clennerl and, in fact, the entire
town beai'M evidence of the work
of the society. They hope to do
oven greater things when the ordi- i
nance prohibiting the throwing of :
paper and trash on the streets can
be enforced. The ladies wish to
call the attenton of the citizens to
the fact that there is an ordinance
against allowing cows to walk on
tiie pavements and of throwing
melon lhipda on the streets. There >
is also a law againpt allowing dray 1
vagons to stand in front of the
stores whei) idlp, the violation of M
which is particularly objectionable |,
around the public well. They i
would also invite the attention of
the authorities to the fact that the
street from the Bank building to
the overhead bridge is daily used
as a hitching place and is at times
so blocked with vehicles that <
ladies and children tie afraid to
pass. The ladies have appealed to i
the council to enforce these ordi- 1
nances, and it is safe to say that
ihey will give the desired help.

The Fort Mill Light Infantry
returned Monday evening, after i
eight, davs otcamn lifn ??t Ifiiliro I
wood Park, Columbia. The boys
were all in.a jolly mood and expressed
themselves as highly pleas- |
ed with t'^e encampment, and it is
beleiyed that, if another call to
duty was sounded each member
would readily shoulder his gun <
and "fall in."
There were 53 men in the company,
which is by several the largest,
number that has attended an
encampment since its organization.
Mauy compliments were paid the
boys, for their excellent conduct,
soldierly bearing and regular attendance
a,t drill. Another fact by
way of compliineut, that is worthy
of notice was the few arrests of
members of the company; in fact,
being leey than one-fifth the number
of arrests as on former encainpuients.

The sham battle battle took place
Saturday afternoon at Slmudon,
the 1st and drd battalions being
arrayed in battle against the 2nd.
Tho lighting was fast and fm ions,
and while the local company was
on tho losing side, many are of tinbelief
that the result would have
been ditTcrent had the battle been j
real. Private F. K. Ardrey who'
was chosen as one to fall "dead'
upon the field, of battle, wan. highly
complimented for th*;> spectacular
manner in which he pet formed
this duty. In fact, it is said that
30 real was the fall, one of the lit Id
officers became much excited, vowing
that someone had fired a loaded
cartridge and really caused the
young man's, death. To Sergt.

As a whole tbe encampment was
enjoyed, by the local company, and
at the bugler's lirst call in the encampment
