' - r lumbia for the convenience of passengers coming to Yorkville. The new schedule became effective Sunday morning. Avery Hawkins Recaptured. Supervisor Brown has just returned from a trip to Decatur, Ga., where he went after Avery Hawkins, white, who escaped from the chaingang about four and a half years ago. Avery, with his father, Charlie, and brother, Joe, were convicted of housebreaking and larceny on account of wholesale burglaries of Sharon stores, and sent up for five years each. Avery got away from the Cherry farm stockade a short time after his commitment. The escape was effected during a thunderstorm, and along with him went Wash Harlowe, nnnthpp white convict. Harlowe was afterward recaptured and served thel balance of his term. Charlie Hawkins and Joe finished their sentences last fall and were discharged. On Friday Supervisor Brown received a wire from Sheriff J. A. McCurdy of Decatur, advising that Avery was being held pending Instructions and the supervisor immediately left for Decatur.

IV. C. Taylor, superintendent of the Gaffney public schools, said Sunday morning that the story from Gaffriey last night lelntive to the Thorn- j well orphanage-Gaflfney High football game created a wrong Impression, since it made it appear that Gaifney was the aggressor in demanding that two more games be played. Mr. Taylor said that the Gaffney school authorities were willing to let the matter rest as a triangular tie, that they were willing to play Thornwell and have two championship titles but that Thornwell demanded that Gaffney play, the alternative being that Thornwell would claim the upstate title, and that Charleston demanded that the winner of this game play Charleston or Charleston would claim the title for the entire state. Mr. Taylor said that Gaffney was therefore forced to play in self-defense, since she did not propose to be robbed of her laurels by default. Either Thornwell or Gaffney will have to play three games within one week as a result of the decision reached yesterday and the Gaflfney High school team has already played thirteen games this season against the strongest teams in the Piedmont.

HELPFUL WORDS From a York Citizen. Is your back lame and painful? Does it ache especially after exertion? Is there a soreness in the kidney region? These symptoms suggest weak kidneys. If so there is danger in delay. Weak kidneys get weaker fast. -Give your trouble prompt attention. Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak kidneys. Your neighbors use and recommend them. Ask your neighbor! Read this York testimony. Mrs. J. W. Quinn, 14 Cleveland Ave., says: "Quite a few years ago I had a slight attack of kidney trouble and at times this complaint caused no little annoyance. My head would ache badly and I would be dizzy and nervous. I heard a great deal about Doan's Kidney Pills so I started to take them. I must say Doan's greatly relieved me of all that trouble." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy?get Doan's Kidney Pills?the same that Mr8. Quinn had. . Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. ~ OBITUARY.
