this election there will be two aldermen
at large and one or two ward
aldermen selected. There are a number
of candidates in the held and the
election will be watched closely. The
report of the treasurer showed a balance
on hand which is a matter of
congratulation.
R. H. McConnell, of this city, has
been appointed as field deputy U. S.
marshal with headquarters here. He
will work with Capt. J. Wilson Marshall
who for some years has been U.
S. commissioner.
Two of Rock Hill's citizens will be

Lynn, the mother of the late
Dr. Arthur Lynn, of beloved memory,
with her children, Mr. James and
Miss Millie, have come from Edgemore.
Mr. William Cooper and family,
of Williamsburg, are also here.
Mr. Cooper has for some years occupied
the position of superintendent of
education in his county. He was
years ago a cadet at the King's Mountain
Military school in Yorkville,
when that school was in the charge
of Col. Asbury Coward, and already
has found friends In his new home.
News has reached here of a death

has always lived highly respected.
There are quite a number of business

the rounds since the beginning of the
year. Mr. Joseph B. Gaston, who for

While engaged In moving some hay
from a house on the farm of Mr. Jas.
Whiteside, a young son of Mr. W. S.
Boyd came across the evidence of
some ofieW-rascaHty. The find was In
the shape of a lot of dry goods, consisting
of about a dozen complete sijits
of clothes, a number of odd pairs of
pants, overcoats, shoes and other valuable
articles, the value of the whole
batch being in the neighborhood of
$300. With the exception of the overcoats
the goods were Identified by Mr.
J. S. Glass, who runs a store In Edgemoor.
The bulk of these articles had
been taken from a room over Mr.
Glass's store and as he had not had occasion
to go Into that part of the
building during that day he had not
made the discovery that anything was
missing.* Evidences were found that
the store had been entered by a second
story window. The overcoats
have as yet not been identified.
The New Year's dance given In
Friedhelm's hall, though not so large
an affair as some that the club has
? given, was one of the most pleasant
and most enjoyed in the history of the

a first-class one It Is, furnished delightful
music for the occasion. The
dancers were: Miss Dusenbury and

Case or Roed Smoot.?Mr. Reed
Smoot might just as well give up the
fight. A million women are demanding
his scalp. We see It stated In the
Washington Post that thirty-eight
bound volumes, comprising a thousand
petitions, in the Reed Smoot case will
be filed with the secretary of the senate
as soon as the committe submits Its
report. The petitions are being bound
In New York. The names of more thar
1,000,000 women have been affixed
pleading with the senate to take a
stand for the purity of the home. Before
the report Is submitted to the senate
the committee will endeavor to obtain
the exact language of the test oath
taken in the endowment house, to
which Smoot subscribed while a boy.
Several witnesses have sworn to hav
ins: taken this oath, but the exact
wording has not been fully established.
Senator Smoot himself when on the
stand; refused to repeat the oath as he
remembered It. But the refusal of the
Mormons to divulge the oath ought to
be sufficient cause for barring Smoot
from Congress.?Charlotte Chronicle.
? Washington January 2: The supreme
court of the United States today
affirmed the decision of the Kentucky
court of appeals In the case of
James B. Howard vs. the state of
Kentucky. Howard was tried three
times In the circuit court of Franklin
county, Kentucky, on the charge of
murdering Governor Wm. Goebel, of
Kentucky, on January 30, 1900, and
convicted each time. He Is now under
sentence to life Imprisonment and
he brought the case to this court to
secure a review of the ruling of
the Kentucky court of appeals, affirming
a decision of the circuit court
against allowing him another trial.
His principal allegation was that the
proceedings of the trial court In the
matter of selecting and discharging
jurymen was irregular, and In violation
of the 14th amendment. Justice
McKenna expressed the opinion
of the court that the plaintiff was
not denied any rights secured to him
under that amendment.
Shonts Is Touchy?It Is said that
the president is having trouble in preventing
the resignation of the chairman
of the isthmian canal commission.
Mr. Shonts has not taken kindly to
criticism directed at him and administration
of canal affairs in the senate
and, so rumor runs would have stepped
out ere this had the president not
besought him to remain. Should criticisms
continue it would not be surprising
if Mr. Shonts decides to throw
up his job, despite the president's solicitations.

"A Maia or tne rooinnn.
By J. Lemacks Stokes, D. D.
This is the taking title of a book
having peculiar interest for us. In the
first place it is by one of the most gifted
clergymen in South Carolina, Rev.
J. Walter Daniel, D. D., of the Washington
St. Methodist church, Columbia.
Dr. Daniel has 'not only won a foremost
place in the pulpit, but from
time to time he has sent out essays in
the line of fiction, "Character Studies"
of our southern people, of a genial
humor, and having real merit. The
volume before us is easily the best
work that he has done of this sort.
It shows a more practiced pen, a closer
study of conditions, a more graphic
recital of life-scenes. On the author's
account then?a man growing and
ripening among us, of splendid powers,
reflecting credit on our whole
state?on the author's account the
book is of special interest.
But it appeals to us as a vivid portrayal
of "Reconstruction" times in
South Carolina; beginning with the
Confederate soldier's sad return home,
dwelling at length upon the Ku Klux
episode, and cjosing with the great
"red-shirt" movement of 1876. It
brings out one fact that we do not remember
any previous writer to have
emphasized, that "reconstruction"
would not have been possible?at least
as it was?without the co-operation of
the renegade southerner. It pillories
unmercifully this "scalawag." We
burn with indignation as we read of
these cormorants, who began by dodging
the war; growing fat on government
contracts and finally joining
hands with the negroes and the "carpet
bagger" to plunder our commonwealth;
while we are touched with
tender pathos as we see the heroism
of the missing leg or empty sleeve, a'.l
glorified with woman's steadfast devotion.
The true intent and normal
development of the Ku Klux Klan is
given by one fair yet sympathetic. It
is a pity that the "red-shirt" movement
has not received fuller treatment.
but the author writes me that
perhaps in future editions of the book
this may be given.
The book has an especial interesl
for York county readers, as the scene
shifts during the Ku Klux times tc
Yorkville and vicinity: and one of the
most delicious pieces of humor it contains
is that of the examination of Sam
Hicks before a military court al
Yorkville; Sam insisted that our little
I city was in Xorth Carolina. " 'Because
I know thar ain't no state as
big as it's from here to whar I was
foteh up.' " (He had come from Laurens.)
The book is published by The Xeale
Pub. Co.. Xew York and Washington
but can be had of the author for $1.50
We do trust it may have a wide anc
thoughtful reading. It is part of the
history of our state that no lover ol
Carolina can afford to neglect.

You Can Trust
The Mutual Benefit Life Insurance
Company as you would an old friend.
It has served three generations of
men, and during its entire career, covering
a period of sixty-one years, has
never deceived or disappointed a single
policy holder. Among its policy
holders today are Grandfathers, Fathers
and Sons, and many of them have
attested their satisfaction In a series of
letters which the Company has published
and which ore yours for the
asking. The company Is stronger In
the confidence and affections of the
American people today than ever before.
Of course, the other fellow
wants your business and he has just
as much right to want it as I have and
all that, but if you will investagate the
record of his company and the provisions
of its contracts, as compared
with the Mutual Benefit, I am sure you
will decide that it is not as much to
your interest to insure in his company.
