SHORT ITEMS of INTEREST to TIMES READERS. The highest price paid for cotton on the Fort Mill market yesterday was 141-2 cents. Cotton seed. 45 cents per bushel. The corn exposition in Columbia last week was a great success, ; according to Mr. Osmond Barber, j the only farmer from this section who is known to have been pres ent. j The practice of a number of country papers in this section of suspending for the Christmas holidays will not be observed by The Times, which will be issued as usual Christmas week. Cotton-picking in this section is almost a thing of the past for the present season. Only in isolated instances is there sufficient cotton still in the fields to make the gathering of it profitable. Several important changes have taken place in the management of the Pineville cotton mills during the last few days. J. W. Jenkins has been succeeded as resident superintendent by J. C. Keller, of Concord, and a number of the old foremen of the different departments have given way to new men. Mr. Fred Nims has resigned the superintendency of the Charlotte Brick company, at Grattan, his resignation to take effect the first of the new year. Mr. Nims' services are said to have been entirely satisfactory to the brick company and pleasant for himself, but he will devote his attention next year to the conduct of his farm, near town. Ground was broken Monday morning for the building of the Merchants and Farmers bank, which is to occupy the site be- 1 twPPM hnilrlino-s of tho Parto , Drug company and Stewart & Culp. The building will be the i property of Capt. J. W. Ardrey and the work is being done by Contractor A. A. Bradford. Tomorrow afternoon there will be a meeting of the shareholders of | the bank at which the officers will be elected. The two Charlotte negroes who were arrested near Harrison church some weeks ago by Policeman Wagstaff, of Pineville, while they were en route to Fort Mill with two bales of cotton stolen from the Southern Cotton Oil company, in Charlotte, their purpose being to dispose of the 1 cotton here, will spend long terms | on the Mecklenburg county chaingang for the offense. One of the negroes was given 18 months and the other two years. The Fort Mill friends of the Rev. R. A. Yongue, who was pastor of the Fort Mill circuit several years ago, will be pleased - to learn that he has again been assigned to work in the Rock Hill district. In the list of appointments for the ensuing year, Mr. Yongue is assigned to the Chester circuit. He is one of the most poptilar Methodist ministers who Vinvp sppvpH thp lr?r?ul pVinrpUno for a number of years and is pleasantly remembered in this section by the members of all denominations. Saved Her Own Life Lebanon Jet.. Ky. ?Mrs. Minnie Lamb, of this place, says, "I believe I would have been dead by now, had it not been for Cardui.

Whereas it has pleased Him who do>eth all things well to remove from our school and society our friend and schoolmate, James Hoke, We bow in. humble submission to His will, knowing that He makes no mistakes; and yet we desire to place on record our grief and sorrow at his death. We feel that the Master must have nctu ui uniiK'^, uii tin- citnt-r milt*, rise He would not have taken from us, juRt now, such a young, happy life, and one who was a favorite among his friends. May we try to live so that when our summons comes we may meet him in that beautiful land. We, as members of the Literary Society of the Fort Mill Graded and High School, have adopted the following reslutions: First, That we, while resigning ourselves to the Providence of God, do miss our friend and feel the deepest sympathy for his sorrowing family. Second. That we dedicate a page of our minute book to his memory, have these resolutions printed in the paper, and a copy ?ent 10 the family. Lucy Merritte, Secretary.
