Facts About the Recent Fires?The Poultry
Show?Lecturer Gibson?Oilier Matters.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
Rock Hill, February 14.?What came
near being a disastrous fire, occurred in this
city lust Monday night. At about 11 o'clock
persons who were skating in Roddey's hall,
discovered, through a ventilator in the floor,
that a fire was in progress in one of the
stores beneuth, and an alarm was promptly
sounded. Persons early on the ground located
the flames in the oil room of Hope &
Evans's, in the rear of their store. At that
time but slight progress had been made and
several buckets of water would have quenched
the flames, but it was not at hand, and iu a
few minutes it had assumed alarming proportions.
The fire department did not respond
promptly to the call, but the delay was not
Inner. The fire had eained much headway
and was raging within ; but the busy hum
of the engine at once gave assurance to those
who, but a moment before, were in despair.
The losses have not yet been ascertained,
but are covered by insurance. Hope &
Evans's stock was seriously hurt by fire and
water. J. W. O'Neal & Co's and T. P. Roddey's
stocks were damaged by water. Roddey's
hall is in a bad condition, injured to
some extent by fire.
The excitement occasioned by the fire,
referred to above, had hardly subsided
and the citizens who had returned to their
homes had perhaps not gone to sleep, when
they were aroused by a shrieking of the
factory whistles, and upon arriving on Main
street, the fire was found to be on the premises
of Dr. W. J. White. His barn was in
flames, and in a few minutes was entirely
consumed, together with his horse, mule and
wagon, and a lot of provender. Loss about
$700; no insurance.
The poultry show, which was held in this
city last Thursday and Friday, was a great
success. A number of fine chickens from
different points in the State were on exhibition.
J. P. Gibson, State lecturer and organizer
of the South Carolina grand lodge, I. O. G.
T., lectured in the Methodist church Monday
night.
Rev. J. Q. Adams, formerly of this city,
but now of Asheville, N. C., spent several
days here the past week.
Mr. and Mrs. Leroy Springs, of Lancaster,
were in the city yesterday.

by S. S. Plexico's store. The school
is presided over by Miss Sallie McCorkle, of
Shelby, N. C. There are thirty-five pupils
in attendance.
Dr. J. H. Saye has moved his household
goods to his cottage south of the station.
Judging from the clearings and outbuildings
that are being erected, the doctor is driving
down his stakes to stay.
Mr. W. S. Williams, of Blacksburg, has
moved his family to the Bob Ross cottage,
and will reside there this year.
Mr. Lee Garvin, of McConnellsville, has
also moved to this place.
Mr. J. P. Gibson, State lecturer and organizer
of the I. O. G. T., delivered a lecture to
a respectable audience in Woodlawn church,
on Wednesday night. The lecture was in
good taste and was very well received. His
ideas are clear and his language chaste and
forcible, and the conclusions reached and
announced was that the Evans law was a
step in the right direction. Parts of the
measure, however, he scored unmercifully.
Among other weak places, he pointed out
the provision that prohibited dispensers from
selling to known drunkards, but allowed
them to sell to moderate drinkers. This, the
lecturer argued, would enable the moderate
drinker to overtake the drunkard in his
downward course in a few years, and the
result will in no way contribute to the advancement
of the civilization of the State.
The thanks and good jvishes of our people
are due to The Enquirer for publishing
the full text of the Evans law, in
order that all may see what the legislature
has done for them in regard to the liquor
business.
Since the price of cotton seed has gone
to 30 cents cash, large quantities are being
sold. One farmer recently told me that he
had engaged to sell 1,200 bushels at 30 cents.
Now there is a danger line in this business.
Under ordinary prices, much of this cotton
seed would have gone into the soil as the
basis of a future corn or cotton crop. It
would also have been used to winter and
fatten cattle, which, by their droppings,
would have added to the farmer's bank.
However, as bacon is scarce, and we will
have to grease our bread with cotton seed
oil, probably it is best that it should be plentiful.
Anyway, every man to his own business.

SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS.
? Judge !?iiuoutuu iiua filed u decree ordering
the sale of the Three C's railroad. The
sale will take place on May 2nd, and the
minimum price is $550,000. Receiver Chamberlain
is appointed special master to conduct
the sale. The property will be sold
subject to the rights, title and interest of the
finance committee of Pennsylvania.
? It is s'atcrl fficially, says a Columbia
dispute.i, that Governor Tillman has selected
the first lloor of Agricultural Hall as the location
for the State liquor dispensary, which
may or may not go into being next July.
There is talk among the Prohibitionists of
calling a March conventi.>:i for the purpose
of preventing petitions in the various counties
from receiving the number of signatures
necessary to get dispensaries.
? A number of applications for pardons,
principally negroes, were received by the
board of penitentiary directors at their meeting
last Wednesday, having been referred to
them by Governor Tillman. Only one was
recommended to be granted, however, and
that was for an aged negro man recently
convicted of hog stealing, aud sentenced to
serve two years in the penitentiary. Since
incarceration he has gone blind, aud for that I
reason the board endorsed his application.
? The case against Bruno and Bennett, the !
two negroes charged with wrecking the \
train on the South Carolina railway at Lin- j
colnville, on the 28th of November, 1891,
was to have been tried at Mount Pleasant, |
Berkely county, last week, but on account |
of the absence of two important witnesses,'
was postponed until the next term of the j
circuit court. The case against the negroes,
it will be remembered, was worked up by j
Detective Dobson, of Yorkville.
? Gus Haynes, a well-known young man
of Greenville, committed suicide last Saturday.
For a day o'r two he had been drinking,
but not sufficient to attract any attention
to his condition, as he was quiet aud
? friendly. On Saturday he spoke several
times of killing himself, but no one paid
any attention to it. He invited one friend
to act as pallbearer. At a quarter before 2
o'clock, he went into the Garraux fruit store
on Maiu street, walked to the back part of
the store and said to a young man standing
near him: "Tell everybody that I love
them," and placed a pistol to his temple and '
fired. The bullet entered the right side of
his head and passed through the brain. He
lived about an hour, remaining unconscious
until death. The coroners inquest found a
verdict with the facts given. Haynes was
25 years of age, a carpenter by trade aud
not married.

A Small Thing.
A person canie into our drug store a short
time since and complained dreadfully of having
a most fearful cough and cold, Ihe cough continuous
and chestsplitting, making sleep impossible
the night long. Before the individual lefl
thestord he was detected in the theft of a bottle
of Campbell's Cough Cure. Here was a plain
infraction of the "statute made and provided."
Was it a violation of the moral law ? If a person
famishing from hunger is .justified in appropriating
food that does not belong to him,
was not this man, suffering as we was, excusable
in purloining a medicine which he knew
would give him sleep and freedom from pain
and a cure for his bodily ailments? We let him
take the Campbell's Cough cure without protost,
giving him with it the benefit of the doubl
in the premises if there is any. The moral ol
this, if there is any, would seem to be?take
Campbell's Cough Cure. If possible pay for it;
if you can't pay for it, take Campbell's Cough
Cure.
John C. Kuykendal.
A Big Thing.
In last week's Enquirer we told of a gentleman
who in 186(1 or '67, paid 8125.00 per ton foi
Pacific Guano, and found its use profitable at
that price. Its use this year at 825.00 per tor
ought to pay 500 per cent, better, as cotton is now
about the same price that it was in 1867. Farm

Another Thing Not Small.
We are the agents for the Globe Phosphate
Company, of Columbia, S. C., and in the pasl
three weeks, without special efforts, have sold
over 200 tons of their fertilizers, and still the
orders for them come in daily. Persons are
buying these, goods who have used them foi
three seasons. This speaks well for the value
of the fertilizers and the sat;sfaction they give
the farmer, and the immense demand shows that
we are selling at figures which please the purchaser.
Write for our car-load prices.

t the matter even stronger. You need a Harrow

Dear Sirs: With the seed obtained from
you, (GOLI) DUST) I planted half an acre in
checks, .1 feet .'1 inches, by 2 feet 10 inches, and
have picked from it over 1,200 pounds of seed
cotton, on passing fair land, moderately fertilized
at time of planting at a cost of about 82.75.
Tho result was abundantly satisfactory, making
very nearly double as much as the best of my
leading varieties, under like circumstances of
soil, seasons, fertilization, etc. This of course
makes the great merits of your seed, and chief
among them being its earliness, and bearing
from the ground to the very top and maturing
every boll, leaving MO STAINED COTTON.
* * * Not naving ginned any measured
quantity for ascertaining the yield of lint, I am
unprepared to pass judgment, but in all other
respects I unhesitatingly pronounce it the best
Cotton, for general purposes and seasons, that
I am thus far acquainted with. * *
"S. I. GAILLARD, Superintendent.
After another year's experience, November
18th, 18D0, ho writes:
"THE GOLD DUST SEED is tho EARLIEST
I HAVE DISCOVERED; maturing all
before the earliest frost. Can be planted closer
than other-limbing varieties, and will yield 34
pounds lint per 100 Seed Cotton.

December 7, 1801, writes:

OUR FRIENDS
ARE reminded of the fact that we
have in stock an unusually fine
aasortment of Garden Seeds. We
handle only fresh and reliable seed,
put up in FULL papers?no quarters
and halves?as with our customers a
paper of seed is not a paper of seed,
regardless of its contents; but they
expect full measure and that is what
we give. We sell straight, reliable
goods and propose to protect our trade
from both fair and unfair competition.
We have a fine lot of Onion sets.
PLOWS AND PLOWSTOCKS.
WE have Plows, Plowstocks, Trace
chains, Backhands, Plow lines, Heel
screws, Collar pads, and in fact everything
in the way of fitting out a plow
"beast" for business.
WE SELL HARDWARE
OF every description and are always
anxious to show goods and quote
prices.

in coming in to take a look around. Everything
is warranted to be just as represented, and
in all cases the prices on articles that were saved

ROYAL KID GLOVES.
Here is a special bargain. We have on hand
a long line of Royal Kid Gloves. The former
price was 81.10 to 81.25 and 81.50. We are now
offering them at 75 cents a pair.
THE SPRING TRADE.
Our Mr. Hunter will leave for the Northern

Oats has just been received by us. They are

postponed we may not have them when wanted.
We Heartily Commend
The efforts put forth by the farmers of this section
last year to produce all necessary supplies
at home, and hope they will continue along this
line. Rut. notwithstanding this fact, we have recently
received a car load of New Orleans Molasses
of various grades and are prepared to quoto
"get their prices" to all who want something
axtra fine.
We Lead the Flour Trade
In this section, and don't propose to take a back
seat for anybody. We have in store and on tho
way, FOUR car loads of various grades. Right
now is the time to buy and wo are the people to
buy from. Prices have advanced some and will
very likely go still higher. Don't get caught.
You won't get it any cheaper than we are olt'oring
today, and if you put the matter otl'you may
pay a great deal more.
Guano and Acid.
We are, as usual, on top in the Fertilizer business.
We control the most popular, ami, therefore,
the host brands sold in this section, and wo

your own interest if you buy without tirst seeing
us.
Bacon and Lard.
These very essential commodities are, as you
doubtless know, "away up," but we have them
nevertheless. It takes "long money" to get
any considerable quantity. We can't help it;
would if we could. Ill DDI.K A CARHOI.L.
