T'e result-while there are some changes -is that most of the old oflicers hold over.

Church, assigned to this church after the death of Rev. Washington, was-:introduced as-orator of the day. He took -for his subject, "Our citizenship and its responsibili ties." His address was replete with timely advice to the colored population -stating that lawlessness must cease among them as a race; that the- taking of human life was too common; economy must be practiced, and property must be accumulated, and there must be more respect for womanhood in order to maintain the standard of citizenship desired. His closing remarks were con corning the State College at Orange burg-an institution for which his race was thankful. Silver Street Dots. A fire at W. W. Spearman's about 5 o'clock this morning.

Williams was the last man in New berry County, and perhaps the last one in the Slate, to become an elector under the understanding clause, registering a few minutes before 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon. The term of the present Supervisors of Rogistrotion doesn't expire until February first, but the law provides that they shall not register electors af ter January 1, 1898. So there is no reg istration on the fIrstIMonday in Janu ary and on Tuesday and Wednesday fol lowing. There is an incongruity on the first Monday in-January and on Tues day and Wednesday following. Thers is an incongruity in the Registration Act, it requiring registration those three days in every month. Ezeesilor B14,hlngs. A iappy new year.

When the Shakers offered sonic time ago to give away a bottle of their Digestive Cor' dial to any one who might call at their New York ofilee, there was a great rush and a great many people0 thought they were crazy. Sulisequent events proved it to have been i very clever advertising transac tion, for although they gave away thous-md of bott,les, it was in the end profit ible; nearly every one that took a free bottle camne hack for more andi paid for it, with pleasure, saying they h ad d iIved b-tt ir results from Its use than reom any o:,ber medicine they had over 'sed. The re is nothing so uniformly su3c eessfui in the treatment of st,omach troubles as the Shaker Digestive Cor' dial, and what is better than all, it re lieves at once.
