast, to the partridge, which is
never so good as when broiled on
the skewer. And, above all, they
had the turkey, of which they
found "a great store'Mn the forest
?the turkey thus early crowned
queen of their bounty, and to
which example their descendants,
even though they may have failed
to imitate them in other respects,
have always been loyal.
These savory meats all garnished
their tables throughout that festival.
Kettles, skillets and spits
were overworked,whilo thus their
knives and spoons, kindly assisted
by their fingerB, made merry
music on their pewter plates.
Nor were these viands without
: the company of the barley loaf
and the cakes of Indian meal,
more highly prized then than
I wheat fed millions can imagine.

New Development in Cotton.
i Mr. K. 1). Thompson, of Point,
| has sent the linrprrer a samplo
stalk from his pot acre of cotton,
together with the following letter
of explanation:
1 This is the stalk from which
ll. limb I scnf vou a few davs
ago \v;i- < ut. At the time it was
pulled up, there were on it 76
(grown bolls, and had it not been
pulled up, I am sure that it would
have matured that many more. If
i you will examine t he stalk closely,
I you will notice that the bolls of
i cotton grew from the limbs after
j the limbs had been formed. This
! is something peculiar. Usually,
(the bud forms on the end of tho
| limb, and the limb grows on past
to form another hud while the
first is developing. All through
my cotton, however, I have
noticed full grown bolls along
the I'mbs at regular intervals
with half grown bolls between. I
i have been a close observer of cot*
for iiO years, and this is n devel
ment that is entirely new to me."
