In its report on mileage. the commit.
tee on Privileges and Elections a few
days ago reported what each member
of the House of Delegates was entitled
to on the mileage basis, and the figures
are interesting. not to say startling.
The Delegates from Berkeley live
farthest from Charleston, according TO
the report. their allowance being for
$50 miles each. The Delegate from
Jefferson makes the journey down
n back in SOC miles, while several
show more than 500 for the round
trip. Marion county delegates receive
allowance for 57b miles, which shows
that We live nearly three hundred
miles from the State capital. That

NO USE TALKING THE GOODS

PRICES.

In to-day's issue Of the paper you
will find announced the Crushing OF
prices" at the store OF j. L. sapper.
Mr.. sapper does not put on a sale very
often but when he does he makes the
prices so Interesting that a crowded
house Is sure to fall to the lot of his
store for several days. Mr.. Sapper
occupies a very favorable position for
business being located at the corner
of Jackson and Jefferson streets and
having the only store of the kind on
Jackson street, and now being so near
the postofice makes it a very con-
yenient place to trade.
Mr.. sapper has been planning for
this sale for several weeks and recent.
" made a trip to Pittsburg where
some attractive purchases were
nade to add life to the sale.
An extra force of sa1espeople will
be on hand to wait on all Corners and
Mrs. sapper, who is an adept Sales
lady herself. is always ready to &C.
commodate the customers and espe-
cially the ladies who find that she can
render much service in assisting them
in making selection of their goods. A
good deal of stress is thrown on the
shoe prices and 1T Is not usual that
you find such staple brands Of shoes
as the w. L. Douglas at sale prices.
