Patterson and family, who have resided on Forest street for some time, are now occupying the Norman cottage at the corner of Forest and Booth streets. Thomas F.

TU/, ? ui:? ?i 1 I a iic iuv,rt> yuunc auiiuui WUi> closed Friday, in order that pupils and teachers might attend the county fair at Rock Hill. Almost the entire school with j the exception of the primary pupils, spent the day on the fair grounds. Sam A. Lee's big new bicycle sustained slight damages Monday afternoon when, ridden by its owner, it plunged head-on into a small Ford on the curve at Bailes' lumber yard. Fortunately, Mr. Lee was observing the I speed limit, else the damage to J his wheel might have been far greater and there is no telling t what might have happened to the Ford. Osmond Barber, one of the progressive farmers of this section, stated to a friend Friday that during the 13 months which had elapsed since September 1, 1914, he had sold 110 pigs, receiving an average per pig of $3. Mr. Barber doubtless is doing more to advance the "hog and ^ hominy" project in this section than any other citizen. Although it would seem a little I early for the "soaks" of the com- j munity to be laying in their annual supply of Christmas booze, ! the whiskey receipts at the local express office during the last few days are said to have been almost equal to those usually arriving for the few days immediately preceding the Christmas holidays. The Times is further informed that of the 29 money orders issued by the local postoffice one day recently. 23 of the orders went to Richmond whiskey houses. Rftfll .TapVcrtn o noirfA tiroo instantly killed at Clover Saturday morning about 10 o'clock when he was run over by a Carolina & Northwestern train. The train was being operated as an excursion from Chester to Gastonia, N. C., for the Gaston county fair and when it reached Clover it did not stop. The negro attemped to swing on board the moving train and was thrown under the wheels, his body being badly mangled. Coroner Strait went to Clover to hold the inquest. Beginning next Sunday the Southern's all-steel through train from New York to Augusta will operate. This train will be the, equal of the Southeastern Limited, discontinued last year. Day ^ coaches will be carried betwern Washington and Augusta. The new train will operate, so far as Fort Mill is concerned, about on the schedule now observed by trains 27 and 28. Trains 27 and 28 will operate on the schedule now observed by trains 31 and 32. No. 32 going north will arrive here about 7:00 p. m., while No. 31, going south will reach here about 7:30 a. m. No. 28 will arrive here about 10 p. m. The exact schedules have not been announced. Rural Carrier Examination.

The football pame played between the teams of the York high school and the Fort Mill high school in Rock Hill Friday resulted in a tie, the score being 7 to 7. By a peculiar coincedence, this score is the same as that made during the game between the two teams played on the local grounds about two weeks ago. The two aggregations are very evenly matched and a third game will be necessary to decide which is the stronger team.?York News. ?????^i FOR SALE 80-Acre Farm at Catawba River bridge, near Fort Mill and Rock Hill.
