^ Orders Election on Bond Issue.
Action was taken at a meeting
of town countil Tuesday night
in a matter of vital interest to
the community, a matter which
has been too long deferred,
which is the permanent improvement
of the streets of the town.
A petition having been received
signed by a majority of the freeholders
of the town requesting
an election for the issue of $30,000
street bonds, council ordered
an election to be held on March
11. In connection with the proposed
bond issue it is expected
One of which will lea'd from the
northern limit of the town on
the Charlotte road to the bridge
across Catawba nver leading to
Rock Hill, and the other will
branch to the east and lead to
the eastern limit of the town toward
Bailee' bridge which connects
York and~Lancaster counties.
The proposition to assess
abutting property owners to secure
additional funds will not be
considered at this time.
Council also approved the recommendation
of the committee
Ion streets to employ a superintendent
of streets at a salary of
$100 per month, who will devote
his time to the betterment of
street conditions. The reorganization
of the fire department
was among other matters disposed
of at this meeting.
k
Severely Shocked by Electric Wire.
Phillips Hughes, the ten year
old son of Mr. and Mrs. E. L.
Hughes, had a narrow escape
from death Saturday afternoon
wirea of the Luther Pow?rcompany
vyhich pass through town
carrying about 10,000 volts. The
boy conceived the idea of charging
an exhausted battery by
, N standing on the top of a warev-bpuse
near his home and casting
a^ire across the power wires to
which he intended to attach the
battery. Probably the rubber
covering of the roof and the fact
that the small wire was burned
in two in the second that it
touched the power wire were the
means of saving his life.
J. B. Culp Dead.
James Buchanan Culp died at
his home in Fort Mill Monday
illness and
born in this community and
spent the greater part of his life
here, though he lived at times
in Charlotte, Rock Hill and Chester.
He was in the 64th year of
having been born October
29, 1856. He is survived by
