73* ' TON HBMLD DARLINGTON, 8. C. Wednesday, Dec’ • 7, 1892. Mr. £d<lie Fort, of Goldsboro, N C.j is visiting relatives m town. Read Mr. Bristow's invitation and see if yon are not *.’xpected to be our of the guests at his big Christmas entertainment . The only official land sale on Mon day was a tract containing 127 acres, part of the Chancellor Dargan place, jsold to S. C. C. Richardson of Sum ter. The property of the Chatapion Canning Company was sold by the receiver on Monday and brought con sidering the scarcity of money, fair prices. We call attention to the advertise ment of the New York Advertiser which appears in this weeks issue. It won’t cost anything to get a speci men copy and the premium list Bristow’s is the place for Christ- ihfcs goods, and when yon find out the prices you will think he is jok ing; but just hand over the money and see how quick you will get what you want Ayer’s medicines have been before, the public for a good many years, and this furnishes the strongest proof of their efficacy. Read the ad vertisement which appears in another column. Anybody who wants to buy or rent a house will do well to read the adveitisement of Mr. H. M. Smith, who has some very desirable proper ty to dispose of. One of the houses ’ offered for rent has six acres of land attached. The Cosmopolitan, for December, is superb in every respect, and' pres ents an appetizing array of contents, suitable t6 the taste of all readers. It is profusely and beautifully illustra ted, which adds a great deal to its interest and attractiveness. Taken al- togtber it is a 'fine specimen of the perfection to which some of the monthlies have attained. The price is 3.00 per year, and the office of publication in New York. Our friend Bristow is a good bus iness man and has gumption enough to let people know that he has every thing for Christmas. Give him a call He has all kinds of presents worth from five cents up. Rev. J. E. Carlisle, the new pastor of the Methodist Church, accompa nied by his wife, arrived in town on Tuesday. They were met at the depot and taken immediately to the Parsonage where they were taken in charge by a number of ladies and given a warm welcome. The par sonage had been put in order and looked very homelike and inviting. Mr. Carlisle, is one of the best men in the Conference and the Methodist Church is fortunate in having his services for the coming year. ' Bristow’s Chrismas-goods are so cheap that he must be selling them just for the satisfaction to 1 e deriv ed from seeing people have a good time. He is a good hearted fellow and rather see people happy than to be rich. The manager of the Opera House wishes us to announce that Oliver Taylor, supported by a first class company, will produce bis original play, “The Moonshiners,” on Fri day night, the 9th iust. All the press notices we have seen speak very highly of the “intensely interesting and realistic acting” of this compa ny. They carry nearly a car load of special scenery, and their rendition of ‘The Moonshiners” promises to be the greatest spectacular production ever seen in Darlington. Reserved seats 50cts at Bristow’s Book store. Come one, come all. On Friday night the members of the Legislature were given a Concert at the “College for Women”. The following extract, from the State, will be of interest to the friends of Miss Williamson. The performers were the most ad vanced pupils of the college in addi tion to the musical faculty. Miss Mary Haskell opened the concert with a fine organ piece, Dudley Bucks’ Bpnata in Eb, which at once put it upon a high plane of excellence. Misses Fulkerson and Williamson then captivated the audience with vocal duet, Pinsnti’s Amore. Then Miss Marv Haskell returned to the rostrum taking one of the grand pianos*and Miss Marion Haskell the other, and together they played Kowalski’s magnificent Marck-Hon- groise. The verve and appreciation with which these sisters rendered their piece excited enthusiastic ap plause. Miss Bessie Williamson, the prima donna of the college, then sung Gounod’s serenade. For more than a ! rear Miss Williamson has been charm ng Columbia audiences by her fine singing, but it was the general and decided impression last eveping that sqe surpassed her former efforts, and that the cultivation of qer rare voice was still earned on. She was enthu siastically encored, and was relnct antly persuaded to repeat the last stanza other serenade.—The Slate. AMsigthe Magutaes.

Some of onr wise faftner who are still holding on to their cotton and would not sell last week when they were offered 10c per pound are now losing their brag when they think of having to sell at 6c or perhaps less. Messrs. W. M. Skinner and R. D. Du Boseare very sick. We hope, however, they will soon be up again. Mr. J. M. Fulton has rented his plantation t6 two colored preachers so that if next year is a poor crop year they can pay their store account and rent bnt of their collection for preaching on Sundays. Mr. John K. Crosswell, formerly of this place bnt now traveling salesman for Gambell Man ufacturing Company, of Baltimore, spent a few days last week, at this place and in this neighbor hood, with friends. Dr. J. M. Younge is holding about 100 bales of cotton and was offered 10 l-4c..a few days ago for it all aronnd which he refused. Mr. I. J. Alexander has brought some of the first turnips to this place that we have seen; 18 he says weigh 50 lbs. He also had a very fine water melon here for sale last Satnrday and says that he has several other fine ones at home which are keeping finely. The dry and cold weather is keeping the oat. crop from coming npand what little has come up is looking very poor.

This /viR be his firet attempt to serve his country in an official capacity, and he , has to make his record. Mr. Vanghan received his education at our county schools, and a very brief mercantile career satisfied him ■ that there were hioffe eh viable occupations. He clerked four months, retired to his farm, aqd his success has shown thi$ a wise decision. Another evi dence of his wisdom is the fact that like his companionsof thisdelegation he is a happy marrind mam Mr. Vaughan is a good business mirn and and o successful on-, and will -doubt- Darliigtoi. 8KKATOB J. W. BEA8KLY. Mr J. W. Beaseley, the Senator from Darlington County, is a success ful farmer, and has been prominent in politics for the past twelve or fif teen years. He was born in Darling ton Connty in Angust of 1841, and is now 48 years old. He received an academic education in the county schools, the war j>reventing his com pleting bis education, with a collegi ate course, as he proposed doing. In 1801 he enlisted, serving under the gallant Col. F. F. Warley, command ing the Inglis Light Artillery. At the close of the war he tanght school two years, when he commenced farm ing, which occupation he has steadi ly pursued ever since. In 1878 and 1880 he was elected a member of the State Legislature from this county, and during the latter term was made chairman of the committee on mines and mining. He was elected chair man of the connty Democratic execu tive committee in 1888, and again elected to this office in 1890. Mr. Beasely’s views on the political situa tion are conservative, believing, he says, that if any changes are deemed necessary in the Governmentextreme care should be used, and that it should be done slowly. He was elec ted Senator in 1890. JOHN 8. DUBOSE. The Rev. John S. DuBose is the veteran member of the Darlington Connty delegation to the Legislature. Be is entitled to this distinction by reason of the years that have been granted unto him as well as by his past public record. This will be his third legislative term, he haviug served in this capacity in 1886 and 1890. Mr. DnBoee was born in Darling ton County on July 11, 1836, and has always lived there, knowing it Would be hard to find a better place. He enlisted for the war, and was at the falliof Fort Sumter under the command of the brave Oapt Hoole. Daring the remainder of the strife be served under the gallant and fearless Capt F, F. Warley, commanding the Inglis Light Artillery. Ir. DuBose is a minister of the Gospel, bnt does not disdain to sow seed other than words spiritual, as he is a successful farmer also. Early in life he joined the Methodist Episco pal Chnrch, but in 1871 he embraced the Adfent faith and joined that re ligious body. In October, 1874, he was ordained a minister of that de nomination, and has eontiaued stead fast in this belief. He was elected vice president of the Piedmont Ad vent Conference at Wilmington, N.

Mr. Davis is a very modest gentleman, and the meagre facts gleaned concerning him had to be gained as best they could. Unlike his companions of this delegation, Mr. Davis is not a native-born Par- lingtoniau, having been born in Chesterfield County.
