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.

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

district. In the list of appointments
for the ensuing year, Mr.

poptilar Methodist ministers who

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.
I haven't had one of those
bad spells since I began to use
your medicine." Cardui is a specific
medicine for the ills that
women suffer. Cardui is made
from harmless vegetable ingredients.
It is a safe, reliable medicine,
successfully used by women

it today. For sale at all druggists.
Resolutions of Respect.
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.
