He 10 Remembered Here.
The Augusta Chronicle, Of Monday,
contains a paragraph to the effect that
Hugh Costello died in Augusta, on Sun

ouIRER at the time. He was big, strap
ping fellow who frequently advertised his
fighting qualities, and the probability

A Cure For Warts.
II have a sovereign remedy for warts
on horses, which, If you will publish 1t,
will be of great value to great many
people," remarked Mr.. 8. A. McElwee to
a reporter few days ago. "You must
just make paste of cobalt and common
molasses, wash the wart thoroughly and
apply the paste every "a hours. I have
known the remedy to be tried in dozens
Of cases, and I have never known it to
fail. Unless the wart should happen to
be where it will be rubbed by the harness,
the horse need not even lose any time
from work on account of the treatment"
It Is Coming.
It is settled at last that Yorkville Is to
have q town clock. The town council has
made good its promise and placed an or
der with the Howard Clock company, of
New York, for first class timepiece that

to reach Yorkville within the next few
days. There are to be three dials, each

council to have the clock put up by local
jewellers, and it is hoped that everything
will be in readiness before next court.
Business Is Booming.
'The Carolina Buggy company has
shipped six car loads of buggies during
the past week." remarked a gentleman
who is in position to know, to the report
er a few days ago. The statement was
quite interesting, and the reporter took
occasion to follow the matter up. AS the
result of inquiries, he learned that the
business of the company is better right
now than it has been at any time in its
previous history. During the past three
months the force Of hands has been dou-
bled, and is still increasing, orders are
coming in by every mail, and the man
agement is more enthusiastic than ever
before.
