How "a Went Into 159.

In an arithmetical sense not a difficult
accomplishment, but where the figuring
involves almost giving away articles of
necessity and luxury, a sort of One-sided
business, as Simon Mitchell, late of "A
Whitaker street, found when he resolved
to have more room in which to display his
array OF ''good clothes" OF course the
less a man has to carry with him the
cheaper it is to move, and on this princi-
pie Mitchell slaughtered-yes, cut prices
all to pieces, and while it was a ''cold
spell' financially for Mitchell he was
kept pretty hot in serving the crowds who
took advantage of the bonanza, and they
cleaned him out very well, too, so that he
is now settled at 159 BrOughtOn street
next to J. A. Douglass with brand
new stock of Mems, Youths and Boys
business and dress suits, furnishing goods,
underwear, hats, caps, ETC., and he pro-
poses to hold his old trade and gain new
customers if lOD prices, flrst-class goods
and fair treatment can do it. Call and
see him in his new stand, 159 BrOughtOn
street. SIMON MITCHELL.

THE PROPOSED DRILL.

Some Matters Pertaining to it Explained
Editor Morning NelCs: Many have
approached me desiring information al
ready touched upon in my former letters.
For their satisfaction 1 will endeayor to
explain fully and clearly some matters
pertaining to the contemplated drill. In
the first place am misunderstood in re-
gard to the capital to be employed. While
we desire to have, nOminally, a
capital of $4,000, yet, in reality,
we will find that a 10 per cent.
installment of that amount, or
$500 will be sufficient to give US
good send off, and keep it moving until its
opening. We expect it then to be self
sustaining at least, if not source OF
profit of from 10 to % per cent. to its
stockholders. Suppose the actual cost
of our drill will be $25, 900, the exercises
last six DAYS, and that we have an aver
age attendance of 10000 people per day.
OF this number say only One-half or 10000
of them visit the Fair Grounds each
dav. This would make total attendance
of go. 00o people for the six days. At the
admission price of fifty cents apiece this
would give us net result from attend
ance of $4,000, besides which we will
have the proceeds from the sale OF prlNl-
leges, which is worth from two to three
thousand dollars. The attendance flgura-
lively used is a small one. 1t is shown
in my first letter that Nashville's
$4,000 show drew crowd one day Of
10000 people. We expect to have an affair
three or four times as large as theirs. As
for accommodations, our private houses
will all open their doors, as was the case
at Nashville, and ample quarters will
thus be offered. From all l can learn this
idea of a drill meets with general APP
prevail. Its successful organization is now
an assured fact. The first meeting is
soon to be held, when its plans
of operation will be duly presented. We
hope each and every one will feel it their
duty. as citizens, to help forward the en-
terprise. Let us be alive to our inter-
ests. and not allow other cities, with half
the natural advantages that we possess,
to outstrip us in such matters. | leave
the affair, then, in the hands of our fellow
citizens. whom hope will leave no stone
unturned to push it to ultimate success.
