LETTER FROM ROCK HILL. A High School for Boyt?OjwrtlteM of the Town Site Company?Other Matters. Correspondence of The Yartortte Knqalrer. Sock Hill, April 14.-~The magic city con, tiuues onward and upward, and another big enterprise has been inaugarated. At a congregational meeting held In the First Presbyterian church last Thursday bight, the pastor, Rev. W. M. Anderson, explained that the people had been called together for the purpose of establishing a high school for boys. The schotdfcJb**** t? b* under the supervision of Bethel presbytery, and was to be controlled hy a board of trustees from that body?five -selected from the church at this place, and the others within the bounds of the preebjrtery. On passing around a subscription pacer, the mm of $5,000 dollars was et oncer subscribed. This amount will no doubt be |Qrgely jnewmiod by other members of the cofcgregation and the dtiaens generally, i so the school is already a certainty. . The Rock Hill Loan and Town Site company have made some improvements on irnidiav liiMptfi And luvinCT "re" 6?~TV 0 off* building lots. C*rpenters are now at work on the bridge ibr the electric street railway, across the C., Cand A. railroad. Mr. Thomas L. Johnson, of this place, is shipping large quantities of quartz to the phosphate works at Charleston. The rock is used in one of the1 processes incident to the manufacture of sulphuric acid. Rev. A. L. S tough,-of Lea caster, held services in the Baptist church at this place on last Sunday. The followinf-parffrsrph from The Rock Hill Herald ofpgt week shows the wonderful growth of qwr^town since 1887: "The board of assessors have completed their work and submitted their report to the town council. The total tuxable value of all property within the incorporate limits is now $1,222,276, against $451,119 in 1887; $532,539 in 1888; $576,659 in 1889; $959,401 in 1890^; Increase since 1887?four years? being $771,157 or 171 per cent. This showiri^'ls highly gratifying and ought to oonviflfo th# skeptics that the growth of Rock Hill is continuous and substantial."

His body was badly mangled and his death resulted in a few minutes after he was run over. On Sunday afternoon, Trial Justice Camp, acting coroner, held an inquest over the body, and the verdict of the jury was that "The deceased came to his death by criminal carelessness on the part of the Riohmond and Danville Railroad company." The delegates to Bethel presbytery, which met at this place last week, were a fine looking body of men. Services were held in the Presbyterian church on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and also in the Baptist and Methodist churches on Sunday, to accommo. date the large body of people gathered hereThere were present fifty-five clerical and lay delegates, representing thirty-five out of the forty churches in the presbytery. The County Teachers' Institute will meet at this place during the second week of next month. It is hoped and expected that there will be a large attendance of educators, and they will please bear in mind that our people will give them a hospitable aud hearty welcome. w. A.

Bullock, ;"wtiQ felled it with an axe. The brute was addled by the blow, and in its efforts to get away, became entangled in a coil of wire, where it was held by Col. Bullock until Mr. Peeler could get his gun und kill it. The dog is reported to have bitteu several other dogs in the neighborhood. /\^e have been having some line farming weather for the past few days, the occasional showers keeping the ground in u good mellow condition to plow. Vegetation is growing rapidly. It will now hide a rabbit in many places where a few days ago it would not cover the ground. Mr. John L. Strain, is quite sick at his home near Pacolet Mills. The Salem Sunday-school yesterday appointed a committee of youug ladies to visit those who are manifestly indifferent to Sunday-school work, in the hojje that more interest might thereby be awakened. The residence of Mr. R. J. Parker, near Gilkey's Mountain, in this couuty, was destroyed by tire one night last week. The house took fire, it is supposed, from a defective stove flue, while Mr. Parker and his family were asleep. The family barely escaped with their lives, and nothing was saved. Rev. G. S.

The Sad Death of a Sweet Lltte Girl?Personal Mention. ('orrenpondence of The VorkvlUe Knqulrer. LowJt-YsviiAJC, April 14.?On last Wednes-! day at 4 p. in., Blanche Tittman, aged twelve years, met with a terrible accident that resulted in her death ut the same hour on j Thursday. i A colored woman was washing clothes in ' the yard, and using a large molasses kettle to boil her water in. Blanche was rolling a wheelbarrow, and while walking backward, j before realizing her proximity to the pot, lost her balance and fell into it. The entire back portion of her body, from her knees up to the edge of her hair, iucluding her right ' arm, was terribly scalded. I)rs. Brawley, i Anderson and Jmve were summoned at once \ and all that medical skill could do was done, j but to no purpose. They could procure no reaction from the shock, and deuth came to j the relief of the unfortunate girl just twenty-four hours after the accident. 5 The funeral exercises were conducted on I Friday by Revs. C. Fraser and N. B. Clark-! son, the latter preaching a most appropriate sermon. Little Blanche had written a letter to The I Christian Observer, expressing her joy at having aaow church and sadness at the death of her pastor, little dreaming that she would be the .next one for whom the bell in the church tower would be solemnly tolled. She was eagerly watching the paper for her j letter, but never saw it. It was not printed until the 8th instant and reached this office' on the 9th. A sympathizing friend got the | paper out of the office, knowing her anx- j iety to see it, and hurried to the bedside of the little sufferer. But alas! she was already dead. Mrs. 8. R. Riley, is at Mrs. J. L. Guy's on a visit. Our people are glad to welcome her back again. Dr. A. F. Anderson represented this church at the recent meeting of Bethel presbytery. w. o. cj. LETTER^" ROM TOOTIMLL. The Buy Farmers-^Organising a Military Coaipauy?Pack Peddlers?Other Matters. Correspondence of The YorkrlHe Enquirer. Fort Mill, April 13.?The long wet spell appears to have broken at last and the farmers got in five ftill days last week, notwithstanding the rain of Saturday, which again made the ground too wet to plow. A considerable quantity of corn was planted last week, and some cotton will be planted before this week is out. From the present outlook, I would judge that the next ten days will see the larger portion of the whole crop of cotton and corn planted in the "cut off." Fort Mill Is feeling like putting on airs since the bank has got into its new building, which is one of the best arranged in the county. The young men of this place have organized a military company with twenty members. For the present, Rev. J. H. Thornwell is acting as drill master. I would respectfully call the attention of those county officers, whose duty it is to look after such matters, to the fact that there are a number of "pack peddlers" doing business in this section without a license, it is my hapressiou that the law requires that each one of them shall pay a license of $100 in each county in which they do business. There was no preaching in the Presbyterian church at this place yesterday. Rev. J. H. Thornwell, the pastor, was at Blaeksburg in attendance on the meeting of Bethel presbytery. Services, however, were held by Prof. Boyd, who delivered an interesting lecture. Miss .Nettie Tnomassoi:, 01 mis pmce, i? i quite sick with pneumonia. Mr. A. A. Bradford left here for West Tennessee about ten days ago. It is his purpose to move his family next fall and make that place his future home. c. LETTER FROM*SMYRNA. Activity Among the Farmer*?l>eath Closes the Couut?The Pleasant Weather. Correspondence of The Yorkvllle Enquirer. Smyrna, April 13.?Since my last letter our people have been hard at work. Most of them have gotten in about all of their guano, and most of the upland corn has been planted. A great deal of cotton will be planted this week. I never saw the people work with more J energy. Every individual has gone iu for j all he is worth, and each one is trying to out- j strip everybody else in the quantity of work J that he is doing. Small grain still looks fine, and is appa-1 rentlv uninjured by the frost of last week. Our section seems to be a peculiarly favored one. Not more than half of the peach crop was killed, and if there is no more damage to it we will have finer peaches even than we would have hud if the frost had not occurred. If nothing happens, cherries, plums and apples are going to be plentiful. Mr. Morgan Dover, Pue of the oldest citizens of this neighborhood, died suddenly a few days ago. He was sitting on a chair counting up his age on a slate, when he suddenly fell over and died in a few minutes. The warm sunshiny weather that is now prevailing is all that could be wished for. The forests are putting on their summer cfethes, and the gardens are beginning to aiake our mouths water in anticipation of the delicious luxuries that they have in process of development, brief rkmarkek; * ? Three boys, two of them sons of Backmau Dreeher, of Lexington Fork, and the other named Denuie Nunnamaker, a young drug clerk, were drowned in the Saluda river, fourteen miles from Columbia, last Monday afternoon. They were fishing from a boat in the middle of the stream, and the boat suddenly sprung u leak and sunk before the boys could get to land. None of them could swim.

C.: Dear Sir: I received the Sewing Machine in a few weeks after ordering it, and iny wife is well j pleased with it. It does as good work as Machines sold here for from $.'?.00 to $00.00. I advise every one who wants a good Machine at an honest price to bny this Machine. C. Mason Smith. "I Now Consider It Indispensable." I,ast week I announced that I would publish a statement from Mr. W. S. Wilkerson in regard to the Oorbin Disk Harrow that would amaze every farmer who reads it. I should have added, "Provided the reader does not own a harrow himself," for I don't think those who have used the implement any length of time will be sur prised at Mr. Wilkerson's statements. I will say for the information of those who are not personally acquainted with him, that he is not only one of York's most progressive and successful formerft, (and to he one of this class is 110 small achievement, because there is probably >10 county in the South that (tan boast as many) but he is also one of the kind who don't talk simply for the sake of making a noise. Head what he has to say about the l>est agricultural implement in the world, after using it for about eighteen months: Hickory Grovk, 8. C., March 23,1891. 1 Mr. Ham M. (Wist, Yorkvfile,8. C.: Dear Sir? I )>ought a No. 7 Corbin Disk Harrow from you in October, 1889. I was delighted with it the tirst time I tried it. I now consider it an indispensable Implement on the farm. No fanner who loofcs after his own interest can afford to l>c without it. To give an idea of its value at this time, when every former is so for behind with his work, I will say that I can take my Harrow, with one baud and 4 mules, und put 300 to400 pounds weight on the Harrow, and nreak eight acres of corn-stalk, cotton-stalk or stubble land in one day, and prepare it deeper and better in everyway than can be done with 8 mules and 8 hands in the ordinary way. [I have a weight box on my Harrow. It is the length of the beam, and is 9 inches wide at the )x>ttom, 11 at top, ana about 10 inches deep. It is fastened ou to the 1 ...UK 1 ouaui miu m/iun. j La?t spring I plowed up niy cotton stalks, and with the Disk Harrow and 2 mules, cut up the stalks and pulverized my land to the depth of live inches at the same operation, and at the rate of an acre an hour. ' Wheat and oat* can be put in with it much better than the ordinary way. One hand and 2 mules is all that is necessary to put in eight to ten acres a day. The best prepared land I have ever had was a piece of heavy weed stubble turned in the fall Bfiil Mil up with thu Hai-mu.' in Llm Mitring. In conclusion, let me say that the Harrow thoroughly breaks and pulverizes the land and leaves it In a porous condition. Land that has been pulverized with a Corbin Harrow will not lwke.

"SKST" $2,900,000 The Central Trust Company of New York, Trustee of It? Reserve Fund. r $10,200,000 "FEET $200,000,000 0 THE Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association has deposited $200,000 with the Insurance Department of tlie State of New York, and $200,XX) in Deposited with the Insurance Department of Canada and the Bank of England. In addition to being managed by honest and experienced officers, every safeguard that stringent laws can bring to bear is being used for the protection of policy holders in this great company. There is no reasouaoie cuauce iur tu? ucucutuucn u> ?n honest policy holder to be defrauded out of one cent of their money. During the past ten year* the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association baa saved over TWENTY-FIVE MILLION DOLLARS to its policy holders as compared to what they would nrfve been compelled to have paid had they been insured in old line high rate level premium companies. The Mutual Reserve has stemmed a deluge of adverse attacks victoriously ! Several weeks ago I published in The Enquirer extracts from a letter written by the late Dr. N. J. Bussey, of Columbus, Oa., who for years was president of the celebrated Eagle and Phoenix Cotton Mills, of Columbus, endorsing the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Asssociation. Dr.Bussey was recognized as one of the best business men in Geoj-gia. The letter above referred to was published in The Atlanta Constitution of January 12,1891, and the same papar announced that Dr. Bussv had died the day before. Below will be found a letter from Dr. Bussey's son in regard to the payment of his father's policy by the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association: Columbus, Ga., March 20,1801. Messrs. Jones & Krouse, . Geneml Managers, Atlanta, Ga. Genti.kmen : I hereby acknowledge receipt of draft of the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association of New York for ?10,000, in full settlement of the policy held by my father, Nathan J. Bussey, In that company; and at the same time to express through you my thanks to the management for their speedy settlement of the matter, antedating as it does nearly two months the time the company was legally required to pay ; and also kind treatment In the matter ofproofs, etc. I cheerfully recommend the Mntual Reserve Fund Life Association to any one wanting safe Insurance at a cost of about one-hulf that of old-line companies. Yours truly, Henky J. Bussey. Executor Estate N. J. Bussey. I also publish a letter from Mrs. Waltou, widow of F. II. Walton, who, during his life time found that ho could buy $2,000 of insurance for less than what $1,000 was costing him in an old line company, and wisely took the $2,000. Read what Mrs. Waltou says about it: Atlanta, Ga., March 7th, 18U1. T. H. Jones, General Manager Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association. Dear Sir : Accept my grateful thanks for the prompt payment to me this day, und before due, of two thousund dollars, in full of policy No. 77,7:10 on the life of my late husband, Frank H. Walton, who was Irs Afiitunl Pauusfo Vlin/1 AuoAplfl. tlon for thut amount. He had a policy In an old-line, high rate company for $1,000 which he dropped when he found that he could carry 82,000 In the Mutual Reserve for less than 81,000 coat In the old line company; and I am thus provided In my widowhood with twice the amount I would otherwise have received. (Signed) Mrs. Fannik J. Walton. Post Office: Blue Ridge, Ga. Is your life insured ? If it is not, can you give any sensible reason why you should not insure? If you are insured in an old line company are you doing yourself and your family justice when you can get just as good insurance for less than half the amount it now costs you, or when you can carry twice as much for less than the premium you are now paying? Turn these questions over and over in your mind. Below will he found the rates charged by the Mutual Reserve in the Ten Years Distribution Deposit Plan. The rates given are the MAXIMUM that can be required in any one year on each thousand dollars of insurance, and after a policy has l?een in force TKX years the annual premium will be reduced. The amount of the annual premium may be paid bi-monthly semiannually or annually, as may suit the policy holder: If you arc 25 years old the maximum cost for each $1,000 insurance will be $13.80 annually, or $2 .30 every two months. If you are 30, the maximum cost for each $1,000 of insurance will be $14.22 annually, or $2.37 every two months. If you are 35 the annual cost will be $14.04. If you are 40 the annual cost will be $10.20. If you are 45 the annual coat will be $17.1*4. If you are 50 the annual cost will be $21.30. If you are 55 the annual cost will be 832.40. If you are 00 the annual cost will be $43.08. If your age and rate is not included in the above, the exact rates for your age will he furnished on application.

Among our recent arrivals is an exceptionally fine line of WHITE GOODS. The ladies are invited to call and examine them. We hare no apprehension as to what the verdict' will be if we are given the opportunity of showing these goods and quoting prices.
