This body met pursuant to a call by

purpose of taking some action in re

that they had had with prominent mem
bers of the company who are building
the road, all expressing themselves in
such a way as to lead to the opinion
that if sufficient inducements were .off-
ered them hey would come this way.
On Motion the Committe on Bail

The Centennial.
. Promptly at 9 o'clock Tuesday morn
ing all the bells in town announced t''e
100th yearsiuce the inauguration of the
first President of the United States. The
'effect was somewhat magical. Many
1 people poured out of their residences or
places of business into the streets and
stood antautUFtf crowds as the air was
loaded with the sound of many bells, and
to congratulate each other on an event
which might well occupy the mind of
every reflecting one. It might be called
"the birthday of our present complete
system of government an inheritance of
the present generation, transmitted to us
by ancestors whose fame has filled the
world, and the reflex of whose work has
ameliorated the condition and blessed
mankind in every country on the earth.
It 1s a day for refreshing the memory on
the t'.mes,-circumstances and events of
the period celebrated, and recount the
mercies and blessings of Almighty God
in the most remarkable growth and de
velopment of a nation in the world's
history an auspicious day fit for joy and
thanksgiving; for amidst all the errors
and wrong deeds of politicians and par-
ties, we still possess the - essentials of
those great principles which distinguish
thisTrom every other government in the
world.
There were union religions" services
held in 'the Methodist church, in which
the Rev. J. T. Gibbs, Presiding Elder,
and Rev. Mr. Tnttle, of the Baptist
church, officiated. The attendance was
good, and those who shared the privi
leges of the occasion , were certainly am
ply repaid for tue time. Ine services-i
; from beginning to end were Jiighly in
j teresting and impressive. The inaprom-
tuc address of Mr. Gibbs, in a review of
the mercies and blessings of God in lead
ing our country through the past hundred
years in ruling over its progress aud
development in preserving its institu
tions of civil, religious and individual
freedom, and in extending its' influence
to other peopies and nations of the
earth, was happily conceived and im
pressively delivered.
The address of Mr. Tuttle had more
particular reference to -the future pros
pects of the country, as drawn from the
well-known principles of thegovernment
nnd-froni the general character of the
people and its material, political and re
ligious prospects, as predicated ou its
history under God, past and present. It
was a very able,- cheering and comforting
a ldress, well calculated to inspire con
fidence in, and thankfulness for, a prov
idence Infinitely Wise, whose purposes
from all eternity can neither be turned
aside nor defeated.
There were also religious scrviceMn the
Episcopal church in recognition of the
centennial occasion, but of which we arc
not prepared uTspeak more at length.
The musical selections and perform
ance, with Miss Lillian Warner at the
organ, was very fine and appropriate.

EYanffelist Pearson.
At 7 o'clock yesterday evening crowds
were on their wav to the compress to!
hear Evangelist Pearson's last sermon, f
and ai 7; 45 seats' could only be had in the
most distant parts. ; . Kev.. Scruggs con
ducted the prayer service.. At 8 o'clock
there were probablp 2,200 persons in the
congregation, and at that time the evan
gelist read as the basis of his remarks the
parable of "The Prodigal Son," as found
in Luke xv, 11-24. There were
estimated to be seventy-five persons who
professed conversion last night, being the
greatest in-gathering during the meeting.
. Just before the close of the
meeting Mr. Pearson delivered a short
exhortation in support of the Young
Men's Christian Association, and upon
hirf invitrtion several young manifested a
derire to join the association. A sub
scription was then taken fur its benefit,
at which nearly $1,200 was subscribed.
" Mr. Pear on iu hTs final words,
as a sort of farewell, said: I have, in
traveling up aud down the countrj', seen
manygood towns, but I have never
struck one with more generous, kindand
good people than' this town of Shreven
port." He also referred to the ministers
who have been associated with him in
the work, as having his love and respect,
and complitented the people as having
such pastors.
By private subscription a purse of $1,
100 was made up for the evangelist, and
quite a neat little sum for Mrs. Pearson
as a suttstantial token of the appreciation
of their labors during the past three
weeks. And all wish them God-sneed."

. Killed on ths Railroad.
At a late hour Monday night a party of
negroes, among the number one John
Underwood, of Newton, who had been
working at the railroad wreck at Third
creek, started up the road for Elmwood,
where they were to spend the night.
They had had access to an abundance of
liquor but Underwood was more under
its influence than any of them. He lag
ged behind several times, and dropping
in the rear, about half a mile "east of
Elmwyod, and being urged to keep Up,
made answer, "I ain't as drunk as you
think I am." - His companions left him
and went on and the next morning his
dead body was found by the railroad
track. His head had been cut off and
lay between the rails. One arm had
been cut off' and lay with the body on
the South side of the track. He bad evi
dently lain down on the outside of the
track, using the rail as a pillow. The
passenger train coming west and due
here at 1:55 a. in., killed him. Doubtless
the poor creature was uuconscious of any
event between his dropping to sleep and
his waking in eternity. Stalesville Land

quet - to-night to southern officers in
a return, to some extent, of the hospi
tality which the seventy-first had re
ceived from the New Orleans Tigers
eight years ago, and the First Virginia
last summer. It was expected that the
Old Dominion would be represented
by the First Virgiuia, but, finally a

Recent gossip has favored Frank Palmer
for the place. TVere has been no place
for which the claims were so strong and
puzzling as for this. Two sections claim
it on the sltong ground that they have
not thus far, received anything.
The Pacific slope asks for the appoint
ment of Mi . Osborne, and the South claims
it Mr. for Nichols for the same reason.
Aside from the geographic argument,
the latter gentleman ha3 the backing of
the Insh-Americans and the organized la
bor interests. There were, fifteen labor
leaders who went-into the last camnaign
and admittedly did good service for the
republican party. Among them were
Jarrott, UtcLiman, and Tim Lee. All of
these fifreeu leaders have indorsed Mr.
Nichols.

To the Clerks of the Superior, Criminal and
Inferior Courts i.i AprA Carolina:
Unt?l I shall have had time to proper
ly prepare the forni3 prescribed by the
recent statute requiring reports. ofCrim
inal Statistics, I request the clerks of the
courts having criminal jurisdiction to
transmit to this department certified
copies of their criminal dockets of each
term. They will enter thereon, as brief
ly as may be consistent with an intelli
gent statement of the facts required, (1)
the name, age, sex, race of the defend
ant; (2) the otfence with which he or she
is charged; (3) the juigement or order
disposing of the case.
These reports are required to be made
within twenty days after the adjourn
ment of each term.
The forms are now being prepared, but
as the printing and distribution may be
delayed ior.several weeks and the stat
ute imposes severe penalties upon clerks
for failure to make the reports within
the period designated, the method I have
here suggested will be accepted as a com
pliance with the law until more appro
priate forms are furnished.

The organizer of the Colored Farmer
Alliance in South Carolina, John D.
Norris, says: "It is by no means a polit
ical organization. The condition of
things and our present situation satisfy
us that our happiness and fortune are not
in politics. We have been so often de
ceived by political tricksters until our
hope in politics is lost. We have been
looked upon as political prey long enough.
We expect, through the Alliance, to let
all parties know that our race is no lon
ger a mission field for politics. We expect
toconhne ourselves to the interest ot
that which will build up our homes and
make our firesides more pleasant. It is
not working against the interest of the
white man, because anything that is
agaiust ' the white farmer would be
against our interest, and we have white
farmers in this country as well as black
farmers. The devilish trusts and com
binations mean destruction to the fanners
East, West, North and South. We are not
against the coaamon fa'r merchant. We
are only ringing the bell for the trusts
and combinations to come to breakiast.
We will rius for dinner later." The last
sentence is sunnosed to refer with signifi
cance to the political control the blacks
have so long been under.
JThe all-absorbing question of civil ser
vice seems to be almost a dead letter, in
the hands of the present administration.
The president is closely beseiged nightrj
and day to turn out the entire democrat
ic office holders. If ever there was a
man that needed quiet, it is an American
president just after he comes into office.

If there was no such thin? as credit in
merchandise, there would not be so much
t
difference in prices. It is by reason of
credit that the extremes of hi"h and low
prices are lounu in merchandise. The
man who sells on time must sell hi"h so us
to cover the losses sustained from those
who never pay. He must even make the
man who pays cash pay biir profits for the
reason he must rely for success on those
who par.
The greater the extent of credit the
higher the pricos, for the risk is propor
tionately increased. Take the risk all a.vay
from merchandise, reduce it to dollars and
prices go away down.
Now the extreme of panics, of failures
and of compulsions to realize spot cash
at any cost is all brought alout by reason
of credit. So that the system of credit
brings to the masses all the evils of high
priced merchandise, making them pay
double often what thev ought.
And while it brings defeat to hundreds
and thousands of merchants it brings vic
tory to him alone who is on the alert
gathering up from these slaughter pcn3 of
credit.
Now, this, is just the field we are occu
pying, we arc gathering from the disasters
of credit for spot cash. To enable us to
handle these values cut in the middle with
dollars we must sell them as we buy them
cheap for cash. One small profit and
stop.
We master our business and make our
money when we buy, then wc can afford to
price our goods in plain figures, cut them
away down and make our values make our
business. This is why our great house is
packed with buyers, why wc are able to
keep 40 hands busy through the summer.
Why, people come to us from every quarter.
Wc m.ke the victories of our little army of
buyers joint with our trade, until it is pro
verbial, "Here today and gone to-morrow."
coming, going, all moving on with bus
tling, busy, business life. Nothing like
selling goods cheap to move a business.
If we could not induce buyers with our
values, we had better close our house.
The law of mastcrv in merchandise is veri
ly the law of the best values for the least
money, therefore to sell our goods we must
make it pay buyers to rome to. us, wc real
ize the force of this thoroughly, and never
mark an article 8 cts. if we can take? for it.
Goods cheap enouyh sell themselves, and
as we apply the law to our business of the
very best we can give, there is no question
of competition alwut it.
Thousands of ihings are rolling in and
going out all the time, and all are cordial
fy invited to send for sam pies or see our
tremendous stock, gather up what suit
and what will pay you to buy.

"grab it" and if you ain't got cents enough' to know a bargain
when you see it, git yur nabur to come wid-ou and see how she
will buy as long as she has cents. Oh! I tell you we can paral
yze you on our prices and the rush still goes on.
Each day prices are cut on the different lines bound to sell
in sixty days. - ! - j
I have to-get a nice new dress,
Said Sal to sister Lou;
And with but little cash to spend,
What had I better do?
Th?s buying clothes just bothers me
The smartest gal can't tell
From looking at a piece of goods,
If 'twill wear jeal well.
And lots of these D. G. men 1 "
Are that keen on a trade,
They'll lie like sixty, any how,
About how cloth is made.
And some they stick the dollars on.
And then you have to Jew
Till they take off what they put on
Whispering, Just for you.
Now I don't like that kind oy wav,
And darn me if I know
With just the little cash I've got,
Where 'tis best to go.
Says Lou to Sal, I know your. fix,
For I've been thar, too,
But you'll get over that right ojiick
If you trade where I do.
Just try Van W ck; and you can tie
To every word he says,
And lay your money out with him,
And you'll be satisfied it pays.
His prices are way down below
The prices others ask ;
The folks that try to sell with him
I tell you has a task.
Low prices, quality the best,
Large stock and goods all new,
It's plain to see Van Wyck's the man
To sell to me and vou.
