When the case came to trial Tuesday, Solicitor Henry transferred it tc the contingent docket, and had the following order of court spread upon the minutes: 'Cardoza Hampton having entered his plea of guilty, and been sentenced to pay a fine of $100 or work on the public works of the county for a period of three months, and the fine having been paid to the clerk of the court, and the other indictments against the said Cardoza Hampton having been placed on the contingent docket by the solicitor upon the express understanding and agreement that the said defendant, Cardoza Hampton, depart from the county with1*? -ln'o frnm thp dfltp of thiS OT der, and remain therefrom, now on motion of B. F. Townsend and Thos. F. McDow, attorneys for the defendant, it is ordered that he be discharged from further custody of the sheriff and allowed to go hence." Inasmuch as Nancy Jeter, Cardoza's wife, was not included in this order, and inasmuch as Cardoza had failed to keep his original agreement. Constable Scoggins, Sheriff Logan and Policeman Love, feel that much of their work has gone for nothing. They, with a great many others, think that the tigers should have been punished much more severely; but If Cardoza and Nancy will now get out of town, the officers and others will be disposed to regard the incident as closed. THE YORK MILL. jfow that financial difficulties have been satisfactorily adjusted, and orders have been pouring in, the situation out at the York Cotton mills appear again very much the same as before the recent suspension. A representative of The Enquirer walked out to the mills a few days ago, and on being shown through the mammoth concern and the grounds surrounding, was surprised to note the many developments that had taKen place during the months that had elaspsed since a previous visit. There has been an important addition to the main mill building since last fall, and the new machinery that is now being placed and about ready for operation, brings the total capacity of the plant up to about 13,000 spindles, an increase of 9,200 over the number with which the original start ? was made. And the village, too, has grown to considerable proportions. It now includes 73 cottages, large and small, laid out in regular streets, and presenting the appearance of a well-ordered town that is actually beginning to consider the question of independent I incorporation. The incorporation question has not been definitely determined, and it may not be. The principal incentive just now is the road question. All of the male operatives who are subject to road duty, and who live without the incorporate limits, belong to the section which includes the recently improved five miles stretch of the Charlotte road. They have but little occasion to use the road east of the mill, and claiming that the road does not require much work now anyway, * ? _ t 1 A1 ? ' ? f V\n f tney minK n rainer a utupsiup mai they should be called upon for service, the only escape from which seems to He In incorporation. It seems that there have not been a great many changes on account of the recent suspension. A dozen or more families moved away to other mills; but most of the older families stuck to the village and saw the thing out. Superintendent Grimes claims that he has the model mill community of the South, and at the request of the reporter, made out a list of his heads of families as follows: H. M. Abernethy, G. W. Adams, J. E. Adams, Lum Adams. J. A. Alderson, J. W. Alexander, J. C. Allen, M. C. Allen, C. Allen, W. L. Baber, W. W. Barr. W. H. Barron, J. W. Bennett. R. J. Blackmon, A. P. Bradford, Joe Brown, R.

Owing to the new machinery now being put in operation, there is still a scarcity of labor and the community is still calling for a number of additional families. McLAIJRIN IN CHARLOTTE. There were quite a number of South Carolinians in Charlotte last Thursday. Some were present as guests at a reception given by the Manufacturers' club, and others were there because of curiosity on account of the expected launching of a new party as heralded by many newspapers throughout the country. A representative of The Enquirer was among the newspaper men who w#e present because of the interesting natal event referred to, and along with others put in the day keeping his eyes open looking for things and his ears open listening for sounds. But, as might have been expected, it turned out to be a useless trip. Except to those who had been especially invited to attend the banquet of the manufacturers, there was nothing of especial interest outside a glimpse of the famous Minister Wu, and a social chat with Senator McLaurin at his room in the Buford hotel. According to the arrangements of the committee of the Manufacturers' club. Senator McLaurin had been booked for a drive over the city in company with the Chinese minister and others, with a view to taking in the various points of interest. Learning, however, of the presence in the city of quite a number of his South Carolina friends, many of whom had come long distances to see him, the senator managed to get himself excused and returned to his room, where, for two hours or more, he held an informal reception. The doors were open to whoever saw proper to enter, and the representative of The Enquirer was one of the newsnaner men who re mained throughout the morning. The senator made himself as entertaining as possible, relating interesting anecdotes and funny jokes, and referring to politics only in answer to questions and observations by his guests. The story of the proposed new Republican party he referred to contemptuously as an absurd canard, and suggested that the best disposition of that .would be in the speech that he had prepared for delivery in the evening. Some one asked the senator whether or not it was true that he had requested Senator Jones to strike his name from the Democratic caucus roll. "I most certainly did not." said the senator, with great positiveness, "and I made no request or statement that could be so construed." "Has your name been stricken from the Democratic caucus roll?" was asked. "ff so. I have never been informed ot the fact, except through the newspapers," and the senator went on to explain the caucus incident as follows: "For more than a week I had been with my wife at the Garfield hospital, where she had undergone a critical operation that endangered her life. I had. as you can very well imagine, laid business and politics aside. I was caring absolutely nothing about the caucus, the Democratic party, the Republican party, ship subsidy, expan. sion or anything else, except the condition of Mrs. McLaurin. "One day. when Mrs. McLaurin was resting easier. I went up to the Capitol to get my personal mail, and among those I met, was Senator Jones. We , had a pleasant little conversation, dur, ing which Senator Jones asked me ' whether I cared to be invited to a cau1 cus on the ship subsidy bill, about ' which there had been numerous cau1 cuses. He explained as to how he felt : a delicacy in asking me about it, and when I told him that on account of my 1 irreconcilable views on the subject, I ( thought it better not to embarrass my 1 associates or myself by attending these 1 conferences. Senator Jones replied that he respected my attitude and that he thought I was entirely right. That was about all that occurred, and I thought no more about the matter. "Returning to the hospital, I did not go to the Capitol again for several days afterward. Mrs. McLaurin was still very ill, and I was still giving her my entire time and attention, to the exclusion of politics. Joe Bailey, of Texas, met me, and after an exchange of greeting, made a remark to this effect: " 'Say, McLaurin, you are entirely wrong about that caucus. I think you are making a mistake.' I had no idea to what he referred, except that possibly it might have been something that had occurred in one of our various confomnnno An voriniio nnoQtinn.Q fl n still not feeling inclined to talk politics, I merely dismissed the subject with, 'Think so, Joe?' and passed on. I had a similar talk with Anse McLaurin, of Mississippi: but neither incident made much impression upon me until afterward. "Three or four days later, I got an opportunity to review the accumulated newspapers and I ran upon that Washington dispatch to the Atlanta Constitution, and all the big whirlwind that had been raised about it. The whole thing began to dawn upon me for the first time, and I sent out that denial that appeared in the Columbia Record." Senator McLaurin talked quite interestingly about numerous other things and told the story of how the government exhibit was secured for the Charleston exposition. He had been interested in the matter by Mr. Bird, of Charleston, and he disclaimed having done anything at all for political effect. He remarked that he would leave Charlotte next morning to carry the exposition down to Charleston." During the day. Senator McLaurin remarked that it was his purpose to make several speeches in different parts of South Carolina during the summer, and he suggested that unless something should turn un in the meantime to prevent, he would come to Yorkville on the first Monday in June. He was assured that there are a good many people in this section who would like to hear him on whatever subject he cared to talk about, and about the I last thing he said to the reporter was, "You can depend upon It, that it is my intention to come. I have every reason to feel especially grateful to the nonnlo <->f Vnrlr r>nnntv_ and T want to pvvrp.x. ? give them an opportunity to judge me in accordance with my own testimony, rather than from the standpoint of the newspapers." local laconics.

Moorhead, of Hickory Grove, writes that he thinks he has a plan to save sweet potatoes that is better than any that has yet been suggested. He weatherboards a frame all around, ceiling on the inside and filling in with dirt or straw?anything to keep out the air. Then he makes a bed of dry pine leaves, and puts on a five or six inch layer of potatoes, alternating with leaves and potatoes until all of the potatoes are provided for. The top must be covered witn a roor to keep out the water. All air must be excluded from the bottom, but there Is no danger from the top. The potatoes should be dug before frost, as frostbitten surface potatoes are dan- ( cerous. Put up in this way. Mr. Moorhead says he can keep his potatoes through the winter without the slightest danger of loss, aed that they are much sweeter and better than when protected under dry dirt alone.
