Mr. L. A. Harris is out again, alter oeing confined to his home for several weeks by illness. Miss Bulow Wilson, of Morganton, N. C., visited her sister, Mrs. L. J. Massey, during the .past week. I Fine weather we've had re/cently for harvesting cotton and / hay; and th^> farmers are taking I advantage of it. I Miss Nan Thornwell has gone I to Greenville to take the position I in Chicora College, to which she I was recently elected. Mr. Smythe, of the Palace I Market, has moved into the house I he bought on Hampton street, I says the Rock Hill Record. I Miss Lillie Massey left yesterI day morning for Greenville, I where she will enter Chicora I College. I Miss Crawford Sledge returned I to her home in Steel Creek FriI day, after a visit to the family I of Mr. W. E. Sledge in Chester. I Mrs. H. D. Harkey and chilf dren return today to Wilmington, I after a visit at the home of Mr. 5 W. H. Parks, on Confederate I street. I For a reason that the writer I did not learn, the local cotton exI change of Bell & Fonville has f been closed to business for several days. Mr. J. M. Armstrong, a well known citizen of Lower Fort Mill township, is seriously ill of fever at the home of his son, Mr. Lee Armstrong. Much damage was done to telphone and telegraph wires in this section by the high wind, which blew a regular gale during Monday and Monday night. Miss Sloan, of Lakeland, Fla., who has been visiting at the home of Mr. F. G. Whitlock, on Clebourn street, left several days ago for Charlotte, where she will attend Elizabeth college. Rev. J. H. Thornwell left Monday morning for Liberty, S. C., where, in the evening he was to have delivered a public lecture on Pythianism in the school auditorium. Mrs. J. M. Spratt gave a delightful entertainment at her home in Sprattville Friday afternoon to the members of her Sabbath school class. A large crowd of little folks were present and the afternoon was most pleasantly spent. The following postal rule will be of interest to patrons of rural routes: "Carriers are not required to deliver mail at residences where vicious dogs are permitted to run at large. Persons keeping such dogs must call at at tne postoffice for their mail." The Times publisher desires to see the merchants who patronize v?v itaii/yC iccuan J.1U1II the money expended in advertisising, and asks as a personal favor that his readers, and espethose friends who live in the country, watch The Times and trade with those who bid for patronage through our columns. The Fort Mill friends of Hon. L*44 J' Lumpkin, who was recently renominated county commissioner and who lives near Tirzah, will regret to- learn that he lost his home by fire Saturday night. A larger part of the household effects were also burned. The fire is supposed to have been caused by a spark from a defective flue. The Yorkville Enquirer says there have been a number of cases of diphtheria in that town within the past few days, one at Mr. J. S. Brice's, one at Mr. J. L. Sanders' and two at Mr. E. G. Sandifer's. Other cases nave been reported. Because of the diphtheria outbreak, the opening of the Graded school which was advertised for Monday was postponed until a later date. Some newspapers inveigh against the practice of candidates filling the columns of the county papers with cards of thanks after the primaries. If all editors would do like The Times,! charge for these cards as all other advertising, candidates would soon stop the practice. It has about died out in this county. Most politicians do not care to give tnanks when they have to pay for it. I Mesdames H. A. and Eunice ! Holier returned to Blackstock ! yesterday, after a visit to Mr. j and Mrs. S. L. Meacham. I Mr. John. WT Elms has rei turned to his home here, having 1 I suspended his school in Chester | county for a few weeks in order | that the pupils may assist in harvesting the crops. | The local ginnery and those in | i the country hereabouts have been running almost regularly during the past week, and many bales of new crop cotton have been bought by the local cotton men. | We trust that our farmer read- ' ers who are in arrears to the , paper will not fail to include the amounts they owe us when they sell cotton and go the rounds settling their accounts. Don't put the newspaper off until last. Relatives of Mr. Alex. Stewart, who was killed by a train near i Pineville some weeks ago, have i instuted proceedings against the ' ! Southern Railway Company for j damages in the sum of $2,000.! ! The case will likely be heard at | I * i " me next session of Mecklenburg ' superior court. | Mr. Jas. H. Patterson, who was seriously injured by an electric shock on Tuesday of last week, is still confined to his home as a result of the accident. Mr. Pat-| terson is slightly improved, but is still suffering intense pain from the several burns on his head and arms. The local merchants ar? busy : just now opening up their new. j fall and winter goods. The mer! chants have bought liberally and ! our readers may rest assured that they can get what they want here at home. Read the advertising columns of The Times and I learn where to find the newest I and best lines of goods. An express package addressed . to one of the recently nominated I dispensary candidates for the i house of representatives, marked | "for personal use," glass, at-! tracted some attention at the de- ! pot Friday afternoon. There was some speculation as to whether t.ho viroo o OHU a ijiciicia UI j the nominee was inconsistent and I was not patronizing the dispen-' I sary, as the package was from ; Myers & Co., Atlanta, Ga.?Rock ( Hill Record. Maybe the dispen- , sary was short on C. 0. D. blanks. Wanted.?A Barber. Mr. N. L. Carothers, who has for several years conducted a barber shop in the Bank building, on Monday moved his fixtures to his home, closing up his shop, and at this writing, Tuesday, the town of Fort Mill is without a regular barber. There are several causes assigned to Mr. Carothers' closing up, but from the best information obtainable the real cause is per-i sonal malice, or spite work, | between the barber and a j number of our citizens. It ap- i pears that the trouble began with ; the placing of a colored barber in the rooms of the commercial club some time ago. Some members of the club, who had patronized Mr. Carothers regularly, j went to the club barber for their work, and, according to Mr. | I Carothers, induced others to give I I their work to the cnlnrorl man 1 Things rocked along smoothly until a short time ago when the negro barber quit the town and the club members were forced to again call on Mr. Carothers for their tonsorial work. Mr. Carothers did not approve of their actions during the negro's stay here rnd flatly refused, or threatened to refuse, to again serve them. The next step of the boycotted citizens, according to our information, was to offer a much higher rate of rent for the shop occupied by Mr, Carothers than he was paying, and, although not compelled to move at once, he surrendered the room Monday morning. It is said to be the intention of these citizens to install an outfit and secure a barber at an early day. Mr. Carothers. it is understood, will re-onen his shon as soon as he can arrange for another room. In the meantime it is hoped that no one will be so unkind as to seek an explanation for the "seedy" appearance in public of any of our male citizens. REGISTRATION NOTICE.
