CHARLES F. CRISP,
of Somter.
A Boston company composed of
negroes formed to import West
India fruits into the United States
has come to grief. The manager
went to Jamaica and was so extrav
agant as to psv |G per week for
board. When he got to New York
with a lot of fruit he didn’t have
money enough left to pay the duty.
The courts and lawyers are now
trying to untangle the aifairs of the
concern.
Among the new applications of
eotton is its use, in pert, in the
construction of houses, ths materi
al employed for the purpose being
the refuse, which, when ground up
with about an equal amount of
atraw and aabestos, is convened
into a paste and this is formed into
large elabs or bricks, which ac
quire, it it (aid, the hardness oi
•lone and tarnish e really valuable
building stock.
Henry W. Oliver, of the Arm of
Oliver Brothers and Phillips, Pitts
burg, wss one of the Tariff Com
missioners, end stoutly contended
for high protection as a means of
maintaining the wages of American
labor. A few days ago his firm
ordered a reduction of 12$ percent,
in tbe wages of their 3,500 labor
era, to take effect on tbe 1st of
October. Tbie reduces their pay
to about 98 cents per day; and this
notwithstanding the fact that the
tariff as now In force Is moro pro
tective than even the commission
recommended.
In 18T0, the Ootober election in
Ohio wss looked to with almost as
much interest as that of Tuesday
last, in the belief that It would
have a great efleot on the remit of
the Presidential election in No
vember. Tbe Republicans carried
it by 6,686 majority, but this did
not diseourtge the Democrats eith
er in Ohio or in the other States.
The Republican ma|orily in Ohio
in November of that year was only
7,516—an inerease of less than a
tbonsand, and the Democrats car
ried beth Indiana and New York
in November.
Another crank has crested a
sensation at Washington. An old,
gray headed man,dressed in a long
blue coat, fattened around the
waist with a piece of rope, went up
to the While House on Mondsy,
carrying a huge wicker basket, a
large bundle of bullruehes, a epade
and a new ax. lie eaid the basket
contained egg plants for the Presi
dent, the ax to kill the Q. 0. P.
with, the spade to dig its grave,
and the bullruahes to decorate its
iott resting place. He was refuted
admission to the mtusion, and be
came to violent in hit conduct that
s detective was telephoned for, and
the old gent was carried to the sta
tion house and tarnished with a
night’s lodging at the expense of
the government. It it time iorthe
grand old party to go when cranks
want to kill It with an ax, and
ns Its grave with tuUrmUii.
At the Qeneral Council of the
Cherokee Indians of North Caroli
na, Georgia, Tennessee and Ala
bama, which was held at Cherokee,
Swain county, N. C-, last week,
nearly 3,000 people were represent
ed, having among their number
ministers, lawyers, teachers, mer
chants, mechanics and farmers.
Many oi them have been successful
in business and a few have made
fortunes. The leading men of this
eastern or.tnch of the tribe keep
well posted as to what is going on
in tbe Territory, and appear to
have a great love for the nation.
The Irish Americans, of Briston,
Pa., performed a weird rife Thurs
day night. A large number of
copies of Patrick Ford’s Irish
World bad been distributed gratu
itously among them. A large bon-
fire was built and one after another
the Irishmen marched by and de
posited copies of the paper on tbe
blazing heap, and ns each one
made his offering to honor and
Democracy be used in mockery the
words of J. G. B., “Burn this.
The ceremony was concluded with
gronns lor Patrick For.l nd three
cheers for Cleveland .and Hen
dricks.
If our Democratic friends in this
congressional district think that
their candidate can lie elected
without any special work, and tbe
Republicans are doing nothing,
they may be awakened from their
lethargy the day after the election
by the tones of a big Republican
Bell. It is time that the Democrats
of this district were at work organ
izing their forces.
If the Republican majority of
Ohio keeps on dwindling down as
it has for the past two days, it will
turn out to be a Democratic victo
ry- ■ '
Now let the Democrats of the
Third district take their eyes off of
Ohio and look aiound and see if
there isn’t some work to lie done
at home.

Tottered and Fell in a Day!
Specially was this true of many large and celebrated Clothing
manufacturers who had made up numerous stocks from materi
als bought on credit. These manufacturers placed their faith
on lively and profitable September trade, absolutely relying on
it for funds to meet their maturing paper, which they had given
for piece goods, but the trade did not come, the continuous
warm weather and no customers cooked their “goose,” and there
was nothing left for them to do hut to fail and turn their goods
over to an Assignee. It was had for them, but it is in your
power to make it good lor you, lor, as usual, when good goods
are to be sacrificed we are always on hand. Our Mr. Joe
Waxelbaum was there, and notwithstanding the fact that we
were already prepared with a stock of Seventy-Five Thousand
Dollars, we bought Thirty-Three Thousand more in Boys, Chil
drens and Men’s Clothing, Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Fancy
Goods, Corsets, etc., at prices varying from 30 to 60 per cent,
of the actual value. Promptly at 8 o’clock Monday Morning

and it will be to the interest of every one in this city or country
to be on hand, for at the prices we propose selling these goods
you were never offered them in the history of the dry goods,
clothing, boot and shoe trade.
