LETTER FROM BETHEL.
Rain in the Sunshine?Let us Have Peas?Mr. Sain
Glenn's Estimate of the Crops?Money in a
Good Pasture?A Guinea With an Ear for
Music.
Correspondence of The Yorkville Enquirer.
Post Oak, September 10.?It is an old saying
"that the devil is whipping his wife," if it rains
while the sun is shining. If this be true, his
satanie majesty certainly gave the old dame a
devil of a lieating on last Friday evening. I
don't think I ever saw a harder rain fall while the
sun was unobscured by clouds. The sight was
not only unusual, but it was a strangely beautiful
one. The retlection of the sun upon the
falling rain caused a magnificent bow to arch the
sky and casts its magnificent rainbow hues, as it
were in our very faces, giving the beautiful tints
to every object that one sees when he looks
through a prismatic glass. Maybe it was the
old lady's Sundav clothes that the old devil was
pulling off, inortfer the more thoroughly to castigate
the vixen, that presented so many and
variegated colors. Whatever it was that caused
it, the sight was a grand one and a joy to any
lover of the beautiful.
The rain did some damage in staining the open'
cotton and injuring some fodder that had been
left out, but the benefit done, the late corn and
cotton, will more than overbalance the damage.
Fodder pulling on all early corn is about
through with. Thore is a good deal of young
corn on which the fodder is not yet ready. Molasses
making and cotton picking are now the
order of the day. Mr. H. E. Johnson, who has
a molasses mill, says that cane is turning out
very fine. There will be a Quantity of molasses
made in this neighborhood, as almost every
farmer has a cane patch. Mr. Ormand expects
to make four or five hundred gallons. Cotton is
opening fast, and everyone that is big enough to
carry a poke is out picking it.
I never before saw as many pease planted.
Fmm T)r_ Withersnoon's to Beaverdam, I saw
enough peas, it seems to me, to feed York county
for a year. It reminded me of the year after
General Grant used his historic expression, "Let
us have peace." At that time, Cuffee was a little
fresh in the way of education, and they, or all of
themwhocould read atall, read the statement,
"Let us have peas," and they thought so much
of Mass Grant that they didn't want to plant
anything else. The crop is a good one. The pea
itself is nutritious food for man and beast. The
vine makes fnje feed as roughness, and the roots
fertilize the sou. So I say, "Let us have peas."
Watermelons and cantaloupes have about
played out, but there are still plenty of roasting
ears and cornfield beans, and likely to be until
frost. Turnips are growing, and from the looks
of the tops in many of the patches, they will
soon be large enough for use. The old time
pumpkin is still cultivated here, and from the
number of vines we have seen, some of our
neighbors are going to be able this winter to
sing:
"ingin puddin and punkin pie,
The black cat scratched out the gray cat's eye."
Mr. Sam Glenn, who farms as well as merchandises,
says that the crop in Bethel is alxwe
an average. Where cotton lost or red land, it
more than gained it back or sandy land. The
corn crops are better, especially on low lands.
He says give him a dry May for a good crop.
"Uncle John," he says, "kept grumbling about
the dry weather and saying that we were going
to have 'another year like '45,' and when I differed
with him, it miffed him so that he said he
wished it would rain a good rain on his crop
" and not a drop on mine. Now Uncle John acknowledges
tnaUhe has as good a crop as ho ever
had." Uncle John, as he is familiarly called by
his relatives and intimate friends, is Mr. John
Glenn. He has been quite sick, but we are informed
is some better. Mr. Sam Glenn says
that trade is better at his store than it has been,
at this season, for some years.
I visited Mr. F. E. Clinton's pasture on Beaver
Dam, a few days ago. He has 100 acres fenced
in, and he has pastured on an average of al>out
00 head of cattle there this year. Those that he
has in there now are in a good condition and getting
fat. Mr. Clinton thinks the pasture pays
much better than farming the land. I expect to
give a full description of this pasture in some
future letter.
Mr.* James Gordon isRhucking his year-beforelast
corn, in order to make room for his present
crop.
Mr. G. R. Turner is making brick preparatory
to building a house.
Mr. L. K. Armstrongs able to be about again.
Rev. Mr. McAllister's children have been having
chills.
The people along the route are much pleased
that Mr. J. M. Robinson is carrying the mail
again. We will now get our letters and papers
regularly.
Mr. Sam Johnson has a guinea that lias a passion
for music, and exercises it by rattling an
old piece of chain lying in the yard. The guinea
comes several times each day, and having
pieked up the chain and rattled it, lays it down
again ana goes off. I have observed him do it
repeatedly since my attention was called to it by
Mr. Johnson. Mr. H. Johnson says he first noticed
the guinea several times about a year ago.
He left the chain there and watched it several
days. Mr. guinea came two or three times each
day and, having rattled the chain walked oft".
The children and all of the neighbors know the
guinea fowl's chain, and no one disturbs it. No
one can tell why he does this, but it is a curious
fact.
"Is a Lie ever Justifiable" is the subject to be
debated at Post Oak academy on Friday night
week, at 8 o'clock.
Children's Day will be celebrated at Union
church on the first Sunday in October. x
LETTER FROM HICKORY UROVE.
Killed In the River?A Burglar Caught in the Act?
Personal Mention.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
Hickory Grovk, September 10.?Levi l*cr?uson,
colored, met with a fatal accident in
(road river last Friday. He was a member of a
gang engaged in rafting timber from the Darwin
place down to Lock hart shoals. On the
way, the boys began to divert themselves by
turning somersaults in the water. Ferguson
tried it in a place that was rather too shallow,
and striking the bottom, sustained concussion of
the spine. He died within 24 hours.
Hart Westmoreland was sent to Yorkville
last Saturday on the charge of burglary and
larceny. For some time past Westmoreland
had been sleeping in a room adjacent to Mr.
XfoTYilUo c^Arn fnr thu numnuo nf nrntpf'tilic t)lP
goods. On Friday night, while returning with a
party of young people from a Negro meeting,
Air. T. P. MoLKli, noticed a light in the store.
After ascertaining that the light was evidently
being used by somebody who bud had no business
in the store, Mr. McDill collected a party
and proceeded to investigate. Westmoreland
was caught in the act. He had stolen about
fifty dollars worth of goods and Hidden tlicin a
a snort distance from the store. The fact that he
had been trying to buy a large trunk 011 the day
before, lent color to the suspicion that lie was
about ready to depart for regions unknown.

DOTS FROM THE DARK CORNER.
Accidentally Killed-l'er-onul Mention?Crops Not
So Good un Tliey Were.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
Cotton, September 8.?John Scaife, a 17year-old
Negro, was accidentally killed just
across the line in Chester county last Monday
evening. In company with Mr. L. L.
McLemore, John went to the pasture after
some cows and carried his gun. After the
cows had been let out of the pasture, he put
up the bars and started to take his gun from
the other side. The gun was accidentally
discharged and the load took effect in his
left lung. He died within a few minutes.
The verdict of the coroner's jury was in accordance
with the facds as staled

is teaching at Cabal, and on Monday, Miss
Jerusha Mitchell will open a school at Sandy
Level.
Mrs. Jane Brannon came near losing her
dwelling house by (ire a few days ago. The
fire started in the backshed, and when discovered,
was making its way to the roof.
There had been a heavy rain a short while
before, however, and the family was able to
overcome the fire without great difficulty.
A few weeks ago, it looked as if we were
going to make cotton like they sometimes
make it in Texas; but now the outlook is
not so bright. There was too much rain
during July and August, and the result will
not lie much over a half crop. Corn is good.

Dryest Year Since *45?Successful Entertainment?
Death of Captain Perry.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
Blacksburc, September 11.?One ol
our intelligent and observing farmers said to
me yesterday, that he does not remember a
summer since 1S45 that has been so dry, in
certain localities, as this: yet, although the
cm-th has not had a thoroinrh wettin? since
the snow, the ruin thut fell did a wonderful
amount of pood, and there will be good crops
of every kind made. The past week has
been very favorable for saving fodder and
hay, and cotton is opening fast.
An entertainment for the benefit of the
graded school library was given at the
school building on Friday evening last, by
some of our young people. It consisted oi
some excellent music?both vocal and instrumental?and
the drama, "My Awful
Dad,'' played in three acts. The characters
were well taken and well sustained, and the
actors and promoters of the entertainment
deserve a great deal of credit, not only fot
their good acting, hut for their zeal in so
1'iind a muse. About ?o0 was realized, and
will serve as a neueleus for further efforts in
that direction.

| Correspondence of the Yorkvllle Enquirer,
j Rock Hill, September 10.?Our people
: huve ceased to talk politics, and a general
quickening of activity in business circles
seems to be possessing our wide-awake little
city. Cotton is beginning to come in quite
freely, though many, no doubt, are holding
in hopes of getting better prices further ou.
One of the saddest accidents we've ever
been called upon to relate, occurred here
last Thursday morning. Sidney, the sixyear-old
son of Mr. R. E. Tompkins, was
scalded, from his waist down, by the accidental
overturning of a coffe-pot at the
breakfast table. Everything was done that
the tenderest care and the best medical
skill could suggest to alleviate the pain of
the little sufferer; but nought else could be
done, aud death came on the afternoon of
the following day.
The High School opeued on last Wednesday
under favorable auspices. The attendance
on that day was larger by at least
half a dozen, than on the opening day of
any previous year in the history of the
school. New pupils have been coming in
ever since, and the authorities are greatly
pleased with the outlook for a very prosperous
year.
Already are settlers of the most desirable
character being attracted to Rock Hill by
the line educational advantages?soon to be
so greatly increased?that can he lia<! here.
During last week, two prominent citizens of
Marion and Laurens counties respectively
purchased considerable tracts of land in the

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases pnt together, and
until the last few years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many doctors pronounce
it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proved catarrh to be a constitutional disease,
and therefore requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. .1.
Cheney A Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken internally
in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful.
It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any ease it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials. Address,

To Kill Worms and Weevil in Wheat.
We have a preparation to kill worms and
weevil in wheat or corn. It is said to do it
most effectually. Docs not injure or affect the

Texas to save corn, and in the Northwest to save
wheat. Having a demand for it here, we ordered
it and offer it for sale for the purpose
above mentioned.
Give it a Black Eye.
Don't buy 15 cents kerosene oil. It is good

$27.50 WILL DO IT. i
FOR several weeks past we have been telling [|
the readers of The Enquirer about a
handsome set of Furniture that we are offering -r
at the low price of ?27.50, and all who have exam- E
inert it endorse our claim that it is the greatest
bargain ever offered in this section. No man
can afford to buy until ours has been examined,
and we have little fears of people not buying our j
goods, if they will examine our stock and compare
prices. Of course we have furniture for j AJ
less than ?27.00 a set and for a great deal more, i 1
and can suit everybody, rich and poor.
WE ARE ON TOP
When it comes to Heating and Cooking Stoves.
We can knock competition endwise. We buy in ;
car load lots and get all the advantage that can I
be secured, and for this reason arc able to hold !
down our end. We handle some as good cook- )
ers as are made, and also some very low price j -?
ones. Jt
WE ARE IN BUSINESS ?

we meet competition we are left, and for this rea- la
son we keep our eyes on the track and our hand ai
on the throttle all the time. M

A SUBSTITUTE FOR HONEY.
WE have recently added quite a variety of
desirable fresh goods to our stock. It is
not our purpose at this time to tell about all of
them, but will leave some over for another time.
The tirst thing we will mention this week is a
barrel of MAPLE SYRUP. Several weeks
ago we bought a keg of this most delightful article,
and it went in a very fewduys ana the purchasers
called for more. This caused us to know
that it was good, and we, therefore, ordered a barrel,
and it's come. It's a good substitute for honey.
You had better get yourself some. The
price is 80 cents a gallon.
25 FOR 75 CENTS.
Seventy-live cents will buy 25 "fresh" Mackerel
at our siore. They have just arrived. They
are good and they are cheap. They are packed
in kits, containing the number specified above,
and at the price named.
BREAKFAST STRIPS.
Several weeks ago the price of the best quality
of Breakfast strips?Kingan's?was ltij| cents per
pound. We have a fresh lot in stock and they
are worth 12$ cents per pound.
BASKETS FOR EVERYBODY.
We have added to our stock a large lot of Baskets
of various sizes, with and without covers,
and at prices that should make them go out
without delay. If you need anything of this
kind, see us.
GOLD DUST AND PEARLINE.

WHERE TO
FIND ME.
IIIAVK leased the show room of the Wheeler
Buggy factory building, and expect to remove
my stock of Cnrbin Disk Harrows, Evans Steel
Frame Lever and Western Tripple Harrows,
Oliver's Chilled Plows, Buckeye Mowers and
Horse Rakes to it during the present week, and
will be prepared to show them in a manner satisfactory
to my friends and customers and to
myself, which lias not been the case heretofore.
I hope to see every fanner who needs anything
in my line at my new quarters. I will always
he found there, during business hours, when in
Yorkville.
BUCKEYE MOWERS
Are without a rival as grass cutters. They are
the simplest in construction, the strongest, the
most durable and the LIGHTEST RUNNING.
They won't choke. Some manufacturers and
their agents claim that the machines they makeor
sell are equal or better than the Buckeye; but in
all contests during the past forty years, all wouldbe
competitors have been vanquished, and the
1894 New Buckeye is out of sight ahead of any
other.
OLIVER'S CHILLED PLOW.
I am sole agent for York county for the sale of
the genuine Oliver Chilled Plow, and this means
that no other dealer has or can get the genuine
article. The market is Hooded with imitation or
bogus plows branded and represented as genuine
Olivers, and several dealers in the county
are handling them. Any farmer who buys one
of them will be disappointed. The bogus article
looks like the genuine, but it is not made of the
SAME KIND OF MATERIAL. A genuine
Oliver Chilled Plow will last from fifteen to
twenty years, and the imitation from three to
live, it it don't break. The Oliver Plow is imitated
because the imitators recognize the fact
that it is the best. An inferior article is never
counterfeited. Oliver plows will be delivered at
any railroad station in the county at the same
price charged for them in Yorkville, or anywhere
else. They sell at list price.
Call and see about a Corn Nheller or Feed
Cutter. Can furnish anykind wanted.
I sell the genuine Daniel Pratt Cotton llin.

YOU BET YOU!
Our Stock of Fall Millinery Will
Take the Discarded Linen off
of the Infantile Tree.
MISS JULIA MAY WEBB,
Now in the American Metropolis
Selecting It.
DO YOU WANT A SPECIAL ORDER ?
J^AST THURSDAY, Miss JULIA MAY
WEBB lell Yorkville for her home in New
York to attend the "Millinery Openings," and
the grand displays of fancy articles and styles
' " * " n
oi me present ran season 01 nuitu ?u?
be on exhibition in that city, AUCIUST27TH,
28TH, and 29TH. Miss Webb will remain in
that city until the 15TH, or possibly the 20TH
OF SEPTEMBER, during which time she will
devote her talents and taste to selecting a stock
of millinery, which, without hesitation, she
promises will far excel our spring and summer
goods, both in symmetrical beauty and variety.
v No patron of LATIMER'S FASHION BAZARR?not
even those who may have by accident
wandered into onr stores?ever intimated
or insinuated a lack of confidence in Miss
Webb's taste and ability as a fine artiste and
exquisite trimmer. Miss Webb's wonderful
i
discretionary powers, which are always displayed
with delightful results, where the three elements
of PRICE, QUALITY and STYLE are
in conflict with the patron's wallet, as to apparently
eliminate only the element of price,
without altering the eongruity of the article
wanted. This is tact and ingenuity which is
calculated to please all classes of customers.
That's not all. It's a qualification that every
one don't possess.
Apropos, the management of LATIMER'S
FASHION BAZARR, in connection with what
has been said above, will suv to the hundreds
of ladies who know Miss Webb personally, and
to all of those who may know her by reputation,
and who might desire to make a "Special
Order," of say a BRIDAL OUTFIT, or for any
thing else so far as that is concerned, and will
make their wants known to the proprietor of
THE BAZARR, the order will go forward
without delay, and it will receive Miss Webb's
undivided attention, without unnecessary delay,
and in the future as in the past, you may
rest assured of her ability to please.
Remember that this stock of Millinery, which
is now being purchased, will be second to none
ever ottered for sale over our counters.
If you want a nice Trunk, come and see us.
We can fix you right for the cash.
Gentlemen, if any of you want a nice Felt
Hat, |I will sell it to you right for the cash. On
credit, it will require some talk.
