not feel especially encouraged with regard
to his ultimate recovery.
Mr. S. L. Hobbs has resigued his
position as Yorkville agent of the

will be succeeded by Mr. Cauthen, of

has many friends who will regret the

Atlanta Journal, Friday : Robert
Chappie, one of Atlanta's best amateur
ball twirlers, and the only pitcher
who has given the strong firemen's
team a throw-down this season, is
spending his vacation with friends in
Yorkville, S. C. The ball club of that
little city, knowing Chappie's worth as
a pitcher, has prevailed on him to join
their club while there on bis vacation.
He pitched yesterday for Yorkville
against the Blackstock team, one of
the strongest amateur clubs in that
section, and his team defeated them
by the score of 27 to 0. Chappie, besides
being a splendid ball player, is
a clever, affable gentleman, and his
many friends here will be interested in
his success in future ball games in
Yorkville. He will return to his home
in West End in a few weeks.
THE SUMMER SCHOOL.

terday afternoon.
Altogether there were 56 teachers in
more or less regular attendacce, and
most of them did hard, earnest work.
They express themselves as well pleased
with the intelligent and pains- (
taking efforts of Principal Hand and
Mr. McNary, his assistant, and the
general verdict is that the month has
been a very profitable one.
Superintendent of Education McMahan
came over to Yorkville from Rock
Hill Monday, and remained with the
school during the sessions of the day,
returning to Rock Hill Monday night.
To County Superintendent Carroll,
and others he expressed himself as <
well pleased with what had been accomplished.
The understanding is that such of
the teachers as have been attendiug
the school who have certificates to
teach will have the same renewed i
without being required to pass a new
examination. Those students who
have no certificates, but who desire
them, will be examined by the county
board today ou the work tbey have
been over during the past month, together
with some new questions on
other subjects. As to how many will
present themselves at this examination
we have no information.
THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
The county board of commissioners
held a special meeting in the office of
the supervisor yesterday for the purpose
of taking testimony with regard
to the necessity of the proposed new
road connecting the Armstrong Ford
and Charlotte roads, and also for the
purpose of further considering the
question of accepting Mr. Thos. H.
White's bid for 500 shares of York
county's stock in the Carolina and
Northwestern railroad.
It appeared that on accouut of ibe
absence of witnesses, etc., it was impracticable
to go iuto the road opening
question in a satisfactory manner and it
was decided to postpone further proceedings
until the next regular meeting,
unless, in the meantime, it should
he convenient for all parties concerned
to hold another extra session.
The sale of the Carolina and North
Western stock was discussed ; but up
to the time The Enquirer went to
press no definite action had been taken.
The board appeared to be in a
quandary. Not having auy information
as to the fate of the road in case
of a sale, and not feeling absolutely
certain as to whether Mr. White's deal
would be a go, without the assisiance
of York county's stock, it seemed inclined
to run the risk of losing the
$1,550 offered rather than be the means
of plunging the property iuto the uncertain
condition that appears to be
ahead of it. Final action depended
upon the answers to certain telegrams
that had been sent during the morning.
Commissioner Wilkerson suggested
the advisability of furnishing the public
with a detailed statement of chaingang
expenses. Supervisor Culp said
he was preparing such a statemeut
that was intended to cover a year's
operation, and so soon as the statement
is completed, it will be given to
the public.
The matter of letting out, to the
lowest bidders, contracts to furnish
the monthly supplies for tbechaingaug
was discussed. The discussion devel

furnished at very low prices; hut in
order to get rid of any sigu of partiality,
the board seemed to be disposed to
open the competition to all the supply
dealers of the county on terms that
would he equitable to all. No definite
action was taken during the morning;
but it was understood that something
would probably be done during the
afternoon.
Charged Witlfliurclary.
Foster Worthy, Will Worthy and
Ephraim Leech, all colored, were committed
to jail on the 6th instant, on a
warrant sworn out before Magistrate
John A. McMackin by Mr. W. A.
Dysart, charging them with a burglary
committed at Clover.

The Whortleberries.
The whortleberry crop in some sections
of the county, especially in the
Beersheba neighborhood, is good. It
will be some weeks yet before the berries
are ripe ; but they promise to be

Damaged by the Rain. I
County Commissioner Crawford went
up into King's Mountain township last
Monday to see about a tiling water- j
way that had been washed from under
a road leading from the King's Mouutain
road to Clover. Where the tiling |
had been there was only a great gully.
Captain Crawford said that the rains
of Jast week in that vicinity were '
very heavy aud that they tore up the j
fdrms considerably.
Escaped and Was Re-captured. (
A Negro convict, known as "Major," ,
made bis escape from the chaingang
last Saturday. He had just been
made a "trustv" on that day, and 1
when the big rain came up in the afternoon
he took his departure. The 1
guards were after him before he had J
been gone more than an hour, and fol- '
lowed bis trail with the hounds. Mr. ,
John Lindsay, however, happened to I
meet a strange Negro on the road, and !
when he made his report, Guard Devinney
made a detour ahead of the 1
dogs, and luckily ran upon the convict ,
just as he was emerging from a strip of '
woods. Major threw up his hands, |
pursuant to orders backed by a shot- i
gun, and returned to the camp, where 1
he received the usual reward for such 1
offenses?a good strapping.
STONE SPEAKS FUR JONES. ,
The Democratic Chairman Will Not Resign?Coming
Meeting.
Ex-Governor Wm. J. Stone, of Mis- 1
souri, who has been for sometime a
controlling figure in the Democratic
national committee, said in New York '
last Monday that there was uo truth 1
in the reports that Senator James K. 1
Jones, of Arkansas, intends to resign
the chairmanship of the committee 1
and that Senator Martin, 01 Virginia,
is likely to succeed him. '
"I have just received a letter from J
Senator Joues," said Mr. Stone, "and
he tells me that bis health is now 1
good. He is in a London suburb, '
where he will remain most of the sum- 1
mer. I expect to see him at home by (
September 1, and I am in a position to 1
make the positive statement that be |
will remain at the head of the Demo- 1
craiic National committee and will lose '
no time in getting to work after his re- '
turn." J
Governor Stone laughed at the report
that he had come to New York to '
see Augustus Van Wyck and other *
prominent New York Democrats to 1
make preparations for the meeting of '
the national committee in Chicago, *
July 20. 1
"I came here yesterday afternoon,"
he said, "and I havn't seen a New '
York Democrat, except one newspaper <
reporter. No preparations are needed
for the meeting of the uational com- <
mittee and, in any event, I would not -1
come to New York to do any prepar- I
iug. I am here to transact some busi- '
ness, and as soon as it is completed I 1
shall start for Chicago." '

HELPING THE SUFFERERS.
Governor Sayers Receives Reports From
the Texas Flood Districts.
Governor Sayers and corps of assistants
have spent the entire day in
working in behalf of the flood sufferers
up and down the Brazos river bottoms,
says an Austin dispatch of Monday.
Reports from the stricken district <
today are to the efTect that, the condition
of the flood sufferers is improving
very little. The governor received official
reports from "Yelasco, the southernmost
point, that everything was in
fairly good condition there with 22 feet i
of water prevailing. He has received
a telegram from the citizens of Hearue
stating that they had fought along as
long as tbey could, and would now |
have to ask public aid, that all the (
property in that section had been laid
waste, they were starving and homeless
and needed money, food and cloth <
ing. Their wants will be supplied at
once. County Judge Bell, at Bellvilie,
wired that there were 1,200 sufferers
in the county of Miles' Creek and
1,000 in the creek bottom in absolute
need. From numerous other portious i
of the Hooded districts similar reports
came pouring in.
Governor Sayers stated today to an 1
Associated Press correspondent that
the effort on the part of some to belit- j
tie the damage attendant upon the '
Hood was actuated by motives that he
could not understand ; that during his
long residence iu Texas, he had uever
seeu a worse calamity befall its people
and that from reports he had at his (
disposal he was led to believe that the ,
list of suffering would be very large.
MAKING THINGS RIGHT.
French Government After the I'roxccutors
of DreyfiiH.
It is rumored that as a result of the
revelatiou of the inhumau cruelly
practiced upon Dreyfus while on
Devil's island, M. Lebon, the minister
who was responsible for the orders
sent to M. Deuiel, while in charge of
the penal settlement where Dreyfus
was confined, will be proceeded against,
the government not confining its action
to yesterday's dismissal of Deniel, says
a Paris dispatch of Monday.
M. Bertillon, the handwriting expert
who testified before the court of
cassation that Dreyfus was the author
of the bordereau, still remains at the
head of the anthropometric department
of the perfection of police; but
has been deprived of his official duties.
Baron Baulny, author of the aristocratic
promoters of the demonstration
against President Loubet, at Auteuil,
has been pardoued.
It is understood that M. Loubet also
desired to pardon Baron Cbristiani,
who made the assault on him ; but the
cabinet decided that this was quite

The Gazette de France today publishes
the report which the prefect of
police presented to the government
March 29, on the Orleanist party. It
says the League of Patriots and the
auti-Semite league were in close relations
with the Duke of Orleans, who
sent 5,000 francs to M. Deroulede and
large suras to Deputy Jules Guerin.
Altogether the royalists are said to
have expended 300,000 francs in getLing
up the Neuilly barracks fiasco.
Prof. Syveton, treasurer of the
League of the French Fatherland, has
been suspended from his duties at the
college of Rheims for attempts to incite
an anti-Dreyfus agitation at Rennes.
According to the same authority
Comte Boni de Castellane also subsidized

Sherlfl Long Kills Deputy Gallman.
Columbia State: Sheriff John G.
Long, of Union, on last Saturday, shot
an instantly killed his trusty deputy,
Mr. J. G. Gallman. The awful affair
happened about 7 a. m., and in three
hours the coroner's jury had rendered
a verdict of justifiable homicide. From
Lhe. statemeut of the sheriff, Gallman
went to the jail this morning and obtained
the keys to make his usual .
round of inspection. Sheriff Long in- ]
quired pleasantly what Gallman would I
lo during the day. The latter replied, ,
'None of your business" in an angry ,
way, totally unexpected. Sheriff Long 1
nade some reply and Gallman drew !
lis pistol. The sheriff, knowing the ;
iangerous temper of his deputy, step- i
jed behind the door, secured his shot j
jun and poured two loads of buck shot ,
pto Gallman's body. One load took j
;flect in the side, and the other in the <
hroat, tearing great holes in the poor '
nan's body and killing him instantly. ]
fhe two men had been associated for <
bur years and were good friends. }
jfallman was drinking, it is said, and j
hat caused his death. Friday night
ie is said to have been on a debauch
ind this probably made him irritable. 1
The Malt Extract Question.
Spartauburg Herald : The state
xmrd of control adjourned last Saturlay.
The malt extract question, which :
uay be included in the beer troubles
>f the board, remains yet unsettled.
Malt extract of various brauds and
iinds is being sold by druggists
throughout the state. Malt extract, '
is usually advertised, is a medicine or 5
i tonic which builds up the system
generally. It is not advertised as a
beverage, but nevertheless some beer
lispeusers have complained that its
sale had materially interfered with the
sale of beer, their contention being
that the various malt extracts are a
Grst-class article of beer and conse- |
quently should not be allowed to come
in competition with them. Numbers
of conscientious druggists who have
been selling the malt preparation have
asked the board of control to construe
whether such articles come within the
prohibition present in the dispensary '
law. The board has asked the attorney
general to pass upon the question
from a legal standpoint, and Mr. Bellinger
and Mr. Guuter are searching
authorities to see what really is the
situation so far as the law is concerned.
It is a knotty question whether
these extracts are a beverage or a medicine.
Many other proprietary articles
come uuder the same category and the ,
attorney general wishes to give the
question the most thorough consideration
before rendering an opinion. It
may turn out after all that a jury and
not the legal department of the state
government will have to decide wheth- {
er the extracts or any other preparations
have more alcohol in them thau
the law allows as far as beverages are !
concerned.

"Every Crow's Young
One's the Blackest."
I AM thoroughly convinced of the fact
that every agent who sells Mowing
Machines claims that his is the test and
that his Machine has features not to be
found on others. I frqely admit that the
"feature" claim is correct; but stop right
there, because I am prepared to prove by
disinterested witnesses that no machine
on this market or any other, compares
with the Genuine Buckeye as a grass
cutter or for durability, and none surpasses
it for light running.
Now, Another Point. *
The Buckeye Mower was invented and
natented by Lewis Miller in 1857. I
have a drawing and description of the
original model on which the letters of
patent were granted, and am prepared to
prove that there is not a feature on any
mower offered today that is of REAL
VALUE that was not on the original
Buckeye, and can also prove by the
machine itself that the machine for 1899 is
thoroughly up-to-date, yet at the same
time the original plan is adhered to.
There are Buckeye Mowers in use today
that were sold 30 years ago. Mr. J. Ernest
Lowry, of Yorkville, used a Buckeye last
season sold by me to him in 1889. Ask
him how it did the work. No Buckeye
has failed to do good work in York county.
Others have left pea fields looking
more like a brush had been dragged over
them than a mower.
