The loss to the entire plant is estimated at about $250, and the plant will be in operation again in a few days. The cyclone struck the woods on Mr. J. M. Spratt's place, one mile from Fort Mill, and tore down large trees; and, striking a house owned by a colored man named Williams, carried it away. Williams, his wife and seven children, who were in the house, were unhurt. The main part of the storm, a 'phone message states, went up the river, but part of the cyclone came by the edge of the town and blew down a number of outhouses. Some of these it picked up bodily and carried a long distance. Two miles north of Fort Mill the cy clone struck a house occupied by Charity Ingram, colored, and completely demolished it. It is remarkable that this woman and her six children also escaped hurt. There was more than ten minutes between the time the cyclone was first noted and its disappearance. The cyclone continued up the river and reached Mountain Island at 7 o'clock. Here several houses were blown down, among them being the residence of Mr. James Van Pelt. He and his wife and children, who were in the house, were not injured in the least. Outhouses and barns at Mountain Island were demolished, but there was no loss of life. ROLL OF CO. K.

Mayor Willis has appointed a new poard of health, as follows: Dr. R. A. Bratton, one year; J. F. Wallace, two years: W. W. Jenkins, three years; Geo. T. Schorb, four years; Dr. M. W. White for five years. The appointments were ratified by the council last Wednesday night. ? The Enquirer was pleased to receive on Wednesday morning with the compliments of Mrs. Brooks Inman, a large bowl of strawberries that were superior in size, flavor and even ripening to any that we have seen this season. The berries were raised by Mr. Inman, who is a recognized expert along this line, and we are advised that the bed from which they were gathered is quite an interesting sight. It is only about 15 by 30 feet in size, and from a single picking Wednesday morning it yielded 12 quarts of such berries as have just been described. ? The mayor of Yorkville is entitled to and should receive a salary. People wno nave noieu me nuse upputuuuii that the mayor has been giving to the affairs of the town during the past year, will generally approve this assertion. As matters now stand, the town council could not pay the mayor anything. At least it is very questionable as to whether it would have a legal right to do so. But the matter can be arranged. There is a statute which authorizes the qualified voters of any incorporated town to change their charter in any particular they might desire that is not inconsistent with the constitution and laws of the state. The qualified voters have a right to amend the present charter of the town so as to provide for a salary for the mayor if they see proper to do so. Something of the kind should be done. At least it looks as if it would be nothing but right to do something of the kind. ? Although The Enquirer has not at hand detailed information upon which to sum up the results of the past year s work by the Yorkville Graded school, It runs no risk in saying that there is right now a more general feeling of satisfaction with the institution than at any time since its establishment. Superintendent Jones has been able to manage with a remarkably small amount of friction, and taken altogether the work of all the teachers seems to have been very satisfactory indeed. Most of the patrons of the school have 1 been able to see material progress on the part of their children, and if any of them has serious complaint against the school, the matter has not come to our attention. There is a strong feeling that the school should continue as it has been with Superintendent Jones in charge, and his same efficient corps of teachers as assistants?Mr. Dobson, Miss Hughes, Miss Witherspoon and Miss Allison. So far as The Enquirer is aware, there is no demand for any changes, nor no disposition on the part of the board of trustees to make any without a strong demand. But notwithstanding the satisfactory manner in which the affairs of the school have been progressing, it is still very impor tant that the people of the town should give careful attention to the matter of filling the vacancies on the board of trustees with the best material at hand. The present members of the board are giving earnest and faithful attention to their work, and the people owe it to them to give them as colleagues citizens who may be depended upon to pursue the same intelligent and progressive course that they have blocked out. THE KAGING CATAWB^^Catawba river has been making a new record for herself this weeic. L'he oldest inhabitants living along her banks thought they had seen her do her worst in the years gone by: but it seems that they were mistaken. At 10 o'clock, Thursday morning, the flood was marking the trees, at Wright's ferry, at least four or five feet above the great freshet of 1865. The water commenced rising during Monday, and continued to go up steadily and surely until Thursday morning, when it reached its extreme height. That is the record at Wright's ferry. At 10 o'clock a noticeable subsidence set in, and by 6 o'clock in the evening the river had fallen some six or seven feet. No one has given a definite statement as to the highest stage reached; but from the best information obtainable, it must have been something like 27 or 28 feet. Mr. I. J. Costner, the ferryman, and his family, had an exciting experience. Mr. Costner's house is some 200 yards or more from the river, and about 22 feet above low water. It had been a rare thing for the river to get in his yard, and the rising water did not give him much uneasiness at first. During Wednesday, however, he realized that the flood meant business, and that if he would keep his ferryboat he must take care of it. As the water rose he guided the boat up toward his house, and by Wednesday evening he had it to the front door. With the water still rising, the family went to sleep, and about 2 o'clock Thursday morning was awakened by the rushing of the flood over the floors. By means of the telephone, the neighbors were advised of the sitution, after which Mr. Costner and family. together with Mr. and Mrs. Thorn dddui;, clliu u lmimy UL ncgiuco?ten people in all?gathered in the flat boat, chained it to a tree and awaited further developments. When daylight came they found themselves floating in water six or seven feet deep and a quarter of a mile from the nearest shore. Shortly after daylight, people began to arrive from every direction, in wagons, buggies, on horseback and on foot, until several hundred were collected. The flat was reached by means of a boat, which had turned over on the way, and the ladies, of course, were unwilling to risk it as a means of escape. It was decided, therefore, to remain in the flat until the water went down, and it was about 4 o'clock on i nursuay anernuuii ueiuie me ptii l> was finally rescued. Mr. Costner saved one cotv by floating it into the second story of his barn; but lost another, along with several pigs and a number of chickens by drowning. One pig floated down the river and came out on Mr. D. G. Stanton's place, a mile uelow. ^ Crops along the river at Wright's ferry and probably far above and below, were destroyed. Mr. D. G. Stanton telephoned Thursday afternoon, that from about thirty bushels of wheat sown on his place, he does not expect to harvest more than a peck. The Southern railway bridge across the Catawba, seven or eight miles above Wright's ferry, was wrecked at about 5 o'clock Thursday morning. Observing the rising flood, the railroad authorities tried to keep the bridge steady by stringing over it a number of bcrx cars loaded with pig iron. The central portion of the bridge is of iron, and the approaches of wood. The wood part gave way, and one of the box cars that stood half on wood and half on iron, broke half in two. One half went into the river and the other half remained on the iron bridge, coupled to the other cars. The northbound vestibule had passed over the bridge but a short time before it collapsed. The repairing of the bridge will require several days. Supervisor Gordon was in Yorkville yesterday. He said that the last definite information he had had from the county bridge over Catawba river, was through Mr. W. E. Gettys, of Clay Hill, who was at the bridge Thursday afternoon. The water was over the floor of the bridge, and from all appearance the central portion of the structure was Itsiaoswl r.* ??/io *v? u'oe* tha uu? u ruiram. xtuo ?? uo mv. opinion of people who saw it; but Mr. Gordon thinks they must have been mistaken. The approaches were badly damaged. There was no question of that fact. The Southern bridge, two miles below. stood the Hood successfully; but the G. C. & N. bridge, further down, was demolished, as was also the South Carolina and Georgia Extension bridge. This is according to unauthenticated reports. The extent of the damage to the two last named bridges cannot be stated definitely; but it is not probable that trains will be able to cross either of them for another week or more. Mounter Carp. Mr. J. L. Currence writes from Bethel. under date of May 21, that Mr. L. It. Woods recently caught in a trap at Craig's mill, on Crowder's creek, two carp, one of which weighed 17 pounds and the other 9 pounds. Mr. Currence enclosed in his letter a scale of each of the fish. The largest scale is one and three-eighths inches long and one and one-eighth inches broad. So far as Thk exqrutkit has any record the 17pounder is the largest carp that has ever been reported from the waters of this section. Indeed we have no record of the 17-pound fish having been equaled previously. LOCAL LACONICS. The Small Grain. The small grain crops are still looking unusually promising in all sections of the county, except where they were blown down by the high winds and heavy rains of the past few days. We Will Send The Enquirer For one year to two or more subscribers at 51.75 each, provided the two or more names are returned and paid for when the names are entered. The Enquirer will be sent from this issue to the first of January, 1902, for 51.16 in advance. Head In IIIm Bed. Manning C. Rodoey, a freight conductor on the Carolina and Northwestern railroad, was found dead in his bed in the Nicholson hotel, Chester, last Wednesday night. When Conduc- 1 tor Roddey failed to present himself during the day to take charge of his train, search was instituted for him. After awhile the searchers went to his room and climbing over the transom found him dead in bed. The coroner's jury said he died from natural causes. He leaves a widow and one child. When found he had been dead about 20 hours. I In H.O rimlno-nnir. A genuine ea.se of smallpox has^Teveloped at the county stockade in Catawba township. Dave Logan broke out with an eruption last Monday and on Wednesday Dr. Fennell identified ' the disease positively as smallpox. It , seems that upon the first appearance of the disease, Logan's fellow-convicts ( picked his pimples for him. As soon as the smallpox was identified as such, ] Logan was isolated from his fellows, and all the convicts were re-vaccinated. They had previously been vaccina- , ted once and so had Logan. There is ' reason to fear that the gang is in for J a round of smallpox and no escape, (iretna Green Affair. Charlotte Observer, Wednesday: Miss Pattie Olive, of Alex, and Dr. L. R. Black, of Blacksburg, were married ' at the Central hotel In Salisbury, last night, the ceremony being performed | by Rev. Dr. Atkins, pastor of the Methodist church of Salisbury. Dr. Black arrived in Salisbury at noon, and Miss Olive, who had been visiting relatives in Raleigh, arrived last night ^t 8.30. They went to the hotel, were married immediately, and left for Blacksburg on the 8.50 train. The bride is an attractive young lady and a sister of Mrs. J. M. Harry, of Charlotte, and attended the Presbyterian college in this city last year. The groom was graduated. with high honors, from the Southern Medical college at Atlanta last year, and is a young man of ability and promise. The Freshet in Broad River. All the news from different points up Broad river indicates an unusual stage of the water, the stream having been fed by unprecedented rains all along almost its entire course, and its sources in the mountains of North Carolina. In a telephone conversation with Lockhart yesterday, the reporter learned that the water was higher there than has been known since 1886. It reached its maximum height at about 1 o'clock Wednesday morning, and was estimated as being from 7 tp 10 feet above ' haft means an extraordinary flood higher up the stream. A part of the mill had to shut down a little while on ( account of the high water: but only ? for a few hours. Observers on the banks of the river saw floating down trees, trash, dead animals and other driftage. By 10 o'clock yesterday . morning the water had about subsided ( to the common stage.
