Another Growing Business. Mr. Frank G. Austell, the popular manager and junior member of the thriving business of W. T. BeatyA Company, informs us that the big page advertisement he put in Tiie Times a few weeks ago was a trade winner and no mistake he has been doing a nulling business and siys that his trade is better than it has ever been, and is still increasing. His ad. brought the customers with a rush. They were so well oleased with their purchases and treatment that each b?eam? a wilk'ng advertisement and others caine na'urally. He has found it impossible to wait upon the trade with his former fotcs and has consequently added new help, and one only has to step in iheie any day in the w? ek to see that they have their hands full. It is not a matter with him now of waiting until Saturday for trade. You have heard the old snug "Every day will be Sunday bye and bye " Well, one would thiuk that every day had got to be Saturday around his store. Frank says he knows a go Hi thing when he runs against it. So he has deoided to hit the iron while it is hot and we call especial attention to ins n>iniH'?me pure ad. in this is<ue of The Times, in wnioh he has something interesting io tell you. Don't fail to drop into this store when you come to town, tlmt is if you want your dollars to rubber ruck "and stretch out like a lawyer's conscience. \rou will lind the following force h-'iind the counters anv one of whom will delight iu showing you any goods yon wish to see whether you buy or not: Frank G.

Give them a call, they'll do tho rest, and when you go out you'll udviao others to go itj. Full Force On. The rapidly increasing business of Mr. M. W. Bobo has made it necessary to add still further to his force, it is now a large force, but not one too many, they are all kept busy waiting on customers. We dropped in at hi*l establishment a few days ago and people were going out with great leads of packages in their arms. Mr. Bobo (dapped us on the shoulder as he saw us watching this stream of customers an I said Mfchat is what my big adverilament in The IYmer is doing." He said they pome in every day and a*k for things they saw in that big ad. in The Times. He said ( it is bringing th> business his way, and we know it is so. We asked him for a list of his salesmen and he said, "I'll Havo to eounfc them," Hero they are, and it is a hus>lin^, polite and attentive force, with whom it is a pl-asure to tr-id*: M.

On Moi\1j\S it was discovered that spurious coin and bogus tnill checks were in circulation in Union. The matter was at once investigated by the police and the counterfeiter was noon treed and captured, also the tods with which he was carrying on his nefarious business. Ilis name is :dam darter.

The Iiev. Dr. Dillard of the Presbyterian church preached at the colored school house near here yesterday. lie is an educated man and gave his people some good advice. Ilis text was John 8:11). "Men love darkness rather than light lieoause their deeds are evil.'' He said among other things that it was a bad sign for the future of the negro race to see so many of their young men on the chain gang. In fact the prisons are filled with young men. Jtecentiv he passed a convict camp and noticed the whole gang was made up of si out, robust, healthy young bucks wli.iso every appearuioe indicated that they deserved a better fate. Hut they had ohosen darkness rather than light and this was the sad consequenoe. Frost has set in regularly and the cotton will soon all be opened.
