Yorkviile Enquirer, Saturday. Coroner Louthian was called to the Tirzah neighborhood Wednesday to investigate the sudden death of an aged negro woman. Dr. J. I. Barron accompanied him, and after an examination of the corpse of the deceased, gave it as his opinion that death was due to natural causes. Deputy Sheriff Quinn and Constable J. L. Sanders had a race last Monday night after a negro convict recently escaped from the Cleveland county, N. C., chaingang. They found the man on Mr. R. K. Lowry's plantation. He tried to get away; but after Constable Sanders had fired several shots at him he allowed himself to be caught. He was at once committed to jail. Mr. Robert C. Faulkner and !

Gaffney special to the Spartanburg Herald: Nothing remains to be done now at the big power dam at Gaston Shoals except to clear away the debris, as the gates were closed yesterday, and in a short time the water will be flowing over the spillway, and this powers will go racing all over the country to turn the wheels of machinery, showing how subservient to man is nature when made to do his will. It will give some idea of the magnitude of this enterprise when one realizes that this work, when totally completed, will have cost nearly twelve hundred thousand dollars. The action of thd grand jury in calling upon the county board of commissioners to refund an amount paid out for a bridge over a road that had been discontinued to the public has occasioned not a little commeut. Inquiry of members of the grand jury develops that the bridge was built on the plantation of I Mr. James Cansler, near Tirzah. | If the facts are as the grand jury has reason to believe, the commissioners will make good to the treasurer and Mr. Cansler, or whoever caused the bridge to be erected, will make good to the commissioners. Rock Hill Record, Monday. The management of the Tavora Cotton Mill at Yorkville has decided to close down indefinitely, or until there is sufficient improvement in the yarn market to warrant a resumption of operations. The mill is entirely out of cotton and has very little yarn on hand. A Mr. Neely was accidentally killed at the plantation of Mr. C. C. Hughes between this place and Yorkville Saturday afternoon by being caught in some belting. At the time of our going to press we were unable to get particulars in regard to same. York Republican Convention. The Rock Hill Herald says that a call has been made for a convention of the union Republican Party df York County to be held at Yorkville on the 25th., at 12 o'clock, m., for the the purpose of electing four delegates and two alternates to attend the State convention which is to be held in Columbia the 28th., and seven delegates and four alternates to attend the fifth district convention to be held in Rock Hill May 5. Senator Tillman, who has been in Atlanta for several weeks, continues to improve in strength, but realizes his condition is one where continued rest is necessary to the building up of his shattered nerve forces. Now that he is sleeping well, he feels in much better spirits. He discussed politics with a newspaper man yes- j terday for the first time since he 1 has been in Atlanta. - " A * rMAGAZINES A We get a s?pply of the Leading Magazines as G delivered fresh from the A 1 "? presses several aays oefore the regular mail isZ sues. j We can furnish you something good to read nearly N all the time. Call at ^ Ar drey's S Drug Store Bond Issue Lost Out. As predicted in these columns the past week, the election Friday upon the question of issuing $10,000 in bonds for the erection of a new graded school building here was defeated. There was perhaps less interest shown in Friday's election than in any election held here in some years, there being only eighty-three votes cast. Of these 37 were for and 46 against the bonds. York Democrats On the Move. In compliance with a call from the executive committee of the York Democratic organization the various precinct clubs will meet at their respective precincts on Saturday, April 25, for the purpose of re-organizing and electing delegates to the county convention to be held in Yorkville on the first Monday in May. Precinct clubs are instsucted to elect one delegate for each 25 votes cast in the first primary election of 1906, and one delegate for each majority fraction of 25 votes. The precinct polls will be kept open from 3 p. m. to 6 p. m., for the purpose of such election. Under the rules of the party upon which the call was based, the various clubs will be entitled to representation in the county convention as follows: Bethel, 3; Bethany, 5; Blairsville, 4; Bullock's Creek, 2; Clover, 9; Coates's Tavern, 8; Ebenezer, 2; Fort Mill, 8; Forest Hill, 2; Hickory Grove, 8; McConnellsville, 4; Newport, 2: Ogden, 3; Piedmont, 1: Rock Hill No. 1, 13; Rock Hill No. 2, 7; Sharon, 3; Smyrna, 3; Tirzah, 2; Yorkville No. 1, 14; Yorkville No. 2, 10. First Regiment Encampment Plans. The first regiment. South Carolina National Guards will not go into camp at Sullivan's Island the latter nart of .Tune n* in tended. Instead of the first regiment going into camp at Sullivan's Island at this time the second and third regiments will go into camp and the first regiment will go into camp at some other place in the State or at Chicamauga at a later date. Some time ago Adjutant Inspectot General Boyd issued orders for the first regiment to go into camp at Sullivan's Island the latter part of June, but his order has been countermanded for the reason that the companies composing this regiment will not find it possible for the men to get off in June, the reason being that the members of most of the companies are composed of farmer boys and June will be a very busy month with them. Another reason for countermanding the order is that Col. Lewis, commander of the first regiment, has important engagements during the latter part of June and he wrote to Gen. Boyd stating that it would be impossible for him to gooff on encampment at the time fixed.
