I' WILLIAMS BBOWN.' ' During the winter months most of us become more or less exercised over the matter of stoves and all that the work implies, so the Watchman report er! has taken some pains to acquaint himself with the stove and kindred lines of trade here. Upon bur . note book are some items . concerning ' Capt. Brown, and they are to this effect. The gentleman in question is from Fay etteville, this State, and in 1840, while yet a boy, he tame to Salisbury, his father the late Allen Brown, then re siding here. In 1841 or thereabouts, he began learning the trade of a tin and copper smith with his brother, J. D. Brown, and about 33 years ago he en gaged in business upon his own account. At the outbreak ot the late war he en listed and was commissioned 3rd Lieu tenant in the 4th N. C; nine months later he resigned, returned to this sec tion and raised Co. B of the 57th N. C, with which' he went to the front with the rank of; Captain", and he re mained in the service until shortly be- tore the surrender. In the meantime he had maintained his business here, and after the war he again assumed charge of it. He has had several part ners, but tor now nearly a year he has been alone, i He has occupied the same location for, upwards of thirty years. Capt. Brown usually empio s three or four persons and besides doing a general rane of tin, sheet iron and copper worl has a considerable busi ness in the pair of stills. He also does such outside work as roofinggut tering,' spouting, &c. In stock he car ries a general line of cooking and heat ing stoves from leading foundries of Albany, Philadelphia, Louisville and Nashville, and in heaters he, makes a specialty of the "New Baltimorean" and the "Sunshine -Fire Place Heater,' the latter made by K. Painter & Co., of Philadelphia, and one that can I e pro nounced to -be without a superior if having an equal. Prices in all lines are extremely rtfcisonable this year, and Capt. Brown has had a most satisfacto ry business thus far. He looks upon trade prospects as being very fair, and old acquaintances and new will find him ready as ever to give value receiv ed in the case of every purchase made at his store. . : W. SMITHDEAL. None of the business men of Salis bury are. better or more favorably known to the people of this and adja cent sections of, cou ntry than the gen tleman to whoioi we now refer. Though yet, comparatitely speaking, a young man, he has for a long term of years been identified withthe m?rcantile in terests of this his native town, and he has ever J?eri known as a man who possessed progressive ideasi Those ideas have been of a practical charac ter, too, and have been productive .of practical results. . Mr. Smithde'til entered upOnHhe ac tualities of mercantile life in the year 1850 as a clerk for J. J. and J. A. McConnaughey, general merchandise" dealers, and he continued clerking' un til enlisting as ,a private soldiei; in the Fourth North' Carolina regiment, in 1801, In 1802 he returned from the front and from that time on until the surrender he filled the position of trans fer agent here, at Chester and Augusta. In 1805 he went north,' realizing that at that time there were; better opportu nities for securing remunerative em ployinent in that section than here jat his old home, and he soon , secured , a position witlua carpefc'house of Phila delphia. , Subsequently he entered ?the employ of a boot and shoe house in the (Juaker City Jand traveled for it.' ' Upon returning tojSalisbury- Mr. K Smithdeal opened a boot '' and shoe ' house ;here. iVhen he qtut that' business he became a salesman for R. Crawford & Brb., general dealers, 'and soon after became associated with Crawford & Heili who opened ageiieral hardware house. In 187 )-Mr. Smi!hd?j 1 organized the firm of Smithdeai Barnharut & Co., the co partners being himself, C. TJ Barn hardtandPJM. Barnhardt. In 1873 " . 1 ' , : 1 - - .

Taylor, salesman, 'who has D?rn bim since 1879, and by Mr. ?a V .Barnhardt, bookkeeper and sales man, who was one of the old firm of Smithdeal, Barnhardt & Co. ' K , The. visitor to MH SmithdeaFa place of business will agree with tis that it has quite as much the appearance of a 'wholesale as of a retail' house,' and we have no doubt that fully -one half ? of the annual, trade in the hardware and kindred departments are at , .wholesale. And so they should be. As nearl v as possible Mr.; Smithdeal makesf his pur- cjuitaes :ox siock airect irom leading manufacturers of the country and in such quantities that he can duplicate Miciunuiiu, naxioiie or oiner jo Doing bills to advahtage. His expense ' ac coitnt is comparatively pmall-is an nual -sales are large-and though he does no traveling for orders yet; coun try merchants have found out that he can and does fill orders at such rates and with' such promptitude as to make the house a desirable purchasing point. Extremely large stocks for a town the size of this are carried, and complete assortments are shown of everything relating to heavy; or builders' hardware, tools, paintsoils, glass, cutlery, &c. wagon and carriage, material, and blacksmith's supplies 'generally receive careful attention, and by looking close ly to all the .details of trade the house maintains its efficiency. : ... Two very important features of 'Mr. Smithdeal's business are, farm machnj-' ery and wagons and carnages. He sells engines and boilers made b Skin ner & Wood, of Erie, Pa., and by the Westinghouse works of Shenectady, N. Y: He also represents the famous Geiser Manufacturing Co.T of Waynes boro, Pennsylvania, and ; the Hagers town (Md. ) Engine and Machine Com pany a company (hat is especially noted for producing the best clover huller ever offered the people of this or any other country. Threshers, reapers and mowers and other implements or machines from leading factories are carried, and particular attention is paid to the Avery and Dixie plows. It is a fact apparent to all that our farmers are rapidly learning tnat machine labor is cheaper and better than manual labor, and Mr. Smithdeal has certainly had very much to do in bringing about this improved condition of things. We visited his carriage repository the other day and were astonished at the number of vehicles he carries in stock. Besides the wagons and bug gies set up and standing upon the floor were stacked away great piles of boxes, running gear and, the other component parts of vehicles and in this depart- ment alone there cannot be much less than $3,500 to &4,000 of stock carried We noticed Columbus and. Cortland work; also from the Whitney Co. of Syracuse, IN. Y., and the world famous Studebaker and Tennessee farm wagons in other words, they are all reliable goods such goods as the house can sell without prejudice to jts reputa tion. We might go into further details relative to Mr. Smithdeal's business but the .. foregoing will suffice to con vey an idea of it, and that is all we can hope to do. We tan add this! however: Every visitor to the house will meet with a cordial reception, whether he proves a purchasher or not. ' J. M. BB0WN. "Brown's Variety Store" is an estab lishment that one can better appreciate by visiting than by reading discriptive sketches of it. Upon counters and shelves and in all manner of recepta cles are a thousand objects, each of which has its uses and purposes. There are family groceries and . provisions, there are lamps and; lampware, crystal and Bohemian ware; fancy articles of one kind ,and another; toys in profus ion; there' are foreign and domestic fruits in fact the list is almost an endless one, and it rather puzzles one now Mr. Brown can remember what he has or has not in stock. ' The house as it now is presents Va rious stages of growth. Its beginnings were comparatively small, and the ad vance it has made has been in accord ance with the well known and recog nized maxim that uthe gods help those who . help themselves," and if ever a merchant in Salisbujry has worked with a will toward the upbuilding of his business, .Mr. Brown is one. He is a young mariahd a Native of this town. He began irade life here . as a clerk for "Foster & Horah, and when he quit that house, ten years ago he established his present business. He has had no part ners arid has made ho change ot loca tion. He has manfully paddled his own canoe, and by the exercise of tact and sound judgment he has. been en abled to sail in deeper waters from year to year in other words the vol u me and scope of his trade has ex panded. ; . . "We like . to chronicle, the success of our younger merchants they will be the old merchants of the future, and we like, to see. them laying the foundations blioad and., deep and strong . for. future enterprises. to rest upon. - " ( Continued next tceek.) on Jany 25th.
