To NV Friends and Patrons:

The year 1897 is drawing rapidly to a
close ar,, we ali stand upon the threshold
Of new year. with all its possibilities
stretched out before Us, and We all should
remember that the successes or the nlsfors-
unes of the year will largely be in accord
with our own efforts; every individual must
be the architect Of their own fortune.
Last January we all started out bUovabt-
is, with bright hopes and bright prospects
bvfore Us, bpt the end is not IS we had
hoped for in the start Disappointment
has crossed many of our paths, but who can
tell but an allw:Se Providence but what all
these misfortunes have been for our good
Now let MS all put the year 1887 behind
u and think os the trials and isappoint-
meo.S of that year no more. Let Us all
look cheerfully to the year 1898 with bright
hopes and erdeayor to make the most OF II
that our chances ami our opportunities Will
permit. Let us keep our banner ever
stretched to the breeze. and whatever our
hands ind to 90, do it with all our might
and will Hold the plow, the axe and tho
hoe with frmer grasp than ever before,
and nsver look back IN SD unfinished fur
row. II We will only 90 our duties as we
find them and direct our efforts in the
right way all will be we'll. 1t matters not
how dark some of the days may seem, we
should remember that .Some days must be
dark and dreary," and at the same time re-
member that Behind the clouds the sun IS
Sill SHINING.
And now kind friends and patrons, IL
conclusion I desire to extend my hearty
thanks 70 you for the liberal support you
have given me the past year, notwlthstand-
ing the fact that the past Year has been dis
appointing in many respects. yet can say
iru,Lfaliy that have enjoyed the largest
trade the past year have ever done since
IN business ON my own account, and 1t is
Impossible for ,:ie TO find fitting words to
give expression to my gratitude and my
thanks for the confidence repoSed in Inc by
my friends.
It has been my objec. in the past and it
shall be il the future to carry hSst class
goods in all lines. bat at the same time
will be found to carry some shoddy stuff to
meet some competitors have to de:t: with,
but il shall be my aim, and shall impress
it npon those in my employ, to keep moth
ing back as to the uality and merit OF the
goods being shown, it matters not whether
It gains or loses me q customer. We are
all IL business to earn living Tor ourselves
and our families, but there IS purpose
which should prompt every man IN busl-
ness which is far nobler than the raking
together of dollars and cents in an unScrn-
puious way, AMI that is to merit the conn
tience of those you have to deal with. how
I long for the confidence and esteem OF
those am daily thrown in contact with.
Money is a power and has its weight IN o..
communities, but = good name IS better to
be chosen than great riches.
Again thanking You all for the confidence
aud the patronage bestowed upon me IN
tie past year, and wishing you all pros
porous New year, remain
Yours truly,

given here by the cadets of the South
Carolina Military academy, to which
the society swells were invited. Hoyt's
"a Stranger In New York was on the
boards at the theater and after the per-
formance Naval Cadet Peterson Of the
United States training ship Chase called
ct the theater and escorted Miss Char
lotte Crane, the leading lady Of the
play, to the ball, Peterson having PEE
viously been invited.
When they arrived in the dance hall
some OF the 400 proceeded TO raise a
furore and demanded of the chaperones
that Miss Crane be sent away. Accord
ing to the story told by eyewitnesses, a
chaperone requested Captain Hamlet
of the Chase to order Peterson to take
the actress away.
There was nothing for the cadet to 90
but obey. Miss Crane. whose real
name is Miss Bose of Springfield, Ills,
was very much mortified at the Incl
dent She had done nothing to call
forth such treatment and the gentlemen
who were present are very indignant
The affair has created sensation in
societT circles and the action OF the
chaperores is publicly condemned.
