The State Fair.

All NeWberrlans are interested in the
State Fair, election or 10 election. We
clip the following special to the News
and Courier from its Columbia cor
respondent:
Even before the election it would rot
be out of place to give an eye to the
State Fair, which is going to be a
shade better than ever before. The
first step towards its success has been
made, cheap rates have been secured
from that all-powerful commission.
The following circular letter explains
the matter:
Lines interested having agreed,
rates of one fare for the round trip,
plus so cents admission coupon, from
points in South Carolina and Augusta,
Ca, and from Charlotte, Wilmington
and intermediate points to Columbia
and return, for the above occasion, are
hereby approved.
Tickets to be sold Novembe II to Is
inclusive, with final limit November
II, 1894.
'Tickets may be sold to bona fde
exhibitors and help November {, 9 and
10, 1894.
1.-THE press OF the State will greatly
oblige all interested by publishing the
above infcrmation.n
The State Fair this year will take
place from the 18th to the 10Th Of No
vember. With good crops and poll
tics settled everyone will want to come
here. The rate, IS given by the COM
mission, makes no concession to exhi-
bitors as has been done in previous
wears

IMPORTANT BUSINESS CHANGE.
o. NJ. Jameson Buys Out Smith & Wearn
and Will Enlarge his Business.

Mr.. o. NJ. Jameson, the shoe and
clothing merchant of Newberry, has
bought the business Of Smith & Wearn
and will double bis room aud his stock
and will in a few days be prepared TO
offer some extra bargains in his line.
He will occupy his present store on
the corner and the one next door to
him now occupied by Mr.. 7. @. Boo
zer, who will move to the store at pres
ent occupied by Smith & Wearn.
Mr.. J. J. Lane is going to have the
stores to be occupied by Mr.. Jameson
completely overhauled and arranged in
modern style so as to be adapted to the
large business of Mr.. Jameson.
Mr.. Jameson has made success of
his business in Newberry and we be-
speak for him continued success in the
future. He is polite and courteous,
keeps good goods and can be relied
upon in all matters of business.
Messrs. r. G. Perry and W. F. Ewart,
his two efficient and courteous sales
men, will continue with him, but his
force will have to be largely increased
in order to wait upon his customers.
Jameson will have something to say
himself next week.
