a Card TO the Public.

The impression having been
obtained by many that we would
in a measure, sacrifice our retail
business we desire to state that
our wholesale department will in
no way conflict with it. The lat
ter department is made neces-
sary to mOdate the de
mand from our customers for
such trade relations and it but
gives us greater facilities for ac-
commodating the public with
everything in our line. Our re-
tail departments larger than ev
er, better organized and we are
ready to serve the wholesale and
retail trade with the very lowest
and best prices. Rememb Der
this when in the market.

eminent, which places the total
cotton crop at 1862, 900 bales,
was received last Saturday the

out of the market, and prices
began to tum BILE There was a
decline of go points the first day
that the report was received, and
thef e has been an additional fall
ing off of so points during the
past two days. making a total
decline of 10 points since the

PREMATURE EXPLOSION
Man Went to Dynamite Fish and Is
blown to Pieces.

blown to Pieces.
Martinsville, Ind, May 24.-Scott
Gregory. an employe of the Davis
Cooperage company, ignored the adj
vice of his wife and accompanied John
Suter, a neighbor, to the river, with
the express purpose of dynamiting
fish. The men separated on reaching
a chosen spot, Suter going downstream
in order to catch the floating fish,
while Gregory remained to explode the
cartridge Soon after Suter heard an
explosion, followed by a cry from
Gregory, and upon investigation he
found his friend and neighbor had been
killed by a premature explosion, his
hands and a part Of his head having
been blown away, while other portions
of his body were mangled and torn.
1t is the supposition that he was stoop-
ing over, in the act of adjusting the
cap, when the explosion came. The
victim leaves wife and a three-year-
old son.
