ORPHANS' HOME

Oar esteemed townsman, Chauncey Rose, has laid the foundation for another monument to his memory, when he is gone from our midst, which it is to be hoped will be many years henoe. This is the founding of an Orphans' Home, a Board of managers for which was organized this week. It consists of R. W. Thompson, President W. R. McKeen, Vice President Chas. M. Warren, Treasurer George E. Farrington, Secretary Alexander McGregor, E. F. Howe, Robert S. Cox, John H. O'Boyle, A. C. Mattox, A. B. Pegg, John a Williams, Richard A. Morris, and M. C. Rankin. The building will be erected in the southern suburbs of the city, where thirty acres of land have been obtained, where orphan children having a bonafide residence in this county will receive care, support, discipline and education. The Board will also have the privilege oif caring for aged females, crippled persons, and wnen it is authorized by the statute, for the care and support of aged males, all of whom must be residents of this county. God bless Chauncey Rose! •.

MOSSLER'S OPENING.

"The third time's the charm," it is said. At any rate it was proven true on last Wednesday evening, when, on the third occasion, the Mossier Brothers succeeded in making in "opening" without a rain. And what a throng of people the announcement did draw Out. Long before the doors were throwji open a great crowd had eolieoted, and when Tent®** band -arvmnptencetf. poutitag the fine harmony, the people commenced pouring in, and up to a late hour a steady line passed in review before the largest and finest stock of ready-made clothing aver shown in this city—all so new, attractive and elegant.

Starting in with the panic, the Mosslers have shown much pluck, but by untiring industry, a liberal expenditure of printers ink, courteous treatment of customers, and selling good goods at low prices, they have obtained here a sure footing, and will henceforth reap the harvest. Such energetic business men area benefit to any community, and are at all times welcome to come among us.

NEW DRUG HOUSE.

A MAGNIFICENT ESTABLISHMENT

One of the handsomest and most attractive of our many elegant business houses, is the new drug store of D. P. Cox & Co., corner of Main and Fifth streets, the doors of which were thrown open this morning, revealing to all who passed that way an astonishing change in the interior of that well known corner. All that the carpenter, the cabinet maker, the paper banger, the painter and the fresco artist cah do seems to have been done to make it pleasing to the eye—a model of neatness and taste.

The tasteful and elaborate ornamentation, however, is not by. any means the main feature of this new eatablishment. The long rows of new Jars and bottles, so handsomely labeled, are filled with the purest and freshest drugs and chemicals, and the stock of show ease goods is simply immense. Toilet articles, soaps, perfumeries, combs, brushes, Ac., will be made a specialty. *,

In the rear, back of an elegant front, la the prescription department, in charge of Mr. Fred Ehlaian, of Cairo, who has bad some twenty years' experience in both the English and German manifw* ition of drugs. Mr. D. P. Coat* in whose charge is the entire establishment, has been in the business seven years, and is thoroughly educated In all its branches. Such an auspicious opening cannot be otherwise than sucaessfol, and we eongiatuUte Messrs. Cox andShelledy on this successful venture down town. Their old house, on the comer of Main «id Ninth streets, will continue in fall blast* in charge of Mr. G. SheUedy.

FINE OYSTERS.

The finest oysters brought to this market are sold by Bid. W. Johnson, Main street, just above Sixth. Just ask for a ean of his "Elephant's Ears."
