VERY LOW RATES.

The travel TO Louisville is fast increasing
from all quarters on account of the many
attractions which are and will be presented
during the next six weeks. The Exposition

as to rates. All those who desire to take
advantage of them will find tickets on sale

80 days, giving the purchaser ample time
to see all the sights of Louisville and if he
desires to visit the Exposition at Cincinnati,
round trip tickets for which are on sale at

be heartily welcomed and assured Of an ar
ray of attractions unsurpassed by any other
Western city.

Objection.

I have no objection, whatever, to young
men escorting young ladies to church in
the evening, or anyother ime-think it
quite proper. But do object to the prac-
tice, now obtaining, of calling for the ladies
about a-half-hour after the ringing Of the
second bell, thus making it SO late that the
ladies decline attending the services, al
though they had been ready and waiting
for an hour-and-ahaf. Quite recently two
charming young ladies were forced to stay
at home because of the lazinesS Of those
who had engaged their company, and conse-
quently did not hear most eloquent ser
mon. But if you will be late-very late
you need not run over an old fellow at
crossing, as was done on Sunday night by
celebrated blood, who was going at a 2:30
speed to make up some fooled away time.
Start sooner and go slower. JOSH.

P1uek and Enterprise wln xln.


In 1874 Henry Kahn commenced business
in Bolivar. From a small beginning he
gradually moved forward by laborious and
strict attention to business and the most
scrupulous fairness in his dealings with the
people, until old age and physical infirma-
ties required his retirement from active
commercial life His labors were album
dainty rewarded with large results. He
amassed ample capital and left it VIII in
hand to his sons, four in number, as his
business successors. Though not actively
employed, yet his good judgement still
guides and controls the large and increasing
business Of the well-known and far-famed
Kahn Brothers.
Marcus, Ike, Jake and Sam are thorough
ly drilled business men-prompt, accommo-
dating, enterprising and reliable. They are
business men in the strictcst sense & know
how to buy to the best advantage and how
to sell that they may win and hold the
largest and best trade. They represent the
amplest capital and when they go East to
purchase stock they buy for cash and
hence get rock-bottom rates.
This season they kept Marcus in the East
to watch for the most desirable cash bar
gains at the extensive and popular New
York and Boston trade sales. As aresult
they are now now daily receiving their Fall
and Winter shipments from the East. Their
stock this season will be the most saleable
one ever brought to this market. Dry
Goods in all varieties, from the finest to the
plainest. Clothing in all styles and grades
Shoes for Ladies and Misses, Boots and
Caters for Men and Boys, the best and the
cheapest. Hardware. Queensware, and all
other miscellaneous articles usually found
in a first-class store may be had on the best
terms.
The Kahn Brothers do not intend to be
undersold this season. They only ask an
inspection Of their Goods before you buy, as
they are satisfied no where else can you get
such bargains as they offer. They guaran-
tee to give satisfaction and only solicit a
trial
They are liberal cotton buyers and this
Fall they are ready to see that farmers get
the highest market rates for cotton.
If you want to save money in your pur-
chases, buy of H. Kahn & Sons.
Ii you want to get real bargains in Dry
Goods come to II. Kahn & Sons.
Having bought their stock at lowest cash
rates they know they can't be undersold and |
they will see that they are not undersold.

Last week \. r., of Somerville was seen
wandering about Bolivar. 1t is reported he
left home for Whiteville but lost his way
and came to Bolivar. What is the matter
with certain of the young Somervilians?
When they start for Iardeman they become
hallucinated and invariably take wrong
roads. Ii is said that some of our beautiful
girls have so charmed them that they have
become beauty-blind. Poor fellows. But
they should be comforted with the satisfac-
ton that the disease is very general and
they have much company.

Reply to NeighbOr.

Mr.. EDITOR In reply to Neighbor
will state that the road in front of my house
and lots needed Strengthening and directed
my manager to have it done, and showed
him where to run the fence He built the
fence before fixing the new road My
neighbor shall have as good a road as he
wants and as safe as any other stretch be-
tween Kearney's mill and Roper's branch,
and until that is secured him the old route
will be left open. The County Court never
interferes with altering a road for two hun
dred yards to shorten it, if the new part is as
good as the old. NJ. T. POLK.

MASON & HAsTLIN ORGANS.
Wholesale Southern Depot.


As will be seen by advertisement in this
issue the Mason q Hamlin Organ CO., have
established Southern Wholesale Distribu-
ting Depot at Savannah, Ga, under man
agement of Messrs. Ludden & Bates, who
have been their wholesale agents for the
past eight years The sale Of Mason &
uamlin Organs in the south has always been
immense but within the past year or so the
demand has been so overwhelmingly large
that the establishment OF Il Grand Southern
Distributing Dcpo: from which dealers and
Agents could be more conveniently supplied
became almost a necessity. The long eX-
perience of Messrs. Ludden & Bates in sell
ing Mason & Uamlin Organs and in run
ming their large music trade makes them
especially competent to manage the Whole
sale Depot. They are the right men in the
right place and will organize and develop a
trade fer Mason & IIamlin that will give
those worthy gentlemen an idea OF what 4
solid musical South really Is. The musical
world endorse the Mason & Hamiin Organs
and the entire South endorse Ludden &
Bates, and their way of selling musical in
struments at living prices. The opening of
their Grand Southern Music House at Sa-
vannah, with Its branches at Augusta and
Atlanta, Ga. jacksonville, Fla, Charleston
and Greenville, S. G. was the Inauguration
Of low prices and easy terms in the South,
and a strict adherence to this policy has
given them their rank of the leading Music
House of the South. Such Il wide awake
house deserves the hearty support of our
people, but the only claim they make for
patronage is that they offer the greatest in
duccments vet given by any house, North or
South We believe that this claim Is well
founded and we advise purchasers TO write
them if a piano or organ Is needed. Ssh

Late on Thursday afternoon Mr.. jay
Gould's private secretary called his atten-
ton to the newspaper report that the How
ard Association of Memphis was about to
discontinue its work in that city for want Of
cash. This report was a surprise TO the pub
lie. because when Mr.. Gould RENTED
s., 600 to the association last week he di-
rected the President to call on him for any
necessary money. 1t was also surprise to
Mr.. Gould, as he had expected to meet any
demands that should be made of him. He
expected, also, that when the Howard Asso-
citation wanted more money they would no.
THY him. He was exceedingly busy arrang-
ing his business affairs for an absence from
the city Of about three weeks on account Of
a trip that he Is now taking with his family
to Colorado. As he had only short time
before the departure Of the train, he did not
wait to advise with the Memphis people by
telegraph, but drew check for s., 600 which
he gave to his secretary, with instructions
to transmit the money the first thing yes
terday morning. The check was therefore
taken to the Bank of New York, the bank
that transmitted the first s., 600 early yes
terday morning. The amount was telegraph
ed at the opening of banking hours.-New
York Sun.

We regret to learn that Rev. D. G. Wells
has recently had another attack of the asth-
ma. He labored very hard at the Brick
Church meeting and returned home with
this terrible malady. When disease forced
him to retire from the active work, the
church in the Southwest lost the services of
one of its strongest and most eloquent min
listers. We hope, however, the good nursing
he is receiving, will soon restore him to
health and strength.

Heavy Robbery at Toons.
TooNs. Tenn. Sep. 16. 1879.

TooNs, Tenn, Sep. 16, 1879.
Mr.. EDITOR On last Sunday evening,
DIR. Nuckolls was in his safe examining
some papers and closed his safe, only the day
lock being put on at that time, but thought
he would return again soon and put on
combination lock. But being called to see
patient, he was kept away until nine
o'clock p. m. and when he returned did not
think to lock his safe securely. The thief
came through a window in the store some
time between twelve o'clock and day, and
finding safe in readiness for him he took
entire contents which were about $500,
$1,000 of which were in geld belonging to
some out side party. He also took one new
pistol and several pocket knives and about
S25 or $50 in small change. We have no
clue whatever as to who the thief could have
been VERNON.
