tary Institute, preached last SUNDAY

Z The City Council has purchased the lot
which is now used as wagon yard, at che

able to erect substantial and modern city
hall, station house, ETC., on the lot.
Miss Sallie Bowie makes an important

well posted in the latest styles, and she
will take pleasure in showing her goods.

ton by Mr.. Eugene Cramer, Manager Of
the Opera House in Columbia, who GER.
tainly has made nice job out of it. The
scenery throughout is very pretty, and is

A meeting will be- held at Denver next
Tuesday in the interest of o cotton seed
oil rcill, which it is proposed to erect there
in time to utilize the next crop. A notice
in reference to the enterprise is published
elsewhere, and all who feel interested in
it are urged to attend. We hope the
meeting will be largely attended, as the
establishment ofall such enterprises will
add to the wealth of our County, and at
same time be good investment for the
Individual stockholders.
