gonla, last Sunday night at 11 o'clock. Begonia is in Gaston county, N. C., just across the York line. His death was caused by apoplexy. Captain Patrick was a brother of the late Clin- ' ton Patrick, a native of Lancaster county, having been born near what is known as Doby's bridge, and at the time of his death was .72 years of age. He was a captain in the Civil war and | has been a well-known landmark of lower Gaston for many years, and was considered among the leading citizens of the county. He was also well- . known and highly esteemed throughout all of northern York. He leaves a widow and six children, five daughters and one son. All of the children, with the exception of one daughter, are married: They are Mrs. Robert P. I Craig, Mrs. Huffstettler, Mrs. Hender- 1 son, Mrs. Henry Ratchford, Miss Mattie Patrick and Mr. George R. Patrick. The funeral took place at Bethel on Monday afternoon and was largely attended. For Brutal Aiianlt. 1 There was a pitiable case before the magistrate's court in Yorkville, Mon- < day. During the morning two Negro < women brought into town a half starved Negro boy, whom they wanted taken care of. Major James F. Hart happened along and observed the boy's < condition. He was not only half starv- 1 ed; but was covered with bruises. In- ( quiry by the major aeveiopeu mm mc i boy had been beaten almost to death. 1 The women said that the beating had 1 been done by a Negro named Will Er- ( win, who lives on Mr. P. A. Jackson's ] place northeast of Yorkville. Upon 1 hearing of the brutal circumstances, J Major Hart caused a warrant to be issued for Erwln and arranged to pros- < ecute the case to the full extent of the law. During the afternoon the magistrate released Erwin on a bond given to secure his appearance at the next term of the court. In the meantime, 5 Major Hart had the boy washed, clothed decently and sent to the county j home. As the result of subsequent in- ( vestigatlons, Major Hart learned that ( the boy's bruises may .have been sus- * tained, in part, as the result of a fall < due to no fault of his own; but the < whole matter will be looked into care- ( fully before the proposed proceedings are abandoned. 1 Out at Becraheba. ( The services at Beersheba last week, in connection with the spring communion, which was dispensed on Sun- i day, were largely attended. The pas- J tor, Rev. S. H. Hay, was assisted by Rev. W. G. Neville, who preached Friday morning, Saturday morning and Sunday morning. The attendance grew with each service, and the congregation on Sunday was one of the largest seen at Beersheba for years. Rev. Mr. Neville preached three excellent sermons that evidently made a wide impression. The people who heard them have been talking much about them since. As a < v result of the unusually large congregation that was present on Sunday, the Beersheba people have come to the , conclusion that their church building should be enlarged. A member said to the reporter on yesterday: "The church has all along been too small for the congregation. It is frequently the case ? that there is room inside for only the women and children and such men as " are really anxious to participate in the services. On almost every preaching day. especially in good weather, a large number of men and boys remain outside during services, and the con- r gregatlon has about come to the conclusion that the church should be en- < larged without any more unnecessary delay."

J I'laiiN of Governor McSweeney. 1 August Kohn in News and Courier: The following paragraph appears in 1 the Newberry News and Herald, of which Colonel E. H. Aull is editor. "It J was stated in Columbia yesterday that Governor McSweeney would not be a candidate for re-election as governor, , but that he would in all probability be in the race for the United States senate. It can be definitely stated that j Governor McSweeney will not be a candidate for re-election as governor. . He has been strongly urged to make this race, as he has been to stand for , the senate. He thinks it entirely too premature to be talking about the matter, and at the proper time he will ' make a satement. It may be stated | that his personal preference is to quit ' politics, attend to his business and let J others have the offices if they wish J them. To Develop Cheat Catawba Falls. ? ?J. B. Duke, president of the American * Tobacco company, says a Charlotte 5 dispatch, has placed orders in New i England for machinery for a million < dollar cotton mill. Mr. Duke's plant < will be located at Great Falls, on the 1 Catawba river, in Chester county, S. < C. It will be known as Erwin Cotton I Mill, No. 2, and W. A. Erwin, of Dur- ' ham, will be president. The Dukes 1 now own in the south enough valua- ' ble water power to run a million cot- 1 ton spindles. J. B. Duke is quoted as saying that the only way to effect a trust of southern mills is to put up enough money to buy them all out. In . mill circles there is a rumor that the Dukes are seriously considering the | question of effecting a merger on their own account. The thirteenth quadrennial confer- . once of the Methodist Episcopal church. South, in session at Dallas, Texas, ten days previous, came to a close last Sunday. This conference has been one of the most interesting meetings of the kind ever held. The "war claim." which has agitated the surface for 30 odd years, it is thought, has been finally relegated to the rear. , One of the most radical steps ever tak- | en by the church was in establishing , the order of deaconesses, which was j accomplished. There was spirited de- . bate over the question and for a time , the opposition was.strong, but when , the final test came the minority report, favoring the measure, was adopted by , I an overwhelming majority.
