Dedicatory Services Sunday.
ine new mnt Hill baptist
church, in the upper part of Fort
Mill township, which has been in
course of construction for several
months, will this week be completed
and the building will be
dedicated to the service of the
Lord on next Sundav. Services
appropriate to the occasion will
be held and several visiting ministers
are expected to be present.
It is the desire of the church and
pastor that next Sunday be observed
as a home-coming day by
all former members and friends
of the church, and a cordial invitation
is extended to all to attend
the services.
Rev. Mr. Hafner Heartily Welcomed.
The Presbyterian manse on
Confederate street was the scene
of a very happy event last Wednesday
evening, the occasion being
the welcome reception and
"pounding" of the new pastor.
Rev. W. A. Hafner. All during
the day members of the congregation
had busied themselves in
getting together articles of food,
etc., and in the lot procured, it
was said, was a supply of everything
from a pod of pepper to a
bundle of hay. Great and pleasant
was the surprise of Mr. Hafner
and family upon reaching the
manse to behold the bountiful
supply of good things.
The occasion was not only an
assurance of welcome to Mr.
Hafner and family, but expressive
of the hope that their stay
here may be long, happy and
successful.

Corner Stone of Monument Laid.
Thursday was indeed a happy
day for the citizens of Ebenezer,
especially the noble members of
the S. D. Barron Chapter, U. D.
C. On that day at 3 o'clock in
the presence of a large crowd the
corner stone of the monument to
the confederate dead in Ebenezer
! cemetery was laid. There was
no special service save by the
members of the chapter. These
i good ladies have worked dilgently
for more than seven years for
the monument and now since the
erection of same has been start- j
: ea tney are to be congratulated I
upon their great success. The
monument will be located in
| front of the church and will be
' a beautiful structure.?Rock Hill

More Pay For Militia.
Col. Henry Thompson, commander
of the Second regiment,
received notification last night
that his regiment would receive
the benefit of tne increases in
the army pay. Congress last
week passed a bill increasing
the army pay 20 per cent.
It was not then known that
the increase applied to the
militia, but the letter which was
received last night states that
the South Carolina regiments
will get the benefit, along with !
other militia, of the increase in ,
pay as provided by congress.
This means that all enlisted men
and officers on the encampment
this summer will receive about
20 per cent, more pay than they
did last year. ?The State.
"Gsuiters Ginger Snaps."
(Rock Hill Record.)
The League season opened
here Monday afternoon before a
crowd variously estimated up to
2,000 persons. There were
probably a thousand there.
The opening game was note
worthy for two things?one was
that Rock Hill won the game and
the other that the exhibition was
was a mighty poor one any way
you look at it. 4'Doc" McFaaden
and Wesley Anderson could
'put a team on the field that
would have Gunter's Ginger
Snaps, in their present form,
"skinned a mile." And that's
no joke! The truth of the matter
is that the home team is
miserably weak in several positions.
There needs to be some
radical shifting if Rock Hill expects
to put up anything like the
real article. Gunter should get
off first bag and go out in the
garden where he belongs. He
is not doing himself or the team
justice on the first bag. The
game Monday was a loose-jointed
one in a good many ways. There
was absolutely no head-work
shown by our team?and it was
a miracle that we won, that
miracie being the effective work
of James, who turned the game
with a three bagger, and Matthews,
who did yeoman's service
in the box, as well as putting
the ball over the right field fence
for a home run. The score was
j 8 to 6, and it was reported in
i the paper that the error column
j was: Rock Hill 4, Chester 2. The
: writer saw one Rock Hill man
make 6 errors alone. Maybe
i the scorer got tired and lost the
| count.
The game Tuesday afternoon
was a farce; The local team
could not pitch, nor field, nor
bat. Result: 9 to 0. The Chester
lads played ball! They
worked like an organized machine
and had our boys up in the
air from start to finish. As
Mayor Roddey says of the tele;
phone, it was "rotten, rotten,
rotten." And that's no joke,
either. For a fact, no rottener
game could be played?the rankest
of rank errors and absolutely
no team work. The only redeeming
feature was the good
head work of the Chesterites. As
a matter of fact, Rock Hill lost
the game in the first half of the
first inning, and the locals never
| had the ghost of a chance to
1 head off Caldwell's men. Rock
j Hill only made 9 errors,
That nice little kindergarten
squabble over the "lost ball"
| was edifying ?charming to those
, | who had paid to see a ball game.
