Falls, who lives seven miles ! ^ north of Yorkville, presented Thk Enquir- p er last week with some delicious June ap- { ^ pies of the "Carolina Ked" variety. They c, are the largest and finest June apples we p have ever seen grown in this country. Mr. a Falls says he has about 100 trees, and it e' strikes us that the orchard ought to be made to yield a handsome revenue. Rock Hill Eqjoined. ? In the United States court at Charleston, last Saturday, Judge Siinonton issued an v order restraining the mayor and town council of Rock Hill from collecting a city tax ci from the Richmond and Danville railroad, b The city council is cited to show cause at 8 Greenville, on August 7, why the writ should ^ not be made permanent. The railroad peo- u pie claim that the city of Rock Hill have illegally assessed the railroad property at t< much more than it is worth. o The "Champion" Roller Mills. ^ ? We call especial attention to the ad- P vertisement of the "Champion" roller mills, ? G. L. Riddle proprietor, in another column. a The mills have now been in operation about t) two weeks, and having ground several hun- w dred bushels of grain, the universal verdict li is that they do their work perfectly. We v have no doubt but that Mr. Riddle will - . ... v. grind the bulk of the wheat raised in this " county this year, and we are satisfied that P his enterprise will give an immediate impe- j( tus to the increased production of that long q neglected staple in this section. tc A Good Gardener. r* ? Mr. J. D. Gaulden, superintendent of Sl the County Home, is a first-class gardener. ^ On yesterday he presented The Enquirer 01 with a basket of vegetables which fully attest Tl the fact. Among the vegetables was a "Bluetop" turnip, eight inches in diameter rc and weighing jiearlj four pounds, two fully developed "Champion" cabbage heads, some a splendid specimens of Goodrich and Peerless potatoes, and several red onions unusually c* large for this season of the year. Mr. Gaulden informs us that he has an abun- hi dance of garden vegetables for present needs, T1 and enough potatoes, onions, etc., to carry him far into, if not through, the winter. a{ Through the summer ho will come pretty near supporting the inmates of the county home on vegetables. jn tl HOCK HILL HAPPENINGS.

Burned by an Incendiary. y ? Sidney Park Colored Raptist church, of t Columbia, which for months past has been the scene of factional disturbances of a divided congregation, was destroyed by fire \ last Friday night. The loss is $14,000 and T the insurance is $7,000. It is the general ~ opinion of both white and colored that the fire was the work of a incendiary belonging to one cr the other of the contending factions. Objected to the Marriage. ? Some excitement prevailed in the generally quiet town of Williamsburg last Thursday, says a correspondent of the Greenville News, when Augustus McCnrley met i Ben Wallace on the street, and, after asking < him if he was armed, immediately began , firing at him with his revolver. As Wallace m retreated, McCarley placed five shots in the direction he was going, none taking effect. The trouble grew out of the fact that Wal-j lace was making arrangements to elope with i and marry the sixteen-year-old daughter of McCarley. The facts will be brought out later. ! ltrookt SU^Ii i>i Trouble. |, ? Quite a sensation was created here in J' Southern circles by the arrest late last night ^ of E. Brooks Sligh, of South Carolina, says the Washington correspondent of The News! and Courier, in his dispatch of last Saturday. \ c< Mr. Sligh, it will be remembered, is the ? young man who ran for congress at the last reelection in the district which Thomas Jef- j.; ferson Strait, of Lancaster, was successful.! T Some time ago Sligh swore out a warrant; against a Mrs. Emily J. Brazier, of this city. He alleged that Mrs. Brazier stole |s ,vo trunks from liim containing goods val-; ed at $250. Tonight two detectives called 1 t Sligh's lodgings ami arrested him on the harge of perjury. Mrs. Brazier declarers! lat Sligh is guilty of "wilful and corrupt j erjury." Sligh is equally positive of the 1 uth of his offensive assertions. He is a | oung man of good standing here and is well ked all over town. He is employed as a1 lerk in the United States senate. His | iends have assured him of their sympathy.: te is now confined in the first precinct :ation house. IMg Payment Completed. ?

Till Not Open Until the 8th. ? The Richland board of control has deided not to open the dispensaries in Columia until the 8th. The principal reason iven was that the board did not care to ave any Fourth of July disturbances due to ispensary liquor. id Not Do It ? It was reported that one of the Charles>n barkeepers, backed by the funds of f the State Barkeepers' association, was to eep opjn his place of business after the disensary law went into operation, sell liquor, nd submit to arrest in order to make out a ist case for the United States court. Quite number of the saloons are yet open with leir liquors still on their shelves, but all ould-be purchasers are informed that the quor is not for sale. 'Ill Continue to Curry Liquor. ? The Richmond and Danville railroad as announced its intention to receive, transort and deliver all packages consigned to whether they contain liquor or other goods. | ; says its agents are instructed to ask no uestions, but to receive a barrel on the same ;rms that they could receive a tub. The lilroad people are confident they will be istained by the United States supreme court ecision in regard to the tiasportation of riginal packages. he Price of Dlnpensartv Liquor. ?

These prices apply to both rye and >rn liquors. The prices of other liquors ave not yet been published. IiIh Is Convenient. ? Anderson Intelligencer : A few days ;o, for the first time, we saw a liquid lipping case which has been adopted by ie United States government for sending hisky through the mail. They are made i one-half pint, pint and quart sizes, and ie postage is 5, 10 and 15 cents respectively, his will enable persons living in towns here there are no dispensaries, and who 2ed a little whiskey for medicinal purposes, > order it from some place and have it sent irough the mail. irst Day's Sale. ? So far dispensaries have been opened in it twelve of the thirty-four counties, and lly two were in a position to begin operaon on the first day, July 1. These were ; Camden and Newberry. Up to 12 o'clock : Saturday the Camden dispensary sold 110 nts of whisky and two dozen bottles of ?er. During the day, the Newberry disinsary had about 100 applications for pints id half pints, and altogether sold $18 worth ' whisky. The small demand is attributed i the fact that consumers had already ;anked up" with barroom whisky at reiced prices. irllngton Dispenser KnJoined. ? Judge Hudson, on last Thursday, grautI an injunction against County Dispenser loyd, of Darlington, restraining him from ring business on the ground that his petion had not been signed by a majority of ie freehold voters of the county seat. The tse is to be heard tomorrow, and the board control is ordered to appear before the dge and show cause why the permit for ie dispensary was issued, and why the spenser was appointed. The dispensary, ' course, did not open for business on last iturday. Governor Tillman, on being iked what he thought of the injunction, id that if the people were not satisfied with ie action of the county board, they should ive appealed to the State board. WORLD'S FAIR NOTES. ?ry Curious Proceedings. ? So far, the Columbian exposition guards ; ive made about 500 arrests. Of these, iwever, less than forty have been serious lough to require a formal hearing, and the i leged offenders have been released without | ial. ) More of the Money. ? The Exposition authorities have been rid about half of the souvenir half dollars | imetime ago voted by congress. According j i the terms of the attorney general's recent j rinion, the balance will remain in the treas-1 ry. It is thought that instead of being re-, rined, they will be put in circulation by, ie government at par. Pekfer Scents a Panic.?Senator Peffer, : Kansas, was interviewed last week as to ie probable action of congress at the comi<t ovfra srssinn. 'r> ""* *? ? "The Sherman law will be repealed the rst thing." he said. "The effect of this ill be to destroy both of the old parties and nild up a new one. That will be followed ; y a new alignment of parties. Some new j rganizations are soon to come into exisiucc. The People's party is but the pre- j minary make up of the new one which is to isume control.

Equitable Life Assurance society ofj the United States, for $5,000, and j have paid, in all, $4,768 in premiums to the company. O11 the maturity of the Endowment, the company paid me $7,885.30 in cash. As an evidence of my satisfaction with this return (which is certainly liberal, considering the fact that it is I in addition to the protection furnish- j ed by the policy for twenty years,) I have new assurance with the company for $10,000.

June 7 " 2.5 ti' 'I THE MONARCH IS THE KING j OF BIKES. a statement was published /f from one end of the land to (f \ the other that the "bicj'de trust" liad eollapsed and that TIrBnV /'/prices had dropped with a WTffPfc*]j 'I'1" thud from ?l'?n to ?<> for t xSSro/'^ftiry/ "high grade, standard" inaeliines. Subsequent inlbrinatiou proves that the report ; was not correct. If there wasa trust it still exists. | The cold facts in regard to the matter are about as I follows: There are unite a number of imtiifactu\ rers in the country who have been making frantic | efforts to cause expert wheelmen to believe that their particular makes were equal in every re| speet to any machine on the market and worth | as much money, and so sanguine were they of ! success, that they continued to manufacture large numbers of wheels and howl about enormous I sales, etc., but experts wouldn't catch on, and in order to save themselves, they .reduced their i prices to where they should have been at the ; start, as compared to the genuine high grade I wheel, and spread the report that the "trust" [hail collapsed. The price 011 machines that are recognized by experts as high grade bicycles is exactly what it was at the beginning of the season. The price of the MONARCH, the recognized kingot bicycles, has not been-reduced. There is no necessity for reduction, because it is on top. Its popularity with experts is increasing every day. < )f course there are reasons for this and we will tell them to you, and you can't help but see that they arc good ones. Here they are? Because it is the lightest running wheel on the market by at least 33 per cent. Hecause it is scientifically constructed. Because it possesses desirable features not shared by any other make. Because its patent ball holder and dust protector is used exclusively on the Monarch, j Because Monarch sprockets arc detachable and secured by patented device, t Because only the very linest material is used throughout. Because the workmanship is absolutely the best. | Because people who know Bikes buy Monarchs. The li.st could be extended but we have given enough. We would be pleased to order a Monarch for you. If you want any particular style o saddle or tire you can get what you want on a Monarch. Prices furnished on application. SAM M. (MUST, Yorkville, S. C., Agent for York and Chester counties.

IT is a well known fact that we never, under any circumstances, buy or sell inferior goods of any description in order to make sales or meet competition. We have learned by long experince that there Is a large class ot people who want nothing but the best that the market atfords when it comes to eatables, and we make it- a point to supply the demands Of this class of trade. Our motto h;is always been and still remains, "The top in quality and the bottom in prices," and we never allow ourselves to be excelled by anybody when the whole of the motto is taken into consideration. A few days ago we heard of a lady who knows what pure, first-class groceries are. saying to a neighnor who was complaining of her humility 1 to buy first class Groceries, that the trouble was that she did not buy her goods at the right place. "Why" said she "I can tell good goods when I see them being brought in the gate there." "Well, I can't," said the complaining neighbor, "and I don't see how you can. Tell me, please." "It is easy enough," said the other. "If I see KIDDLE A CARROLL'S man Coot bringing the goods in the gate I KNOW they are all right. If you want to always be sure of getting first-class groceries of any kind, you should buy from them. They never disappoint." The lady simply endorsed our claim to sell nothing but the very best, and we are sure that if there are any who have not tried us and will give us a trial, they will say that she know exactly what she was talking about. Coot is always anxious and Charley is always witling to deliver goods anywhere in town free of charge and i to deliver them promptly. RIDDLE A- CARROLL. W. K. FEIWIUSON. J. M. FKROUSON.
