PERSONAL AND OTHERWLSE.
Thos. A. Murrtih, of Union, S. C..
arrived in the city last Sunday to
spend a few days visiting his mother
and other relatives.?Anderson Intelligencer.
Mr. J. II. Wilburn, of Lockhart,,
called in to see us while in town this
week. lie reports a large number of
brick already made for the extension of
the Lockhart Mill.
Deputy Sheriff W. N. Bobo went to
Gaffney Monday and brought back B.
F. Taylor who is wanted here for disposing
of goods under lien or chattle1
mortgage held by John II. Morris.
It begins to look very much like our
street car line is to te built in the near I
future. Plans and specifications, we
ulMeratand, have been Submitted and
contractors have the matter under con- j
sideration. We expect to give something
definite pretty soon now.
) Dr. J. G. Going having added two
nice rooms to his oflice fronting on
Main street, his quarters present
quite a cosy and attractive appearance.
The walls are nicely paperod
and everything in rooms is neatly arranged.
The next thing Union needs is an
uptown express office. The town is
large enough for an uptown oflice and
the office at tho railroad is none too
large for the growing business of the
railroad. Lot us havo an express
office up town.
Tho now Western Union Telegraph
office between Tinsley's Jewelry store
and Mulvihill's barbor shop on Main
street, is nearing completion, aud
while it looks very narrow the length
Is sufficient to give plenty of room
for tho transaction of the business of
the office.
King at Death's Door.
The latest news is that Klng^ Edward
is at Death's door. His tnind
is deranged and his death is 'momentarily
expected. The Prince.of Wales
?was appointed regent yesterday.
There is aj) old prophecy that King
Ldward would reign b.ut would never
be crowned. He *>jas reigned 1$
months already.

Evidence.
There is plenty of it, around about
vou, in favor of ' Clifton" Hour. It is
^asv to find the evideute if you will take
the trouble to observe, to investigate,
evidence of a nature convincing.
Evidence too strong to be broken down
by argument of any kind. There is no
point of attack save misrepresentation.
We claim that you can best afford to use
"Clifton".
It is unquestionably of superior quality.
It is milled on correct principles. It
is pure, white and nutritious. It is
used by successful and representative
housekeepers in both this country and
Europe. All this is proven evidence
at our command. We have not only
millers of experience, but millers of uur1iat\nln/l

Tribute to George Muuro.
isy w. jr. Foster.
A noble man has passed away,
He's paid the debt that all must pay;
No more we'll see his pleasant face.
He's run on earth a noble race.
Honest, upright, faithful and true,
Acted well his part his journey through;
Skilled in business just and correct,
Ilis record won for him respect.
Such men are always in demand,
An honor to the r native land;
Loved most by those who knew him b-st
He's gone, we trust, to endless rest.
Where joy and peace forever reign,
O'er all tiie wide extended plane;
Where grief and part ing arc no more,
No chilling blasts can reach that shore.

Because they stand upon the brink,
And soon from earth must pass away,
To darkest gloom or endless day.
To llim who rules earth, sea and skies,
Let all hearts make a sacrifice;
And every voice and every tongue,
