DEATH OF HON. J. II. EVINS.

Hon. John H. Evins died at his home in
Spartanburg on the Goth instant. For a
long time he had been suffering from
Bright's disease, complicated with heart
affection. He did not hope to recover, but
the end came more suddenly than was ex-
pected. While talking with friends he fell
asleep and passed away without a struggle.
Col. Evins had many warm friends in York,
and all of them will bear testimony to his
ability, his solid worth and exalted charac-
ter. BY them, as by large number of peo-
pie throughout the State, his death will be
sincerely regretted, and his eminent public
service to his State and people properly and
fully appreciated.
Mr.. Evins was born in Spartanburg coun-
ty on the 18th of July, 1880. He entered
South Carolina College in December, 1850,
and graduated in 1858; studied law, and
was admitted to practice in 1859; was an
officer in the Confederate service, serving
first as lieutenant in the Fifth South Caro-
lima Regiment, and afterWard as Captain
in the Palmetto Sharpshooters; was wound
ed, and being disabled from active service
in the field was appointed Lieutenant Colo
mel, and assigned to duty in his own State;
was a member of the Legislature of South
Carolina for two terms; was a member OF
the National Democratic Convention at ST..
Louis in 1876; was elected to the Forty
fifth, Forty-sixth and Forty-seventh Con-
crosses and was re-slected to the Forty
eight Congress as Democrat, receiving
II .672 votes against 4,4S9 votes for r. r.
Elkins, the Greenback candidate.

STANDARD DRAMATIC COMPANY.

Hunter & Oates Opera House was opened to
the public for the first time on Thursday night
last, the occasion being the appearance Of the
Standard Dramatic Company under the stage
management Of Mr.. S. B. McElreth. The opera
house is not entirely finished, some details be-
ing vet lacking to render it complete, and the
stock scenery and drop curtain are not yet paint
ed, owing TO circumstances which could not be
controlled; so that the formal opening OF the
house as having taken place on the above date
cannot properly be announced. The house gives
promise that it will be great convenience TO
the public, and when fully completed more than
meet general expectation. We hope to have
more to say about it soon, when all the arrange
ments of the proprietors are perfected.
A fine house greeted Mr.. McElreth and his
company and for three nights they did good
business He and Miss Alice Irving, an emo
tional actress of fine ability are ably supported
by Mrs. McElreth, Misses Nellie Clare and Nina
Ritche and Mr.. Hamilton, Mr.. Caulfeld and
Mr.. J. H. Brown, besides others who appear in
minor parts. Mr.. Brown is a native OF Barn
well county, in this State, and has been with the
company about year. He is young gentle
man Of fine presence on the stage and acts the
roles assigned him with an ease and grace well
becoming an actor Of larger experience. He has
the natural ability to become eminent in the
profession he has chosen. OF McElreth 1t Is
useless to speak, He is known from Maine to
Texas, and his popularity is co-extensive with
his acquaintance. He is now at the head OF the
best company he ever managed-a company well
worthy of popular support.

of Republican victory. With eight years
ofgood government in South Carolina, con-
trasted with the preceding years of misrule,
corruption and robbery, our people should
know the estimate in which to hold Demo
cratic supremacy, which can be retained
only by every voter turning out and doing
his duty-a sacred duty which he owes TO
himself his neighbors, his county and his
State.
York county may be considered safe SO
far as affects the Democratic county nomi-
nees; but should the Republican State NOM
inees be generally supported by that party
throughout the State, by supineness on the
part of voters of this county, the day might
be lost. So in the Congressional contest.
We all feel that York will give majority
for Hemphill; but suppose that majority
should fall below what full vote would
make it, and it should be overcome by Ker-
shaw and Chester? The danger is that the
Fifth District might send Republican or
an Independent to Congress instead of re-
turning her tried, true and faithful Demo-
cratic Representative. The same warning
will apply to the Presidential contest. A
few votes lost in York county might lose
the State to Cleveland, and the loss of the
State in the electoral college might ensure
the election of Blaine. While we counsel
hope and confidence, at the same time we
earnestly urge on every voter the impor-
tance of discharging his duty next Tuesday

THE BOXES AND THE BALLOTS.

At the approaching election in this State
there will be eight ballot-boxes to be voted
! at in seventeen counties in the State (those
counties which do not elect State Senators
this year) and nine boxes to be voted at in
the remaining seventeen counties, which
elect State Senators. In the last-named list
of counties York is included, the boxes in
this county, and the list of officers to be
voted for, being as follows:
Box 1, Governor and Lieutenant-Govern-
or; Box g. other State officers; Box 3, cir
cult solicitor; Box 4, State Senator; Box 3,
members of the House of Representatives
Box 6, county officers; Box 7, Representa-
tives in Congress Box 8, Presidential elec-
tors; Box 8, Constitutional amendments.
Under the election law, a separate and
distinct space or enclosure from the space
or enclosure where the voting for State
officers will be held, shall be provided "as
polling place for the election of Congress-
man and Presidential electors, at such dis
tance from the polling place for the State
officers as the commissioners Of election for
each county shall determine and appoint for
each election precinct"
It is of the greatest Importance and should
always be borne in mind that the vote for
Presidential electors is a general vote, and
that the entire electoral ticket is to be voted
by each voter without regard to the particu-
lar section of the State or the Congressional
district in which he resides. In other
words, the voter in the Fifth Congressional
District should vote not only for the nomi-
nee for elector from the Fifth District, but
also for the elector from each of the other
Congressional Districts in the State as well
as for Presidential electors from the State
at large. There should be no mistake in
this matter, for the full Importance of the
coming election in this State hinges upon
the election of the full Democratic electoral
tiplat

Memphis, Mr.. A. G. Dent. Desiring to
amend his complaint so as to make the
State Agricultural Department party to

answer, and the case went over to the next
Court. The remaining time of the Court
was engaged in taking orders and other
civil business not requiring the presence of
ajury. The Court adjourned sine die Satur-
day morning.
Mr.. Peter Hardin, of the eastern portion
this county, lost by fire hi gin house and
eighteen bales of cotton on last Thursday
night. The fire was accidental. There was
no insurance on the property destroyed. 1t
is the part of wisdom for farmers to insure
their gin-houses, cotton and other property.
w. B. Wilson, Jr., Esq, of Rock Hill,

as he is lawyer, York county will have
every reason to be proud of his position in

ties.

NEXT TUESDAY.

From the date of this paper but five days
will intervene until the election-a contest
momentous to all our citizens, and one which
in National point of view may involve
the peace and prosperity of the country for
the next four years. The Democratic read
ers of South Carolina have generally been
taught, during the campaign now rapidly
drawing to a close, that the chances of DEM
ocratic success are favorable, and while they
are reasonably bright and promising of sue
cess, and we think more auspicious than in
any Presidential contest since the war, yet
none should think that a brilliant victory is
within easy grasp. TO win the day will
require an earnest effort on the part of
every Democratic voter. Over-confidence
on the part of the Democratic voters of the
State may not only lose South Carolina in
the Presidential election, but the State cleo
ton AS we'll There is registered colored
majority against us in the State, and there
are reasons for believing that it is thor
oughly organized and ready to poll its full
strength on the day of election. If, there
fore, our people do not bestir themselves
the day may be lost. With proper effort the
day is safe, but with Indifference or over
confidence, Democrats will lose the election.
1t becomes the Democratic voters of South
Carolina to realize their danger, and by
preparing for it avert it. Every Democrat
ic voter should realize the fact that his vote
and influence is needed in this election, and
he should give to the cause of honesty and
reform the benefit of his vote and his influ-
ence. The State has the right to expect
this much; for the man who is able to vote
and does not do so, contributes, whether in
tentionally or negligently, to the possibility

BRILLIANT MARRIAGE.

The evening of the 22nd instant witnessed the
solemnization of the nuptial ceremony between
Mr.. Walter B. Moore and Miss Annie Lee Ad-
ickes, both of this place. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. T. r. English, in the Pres
'byterian Church.
Long before the appointed hour, the church
was filled to overhowing with large, eXpectant
audience, assembled to witness the ceremony.
The church had been tastefully dressed with
floral decorations, and in front of the pulpit was
a handsome arch Of evergreens, from the centre
Of which was suspended a floral horseshoe. AT
S.3OP. NJ, the signal was given that the bridal
party was approaching. The organ, under the
skillful touch of Miss Sudie Nets, pealed out
the strains of Mendessohn's Wedding March,
and the bridal party entered.
The ceremony was conducted according to the
English custom, and accordingly the brides
maids were the only attendants. The BRIDE
groom, attended by his best man, DIR. 5. l.. Low

vounp lady carried an elegant boquet of rare
hot-house flowers.
Then the bride, leaning on the arm Of her
brother, Mr.. H. +. Adickes, advanced up the
aisle and stood Immediately under the floral
horseshoe. She was elegantly attired in dress
of white satin and ring cloth, cut en- train and
trimmed with point lace. Her veil fell in grace
full folds, being kept in place by a wreath of or
ange blossoms.

impressive manner by the minister, after which
