YORK COUNTY NEWS ITEAIS.
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 !
Miss Annie Whitesides were I

about a hundred friends and
relatives of the young- people.
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.

better spirits. He discussed politics

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

Bethel, 3; Bethany, 5; Blairsville,
4; Bullock's Creek, 2;
Clover, 9; Coates's Tavern, 8;
Ebenezer, 2; Fort Mill, 8; Forest

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.

There appeared on the streets of Rock Hill the ?
other day a most pitiful sight. It was a man about 65 [
years old who was an object of charity. For 45 years 4
this man had made a good living and could have easily v ;
saved out of his income from five to ten dollars per i
month. Now he is unable to work. Had this man, >
during his earning period, only put in a good safe bank ?
the sum of $3.00 per month, compounded at 4 per cent X
interest, he would have had at this time $5,000 in cash, ?
an amount which would have enabled him to live the #
balance of his days in ease and comfort. Are you look- *
ing forward to the time when YOU WILL BE OLD J
and unable to EARN YOUR OWN LIVING? Are you t;
laying aside each month SOME PART OF YOUR \
EARNINGS? If not, you should begin to-day and re- 5

will earn 4 per cent per annum, compounded quarterly. # I
