ROCK HILL HAPPENINGS. " More Corn huiI Less Politics?Thinks There Is Money in Cherries?New Baptist Church to he Dedicated Soon?Closing Exercises of the High School?Hall Storm In Ehene/er?Other Matters. Correspondence of The Yorkville Enquirer. Rock Hill, May 25.?A gentleman of judgment and intelligence, who has traveled by private conveyance from the western part of Chester county to the eastern part of York county, during the last two weeks, informs me that he has never before seen such a large acreage of corn ; that he has never seen corn look liner at this season ; and that he has never, for the last four years, seen the people with so little politics in their mouths. All of which are hopeful signs. More corn, < > 1:.;? ??,i I6SS COllOD, less puiuics ouii uiuib luijjiuu ? theu we will prosper. Religious revivals and political turmoil do not prosper together, any more than cotton and corn on the same patch. Witness the fact that while the last 12 months has been a period of religious growth over the country generally, poor, cross South Carolina has had no general, visible religious growth. Mr. J. G. Steele, who has a model country home near town, and who is proprietor of the popular Steele's mineral spring, lately showed your correspondent a Hue orchard of 600 cherry trees and sprouts. Mr. Steele says he expects to plant 400 more and grow cherries for the market. Cherries are a fairly certain and abundant crop, the trees hardy and well adapted to our climate, the berries keep well and are a favorite both in the pantry and at the huckster's stand. Mr. Steele believes it will be a paying crop. It was Mr. Steele who cleared a profit at the rate of $80 per acre from a cantaloupe patch lust ? year. At V. B. McFaddeu's meat market there is a monster sausage mill, run by a two-horse power engiue and doing a constant business, which can furnish some reflection for the curious. Does it indicate tough meat, weak teeth, or a natural love for sausage among our citizens? At any rate, let it be said, it indicates some dyspepsia and a better business for the drugstores. Mr. McFadden says he has never kuowu such a large demand for ~ sausage at this season of the year. The new Baptist church will be finished this week, except the electric lighting and carpeting, and the first service is announced to be held there next Sunday morning. The church will have no Sunday evening service until the lights are put in, which will be soon. The dedicatory services are expected to take place on the third Sunda}* of June. Rev. T. M. Bailey, D. D., Rev. J. Q. Adams,! and other ministers, are expected to take part. The programme will be announced : later. The public is cordially invited to at-1 tend. Allow me to lay aside the imperson- i . ality of the correspondent long enough to ex-1 press our appreciation of the kindly iuterest j manifested by the Christian citizens of Rock i Hill in our building enterprise, and for the complimentary remarks as to the appearance of the new structure. Rock Hill likes any j good thing that shows push, and anything i that desires to push will like Rock Hill. The commencement sermon of the l'res-! byterian High school was preached in the, b. chapel Sunday morning by Rev. Alexander Sprunt. Mr. Sprunt expected another min- i ister to preach the sermon, but was disap-1 nointed. His hearers had an instructive: c and helpful sermon from their own pastor. On Wednesday night the commencement j proper of the High school will begin by dec-; ^ tarnations by the- students, in the chapel. On Thursday morning, General L. F. You-, mans will deliver the annual oration before the students, and on Friday evening there j will be a joint debate between the Euphe- i raian and Nestorian literary societies of the j High school. All exercises will be held in j the chapel. A severe hail fell in Ebenezer, skirting North Hock Hill, Sunday afternoon. It was a peculiar looking cloud with almost no; wind. A good rain fell with the hail, the | first of consequence since the .snow storm. The hail was small but plentiful. The crops of the following were right seriously dam-1 aged : Messrs. Julian and Bose Avery, J. A. Shurlev and J. A. Barron, and Mrs. Kate j Morrison. Mr. T. C. Thompson, acting contractor i for the Industrial school, has just returned j from Clemson, where he went to examine the buildings damaged by lire. Mr. Thomp- j son says the loss will not be as great as was supposed, and that some of the walls of the burned building will be reliable for renewed use. Miss Bessie Gardner, of Shelby, is visiting her sister, Mrs. T. A. Robertson, of this place. Mrs. Rutgers, of Wadcsboro, N. C., who has been at the Carolina hotel for two weeks, left yesterday for Cleveland springs, where she expects to remain as matron of the hotel. Mrs. Rutgers is a South Carolinian and was once in charge of the Jerome, and at another time of the Merchants' hotel, in Columbia. Mrs. J. G. Steele left, via Catawba Junction, for a month's visit to her son, Mr. John A. Steele, in Abbeville, where he is engaged in the G., C. & N. railroad shops. A 2-year old child of Mr. W. M. Collins | died at the Standard mills last Thursday ( night. It was buried at Catawba church 011 Friday, services being conducted by Rev. V.; I. Masters. The regular exercises of the graded school have suspended until next September. The) higher grades, however, will continue work until the regular time for vacation, which ' comes soon. Governor Tillman was in town on Tuesday ! of last week, doing committee work for the Industrial school. It is said the governor | has never missed a single meeting of the j committee, which holds its meetings in Rock Hill. A fine showing for our chief executive. v. I. M. BLACKSBIWS Bl'lKJKT. The Weather ami the Crops? l'reelnet Club Organized?l>euth of Mr. Thomas Guiltier. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Blacksburg, May 29.?The cool weather and slight frost of ten days ago, did considerable damage to cotton in retarding its? growth and killing some of it. However, j there is generally enough left, and with a few days of warmth and sunshine, it will thrive again. The other crops are looking 1 well, and wheat and oats promise to make a better yield than at one time was expected.' Our farmers are quite busy now and have | their laud in fiue cultivation, but the weather is still unseasonably cool. Pursuant to a call issued by County Chairman Brice, the Blacksburg precinct club met and reorganized on Saturday last by re-electing F. H. Dover, chairman, and Dr. J. C. McCubbins, secretary. The club was called together earlier thau was intend -wl ? ?d IVIM *1%/% ?MIuriAPA Ar KoiMnrr f Ku Ullj U1114 IliatiJJ^ iUi iu^ WI IH4?I?J5 HJV matter of registration attended to.

Professor Berghu, of Philadelphia, chemist for The Carolina Sulphuric Acid Manufacturing company, arrived here a few days ago, and is getting his laboratory in order for the work of the company, which will begin in about ten days. Mr. Thomas Gautier died at Cherokee Inn on Friday last, at 1 o'clock, in the 74th year of his age. lie came here three years ago, from Morristown, X. J., in quite feeble health, for the good of our climate, and while his declining years were made more comfortable by our warm genial sunshine, and he had all that wealth and the ministrations of loving hearts could give him, he never rallied from the disease (progressive paralysis) which was preying upon him, and which was the cause of his death. His remains, after a brief service at Cherokee Inn, by Kev. L. A. Johnson, were taken by the It. D. vestibule train, Saturday evening, for his old home for interment, accompanied by his family. He leaves a devoted wife ana one cnuu?:ur. mourns i*. truuuer? both of whom, with the hitter's family, will make Blacksburg their future home. w. a. POINTS FROM PI N EM LI K. Krho fr<?n> tli??

Bi.airsvii.lk, May 2S.?The farmers arc i now busy cultivating their crops, and for the i next few months will not eat much idle i bread. Cotton on sandy lands is a good | stand, but on red lands it is not doing so well, | Some of our farmers have found it necessary j to plant over. j Upland corn is looking well where it has j been properly worked, and bottom land corn is also doing fine. Rust has made its appearance 011 the wheat in the last ten days, and although the crop now looks pretty well, there is reason to fear that it will be seriously injured by the cool nights. The Blairsville brass band met last Saturday, adopted by-laws and elected Mr. J. H. Shcrrer as secretary. The band will be in shape for the coming campaign. Mr. R. M. Carroll, who has recently had j his dwelling remodeled, is now having the finishing touches put on by the painter. Mr. Sam Plaxico, who has been attending | school at Newton, N. C., is at home. Mr. Will Riggins, of Clemson, who has been at home a few days, returned today. Miss Sallie Hood, who has been quite sick, is thought to be improving. Burglars stole a large quantity of meat from Mr. S. E. Carroll one night last week. The Bullock's Creek choir will meet at the church next Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock, for the purpose of practicing. w. s. p. CLEMSON WILL BE REBUILT. Work of the College is doing on Without Interruption. The origin of the lire which destroyed the main building of Clemson college is still a mystery. So far two theories have been advanced. One lays the blame 011 rats and the other on a thief. The fire broke out in the third ctnrv in which WllS stored much combustible material, including South Carolina's agricultural exhibit. A part of the lloor was also used for class rooms. Among the other articles on the floor was a lot of brandy peaches. It is known that from time to time previous to the fire, a number of bottles of the peaches had been stolen. It is supposed that the thief came back for more, and carelessly threw down the match that he used for the purpose of making a light. The other theory has it that matches were probably ignited by rats. Ali of the material points in connection with the fire were given last week. The chapel and dormitories were saved, largely through the efforts of the cadets, who organized a bucket brigade and worked like beavers. Among the losses sustained by the fire, was the splendid library of the college, several thousand copies of the book "South Carolina," published by Commissioner of Agriculture Butler, a large number of maps of the State, other valuable papers, the chemical laboratory and the State agricultural exhibit. There were no accidents of any consequence to the cadets. The most serious was a sprained ankle of Cadet J. E. Brogden. The board of ti^istees met at the college last Friday and decided to commence the work of rebuilding at once. The $20,000 of insurance money will be used until the legislature convenes, and there is reason to believe that all that may be needed will be appropriated without much hesitation. Since the fire, recitation rooms have been improvised at the homes of the various professors and at other available places, and the work of the college has been going on with-' out much interruption. The statement in The Enquirer's dispatch last week that Governor Tillman and Secretary of State Tindal were at Clemson at the time of the fire, was a mistake occasioned by faulty punctuation of the message at the telegraph office. Governor Tillman was in Bock Hill. HOW THE Jl'KY STOOD. Editor of The Enquirer: It is with some regret that I deem it my duty to bring up that case of Wilson & Wilson & McDow vs. York township again. It is not that I think that anybody needs vindicating, but in order that there may be no possible misunderstanding on the part of the public. I was especially referred to in Mr. Allison's last card, and as no one else has seen fit to make this statement, 1 think I can do so without any especial impropriety. Soon after we came out of the jury room, I and other jurors heard a story that we stood eleven to one in favor of the plaintiff. So far as I was concerned, the report was not especially annoying: hut when it dawned on some of us that the story might have been started for the purpose of influencing the jury at the next trial, we deemed it our duty to the public that a correct statement of our position be published. Accordingly, at our instance and request, Thk Enquirer stated that, on the last ballot, the jury stood eight to four in favor of the defendant, and by name told how each juror voted. The next week, Mr. Allison, in a card, quoted the full statement that had been published, and over his own signature said : "As my name is mentioned, I ask leave to state that your informant is certainly 111 error, as eleven of the jury were in favor of finding a verdict for tlie plaintiffs, though in different amounts." Knowing as we did that the first statement in the paper was absolutely correct, I and the other jurors, over, our own signatures, reiterated it in full, and told how ?lw> 111 ! ** Qtcirwl <111 thi? other ballots that J"*J ? - - - ? were taken also. The question at issue, as I understand it, has not been one of honesty of purpose in finding the verdict. It was only whether on the last ballot the jury stood eleven to to one in favor of the plaintiff, or eight to four for the defendant. 1). l\ Cl.AltK. Yorkville, S. C\, May 20, 1SU4.

Hunt & Adams hope that in a year or two, as our own farmers lind that wheat can he marketed for cash, it will he no longer necessary to buy it from abroad. A Wise rrecuiition. ? The State : Since the burning of Clcmson college and several other large institutions elsewhere, the authorities of the State lunatic asylum have been looking very carefully into the matter of lire protection for that institution. The authorities say that every lloor is lit ted up with hose and nozzles, but that there has been no training of the watchers as to the extinguishing of incipient lires. Henceforward it is proposed to put the entire force of watchers through a special drli every day. luiiiiM'tl lii u Well. ?

The Columbia Register has learned that Senator Sinythe lias sent in his resignation II to Lieutenant Governor Timmennan, and i that lie proposes to lie a candidate for eon-' gross in the First district.

The package i reached Chester and Roof paid the $25, and | upon opening it to behold his jewelry, he j found nothing but paper. He then had an i. attachment brought for the amount and the . money is held in Chester. Mr. Sims, the ! express agent here, got an order from II. 11. Maull for the money a few days since, but l of course it could not be delivered. The or; der was brought by Leonard Overeash, the same party who shipped the package. Chief ' of Police Boger received a letter from a lawj ycr in Chester stating the facts, and telling I him to arrest the party who called for the money. Overeash was asked about the j matter and he claims that a peddler got him i to ship the package and also to call for the money. Now the question is, who is H. 11. Maull, and "where is he at?"

WILL CURE! : NOW, we last week told you plainly, that if you had dysentery or bowel' ! complaint of anykind, DIG DIS would j cure you for 25 cents. This medicine is put up in small boxes, containing ten powders and a small vial, with full directions 011 the box. It is not unpleasant to the taste and will relieve and cure in 24 hours, as has been the case of about twenty others since the appearance of our advertisement in last week's Enquirer calling the attention of the public to our remedy. Since then we are prepared to furnish testimonials from those who have been cured. Remember that DIO DIS is the cure for ALL bowel troubles. Hat or drink anything you want. It is perfectly harmless. Contains 110 poison ; 110 dangerous ingredients. Now come and get a box for family use, and when the children come in crying with pains in their little stomachs, just give them half of a powder and you will hear no more from them. Health I is everything. So says the man of! money. DIO DIS says I will cure I ! dysentery and bowel troubles. Try it.1 MRS.

These jchildrcn had been i troubled with Scrofula for some time, being naturally very delicate. They are now well. l| regard your Remedy as a panacea for this fearful disease. I am, yours sincerely, \V. S. BLACK, I). I). Superintendent Oxford Orphan Asylum. During the later months of hist year, I was troubled with a breaking out on my leg. It came at first in the form of a very large running sore. After about a month it commenced to spread and con- ( tinned 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 us well as my family physi- | cian, 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. I bought some of the remedy and wash, and it began to improve at once, and very soon a cure was perfected. John W. Johnson, Stony Creek, Caswell county, N. C. February 7, 1894. !

A GROCER WITH "SAND" WILL not put it iu his sugar, but rather into business principles. Pure sugar is a good thing to be able to sell, but much of it is adulterated in these latter days. The watchful grocer is careful what he buys?then he knows what he is selling. This is the only way in which a reputation can be built up. As in Sugar, so with Tea, Coffbe, Flour, butter?everything we keep for public consumption. We BUY THE BEST, therefore SELL THE BEST, and are satisfied with a reasonably small profit.
