The Cotton Mills' Whistle.
Editor Hamel. of the Kershaw ^
Era, evidently doesn't like our t
cotton mill whistle, nor the whistier,
for he takes two shots at ,
them in his paper of Wednesday, j
Hear him: :
If Kershaw ever does have a ,
cotton mill, and of course there ;
Will be one here some day. we | e
plead most earnestly that it he o
not attended with a whistle or v
Whistler akin to those attached r
to the Lancaster mill.
r
Then again. doubtless recalling .
to mind how the aforesaid whis- n
tie and whistler had disturbed v
his earlv morning nan while on a
w V > y
visit to Lancaster, Editor Hamel j
discharges the following at the ^
innocent cause or causes of his
interrupted slumbers: ^
The man in charge of the Lan- y
caster mill whistle certainly en>
joys his work of waking the in- j 1
habitants of the mill village, and 1
incidentally the citizens of the i
town and any visitors who may t
be sojourning there. He evi- {
wient^ly must be either without
_ - nerves or hearing, or has some i
I debt of revenge to pay which can ! (
^ only be discharged by the pro- i <
longed nerve racking blast of t
that able bodied whistle, which ,
that prince of mill presidents. '
Col. Leroy Springs, should have :
speedily abolished. ! '*
Now, what's the matter with 1
i*i # 1
r that whistle? Its mission in life. 1
so to say, is to make a noise. '
isn't it? and doesn't it fulfil that,1
mission with a vengeance? It's '
\ true that the noise is a loud one, ;'
\ can be heard as far as twenty or *
more miles when atmospheric :
conditions are favorable, but the
sound is not unpleasant to the
ear, being deep and sweetly sonorous?not.hinj?
irratinir. distract
? ? I
ing or nerve-racking about it.
There was. however, years
ago, a blamed thing at the mills
here that was wont to rent the
air with the most unearthly, uncanny,
screeching, hair-raising
shrieks, but we kicked so vigorously
against its devilish, dam- ,
nable stunts that finally President
Springs and Superintendent
Skipper, assisted by Secretary
and'.Treasurer Thomson, carried
it off bodily in the dead hours of
night and tied it out in the distant
woods, where it blew its
fool self to death, its only requiem ;
being the sad soughing of the
forest and the sepulchral song!
of the midnight owl.
Yes. the present whistle is all
right, and so is the whistler.
They have never been known to
awaken the dead, but what they
do about daylight these mornings .
to sleepy editors and niggers is a .
plenty.
A big snake was killed on Rock
Hill's principal street the other
day. Thus evidence continues
to accumulate that our neighbor
is either a "deserted village" or
isn't yel "out of the woods."!
First, 'possums overrunning the
town, then snakes what next!
Anna Held, the actress, says i
