LKTTKR FROM IN ION COUNTY.
Dainage by the Storm?SIcknenH?Other Notes of
More or Less Interest.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
Etta Jane, September 28.?Several of the
York county people came over to the North j
Pacolet Interdenominational Sunday-school
convention at EI Bethel last Sabbath.
The storm for the last three days has done I
a great deal of harm to cotton, hay and peas I
in the field. Corn and sugar cane were j
blown down and considerably tangled; but
not otherwise hurt. Farmers along the j
streams began to get very restless lest a
freshet would come.
There has been a great deal of sickness in
this community this full so far, and but little !
ap|?earance of its abating.
The water in Broad and Pacolet rivers has
been very low until the late rain.
Work on the Lock hart Shoals factory is
progressing very well just now. The factory
site being so far from the railroad, makes it
ilitfietih. to <ret the htiildimr material and I
machinery on the ground.
Rev. R. 1'. Smith, of Gastonin, N. t\, and ;
his family, have just returned to their home
after an extended visit to friends and relatives
in different parts of this State. They
express themselvesias highly pleased with
their visit. Mr. Stuith is a strong friend of
The Enquirer. No seenlur paper enters
his sactum that is more welcome than it is.
Mrs. Smith has for a long time heen in delicate
heulth, but it is improving.
The sacramental meeting will he held at
Salem on the first Sabbath in October.
Preaching will begin ou Saturday before at
11 o'clock a. m. Rev. T. H. Law, D. I).,
will assist the pastor, Rev. C\ E. Robertson, ,
in the services.
Mr. A. Frank Kendriek, of Sunnyside,
will remove to Roek Hill with his family
this fall. He goes to that flourishing town (
to avail his children of the splendid educa- (
tional advantages.
Being a York county man by education
and adoption, your correspondent can't help
but shout "Bully for Old York." She has
the leading college for girls in the South, if
not in the nation. (
The sugar cane crop is turning out very
well and a sufficiency for next year's use
will doubtless be made.
Our people still patronize the Hickory
Grove Roller mills with satisfactory results.
They get a fine grade of flour and a good
"turn out" at that.
Most of our farmers will have their killing
hogs for this season.
The trial of the mill dam case between ,
A. A. Surratt, plaintiff, and I)r. J. E. Gar- (
ner, defendant, will come up at this term of
the court. Quite a number of witnessess !
have been summoned on each side. This
suit is brought to compel defendant to take j
down his dam on Pacolet river, which plain- (
tiff alleges has been raised above its original ;
height and is doing plaintiff an injury.

ROCK HILL HAPPENINGS.
Damage by the Storm*?Real Estate in Oakland?
Telephone Exchange.
Correspondence of the.Yojkvllle Enquirer.
Rock Hill, Octti^er 1.?Rock Hill thinks
she had her full share of storms last week,
though we are glad to say there is no special
damage to chronicle. A good many farmers
were caught with hay cut and down in the
* fields, and it is not probable that much use
can he made of it after being out in such
weather as the latter part of last week afforded.
In spite of the gloomy weather, some visitors
to Rock Hill last week were so impressed
with the advantages offered by our residence
suburb?Oakland?that the Town Site
company disposed of some very valuable
property at prices that were?well, high f
enough to make anyone so foolish as to think ^
that the "bottom had fallen out" of the boom N
of real estate over here, open his eyes a little, j
One of the parties who purchased property
here, Mrs. S. M. Dickson, of Florence county, c
will have a handsome residence erected at n
once on College avenue, near the grounds of j
the Presbyterian High school.
A remarkable specimen of the okra plant
was exhibited on our streets one day last
week, being a stalk 10 feet high. This was
grown by one of our citizens, and is said to
be a fair sample of a number of stalks equal'
!y tall.
Mr. Thos. F. McDow, of the Yorkville bar,
was on the streets of our city one day last '
week. His many friends here are always ,
glad to see him in Rock Hill. J
Mr. A. A. Barron, who recently lost his ?

rapidly with the construction of another!
house, which, in some respects, will he a considerable
improvement on the one destroyed. I
Mr. W. H. Stewart, whose large and elegant
house was put into the inducement , I
otrered by Kock Hill for locating the Normal e
and Industrial college on its present very de- J I
sirable site, is having lumber hauled for the j
erection of another large house on his lot ? I
one of the most desirable in Oakland?at
the corner of Lancaster and Oakland avenues.
Mr. Stewart will occupy his former
home until it is needed by the authorities of J
the Normal college, when lie will move inloj
the new house on which work is to be begun :
this month.
Miss Mamie Ivy gave a gerinan at Oakland
Park pavilion last Tuesday night, compli- j
mentary to her guest, Miss Irene Withers, of;
Savannah, Oa. In spite of the very dis-1
agreeable weather, 10 or 12 couples were
present, and the occasion was one full of
enjoyment for ull who attended.
We are soon to haven telephone exchange, j
Arrangements having been made that will I
insure its completion within a few weeks. ,
Mr. A. It. Smith, president of the Iiock t
Hill Buggy company, will erect and own .
the line. With a telephone exchange as- <
sured and another cotton mill almost in sight, i
Hock Hill is ready to "set the pace" for any J
of her sister cities in the race of progress. |
LETTER FROM HILLOCK S CREEK. j {
I>lKCUHKihg the Constitutional Convention?Acel- ' ]
dents Among the Negroes?Personal?IMs- j !
oouraged at the Trice of Cotton. : j
Correspondence of the Yorkvllle Enquirer.
Bullock's Creek, October 1.?Politics is i
one of the main topics of conversation now.
The advisableness of voting for a coustitu- j
tional convention is discussed, at present, I
more than any other feature. Some say it is j
what we want and every one should vote for
it; others say that this is the wrong time for <
it. So now who is right? The only way .
for us to do in this matter, as in all others, is ,
to decide and uct for ourselves. The tin^g i
lias come when every one must think and I
net for themselves. No man can do as the I
missletoe does; depend on something else ,
for their existence. I;
Sociables and parties have commenced and '
the young people can be heard planning i1
ways and means by which they can obtain .
the old folks'*consent toattend them. Some
of the older ones are opposed to us young!'
people going to such things ; but we would I,
like to jog their memories with the fact that | i
they were once young and enjoyed such!)
things.
Our brothers in black down here, seem to |
be getting somewhat careless in preserving <
their existence, judging from their acts in ]
the last few weeks. One shot himself with j (
a gun which proved fatal; another removed :
some of his toes with an ax ; and last Sun- j
day, while hunting chestnuts, a third one ,
shot himself in the thigh with a pistol. i
Rev. Mr. Millard, of Kichburg, lias been i
conducting a series of meetings at Mt. 1'leas- 1
ant churcii. Mr. Millard is a lluent speaker
and an earnest preacher, and no doubt bis ,
sermons will do much good in that community.
[
Mrs. Klias Ionian is recovering slowly ,
front a fractured hone, which she received in i
falling from the steps a few days ago.
The farmers of this section are not in a
very good spirits over the | resent price of'ji
cotton; hut they should be grateful for the
magnificent crop of corn and other things
with which they have been blessed. So let
us wear brighter faces and enjoy more hope- i
fill thoughts, and we shall yet rejoice in a
prosperity that will bring comfort and J
pleasure to our homes. (? akcox. ,

Chills are still waging their war on human- j

Mr. and Mrs. Ed Workman buried their

The only comfort we have when we take
our cotton to market, is that the Bible says,

ThkBattlkof Yam*?Additional details
of the recent naval battle between the Japanese
and Chinese at Yalu, have reached this
country. The Japanese had 12 ships while
the Chinese had only (?. Before the fight
commenced, the ships of the respective sides
were in two groups. The Japanese hegan
matueuvering for the advantageous position.
The Chinese mameuvered to thwart the enemy.
Presently, the Japanese fleet divided
into groups; seven ships in one and live in
the other. The Chinese also divided their
fleet and detailed two ships to engage the I
five, and kept four to engage the seven.
After exchanging a few shots, the smaller j
group of Japanese ships sailed away, and j
were followed by the two Chinese ships.
What was done by either side is not yet |
known, though the Chinese claim to have
sunk one of the Japanese ships. The group j
of seven Japanese ships began to steam I
around the four Chinese ships in a circle, i
The distance between the two groups of ves-1
sels varied from one to five miles. The Japan-,
ese vessels were armed with small rapid fire
guns, and the Chinese were armed with slow
firing guns of much larger calibre. The
Inns inanasred to keep out of range of the
large gnus, and at the same time keep the
Chinese within range of their small rapid fire
^uns. The Chinese vessels were literally
riddled with shot from the Japanese. One
Df the Japanese vessels was badly injured
i>y heavy shot from the Chinese. The Chinese
finally got out of ammunition and had
to give up the fight. The loss of life on eithjr
side was comparatively small ; but the loss
)f the four vessels by the Chinese was a severe
blow to their navy. In the opinion of
foreign naval officers, the Japs are greatly
he superior of the Chinese in seamanship.
To Exterminate the Crown.
? According to the Mountaineer, crows
ire very troublesome in the upper portion of
jrreenvillc county, and the people are ar anging
for a big hunt on October 5. Beginng
at about daylight, everybody in the vi:inity
will start out with shotgun and rifle,
ind making to a common center, try to kill
dl the crows in the circle. The plan used to
vork well with wolves, deer and even rab>its;
but just how it will work in the case
>t crows rather depends not only on the skill
>f the hunter, but on the range of the guns.
The crow is a very smart bird, and in a case
ike this he will no doubt fly high.

We are selling a heavy body machinery or engine

fvery case. We also sell an extra heavy body
cylinder oil. We have seen nothing to compare
with it on this market. Price fio cents a gallon.
A Sum for School Children.
We have a lamp chimney cleaner that does the
work of cleaning a chimney nicely. This clean?r
formerly sold for i> cents. We now sell it for "?
cuts. What percent, of reduction litis been biade
in the price of the cleaner? The first child from
the town and country who sends us the proper
ms',ver will get each a cleaner free.

We tire offering a razor, every one of which is
guaranteed to give satisfaction or the price will

and cut himself. We give this warning and
ire therefore not responsible for any disfiguration
,,-liili, nviiiir niic ot'l liese razors.
Our I'latform.
Wo have carefully prepared very full and plain
directions for the administration of Anti-Ferment
in the diseases lor which it it recommended.
In all eases, especially the indigestion and
wasting diarrluea and dysentery of children, if
the same eare and attention is given its administration
that is given to the prescription of a
physician, the result would he that you would
need no other medicine. We feel sure of thisund
isk that the directions that will he found around
every hot tic he carefully followed. The more
we sell of this medicine the more we are honestly
and candidly impressed with its great virtues
us a remedy for the cure of disease. And as a
general family medicine to he kept in the house
til the time, we are satisfied that it has no equal.
If your child picks at its nose, is restless ami
becomes frightened at night, has irregular appetite,
lips lose their color, and shows little disposition
to run and play, it is more than likely that
it is troubled with worms. A dose or two of
1'ainphell's Vermicide will destroy and expel
lie worms and restore its health.

f Shoes at from 20 Cents
a Pair Upward!
TX times gone, the merchants of ye olden time
-* would go to market with a grip sack tilled
with money, with which to buy goods. Alter
a few weeks'stay in the markets, a large stock
of sundry goods would begin to arrive, and the
clerks would be kept busy marking goods under
the direction of a "liggerless," proprietor,
for several days, during which time you would
often hear, if you could get through a locked
door, such questions as this: "Mr. , henis
a ease of shoes, which cost ?>12 a dozen pairs;
what shall I mark them?" "Ahem," theproprielorsaid,
looking over his spectacles and at the
ceiling, "bet me think ; let me see, let me, let.
Well we will sell them at Sit!" "All right ;"and
with lightning rapidity the clerk marked them
?l t* I <? II ?O?"I I lit*! IJH* >?T, iiiv;
proprietor. "Wo can't ultbrd to sell those shoes
that way ; we haven't added anything Airfreight
and dravage: Put on 1.7 per eent for that: that
will make the priee $2..'HI. Ah, well, just make it
that will be cheap enough for them ! The
elerk not quite understanding the proprietor
asked, "Did you say $2.21?" "The d?1, no;
do you think I am going to give my shoes away
for nothing?"
This is the first year 1 have ever been in business
alone, and I am aeeountable to no one for
the prices at which I sell my goods. I buy for
ciish and sell for cash ; and if I don't make any
money, I have a place to loafer and 1 will have
lots of fun.
I have as nice a line of SIIOKS as anybody
at prices that would-be competitors can't touch.
Here they are:
Children's line shoes at from 20 cents a pair
upward.
Children's heavy shoes at from 2.1 cents a pair
upward.
Hoys' coarse shoes at from 2.1 cents a pair
upward.
Hoy's line shoes at from KS cents a pair
upward.

Ladies' tine shoes at from <>! cents a pair

that few of them fully appreciate the
j importance of settling on the day the note or ae-1

| our custom, where parties owing us failed to i
I meet a guano note when it was due, to pay it for
j them and wait for our money until it suited them
to settle. We would be glad to be able to continue
this practice; but candor compells us to
j say that circumstances beyond our control ren|
dors it impossible for us to do so this year. The

' must insist that KVKI5Y person who purchased
fertilizers from us to be paid for on that day, will
settle up in full by that time. We mean exactly
I what we say when we say KVKUYIiODY, and
hope none "will imagine that we intend to omit;
them. We hope that when October lfi shall have j
arrived that every note shall have been taken up.

will render it necessary to force the collection of
what is due us, and hope that our friends will
attend to the matter promptly. Now, remember.

Yes, inv friends, it is a fact that |
'
I have been to New York this season, {
and having returned, hardly long
enough to get the dust from my shoes,
it is impossible for 111c to write a detailed
advertisement of my purchases
in that city; but our milliner is here
and you may assure yourself that we
will dance in the ring and help furnish
the music, and it need not surprise
you if you if we "call the figgers."
Stranger things have happened, and
it has been said "That you can fool
some of the people some of the time ;
but, you can't fool all the people all
the time."
I will offer you this season the
same quality of goods that I have always
handled and with the tariff off ;
and having bought late in the season
I fear nobody's prices, quality or
style. But listen ! All goods going
out of our house will mean that the
cash has been left behind. I have
misplaced the pencils and pens, and
instructed my employes to exact the
cash in every transaction. The books

THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES.
A Yol'NG farmer called at my place a few
l\. days ago? I think it was last Thursday?and
the following is the substance of the conversation
that took place; and we have no doubt that
there are hundreds of others who will read this
who have thought the same things that this especial
farmer put in words. His first question
was: "What is the price of that Corbin Disk
Harrow?"
We replied thirty dollars.
He next asked the price of a No. l-'l Oliver
plow.
We replied eight dollars.
Then he delivered himself soincfliing after
this style: "Those are two things that 1 want,
need and am going to have. I have used the
1'orbin Harrow and know what it is. It will do
more and better work in less time than any implement
I ever saw. I sowed wheat with one
last fall, and did as much work in one day with
it and two mules, as could have been done in
three or four days by the same mules and two
hands, and did it better. No plow is needed in
sowing wheat or oats, and then it leaves the
land in such good shape. I can't see why I have
put oil'buying so long, because I know that I
UllVC IOSI more mail 11115 worm III im;
Bvery year that I have farmed by not having it.
It's true that cotton is powerful cheap; but then
that makes it so much more necessary to cut expenses
in cultivation and preparation of the
land. My crops cost me about the same for
i'ultivation that they did when I got 10 cents for
otton. I know that with the Disk Harrow I
an prepare my cotton and corn land, all except
laying oil', and sow my wheat and oats, and that
will save lots of labor and expense. I's farmers
have got to cut expenses in preparing for and
cultivating our crops, and the Disk will help us
lots.
I know that Oliver plows are the best in the
world. 1 have heard of them all my life, and
inie of my neighbors owns one, ami everybody
who has seen its work, says it beats anything iii
the way of a turning plow they ever saw. It
runs the nicest you ever saw, and it is not much
more than half as heavy on the team as any other
plow I know of. Yes, I want a Corbin Harrow
and one of them Oliver plows. I don't know
which size I'll take. I may want one a little
larger than that one I see you have there."
"What is the price of that mowing machine?"
"It is worth forty-live dollars."
"It is a good one. 1 have seen it tried. One
of my neighbors wants me to go in with him
mid buy one, and a rake. I want to get one
next spring, and propose toby myself. I don't
like the partnership idea."
It will he seen that this young farmer is getting
to see why he is not making the same
itmount of money on fi-eents cotton that he did
1)11 It).
You will do well to do as he is going to do, and
come and get a Disk Harrow and Oliver Plow
without further delay. You know that what
he said is so. SAM M. GRIST.
