TT is well known to all that during the
i past two years, in fact for years previous
hard times has been gradually tightening
his grip upon us that our incomes grew
beautifully less,' and as result we must
practice greater economy. Then the ques-
ton arises, how can this be done? the an
swer to which has prompted the writing OF
this short article. Nearly two years SINCE
we engaged in the Grocery and Provisloil
business in this place, and how well we.
have succeeded in bringing the price or.
that class of goods to their proper value,
as sold III neighboring cities, we leave to-
the surrounding community TO decide
enough tor us to know that our business
has increased beyond our most sanguino
anticipations. TO accommodate the ibe-
raj patronage extended to us, we have re-
moved to the large and commodious rooms
known as the Haslet Building, where we
have largely increased our stock, both rs
to quantity and variety, having added
TinWare, Boots and Shoes, Gloves, mo-
tions. and the staple articles of Hardware
to our former stock of Groceries and Pro-
visions, Flour and Feed, To parties pur-
chasing of us in quantity we offer liberal
discount on our low retail prices and VIII
duplicate prices of goods in cur me
wherever purchased. Cash paid for grain.'

W mornings APPEAL,

YESTERDAY, at Emwood cemetery, the
Confederate monument was unveiled, and
the graves OF the loved and lost were deco
rated with flowers 10y the loving hands Of
fair women and brave men. The flowers and
tears of the living marked the spots where
the Confederate soldiers sleep beneath the
sod and verdure of toe hillside and valley. The
beautiful monument points heavenward to the
home of the brave sp.lits who rest beneath,
and prayers, signs and tears of men and
women followed the souls of the dead patriots
to the land of the hereafter. The people Of
Memphis and Snelbj county yesterday went
with bowed heads and sympathizing hearts
to Elmwood, aHd gazed with fond affection
over the little mounds OF eaIth, the grass
covered graves OF comrades, fathers, sons,
and brothers. Their work is done, and
they rest in peace beneath the
shade of the trees that line the
margin of the beautiful river The paths OF
glory lead but to the grave" The eloquent
Grafton delivered by General w. Y. c.
Humes yesterday, and printed in full in our
local columns, will command attention and
admiration. 1t Is a deserved tribute from tie
living to the dead, hand-clas ping over the
grave by comrade to comrade. 1t was trib-
ut. Of duty and love which the heart of the
virtuous aul brave alone can pay to fallen
Chivalry.

RAN HIS LEGS OFF.
Favorite Race Horse
belonging TO General Buford, Actu-
ally Ran Both his Fore Legs or
atSt. Louis Yesterday, and
had to be Killed.

Our telegraphic reports of the aces at st.
Louis yesterday contained the following ac-
count of an unfortunate occurrence which
took place during the first race, three mile
dash, participated in by Mahlstick, M'Whir
ter, Joe Rhodes and Red Bluff, the first
named winning: "When NJ Whirter passed
under the string in the third mile, about
two lengths behind Mahlstick, he seemed
to be letting down, and from the first turn lost
rapidly to near the half mile pole, where he
fell 1t was then discovered that both fore
legs were broken just above the fetlocks, the
bones protruding through the skin He was
then shot and killed, aud will be buried
on the grounds. The general belief seems
to be that he broke one leg while rounding
the first turn in the third mile, and from
there ran Oh three legs nearly to the half
mile pole, where the other leg broke, and he
fell Much sympathy is expressed for Gen
eral Buford, the owner Of M'Whirter, and
the sad event greatly marred the pleasure of

unblushing manner IN which the leaders OF

THE SUBCOMMITTEE IN FLORIDA

JACKSONVILLE, June 5.-Tha sub-com-
mttee arrived this morning and will COM
mence Investigations Immediately, holding
a session this evening. A few witnesses are
already here, including Secretary of-State
Bloxham. Others will arrive tomorrow.
A messenger was dispatched to-day for NJ Lin,
who cannot arrive for four or FIVE days.
It's doubtful about the committee going TO
Tallahassee. Secretary of-State Bloxham,
the first witness, produced four pre-
clncts returns and two returns Of
the canvassers of Baker county, the
first having a majority for Hayes by
throwing out two precincts. The second
witness, Cox, formerly clerk of Baker county,
testified that he made the aforementioned
canvass in favor of Tilden, and that was the
only one that could be made from
the original returns of the precincts,
as they were always in his possession.
It is the opinion of General Hunton to night
that the committee will be ready to start for
Washington on Monday. They will not visit
Tallahassee. II congress adjourns on the
seventeenth, the report will not be ready for
this session. 1t Is believed that the founda-
ton was laid to-day for an extended exami-
nation into the Baker county affair, giving
other counties like prominence The Dem
ocr, tic members, however decline to disclose
their plans.
