The Colt Show.

y. Every ::one expresses himself as
being delighted with the "colt show
Of last Monday. There was not a colt
on exhibition that did not have some
marks Of superiority about it, and it
speaks volumes for the farmers Of Abbe-
ville County that they arc able to make
such AN exhibit We have hoard it
suggested, and think the suggestion a
good one, that the exhibitors form d So
ciety, and offer premiums for the finest
colts. This. would take tho place, to
sonic extent Of a County Fair, and
would ba much less expensive.
Tho following were the exhibitors,
and the names and pedigree Of their
colts:
John z. Brownlce-Lady Granger,

McClung: Duke Of Shclburn. owned by
j. II. Latimer; Daisy a beautiful COW Of
DIV. Sign, and Maud st, a .hcinicr 2
years old, owned by Mrs. Lawson.
After the exhibition on the streets
was over, a number Of the owners Of
1.-The colts: had them hitched to buggies,
: and exhibited their speed and gaits.
Among those. that attracted. special Mt
t%ention, were the colts Of Messrs. Dom
aid, Leslie, Pace, NJ orton and Bell.
There was quite n number Of persons
in town and all seemed to take an active
interest in tho colt display.
Without pretending to be competent

The sad and sudden demise of so good a man
as our late Vice-Presdent of the United
States, Thomas A. Hendricks, thousands of
our good and faithful home buyers are re-
joicing daily over the prospects of new and
original advertisements which appear regu-
larry on Friday of each week, which, they
claim, is guide that enables them to buy
goods at price not at or below cost but at
certain percentage of profit, that has created
confidence so mutual that nothing less than
an earthquake could shake 1t from their
minds. If you will take close observation
of our daily papers of to-day, and go back to
the time that we inaugurated the weekly bar
gain scheme, you can then see how many
imitators are trying to capture our ideas, but
that is an impossibility. for no one can steal
originalities In order to make room for our
display of Holiday Presents we shall continue
to cut our prices on staple goods.
