A TRIO OF SPRING OPENINGS.
Davis, Roper & Co., o. b. Simmons Co.
The Hub.

Despite the unfavorble weather con-
ditions the Spring Openings Thursday,
Friday and Saturday of last week, at
tracted large numbers of visitors each
day, and the prevailing opinion was
that the displays simply surpassed in
loveliness and attractiveness the efforts
hitherto made by clever local artists.
1t would be out of the question for us
to undertake to describe the many
shaped and vari-colored hats. But they
are ''just lovely" all of them. And
the fine dress goods and fine trimmings!
If you were at the openings you beheld
all these things, and more too, in all
their glory; you no doubt decided upon
your bonnet and other things too.
On these opening occasions, or at
any other time, it is a genuine pleasure
to be shown into Davis, Roper & Co. s.
millinery department, where you can be
waited on by Miss Lille Thorn, the
head milliner, and her assistants,
Misses Mamie Dorroh and Mamie Arm
strong, or in the dry goods department,
with Messrs. w. HI. Anderson, C. M.
Babb, w. G. P. Robertson, Mrs. Mary
Prentiss, Misses Rosa Hudgens, Bessie
Crews and Sarah Dorroh in charge.
Same thing at o. B. Simmons Com
pany, where Miss Julia Fretwell, who
is in charge for the third season, and
with the aid of Mrs. Thomas Downey,
Misses Hattie Boulware and Lizzie
Switzer, the millinery business goes
merrily on.
Now turn to The Hub. Here you are,
with Mrs. S. l.. Nelson in charge, and
efficiently assisted by Mrs. H. b. Grit
ton, Misses Clara Switzer, Marie Drum
mond, Fannie May Wright, Ethel Sulli-
van and Eunice Riddle.

WILL OPPOSE NEW COUNTY.
Attorney Pilgrim Wants to Present
Argument Against the Scheme.

Columbia, April 3.-S. M. Pilgrim of
Woodruff, Spartanburg county, yester-
day wrote Gov. Hayward that he had
been retained as attorney for the oppo-
nents of the proposition to have new
county created with Fountain Inn as the
county seat. Mr.. Pilgrim asks that he
be allowed to present argument against
the proposition whenever the petition
shall come up for consideration.
Gov. Hayward has received no petit
tion from the people of Fountain Inn,
although the report has reached him
unofficially that such movement is on
foot there. The proposed new county
will be made up, if made up at all, of
parts of Greenvil!e, Spartanburg and
Laurens counties. The legislature
passed an act permitting the people of
Fountain Inn to vote on the question of
issuing bonds for building court house
and Jail, but this election has not been
ordered
