Why do the People with One Voice say that
D. B. Hill Keeps the Best goods?
BECAUSE
They have used our furniture and it never cracked, blistered or fell down; used
our crockery, china and glassware, and found it as represented; lit our lamps and
had good light; used our silverware and sounded its praise; bought our clocks and
never got left; bought our window-shades when they didn't need thejn; bought
curtain poles for themselves and poor kin because they were so cheap; used our
knives and forks and praised the butcher; bought our pictures and got credit for
lots of good taste; hung our wall paper and didn’t know the oldjiouse.
Our stock of Royal Worcester, Doulton and Dresden China,
Hungarian, Faience ind other goods will
repay your inspection.
Coffins, Caskets, Burial Robes and Suits.

Tba (sraara of thla aocUon are all In

they UU yon, bat they bare gotten aome-
arbat naod to tbla elate of affaire, and
Inatead of giumbllng they bare goo#

■elenUooa work of tbelr IP
Aa a reault they all appear bappy, and
brighter UnMeere already dawning and
polailng to a glorioae euarlee la the 00
d'ataat fntnre.
It would be too much to aay that the
farmers are not bard pressed and In
need of money, bat jaat now leas gram
bllng and complaining of bard tlmea It
beard from them than from any other
date of people.
Aik nearly any planter In tbla secUoa
bow hli oropi are and be will tell you
that they aro flrst-claa*
Ask him about bla cotton acreage and
be telle you ba bae planted much lets
than laat year and Is going to decrease
again neat year. This le a fact, and
there le more com planted la Sumter
and adjoining oounUes than la yean. If
•rer before. The corn, except In n few
■mall spots where there bae bean little
rain, le In splendid condition, and the
crop promlaee to ba as good ae errfr be
fore.
Besides each crops, the people In this
•action an blessed with a magnificent
fruit country, and peaches aad apples
an more pleatlfal and better than they
bare been la years. Much
been cleared on [them, aad Unpeople
hare leaned to pat soon away for home
lumption. Tba large plum aad
berry crops, too, filled hmay cupboards
with splendid preserves and Jam.
And now cornea the melon*, one of
the beet bearings In yean, and besides
tin delight of eating aa many of the
finest aa nature allowed, quite a lot of
■pan change wee aad le being made by
everybody la tba eonnty, whether regu

growers bare leaned tbe secret of ship

The farmen have torn taught a les
son, at deer cost It le true, but already
the change la tbelr work Is noticeable.
They eoooomlie money and labor mon
than aver before, and ■ grumbling plan
ter lea bard thing to find In Snmtor
county today. We haw the beat coun
ty In the world and the best people In
the world, sad then’* no meson why
the results of this year’s work shouldn't
prove that our farmer* can make a little
more then a living aad that, too, with-
outtdepending upon blag cotton.
Money U tight, but the farmen In this
section appear happier and more con
contented then In many months, end If

Mr. D. P. Coogle, a prominent eiUiea
eed merchant of Ogletnorpo, was stabbed
tble afternoon by Wheeler Barfield, a
living oat In the country from Ogle

which was for sale In Mr. Coogla’s atom,
and which Barfield thonght was free,
ceased the trouble, the wound waa
severe aad pelnfol, bat not dangerous.
Barfield ran when ba did tbs cutting,

Sheriff Format and Deputy McArthur
did ■ bard end unpleasant day'* arork
yesterday. '
They transferred nineteen prisoner:
from tb# old jail into tba new. Tbe old
jell isn’t tbe cleanest spot In tbe world,
and tba new one is aa nest ae a pin. Tbe
prieonen were dirty, and tbe sheriff bad
to clean them np before patting them in
tbe new quarters.
Tint, everj prisoner bed bis hair
clipped aad bis beard shaved. Then be
was made to take a thorough bath, much
to tb* dlegnst of many of them. Each
waa furnished by tb* county with new
clothes and was made to put them on.
Then In a body they were marched np
to tba new structure and placed In cells.
Not aa article of tbelr old clothing was
allowed to be carried with them.
Tb* prisoners all looked bappy in
tbelr new quarters. Several of them
were asked bow they liked tbe change.
“It’s lot* better here, boss, 'ceptln' jo’
can't see oat an' see d* people lek we
oould at de old place."
However the change aeeme to suit
them nil'. Then an now twenty-one
prieonen In jail All an negroes, and
four of tbo number ere women.
Tbe flnt prisoner In the new jell
Louie Simmons, charged with cairying
led weapons. Ho waa locked np
Monday.

Wasbixotux, Jane 8ft—[Special ]—
The probabill ties an that thaStewart free
oolaage bill, on which tbe leasts will
vote at 3 o’clock tomorrow, will pnee
that body by a narrow majority. It will
most likely pass tb* bone* If It ever
renchee a vote. Tb* anti-free coinage
men will filibuster against It, and It can
not reach a vote without a down rule.
Its friends would stand a much bettor
to aerate such a rule than did
tbe supporten of tbe Bland bill.
If tba MU reached tba president be
would veto It aad would lose thereby
several silver npnbUeea states. Hi*
rignlag It would maka bis defeat certain.
Tb* Stswart bill provide* for tb* fra*
coinage at tbe present ratio of American
silver end crude foreign ell rer bullion as
It ooeaee from the mines.
