Through one of their number, Wi
Hughes, application was made to tt
railroad authorities for five coachi
for Aug. 7th and Sell, and the excu
sion was advertised accordingly. TI
railroad people notified them thi
they could not furnish couches f<
7th und 8th, but could furniMh thei
for 14th and 15th, they agreed to th
and a contract was drawn up an
sont here for signature. It happens
that the railroad people made a
' error and while they intended I
3 make the date in the contract re?
14th and 15th they drew it up for 7t
B >md 8th, this contract was signed an
, $100 forfeit was put up, and the a<
vertlsing literuture remained as orij
inally for 7th and 8th. The railrou
authorities discovering their mistuh
wired that they could not furnis
the coaches on 7th and 8th. Th
colored people it seems wanted t
hold the railroad to the contract, an
a number of telegrams were sent, th
' road insisted Fnat they could nc
furnish the coaches on those date
and would not do so, the last notic
. to that effect coming by wire at
o'clock Tuesday, and the committe
was notified to come and get the foi
feit back. When they went for i
tho agent had made his rem it tunc
and told them to come for it by 1
o'clock Wednesday morning by whic
time he would have made his collec
tions, they did not call for it it seem
uutil about one o'clock. They ha
in the meantime sent word in ever
dirqption that the excursion woul
not be run as they could not get th
coaches. The agent would not refnn
the forfeit until he got the contrac
[ back. Late Wednesday afternoon h
received instructions that the coache
? would be furnished and he at one
notified the committee, they told hit;
? they had notified everybody it woul

ever, Wednesday night and Thursda
morning, to get out notice and se!
' tickets, but as only about $100 wort
of tickets were sold aud the prico o
the train was $125 they threw up th
gamo, and returned the money fo
the tickets sold, and say they ar
going to law with the matter,!

' A Bad Wind at Monarch.
On Wednesday afternoon about
o'clock a hard wind struck the town til
a ing the air with dust and sending serai
of paper and small movable object
3 whirling through the air. The win
. was followed by a good shower of rain
r We learned by phone a few minutes afu
s the storm had passed that a man ha
been killed and several injured at Mot
e arch. Going at once to Monarch w
8 found that the large two-story buildin
that was being erected just above L. I
Smith's store for a school room, ha
r aud post olUee, had been blown dowr
i The building was 23 feet wide by 7
feet long, the two stories together beinj
1 24 feet high.
The wind was seen to be coming an
the workmen on the scaffolds hastens
i to the ground. Instep of leaving th
building, however, they began woikiuj
on the ground on the upper and lowe
side of the building. A bard gust o
wind struck the building corning Iron
west and the.structure being only a hul
with the roof on, all the openings gav*
the wind fair play and the buildinj
toppled over on those who were on th*
r upper side. Help soon arrived when i
* r J it-.r w * "
t woa iuuiiu urns jar. j. McUoJn had beei
killed outright by having his hear
, crushed iu by the falling timliers, whih
. Mr. Tom Long who was found witl
r him had his hip broken. Mr. Clarence
Vaughn received a bad hurt on hi;
shoulder and his face and head was eu
' and bruised. Mr. Venge Tucker liac
1 his hand mashed and shoulder hurt,
1 Mr. O. K. Harris had his arm cut by i
' nail, and a negro, .Jesse Carter, was
t slightly injured but very narrowly es
j crped death bv falling Lehiud a tool
Chest which kept the timbers off him
Mr. Harris also had a narrow escap?,
but being iu front of one of the openings
the timbers missed him. They weie ali
} taken from under the roof which had
. not collate !, this fact probably saved
f the lives of the others. Mr. John A
, Fant, president of the mill, was soor
, upon the scene. Physicians were sum
. moncd and everything passible was dotu
j for the wounded. None of them art
. considered to be seriously injured witl
. the exception of Mr. Tom lx>ng. Ni
f other damages was done by the wlnt
. except the partial unroofing of the dyt
j house at the knitting mill.

Mr. J. McJ. Fant, of Santuc, has
j. sold fifty bushels of corn and has
, fifty more bushels for sale. That
1 sounds good. We like to hear of our
u farmers having not only corn enough
r to do them but also some to sell, true
a this ought to be the general rule, but
I sad to say it is the exception to the
l rule. Mr. Fant also raises his own
1 meat, and he usually sells from $25
i to $50 worth of fodder every year,
f He knows how tf? fltrm Hn liwoa nt
; home, boards at the same place and
* supplies his own table. He says if
j1 he doesn't got another drop of rain
he will make corn enough to do him
' two years. Hurrah for Mr. Fant!
( these kind of farmers are a blessing
to the country, they set an example
I worthy of emulation.
