TWO MEN IN A BUGGY.
To Say Nothing of the Bottle, winch
Almost Caused "a Tragedy.

Human nature is a funny thing the
world over. and though he may be IN
the most secluded Of spots the student
Of humanity may always find something
10 interest him. A gentleman, who re-
turned yesterday from Powhstan, told
a Dispatch reporter Of an amusing, YET
serious occurrence which came under
his observation Sunday, and illustrated
the perversity Of mankind.
Two men, both farmers. and near neigh
bors, were journeying 10 church IN a
buggy, TO which was hitcned u spirited
horse. \ bottle OF whiskey was slowed
away under the seat of the vehicle, and
both men INDUCED I'm its contents quite
frequently. AS they neared their destina-
ton q large log lying beside the road
frightened the horse, and the driver, who
was the owner OF the animal, told his
friend 70 debark and lead the horse past
the log. Upon his refusing 10 do so the
driver turned the reins over TO him and
got down himself. The horse reared once
or twice. and the now ACKNOWLEDGMENT
ened friend sprung out OF the vehicle
and threw the reins on the horses back.
The already -maddened animal then bolted
off. and smashed things Up generally.
This enraged tine owner OF the vehicle.
The men began cursing each other, and
soon fell 10 lighting. and after both had
been severely punished the owner OF the
horse found a big hickory stick near
him. He picked IL up ana whacked bis
friend(0 and almost paralyzed him. Both
finally saw the error or their ways,
Matched I'D a truce. and as best as they
could PATCHED up the buggy. ana when

Will find us with the biggest assortment of blue and black suits ever placed on sale. Remembering well how big the demand was last year for these goods We have pre- pared ourselves this year to suit one and all with the latest styles of Spring and Summer clothing at remarkably low prices. We exceedingly regret our inability to wait upon all who crowded our store last Saturday night the rush having been so great that our capacity was taxed to its fullest extent Why do We meet with such wonderful success? Here are some of the reasons: People have found out that clothing bought from Us wears we'll and looks the best, they are convinced it Is more convenient to pay for their clothes by the week than to pay spot cash. and being we'll satisfied with the dealings they had With us before. they have enough faith in uS 10 recommend Us to their friends as we'll.
