THE $50 O'CLOCK CLOSING.
The Retail Dry Goods Clerks and the
Early Shopping Movem ent.


The early closing movement among the
retail dry goods houses will go into effect
June 1. From then until Sept l the retail
dry goods stores will close at $50 o'clock,
except on Saturdays. The movement is in
the interest of the clerks for the purpose of
allowing them some time for recreation and
pleasure. In order to further the move
ment and enable the merchants to close at
$50 o'clock, it is necessary for ladies to do
their shopping earlier in the day.
The greater part Of the days shopping is
over with by l o'clock. There is very little
done between l and 80 or o'clock and
then, what the clerks call the late shopping
begins. This late shopping is what the
clerks want to get rid of. The effort has
been made before, but without success.
1--WE have often had to close up with Gus
| toners waiting at the counters, 'said one of
| the leaders in the early closing movement
yesterday" and have had to let them out
through the back entrances, and all they
have bought, perhaps, is paper
of pins. We do not believe
that the ladies think of these
matters, and if they did the clerks would
receive more consideration. | can recall
more than one instance where ladies in buy
| ing some small thing that they could just
as we'll have bought some other day, and in
| looking at goods winch they had no lnten-
ton Of buying, have broken up an after
noon's pleasure pre- arranged with some
pecuniary liabilities We do feel after the
inhalations of a hot summers day and
| those peculiar to this business) the need of
| recreation, and earnestly beseecb of our
ladies that they be more considerable"
In a communication to the MORNING
NEWS, urging the ladies to do their shopping
earlier, lone of the Clerks" writes: There
is good old maxim which teaches us not to
put off for tomorrow what can be done
to-day" The same is applicable to the early
closing movement. Why put off your pur-
chases for afternoon when you can make
| them in the morning. The latter is a far
more desirable time, the clerks are better
prepared then to show goods, and there is
| not one half the vexations that occur late
| in the afternoon. OF course wa do not ex-
pect all the shopping TO be done in the morn
ing. We only ask that the clerks be given
more con iIe, alton during the hot summer
months"

HE MUST SEE HIS GIRL.
"One-Eyed Morgin" Put Out of Harms
Way for Awhile.

William Smith, colored, alias "One-eyed
Mongin," figured in Justice Russell's court
yesterday, charged with cursing and abus-
ing Meyers Lotke, in Coopershop lane.
"Mongin" is a yellow boy with several
gashes on his face, scanty beard and one
eye. When he was found guilty and was
unable to make bond, he seat for his girl
He told the officer that he couldn't go to
Jail without first seeing his sweetheart.
The officers allowed him that privilege,
and in few minutes strapping negro wo-
man as black as tar. danced into the court
room. She and "Mongin" withdrew to a
corner of the room and held a lengthy
consultation, after which she flirted out
of the room and presently returned with a
lunch and some pocket change, and "Mon-
gin" was ready to go to Jail. After be was
gone the woman took chair in the Office
and began to review the matter.
"Oat niger is no mo- guilty den is, an

Buy the Right Medicine.

The day of teas, decoction, infusions, and
such slops has passed and is being replaced
by fluid extracts The latest United States
Dispensatory says in this connection:
Both decoctions and infusions have now
become almost obsolete, and deservedlY so"
In view OF the allowed advanced idea and
stubborn facts we beg to call attention to
the Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium
Compound which has gained such noto-
riety, and is undoubtedly the
GREATEST BLOOD PURIFIER
of the age. Has cured more rheumatism,
Syphilis, Scrofula, Old Sores, Skin Diseases,
Blood Taints, ETC., in the last six months
than all the other Blood remedies on the
market. 1t is no humbug, no secret, but a
preparation composed of the fluid extracts
of Prickly Ash, Poke Root, Queens Delight
and Sarsaparilla, with the iodide of
potassium added. Physicians indorse it
as a sendid combination. 1t is powerful
tonic and builds up the system rapidly. If
you are weak and feeble try one bottle.
Take P. P. P. and gain flesh and strength
rapidly. 1t is the best remedy for malarial
poisons, and will cure chills in every in
stance. As a tonic and regulator for
females who are in low state of health it
has no equal. Try one bottle and be con-
Yinced.

MAY TIDE ON PELICAN BEACH.
Narrow Escape of George Dynecker
from a Watery Grave.

AOA4 q w dbCAJ 6AoSO'
George Dynecker, an invalid, who has
been recreatlng at Tybee Island, came
very near losing his life there, through his
own carelessness, on Friday afternoon. He
had strayed far from the safe beach Of
Tybee proper and was gathering shells on
Pelican beach. He was so absorbed In the
pursuit of his collections of mollusk curiosl-
ties that he did not hear the low swish OF
the rising waters, that most dangerous of all
the tides of the season, the May flood tide.
When he did look up the waters were upon
him. He tried to wade over to Tybee, but
being unfamiliar with the character OF the
beach, he soon got in deeper water. Turn
ing around, he went back TO Pelican beach
and climbed on top of the deck-house OF the
schooner Hattie n. Cove, which was
wrecked off Port Royal two months ago,
and which had drifted on Pelican beach.
The perilous situation of Mr.. Dynecker
was discovered by Tybee Island
fisherman named Grogan, and he
took a man and started in
boat to the rescue, A heavy southeast
wind was blowing aud it was nearly two
hours before Dynecker was got off. He was
nearly worn out with fatigue and appre-
hension, and wet and strengthless, he could
not have held out much longer. 1t was
perilous position to De placed in, and
nothing could have saved the man from
drowning except the friendly wreck drifted
by the tireless tide where it availed him a
ready refuge until rescue was at hand

The little 2-year-old son Of Henry Will

wright cotton mill some time ago, died
yesterday. Williams said that the burns
were much worse than was at first
thought. Beside severe burn on
the leg, thigh and breast, the
child received an inward burn which
ultimately resulted in It's death. Williams
says that he will take legal steps either
against the city or the owners of the Ark
wright mill. He states that formerly the
brook made by the water passing away
from the mill was inclosed, and when the
hot water was turned off 1t did not en-
danger stock or people Recently the fence
was removed, and nothing remained as a
protection against the scaldlng stream.
