The reporter asked Mr. Graham ed as to the bear story published in The he Enquirer of Wednesday from the ^ Charlotte Observer.

He ran a catamount several races up in the Torrence neighborhood as near wanes, a lew years DacK, ana it rs. is probably the same animal that is It- now again making known its presence. on Reason of the Irregularity. aI For a time or two, subscribers of to The Enouirer living along the line of the Southern railway between Chesly> ter and Charlotte, received their paJjjj pers within a few hours after they ;t_ were printed.

Carolina Interstate and West Indian Exposition company is now a duly in> corporated company, the charter hav- n( ing been issued today. It is now ready ls for business and authorized to enter ip into contracts. The enterprise is le- q gaily launched. The preliminary stages have been passed and the actual ccn- s? struction work will begin very shortly, ' for the project is no longer ixv the spec- p( ' ulative stage; but is an actual going lt concern. It is unnecessary to review w the steps thus far taken, all of which a] are so recent and have been so closely S ' followed by the public that they are A thoroughly familiar. It is well to re- jj| mark, however, that rarely has an enterprise like this been conceived and ' set going in the short period and with fl, ; as few discouragements as the ja 1 Charleston exposition has passed. jc There is in this consideration not only er ; a great satisfaction, but also a splen- Qf i did promise. H They Are Helping the Farmers. til For the past six or eight years there ? has been a cotton seed oil mill at 1 Greenville. The mill also owns and operates a ginning system: Several years ago the company joined the trust. Last summer a number of citizens living in and around Greenville, concluded that at that they would chip in and build an- te other mill and also operate a ginfiery- vl They had their plant ready for business when the season opened last month. The old concern declared war at the outset, so far as the ginning business was concerned, and advertis- p, ed to gin cotton at 75 cents a bale and include bagging and ties in the price. The new concern met the cut, and as a T result both plants were kept busy, cotton coming to them from a distance of ! 15 to 20 miles around. A few days ago at the trust people cut the price to 50 0,< cents a bale for ginning, bagging and ties, and advanced the prl,ce of seed from 30 to 32 cents a bushel. The new concern met the cut and advance, and ( it is said that the end is not yet in sight. . se A Heroic Engineer. vi Columbia Journal: An engineer on the Spartanburg branch of the Southern railway, did a fine piece of work on Sunday afternoon, and the people who witnessed the act say he deserves much sc credit for his achievement. He saved a 7.3 human life. The train was coming from Asheville on Sunday afternoon, and as the engine passed the one mile post, near the cemetery, the engineer noticed, a Negro woman on the trestle ~ further down the track. The whistle blew and the bell rang; but the woman did not move. She stood on the center of the trestle, and she appeared to be T* unconscious of the danger. The engi- . neerhad not time to lose. He applied the , brakes and reversed his enjgine, and ] the train came to a standstill about three yards from the woman. The = woman was taken off the trestle and the train proceeded on its way to the depot. The Negro was drunk and it's ? a question as to whether the woman intended suicide or if she was too drunk to know anything about her surrounding condition. The name of the 0 < heroic engineer could not be learned. * T. Ezell Thackiiton Pardoned. Columbia dispatch of October 9: The governor today pardoned T. E. Thack- A ston, a young white man of Greenville, who was convicted in 1897 of manslaughter and sentenced to the peni tentiary for five years. Thackston is a member of a prominent family and -wis a young man about 25 years old. He \ was, however, wayward and got into toi a great deal of trouble. The crime for which he was convicted was the killing of a mulatto woman with whom he beInfotiiotoH aoomq tn i be thoroughly penitent, and during his -service as a convict his conduct has been good. The penitentiary directors T' recommended to the governor that the t pardon De granted. Judge Watts, who sentenced him, said that In view of his good conduct he would not oppose the xi exercise of executive clemency. Thack- A( ston has been employed on the state pa farm at Hagood and wrote a pathetic J10 letter to the governor, In which he ? said that If the serious errors of his youth were forgiven he would try to lead ua a better life. His mother also wrote of the governor in behalf of her boy, and his sister also added her plea for his m) pardon. Thackston called upon the ' governor today after his pardon. He ba was accompanied by his sister and ye both were profuse in their thanks to the governor for his action. The Dance In Greenville. Greenville special of Wednesday to ( The State: A hot supper with Its usual tragic accompaniment, has added an- ^ ^ other murder to the long list which mars the history of our county. The theatre where the tragedy occurred was on this occasion the house of John Young, four and one-half miles from town, on the Pelham road. The actors were Ed Simmons and Stephen Ray, O and the victim was Ray. On Tuesday k_. night a hot supper was given at his "c house by John Young, which seems to have been largely attended by the Ne- > groes in the neighborhood. The usual concomitants of these entertainments are dancing, liquor in too great abundance and consequent riot and frequent g^ murder. These elements were not lack- 01 ing Tuesday night, and too great in diligence in intoxicants produced the in usual results in unduly excited passion. ^ The direct cause of the trouble seems to have been a rivalry between Sim- ne mons and Ray for the honors of a fo dance with a certain one of the swar- IT* thy damsels. Subsequently, about 1 o'clock yesterday morning, and while Ray was talking on the porch, Sim mons came up and pushed him off. Ray t then advanced with a knife in his inds towards Simmons, who told hlr ) keep off. Ray continued to advanc< hen Simmons drew a piste* and she lm, the bullet entering the body jus bove the heart and severing an arterj he wounded man made a few step >rward and fell dead.
