FORT MILL COTTON MARKET. Cotton, per lb 12J Seed, per bu 60 % I ITEMS OF LOCAL INTEREST. J. L. Norman and family have i ? m this week moved to their new home in Whiteville Park. A > Fred C. Black, whose home is about two-and-a-half miles east ' of Yorkville, had his right arm cut off at the elbow last VVednes- j day evening while feeding a1 corn shredder. The Fort Mill chautauqua is said to have been a losing venture from a financial standpoint. Could this have been due to the fact that "it was not properly advertised?"- York News. ^ J. L. Spratt. L. M. Massey, J. M. YVhite^and R. A. Fulp, of Fort Mill, are among the York county men appointed by Governor Manning as delegates to the Southern Commercial Congress in Charleston next wpo'* Mrs. Mattie Rogers, of this city, on Saturday received a tel egram saying that her son, Roy ' Rogers, was in a hospital in Danville, Va., as a result of having lost an arm in a railroad accident in that city earlier in the day. No details of the accident were given. Rogers is about lb years of age. An enjoyable event of the last week was the annual banquet of the local military company given in the armory Wednesday night. A number of invited guests, tor gether with the members of the company, were present and. after supper, listened to short addresses by Capt. S. W. Parks, Mayor B. E. Patterson and Capt. T. B. Spratt.

Peter Karas, a well known Rock Hill restaurateur, was in Fort Mili Tuesday and completed arrangements for opening in this city an up-to-date restaurant and fruit and candy store. It is understood that the Stewart building on Main street will he occupied by the new business and that the necessary arrangement of the interior of the build ing and the installing of fixtures will be made within a few days. ; The firm of which Mr. Karas is a member operates restaurants in several different cities. Community Day was observed by patrons and friends of the Fort Mill crfldpd school Fridav A large crowd of both men and women gathered at the school building early in the morning and labored untiringly throughout the day in renovating the building and improving the school grounds. As a result of the day's work, and work which has since been done, one would scarcely recognize the place as the same. The work on the grounds is to be continued at intervals until the walks and driveways mapped out have been completed and made permanent. Will Serve Dinner.

Clover, \ork county, the "Last Chance" stand for the morally stuntrA of Gaston county and of,.er adjacent Tar Heel territory, is no longer an open port of entry. As a liquor depot for North Carolinians it is no more. For the last two weeks the number of Gastonians who have traversed the highway from Gastonia to Clover formerly such a popular road has been negligible. The attraction is gone. There is some liquor in the Clover depot consigned to North Carolinians but it is likely to remain there until it is shipped back to t he manufacturers. This condition of affairs came about as the result of a ruling made by .Judge Rice who was holding court at York. He i 1 _ _ i ^ I resurrected an Old dispensary law which says that non-residents cannot come into South Carolina and ^et liquor which has been shipped to them there. He produced the law and there you are. The Clover people tire triad and the North Carolina peoph .hat is some oi them I are mad. NO l ICR OK ELKCTlON.
