Im|M>rtuiit Meeting of Woodmen.
An important special meeting of
Hollywood Camp, Woodmen of the
World, will be held tomorrow. Wed
nesay, night at 8 o'clock.
The meeting has been called for
two purposes?to pass upon the ap?
plications for membership, thirty now
being on file; and to consider the
proposed meeting of the Grand Coun?
cil of South Carolina In this city in
March next.
When Sumter was selected as the
place of meeting there was even then
some doubt about the hotel accommo?
dations being adequate, but since
that time the Jackson Hotel has been
burned and it is now an unquestion?
ed fact that it is impossible to find
homes for the more than five hun?
dred delegates who will attend the
Grand Council of Woodmen. Holly?
wood camp is face to face with the
proposition and it is necessary that
action be taken at once. It being im?
possible for the hotel to, house all the
delegates, the camp must either find
accommodations for the visiting
Woodmen in private homes of Sum?
ter or inform the officers of the Grand
Council that in consequence of the
burning of one of the hotels, Sumter
cannot entertain the Grand Council.
This question must be sett'ed tomor?
row night and, as the one? most In?
terested, the Woodmen who reside in
the city should attend the meeting.

Xmas Shopping! \
A FEW MORE DAYS AND THE HAPPY
HOLIDAYS WILL BE HERE. THE PUZZLING
QUESTION IS AND WILL BE
What Shall I Buy ?
The que&ion of usefulness as well as of
value should be taken into consideration.
There are thousands of dollars annually
spent for Chri&mas gifts that are only
good to look at. Why not buy something
useful by which your friends will remem?
ber you ? We do not handle toys or ex?
treme novelties, but for a line of practical,
serviceable articles, our line will be found
as complete as any in the city. Our buyer
has recently returned from
His Third Trip to Market
And all the weak spots, in our numerous
departments, made vacant by the greatest
rush of business we hare ever experienced,
have been strengthened, and in many cases
by merchandise, very much under value,
all of which it is a pleasure to gi~e our pa?
trons the benefit of. Don't put off your
shopping until the laSt day or the la&
week, do it now when you can get intelli?
gent and satisfactory service.
O'Donnell & Company.
