Four Out of Thirteen Special Rules. I Not taking any stock in the fight on the number 13 as being too unlucky C to hold a prominent position in a olumn of figures, a gentleman was C day or so ago very warm in his prases of the Newberry policemen. I e was particularly impressed with C their deportment and general behav ior; they Iooked neat and had the ap-3 pearance of being genteel. He thought there must be some force b'esides their t own natural inclination to keep them a in this pleasant condition, so he look-, ed up the rules for their guidance.: He found thirteen special rules-good. ones-and did not longer wonder why. Nine of the rules are carried out like a programme, but four are not strict ly observed, according to the examI- a ination of the gentleman handling the a subject. He says they are rules 1. 3, 1 IEWBERRY WILL HAVE TIRD COTTON MILL. WILDING OF ANOTHER MILL HERE ASSURED. :nainiity of Action Among People oi the Community.-Fine Business Men in Charge. A third cotton mill for Newberry is zsured. The men behind the new enterprise Lre business men of energy and abil ty, and men who have the confidence >f the entire community, but, eveii vhen this is taken into consideration, he short time which was necessary tc ;-et sufficient subscriptions to assure muccess is surprising. The peoplE ;eemed to feel the need of another nil here, and they got together and acked up with their subscriptions he men who were agitating its build ng. Newberry now has two of the best nills in the State, with a combined apita' of nearly a million dollars, and vhich have been remarkably success ul even in this State where success ul mills are the rule. There can be io .doubt that this third mill, undez he care of the experienced and able )usiness men who are inaugurating t, and backed by the people of the ommunity, who have dhown thei ;upport by their subscriptions, will ;ucceed. The minor details have not yet beei worked out, but it is authoritativel3 ;tated that the subscriptions no, eave no doubt that the mill will bE muilt. Aside from the business standpoint t is gratifying to see an enterprise gitated which receives the unani nofns and hearty support of a com nunity. The bringing of the people )f Newberry into closer business re ationship-the bringing of them clos r together to pull the same way ias made the movement for this third nill worth a great deal to Newberry >ver and above the material results hich will follow. This unanimity of action is a fine ribute to the men who have agitated he building of this iew mill, and is he best assurance of its success.

A meeting of the stockholders of he Farmers' and Merchants' bank, of ittle Mountain, has, been called to e held at the office of the bank on tugust 12, for the purpose of consid ring a proposition to increase the apital stock of the bank from $10,000 o $25,000.

It E .Mhoped count: PROPOSITION TO MAKE IT A COUNTY ASSOCIATION. Effort Will be to Secure Old Court House and Raise $25,000 for Im. Benefi proTement. Pl At the meeting held in the chamber of commerce rooms on Monday night, A g; in the interest of a Y. M. C. A. for West Newberry, it was determined to pre- ernoo sent to the people of Newberry coun- injure ty the advantages which would be! End derived by the whole county from I turning over the old court house for wasm this purpose, and ask them to so vote gams teams in the coming general election, and mand to make an effort to raise $25,000 for Iceeds. the improvement of the building in Canns ICannc case the election should carry, as it ance is confidently, believed it will, if the and s, matter is properly presented to the Eurel people of. the county. The date of the best beginning of the campaign will be found fixed later. repea Mr. G. C. Huntington, of Charlotte, M. C. N. C., interstate secretary of the two The Carolinas, was present and made 'an aftert earnest address in which he outlined ficien the' growth of the work of the organi- bable zation. In ten years, he said, the most' value of the property owned by the Endez Y. M. C. A.'s of the two Carolinas had seasoi increased from $108,000 in 1900 to A $523,000, approximately, at the time Bec of the holding the recent convention prom] in Anderson. Since that time over every hse $200,000 had been raised in building hins subscriptions, and it was expected Ing that in a year $300,000 more would teams be raised, bringing the aggregate up ergy, to a million dollars. He discussed the fando I ;. !their outlook for an association here, say- i ing, while the general organization The did not favor the remodelling of old Ble buildings, as a general proposition, W., c yet the plan was entirely feasible in ton, 3 Newberry, as - the plans~ of the old ton, c: court house would readily lend them- We, selves to the changes necessary. Smith Mr. A. C. Jones, who is a member Wessi of the State committee, and who is cf; B one of the most enthusiastic work- The ers in the cause in South Carolina, at 4.3 made an earnest plea for united ac- man, tion. He said he bellevea this was the on th most important gathering held in in thE Newberry^in many years. He outlin- for hi: ed the plans which had been consid- be as: ered fore the remodelling of the old you o building, and said he believed the worth people would vote to turn it over to the Y. M. C. A., and that he had nol doubt that money necessary to im prove it could readily be raised. Mr. One Jones has been connected directly and indirectly with the Y. M. C. A. y for 34.years, and for 20 years has been t a member of the State committee. It was largely due to his efforts that the FRES present movement in Newberry was will brought .about, and ii it is successful- bre; ly carried through no small part of fres the credit will be due to him. goo Other talks were made by citizens Res interested, and there was a full at d -- free discussion.DI It is proposed, if $25,000 can be obs< raised and the building secured, to mor put two additional stories on build- is al ing as it now stands, which would give a building of four stories and aFUi basement. In the lower story, in ad- witi dition to reading room, etc., it is pro posed to put rest rooms which may lg be used by the ladies of the county upon their trips to Newbe,rry, and LOST other conveniences of,.that character. -a la The whole project is to make of it a wat< county Y. M. C. A. building, in which suit the whole county will have a part and Iat E may take a pride. In the two addi- 7-12 tional stories would be placed the dormitories, and it is believed that BARB such a plant 'would be practically self- clas sustaining from the beginning. a At the meeting on Monday nighit all 'Frid were agreed, and heartily agreed, up- vite on the wisdom of seeking to secure a Y. M. C. A. for Newberry, and there was some discussion as to location, 7-5td. amount to be raised and such matters. It was finally decided, and, it seems rightly decided, to fall in line with OIGA and help carry on the plans of those Exp who are responsible for the move- brai ment and without whose efforts the pay, present interest in it would possibly ones not have been created here at this. time. The various necessary committees 2-Li will be appointed by President W. A. McSwain, of the County Y. M. C. A.
