The busy lawyer had just fipished drawing up the deed and was about to c? slip oo his coat and go over to the city hall when the door of his office opened 1 and a man with a copper-riveted smile Y( bowed calmly. pit "This is Mister Green, is it not?" 1 he inquired softly, and drew from be- I c hind him a little flat black case with Y< nickel-plated clasps. tal "Yes," replied the lawyer lingering I s ' * 1 nit at tne ena 01 ms ufB&. r..

FAVORS DISARMAMENT. lonel Jack Chlnn, of Kentucky, on the Pistol Habit. Colonel Jack China said to a New >rk World correspondent anent the jtol carrying habit: "The only place in the Union where lo not have to carry a gun is New >rk city. I feel safe there and never ce my pistols out of the valise when itrike that town. I always carry a itol in Chicago and other towns, it I am opposed to the practice. It not a pleasant one, and it is not good the state. If they would let me aw up a law I would stop it. "How would I do it? In the first ice, I would legalize duelling; but would make it a capital onense ior o men to fight within 24 hours after quarrel. That would make them ep on the proposition, and there mid be very few fights. I would 10 make it an offeuse punishable by ) years in the penitentiary for any in to carry a concealed weapon or aw it in a public place. We have a v here against carrying weapons ; t it is not effective. "I want to say that 99 cases out of 100 where a man is killed in a street ht here it is nothing more than asisination. One man has everything bis side and the other has nothing. "Do you suppose I have been corntable during the past week or so, th some one liable to shoot me down y minute, as they did Bill Goebel ? >t a bit of it. But I want to say it I would not kill a man for almost ything on earth. The newspapers this country have painted me as a & man, ready and eager to make >uble at any time ; but that is wrong, lave a heart in my bosom and love my fellowmen. I would rather go my own grave than cause some >ther or wife to weep over the grave a sod or husband killed by my nd."While Colonel Chinn thus spoke in apparent sincerity, he had his "house n," "Old Bits," a .45 Colt stuck ine the waist of bis trousers, a .38 kith & Wesson in his hip pocket and pring knife with a blade loDg enough kill an elephant in bis trousers' cket.

Irresponsible Editor Receives a Well Merited Rebuke. itoriul In Carolina Spartan. The Orangeburg Times and Demoit severely censures Senator McLaubecause "be seems to have a strong 11 with Dollar Mark HaDua, and as uatural consequence, he is in high ror with President McKinley, who owned body and soul by the great odler." The Democrat is also soregrieved because Rev. A. J. S. Thorneditor of The Baptist Courier, reved the appointment of census su .u:. rvisor ior uus uiamvi. mo vuij jection to Mr. Thomas was that uator McLauriu favored his appointint. The editor thus eloses: "He i traitor to his people who honored n with a seat in the Uuited Slates ?ate. But the day of reckouing is Ding." Such unwarranted statements as the uve tend to make disloyal citizens, e teaching of such doctrines give e to more lawlessuess and riots in r state than all other causes combinBecause Senator McLaurin is ;ndly with the administration and is speaking terms with leading Repubans, he is brauded a traitor. If he is raitor, so are Tillman, Congressman ilson, Congressman Stokes aud the lole crowd. We like Congressman jkes because he has a strong pull in t postoffice department.; we like Couissman Wilson because he "stands with Uncle Sam" and generally :ures from a Republican admiuistrau what he wants for bis district, uator Tillman has grown much wiser d broader since he has associated in nost friendly way with leading Reblicau senators and heads of de rlments. They are to be commendfor their policy and conduct which ? altogether honorable. What they in their way for their constituents, uator McLaurin does in his way. e suggest to the editor who penned it article to take off the head of his per and call it "Behind The Times d Autocrat." HAMPTON FOR BRYAN. '8 the Democratic Leader Will Win on Anti-Imperialism. The following interview with Genii Wade Hamptou appeared in The >ws and Courier last Tuesday : "I u't think it worth while to raise the rrency issue in the coming camign. There is no doubt about it it the great majority of the people the state are with Bryan and his ver views. Congress, in the eud, s to settle that question, and the rrency question should not be agied now. While I do not agree with yan in his fitiaucial views, he is a >st remarkable man and he issquareou au anti-imperialistic platform lich should be the chief issue. Uptbat issue I believe Bryan can win d I shall vote for him. Upon that ue all Democrats can unite and heal i differences in the last campaign, lich resulted in the election of Mcnley. Bryan would certainly treat i south with fairness, which cunt be expected from any Republican ministration. Bryan seems to be iuiug strength in the north. PennIvania Democrats have already deired for him and I believe New York :mocrats will do the same thing, iperialisni, if carried out, will be the uth knell of this old republic and it issue is now of far greater importce than the financial question. I | believe we should send a strong delegation to the convention pledged to an ; anti-imperialistic policy. They will certainly be for Bryan, whose anti-imperialist views have made him strong> er than ever in the south, and are increasing his strength in the whole ? country.

CHESTER?The Lantern, February 13: Friday evening, Charley Stroud was shot in the neck and shoulder by John Gillespie. The latter came to town under escort and surrendered. He claimed that he was'violently attacked and shot in self defense. The trouble grew out of a dispute about a fence. Their home is near Knox station. We do now know whether Stroud's wounds are dangerous or not. Several deaths have happened about which we have very little information. Mrs. Ballard died Friday and was buried in the cemetery. Willie, the 7-year-old son of Mr. Edward Grant, of Armenia, died Saturday night of yellow chills, aod was buried at Armenia. A child of Mr. A. A. Godfrey, of Eureka mills, died this morning and will be buried in Evergreen cemetery. It was always a very delicate child, aod was some 18 months old. Mr. T. J. Cunningham, supervisor of census for this district, is receiving mauy inquiries about the appointment of enumerators, and some no doubt do not understand why appointments are not made. He is acting upon orders from headquarters. He goes to Atlanta today to meet the assistant director. When he returns he will send out the required "test schedules," a blank prepared for applicants to fill out, which will serve as a kind of examination to determine their fitness. When these have all been returned to him he will make the appointments. Of course be will not wait for any that may not be returned within a reasonable time. CLEVELAND?King's Mountain Oracle, February 13 : Mr. Charley Ford and Miss Delia Mullinax were happily married at Grover last Tuesday. Both the contracting parties live at Crowder's Mountain mill. The wife of Mr. Hob Ellis, of near Crocker, died on Sunday morning and was buri d in the cemetery at Autioch Baptist church on Monday. The deceased was a daugh ter of Rev. Mr. Mullinax, a Baptist preacher at Grover. GASTON?Gastonia News, February 13: Miss Lou Bradley, of King's Creek, S. C., spent several days visit ing relatives in and near Gasiouia last week, returning home Saturday. Yesterday the body of Mrs. Mary E Lynn was brought over from Charlotte, where she died of 'chronic hepatitis Sunday, and was taken to Crowder's Creek for burial. She was a daughter of Mr. Will Forbes. The secretary and treasurer of the Trenton mills tells us that he is expecting a man to arrive in a few days to make a survey of the site for the new Trenton mill, and prepare plans and specifications for the same. The main building is to be 54x176 feet and two stories high, and is to be equipped with the latest, upa.i?o moiihinprv. The contract for the tenement houses has already been awarded, and work will begiu as early as spring opens. Yesterday morning at 1 o'clock, Mr. William Rankin died at his home at New Hope church, after a brief illness of only 10 days, of pneumonia. Mr. Rankin was one of the deacons in New Hope church for many years, and a good man who was well thought of by all who knew him. The deceased was the father of our townsmen, Messrs. Wylie T. and E. J. Rankin. He was 57 years of age. The funeral services were held today at 11 o'clock by the pastor, Rev. R. A. Miller, at New Hope, and the interment took place at New Hope cemetery. Saturday afternoon, Sergeant Lee K. Davis, of the Thirteenth U. S. infantry, who has seen about eight months in Uncle Sam's service in the Philippine islands, arrived in the city after six weeks' traveling. Mr. Davis talks very interestingly in regard to the war in the Philippines and the Filipino people. He was discharged ou the 24th of October, and for two months be was in the hospital at Manila suffering from malarial fever. On the 28th of December last, he sailed on the transport, City of Pekin, for the United States by way o( China and Japau, arriving at San Francisco on the 29th of January. He says he was offered $675 over and above bii regular salary to bold up bis band at a token tbat he would re-enlist and remain in the Philippines, and tbat be would be appointed second lieutenant of his company; but says be doesn't want any more of the Philippine war for his part. Fortunately he received no wounds while there. When be gets stronger be will give our readere some interesting reading matter on the Philippine war and the Filipinos. LANCASTER? Review, February 14 : Messrs. Knight and Mackorell, Lancaster's well-known brokers, will open a branch office in Yorkville at an early day. They are also making arrangements to establish bottling works there, aod will manufacture soda water, ginger ale, etc. A little daughter of Mr. Simon Bruce, of the Heath Spring's section, about 4 years old, I was severely burned some days ago. She had stooped to get something from under the kitche.n stove, and in rising she fell backward into a vessel of boiling water which had just been taken off the stove. Her injuries are very serious. Interest in the Lancas ter postmastership continues unabated. The friends here and elsewhere of the several applicants for the office are doing all in their power to land their particular candidate. Our senatorial delegation in Washington is not united in its support. Senator Tillman is championing the cause of Mrs. Foster, WiJiic ocuatui lutuaui iu 10 oup^ui uug Mrs. Nauce. Mr. Clark, one of the Republican applicants, is said to be endorsed by Webster and Mark Hanna. Mr. Swaringen, the other Republican aspiriDg for the position, is said to have Senator Pritchard, of North Carolina, at bis back.

YORKYILLE FOR Hprp Ts Pit And Gc GET UP A CLUB Fl Two High Grade Bug of Furniture, Sewii Watches, Silvert TITIS is the season during- which the people of this section generally make selection of the newspaper they expect to read during the following year. We want THE ENQUIRER to go as a TWICE-A-WEEK visitor to every home in York county. With the assistance of intelligent and trustworthy friends in the different localities, we know it can be gotten into many homes to which it is not now going. This assistance is of much value to us, and it is our purpose to pay for it most liberally, in proportion to the service rendered. The propositions we make heroin are to all responsible individuals, in each and every locality. There is no monopoly in the matter. Because an individual returned the name of a certain subscriber last year, is no reason why he should have any claim upon that subscriber this year. Because one individual may already be at work in a given neighborhood, is no reason why another should not also canvass in that neighborhood. Every clubmaker is entitled to get subscribers whenever and wherever he or she may be able to get them, and upon compliance with the conditions herein stated, have them counted. Our plan of compensation to clubmakers this year is on the same line as heretofore?a competition for TWO LEADING PREMIUMS to be awarded for the TWO LARGEST clubs, and a third leading premium for the largest club of NEW SUBSCRIBERS. Alter that the value of the premium is in proportion to the number of names returned. TU r> T n n /I i n ry> Prinm i n m a HiC UCCLUllig X 1 UJJ-ii. u mo.

For the NEXT LARGEST CLUB, we will give the choice between theabove articles left after first choice. For the LARGEST CLUB OF NEW SUBSCRIBERS we will give the premium which is left after the first and second choice has been made. The handsome suit of furniture may be seen at the store of W. B MOORE A CO., and the buggies in the warerooms of the respective manufacturers in Y'orkville and Rock Iiill. In addition to the competitive premiums mentioned above, we also otl'er various other premiums for clubs containing specified numbers of names, and propose to deliver the premiums whenever the numbers specified are | returned and paid for. Upon securing one premium?a wiucu or scwms inuunut, ,-uj ? the elubmaker will be ut liberty to try for the same thint; again, or for anything else on the list, and if in the aggregate, by the 7TH DAY OF MARCH, 11KX), he shall have succeeded in returning and paying for the largest number ot NEW NAMES, he will be entitled to the premium for the LARGEST CLUB OF NEW SUBSCRIBERS just the same as if he had not previously taken other premiums.

The best and most perfect photographs are the results of experience and not experiments. I do all of my developing, retouching and finishing, thereby obtaining the best possible results. As Far As Prices Are concerned, you need not worry yourself along that score. I know that my prices are reasonable and you will agree ' with me when I tell you what they are.
