ROCK HILL AND VICINITY.
ConttabU Jenkins Making It Warm For
a the Tigers.
OoiTMpoodettce of the Yorkrill# Enquirer.
Rock Hiia, July 4.?The vigorous
prosecution of the Illicit whisky dealers
by State Constable J. H. B. Jenkins.
and the prosecuting attorney, W.
M. Dunlap, Esq., is growing interesting,
and is stirring up the whisky element
as they have never been aroused
before in this section.
Hi. El McGraw was tried last week
by a Jury on the charge of transporting
contraband whisky. The result was a
mistrial, the five Jurymen standing,
four for conviction and one for acquit- |
tal. When the case was called for a
second trial, McGraw asked for a
change of venire, and the case will pro
bahly be heard before Magistrate Glenn
of Ebeneser township.
S. M. Cash was given a hearing last
week also, on the charge of storing
\ and keeping in possession contraband
w hisky, and was held under a $200
bond for his appearance before the
higher court. At the hearing of Cash,
Mr. P. A. Workman, a well known farmer
living in this city, appeared and
laid claim to 20 of the 33 pints of whisky
the officers had found in Cash's
house. The case in which it had been
shipped showed that the goods had been
shinned to Workman, and he explained
tc the court that he had ordered me
A whisky to treat his farm hands on the
4th of July. He said it had been his
custom for several years to treat them
on Christmas day and on the "fourth,"
and not allow them to drink any when
they were busy on the farm. Upon this
admission of ownership, a warrant
was at once sworn out for Mr. Workman
on the charge of storing and
keeping whisky in possession for an
unlawful purpose. He was released on
his own recognizance to appear for a
hearing when called un.
These proceedings have caused no
% litble uneasiness among the "tiger"
people and it comes from very good
authority that they are making threats
of violence against Constable Jenkins
and the prosecuting attorney, W. M.
Dunlap, unless they let up In their vigorous
prosecution of these cases.
Neither Mr. Dunlap nor Mr. Jenkins
are paying any attention to these
threats and are not at all apprehensive
for themselves. Neither have they the
slightest intention of "letting up" in
th?> prosecution until they have pushed
the matter to the bitter end. Furthermore,
they say the fun has Just !>e-^un
and other parties, not in any way connected
with any of the present eases,
muay be called on for a hearing before
the summer campaign ends. The case
against Workman will probably be
heard Wednesday.
ALONG THE RURAL ROUTES.
Life Among the People Reported By
the Mail Men.
Clover No. 1.
Many of the crops along this route
have suffered seriously for rain.
<">' thp old corn has been
laid by.
There Is very little grass to be seen
now: but the effect of It on the fields
Is still noticeable.
Wheat has been almost a complete
failure.
Mr. L A. McGlll has sold eighty
bales of cotton.
Miss Ida Alien left on Saturday for
Greer's to spend two weeks with her
sister, Mrs. Blanton.
? Miss Callle McCarter is visiting her
sister. Mrs. T. H. Allen, on Clover
No. 2.
The Bowling Green Knitting mill shut
down last Saturday for Its usual summer
vacation of two weeks.
Mr. David W. Forbes of Fairmont.
111.. Is visiting his brother, Mr. J. D.
Forbes.
King's Cresk No. 1.
There was rain around this entire
route yesterday. It was light in some
^ places; but It has been of much benefit
to the crops.
Two negroes, one named Gibb and
the other named <1111, fell out about an
umbrella at a negro church Sunday.
Gibb shot Gill: but the wound is not
serious. .
It is understood that the railroad
people have promised to build a depot
at this place soon. The people Interested
will welcome the Improvement.
Messrs. Pursley & Faulkner, who
have been running a saw mill at this
* place for several years past, have arranged
to make considerable Improvements
in their plant.
The Dostmaster here has received no
orders as to the observance of tne
Fourth of July holiday, and the rural
mall will go out today as usual.
Filbert No. 1.
The patrons of this route are showing
their appreciation of the dally mail
se.-vice by giving pretty good attention
to the roads.
The crops generally have been well
> worked and are In good condition. The
prospects north of Adair's Ferry road
are pretty fair: but from L. H. Castles'
store down to J. R. Hogue's and
back through the cotton belt, the sltua.lon
is not very encouraging for this
time of year. In this last named locality
there has been very little rain for
five weeks. With a few exceptions old
corn is a complete failure.
Beamguard Bros, have seventeen
acres of old corn that is fine and about
v as much late corn that is also promising.
Mr. S. B. Beamguard says they
have the best prospect for corn that
they have ever had. Messrs. J. J. McOarter,
J. B. Wood and D. M. Parrott
have some good corn of late planting,
and so also have Messrs. E. M. Walker.
R. N. Whitesides. M. S. Carroll, W. L.
Caldwell and D. C. Clark. When asked
about his corn crop, Mr. E. M. Walker
said: "It is mighty poor I think: but
the neighbors say it Is fine, and speaking
comparatively, I reckon it is: but
If I get more than half a crop I will
*. be surprised."
Mr. J. M. Stroup on this route has
one of the largest farms in the country.
He has something like 2,000 acres
In a single block, and altogether he
has between four hundred and five
hundred acres of cotton that will compare
favorably with any to be seen in
this section.
Mr. John R. Hogue visited his
daughter. Mrs. J. Milton Stewart in
Rock Hill last week.
80UTH CAROLINA NEWS.
| ?At the annual meeting of the
1 board of visitors of the Citadel lust
W week, a resolution was adopted de<
taring all the positions in the tacully
vacant on July 1 next. Heretofore
members of the faculty have been removable
only for cause, and on a twothirds
vote of the board of visitors.
The statute relating to the matter was
amended at the last session of the
? general assembly so as to provide that
members of the faculty might be removed
on a majority vote of the board
of visitors. The object of the resolution
Just adopted by the board of visittors
is to open the way to such
changes as may seem desirable.
? A special from Spartanburg says
that a serious wreck occurred at the
brawley street crossing on the Southern
railway at 1 o'clock Sunday morn- |
ing. Through freight No. 52, runv
nlng in two sections, came together
while in the city of Spartanburg near
the crossing, and a dozen freight cars,
laden with coal, and one engine were

^ ?Columbia State. July 4: The annual
convention of the rural letter
carriers of South Carolina opened its
session in this city at Brown's hall,
opposite the postoffice yesterday afternoon.
There were about twenty
delegates present. The session lasted
about two hours. The organization
for the ensuing year was perfected
with the election of the following officers:
D. C. Hayden of Orangeburg,
president; M. J. Kyzer of Lexington,
vice president; G. P. Teague of Simpv
sonville, secretary; J. E. Johnson of
Laurens, treasurer. After the election
of officers considerable business of a
routine nature was transacted. The
convention will resume its session at
9.30 o'clock this morning.
? The Atlanta and Charlotte division
of the main line of the Southern
railway was thrown out of Joint last
Friday by a small washout between
Harbin and Fort Madison stations a
few miles south of Westminster.
Chango creek rose suddenly, carried
the trestle away and threw several
hundred yards of track out of allignment.
Train No. 36, bound north,
was held up at Toceoa, Ga., for twelve
hours or more. Southbound trains
got around the wreck by going by
way of Anderson and Belton. The
southbound fast mail got to Atlanta
by taking the Seaboard at Greenwood.
All the freight trains on the
division were held up wherever they
stood when orders reached them.
The trestle has been repaired and the
trains are now moving on schedule.
? Carolina Spartan: Last year there
was one field of cotton in the Cherokee
neighborhood that was attacked
by anthracnose. This destroys the
boll but does not hurt the root and
foliage. The same field where It appeared
last year may be injured this
year If planted In cotton. No spraying
will stop the disease. The best
plan is to sow the field down in small
grain and follow with peas two years.
D. D. Gaston In passing Landsford
station last Friday had a few squares
handed to him by some farmer, that
had dropped off. They had been
punctured by some Insect which caused
them to drop. None of the Insects
were sent with the forms. It Is reported
that a struige bug has appeared
in the country around Monetta
in Aiken county, that is said to
be very destructive to the cotton crop.

been destroyed. The bug resembles
the boll weevil but is not
quite so large. The stalks are stripped
of all the squares, leaving the
plant seemingly In good condition.
Governor Heyward has directed an
expert from Clemson college to Investigate
the matter.
? Columbia Record, yesterday: The
attorneys In the Pickens dispensary
case who are Interested In closing the
dispensary in that county, have filed
their return and W. Boyd Evans of
this city, who has been employed by
the dispensary people, has received a
copy. The return denies that the
election was Illegal and presents an
affidavit from the county supervisor to
show that 1,162 names, or over onefourth
of the whole voters of the
county had filed a petition for an election.
On the vote being cast it is
shown that not even that many voted
?the votes being 735 against the dispensary
and 240 for the dispensary.
There was no objection raised at the
time as io the legality of the election
and affidavits are presented from a
large number of the managers to
show that the election was conducted
legally and that no one was allowed
to vote unless he was duly registered
on the managers' books. The
hearing will be held before Chief Justice
Pope Wednesday on whether a
writ of mandamus should be Issued
requiring the dispensaries to keep
open. The ca e has excited consideraole
comment and has been the cause
of a number of resolutions passed by
prohibitionist organizations throughthe
state. It Is stated in Pickens that
no matter how the case Is decided the
dispensary will be closed.

Five Years Ago--!'
Mr. M. M. Mattlson, State Agent
for the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance
Company, offered to make a contract
with an agent for another company
operating In this State. The agent
was receiving about 50 per cent larger
commission than Mr. Mattison offered
him and he tried to Induce the former
to increase his offer. Mr. Mattlson
said: "I have offered you the company's
limit. We would be pleased to
have you and the Inducements we
have to offer are the Best Company and
the Best Policy." The agent had been
stuffed by the general agent of the
company for which he was working
with the idea that "all companies are
about the same" and" that It was the
agent and not the company that sold
the Insurance. During the early part
of this year that same agent asked for
and secured a contract with the Mutual
Benefit on the same terms offered
five years before. Previous to
making the trade he had about come
to the conclusion that he could not
sell life Insurance, while now he thinks
he is a fine salesman. Look Before
You Leap and You Will Fully Understand
Why Tl?at Agent Changed His
Opinion.
