Attention is called to Dissolution Notice of McClam and Truluck, Lake City, published this week. Mr J C Lynch of Lynch, one of Florence county's prominent business men, was in Kingstree AJynday on business. J D Mouzon's barber shop has been removed into the VanKeuren hotel, where there is much ' more room and an abundance of light. The room formerly util iied will be occupied by J ?' Fulton's pressing club. Mrs William Calvin Chilton, reader, impersonator and dialect reciter, will appear at the auditorium to-morrow night under the auspicies of the Kin;?stree Lyceum. This is the last of the seasons attractions and there should be a good audience. Attention is called to the ad. Of Or J B DuRant's drug store, fr"' Lake City. Dr DuRant is the only druggist in the county who advertises regularly and we are glad to learn that he finds it to be profitable. Then, too, he stresses the point that if you see it in his ad it's so. P#?titinns are beinir circulated here to have another election of the dispensary question. We understand that there are several of these petitions in circulation over the county and the probability is that a sufficient number,of signatures will be secured to justify the supervisor in ordering the election.

NEGRO RUNS AMUCK. EicItiDQ Chase Along Main Street Last Thursday. Some excitement was occasioned last Thursday afternoon by the efforts to arrest a negro named Maxwell Rodgers who hailed from the Greelyville sec uuu. xu a. scincwcui v/x uxo account at F C Thomas' stables he became very insolent and invited the manager, Mr A 0 Hudson, outside. Mr Hudson went and the negro assaulted him and took leg bail. Marshal Anderson immediately gave chase and failing to overtake the fugitive, tired several shots to intimidate him. The negro kept on up Main street, but meantime several young men followed him on horseback and in buggies and it was but a short while when he was overhauled and brought back to town. At the hearing before the intendant the negro was lined $10.00, which he paid, but meantime, we understand he, has been indicted for assault and battery and will have to answer the charge before the court of general sessions.

HortiQ Brick Hill. Thursday, the 18th inst., Jimmie Fulton, a twelve-year-old negro employed at uapt, runits, brick mill near town, was caught in a belt and drawn into a cog-wheel, causing his arm to be broken in two places. He was at once brought to Drs Gamble and Jacobs and the arm set. While the hurt is a pretty severe one at last accounts the boy was doing well and will probably recover. The accident, we learn, was due to the boy's own carelessness, as his work about the mill does not require him to come in cantact with the machinery, withwhich he was pranking with when caught in the belt.
