BUSINESS NEWS.
Mr.. G. P. Lowrance is getting COM.
fortably established in his new store.
he has been placing his goods all the.
week; but has not, yet received his
entire stock. 81,
Messrs. Carothers & Williams have
been putting in most Of their time
since the purchase Of the York drug
store taking stock and purchasing new
goods, etc. They are now ready for
business right, and they intend to
keep at it:
!. Mr.. ]. M. Ferguson says it is no
longer "necessary to catch your rabbit
before you cook:it." he tries to keep
them already caught, killed and clean.
ed. He is doing the same with fowls.
'JMr. Thos. w. :speck had a cinch on
THE business in his line during the holi-
days. He knows .jewelry about as
thoroughly as any dealer in this sec:
ton, and he understands also the
demands of his trade. He was pre-.
pared, therefore, with. a big stock Of
high grade goods, just the kind that
was; wanted. Since the holidays, his
showcases look as if they had been
visited by burglars over night. But
that is not what is the matter. He
sold lots of goods and has not yet had
time in which to replace them.
The long announcement in THE EN-
oU1RER of Wednesday. gave the pub
lie pretty good idea of the inten-
tions of DR.. G. M. Kuykendal. The
doctor has been quite i'll for some
time; hnt is now recovering so rapidly
that he feels very much encouraged.
He is going to devote himself to the
more extended introduction of the diff
ferent medicinal preparations that his
late father made 80 well-known in this
section. Several Of these preparations
have become standard remedies In
most well-ordered households in York
and several of the surrounding coun-
ties, and DR.. Kuykendal has good
reason to feel that with proper instro-
duction there should be much larger
demand from all parts of the state and
country generally. He has some ex-
ceptionally good articlesin his line and
he deserves success with them.
James M. Starr & Company propose
to keep up with the procession this
year and will be strictly in it along
their line.
n. G. Strauss, who is always in a
reasonably good humor, is thoroughly
satisfied with his operations last year,
and especially with his trade during
the fall. He bought last fall larger
stock of clothing than he has ever
dared to carry before, and at one time
those who are pretty close to him, had
reason to believe that he was worried
over the prospect of getting rid of
them. But the big stock has been
moved. At least enough of it to make
the balance no longer cause for
concern.
The Ganson Dry Goods company has
been busy during the past week taking.
account of what it had on hand at the
end of the year. 1t has handled big
pile of goods this season, especially
this fall and winter, and Mr.. Jones
does not belong to that class that be-
lieves the end of all business prosperity
has come.
Mr.. T. B. McClain says stake out my
with regard to the rent
ing of the 'Happerfeld' place and the
sale of brick. 1 have sold all my brick
and rented the 'Happer6eld' place"
After that he hurried on to look after
his cotton mill and other operations.
He is always busy.
Mr.. B. N. Moore will probably not
commence the erection of his proposed
big cotton warehouse until next spring
or summer; but the warehouse is COM
ing, and it may be expected to have
quite a benefcent influence on the
business affairs of Yorkville.
Mr.. J. n. Riddle is still putting inl
his time trying to get we'll, and
