The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1885-07-02

On last Monday evening the John JACK
Comedy Company appeared in the Mason
ic Hall in this city for the first time, pro-
ducing Falstaff. A small but apprecia-
tive audience greeted the Company. On
Tuesday evening the programme was very
entertaining, consisting of i,nces, reoita-
tions, songs, &c. The leading actress is
Miss Annie Firmin, who is certainly the
brightest star that has ever appeared
before our people. As conimedian, Mr.:
John Jack ranks very high. The Compa-
ny is 6rst.class, and, should it remain in
Anderson another night we hope our peo-
pie will be more liberal in their patronage.
Last Tuesday morning Lizzie Pearman,
colored, entered Mr.. q. sharp's residence,
while the family were in the back yard,
and was in the act of breaking opon a
bureau drawer when she attracted the
attention of Mrs. Sharpe. When the wo.
man saw Mrs. Sharp, she ran, but was
oyertaken in the yard and detained until
policeman was sent for. She had secur-
ed a purse containing small sum of
money. On Monday; Mrs. Sayre's rosi-
dence, adjoining Rev. TT. Gadsden,
was entered and purse and some jowelry
stolen. 1t is believed The same woman
committed that crime alsos
At meeting of the Board Of Directors
of the Savannah Valley Railroad Com
pany, held in this city last Thursday, the
depot stations along the line were located
as follows: Deans, Vinegar Road Cross
ing, Lowndesville, Graves, Testers, Mt.
Carmel, and DR.. Gibert's. At some of
the points along the line the competition
for locations was pretty active. The par.
ties interested in the locations are required
to enter into bonds for the grading of tue
side track necessary and for the payment
of the amount of money proposed by
them in their bids, or to pay the same
cash, and to convey to the Company by
deed one acre of ground for depots and
other. use of the Company. The Compa-
ny gets over and above the grading of the
side track and one acre of lend, seven
hundred dollars from the community at
Deans, four hundred from the Vinegar
Road Crossing, five hundred from DIR.
Gibert's, and three hundred each from
the other locations. The laying Of the
track on the Road is progressing rapidly,
the first train having already passed over
half mile or more Of it.
Quite number of changes are to occur
this Fall in the business places of our
merchants, prominent among which is the
removal of the New York Cash Store from
their present location to the handsome
building owned and now occupied by
Messrs. B. F. Crayton s. Sons, adjoining
the National Bank. As will be seen by
his big advertisement, Mr.. M. B. Arm
stein proposes to close out the large stock
of goods now on hand, and when we call
ed on him found him busily engaged with
his efficient clerks marking down the
prices and arranging goods for the "great
removal SALE" Mr.. Arnstein believes it
is profitable to get rid of goods when
times are dull, but his main idea is to
open his handsome new store this Fall
with only fresh, desirable and fashionable
goods-both upstairs and downstairs
and this proves his fine business tact and
enterprise. We bespeak for his new
store, which is larger, more commodious
and better adapted for the proper display
of his extended stock, an increased trade,
and in wishing him all possible success
that his efforts deserve, we would advise
all to call at his present stand and take ad-
vantage Of the bargains offered.
