The Best Time to Buy valuables.

This Is the dull season of the year. This
information is not exclusive or from inspi-
ration. Trade is pretty well as far as it
goes-but it doesn't go far. The purchasing
power of dollar now is something surpris-
ing, simply because there are more dollars
than trade. IN a word, we are now inclined
to give a very large dollars worth for 100
cents just to keep things moving. Within
the past few months we have added to our
stock III various ways, new ideas, new con-
ceits. new tricks and quips in jewelry and
SO on. We've got to keep up, you know,
with the strides of Inventive and artistic
excellence. Our stock is worth looking
over, and, as intimated, we 1OiH sell verV
close to move some of it, This is good
time to renew household articles. Solid
Silver table ware, superb plated ware,
ornamental goods For personal use or
adornment we offer line par excellence CT
Ladies' hae Gold, Silver and Diamond
Jewelry, Ladies Watches, Chairs and
Charms, Gents Watches and Jeweiry, etc.
All of these articles can be bought cheaper

The First District senatorship to be
Settled TODAY

The First district senatorial convention
will be held at Eden to-day. The Chatham
delegation will go up this morning, and the

There are ten delegates in the convention.
Chatham county has six delegates, Bryan
and Ehingham 2. Under the two-thirds
rule seven votes will be required to make a
nomination. The Chatham delegation be-
ing a majority in the convention can of
course adopt the majority rule and nominate
whoever it likes, if it sees fit to
do so, but the two-thirds rule is customary.
Mr.. Saussy's friends were counting last
night on his nomination as a certainty.

ICE GORGE AT ST. LOUIS.
si.soo.ooo of Steamboat Property In Danger.
Several Steamers and sarses Sunk


ST. LOUIS, January 31.-The ice gorge
which has formed on the Mississippi
River in front of this city, began to
move at midnight last night and drifted
down stream about 800 yards, lifting
two steamers out of the water. slightly
injuring them, when the immense
weight was checked and remained in
tact until 10 o'clock this morning, when
the January thaw loosened the great
mass and it slowly crashed down upon
nearly 81 100000 worth of property,
which it is now slowly grinding into
ruins. The gorge has been forming for
ten days, and every means have been
taken to dislodge it, but in vain. Great
cakes fifteen to eighteen inches thick
have piled upon each other, forming
solid mass from bank to bank
several hundred yards wide and from
eighteen to twenty feet thick. The
mild weather has rotted only the upper
layer, and beneath is flinty mass of
blue ice. ready TO grind the many
steamers and barges that are tied close
IN shore. Already several barges have
been sunk and the steamers Tamm,
Matte Bell and Hayes have been sunk.
The Hays is large excursion steamer,
the property of the Anchor Line. 1t is
total wrecks probably broken in two
and stove in. She lies with her upper
deck visible. She is a side-wheeler, val
ued at $4,000.
The Matte Bell is owned by the Illi-
nois River Company. She was a fine,
large freight boat. The Tamm was a
ferry boat. The wharf boat of the
Alton and Grafton Railroad Company
was swept away at IL o'clock. The
steamer City of Monroe snapped her
lines at noon and is a wreck. Captain
Mason and Mr.. Seeberger were badly
injured. The ice has stopped running.
and there is little chance for many
thousands of dollars worth of property
still below the gorge.
