LETTER FRO~M CHESTER.
Chester, March 11.?The funeral services
of the Rev. Robert Y. Mills were
held last Wednesday at Hopewell church,
the body having been brought from Lancaster
on Tuesday. Mr. Mills was a young
man of excellent promise. He was educated
at Erskine College, standing high in
his class. After completing his studies,
entering upon the active work of the minKa

for some time, and then assumed the pastorate
of the Lancaster A. R. P. Church,
when he suddenly fell last Monday in the
, midst of his labors. His death was caused
by congestion of the liver, and was very
sudden, Mr. Mills having preached two
sermons on the day before. The deceased
was married only four or five months before
his death, his wife being formerly a
Miss Martin, of Georgia, and a niece of
Dr. W. M. Grier. Mr. Mills was about
twenty-eight years of age.
The hot supper given by the ladies of
the Methodist church at Nail's Hotel last
week was well attended and proved to be
both palatable and profitable. Another
supper will be spread by the same ladies
during court week.
A white man was arrested at Edgemoor
eight or ten days ago, who was supposed
to be the Lancaster horse-thief, Gregory.
The suspected man gave as his nattie the
common noun; Smith. He was taken before
Trial Justice Magill who helped him
on his way to the county jail, where he was
safely sheltered until more could be learned
as to his identity. The sheriff of Lancaster
was notified of the detention of the
suspected man, and he sent over to see if
the right man had been captured. The
prisoner turned out to be somebody else.
Smith was accordingly released from custody
on Friday. It was noticed that the
prisoner seemed to have more ready cash
about him than his other circumstances
would ordinarily bespeak, and a suspicion
was aroused that there might be some
" ?? -- 1 1 Ti tknnnht
counierieu oa nauu. n was mai muugiu
that there might be some grounds for investigation
in this line, but there was not
sufficient cause to justify any action.
TJie directors of the Chester Manufacturing
Company held a meeting on last
Wednesday to consider the question of
adding another floor to their building.
The first intention was to build a weaving
mill only, but it was afterward thought
advisable to add another story so that
the company would have room to make
their own yarn. The directors decided at
once to add the additional floor. Work
on the building is pushing forward rapidly
of late, although of course the walls creep
up slowly in such a large buildiug. The
lower of the two floors, which is ten or
twelve feet above the ground, is composed
of two layers, the lower being of three
inch plank running lengthwise with the
building. The upper layer is of inch and
a quarter flooring laid diagonally. All
the lumber used in the factory building
comes from Mr. Peter Hoffman's saw-mills
near Blythewood. It will take between
six and seven hundred thousand feet to
complete the main building and the engine
and dye house. The bricks used will
all be of Chester make, and nearly half a
million will be necessary.
Messrs. Giles J. Patterson, J. J. McLure,
J. A. Dodson, J. Lyle Glenn, T. E. McLure
and W. M. Nicholson, as corporators,
have applied for and obtained a charter for
an electric lightcompany to be established
here. The capital stock of the new company
is fixed at $15,000 in shares of $100
each.
There wa8 a meeting here to-day of the
directors of the Chester Agricultural, Horticultural
and Mechanical Association, the
object of the meeting being to revise and
extend the premium list for the next Fair.
Last year the premium list was not published
until in July, but this year the in~
tention is to have it out as early as May, if
possible. There were present at the meeting
to-day, R. T. Mockbee, Jesse H. Hardin,
S. MeC. Caldwell, J. W. Dunnovant
and S. Moore Wylie. The premium list
was enlarged by a number of additions,
and every effort will be put forth to make
the Fair next October a signal success. It
is also hoped that the other three counties
interested in the association, Fairfield,
Lancaster and York, will help in the good
work more liberally than they have been
doing for the past few years. The directors
have abolished entirely all dead head
tickets for the future.
Rev. Wra. Anderson of Rock Hill, will
occupy the pulpit of the Presbyterian
churh next Sunday.
Mr. E. Brooks Sligh has settled for the
present at Chester, having entered the
law office of Mr. W. A. Sanders.
Mr. W. F. Coleman and Mr. W. A.
Hardin both speak of entering the premium
corn contest, about which so much
has been said of late in the papers.
Six negro soldiers from Charleston were
put off the train last Thursday night on
their way home from the inauguration.
Before reaching Chester the conductor
found out that there six more men riding
on their ticket than the ticket itself called
for. The surplus was promptly reduced
when the train reached the depot here.
Mag Smith, colored, was up before trial
justice Leckie on Friday, charged with
having stolen thirty dollars from Mrs. K.
M. Mobley, of Blackstock. For want of
sufficient evidence the prisoner was discharged.
Mr. D. P. Jarrett received a telegram
on Friday announcing the sudden death
of his aged father at Lincolnton.
Mr. Daniel Robinson and Mrs. Rhoda
Dodds were married on the 6th instant by
Trial Justice Darby.

NOTES FROM BLACKSTOCK.
Blackstock, March 11.?Our community
was shocked and saddened last Tuesday
morning at learning through a telegram
received by Maj. Ed. Mills, of the
sudden death of his son, Rev. Robt. Mills,
pastor of the A. R. P. church at Lancaster.
It seems that, after preaching two sermons
on last Sabbath, he went to bed in
?his usual health, but during the night he
was seized with some very severe form of
congestion, and died about three o'clock
Monday afternoon. His remains were
brought home for interment, and on
Wednesday a large concourse of people
assembled at Hopewell church to pay the
last tribute of respect to one who had so
recently gone forth from our midst to enter
upon the sacred calling of preaching the
gospel. Besides Rev. John A. White, the
pastor of Hopewell church, there were
present Revs. Moffatt and Blakely, of the
A. R. Presbyterian church, Revs. Duncan
and Attaway, of the Methodist church,
and Revs. McLin, Douglas and Neville, of
the Presbyterian church. All these ministering
brethren took part in the solemn
exercises. Mr. Mills was graduated from
Erskine College but a few years ago, and
bad been laboring only a few short months
at Lancaster, where a field of great usefulness
seemed to be opened up before him,
when the summons of the Master came
and he was called to "come up higher."
His last visit to Blackstock was made last
fall, when he came accompanied by a lovely
young bride, whom he had wooed and
- won in a distant otaie. rurner anu uie
| other members of the sorely stricken fam?
ily, our whole community feels the deepest
sympathy.
On last Thursday night the dwelling of
a negro tenant on Mr. Robt. Hemphill's
place near Blackstock, was destroyed by
fire, together with all its contents. The
occupants were aroused in time to save
their lives, but nothing else.
Messrs. John Brice, Robert Douglass and
Charlie McClerkin have recently come
borne from attending lectures at the
Charleston Medical College.
Mr. E. E. Corn well, of Cornwell's Turn- j
out, has recently moved his family to1
Blackstock, where he can get the scho(
advantages needed by his children. Hi
oldest sou* Fitz, has been ill with pneu
monia, but is now considered much bettei
Dr. Lackey, of our tow n, has also beei
quite sick, though he now seems to b
convalescent.

LETTER FROM LANCASTER.
Lancaster, March 11.?The court ha
been in session here all the past week, try
ing cases in the court of general sessions
The criminal business was more than usu
ally heavy, which is a matter of regret t
the law abiding citizens, to see crime in
creasing instead of diminishing. But th
offences, with a few exceptions, were most
lv of the milder grade, which gives som
hope and consolation. There were tw
homicide cases which resulted with th
usual verdicts in such cases, "not guilty.1
James Morgan was acquitted on a chargi
of slaying Samuel Caton, and Noah Wil
liams and Titus Cauthen were acquittei
on a charge of killing Gadsden Earle
The defense set up by Morgan in the firs
case, and by Noah Williams in the latte
case, .was self-defense. How imminen
was the peril in each case, if the testimc
ny of each of the defendants be taken a
true! It is a very common observatioi
here now that if one man strikes another ai
ordinary blow he is likely to be punishe<
for it, but if he kills another there is m
danger of punishment; that now-a-day
all killing is done in self-defense. It i
certainly the case that the lawyers find i
easier to get a man off, and free from al
punishment in the case of a charge fo
murder, than in a case where he is chargec
only with assault and battery. This cer
tainly shows necessity for reform in thi
law, as is admitted on all hands. Bu
what that reform should be to correct th<
evil, men differ.
Judge Hudson, with commendable zea
in the interest of good government, recom
mends that the law should be so changec
as not to require a unanimous verdict 01
the part of a jury. This would doubtles
be a good change, and tend towards pun
ishing the guilty. But of still more con
sequences, in our judgment, would it be
to change the constitution, and permit th<
circuit judges, in all cases, civil as well a
criminal, to instruct juries on the facts a
well as the law of the case. The average
juror desires to do right, but he has ver:
little education, and he is not well inform
ed. He can not well apply the facts, ii
complicated cases on the civil side; anc
on the sessions side, when the lawyers ge
to talking about "doubts," and "reasona
ble doubts," after the prisoner has beei
sworn in his own behalf, he needs instruc
tion on many points from the presidinj
judge; and how needful would be the in
struction from an able and impartial pre
siding judge, who has no interest but ti
see justice fairly and impartially adminis
tered, on many points arising in a case1
This one thing we need more than an^
other to make our jury system efficient
and without it, "trial by jury" will sooi
become a failure. The jury have had lit
tie or no opportunities and they need ii
all cases instruction, light on the path o
duty; and who would be more preparet
to give this light and instruction than ai
honest, fair minded circuit judge, who sit
on the trial and sees and hears all the testi
mony ?
Only two convicts are to be sent to thi
penitentiary as the result of this court
Richard Gardner, white, goes to the pen
itentiary for punishment in two cases, flvi
years in each case, for horse stealing. Hi
pleaded guilty and confessed that he de
livered the horses to a man in Columbii
or near there, who, he says, participated ii
the profits. And the other is William Mc
Croy, convicted of house breaking and lar
ceny?sentenced to one year in the peni
tentiary. Others were fined or imprison
ed in the county jail. Judge Fraser open
ed ihe court of common pleas on Saturday
and will continue a part of this week
The civil business is light.

est, most modest, and most lovely younj
ladies, will be escorted up to Hymen'i
altar. The youDg man who has won he:
heart and gained her hand may well con
sider himself fortunate.
We close by chronicling a sad death ii
this town. The Rev. R. Y. Mills, pasto
of the A. R. P. Church at this place, preach
ed on Sunday of last week two sermons, oni
in the county and one in the town. Hi
appeared to be in the full vigor of goot
health. But on Monday morning befori
day, about 3 o'clock, he took some
thing like a cbngeslive chill from whicl
he never recovered, and died that even
ing about 4 o'clock. He left a very ac
complished and lovely young bride, thi
grand daughter of the late Dr. R. C. Grier
so well and favorably known in York, t<
mourn his (apparently) untimely death
Rev. Mr. Mills was very highly esteemet
here, and his wife has the sympathy o
the entire community. Nosilla.

North Carolina legislature adjourneti^a
noon last Monday. The legislation oLUh
session was generally unimportant. Pro
vision was made for more fully pensioninj
Confederate veterans and needy widow
of Confederates, a tax of three cents 01
each hundred dollars worth of property
and nine cents on the poll being levied fo
that purpo:- Action was taken that wil
probably result in completing the Govern
or's unfinished mansion. The State elec
tion laws were modified so that registra

an election, and that pollholders who thei
deem it proper may separate State an<

THE GREAT BARGAIN HOUSE!
1AM now receiving my Spring stock of
MILLINERY directfrom the heart of fashion?New
York and Baltimore?which shall be
as good as ever you saw at my old house that
was burned, and at prices "lower than you ever
saw them before, and I can tell you why. Be2ause
I Sell for Cash and Buy for Cash.
Setting off all discounts, and buying under
such favorable circumstances, I will be able to
offer you bargains not offered elsewhere, for
common sense will teach any one that no person
will sell goods as cheap and charge them as they
can be sold for cash. Where is the firm that will
sell a paper of Needles or Pins at one cent and
charge them ? None ; no, not one. You will
certainly be charged 8i or 10 cents for them.
So you see the difference will be from 700 to 800
per cent.
I will, in addition to Millinery, keep all
kinds of
Dry Goods, Shoes, Shirting,
Alamance and all
kinds of Motions,
A.nd will sell you everything as low as you
can buy any where. ,
I have made arrangements with Auotlbn
Houses in
BOSTON AND NEW YORK,
Whereby I will get out bargains weekly, and
will be prepared to sell you auction goods very
low for casn.

Of all kinds, and as good a Shirt as there is in

IN THE METROPOLIS.
BY the time this advertisement reaches the
readers of The Yorkville Enquirer,
I will be in the great metropolis of the United
States buying my Spring stock of Dry Goods
and Millinery, which I guarantee shall bo one
of the grandest efforts of my life. I will be
assisted by Misses SHIRES and ANTHONY
whose taste is too well known in this part of
the State to need one word of endorsement from
me. But, however, as has already been intimated,
I propose to supply LATIMER'S
FASHION BAZAAR WITH THE MOST
ARISTOCRATIC AND HANDSOMEST
STOCK OF GOODS EVER BEHELD IN THE
UPPER PART OF SOUTH CAROLINA.
It is my intention to make my establishment
an institution that the whole of York county
will be proud of. It shall be second to no
such establishment in the State. ?
On notification by postal card, or otherwise,
my carriage will meet all parties on the Three
C's road, at Liberty Street Depot, and convey
them to and from my store FREE OF
CHARGE
Prompt Payment Is Essential
To a good credit, which by the way is a very
good thing to remember, as I am one of the
very few in the Dry Goods business who extend
credit accommodations to patrons.
EIDERDOWN IN COLORS.
I have several pieces of Eiderdown left which
I will close out at a bargain. Call and see it.
I offer inducements for cash and you will do
well to call and see me when you want anything
in my line.
Buying on Credit With Money in Yonr
Pocket
Is a practice which a large number of people
engage in and which works nothing but embarrassment
and extravagance to parties who
indulge in it. You need credit when you have
no money, and your credit is measured by
your disposition and ability to pay. Of course
if you buy necessary goods on credit and pay
cash for luxuries, you are more than apt to
jeopardize your credit and probably work
hardships which may require a life time to
overcome.
UNDERWEAR FOR LADIES.
I have a large stock of Underwear for Ladies
and Children which I am closing out at greatly
reduced prices. Call and examine this stock
of goods. Also Children's Underwear.
A Job Lot of Hair Brushes and Combs.
I have just received a job lot of Hair Brushes
and Combs which I am able to sell at very
close figures. Call and get one while you have
the oportunity.
500 YARDS OF JEANS.
I have on hands 500 yards of the very best
quality of Jeans which must and will be sold.
The price at which I am offering it is very low;
in fact it is cheaper than I can replace the goods,
but I must have cash at the price invariably.
Another Lot of Fine Dress Goods.
Of all the nice Dress Goods that I have ever
handled, my stock of German faced Henrietta
Finished Dress Goods beats them all. They
are 36 inches wide, and twenty-five cents per
yard is the price that I am selling them, and
they are certainly the cheapest and best goods
1 ever handled.
My Laces and Embroideries range from
2 cents per yard up and they must go.
MISCELLANEOUS BARGAINS.
I have just received a large lot of the celebrated
NEW HOME SEWING MACHINES
which are undoubtedly the best machines on
the market.
A first-class Traveling Bag can be obtained
from me at a bargain.
In fact I handle everything, and you can get
anything you want from a toilet pin to the
finest silk dress under one and the same roof.
MY GROCERY DEPARTMENT
Is filled to overflowing with choice and seasonable
Groceries, which are always sold at the
very lowest possible prices, and I am always
pleased to wait on my friends in this line.
FERTILIZERS.
I am handling John Merryman's Guano this
year. I have had the agency for these goods
for the past fifteen years and I have heard no
complaint. They are high goods and I will
be pleased to quote prices. Iam also handling
the Ashley Acid.

CURE YOUR COUGH.
OOUGHS and colds are prevalent and are the
Ly source of great annoyance. If they are
illowed to run their course, much inconvenence
and seriously impaired health is often
ho result. The ordinary cold can almost invariably
be cured by one or two doses of the
>roper kind of medicine. This we have, and
ve will be pleased to have it tried. You can
;et a sample bottle for ten cents, and after you
tre convinced of its merits, you can get a larger
lottle, containing more than three times the
I uantity, for twenty-five cents. After atrial,
ve have no doubt but that you will realize the
visdom of keeping this medicine on hand.
fVe have absolute control of a cough medicine
hat is superior to any remedy that has ever
leen placed in this market.
Patent and Proprietary Medicines.
Whenever you see a patent or proprietary
nodicine advertised in a newspaper or elsewhere,
and think you would like to try it, just
call on us and we will endeavo^ to furnish you
with the desired article. We try to keep on
land all medicines that have any real merit,
md never knowingly offer for sale a worthless
lostrum. Sometimes you see a remedy advertised
"sold only by so and so." If the remjdy
is a valuable one, we generally manage to
;et it in stock. The manufacturer may refuse
;o sell to any one but his agent, but we get the
medicine all the same, and sell it at the manufacturer's
price. We have on hand a long list
if patent and proprietary medicines, too numerous
to be mentioned in this space. Among
.hem are specific remedies for nearly every nil ilHl
aieut to which to flesh is heir. JT~you will
inly describe the trouble, we will furnish the
medicine for its cure or relief. It is frequently
,he case that you can get relief from a valuable
patent medicine, even when a regular physician
is unable to do anything for you.
WHITE LEAD.
We have been advertising the Phoenix Brand
if White Lead quite extensively recently, and
;lie centre shots that have been made in our
statements are beginning to tell. Although
white lead is a staple article of merchandise
whose principal recommendation is its indispensability
in securing the best results, in
view of existing notions that have been worked
up within the past few years with regard to less
valuable substitutes, we have deemed itadvisakin
ffAtn fimn fn fimo mif. in fl. fflW In
its behalf straight from the shoulder. This is
the only apology for advertising the merits of a
paint that stands among paints like unalloyed
old stands among the metals.
We have just perfected arrangements by
which we can paint the houses of responsible
parties with no inconyenience to the owners.
We will furnish the material, the painters and
:lo the work, and the bill may be paid next
fall if it does not suit to pay it now.
