hast Friday Miss Annie (Iault, a
daughter of Mr. William (1.(iault
who lives near Lockhart Junction,
died after only a few days illness.
Mr. Henry (iault has hecn quite
unwell for some time, and last week
la; went to Spartanburg and had an
operation performed on him. l)r*.
Southard and Chambers went up
and assisted I>r. Heinitsh in the operation,
and Mr. (iault is doing
very well.
Last Saturday evening a >oung
negro man was killed by falling
from the top of a freight ear about
three fourths of a mile above Joncs*
ville. The t'nion engine as it usually
<loes every evening goes to
Spartanburg with a cab and sometimes
a few ears, and returns the
same evening with a train of such
ears as are at Spartanburg for
Cnion and intermediate stations.
This train last Saturday in going to
Spartanburg, e insisted of an engine,
one box ear fa ml caboose. It
passed through Jonesville about 1
p. m.,-and made no stop at the
s tat ion. Several people noticed the
5 ' train and saw a negro man on top
of the Ihix ear and after the train
passed the tank, those that saw the
negro say lie. was lying on his huek
with his lower legs hanging down
over the edge of the ear, and .about
half a mile north of the tank the
negro fell from the ear and was
discovered by the train crew, and
the train stopped and backed to the
negro and be was dead. The coro
ner was phoned for and Sheriff
Sanders phoned back to Magistrate;
J. \V. Bates to hold an inquest,
which he did yesterday. Magistrate
Hates ordered the body of the j
dead man carried to a house near by
. . and kept over Saturnay night and
the inquest was held yesterday
morning, and.the verdict of jury
' f,\ was, that tin* deceased came to his
death either by lining struck by the
iron spout of the tank or by the fall
from the .top of the box ear, or by
both, as bis bead had a bad wound
upon it. In either event the railroad
was in no way to blame. The
negro worked at 'Ldckhart Junction

News From Santuc.
Santuc, May 8.?We had a little
tight "up town" Saturday evening
that resulted in some good exorcise.
Mr. Rennold Owen who has been
attending school at Cokesbury re- j
turned home Saturday. '
(Hit worms are reported more here (
than ever known before. It is almost
a waste of time to set out
plants in the gardens, for they cut
the plants terribly, and you can
find them almost as freely as one
can find earthworms.
The river did not rise much last
week, but a telegram predicting a
big rise came, and all of the machinery
at the dam on Neal Shoals
was taken out of the water's way.
Work was delayed only for a few
days. A little rise elsewhere counts
as a good big one when it gets to
the dam.
There has been a walk-way constructed
across the swampy creek
bottoms on the road leading from
Santuc to Neal Shoals. That is
"news," and now people can walk
across without getting their feet wet
or muddy, as they were wont to do
for the last four years.
Apple trees are becoming badly
diseased, as the tender twigs arc
dying hack from one to four inches.
Some contend that it is caused by
frost, hut the cold winter did not
kill some of the very twigs that are
dying now, and too, frost never
l>ores a hole down the twig, and
some began to die before the frost,
so others contend that it is some insect
pest, others that it is a fungus
disease. I
I went to tTnion 5th Saturday
and Sunday to attend the Sunday
School convention, to mingle with
friends, to gain some information,
to pick up some knowledge and to
see. All of this I hope I accomplished.
1 was paid for my trip,
and the time consumed. It will
not, or may not be of interest to
others to give the proceedings in
detail, but suffice it to say the convention
was interesting, especially
to those who can l>e interested in
such, and very instructive. It was
a good meeting?enthusiastic?and
the Sunday exercises drew a large
crowd, all of the denominations of
religion meeting at the First Baptist
church, in which tho convention
met, it l?eing the formal opening
of she lniautiful edifice to worship.
The delegates and visitors
to the convention were very warmly
entertained. I never saw hosts
more enthusiastic in entertaining
man itcic tiiUL 1'ifDt CIIU1CI1
congregation in entertaining their
guests. As for myself, I cannot
speak high enough of the cordial
entertainment that I was a recipient
of. I felt compelled to divide my
i time, and the sum would not admit
i of more divisions, and believe I
could forget it. 1 was entertained
while there by Mr. and Mrs. C. K.
Lipscomb, Mr. and Mrs. W. II.
Poole, Mrs. Mary Gilliam and Mr.
and Mrs. J. A. Wilburn, with
, several more outstanding invitations
that I could not accept on account
of time and room. I feel that 1
have many kind friends, both male
and female, and some interesting
young lady friends in Union, all of
which I appreciate, and wish I had
iime 10 hco more of them, hut time
is short iind crowded and one must
needs to hurry around. Oh yes, I
enjoyed myself, and am very glad
that 1 went there. 1 always look
forward to having a fine time when
I am preparing to take an outing at
such places.
