looms and now has a force of!

new looms are of the two-box

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.

Fired On the Officers.
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.

Popular street.
The announcement of the
death of this lovable young lady
will be a great shock to her
friends, for although she has
been very unwell for over a
year, there seemed to be no
cause for aiarm until a week aero,
when at Barium Springs, where
she had gone in hope of being
benefitted she was taken so ill
that her friends moved her to
Charlotte.
The deceased was the oldest
daughter of Mrs. Mollie Erwin
Caruthers. of this county, and
was a young lady of very lovable
disposition. She was always
bright and unselfish and even
in her severe illness she seemed
to forget herself entirely and to
think only of others.
Besides her mother and a devoted
aunt. Miss Violet Erwin,
Miss Caruthers leaves four
brothers. Messrs. Randolph,
Frank, McClean and Clyde Caruthers,
all of this county, and
one sister, Miss Carolene Carut
hers.
Yestc rdav afternoon the bodv
was taken to Pleasant Iliil
church, in Lower Steele Creek,
where the interment took place,

Observer, Monday.
Flint Hill.
We have had protracted rains.
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.
