At a meeting of the board of i trustees of the South Carolina 1- TV/T- ! vjiuviioii^y im?> wceiv, iur. rrfiiiK Potts was chosen as a teacher of ; modern languages in the institu-! tion. Mr. Potts, who is an alumnus of the college, is a young j man of high charrcter and bril- I liant promise. As is well known, he is a native of Lancaster coun- j ty, being a son of the Hon. 0. i W. Potts, of Pleasant Valley. ? ; Lancaster News. The Fort Mill Mfg. Company j a few days ago received a ship-. mcnt of two car loads of new ! looms and now has a force of! hands putting the looms in place ' and "breaking" them in. The i new looms, forty in number, are i being placed in the "kitchen,"! taking the place of a like number of old Bridesberg looms' which were thrown out. The new looms are of the two-box Crompton type. Fort Mill Wins 3to 2 Game. j By far the most interesting; and closely contested game of the season, and said by many to be the best game ever played) here, took place Friday afternoon between the Winnsboro and Fort Mill teams. The grounds were wet and slippy, but notwithstanding the, game was well played by both teams. 1 It would be doing an injustice to mention the excellent work of any particular man, or men. as all did the best in their power. The game resulted in a victory i for Fort Mill by the very close score of 3 to 2. The batteries were DesPortes and Douglass for Winnsboro. and Kizer and Parks for Fort Mill. WE WIN ANOTHER. Since putting the above in type Fort Mill has added another to its rapidly growing list of victories. The last game, which was much better than that of Friday, took place Tuesday afternoon on the local diamond, and the home team goose-egged the Rock Hill team to the tune of 4 to 0. The game was a pitcher's battle from start to finish, Gelzer, for Rock Hill, | allowed only four hits, while Kizer, for Fort Mill, let the visitors down with one less, i Fort Mill played an errorless, game and it was evident that had the visitors given their pitcher better support the game would nave been much closer. Time of game, one hour. Umpire Connoly came in for a deal of praise upon his decisions which were prompt and accurate. The several victories won by the local team has caused the teams of the nearby towns much worry, and several are now after Fort Mill's scalp. At present Manager Harris has challenges from Winnsboro, Chester, Rock Hill, Yorkville and Charlotte. It will be impossible to accept all these challenges for the present but within a few weeks it is probable that the Fort Mill team will "j?et busy" and show the fans of the above towns a touch of the real artielc. Funeral of Mrs. Sledge. I The funeral of Mrs. W. E. Sledge, of Chester, whose death was spoken of in last week's Times, took place Wednesday at noon at Steele Creek church. There was a large crowd present attesting the popularity of the dead. Before marriage Mrs. Sledge was a Miss Porter. She was a lovely character and was adi&ired by all who knew her. 1 FIF1 ?

There was considerable excitement on the streets Friday afternoon over the several reports of a pitched battle between Constable J. J. Coltharp and . Officer V. T). Potts, on one side I and C. C. Belk and son Sidney Belle, on the other, at the home of C. C. Belk, two miles south of Fort Mill. The all'ray was the outcome of a difficulty Thursday morning at the passenger station here between Sidney Belk and a negro, Jack Brice, in which the latter was painfully gashed about the head and face by Belk. Immediately after the light Belk went to the home of his father and remained there until a warrant was issued for his arrest anrl the officers went to serve the paper Friday afternoon. Belk, on seeing the officers, escaped to the thickets. and was not arrested. The shooting afiray at the home of the elder Belk. as related to the reporter, was started l>y C. C. Belk, who was attempting to assist his son to escape. The officers had approached within a short distance of the Belk house when Sidney Belk left the house, gun in hand, and made a dash for the woods. The officers gave chase and had followed Belk several hundred yards when they were surprised by the elder Belk approaching from the rear, also armed with a shotgun. Mr. Potts commanded Belk to drop his gun, hut instead the old man raised the weapon and fired twice at the rni. . i i omcers. 1 lie pun was cnargea j with small shot and the shot did i no damage. Officer Potts returned the shots, emptying his pistol, but these also failed to have effect. The old man Belk then went to his home and the officers returned to town. Later in the afternoon the officers, armed with warrants for both of the Belks went again to the scene of the affray, but failed to make an arrest as both men wanted had left for other parts.

Crops are looking well, the grain which was harvested and remained in the field is somewhat damaged. The topic of conversation is fine gardens and good crops. Ripe fruit is coming in nicely, and watermelons are plentiful in Pineville. On the 17th inst. Miss Mays Carothers, of Steel Creek, passed from time into eternity. She was a very bright sweet girl, highly cultivated and all who knew her loved her. The be reaved family have the sympathy of the community. There was no preaching at Flint Hill last Sunday, but the good people had Sunday school, all the same. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Owen, of Charlotte, y. ho have been visiting their uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. J. K. Carothers, have returned home. The health of this community is very good.
