marked simply "R. H.," and again "R. Hare," usually in small letters down below the general inscription. During bis long residence in Yorkville, Mr. Hare was pre-eminently one of the people. He is remembered by the older citizens as one of the most active mem-j bers of the locally famous band that was k maintained here for many years previous to the war, and old hearts become young again when memory carries them back to the Fourth of July and other aute bellum processions led by "Dick" Hare, beating the snare drum, and "Tom" Palmer playL ing the life. ft Mr. Hare was twice married, and his second wife survives him.

F An Acceptable Present. 1 Treasurer Neely has the thanks of Tile ^ Enquirer for a basket of fully developed, carefully selected and perfectly matured tomatoes. The basket referred to is a part of a generous shipment sent to Mr. Neely from Boardman, Fla., by his friend, Mr. W. R. MeCullough, who, formerly of this county, has been located for several years at Boardinau. Preaching Against Liquor. "Dick Morse," the well-known prohi* bitionist of Charlotte, is in Rock Hill ~ preaching to the big crowds that are intending the Sam Jones meetings. Mr. Morse is a rather unique character. Since his conversion, some 15 years ago, he has been traveling over the country preaching, especially against the sale and use of liquor, with great earnestness. He pays his own expenses wherever he goes, and J accepts money only as a freewill offering from those who see fit to give. AluioHt Completed. The handsome new residence of Dr. J. H. Saye, at Sharon, is almost, but not quite, completed. The doctor hopes to get into it next week, and have the finishing l done afterward. His hurry is due to t>.e k fact that he has sold the house in which w he is now living to the Associate Reformed congregation for a parsonage. The building he is now completing -ontains L nine rooms, including a bath room, and, ^ when finished, will be the handsomest residence not only in Sharon, but in that corner of the county. Fleu Stone Quarry. In looking about to get stone with which to wall the reservoir at the Clover cotton factory, Mr. W. T. Beamguard reLcently opened a fine quarry of granite on Mr. D. M. Ford's place, four miles north of Clover. The stone splits out in blocks of convenient size with the greatest ertse, and under the circumstances might bo a little gold mine. The trouble is that there are no railroad facilities. Although the quarry is located on the Narrow Gauge, and Mr. Beamguard tried to make a reasonable contract tor transportation, he found that the cheapest way to get the stone to Clover was by means of wagons. Cyclone and Cloiidb <rst. A violent cyclone, accompanied by a s cloudburst and haii, visited the Blairsville neighborhood last Sunday. The storm came up suddenly, and in a few minutes it was over; but during the short time it lasted, its violence was unusually - severe. Mr. James Sherrer's barn was unroofed, fences were blown down on Mr. Clark W. Moore's place, and the crop of Mr. J. E. L. Robinson was so badly damaged as to make replanting necessary. One man reports that just above bis house the streams were not mudiod, while in sight below, they would swim a horse. The damage, no doubt, was much greater than is here mentioned ; but the reporter was unable to get fuller details. Value of Good Roads. ' The Lockhart mills do most of their hauling front Sharon. Machinery, lumber and goods come to that point, and they bring most of their products there for shipment. The distance is 1G tqiles. During the winter, the roads were heavy and the days were short, it was with much difficulty that a team could make the ' round trip in a day. Now, with slightly longer days and comparatively good roads?roads that are at least hard and tirm?each team, by running somewhat into the night, manages to make two trips. Ahead of Tiuie. Uattney meager: v> ueu me i.io irtuu arrived Sunday afternoon, a distinguished looking gentleman alighted from the train and repaired to Lipscomb's hotel, regis. tering as "James Aldricb, Aiken, S. C." It soon became whispered about that " Judge Aldrich had arrived to hold court. The fact is that the judge was a little premature. He had got it into his head that court was to open last Monday, when it was not to open until next Monday. The judge was excusable, however, as a number of papers in the state had published that court was to begin last Monday. Mr. Aldrich remained over until Monday, when he returned home. During his stay he was entertained by the members ol" the Cherokee bar. Condition of >Ir. Neely. Hock llill Herald, Wednesday: Mr. John Harvey Neely's condition is now much more hopeful. When visited by the reporter last Friday, he was found sitting on the side of the bed, propped up with pillows, his feet resting on the lloor. The knife wound in the back of the neck has healed. He can hold his head erect ~ and has recovered partial use of his right arm and leg, being able to move tl ese members quite freely. He declares that with each day the muscles in his left side grow stronger. His right side is still almost powerless. He drank a glass of iced buttermilk through a rubber tube with , evident relish. His mind is unimpaired and he talks freely and very cheerfully. 1 Ilis family and friends are quite hopeful of his recovery and the physicians feel very much encouraged. , The Man Fur the Place. A representative of The Enquirer ' has covered a considerable portion of York county since the announcement : was made that Governor Ellerbe had 1 appointed Hon. John L. McLaurin to succeed Senator Earle, and he finds that the appointment gives universal satisfac- 1 tion without regard to former factional allignments. Once or twice it was sug- ' gested to the reporter that Mr. McLaurin i was the best man "in that faction," and . when he asked who was better in the j other faction, he got no answer. i Committee* Appointed.

Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer: Blacksburo, May 28.?The Exquir- i er is to be congratulated upon the fact , that it was tte first paper in upper Caro- i lina and perhaps in the whole stale, to announce in its issue of 26th instant, the j appointment by the governor of Hon. J. ] L. McLauriu to the United States senate i to succeed Judge Earle. It was even i hours ahead of The State in publishing | thn haws. f Rev. Dr. J. D. MeCullough, of Walhal- | la, has been spending several days with i his friends in this place, much to their . pleasure. He held services in the Episcopal church yesterday, and will leave this morning for Union, where he expects to preach on Sunday next. He will be ^ joined by Mrs. MeCullough at Spartanburg, and she will accompany him to Union. ' Mrs. J. W. McLure, of Union, is visit- ] ing her sons?Arthur and Hugh?and i their families at this place. She will return home tomorrow. Mr. Hugh McLure, who was injured ou j Saturday last, by being thrown from his ? train while it was running, near Newport, > is getting along nicely aud is able to walk around the house and yard. Mr. P. H. Freeman has rented the J. ] B. Ross house and lot, and will move into \ it next week. Our chief of police, J. C. Duncan, captured here yesterday evening, "Pet" f Brown, an escaped convict from Monroe, j X. C. This morning he was turned over ( to Deputy Sheriff Webb, of Shelby. ; Brown was sent from Cleveland county to the chaingang at the last term of court there, and was being worked near Mon- : roe, at which place he made his escape last Saturday. w. a. * i THE WAR IN GREECE. I i The Powers Still Trying to Secure a Satis- ^ factory Settlement. The recently agreed upon armistice still prevails iu Greece, aud while the ; two armies are lying faciDg each other ?the Turks ready to strike at a moment's notice?the representatives of the powers are quarreling with each - 1 : ? 4 U A - oilier iu Aiucua uuu iu tucn ics^ctuvc capitols, in an effort to arrive at some satisfactory adjustment of the diffi- , culty. j The main point of the contention ( seems to be over the question of in- v demnity aud whether or not the Turks are to be allowed to continue the occupation of Thessaiy until the indemnity is paid. The Turks think they are entitled to Thessaiy by right ^ of conquest, aud hold that, under any v circumstances, they are entitled to c bold the province until the indemuity claimed is settled. Although on account of the complications that are likely to arise, none of the powers t will hear to the permanent cession of c Thessaiy, some of them think that r temporary occupation by the Turks is f. emiueutly proper. c That the Turks are dead set on the question of holding Thessaiy there is no question. It is said that a few days ago, the grand vizier presented a re- j port in which he said that this was the ( desire of the whole of Islam, and in , his judgment the proper thing to do. "Aud," he continued, "If my views are unpalatable, I beg of you to acwepl my resignation." As illustrating the popular feeliug, it is said that one day j last week the sultan visited a hospital r and invited a wounded soldier to prof- 1 fer a dying request. The soldier irn- ]j plored that Thessaly be held, and the j story goes on to say that the sultan t turned pale aud shed tears. From time to time lately, there have ^ been suggestions of the probability of t a "holy" war. By this is meant the * pitting of the whole of Islam against Christian Europe. In one of the mosques of Constantinople, under the ? guard of armed priests, night aud day, in an irou box, and wrapped in many . folds of silk, there is a small green [ Hag that is the most sacred relic of the < entire Mohamedau world. This Hag t was originally one of the curtains of ^ the bed of Mahomet. While the re- | mains of the dead prophet were still ou the bed, his favorite wife took the curtain, presented it to the prophet's j successor, and told him that it should lead the faithful to victory. It isa wellknown fact that if the sultan should unfurl this Hag, the act would be im- ] mediately followed by an uprising of s the entire Mohamedan world, and the 51 war that would ensure would be one 1 to the death. Many times this Hag has . been unfurled and ueyer has it trailed in defeat. The sultan has already threatened the declaration of auother holy war, and the threat is not without a certain influence over various governments of Europe. The present outlook is that, under any circumstances, it will be several weeks yet before the trouble between Turkey and Greece is fluully settled, and that the process of settlement may vet involve in serious complication some of the other powers, seems to be the easiest kind of a probability. SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. Cue For Castle Plnckuey. The city council of Charleston, on Tuesday night, adopted a memorial address to congress asking that Castle Piuckuey, the famous old fortification iu the harbor, be converted by the national government into a borne for ilisabled officers and men of the army and navy. An Incendiary Fire. The barn and stables of Mr. George Crosslaud, a brother-in-law of Senator McLauriu, near Bennettsville, was destroyed by an incendiary fire, last Tuesday. In the stables there were 60 head of stock, all of which were consumed. To Succeed McLanrin. The appointment of Hon. John L. McLaurin to the Uuited States senate, of course, leaves a vacancy in the Sixth congressional district. This vacancy will have to be filled by a special election; but the understanding is that the governor will not call such an election until after the Democrats have had the opportunity to choose their candidate by means of a primary. MERE-MENTION. J. C. Dunham, who is wanted for the murder of a family of six people in San Jose, California, was captured at La Grange, Texas, last Tuesday. The rewards that have been offered for him aggregate $6,000. Officers of the Cuban league, in New York, are trying to raise \ fund of $1,000,000, which sum they believe will be sufficient to establish Cuban independence.

I WITH some people a horse is a ^ horse?they can't tell the difference between a thoroughbred and a plug, and t and they often mistake the latter for the ? former, supposing that all slick, fat and c smooth horses "are the same," and in 1 their opinion a Montana is as good as a Kentucky throughbred, and tbey never 1 know any better unless perchance they 1 have occasion to test the two under similar trying circumstances. We are not writing a horse advertisement, but only use the above illustration to impress a point that will develop later, and it is this: WITH THE AMATUER :>r novice, who sta?ts out to buy a Bicycle T * wheel is a wheel. He imagines that . there is no difference in either quality or a the running features of Wheels when the i? price is approximately the same. After e lie buys his Wheel and learns to ride, he > is more thoroughly convinced than ever it before that his "opinion" is the correct e 11 ?i Iot.o llO Konrmiiu tn lulUO u fan' r* JIICf UIIICTOiS *J?p|/Clli3 ?.vr liUf u ? iu.. j, break downs under the same circum- d stances under which some other make of 41 Wheel stands up, and gets pulled by the e repair man for a nice little sum. Then he e learns that a Wheel is not a Wheel, or in b ather words, that there is a difference; but n right here his pride steps in and causes it him to stick by the Wheel which he is p really afraid to risk out of sight of home. s< Again, he may be induced to mount a a Wheel of some other make than his first o purchase, and before he goes fifty yards p lie sees that it runs more smoothly and if ighter than his'n, and admits it to him- o lelf and perhaps will to some other folks, y jut not often. Here pride comes in again, tc PROOF OF THE PUDDING I Is in the eating. We have been selling Monarch Bicycles since 1892, and there is -| lot a single solitary wheel that we have I ever sold in this section that is not in use today, and there are some that have never iad 10 cents worth of repairs on them. Does this prove their durability ? ^ NOW HERE IS A CLINCHER." There is a certain manufacturer of bicy- t le tires that employs a team of profes- ? iional racers to ride their tires, on the ? race-track, and the team is composed of Vj :he fastest riders?no other kind can hold f ;he job. Heretofore the contract has pro- * rided that the rider could choose his own i wheel, provided it was fitted with tires ? made by his employers; but recently they liave been forced to modify owing to the " fact thai to<i large a proportion were askng for the Monarch Wheels, and the tire manufacturers were afraid that if they _ illowed all their men to ride Monarchs, the other wheel manufacturers would - joy cot their tires. See? Their reason J the ridel's) being that they had learned jy observation and experience that the Monarch stood the terrible strain better ' ban any other make and that it runs m ighter. It was business with them. Not lentiment. THREE OUT OF FIVE. ? rhere were five professional riders enered for the races at Rock Hill on Tues lay iasi, :soiu msuuu, hm iuiiuio. m Newhouse, Buffalo, N.
