o: the most successful favorites that
comes to the Pacific coast.
Miss Goodrich has given good grounds
in the past for regarding her with favor,
and that she will continue to do go there
is little doubt. She is simple and natural
and her humor is Of the most graceful or
der, and is closely allied to pathos. She
is different from any one else, her indi'
viduality being very marked, and in this
as much az her acting lies the secret o.
her success.

The Pacific is still the leading hotel in
Aberdeen, and if the citizens and general
public have any appreciation Of the
Lowry Brothers efforts to maintain a
first-class hotel in this city during the
panicy times through which we have
passed, it will continue, as it ought, to
lead.
The excellence Of the Pacific has been
no small factor in maintaining the reputa-
ton of Aberdeen as an energetic proges-
sive city, and these gentlemen who have
so indefatigably labored through "the
thin" are entitled to 1.-THE thick" now
that prosperity has returned. This hotel
is bettor equipped than any hotel in the
state in towns of this size, and is excelled
by but few Of the larger hotels in the

public can rest assured of the best &C.

The best that we gain from the pur-

Monthly, our Characteristic optimism.
We are engaged i'll achieving results,
and results Of the most permanent and
enduring quality. A business man may
achieve q fortune, but time will dissi-
pate it. A statesman may be the savior
Of nation, but how long do nations
live? knowledge has no country, be-
longs to no class, but is the might of
mankind, and it is mightier for what
each Of us has done. We have brought
our stones, and they are built into the
edifice and into its grandeur. My stone
is small one. It will certainly be for
gotten that it is mine; nevertheless it
will remain in place.
How different is the pessimism to-

was partly due to natural temperament,
but chiefly, I think, to the influence of
their respective professions. The subject
material Of the literary man is familiar

NO TAX EXTENSION.
State officials Send Out q Timely
Warning.

1t has been so customary for the
time for the payment of taxes to be
extended that people have begun to
take 1t as a matter of coarse. The
time for the payment tlls year close,
on December 81, but there has been
an unusual laxncSs in paying up. The
State officials ascribe this to the prob
able general opinion that the time
will again be extended.
The Governor, the COMPTROLLER
General and the State Treasurer each
spoke yesterday Of this rcmissncss.
and they authorized The statement
that there would positively be no cx
tension this year, for there was no
adequate reason why there should be.

THE RECORD OF A YEAR.

From the State.
This has been an abundant harves.
year in South Carolina and the far
mers may be said to havebeen blessed.
The year was in strange contrast
with the preceding one, particularly
as prices have been so much better
for farm products.
During the year just closed, while
the official figures are not yet at hand
the estimate by competent authority
is that the corn crop has been the
largest ever harvested in this State.
The total crop is estimated at 90
100000 bushels. The average yield
per acre has been Is bushels, against
12a last year. The largest previous
corn crop was about 100000
bushels.
1t is estimated also that the State
has furnished to the markets of the
world this year 638, 14S bales of
cotton, the average bale being $50
pounds. The acreage in cotton
during the year just closing is esti-
mated at 1857 900. The prices
paid for the crop are pretty generally
known. 1t is thought that the average
price per pound will work out to be
almost 6 cents for the entire crop.
Besides all this, grain crops were
unusually fine the past year, and so
was the tobacco crop, the lattor bring
ing excellent prices. Again the
smokehouses of the State have been
filled with sufficient hog and hominy
and like products. it is said, to feed
the entire State for two years.
1t may be added al o that South
Carolina has never had better fruit
crop year than this has been. The
fruit was of an unusual fine quality
and there was an abundance of it,
bringing good prices in the northern
markets. This is true also Of the
melon crop.
So taking things in all South Car
olina ends the present year in far
better condition than she has en| ed
any single year for halfa decade OF
more. There is every reason "hy
the masses of the people should 5c
able to pay their taxes now and then
have an unusually happy Christmas
and then begin the new year with
hopelful faces.

Carolina has fAade great progress on

Nav Women Preach?

Memphis, Dec. 8.-The question OF
women preachers was ruled on in
the Mississippi Methodist Conference
South, in session in Yazoo City yes
terday. Presiding Elder Weems of
the Vicksburg district reported that
Rev. Mr.. Grimes invited Mrs. Mollie
McGee Smell, the evangelist, to as
sist in conducting u revival. When
the presiding elder desired the en-
gagcment cancelled, Grimes stated
God would break his neck if he inter
fcred with women preachers. Bishop
Duncan ruled emphatically that the
Methodist church did not recognize
the right Of women to preach, but
adheres to the doctrine of st. Paul on
the subject. Considerable feeling
has been aroused on the question in
Mississippi and Tennessee, many
laymen taking issue with the bishop.
