"I know all about that gun spoken of i; The Enquirer last week as having bee: found in the old gas tank below the jail, said Mr. Henry Keller, last Saturday. "Jus as soon as I read about it, I knew it was th very same gun, and there is nobody else tha could tell you about it but uic," he con tinned. Here was the prospect for a good story and the reporter was all ears as he listenei for further developments. Mr. Keller pro ceedod: "Do you remember when the soldiers wcr here during kuklux times? Well, on ninvnimr in lillv ihnilt djivliabt. I SHW tWl b W"VJ ??/ *"c? ? 7 ? men coming up to my house. Who the; were, at first I couldn't tell; hut when the; got closer I saw they were Yankee soldier.' and one of them I recognized as an acquaint ance named Shelleberger. Both of then were Germans, and the first thing they toh me was that they had deserted, and wantei me to hide them until dark. I told them t hide in the woods and I would not tell 01 them for anything. Then Shelleberger toh me something like this : ' We have both been under guard in tlr jail. They had shackles on our feet, and soldier kept watch over us with a doubl barrel shot-gun. Last night I jerked tli gun out of the hands of the guard, and toh him that if he did not take our shackles of] I would kill him. He took the shackles ol as fast as he could. Then we told him no to open his mouth, and marched him dowi the hill below the jail. This was sutticien to give us a good start, and we told the fel low he could go back. Then wc threw th gun in the gas tank. "Shelleberger advised me," continued, Mi Keller, "to go there and get the gun, an several times I had a notion to do it, bu finally I gave it out; and if it had not bee for what was printed in The Enquirer reckon I would have forgot all about it."

Blacksruro, May 1.?Spring has come s last with gentle genial May, and weare enjoyin strawberries and the early vegetables. On Sui day our hearts were gladened and vegetation ri vived and greatly benefitted, by a good rain. Yesterday was a sad day to our citizens, Ik cause of thclmrial in a few hours of each otliei of two of our most highly esteemed citizens, a occurrence which has never had a precedent i our town. The tirst was Mrs. Swann, who wa laid to rest at 12 o'clock and the other that of Mi M. L. Ross, over whose body the last sad rite were spoken about 4 o'clock" in the alternooi Each interment was attended by a large con course of people, who thus manifested tliehig regard with which both of the deceased wcr held. Mrs. Isabella Swann was born in Renningtoi Vt., on the 14 day of January, lts'JO, and died i Rlacksburg, Saturday, the 28th of April, I sillier maiden name was Holmes, and she spot most of her married life which wasbriel, in Ne1 York State. Early left a widow with one chile she exhibited, in the position in which she wsi placed,those sterlingqualitiesofcharacter, whic characterize a true woman. She came to th place live years ago with her son-in-law, Mr.. S. Phelps, an engineer on the Three C's rail mat She soon ceased to be a stranger in our midst, in by her bright, cheerful manner, her retinemen intelligence and energy and her kindly deed: she won the respect and love of all with wlioi she came in contact, and departed leaving man true friends to mourn her loss. She was a d< voted member of the Episcopal church, and w: buried with its solemn and impressive service b her rector, Rev. J. II. Mct'ollough. Marcus Lafayette Ross was born a few tnih from here, at the old family homestead, oi Broad river, in Spartanburg county, March .'Ml 1825. He has always lived near the place of hi birth and among the people who knew him lies About forty years ago, he married Miss Elizsi beth Wood, the daughter of a prominent citize and farmer of York county. About the close < the war he purchased a valuable farm on Bultii lo creek, where he lived until lk'JO, when he pui chased property in our town, and built aeon fortable dwelling, in which he resided until h death, which occurred on Sunday inorniu< April 2tHh, 18U4. Mr. Ross was a man of much physical for* and great strength of character, ami, therefon wielded a notable influence in his immedial community. Honest and just in all his dca ings, with "kindly feelings toward all in troubl and distress, lie was noted for his upright cliai actor, his sympathetic ministrations to the sir ami alliictecl, and especially for the tender lov and care for those of his own household lie was buried from the Baptist church, < which he had long been a member. The funcn sermon was preached by Rev. T. M. Webb, < Shelby, N. (.'., and Rev. L. A. Johnson adde il.! some very appropriate remarks upon the life an I character of the deceased.

The big hosiery mill within the wall " of the South Carolina penitentiary, was de rt stroyed by lire last Wednesday evening The convicts had quit work for the day am left the building. About an hour late smoke was seen issuing from the roof. Th 1- penitentiary guards and a few trusty con k' victs did what tiicy could to put out th 'iT lire, but already the Haines had gotten be yond control. The destruction of the ink 'entails a loss of about ?."?0,000, of whicl about was covered by insurance ,C The building was owned by the State and th d i machinery by Mr. John (iraham, of Coluni <11 bia, and a company of Northern capitalists. ?: The $0,000 of insurance was on the tnaehinery. There was no insurance on the building for the reason that no company' 11 j will take risks on prison buildings. The ? i fire is supposed to have been started by a young white convict named Harry Short. ie I who is in for life for rape, committed in ! Spartanburg county. Short was the last l_ I man to leave the building, and as he remainil | ed inside longer than was necessary, suspicion <- j attaches to him.

The mill, though less than ; half completed, is ready for work. It is five y j stories high, and one-fifteenth of a mile long, j and will he devoted to the manufacture of cotton duck. In addition to its being the | forerunner of numerous enterprises for Columbia, and hearing the distinction of being a larger than the famous King-Philip mill, of Lowell, Mass., there is a feature about it that will revolutionize mill construction. ? This is the application of electricity to cotton ^ manufacturing, the power being developed l?y power from the canal, and transmitted . over wires to fifteen electric dynamos in the ' mill. The mill has, in all, IS,000 spindles, * which are equal to 100,000 spindles of or1 j dinar}- construction, j | HI* Krraiul was Not l'oliticul. 0j ?News and Courier, Saturday : (Jovern| or Tillman was in a jolly humor this morning during his interview with the newspaper men. He talked a little about his trip to Birmingham, and remarked that he did if not care to take any notice of the lies that had been circulated about him, as lie certainly had no excuse to make. lie emphatically states that he did not go to Birmingham on a political mission, and that he did not talk > politics while out there. As to his meeting ' Candidate Kolb, he said that as Kolb had met him at the depot and had been polite to J him, that it was only one of the decencies " of man to man that he should call on him, i- and that he did not talk politics. He did hear people talk about Coxey's army, and I about his dismissal of the troops, hut othcr' wise he did not have the time to talk silver , or anything else. ! No I'roKccutioiiH Will I to Allowed. ? On the 2.1th ultimo, the city council of Florence passed an ordinance providing lor the sale of liquor. Next day W. 15. Rollins, "-J having complied with the ordinance, com| menced retailing. On the following day Mr. John N. llenckle swore out a warrant e against Rollins, charging him with violating '* I the dispensary law of 1893, and gave the 0 names of a number of witnesses to prove n the charge. Rollins was arrested by the sheriff and kept in custody. Mr. C. S. Xet? ties, as attorney for Rollins, at once left for a Columbia for the purpose of applying to the supreme court for a writ of habeas corpus J1 for Rollins. In the meantime, Trial Justice Loyd, who issued the warrant, informed Attomey General Buchanan of the state of e affairs. Attorney General Buchanan immediately instructed Trial Justice Loyd to e release Rollins, and the effort to get the case s to the supreme court was thus killed, c ? ? The treasury officials, while disclaiming any fears of trouble on account of the presence s of the crowds incident to the coming of the Coxey army, have taken the precaution of e adding fifty-five carbines and twenty rcvol, vers to the treasury's supply of arms. The normal strength of the watch force of the treasury is seventy-five, divided into two reliefs, and in addition to two or three dozen revolvers there have always been thirty-five f carbines in the racks in the office of the capf tain of the watch, sufficient to supply one to each watchman on duty. It has been I thought best, however, to increase the sup3 ply in view of the crowd of hangers-on with j Coxey. The "Treasury Guard," a local i. military organization composed entirely of - clerks in the treasury department, has in formed the captain of the watch force that in j case of trouble at any hour of the day or i, night, he could have every man in his com' maud at the treasury building inside of fortyt five minutes, lie stated that his men were . well drilled in the use of arms, and hence - could do much more effective work than * civilians. He asked to be notified if there t was at any time any apprehension of trouble. LIST OF rXCLAIMKI) LETTERS. The following is a list of tiie letters remaining in the postollice at Yorkville, S.

There j was no insurance. It would have as readily j burned had it been insured. It was not the j fault of our water supply or the ellieicney of t our lire companies. It was not discovered in > time. The St. Charles hotel in New Orleans, |] eaug.it lire night before last. The water sup- j j ply and lire department of the city is sup-1 > posed to be ADEQUATE and ellieient, but ] today that famous hotel, which was worth over j ?300,(KM), is in ashes, and the insurance companies j of America are minus about $210,000. The PENNSYLVANIA and DELAWARE insurance companies each had a $.">,000 policy, and they will be paid as eheorfully as the premium was received. We represent them both, and where there is no question of moral hazzard in- f volvcd we will appreciate any business, you may < see li: to give us. S. M. A L. (1E0. (JRIST.

Alter about a month it commenced to spread and continued until one-half of my leg, from the knee down, was almost a solid sore. It gave me much trouble. At times I was unable to walk. I tried various remedies recommended by friends its well as my family physician, but it continued to spread and grow worse. One day I was talking with a friend about having it amputated, and she persuaded me to try Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy.

WHILE the past ton days could not bo truthfully called ideal "straw hat weather," still we are sure that before this tcrrestial ball has made a groat many more revolutions?we can't say positively how many?the lovely spring time will be upon us in all its glory. In anticipation of its coming we ordered a full line of Straw llats several weeks ago. They have been received, and you just ought to see them. Wo are confident that no other dealer in the county has or will have a stock to compare with ours in style, variety or price. We invito our friends to gaze on these hats, and we would suggest that those who expect to invest would do well to do their gazing without delay, because if they defer the matter too long, "some other fellow may get the very one you wanted." Remember, these goods are neither old style or shop worn. ABOUT SHOES. Purchasers of shoes arc perhaps deceived oftener than buyers of any other kind of goods. This is not strange, and the reason is not far to seek. It is simply because it is almost impossible to tell what kind of material a shoe is made out of by simply looking at it, and it is often the ease that footgear that has every appearance outwardly of being everything it is represented to be, has soles made of scraps of leather with a paper insole and inferior uppers. Of course such a shoe is not cheap at any price. The picture is not an imaginary one. Now we don't claim to handle the only honest goods sold in this market, but we do assert most emphatically that Ol'RS ARE HONEST; and further, that they are backed by a fair and square, commonsense guarantee. We have recently received a new stock of line Shoes for ladies and gentlemen and invitq those who want full value for their money to call and examine our Shoes. KENNEDY I1ROS. A RARRON.
