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

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

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.

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

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.
