Mlllfort Discontinues Night Work. Fort Mill Times: Fort Mill is i present experiencing a slice of tt McKinley prosperity of which we hei so much nowadays. All night woi was shut down indefinitely at tt Millfort mill in this place Saturda night, as a result of the depression i the cotton cloth market. About 1 hands are thrown out of employmen most of whom have moved to Roc Hill and other nearby towns in searc of work. The 8tokes Free Delivery. The Stokes free delivery syste seems to be giving good satisfaction I all who have tried it. In some cast patrons have erected their mail boxc off the road where the mail rider cai not reach them without* getting fro his horse or buggy. This is not in a cordance with either the letter or spii of the regulations. Boxes should I within convenient reach of the ma rider so as to give him the least po sible trouble. Serious Accident to Mr. Plexlco. The mail rider on the Yorkville 1 Yorkville via Bethany route, tells tl reporter of an unfortunate accidei that occurred to Mr. R. N. Plexic of Bethany, on last Tuesday. M John Plexico's wheat was beit threshed on that day. After some t< or fifteen bushels had been threshe the straw caught fire from a spar from the smokestack, and the fire w quickly communicated to the stacl of unthreshed wheat. Mr. Plexii climbed one of the stacks to fight tl fire, and falling off broke his left foe As nearly as can be estimated, betwee 300 and 350 bushels of wheat was de troyed. Mr. Plexico is able to 1 "I about on crutches. Dr. Anderson and Miss Faris. Fort Mill Times: Flihx Hill Ba] tist church was the scene of a happ marriage on last Wednesday afternoc at 4 o'clock, the contracting parti being Dr. R. L. 'Anderson and Mi Lillie Faris. Rev. A. L. Stowe pe formed the ceremony. The chun was tastily decorated for the occasic and the wedding march was played I Miss Mary Belk. Dr. Anderson, wl graduated recently from a southei medical college, is a popular young mt and will doubtless do well in tl ST. practice of his profession. Mrs. AnderE. son is the third daughter of one of to Gold Hill's best and most prosperous i(j planters, Mr. S. C. Faris. A reception ,k was given the young married couple lis at the home of the bride's parents y. Wednesday evening, at which was present a large number of friends. 10 Lancaster For Hoyt. n Several Lancaster gentlemen in ' Yorkville this week said that there is e no doubt of the fact that the county it- will give a plurality, if not a majority, re for Hoyt in the first primary. At least 1 > one of the gentlemen who expressed ar this view is an anti-Hoyt man ; but a st good judge of the political situation 08 . in his county. th That Gastonia Matter. 10 The Gastonia Gazette has not yet deemed it necessary to publish the letter of Manager White agreeing to ,s play baseball in Gastonia, ou July 4, r for $50 and expenses. We had hoped er that the publication of this letter might it. show that the Gastonia committee has ?i acted honorably in the matter. As yet the committee has not even paid the * expenses of the Yorkville team, as was alleged to be its intention. It would be interesting, perhaps, if The Gazette would publish the names of the members of this committee. Yorkville e citizens who have to make good the te committee's representations, would ar like to know. People, too, who paid to see that ball game, would like to ]e know, since the committee holds that ^ there was.no game, what became of their money? Surely the Gastonia committee did not keep it.
