Mr.. W. r. Baldwin sold his
brick store now occupied by Prof.
j. w. T. Lowrey to Messrs. Chris
tie & Laing on last Monday for
the sum of $4,000. Christie &
Laing have come to stay. They
are working up, already, q large
and lucrative trade, and we are
glad to say, from experience, that
they are doing just what they
claim to do-selling strictly for
the cash. The best man in Ter
rell county can't get a dimes
worth of goods from Christie &
Laing on credit. 1t was predicted
by many that Christie & Laing
would soon become tired of trying
to sell goods exclusively for the
cash and abandon the project, but
not so; their trade is growing ev-
cry week and we predict for these
gentlemen a brilliant record dur
ing the years to come. Cash con-
Germs are what we need. Any man
who will take the pains to think
for moment, must know, that the
man who sells exclusively for the
cash, can afford to sell cheaper
than one who sells to Tomj Dick
and Harry on credit.

The "Phunnyties," rip-roar-
ing sort of a show, without either
system, moral or order, sometimes
ridiculous and sometimes approx
imating the sublime, struck Daw-
son on last Monday night and
gave performance that we hard
ly know how to characterize or
describe. Some were pleased and
some were not. Some thought it
very poor; but, upon the whole
everybody seemed to laugh wheth-
er they really enjoyed it or not.
The attendance was very meagre,
and we suppose the receipts barely
paid them out.

Neighbor, friend, farmer, don't
fiatter yourself that everybody
else, except you, is planting a
small crop of cotton, and, there
fore, you can slip up on the "blind
side" Of the market this year. This
will prove, as it has done in the
past, fatal delusion. Be sure,
first, that you have in a plenty of
corn, and, then, devote your sur
plus time and acreage to cotton
we'll fertilized with homemade
manures.

The Boquett party at DIR. Ken

one of the most enjoyable social
events that has occurred in our
city in a long while. They are call

that the young ladies all place a

attached, and the young men then

Jail Delivery.

On Wednesday night of last
week, a negro prisoner by the
name of George Washington, who
had been incarcerated some two
months before upon charge OF
simple larceny, escaped from our
county Jail. He cut his way
through the cell by means of a
small pen-knife, which the officer
failed to discover upon his person
when committed. From the APP
pearance of the aperture in the
wall, it must have taken several
weeks to have done the necessary
cutting in order to escape. As
soon as it was made known to
Sheriff Thornton that the prisoner
had escaped, he supplied Gid
Marshall with a good revolver, q
pair of handouts and the necessa-
ry funds to defray expenses and
started him in pursuit. Gid fol-
lowed on until Saturday evening,
when he recaptured his man in
Sumter county, about two miles
north of Americas. He was
handcufed and brought back on
Saturday night and safely lodged
IN jail again. So much for the
vigilance of good officer

The sermon of Rev. Mr.. Snive-
ly was listened to by an appreci-
alive congregation on last Sabbath,
This labor of love" on the part of
this successful divine in filing the
pulpit of the Methodist church in
this city at intervals during the
year, is always appreciated by
those who are more than glad to
listen to the golden words that
fall from the lips of this faith
full minister. His sermon was an
unanswerable one so far as it went
to prove the divinity of the Son OF
God, and the necessity of taking
Him as a personal as well as a
general Savior. All went away
proftted, and some with the deter
mination never more to reject
Christ as their Savior and as the
Savior Of the world.

SIR: I have recently seen assigned to The

this statement surprising that made some inquiries

and read Mr. sheezs report Of his visit along the East
Penn Railroad. I find:
a. The statements are obviously strained. The writer
begins by saying "wages ranged from go to so cents
day." and his first and only witness states that he Is
paying 90, and names nobody who pays less than so
cents.
(2) This witness, James F. Dunn. says about Top

cents a day" Also "around Mertztown and Shamrock
men are paid from go to So" The vagueness Of this
will strike you But the work of surface miner" may
be-in places have personally seen in Virginia 1t
actually is-absoutely nothing but shovellins from

such rude labor on par with that OF the moro or less
skilled miner, who RISKS life often and health always.
