ITEMS OF LOCAL INTEREST. .
Following the custonv adopted
recently by a -number of the
cotton mills of South Carolina,
the two Fort Mill mills on Saturday
began paying their employees
each week instead of each two
weeks as formerly. It is said
the employees are highly pleased
with the weekly pay plan.
The Times is requested by the
Young Peoples' Missionary society
of the Fort Mill Methodist
; church to extend thanks to the
I public for the liberal patronage
given the Majestic Theatre
Thursday night, through which
the society realized the sum of
$14.30 to be used toward buying
a new organ for the church.
| Announcement is made that
Capt. MI C. Willis, of Yorkville,
iH a candidate for the office of
adjutant general. Captain Willis
has been an officer in the national
guard for ten years or longer
and is well known throughout
the State. He is an extensive
planter of this county and has
made his home at Yorkville for
! many years.
Accompanied by a windstorm
I of cyclonic velocity, there was a
| considerable fall of hail throughout
this section Saturday morna
ing about (> o'clock. Immediately
after the hailstorm the mercury
began to descend and when night
came on Saturday the temperature
was well nigh down to the
freezing point. There was a
heavy frost and considerable ice
on Sunday morning.
For the benefit of Philadelphia
Methodist church, a supper will
! be given at the home of Mr.

The new express rates ordered
recently by the interstate commerce
commission became effecti
ve Sunday. The new rates show
a decided reduction, in many
cases the cut being more than
half. It is believed that a good

by express hereafter as in many
cases it can be sent as cheaply
and besides have insurance w ithout
extra cost.
A new enterprise is announced
for this community in the statement

about 200 acres, and modern
barns will be erected. Mr.
Bailes will plant crops this spring
with a view to supplying the
needs of his herd during the
coming winter which will number
20 or 25 head of cattle.
City council at its last meeting
decided among other things to
try out for economic reasons the
meter system of using current
i for lighting the town's streets
instead of continuing the lights
under the old flat rate for the
j current. According to the new
arrangement the street lights

have additional lights erected
at various points in the town
within the next few weeks.
