If rimiUKli (ll.MYli
Are now rceiving and opening his week the biggest, the choicest, the latest stock o
uew goods, comprising th e latest novelties in dress goods, trimmings and fancy
goods, clothing shoes, etc, ever before upon exhibit in the city of Jackson.
ROGRE3S ON AND UPWARD” OUR MOTTO.
The taste of the people must be met, and The New York Store folks are the ones
equal to the emergency,
NOT ONLY THIS, BUT PRICES WILL FIGURE
largely this winter. Bearing this in mind, it his been our main desire and highest
ambition to buy cheap and to sell cheap, underbuy and undersell. With this idea
burning in us, we have waged war, fought battles and came out conquerors and will
►bow a line of goods, in every line, at prices the like of which has never been known
befoie. All we ask is that you look and see and price.
OUR MILLINERY DEPARTMENT
Is even more complete than ever. Mrs. Thurman’s excellent taste will be readily
iccognized, as she in perscn made all the selection. While in New York she attended
several large openings and is “up” on the very latest things of the season. The La
dies are cordially invited to visit onr practically new rooms and see what it is impos
sible to tell in such short space.

MI!. O. L. WELCH SHOT.
Early Tuesday night Mr. Welch
returned home, and seeing a light in
his store, near his dwelling, Opened
the door, when two negroes, who
were inside, fired on him, one ball i
pacing through his right hand and
the other graziug his right temple,
lie could not tell who the thieves
were.
MULE AND BUGGY STOLEN.
On Sunday night some thief or
thieves went to the home of Ben En
glish, 001., near Weaver’s mill, hitched
hit mule to bis buggy and drove away.
It seems t hat they expected to take a
trip and return before day, butjust
b< fore reaching English’s homo the
buggy broke down, so they unhar
nessed the mule and turned it ioose,
leaving the buggy and harness in the
road.
HOME INDUSTRIES.
Every man who is a lrien l to
J tcksoti, or a friend to his country,
and who believes in developing his
own home should carry their cotton
need to the Jackson Oil Mill. They
pay out seven thousand do’iars
annually to our own laborers to be
spent with our merchants, aad to
furnish occupants for houses to
rent by our real estate men, and
one thousand dollars to our farmers
for wood that could find o market.
It is suicidal to refuse them your
patronage. They work about two
thousand tons of seed each year,
aid could work twice that amount,
and should have every seed that is
raised in. Butts county. Why
should we ship our seed and pay
freight on them e.ud freight on the
fertilizers back to us when we could
have oir seed worked at home?
What would the farmer* think of a
man who would order all his corn
from the wee* when they had pleaty
to sell at bumf? Let’s all do ngh
about this matter and stick to home
industries.

A FEW WISHES.
BY H. P. HIGH.
When I think of the many Prodigal Sons,
Who leave their kind parents to roam,
I wish I could truly convince them
That “there's no place like home ”
When I think how they use strong drink
To drown their so-row and eai>,
i wish I could persuade them to drink
Of the beautiful fount of prayer.
When I think how they reject the gospel,
The sweet promises to young and old,
I wish I c uld get them to consider—
“ The half has never yet been told.”
When I think how Satan deceives them,
And plunges them into sorrow and sin,
I wish I could show them their folly
And induce them to “let the Stranger in.
When 1 think how thier dear mothers
Over their disobedience weep and pray,
I wish I could explain how they’ll regret it
When she shall have passed away.
When I think how that disobedience
Cauaes to regret, mourn and sigh,
I wish they would ask Christ for pardon,
And try to meet her in Mansions in the Bky.
