lotto Sunday night to see her.
| Doctors Kirkpatrick, Thompson
and Spratt successfully amputated
the right leg of Andy Neely, a!
colored tenant on the farm of Mr. |
B. F. Maesoy, Monday. The negro !
has been suffering from a large i
sotv on hie leg for some time and '
it hnd f[rown to such an extent
that the doctors found amputation '
necessary.
The citizens of the town should j
keep their lots clear of weeds and
1 grass not otdy for a better appear- j
! a nee but also as a preventative of i
j sickness. This is the time of year
when the dew and frost, fulling (>u
I weeds as they decay causes dip
theria and our people should wage i
t war against such things during the
month of September.
Mr. Iv. Shannon, the public cotton
weigher, has purchased new
and expensive scales. Fie had to 1
J dive down into his own pocket to
pay for them, for since the people !
; have taken upon themselves the
privilege of electing the weigher, |
the town, we suppose, feel no long- I
] er obligated to furnish scales. I
However, Mr. Shannon is anxious I
to please the publis and he wanted
to hear no kick coining about old j
jscales.
Make Hay While the Sac Shines.

Jn veiw of the short corn crop
I and the scarcity of fodder, etc.,
! which will arise therefrom, our
! farmers have been busily engaged |
1 during the fair weather of the past
t n-n.. 1. rt.. i ' - -
wining miiu curing penvilie
hay. The improved mowing machines
are being extensively used
this season and all the the farmers
are well pleased with their work- j
ing qualities. Agents in this
place for the different companies
have sold quite a number of harvesting
machines and numbers of
people have been heard to say
that they will buy later.

Would the Tows.
We notice in our exchanges that
several towns of the State are collecting
taxes on dogs and a number
have taken in more than a
hundred dollars from this source.
We do not see why Fort Mill could
not profit by such an ordinance, as^
the town is well supplied in the
canine line. The town would have
better streets and more money with
which to repair them were the council
to enact several tax ordinances.
Tinier Have Changed.
One of our oldest citizens remarked
while returning from divine
services last Sunday that it
reminded him of old times to see
the large congregations at the services
at the Presbyterian church.
He said that years ago it was an
unwritten law in every household
that every member of the family
' must attend church on Sunday.
I Then the families hod pews and
I every member of tho family from
the smallest child to tho grayhaired
parents could be seen in
their respective pews and it was
! a ease of flogging when n child left
church during the service#. Uut
; how times have changed!

j Another death occured at the
. Catawba dam on last Wednesday.
Jim Horn, colored, was drowned
while crossing the river in a flatboat
along with several other workmen.
The boat had reached a
point about twenty feet from the
shore when horn was seen to
spring into the water, which is
very swift at that place. His companions
watched a few moments
for his return to the surface, hut
he was not t > rise again until Friday
afternoon when his body was
found several hundred yards below
where he had jumped in. None
of the persons who were with him
hnve nny idea why the man jumped
from the boat.

hiuI in several days time the water
