^ ; Hard times, short crops and

but little when a "show" comes
s>'; to town. Betimes Tuesday
st morning they began coming in

)n the "puffawmance" to begin a
iy I big crowd had foregathered at
et the grounds on the Epps lot in
by East Academy street, all eager
to part with their coin in exchange
for the magic bit of
lr paste-board that admitted tbe(,
sight-seer to the tented area of
jjj amusement.
al The King & Tucker show is
not in a class with. Ringling or
Barnum & Bailey. In fact, it is
not a circus at all; no menagerie
or hippodrome; no parade or
spectacular pageant; just a
tie two-ring show of the type that
L used to travel across country
before the advent of the iron
horse. And even then the two
rings were not continuously i
)Q occupied during the hour or so 1
that the performance lasted. 1
But there was some good
[j trapeze work, a trio of funny i
clowns whose quips were rather
jc clever, and the slack wire artists
were quite above the average. 1
^ On the whole, the crowd was ;
jg well entertained, and that, after J
Pjj all, is the chief desideratum, as 1

ing to get everything in shape

to be ready for by November 1.1
There is a lot to be done in the j

plant. A large sample room, a
pool room, bath and toilet
rooms leave nothing wanting in
\aDDointments of this up-to
o~te hostelry.
Mr. Chandler, the proprietor,
comes from Danville, Va., and
#
during the past few months has
been in Lake City representing
a firm of tobacco buyers. Mr
Chandler expects to occupy the
building with his family at once.
The closing of the hotel pending
the change of management
has been a serious inconvenience
to the public and traveling men
especially,some of whom acutally
'-cut out" the town because
they could not find a suitable
place to stop. Such a state of
things is detrimental to our
town and it is to be hoped that
Minehost Chandler will give a
hotel service in keeping with
the spirit of New Kingstree.

Two counties will vote on the
dispensary on November 3, the
date for the general election?
Laurens and Chester. Mr C C
Featherstone, who was in the
city yesterday, believes that
Laurens will go dry by an overhelming
vote. The recent fight
to prevent th$ issue going to a
vote, h^thinks, is evidence that
the dispensary people are afraid
and the proceedings were such
that many have decided to vote
against the county dispensary.
In Chester county an active
canvass has been made, but the
result is in doubt. Air Featherstone
recently re ceived a request
from the prohibitionists
of Chester to make an. address
there, but it is doubtful if he
