hind. We are allowed until April,
to comply with this requirement,
after which time all sub- 1

in the matter, being- compelled
to conform to the regulations of
the pottkofflce department
Now, we ask all our subscrib- ,
ers who are in arrears and want '
the paper continued, to come up 1
and settle their accounts before
April 1, while those delin3cents
who do-not care to have <
le paper any more will confer
a favor to notify us and at the
4 same time pay what they owe
for past service. We ask that
prompt attention be given to
this matter, as there is but little
time for delay. ?

As the gladsome Easter tide

tions. A woman without a new
Eaister hat is to be sympathized
with by the most callous and
cynical bachelor heart; and from
the stock of millinery poods 1
displayed in Kingstree by our
enterprising merchants we
doubt not that every fair lady
in Kingstree or accessible to the
town will adorn herself with a 1
"becoming" hat ere the glorious '
Easter dawns.
The . Kingstree Dry Goods '1
Company, whose millinery de- 1
partment is presided over by ,
Miss Mena Brewington, has a 1
beautiful line of hats and ,
trimmings, including the "merry
widow" hat?which is the J
rage in New York city. It would [,
be bard to imagine a prettier '
lot of goods ot tbis class than ,
Miss Brewington is exhibiting '
at her opening.
Picture hats, pattern hats and
dainty gauzy effects in form ;
and fabric mark tbe ensemble of ,
Mrs S Marcus' Easter open- ;
ing. A mere man is scarcely
capable of judging this class of
merchandise, but the richness (
and artistic finish of Mrs Marcus*
Easter offerings speak for
themselves. ,
Mesdames Gale A: Gale, on
Rast Mr,in stwt. while newlv
established here, show themselves
to oe experts in the mill- i
inery art and the taste and Sn- j
ish of their beautiful hats appeal
to the most casual observer.
They have a very neat and ^
attractive place of business and
display the same taste and skill {
in the arrangement of their
goods as in trimming their hats. <
In personally selecting her <
stock of milliner}' and spring j
goods Mrs J S Eron was fortu- 1
nate in securing the latest and
most stylish effects judging from
the display of hats and trim- ^
mings at her "opening" yester
day. Mrs Eron has a number
and variety from which one *
could hardly fail to make a !
selection. Her picture hats are v
from the latest models and (
make a pleasing show. s
In millinery and dress goods (
we doubt if there is a town of
equal size in the State that can '
coftipare with Kingstree and it j
is well worth while to visit the
the stores and see the splendid j
array of goods brought here by ,
our up-to-date dealers.

Court Proceedings (Concluded.) (
The following cases were dis- (
posed of last week in addition
to those already reported:
The State vs Joshua L Evans, ^
housebreaking and larceny,

Florence, conducted the defense

- - For T
fSDAY an
r Spring
election, we are prepared to
ioods Gc
the chaingang. Evans is a white
man living near Take City and I
the alleged crime was stealing 1
less than one dollar's worth of I
fodder and oats. He was con- I
vie ted at the last term of court, I
but his counsel made a' motion I
for a new trial and4/obtained it.
In some respects this was a remarkable
case, x j
Pleasant D Lee, charged with
obtaining goods under false pretences,
was acquitted. He was
represented by Messrs Lee and
Askins.
Julia McBride and Sallie Nesmiih
were convicted of larceny
of live stock. On motion of E L
Hirsch, Esq., who represented
the defendants a new trial was
granted Julia McBride. ?
Only two jury cases were tried I
in tbe court of common pleas,
viz, tbe case of the Enterprise E
Wood Distilling Co. and that of
A. Graham against the Pied- __
mont Mutual Insurance. In tbe
first suit a verdict was render- w
id for $2,000 in favor of the d
plaintiff and in the second the p
jury found $600 against the defendant
company.
The case against Robert
Barr, the little negro who- was
charged witL) house-breakingand
larceny and assault and battery,
was no! prosed on account of
the boy being under six years
of age.
On Friday afternoon Judge
Dantzler adjourned the court
