Miss Moore has not yet made requisition for stamps of the new seriqp, but will probably do so soon. The Races Last Friday.

Two runaway accidents, one of which came near being quite serious, occurred at the head of Congress street between the residences of Mr. W. B. Moore and Rev. B. H.Grier, last Saturday afternoon. Mr. Hugh Moore, who lives south of Yorkville about 5 miles, was driving a mule to a buggy and was going towards Ihe outskirts of town. A young man from the country, accompanied by two young ladies, in auother buggy was coming into town. At about the same time, from some unexplainable cause, both mules ran away. Mr. Moore's buggy was dashed against a hydrant and broken. He was thrown out on his head and shoulders and knocked insensible. The other buggy was turned over and the occupants throwu out; but the young man was able to hold on to the lines and no serious damage was done. Mr. Moore recovered sufficiently during the afternoon to admit of bis being takeu home. UNION MEETING. Synopsis of What the Baptist Brethren Have Been Doing In Yorkville. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enauirer. Yorkville, May 30.?The churches composing the York Baptist association held their union meeting with the Yorkville Baptist church May 27-29. Messengers representing nearly all of the 13 churches which compose the association were in attendance. Friday morning's session was given up to the enrollment of delegates, permanent organization of the union (which takes the place of the Sunday school convention of former years) and reports in reference to the work and condition of the churches composing the body. Messrs. \V. J. Waters and T. G. Matthews were re-elected moderator and clerk. Mr. W. H. Edwards, of Rock Hill, was made vice moderator. At the evening session Rev. John D. Robertson, of Rock Hill, preached a beautiful and impressive sermon, to a large audience, on the annointing of Jesus by Mary of Bethany, in which he made a strong plea for the beautiful and devotional in life as opposed to the purely secular and material. The sermon was followed by an address by T. M. Bailey, D. D., of Greenville, state mission secretary, on the uuion meeting and its work. In addition to being a man of wide experience and ripe ? 1 ? ?? "TV- T Salt man iu SCUOiarsnip, Mr. nnucj, ail Iii3iiuin?| 1.J possessed of a rich vien of humor which always enables him to entertain and instruct any audience which he may address. This occasion was no exception. The sessions of Saturday morning and afternoon, were given up to the discussion of of practical questions pertaining to church life and work. Interesting speeches were made by Representative H. E. Johnson, Dr. Bailey, Rev. Thos. Dixon, W. H. Edwards, Rev. B. J. Woodward and others. The subject which elicited the most lively discussion was in reference to the proper attitude of Christian voters to the present prohibition movement. Most of those who spoke took the ground that duty and expediency demand that professed Christians shall give their moral and political support in favor of total prohibition. On Saturday evening Rev. B. J. Woodward preached a strong and timely sermon on regeneration, its nature and necessity. The speaker attributed many of the evils of present-day Christianity to the lack of this all-important change of heart in the case of manual Christians. On Sunday morning a Sunday school mass meeting was held at which U?v. John I). Robertson and Dr. T. M. Bailey delivered addresses. At 11 o'clock Dr. Bailey preached an able sermon t<> a large audience and took a public collection for state mission work. Sunday evening Rev. John D. Robertson occupied the pulpit. The sessions were all very well attended and on the whole the meeting was a success. The next meeting will be held with the Flint Hill church beginning Friday be !*** UoKKuth in Tnlr V < D ANOTIIKR PROCLAMATION. Governor EUerlte Call* For 448 More Men. The war department has called for 44S additional volunteers with which to recruit the infantry companies now in Columbia up to 100 men each, and on Monday Governor Ellerbe issued the following additional proclamation : "Whereas the president of the United Slates hus called for 44S additional volunteers to recruit all infantry companies of the present organization up to its maximum of 100 men and the heavy battery of artillery up to 200 men, as required by law. "Now, therefore, I, W. H Ellerbe, governor of South Carolina, do hereby call upon the citizens of the state at large for the above quota." Wants to Be a Brigadier.

The item was then published as a rumor, but now it is known as a fact. The governor was asked about it yesterday, and he said it was true that lie had tendered his services to the president and hoped that one of the brigadierships would pass his way. Gov. Ellerbe said he had been informed that there were yet a number of brigadier generals to be appointed, and he had reasons for thiuking that he would come in for one of the appointments. Ms OF TUESDAY, Telegraphic Summary of the Latest News From the Front. Hy Telegraph to The Yorkville Enquirer. Hurrying to Tampa. Chickamauga, Ga., May 31.?The Sixty-Ninth New York and eight other regiments were today ordered to go to Tampa immediately. The movement is construed to mean that there is under contemplation a simultaneous attack on Santiago and Porto Rico. "Want Schley to "Wait. Washington, May 31.?The war board has today had under discussiou the advisability of haviug Schley to postpone his attack upon Cervera until after the landing of troops near Santiago. Schley is at liberty to do whatever he considers best under the circumstances, and it is hardly probable that he will wait. General "Ben Hur." Indiana congressmen are trying to induce President McKiuley to appoint General Lew Wallace to be a major general. This Is Sensible. After the meeting of the cabinet today members stated that the president has at last finally decided to postpone trie proposed aaacK on navaim umu ucxt fall. This decision was arrived at for the reason that l he city is regarded as a pesthole where disease will kill more Americans than are likely to be harmed by Spanish bullets. There may possibly arise contingencies which will make it necessary to occupy the city sooner; but this is uol now thought to be probable. It is stated that Sampson will proceed at ouce to Porto Rico, accompanied by the troops, and under this arrangement both Heels and all forces will be easily available for operations either in Porto Rico or on the eastern end of Cuba. A Safe Landing. Key West, May 31.?The steamship Florida has successfully landed 500 Cubans with arms and ammunition on the coast of Cuba. This force is now with General Garcia. News reaches here today that the vice president of the Cuban republic has been captured by the Spaniards. Don't Want to Fight. Paris, May 31.?Iu announcing the new tariff agreement to the cabinet today M.

By Telegraph to The Yorkvllle Enquirer. Chicago, May 31.?The bottom dropped out of the May wheat deal today, owing to settlements with Leiter. At the close last Saturday May wheat was worth $1.75.. The exchange was closed yesterday on account of holiday. The price has fallen to $1.25 a bushel. Leiter's profits on the deal are estimated at $7,000,000. LATEST FROM MANILA. Dewey In Still Waiting For Supplied and Re-Enforcementd. A Hong Kong dispatch of May 30,' |says the British second-class cruiser Bique, has arrived there from Iloilo aud Manila. She reports all quiet at both places. The Spanish garrison at Iloilo number 100 men and the place has no defenses. The foreigners there are sufe. Supplies are reaching Manila plentifully from the surrounding country. There is no panic at Manila. The Spaniards arc working upon the fortifications, but their guns are old and useless aud they are short of ammunition. Rear Admiral Dewey has informed the authorities at Manila that he will hold them responsible for the life of llie cupiam 01 uie npanisn guiiuoui, C'allao, captured by the United States fleet. The Spaniards have been threatening to shoot him for surrendering, although confronted by the whole American fleet. All the American ships are atCavite, in Manila hay. Salt provisions are plentiful, hut fresh provisions are not obtainable. In reply to the Spanish overtures to win over Aquinaldo, the iusurgeuls are said to have informed the Spaniards that they are neutral and will await events. The Spauish gunboat El Cnno, which captured the American bark Saranac, loaded with coal and owned by Win. Simpson, Jr., of New York, has left Iloilo and gone to the Sumoangang river. It is said the Spaniards released the Sarauac owing to the fact that she hoisted the British Hag prior to her capture. The Americans have captured the Spanish gunboat Ley tie, which was attempting to run dispatches into Iloilo. A steamer is reported to have landed 6,000 riHes at Cavite for the use of the insurgents. The Spaniards have offered $25,000 for the head of Aquinaldo, the insur<r??nt lmirlpr The governor of Hong Kong has prohibited the United States auxiliary gunboat Zaflro from taking war stores to the American fleet, but he has permitted her to ship "officers' luxuries." The Zafiro sails from here to Manila today. The American warships are still in the bay, except a couple of smaller ones, which are being used on patrol duty outside. Rear Admiral Dewey is losing men from disease almost daily. Smallpox and dysentery are said to be rife iu the American squadron. Aquinaldo, the insurgent chief, reached Cavite from the interior, and soon after his arrival went on board one of the warships. He is working hard to gain over the rebels to the side of the Americans, with a view to active co-operation when Dewey's reinforcements arrive. MERE-MENTION. Captain Gridley, of Admiral Dewey'9 tlagship, has been retired on account of illness. In the warehouses and cars at Key West, there are supplies for 50,000 troops for six months. Congressman William V. Sullivan has been appointed United States senator from Mississippi, to succeed the late Senator Walthal. The Spaniards claim that after receiving arms from Dewey, the Philippine insurgent leaders have announced their allegiance to Spain. The story is hardly true. It is claimed by the Spaniards that the torpedo boat Terror, which was for some time at Martinique has run the blockade into Porto Rico. Admiral Camara is reported to be preparing to sail from Cadiz; but his destination is unknown. Roosevelt's rough riders left San Antonia, Texas, last Sunday for Tampa, in 100 cars. The officers expect to reach Tampa early this morning. Admiral Sampson was reported to be at Key West last Sunday waiting to convey the Cuban invasion expedition A Kingston, Jamaica, dispatch of Saturday, to the Londou Times says that Cervera was not at that time in Santiago ; but was in Central American waters. ? The Hong Kong correspondent of London Daily Mail, cables under dute of Monday as follows: "United States Consul O. F. Williams, who arrived here from Mauila on hoard the auxiliary gunboat Zafiro (formerly a British merchant steamer), tells me he does not think Admiral Montojo will be courtmartialed, and adds that he does not think the admiral should be, for he fought bravely. Mr. Williams says also that Aguinaldo, the insurgent leader, has his men at Cavite in a good state of discipline. They are provided with plenty of rifles and ammunition and are expected to do good service for the Americaus iu attacking Manila* The American troops from San Francisco are expected to arrive there in June. The Spauiards are trying to wean the Philippine rebels from I heir allegiance to the Americans. Captain General Augusti sent two priests to Aguinaldo, promising all kinds of reforms, including autonomy for the islands; but the insurgent chief declined to negotiate with them, reminding them that the same promises had beeu made before Aguinaldo made prisoners of two native deputations from the Manila government. The Spanish are appointing natives governors of provinces." The State Campaign.?The subcommittee of the State Democratic executive committee, who have in charge the arrangement of the schedule for the campaign meetings, have decided that meetings will be held in the following order: Orangeburg, George's, Charleston, Walterboro, Beaufort, Hampton, Barnwell, Bamberg, Sumter, Manning, Mouk's Corner, Georgetown, Kingstree, Florence, Marion, Conway, Darlington, Chesterfield, Bennettsville, Bishopville, Camden, Lancaster, Chester, Winnsboro, Yorkville, GafTuey, Spartanburg, Union, Newberry, Laurens, Greenville, Pickens, Walhalla, Anderson, Abbeville, Greenwood, Aiken, Edgefield, Saluda, Lexington, Richland. The dates could not be had, but the above will show how the meetings have been arranged. Before this schedule is effective it will have to be confirmed by the state committee, but they will hardly make any changes. fecial notices. (Quarterly Conference.

At one time in South Carolina it was an existing fact that the governor and all his associates in office were nominated for the various positions of trust, by a few hand-clapping bums, who were supposed to be representing a popular outburst of enthusiasm from the galleries, where the general public were sitting. Its real intention was to fool the people, and it did it. Have you ever seen anyone serenade a swarin a bees by beat- , ing on a tin pan ? This they claim detracts their attention and purpose from one thing to another and hastens them to settle. Just so it is with many merchants in various sections of the country. They try to attract your purpose from one thing to another and often so adroitly succeed as to cost the people hundreds of dollars. It takes 110 tin-pan-beating to attract the attention of the ladies of York county to out White Goods counter. Their judgement and our goods and prices are the controlling factors. i It takes no tin pan beating to attract the ladies to our Low Cut Shoes and Hosiery counters. It requires no tin pan beating to attract the men of York to iny Shirt and Underwear counter where the greatest value and latest styles can be had. Collars and Cuffs, and neckwear in end- , less variety. > It requires no tin pan beating to attract attention from other fashion patterns to the McCall Patterns. A wise and discriminating public has set its seal of 1 approval on the McCALL. All ' patterns at 10 and 15 cents. 1 None higher. It takes no tin pan beating to attract the ladies to our Corset ' Department. They know we . have what they want, and they 1 know others haven't. You should examine our Summer Coats and Suits. The price is right. H. C. STRAUSS. THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. County of York. : IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. | 7. K. Allison and J. B. Martin, as administrators of the estate of J. W.
