THE R. Z. LoRYEA DRUG sLoRE.

Among our business institutions
none have settled on a stronger foun-
dation than The r. B. Loryea, drug
store, Isaac NJ. Loryea, Prop. Tuis
business was founded by the late Dr..
J. G. Dinkins, whose name was a
household word in Clarendon, and
whose kindly ministrations in the
sick room still fingers in the memory
of an extensive practice. The busi
ness later became known as J. G.
Dinkins & Co., composed of DR.. J. G.
Dinkins and NIr. Frank n. Wilson, the
demands of this growing business re-
quired additional help and the late
and lamented R. B. Loryea came
into The concern as q clerk. Mr..
Loryea was so close and attentive to
his business, that when Mr. Wilson
concluded to engage III other pursuits
the senior member of the firm took
Mr.. Loryea as his partner; the bust
ness continued to grow, then Mr..
Loryea finished his studies in phar-
macy. Death came along and snatch
ed away the senior member OF the
firm, which left DR.. R. B. Loryea sole
proprietor. His reputation grew as
years went on, and in time he became
one of the most prominent pharma-
cists in this State, and occupied a
high place in the professions asso-
citation. TIE business was made by
him so solid both financially and in
teerity, that it is fixture ii the esti-
nation of the people. After the de-
mise of DR.. Loryea, his devoted
brother, Mr.. Isaac NJ. Loryea, gen.
tleman Of sterling integrity and OF
long business experience assumed
charge, and is today keeping up the
business standard so highly fixed by
his lamented brother. Mr.. Isaac NJ.
Loryea is an intelligent business man,
and accordingly he places behind his
prescription case only the finest and
most accurate conpounder of medi-
cines he can employ without regard
to price, and the public can feel as
sured that prescriptions will receive
most careful attention. Mr.. Lory ca
carries full line of everything that
is handled in a first class drug store,
including all of the best patent medi-
cines. He prides himself on the pur-
ity OF his drugs and medicines, be-
sides handling a full line OF paints,
oils, window glass, fancy and toilet
goods, and a full line OF seeds, tobac-
co, cigars and stationery. For the
holidays Loryea has been specially
happy in his selections. Here is
where a beautiful line of china and
bisque ware can be found, vases and
ornaments of every variety. And the
finest candies on the market. Space
forbids description OF the holiday
goods that Loryea has now in stock.
DO not miss the opportunity of visi-
ting his store, and you will find every
thing will turn out as represented.
Miss Blanche Wells will assist the
young men in the selection of their
presents.

MANNING HARDWARE CO.

In speaking of business houses that
have ventured out on new lines, the
foremost in our town is the Manning
Hardware Company, the exclusive
hardware store. This concern is
managed by Mr.. Frank 2. Erwin
gentleman who has had q varied me-
chanical experience, and is peculiarly
suited for working in iron; in
the store of the Manning Hard
ware Company is found full line
of stoves, tinware and household
and kitchen supplies, no mechanic
need send off a tool, nor need any
mill man hunt for piece of machin-
cry, because the Manning Hardware
Co., keeps all kinds of tools and all
parts of machinery. The exclusive
hardware business was an experiment
at first, but under the well directed
management of Mr.. Erwin, it has de-
veloped into magnificent success.
In this establishment will be found
all varieties of sporting goods, and
hunters can be supplied here rs
cheaply as in any market in the State.

conducting his immense mercantile
and cotton business, and it was al
most too much for endurance, he has
therefore arranged to divide the
labors and responsibilities, and on
the lst of January his present bust
ness will be in the hands of able as.
sistants, who are known business men
with such money backing, that the
new firm will be as financially strong
as any firm in this section of South
Carolina. Mr.. Mcleod will in the
meantime offer his stock of general
merchandise at such tempting prices
that ne will have very little goods to
turn over to the big firm when new
Years day comes. We are glad Mr.
Mcleod continues in business, be-
cause his presence is O guarantee Of
confidence that is needed to support
an Institution and his continuance in
business ouly makes Manniug's and
Carendon's commercial standing the
greater in the business world.

LOUIS LEVI.

Young blood, warm with enthusi-
asm, adds much to drive away sloth-
fullness from any undertaking, and
this is especially true ofthe merchan-
disc business. because iu tl,is day OF
close competition for a man to sue
ceed it is necessary to keep
abreast of the markets and buy to
such advantage that he can pose as
leader. Louis Levi, since he open
ed upon his own account has built up
a business that lie must feel proud Of
and in this SHORT time, lie has already
made himself felt as a keen sighted
business man. His store is full with
splendid stock of general merchan-
disc, and his corps of clerks are never
lacking in attention to customers.
His selections for the holidays
is convincing proof that lie pro-
poses to be in the race to compete
for the holiday trade and when his
cash sales are made up it will be seen
that he has proven himself a worthy
competitor.

C. ". KENDALL.

Here is a man who never does
things by halves, with him it is race
from start to finish, and when be was
burnt out in October, the people
throughout the county feared that lie
would not re-eDter business. His
losses were severe, and to man OF
ordinary make up it would have had
disheartening effect, but his extern
sive patronage gave him such en-
courageing assurances that he I'M
mediately set about to 60 back into
business. Kendall went to New York
arranged his affairs and, not being
able to secure store large enough
to accommodate his enterprise, and
rather than to be outdone he took
the little store Lext to the post Office
|and filled it "chock-a block" he is
there now and every day new goods
are coming in and from morning un-
til night his store is full of customers
taking advantage of the wonderful
bargains Kendall is offering. There
is an old saying ''you can't keep a
working man down" and this is GER
tainly true of Kendall His store
contains all the novelties of the sea-
son, besides his general stock of dry
goods, clothing, shoes and fancy
goods. A buyer cannot go into this
store and come away empty handed.
Then in connection with this store
lie has two ladies constantly at work
trimming hats for the ladies. 1t can
be truly said that in the millinery
line Manning has no superior in the
State.
Remember Kendall is now, and
will be until his big store is complet-
ed, next door to the post Office.

Sixteen Dead, Sixty-Six Missing and

Great Values.

New York, March 1S.-Through the
incessant rain today, their efforts
hindered by choking smoke that rose
from the half quenched ruins, more than
200 men from the building, police and
fire departments, sought, but with only
half satisfactory results, for the bodies
OF persons who are believed to have
perished in yesterdays fire at the Wind
sor hotel. The efforts were concentrated
on clearing away the debris, and no
more bodies were taken from the ruins
today. The latest estimate tonight is
sixteen dead, sixty-six missing and
ffty-seven injured. 1t is believed the
men will be able to proceed with the
gruesome search tomorrow, with more
satisfactory results.
1t was learned today that Eldridge T.
Gerry had the building and furniture
that belonged to the hotel fully insured
and even the annual rental, from which
he Unidentified himself with policies
aggregating $4,000. Gerry carried
policies aggregating $595.o on the
building, and had an insurance for
100000 on the furnishings. In addi-
