farmers, and they have made good (
headway in their crops. The pros- <
pcct at present is good for both corn (
and cotton. VVe had a good shower
of rain Sunday evening, and ycster- j

storm, hut no rain, as the cloud |
went above. ! ]
The :>rd quarterly conference for <
the Jonesville charge will bo held <
jit New Hope Church the 5th of ]
July.
Politics are not being much talked |
yet. The fact is, our people don't .
care for heated campaigns any j
more. ' '
I
The grand jury in their last pre-1 ]
sentment com pi i men ted the good \
work done upon the public road (
from Union to the Beaty place. If ,
they will come up and look over the
roads aliont Jonesville I don't think |
they will brag on any of tl em.
Some of our roads are no\y and '
have been for some time in dreadful i <
condition, and it is but little com- ]
fort to our people to hear of good ,
roads away off in some other parts |
of the County. Mr. Beaty Smith;;
was up here last week for a few days <
with the county road machine, and .
perhaps he made some improvement
of some of the bad places. . |
Mrs. .J. L. McWhirter returned |

Gamblers.
Lockiiakt, June 2.~>.?This locality
has I men visited by continued
rains, Saturday, Sunday and Monday
evenings. The rain was uerotupanied
by some wind and considerable
thunder and lightning.
. Died at Lock hurt on the 21st,
inst., Ncely Cla V, aged 23 years_^
He leaves a young wife and had
l men married only a few months. |
He was physically as well developed?
man as one would meet in a
lay's ride. His remains were
mried in his native county, Chester.
Died this evening at the home of
tiis sister, Mrs. Sarah Barnes, Mr.
1. M. Sanders, aged ~>3 years. Mr.
Sanders was from Chester County,
l)Ut for some years he lived at l'aelet.
He came here on a visit, lie
vas afflicted with so ne derangment
)f the heart, which was the cause
?f his death.
Mr. W. T. Garner has resigned

Mills to take effect at an early day.
Who will succeed him does not as
yret appear. Mr. Garner was well i
liked hy all and we regret very
much that he has resigned. His >
lirst services were as second hand
in the weave room, and then as I
overseer of weaving, and then as]
niperintendent.
Hines Lodge No. 92, K. of P.,
litis decided to huy a I'd vary. The
books and furniture will soon he on
hand. The management of the
mill has given them the use of a
large room next to the Castle Hall
on .the same lloor for that purpose.
The TiOckhart team crossed hats
with the Monarch team last Saturday.
The rain prevented the game
heing finished. We suppose the
Loekhart team was glad to see the
rain as the Monarch team was
ahead.
Mr T. J. Dighy has resigned his
position as overseer <>f weaving.
Last night policeman Broom
made a raid on a party of negroes
in an outhouse supjiosed to he gambling.
He captured a haker's dozen
or more, some two or three making
good their escape. The exact particulars
I have not ln#n able to obtain.

Blind Tiger in Waste House.
Aliout one month ago it was reported
to policeman McKissick that
there was a blind tiger over on the
Union Cotton Mills side. l"|>on investigation
it was discovered that it
was in the waste house of the Union
Cotton Mills, and was being operated
by Jeff Patterson, colored. In his
locker were found a small quantity
of liquor and all necessary adjuncts
for carrying on the business, such as
2orks, bottles and measuring pots. I
He was arrested and the three ]
charges were preferred against him.
He was found guilty on all these
charges, and Mayor Young gave
ffim the limit?8100 or thirty days
on each charge, making a total of
8300 or ninety days. Mayor Young
stated to those present in the court
that he wanted it circulated that the
blind tiger business in Union had to
st >p. Th se present on the raid
were Policemen MeKissick, Constal.l~
