q. N. tomorrow, and then the couple

Who has visited Charleston without

of J. L. David & Brother on King

| If there are any in this section of the
State, then by all means when you 90 to
the exposition, don't fail to make a
visit to this establishment a part OF
YOUR trip. This firm are noted cloth
ers. no social function in the city is
ever held but their clothing and gents
furnishings form a large percentage OF
the fashionable dress. They keep a
magnificent stock Of clothing, hats and

They sell good goods of the latest styles,
and guarantee every article coming
from them.
There is probability of some OF
Uncle Sans money being scattered
through the State in the shape OF
bounties, due to the boys who received
honorable discharge in thes last war.
It seems that an old law intended for
the soldiers of the Union Army IN the
war between the States, has been res
surected and made to apply to the
soldiers of the Spanish-American war
allowing a bounty of 800, and $50.
extra for those soldiers who were sent
to foreign territory in time OF war.
Therefore the members OF the two
South Carolina regiments who got
honorable discharges are entitled to a
bounty of 500, and those who went to
Cuba and other foreign territory are
entitled to a bounty of $3.50. This
will be good news to the boys from this
county that went to Cuba. We would
suggest that the boys either communl-
cate with W. Boyd Evans, 1908 Law
Range, Columbia, S. c., who has been
keeping a watch out for these claims,
or have a meeting and select home
attorney to collect their money for
them, as there Will be whole lot OF
red tape in the collection of these
claims.
