ROCK HILL HAPPENINGS. Emancipation Day?Florida Exposition?Youn Folks' Parties?A Week of Prayer?Died I Dallas?Successful Charity Concert. Corna?pondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Rock Hill, January 7.?Last Tuesda; was celebrated by quite a large body of ou colored citizens, and Emancipation Da; seems to have attracted hither a number fror the surrounding country. A procession wa ^ formed under the leadership of John Smith an intelligent mechanic and good citizen which paraded through the principal stfeet to the enlivening music of the local colorei brass band. When the procession disbande* the crowd repaired to the Burial Aid Societ; hall, where several addresses were delivered "Florida's Rolling Exposition" was side tracked here last Friday evening for 2 hours, and quite a number of our people old and young, availed themselves on Satui day of the opportunity given of seeing thi exhihit of the nroducls from the "Land c Flowers. The Rock Hill Herald of last Wednesday published a letter from Rev. W. M. Ander son, of Jackson, Teuu., who takes this meth od of sending New Year greetings to hii many friends in and arouud Rock Hill. j The young folks had their full share a parties last week. Among the pleasante# of these may be mentioned the surprise part) by which a number of Miss Bessie Russell) friends took her unawares at her home o! Monday evening, and the party given f the residence of Mr. J. M. Cherry, on Wer uesday evening, complimentary to Mir Schorb, of Yorkville, who is now visit}? Miss Cora Rodgers. The week of prayer suggested by Evangelical Alliauce will be observedjhy the churches of our city. Beginning Ids evening at 7.30, services will be held icb evomng-during the week. These wilf-^ conducted at the various places of. woifbip in succession, and will be participated if by the following : Revs. H. R. Moseley, * G. < White, A. Sprunt, A. S. Lessley, if B. Brown, G. T. Harmon and B. O. BerryJ Quite a number of uew studentsfcave been added to the roll of the Presbypian High school since the holidays, and jt the graded school Superintendent Thomstp has had his hands full for the past few dtp examining and grading new pupils. Dr. T. A. Crawford and Mr. W. J. 8>ddey attended a meeting of the executive committee of the Wintbrop college trupes in Columbia last- week. There is to f a full meeting of the board in Columbia th* week, at which all necessary arrangeme*s will doubtless be made for completing &d furnishing the buildincrs already erectef- Sev eral of the skilled workmen who hJ^e "laid off" for a week or two past by thefchutting down of nearly all work at the college, have fouud profitable employment on thf Presbyterian church building which is not neariog completion, cud will have thus loft little or no time when work on the colleg^ building is resumed. Iutelligcnce reached this plsp on last Monday evening of the sudden dlath of Mr. WrF. Downum, at Dallas, N. C.jwbither he had gone only a few days previous on a visit to his son. Mr. Downum has Wen employed in the store of Captain L. Jf. DaviB for sometime past, and he will begjeatly missed by the large circle of friends uiora his kind nature and genial disposition lad attracted to himself. On Friday night a charityt concert was given by local talent, assiste^oy Miss Jennie Edwards, of Due West, 3 C. Roddey's hall was filled by an appreciative audience. That all present enjoyed tb# singing of the accomplished vocalist, Mi? Edwards, was demonstrated by the porsistaace they showed in having her sing at leas twice as many songs as were on the program. Mrs. Roddey's readings were all/good; in fact, to those who had alreadyfalleu under the charm of her powers asjnn elocutionist on former occasions, it sfemei that on last Friday night she fairly /utdid herself, both in her selections and inler aauner of rendering them. The inyumental duets by Misses Roddey and Ropell, and the mandolin enln hv Mr Fd Reif. contributed no little to the evening's enjoyment, and well sustainBfr ed the reputation of-lhe.se skillful musical performers. After Be regular programme was finished, Rev. W- G. White, to whose efDwts, mainly, tha*iople of Rock Hill are indebted for this qfllghflu entertainment, had begun giving u exhibition of the work done by his "kitche-gardfi" class, when a false alarm of fireiulside/caused a number of persons to leap the lifll, and interfered with the successAhich this last feature of the eutertainme# would have doubtless scored. The recppts atihe door amounted to more than $131 whichiund will go to some of the most desfving poor of our community.

It strikes me that here is an 1 [opportunity to teach those people who are , engaged in selling our cotton ten months before it is made, a lesson. As the result of the scheme, the South would rake in many millions of dollars in profits, and the bears of New Ytjrk and Liverpool would learn something that they would not be ! | slow to forget. , W. 0. Guy. i Lowrysville, January'7. MARRIAGE AT McCONNELLSVILLE. Miss May Harris is United to Mr. Samuel H. Love. McConnellsville, January 5.?The most i uotable social event of the season in this section was the marriage of Miss Mary Burris to Mr. Samuel H. Love, in Olivet church, on January 1. The church was decorated with holly and other evergreens, and from the center of an arch sprung over the space opposite the pulpit, hung a beautiful wedding bell. The decorations, which were by everybody pronounced most tasteful, were under the supervision of Mrs. P. M. Burris. The bridal party entered the- church at 7 o'clock. As Mrs. Dr. Love commenced the "Wedding March," Misses Lelia Burris and Mosie Ashe proceeded down the aisles, one on the right and the other on the left, and opened the floral wedding gates. Then ctyne the ushers?Messrs. Moore McOonuell and Will Moore?down the opposite aisles, and following were the attendants of the bride and groom as follows: Mr. Ernest Anderson, of Lowrysville, with Miss Lillian Crawford, down the right, and Mr. Reuben Burris and Miss Kittie Harshaw, down the left. Next came the bride, on the right, leaning on the arm of her maid of honor, M iss Edna Love, and the groom, on the left, on the arm of his best man, Mr. P. W. Love. When the bride and groom had taken their places, Rev. J. B. Swann, assisted by Rev. J. K. Hall, in a beautiful and Impressive sermon, made them man and wife. From the church the bridal party repaired to the home of the bride, where a bountiful repast was spread ; and after this a pleasant evening was spent in innocent amusements. The next day there was a delightful reception at the home of Mrs. Love, mother of the groom. At the marriage, the bride was tastefully dressed in cream silk, with white veil and orange blossoms, and the bridesmaids were becomingly arrayed in cream cashmere with lace and flowers. The bridal couple was the recipient of numerous beautiful and valuable presents, and they are also happy in the best wishes of a host of friends. SHARON SHAVINGS.

KUYKENDAL'S UUID PRO <i,UOS. ~ It Has Been for Many Years A custom of the regular advertisers of The Enquirer to extend through its columns at this season, their best wishes for a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year. Just up from a fortnight's "unwellness," I take the first opportunity of doing the same. We have seen the Now Year in its swathing bands, and I trust wo will all be spared to see it shrouded anil laid away with those that have gone before. In wishing my friends and patrons happiness, health and prosperity, I can, without selfishness, all'ord to be very generous in invoking for my patrons those precious gifls because I have such need of them myself. Happiness, as my friend Dr. W111. Walker would say "depends 011 one's environments." Prosperity on industry, economy and honesty, and health on circumstances. People will get sick aftd need medicines. The general diet of this season of the year is rich and in many cases brings 011 attacks of dyspepsia, indigestion and its fearful complements. The one design of medicine is to allay sull'ering and promote length of days. In the diseases we havo spoken of as being so common at this season, our Anti-Ferment is the remedy that removes the cause and rids you of the painful and unpleasant symptoms. We might go 011 and tell of the speciui llieUinilCM ?e llltiraiu HI imoimu and prolong life. We will keep you posted on these things later. We wish just now, however, to speak of Dermncreme, a preparation that is neeued in every household, in this kind of weather. Our Dr. C. M. Kuykendal having given the subject of preserving and beautifying the skin careful study, has prepared with great care what he appropriately calls Dermncreme, or skin cream. The effect of the wind or cold upon the face and hands is to drive off all the natural moisture and secretion of the skin, causing it to inflame, contract, crack and become rough, unpleasant and even painful. Dermacreme is made to meet and cure all these conditions, and keep the hands, lips and face smooth, soli and beautiful. Every ingredient in Dermacreme is healthful, cmolicnt and curative and will be taken up and absorbed by the skin and thus protect it from the effects of cold and wind. Put up in beautiful alabaster boxes. Ladies, you need just such an article; please give Dermacreme a trial. Lamar Bust Proof Oafs at SO Cents Per Bushel. These oats are superior to the old lied Rust Proof Oats, being heavier and growing much taller. They are sold by the man who raises them in Georgia at ?2.50 per bushel at his door.

CAROLINA BCGGY CO. j SAM M. GRIST. FOR THE BIGGEST HOG' AGRKAT many large hogs were killed iii Yorkville during the year 1894; but not near so many as should have been, and I hone that , \V9en the record for 18515 is made on, it will show that at least twice as many have beAn slaughter-p cd.and that their aggregate weight Will beat least > twiccasmuch. In order to prove that I mean ex- ' aetly what I say, I propose to oiler some inducement to hog raisers to raise heavy ones. I pro- i pose to give FIVE DOLLARS IN GOLD to the citizen of York county, white or black, male or female, who slaughters the heaviest home raised porker, 14 months old or under, bej tween the 1st day of November and the 15th day j of December, issr?. I have not time to give full ] conditions this week ; but will do so in a subsequent issue ofl'iiK Knwihkk. I will simply ' say that there is no scheme or trick in this oiler, j and that I mean exactly what I say when I otter i Five Dollars in gold for the largest home raised i j hog, not over 14 months of age, and that the < | weight must be net, and the age of the hog must i j be certified to by the owner, and the weight by ; three disinterested witnesses. .Let everybody! enter the contest. It is sure to prove profitable j to every contestant, although only one can win i the prize. Send ine the net weight and age of the largest hog you killed in 1S94. WINDMILLS, RAMS AND PIPING.; I Last week I said that I would probably have j something to say this week about Windmills, ! Hydraulic Rams and Piping. What I have to ! say is simply this: I am agent for York county ! | for the Windmills, Tanks, etc., made by the I . i Wind Kngine Co. This company has been in j ! business for more than to years, and its mills are | j used in all parts of the world, and stand at the I ' head. The company makes three styles, and | each one is guaranteed to be the best of its class. I I If you contemplate putting up a mill, let me j I figure with you. HYDRAULIC RAMS I I believe 1 can furnish you with a Hydraulic j ! Ham for less money than any other agent in this j section, and if you have the necessary fall at your | spring, or on a convenient branch, you will be I delighted with the way in which it will force water to your house, horse lot or anywhere you want it. PIPING AT CORRECT PRICES. By an arrangement with one of the largest and best concerns in America, I am enabled to make very dose prices on Piping of all sizes. If you want'to put water in your house, I will be pleased to furnish estimates on the job complete. SAM M. GRIST, at Grist Cousins. I.KWIH (i. GRIST. SAM M. GRIST. GRIST COUSINS. A GROWING BUSINESS.

A Few Points as to My Business this Year. , ? YOU CAN READ MY ADS WITH SOME PROFIT i TO YOURSELF. DURING the year 1895, upon which we have just entered with such bright prospects of x prosperous year to all, it is my intention to handle a stock of goods that will compare most favorably both as to QUANTITY and QUALIFY with any stock of Dry Goods that has over hcen handled within the bounds of York coun;y. I shall continue to meet any and all competition in prices, as I shall continue to conduct my business on a strictly CASH basis, both as 0 my buying and selling, as I cannot afford to ose the G per cent, discount that I get by paying SPOT CASH, and which I am only enabled to lay by selling for SPOT CASH. Now, as to the QUALITY of goods, I shall handle as good j 1 class of goods as is ever demanded by tho people of this community. LADIES DRESS JOODS and everything in ladies' wear will bo fiven most careful attention so as tohavc everyhingin this line up date in Style, Quality and ['rice?the lowest possible prices always being i special consideration. CLOTHING for men ind boys, is another line that shall receive, my-i Mireful attention. Although the class of Clothing which I handled during 1894 was up to the iverage, the Clothing that I will sell during this rear will bo equal in STYLE, QUALITY and PIT to any Clothing that has ever been handled in i'orkvillc ; but when it comes to PRICES, they will bo so LOW that competitors will tremble io violently in their shoes as to wear out the neels of their socks. In SHOES I shall handle he celebrated and world-renowned W. L. DOUGLASS SHOES for gentlemen and ladies, n all tho styles and prices. I will also sell the Tlebrated Shoes for men, women and children mnnufuctncd by J. B. LEWIS A CO. My stock will be carefully watched in every detail, and I will keep the quantity and qualities up to a high notch in the mercantile scale, and shall certainly protect all my customers in the prices, whether your purchase is 1 cent or $30. During the year, it will no doubt pay you to watch my advertisements, as I shall offer bargains every week ; and you will do well to pay strict attention to what I say in my "ads" each week. Finally,'brethren, the styles and qualities will be up to date, and LOW PRICES on everything will be the lead horse in the band wagon. H. C. STRAUSS. Agents for Coate's Cotton. JOHN J.

The goods that I sell will be up to the high standard of quality that has always characterized my stock. I WILL KEEP IN STOCK Everything to be found in a First-Class Dry Goods store.
