The Racket Store is we'll filled with
just such goods as will sell fast. Mrs.

ness. Call On them when in town.
Mr.. Matt j. Pearsall, formerly on
THE CAUCASIAN staff, left Clinton
Monday evening for Cordele, Ga. Mr..
Pearsall is splendid young man, and
we commend him to the people of Cor
dele as being worthy of all confidence
and respect.
We suppose but few are aware of
Mr.. T. M. Ferrell's heavy loss in his
undertaking department. Very few
places no larger than Clinton carries
such full line of collins and caskets,
from the lowest grade to the best. He
has for years been able to furnish any
thing that could be had at first-class
undertaker's except metallic collins.
Mr.. Nj. Hanstein is in the Northern
markets buying another stock of goods.
He suffered heavy loss by the fire,
but he is live and energetic merchant,
and will soon have his store filled to its
uttermost capacity with another well
selected stock. He will serve his Gus
toners at the store formerly occupied
by Capt. D. A. Culbreth.

Some of our neighbors have been
telling that they had been instrumen.

the Democratic fold, but letters have
been received at this office bearing the
signature of the same parties, in which
they say that every such statement Ii
absolutely false. We have been re.
quested to publish the letters, but we
think it hardly necessary to shoot ev.
cry time we hear rustling among the
leaves
The Washington Literary Society
which was organized at the College
several weeks ago, is progressing fine

the largest and best rooms in the Col

A committee was appointed at the last
meeting to wait on our town friends te
see if they would contribute something
to help furnish the Hall. If you are
asked to give picture or chair, don''
turn deaf ear.
Some of our subscribers in North
Sampson will get Nos. and 2 of THE
CAUCASIAN at the same time. Last
Tuesday morning we took the county
mail to the post office, just as the mail
driver was preparing to leave. Mr.
Norris was standing talking with q
friend, and his friend remarked that
we were coming with the papers
whereupon he said. 81 must get away
from this place." and jumped on bis
cart and drove away. We begged him
almost piteously to take the papers
but he refused to take them. Mr.. Nor.
ris proved to have no more accOnmo
dalton about him than hog, and we
are sorry that we have to contend with
