agricultural Implements, three fine
mules, worth from $150 to $175 each,
L and a good horse, were burned. The
^ total loss is estimated as being not
very far short of $1,000. '
Investigation Tuesday night and on
Wednesday morning, showed among
other things, some tracks leading to
? and from the barn. The circumstances
were such as to throw suspicion on a
Negro named Will Wilson. Wilson had
i been, seen at the fire. He came when
the flames were at their fiercest and
appeared to be rather indifferent to the
situation. Some of those who saw him
when he put in his appearance remembered
that his approach was not from
^ the direction indicated by the suspicw"
ioustracks. He was arrested, and upon
comparison of his feet with the
tracks, there appeared to be no doubt i
' that the tracks were his. <
*' The Negro had a -difficulty with Mr. i
Mason McGiil, son of Mrs. McGlll, on f
Tuesday morning, and this circum- j
stance furnishes a theoretical motive ]
for the burning of the barn. Upon exv
amlnatlon Wilson seemed disposed to t
treat the whole matter rather contemp- f
tuously. He did not answer questions
with much satisfaction and he was
committed to jail. ^
The reporter is Informed that the
people of the neighborhood were con- (
siderably stirred up over the matter, j
All the developments in the case were c
/ not generally known until Wilson was safe
in jail. Otherwise it is likely that
N there would have been a haifeing.
That is the way the talk is going; but
now that the Negro is in the hands of
the law, it is not probable that there
will be any attempt at violence. c

-Jbolonel Joseph W. Barnwell, of
Charleston, was in Yorkville last Wednesday
on professional business. He
was occupied in the clerk's office at a *
reference during most of the day; but *
in the afternoon he took a stroll a
around the town. Colonel Barnwell 1
was a citizen of this place for about 18 p
months during and after the war. His
family refugeed here in 1864, and after ?
he was wounded he came here also to
get well again. To the reporter he said ?
that the town looked prettyfamiliar.es- J?
pecially along Main street; there were ^
not a great many changes. On the side \
streets, and especially on King's
Mountain street, he noted wonderful
v changes for the better. He enjoyed his
expedition over the town. Colonel
Barnwell returned to Charleston Wed
nesday night. v

? A number of local Democrats, more
conspicuous for their party loyalty
than sound judgment on political matters,
gave up many hard-earned dollars s
on account of the McKlnley landslide 1
of last Tuesday. n
? Ed White, colored, was In Yorkvllle
Thursday, and he wants his ,
friends to know that he has a good job
* cooking at a lumber camp at Globe, N.
C. He says he likes the place so well a
and the people like him so well, that he t
will probably remain there forever. \
? The county board of commissioners
held their regular monthly meeting
last Wednesday. Some accounts were
audited, and petitions were considered
asking for help for outside poor, etc.; *
but none of the petitions were granted. v
* No business of public interest was
transacted.
? The roof of a cottage on Plnckney
street, occupied by Mr. J. H. Luca3,
caught fire last Thursday afternoon
from a spark from the chimney. A a
high wind was blowing at the time and 1
the situation was one of considerable uneasiness.
The telephone, however, <
? facilitated a prompt sending of the fire _
alarm, and the Queen City hose reel got
to the scene of danger in time to 1
check the flames before they could
make much headway. The entire Are
department answered the alarm. The 1'
damage was very slight; not amount?

marriage of Miss Maggie I'.
Jrerguson to Mr. Robert F. Smith, of
Columbia; took place at the home of
the bride's mother, Mrs. R. L. Fergu- "
son, In Yorkville, last Wednesday afternoon,
shortly after 5 o'clock. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. J. B. "
Bozeman, pastor of the Yorkville Baptist
church, In the presence of quite a
number of friends and relatives of the t
young people. After the ceremony the c
young people received the congratulations
of their friends and then took the
, southbound Carolina and North-Western
train for Columbia. Mr. and Mrs.
Smith were the recipients of quite a
number of pretty, useful and valuable 1
wedding presents. They will make
their future home in Columbia.
'* ? Mr. T. B. McClain has been advised i
of the shipment of the new dynamo 1
srevlously referred to. It will be here
ind in operation probably within the
lext two or three weeks. Just when it
vill come is as uncertain as the freight
jchedules from the Northwest On acjount
of frequent breakage, Mr. Mcclain
has been placing no confidence in
:he old dynamo for months. He has
seen running it only as a matter of
sublic accommodation. Sometimes the
ight has been fairly good and at oth;r
times miserable; but all along it has
seen well-worth' the rental that has
seen collected. For the past two
nonths the charge has only been half
:he contract price. The new dynamo is
>ne of the very best made. It is the
dnd that is being used by all the leadng
flrst-class lighting plants through>ut
the country. The dynamo now in
lse was bought under representations
>f this kind; but Mr. McClain did not
enow as much about such things then
is he does now. There is not the least' *
eason to doubt that upon the instal- ,
ation of the new machine, Torkvllle
vill have as good electric lights as is
:o be found In the whole country, and
it tne lowest ynce.
LOCAL LACONICS.
The Occasion of Conference.
On account of the annual conference
>f the Methodist church of South Caroina,
at Chester, on November 28-De:ember

railroad will sell round trip
:lckets at the rate of 5 cents a mile
rom Gastonia to Chester.
?111 Be Abandoned.
The proposed big Thanksgiving hunt
>ver the country between Yorkvllle
md Rock Hill will probably be abanloned.
Those who were most active in
heir efforts to organize it have been
learlng notes of alarm from the farmtrs
who have already gotten their
vheat and oats sowed, and they have
ibout decided that the scheme might
occasion considerable damage. As the
Ituatlon now stands, it is not likely
hat the big hunt will come off?at least
lot along the lines suggested.
