The Circle is studying

and its domestic customs
re discussed yesterday.
The members of Union Lodge
are again considering the matter
of improving their valuable pro
perty on Main street. Their
idea and desire is to erect a hand
some front to their building and
to re-arrange the ground and
second floors so that the stores
would be valuable stands and the
second floor could be used as
good office sites. Mr. J. P.
Stansel, who is a member of the
lodge, has had a plan prepared
which is beautiful and if carried
into effect would give this order
one of the handsomest buildings'
in the State. The matter is being
considered and the improvement
will, in all probability, be made.
Beautiful Complexions
Are spoiled by using: any kind of
preparation that fills the pores of the
skin. The best way to secure a clear
complexion, free fro:u sallowness,
pimples, blotches, etc., is to keep the
liver in good order. An occasional
dose of Herbine will cleanse thebowels,
regulate the liver, and establish a
clear, healthy complexion. 50 cents at

Gilmore and Pittman Indicted.
Deputy U. S. Marshal Sanders
arrived in this city last Thurs
day night and carried A. G. Gil
more to Aberdeen. Gilmore, it
will be remembered, is the white
man whom the police arrested on
last Sunday afternoon in con
nection with the counterfeiting
which they developed in this
city. Marshal Sanders stated
that both H. E. Pittman and A.
G. Gilmore had been indicted by
the Federal grand jury and that
they would be tried at the pres
ent term of the court. The offi
cers state that they have a strong
case against them and they con
fidently look for conviction.
Pittman has plead guilty and
Gilmore's trial occurs to-morrow.
