School Bonds to be Re-Sold.

xvcan tv v^o., me ^mca^o
brokers, will not be the purchasers
of the $10,000 worth of school
x>nds issued by the Fort Mill
khool district several months
igo. It will be recalled that
iCean & Co, were the highest
)idders when the bonds were ofered
for sale and the firm was
luly awarded the purchase,
rhen began a long drawn out
:orrespondence between the
irokers and the school board as
o the validity, etc., of the bonds,
his feature of the transaction
:onsuming more than a month
vhen it seemed that the matter
ihould have been closed in a
nuch shorter space of time. The
dea dawned upon many that
Cean & Co., had failed to re-sell
he bonds and were holding oft'
he closing of the transaction in
in effort to place the bonds.
Anally, when all questions as to
he validity of the issue had been
urnished, the bonds were printid
by the Chicago brokers and
ent here for the signatures of
he trustees. The papers were
.t once signed and sent to a
ftiieago bank with instructions
0 deliver them to Kean & Co.
ipon payment of the amount of
he firm's bid. Here the mater
hung fire for several weeks,
r until the local school board
ecaire thoroughly disgusted
vith the manner in which Kean
1 Co., were dealing with them,
nd ordered the Chicago bank to
eturn the bonds. The papers
rrived here a few days ago and
he board will again offer them
or sale. It is understsod that
everal reputable bond dealers
tave inquired about the bonds
nd it is believed that little
rouble and delay will be further
xperienced in effecting a sale.
Game Bird Season Opens Monday.
I ' 11 1 ' '
Next Monday, the 15th, ushers
11 the open seaspn for the huntng
of wild turkey, partridge,
luail and woodcock, and the
>ang of the sportsman's gun will
hen be heard until March 1,
vhen the season again closes.
The weather is yet a bit warm
or good shooting, but as soon as
he temperature drops to a suita>le
figure, local shooters will get
>usv. Sunday shooting is prolibited
by a statute passed to
his end.
It is unlawful to sell or export
or sale any of the birds mcnioned
above, and the Audubon
lociety will doubtless see that
his law is enforced. It will be
incumbent upon any one selling
luail, or woodcock to prove that
ne birds sold are imported, as
inly imported birds of this class
nay be legally sold in this State.
Game birds may be shot in
>outh Carolina at any time, exepting
those especially proected,
but the laws are strict in
elation to non-game birds, and
>rohibit both the killing and
elling of non-game birds, either
esident or migratory.
Non-residents of South Caroina
must procure a special license
it a cost of ten dollars, plus the
1 ~ -C A- ? * I*
lein. vi court, s ieo, ior tnc
>rivilege of hunting in this State.
Phis license permits hunting
vithin the law, and expires at
he end of the shooting season,
t limits the holder to take from
he State fifty partridges, or
welve ruffled grouse, or four
vild turkeys, or fifty beach
>irds, or fifty wild chicks or
jeese, or two deer in one season.

Route Suggested for Trolley Line.
(
! Editor Times: I saw an article
. in yoiir paper of Nov. 4 in regard
to the building of a trolley line
' from Rock Hill to Charlotte by
! The Carolina Traction company.
Knowing some of the gentlemen
behind this proposition, I am
sure that the road will be built
, in the near future and would
like to suggest to the company
I that they tap Fort Mill and then
I take the Tuckasege road to
Shopton, in Steel Creek township,
and then to Dixie and on to
Charlotte. The distance would
be something like 22 miles from
Fort Mill to Charlotte and the
road is comparatively level. Besides
tapping the towns of Shopton
and Dixie, it is the most
densely populated route they
| could find and would split ?the
] country about half way between
the railroad and the river. By
this route it would be necessary
to bridge only three branches
and one creek. I hope to see the)
j people along tne route suggested
i go to work and sec what induce J
; ments can be offered this grand I
i enterprise in the way of grant-1
ling rights of ways, etc.. and
don't stop working and talking
until the road is buiit.

lillies of the valley.

sweetly by Miss Elms.
Immediately after the ceremony the
