Scraps and .facts. It is expected that all German prisoners of war will be on their way home within a few days. The Germans held prisoner by France 'will be turned over to the German authorities at Cologne, Mayence and Coglenz. Those held in England will be sent by way of Holland or direct by steamer to Germany. It is said that 20.000 Gero r? nflonnftro qpo vnl unto r_ ily In Siberia, ? Already possessed of the greatest single stock of gold in history, the United States could, lay claim today to most of the remaining free gold of the world in payment of its favorable merchandise balance, the federal reserve bulletin says in its July issue. The balance approximated $9,000,000,000 in the last three years and bids fair to continue at the same rate this year, affording a problem to arrange payments without bankrupting debtor nations and still further enhancing the cost of living here through the importation of more metal. ? If a bill which has just been introduced in congress by Senator Park Trammell of Florida is passed there will be a big increase in bonus money going to soldiers in the recent war. Sentor Trammell is the author of the measure which allows soldiers a bonus of $60. However, he does not believe this is enough and will endeavor to have both houses of congress increase this amount so that the following will hereafter be paid: $30 for three and not exceeding four months' service, $60 for four and not exceeding five months' service, $90 for five and not ovpooHlnff rIv months' service. $120 for six and not exceeding seven months' service, $150 for each serving over seven months. Inquires have been received at Coblenz army headquarters in regard to the question o fthe association of soldiers with civilians. These have come in such numbers during the last few days that Lieut. Gen. Hunter Liggett has issued a bulletin pointing out that the United States is still technically at war with Germany. A large number of these inquiries have asked regarding marriage between American soldiers and German girls and were partly responsible for the bulletin. The bulletin says: "In order to prevent any possiblity of misunderstanding the army commander invites attention to the fact that "the signing by the associated powers and Germany will not terminate at once the present occupation of the legal state of war existing between the United States and Germany. Not until said treaty is ratified by the United States senate will war between the United States and Germany be legally concluded, and not until there is an actual evacuation of the American occupied area by the United States troops will control over this area be ended. All proclamations and orders heretofore issued, or that may hereafter be issued, civilians will accordingly remain in force and effect until the actual evacuation by the United States army of zone now occupied." Jack Dempsey knocked out Jess Willard in the third round in the fight for big prize money and the heavyweight championship of the world at Toledo, Ohio, last Friday afternoon. Jess Willard is 37 years old and has been the heavyweight champion since 1915, when he knocked out Jack Johnson in the great battle in Cuba. Jack T\amnonv rxra a hnm in S< L&kfi CitV Utah, on June 24, 1895, and is therefore 24 years old. He has been following the fighting game for three years. There was preparation at Toledo for 80,000; but there were only 45,000 present, including 500 women. Up to a few days before the battle the betting odds favored Willard; but they declined steadily until it became difficult to place bets at even figures. There were millions on the fight, but the volume of betting was less than was expected. The fight proved the greatest disappointment in the history of the prize ring. In less than a minute after it commenced, it developed that Dempsey could hit Willard whenever and wherever he chose and Willard was knocked down five times in the first round. Willard's face was beaten into a pulp. One eye was closed and six teeth were knocked out He was fearfully punished- After the third round Willard's seconds threw their towels in the ring as a token of giving it up. After the fight Willard gave out a statement in which he said that Dempsey was the best man he had ever met in the ring. The prize ring followers were generally disappointed in that the contest failed to give them the entertainment they had expected Members of the senate and house have returned to Washington preparatory to the reconvening today of congress after a week's Fourth of July recess. The appearance of President Wilson before the senate Thursday, at * " * * * * hat KAHV which time ne win iaj uciuic mm. j the terms of the German peace treaty and the Franco-American agreementand consideration by the house of war time prohibition enforcement legislation are expected to outrank anything else before congress within the next fortnight. The address to be made by the president in presenting the treaty is waited with great interest by both advocates and opponents of the league of nations covenant. The treaty as well as the Franco-American agreement probably will be referred immediately to the foreign relations committee. No plan for consideration of the treaty has been announced by the committee, but the committee probably will make an exhaustive study of the document and various related subjects. It has been intimated that the committeo would hold hearings. Some senate leaders have expressed the belief that President Wilson might appear before the committee, or an executive session of the senate to explain various partions of the treaty and league covenant. The house is expected to take up legislation to arm the government in its enforcement of war time prohibition immediately on convening Tuesday. The judiciary committee, which recently reported to the house a bill in three parts, providing for enforcement of both war time and constitutional prohibition and regulat mg me manuiaciure 01 aieunui 101 commercial purposes, may hold a meeting tomorrow, depending on the number of its members present. Strong sentiment exists for prompt enactment of war time enforcement measure but whether the measure will be Part 1 of the bill already reported or an entirely new bill has not been decided. Investigation of expenditures of the war department during the war will be resumed tomorrow by the special committee conducting the inquiry. The R-34, the British super-dirigible, landed at Roosevelt flying field last Sunday morning at 9.54 o'clock, in completion of the first successful trip acrosi- the ocean by a lighter than air machine. The trip was accomplished in 108 hours and 1-2 minute, and covered 3.S00 land miles. The voyage was not as smooth and uneventful as was expected. The big ship ran into fogs, wind and thunder storms off Newfoundland and had a terrible struggle to hold her own. At times it looked as if it would be necessary to descend to the sea, and on that account, Major Scott, the commander, wired for help. A number of United States warships were sent up to the Bay of Fundy to be of such service as might be possible. The R-34 continued to battle, however, and decided that it could make Boston. Arrangements were made for a landing at Montauk Point. Then later it was decided that Roosevelt field could be reached and that was done. Some of the facilities that had been assembled at Roosevelt field were transferred to Montauk Point, in the emergency. When the big airship found that it could make Roosevelt field, the facilities that had been sent away were ordered back. The big airship flew over Roosevelt field in circles while things were being gotten in readiness, and the soldiers and sailors who had been sent to Montauk Point to assist in the landing were being rushed back in motor trucks While this circling was going on Major Pritchard came down in a parachute, and made a successful landing. Hundreds of soldiers and | sailors manned the guide ropes as the big ship came down and the landing was entirely successful. Major Scott, commander, was the first man to step ashore from the big ship. He looked worn and haggard on account of loss of sleep and anxiety; but he greeted General Lionel E. O. Charlton, the British air attache in the United States, who was waiting to receive him, as quietly and easily as If it were a mere matter of good morning. Lieutenant ommander Zachery Landsdowne, the American observer, was as much fagged out as was Major Scott, whom he had been assisting- The 23 men of the crew also showed the effects of anxiety and exertion. The airship had left only enough fuel for an hour and a half longer. The voyage had lasted a full thousand miles more than had been anticipated. There was, plenty of food and water for everybody. It is planned to begin the return trip today. <?he UorfevilU (Snquim Entered at the Postoffice at Tork as Mail Matter of the Second Class. TUESDAY, JULY 8, 1919. Here is the hope that the senate will at once ratify the treaty league of nations and also that we may all get down to business. Although the attitude of the Allies in forcing the kaiser to trial may be without precedent, the attitude of the kaiser to the proposition is entirely familiar The governor of the Mexican state of Sonora, recognizes that traffic in intoxicating liquors across the border might eventually bring on a war between the United States and Mexico, and as a precaution has signed a decree under which all Mexicans caught in smuggling of liquor from Mexico will be summarily snot. The pension list is like it ought to be now. There is no discrimination. All of the old fellows who served their state in the sixties, are recognized without discrimination and that makes the pension roll indeed a roll of honor. To be sure the roll as it stood formerly was no less honorable; but it was Iaoo nrnrlitohln tn tho nf Smith Carolina, because it failed to recognize all who were entitled to recognition. Congressman Stevenson managed to get a good amendment into a bad piece of house legislation a few days ago. The house was bent on the passage of an act allowing public municipal, public service and other corporations to exercise the right of eminent domain through the United States district court in the condemnation of water rights, rights of way, etc., required by such corporations. Such power is exceedingly dangerous, to say the least of it; but there was no way to prervent its passage- Mr. Stevenson, however, pointed out the hardship and injustice of making the poor owner of a small piece of property worth less than $3,000, go to the district court to defend his rights in property that he might not desire to part with at all. The house passed the pernicious act, but it allowed the amendment that requires cases involving damages of less than $3,000 to be heard in the state courts. The benefit is to allow the neighbors and friends of the property owner?the people who know whether he is reasonable or only querreious, to pass upon the question as to whether his property shall be taken away from him The killing of Hendrix Rector was on its face, probably the result of an old feud between the two men. That is the way a good many will size it up. If the feud had not existed, the killing would not have occurred. Behind It all there is the hellish work of men who are more tc blame than the man who actually fired the shots. Rector came to Greenville from back in the mountains. He was a man of extraordinary ability and a natural love of politics. The situation as he found it interested him mightijy. He pitched in and got the best of it over the political powers that were. They tried every way known to their experience and cunning to oust him; but failed. Then they began with the art of the devil himself to stir up envy and Jeal-I ousy in the heart of the sheriff's old deputy. That was easy for such men as undertook the job, with such a subject to work upon. Little flees and even big bull dogs can be forced to an attack with a 'sic 'em." Tell a half illiterate mountaineer that he is afraid of another fellow, All him with lies about the other fellow things the other fellow did do and didn't do, and the work of the devil is well on- Of course the people who were agging Gosnell on Rector, cared nothing about Gosnell. They understood very well that if one should kill the other it would be a very quick and easy riddance of both. Rector understood all these things and tried to order his affairs and conduct in such a way as not to play into the hands of his enemies E nd lose prestige with his friends. But the work of the foul fiends htis been successfully accomplished and a good man's life Is the forfeit. Thermometer readings in five cities Washington. Boston, Hartford, Conn. Philadelphia and Harrisburg, Pa registered 100 degrees Friday and weather bureau forecasters said the day was one of the hottest Fourths of July on record. The warm wave extending over the east chiefly was remarkable for the size of the areti covered. Taking in everything from the Missippi Valley east to the Atlantic coast. At Chicago the official temperature was 96. Disorders have been prevailing throughout northern Italy during the past week on account of lack of food. In Florence on July 4. there was a general sacking of food shops and several people were killed in the rioting. In Bologna all food was requisitioned by the chamber of labor and put on sale at reasonable prices. The city government found it effective to standardize the price to be paid for a meal at from 50 cents to $1, according to the class of the restaurant. Thirty-one of the principal merchants of Palermo were arrested on the charge of being "starvers of the people." A big Handley-Page airplane that had been sent from England to Newfoundland to trv a triD back across the Atlantic, on last Friday attempted instead to reach America ahead of the R-34. The machine made a good start for New York and Atlantic City; but after flying for thirteen hours developed trouble in one of her four engines, and had to come down. Reaching Parrsburg, Canada, at 2 a. m., it cruised around until daylight, and then made for an open space on the ground, that turned out to be a race track. But nearing the ground it struck wires, which damaged its undergear in such manner that it was forced to run into a tree. None of the airmen were seriously hurt; but the machine was so badly damaged that it was unabl to proceed further. LOCiU. AFFAIRS, NEW ADVERTISEMENTS W.

Both Governor Cooper and Congressman Stevenson were tremendously popular in Yorkville last Friday. It seemed as if almost everybody wanted to shake hands with these officials. A number of patrons of R. F. D. Route No. 5, are getting an unfair deal on the part of the postofflce department. Some time ago a portion of the route that had been established for several years, was cut off in such a way as to deprive several patrons of the accommodations they had been enjoying. Among the excuses given was alleged bad roads and the alleged fact that the route passed through private premises- The road was promptly repaired and it was shown that the road to which objection-was offered, was a public road. It was shown also that the route ran through several miles to serve as few a number of patrons as that cut off. In fact it was shown that the excuses offered were . - but of little consequence But still the postofflce department refuses to undo the injustice which evidently perpetrated by a bad tempered route agent in a fit of pique.

CHARGED WITH INSULT Grady Canby, a white man about 24 years of age, who has been living at the Lockmore Cotton Mill in Yorkville for some time past, is in the county jail charged with making improper proposals to a young married woman of the mill village, the wife ot a well known operative of the Lockmore. The alleged insult occurred last Wednesday. Canby is alleged to have gone to the home of the young woman while the husband was away and to have insulted her, the young woman also claiming that he laid hold of her. When the young husband was told of the affair he immediately sianeu m search of Canby and when Sheriff Quinn arrived on the scene, was holding Canby at bay under the point of a revolver. Following a preliminary before Magistrate Comer, Canby was bound over to answer the charge against him at the next term of the court of general sessions. SHOOTING AT COLORED CHURCH Fred Hardin, a young negro man about 20 years of age, is in the county jail charged with shooting another young negro named Crosby, who now lies in the Fennell Infirmary in Rock Hill with nine perforations in his intestines, with but Slight chances of recovery. The shooting occurred at Weeping Mary church in the East View section following services Sunday afternoon. According to the statement of the Hardin negro, another negro came up to his buggy and deposited a pistol therein, stating that he would return for the weapon later. Crosby came up to the buggy a short time afterward and asked Hardin for a match. The request was granted and when Crosby had lighted his cigarette he noticed I the nistol lying in the car. Picking it | up, he began handling the weapon and Hardin in a spirit of fun drew his own weapon, a .32 calibre Iver Johnson. The weapon was discharged, the bullet striking Crosby in the stomach and perforating his intestines. Hardin told the sheriff that he was unable to explain how he came to discharge his weapon. He bore no ill feeling toward Crosby, he said; but on the other hand the men were good friends. Crosby was taken to Itock Hill Sunday night where he was given medical attention; but physicians hold out no hope for his recovery. Hardin made no attempt to get away after the shooting: but surrendered to officers. He lives on the Jesse Moore place while the wounded man lived on the I^ee Patterson place. The negro whose pistol Hardin claims was placed in his car and whir>h the Crosby negro was examin ing: denies having a pistol or placing it in the machine, according to Sheriff Quinn ABOUT PEOPLE Dr. A.

One of the most attractive features of Yorkville's Independence day celebration to the general public perhaps were the exhibits of local business houses on display in the building opposite the postofflce which is to be occupied within the next few days by the Hart Grocery Company, successors to the Mackorell-Hart Company. Floor space of the building was occupied by most interesting exhibits partitioned off into booths most artistically decorated in holiday colors and presided over by members of the various firms represented. Had the building been larger there would have been more exhibits. As it was, however, the building was the largest to be^found which was suitable for the purpose. Hundreds of people dropped in during the day to take a look at various articles on display and representatives of the various interests were convinced that the exhibit hall had proved quite a good advertisement for their respective businesses. F. C. Kiddle, local representative of the Delco Farm Lighting Plant which is manufactured in Dayton, O., had one of his machines on display In an attractive booth and the work of the engine was watched with interest by many people, including numerous farmers for whose special benefit it is manufactured. The electrical lighting plant affords all the advantages of electric lighting systems of the towns and cities and is proving quite popular in the country. It serves not only as a light plant but a water pump as well and through its use the resident of tho rural community may have all the advantages of the town or city. nr. Riddle's exhibit included various attachments tending to show that the rural housewife could have her electric iron, churn, fan and other conveniences through tho Delco. The York Furniture and Hardware Company showed a most interesting display of funiture and other household furnishings, the exhibit being under the direction of W. D. Thommasson of that firm. The articles on display including a kitchen cabinet, a Majestic Range, New Perfection Oil Stove, electric sewing machine and .a handsome maple bed room suite. The exhibit >f the Belk-Kirkpatrick company, arranged in a most artistically decorated booth proved very attractive to men and women alike. Included in the numerous articles on display were numerous things for men, women and children, portraying the . J.. .1 ?11 fntvillv iuicsl siyiL'a in ui vsa iui an wc ituunj. The pretty gooth was the work of J. M. Ramsey, manager of the store assisted by employee*. The York Hardware Company's booth next to that of the Kirkpatrick company was in charge of Manager J. Robert Barnwell. On display were a Caloric furnace, a Detroit Vapor stove, a washing machine of the most modern type and a well known make of bicycle which the company sells. Klutz & Smith, contractors and engineers of Concord, N. C., who have the contract for the street work in progress in Yorkville showed specimens of various kinds of road construction and street paving. The exhibit was housed in a very attractive booth, a background of which was a number of pictures showing road and street < jobs that the contractors had completed in other sections of the country. On display were specimens of bithulithic. asphalt, asphaltic and concrete, Finley's penetration and surface methods, willite and other well known types of road contruction. Samples on display also included lake asphalt and oil asphalt. The exhibit also included many samples of material used t>y the contractors in the construction of sand clay and top soil roads. Of unusual interest to many spectators were several demonstrations given by Messrs. Klutz of the mixing materials used in road construction. The Carroll Supply Company, agents ( for the well known Essex automobiles , had one of the beautiful machines on display and it drew the admiration of many people. J N'ext to their booth was the exhibit of the Yorkville Motor Car Company a Ford coupe and quite a complete line . of Ford parts. The exhibit was In , charge of S. L. Courtnev, proprietor J of the business and Miss Virgie Ferguson of the office force. At the right of the building near the entrance was the exhibit of the Hart Grocery company, most tastefully ' decorated and numerous groceries and 1 other edibles so well arranged as to 1 prove attractive. In the Graded School building was i staged a most interesting exhibit of 1 the Work of Home Demonstration i clubs of York county under the direc- 1 tion of Misses Minnie Lee Garrison i and Lillis Ashe, York county home ' demonstration agents assisted by Miss ] Ruth Berry of Seneca district agents < for the Home Demonstration work. The exhibits included many kinds of 1 canned fruit nnd vegetables. 1 WITHIN THE TOWN ( Mr. J. B. Pegram has purchased the H. R. Laws house and lot on Church or College street. < The Yorkville Cotton Oil company t Is now engaged In the Installation of a complete ginning outfit. It will be ready for business in ample time to handle the present crop. r Young people of Yorkvllle and a number of their Invited friends from other places enjoyed a dance Friday evening. The hop was held in C. F. Sherer's automobile show room, Mr. Sherer having caused all his cars to be removed from the building for the occasion. The prize fight fans of Yorkvllle and community have Mr. Willis G. Howie, the efficient manager of the Western Union, to thank for quick receipt of the news of the Dempsey-Willard battle last Friday. Mr. Howie made arrangements by which the press rate of The Enquirer was made available to a pool of subscribers, raised the necessary money among a dozen or more people and the news was bulletined at The Enquirer office very soon after the result developed. The an nouncement, however, that Pempsey had knocked Willard out in the third round left very little interest in further proceedings. The Fourth was a big day with the local Masons and visitors from all parts of the county. Their programme included an initiation ceremony in Philanthropic lodge room, conferring the Master Mason's degree on three candidates. Hon. S. T. Lanham, deputy grand master of South Carolina, presided and conferred the degree, being assisted by O. Frank Hart, grand secretary; Myron T. Sandifer, district deputy grand master; C. K. Chreizberg, and other visiting Masons. The lodge room was crowded with more than 200 visiting and local Masons- A feature of the evening was a banquet for the visitors, which was served in the Nichols's building on East Liberty street, by the Ladies' society of the Baptist church, some 225 plates being laid. John R. Hart, Esq., toast master, called on Hon. S T. Lanham, Col. W. W. Lewis, Messrs. O. Frank Hart, George S. Moore, S. Reid Spencer, W. B. Ardrey, R. L. Vinson, W. T. Beamguard, Geo. W Williams, and Hon. W. F. Stevenson, all of whom responded with short talks appropriate to the day and the occasion. In a talk at Masonic banquet last Friday night, Congressman Stevenson told how the status of the public building appropriation for Yorkville was about the same as that for Rock Hill Both appropriations are in the omnibus public building bill, and as to how far they will get will probably depend upon the intelligence and energybrought to bear behind him. He did not exactly say it; but from what he did say, he left his hearers to reason that unless they Interest themselves they need not expect congress to be very much interested. The committee in charge of this bill should be furnish ed with Information as to the size and progress of the town. It should havt> information as to the postal receipts, banking resources, and other such information. All this information backed by strong petitions from a unanimous population will help do the work quickly. But so long as the people wait congress will probably wait also. In this connection too, he stated, that with a little effort the town could get city delivery instead of village delivery, bringing an increase in the "payroll," in which everybody is or ought to be interested. There is to be a meeting in the courthouse tonight for the purpose of putting the new cotton mill proposition in more definitely organized shape. Information from W Mason McConnell, Mr. E. A. Hall and other promoters of the enterprise is to the effect that the success of the undertaking is an assured fact Mr. Hall, who as previously explained, was unaware of the movement until it was well underway, is now one of its most enthusiastic promoters. He is willing to put everything he has into it and then some, and many people that he did not even know previously, have assured him of strong financial support. He said Friday afternoon that^he had taken steps to see what could be done about securing help from the north, and he hoped to have information in time for the meeting tonight; but northern help or no northern help, he understands that the temper of the people here is to go on with it. Mr- McConnell said Saturday night that in addition to the subscriptions he had secured by solicitation, a number of subscribers had come to him with voluntary offers of from $100 to $1,000. A number of people who put down their names without designating the amounts they would subscribe, said they would certainly go not less than $5,000 each, and some of them promised to go $10,000, or more if necessary. The evidences of confidence and enthusiasm behind the whole proposition are unusually strong and the interest that will develop at the meeting tonight is expected to De most interesting. The larger the turnout at this meeting the more pleased will be the promoters. SIDELIGHTS OF THE FOURTH That York county will probably take a decidedly increased interest in the subject of good roads as a result of the Independence Day celebration in York ville Friday, was the opinion expressed by numerous thoughtful citizens who were in town Saturday. Both Governor Cooper and Congressman Stevenson presented powerful arguments for the cause of good roads and there was hardly a person in the large audience who heard them who was not convinced of the wisdom of building good roads from every standpoint, following their addresses. The matter of good roads for York was the principal subject of discussion among the more thoughtful throughout the day. Made the Moon Shine. In the course of his address Friday rv>or?rt\rt ct -n/Vion Via mnrlp rpfprPnP.O tO the fact that a good road from Chester to King's Mountain through the Bethany country, would divert travel from the low country to the mountains through this section, Congressman Stevenson >said: "They tell mo that some folks in the Battleground section occasionally make a little moonshine licjuor and that reminds me of a story told me by a Federal Judge at Salisbury a few years ago: A mountaineer by the name of Joshua Hinton had been convicted before this Ju4ge of illicit distilling. 'Your name is Joshua Hinton,' said the Judge, expecting to have a little fun at the expense of the moonshiner. " 'That is my name , sir,' replied Joshua. " 'And are you that Joshua who made the sun stand still?" inquired the Judge" 'No, sir,' replied Joshua, 'I am the Joshua who made the moonshine '" Demand for Cold Drinks. More than 200 gallons of ice cream and.hundreds of bottles of soft drinks were sold by Yorkville dealers to members of the great crowd in attendance upon the celebration Friday. The York Drug Store sold 115 gallons of ice cream, the Sheider-Snelling Drug company sold an Immense quantity and other stands conducted during the day UUVCIIIUl vvupci iCil XVI nvuiv x > lay afternoon on the C & N.-W. for i Columbia. It had been his original in- i ention to stay over for the Masonic i did a rushing business. The town fountain on the courthouse square was kept bu?y all day long. It was some hot day. Incidentally, it is of interest to note that Uncle Sam is somewhat better off as a result of Yorkville's big day through the revenue he will derive from the sale of soft drinks. Had he secured a tax on all the water drunk from the town fountain he would surely have made a killing. Good Order Maintained. Good order was maintained by the vast throng throughout the day. Mayor Johnson appointed several extra policemen to help the regular force keep things straight; but about all they had to do was to direct automobile traffic, which was a constant stream during the day. There was a little moonshine iquor, paw-paw and other rot-gut stuff In evidence among some of the members of the crowd; but they handled it pretty well and there was no indication of boisterousness. "It was one of the best natured, best behaved crowds I ever saw in Yorkville," said Chief of Police P. \V. Love. And the chief's recollection extends over a good many years. Governor Left Early. mi?rt v^wnio TVI. banquet Friday night, he being a past 1 grand master of the grand lodge, u Shortly after he completed his address d he received a telegram Informing him of the killing of Sheriff Hendrlx Rec- \ tor In Greenville and stating that there i was a possibility of trouble there. He s deemed It best to return to the state q capital In case of an emergency. While a in Yorkvllle he was the guest of Col. i] John R. Hart. He shook hands with c scores of his friends and admirers dur- r ing the day and he told an Enquirer r reporter before his departure that he f Wfl *v./\a4 nri inxrCk H thfl HflV T "au U,U01 UIWIWUOIU, ??1 and he believed that the Independence t Day celebration would result in great c good to the town and county. ^ Basket Picnic. t Many visitors to Yorkvllle brought n dinner with them and after the speax- v ing had been concluded and in some r Instances even before, shady nooks in ^ the vicinity of the Graded school were 1 dotted with people enjoying picnic din- ? ners. There was an abundance of f tried chicken and other good things and plenty to eat for all. Not only r were the Graded school grounds the t scene of basket dinner parties, but o other sections of the town held theirs 3 as well. ( Two Baseball Games Played More than a thousand people saw the c double-header baseball game which j was played on the Graded school ji lot Friday afternoon. The first game f of the afternoon was between teams of ^ Clover and Yorkville, the former nine 0 winning by a score of 16 to 8. The sec- a ond game was between teams from r Clover and Rock Hill, the lads from ? the eastern metropolis winning by a score of 2 to 1. i Everything Smooth. a "Everything went along smoothly r enough," said Mayor Johnson, in talk- 1 ing after it was over. "There was some ? little delay in the programme due to v the fact that the band was rather late c in getting here and other little delays; r but taken altogether the prepared r plans were carried out nicely. The t events of the day were a great boost c for road building in York county, and r besides what pleased me almost as r much was that everybody seemed to ? have a good time ana morougniy en joyed themselves." How Many Automobiles? How many automobiles were in t Yorkville for the day would be diffl- t cult to say. Nobody could count them because of the fact that they were scattered all over the town. Long lines of them were parked along the priiici- 1 pal streets of the town and everywhere. The number was not very far from 600 anyhow. It is not uninter- ' esting to note that the great majority t of them were Fords. Lots of folks t used the now almost obsolete method / of a wagon and couple of shafts to bring the folks to town and after night- I fall when things had quieted down I somewhat the rumble of the wheels -j over the hills carrying the folks back home could be heard. ^ Sold a Lot of Bunting Local houses which had the articles 3 for sale, did a rushing business in sell- ? ing bunting, flags and other parapher- ^ nalla used in decorations just before * I the big day. Most of the houses in * town were decorated in some manner c Ion account of the Fourth; the stores 1 and other business houses were all ? dolled up. Even the old eagle that has 1 been suspended by a wire from the t " nt"" Iti tVio husinpss office of The Yorkville Enquirer since the memory of the reporter runneth not to the con- ? trary, was given an extra dusting, and " he looked like a real American bird of the most famous type, as he held a couple of American, hags in his wicked . talons. ^ Many from Out of the County. E The visitors of the day Included C many .from eastern York county and f quite -a number of people from out of e the county. There was nothing dcing , in Rock Hill, Chester or Oastonia in the way of a Fourth of July celebration. Neither was there any public o celebration in any of the other towns b around, so many of the folks from b those climes came to Yorkville to en- 1' Joy the day. And everybody went a home saying that "Old Yorkville al- 8 ways did do herself proud when she n decided to have a big day." f a j HERE AND THERE J Mr. John M. Williford of Lesslie and r until recently a resident 'of Yorkville was among the visitors in Yorkville July 4. Mr. Williford said that the b crops in the Lesslie section were look- a ing pretty well and the outlook for a f prosperous year was encouraging. He o returned to his home in Lesslie on c Saturday. C ___ C Saturday in lorKviue was iamci ?j quiet after the big Fourth of July cele- -j bration the previous day. There were j very few people from out of town <j around, most folks who came to town ^ the day before deeming it to their best j, interests to put in Saturday at work on the crops. Local merchants and other j business people were not sorry and q | neither were they disappointed, being ^ quite tired and very well satisfied with q the business of the previous day. j The number of prisoners on the \ county chaingang at the present time j is the smallest in many years. 'There s; are now about twenty prisoners on t< the county chain gang and while the number may possibly be increased as la result of the next term of the court of general sessions, there will not be a great many additions if any. The chaingang is now working the Cherry G J Uo/llr Will Q nil Cll f fl whfl f( river and is making fair progress in road construction. p "Woodrow Wilson," a handsome . white collie dog, the property of Paul G N. Moore of Yorkville, attracted con- ,, siderable attention as he appeared in d the Fourth of July parade Friday. On jj a board placed on the hood of Mr. Moore's automobile which was one of ^ the long line of cars in the parade, ~ stood Woodrow, as calm and immov- p able as his famous namesake. The h handsome dog kept his perch throughout the long line of n^arch, never budging and apparently enjoying the oc- . casion as much as anybody else lf According to F. E. Clinton, deputy (i clerk of court the past six months has c been the busiest period that the office Si has experienced in many years. Mr. y Clinton said Monday that 620 deeds g had been transferred on the records c of the clerk's office in the period from a January 1, to July 1, and that in al- c most every instance a mortgage was s: recorded in connection with the trans- j fer of deeds. Unusual activities in ti real estate in every section of York n county is responsible for the mass of tl work which the forces in the clerk's t< office has been called upon to perform, p "I have many a time heard my g father speak of that fight between the -A two women over the piece of leather a at the close of the war," said Mr. R. c Li. Wilkerson to Here and There last E Saturday Mr. Wikerson's father was V the late C. E. Wilkerson, who lived ci about two miles northwest of York- V ville. His reference was to the lnci- ic dent related in this column last Fri- P day. "Yes, my father saw that fight," d went on Mr. Wilkerson, "and he used b to tell about it and laugh almost till w the tears came in his eyes. He E thought it was one of the funniest d things he ever saw-" M Mr. h#yle McConnell. linotype ma- S chinist of the Greenville Daily Piedmont was among the visitors in Yorkville on July 4, visiting his kinsmen ^ ? j tt* > r .Messrs. it. ?. anu >>. m. .uuv/uimcn and other York county relatives and friends. It was Mr. McConnell's first C1 visit to Yorkville in nearly twenty years and of course he noted many el changes and improvements since his D last visit. In the old days when The fl Enquirer was set up by hand and . printed pretty much the same way Mr. yy McConnell was employed here as a cj printer. Until his present visit he had not been hack since he left the employ of the paper. ^ Severn! hundred York county people principally from the northern section of the county went to Gastonia Sat- " urday to attend the monster celebra- y. tion there In honor of Gaston county's L returned soldiers and sailors. It Is estimnted that between 10,000 and 12,000 people attended the celebration, one of 0C the main features of which was a U parade in which more than 500 soldiers f>" most of them members of the 30th, tr 18th and 42nd divisions took part. One to of the main attractions of the day was in an aeroplane flight by Lieut. Brandt, o'1 an army aviator who flew over the dt city, doing various stunts to the won- to der and amazement of the huge crowd, vi 'he celebration came to a close Satrday night with a great pyrotechnic isplay. That the defeat of Champion Jess Villard at the hands of little Jack )empsey in the third round of the cheduled twelve-round prize fight at 'oledo, July 4 was a surprise and disppointment to most of the local boxng enthusiasts was evident from their ominent following the receipt of the lews by The Enquirer Friday afterloon. News of the result came In a lash to The Enquirer about 5 o'clock 'Vday afternoon and a short time later he details as to how It happened came iver the wire. Most of the local fans vera confident that big less would win he bout easily; but there were quite i few Dempsey backers around. There vas little If any local betting on the esult of the fight but there was conIderable interest in the outcome, The enquirer's bulletin board being surounded by folks who were keen to lear about it. Apropos of a discussion of the prp>osition of securing a fair compensaion for disabled privates and officers if the national army wounded or dieased while in the military service, Congressman Stevenson told the relorter Friday evening that he had inroduced a bill providing that the sum if $50 per month shall be paid all enn the military service and providing Isted men permanently disabled while urther that officers who are wholly lisubled shall receive fifty per cent f their regular compensation. Officers nd men of the regular army establlshnent receive this pay and Congressnan Stevenson sees no reason why irafted men and others who served >ut who do not belong to the regular irmy should not receive the same com>ensation. He told of the case of a leutenant-colonel now in Walter Reed losnital who lost, a lee" ovprspns nnri vhose rate of compensation on acount of disability was fixed at >15 per nonth. Yet a lieutenant colonel of the egular army would receive many imes that much. Mr. Stevenson's :ompensation bill has not yet been eported out of the house military comnlttee and officers of the regular army stablishment are making a strong ight on it. But he proposes to keep lammering until wounded men of the egular army, the national guard and he national army, are all placed on he same footing so far as compensalon for injuries is concerned. LOCAL LACONICS Will Be Tried in Chester. James Thompson, the old negro who pas arrested at Lockhart recently, for he murder of Isaiah Jeter, some fifeen years ago, has been taken to Chester for trial. It turns out that the dace of the killing on Mr W. C. Thomson's place, is just across the fork county line in Chester county. (?111 Meet Mecklenburg. Thos. W. Boyd, county supervisor, aid Monday that the county commlsioners will go to Wright's ferry, on Thursday, where they will meet the decklenburg county commissioners for he purpose of locating the bridge to ie built over Catawba river somewhere n the vicinity of Wright's ferry. York ounty will pay one-third of the cost of he bridge. Lnother Mill for Rock Hill. Mr. C. L. Cobb and other interested citizens of Rock Hill, have started a movement for the building of another otton mill in that city. Mr. Cobb, aftir a visit to Yorkville on July 4, and eeing what was doing here, wired Mr. Alexander Long, then in New York, .nd proposed the building of another nill. Mr. Long wired back telling Mr. Jobb to go ahead, that he would stand or half the money. Mr. Cobb and othrs are "going ahead." fork's Automobile Fees.
