Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer.
Rock HILL, May Rock Hills
bid for the Epworth Orphanage was
forwarded to Columbia last night. 1t
offers q tract of so acres and $4,000 in
money. The proposed site is very
desirable one, being situated at the
northwestern extremity of Main street,
a short distance from the Industrial
college. All except a few acres of
land was donated by Senator D. E.
Finley, Mr.. s. NJ. Fewell and the Rock
Hill Land and Townsite company.
The rest was purchased with subscrip-
tions from citizens.
Protracted services are being held at
the Methodist church in this city every
day this week. Preaching every
morning and evening by the pastor,
Rev. H. B. Browne. There seems to
be deep interest prevailing the congre-
cations attending these services, and
the meeting will probably be continued
several days longer.
Mr.. w. H. Wylie has gone to Colum-
bia to enter upon the duties of the
position to which he was recently elect
ed by the board of regents of the State
lunatic asylum. There is universal re-
greet here at having to give up citizen
so highly respected and so eminently
useful in his community, though his
many friends are glad to know that his
worth and ability have been recognized
by the management of one of our most
important State institutions in calling
him to a position of profit and respon.
sibility.
Quite curious fact has been brought
to light here recently in the exhuming
and reinterring of dead bodies in one
part of our city cemetery, this change
being made necessary by the widening
of Laurel street. With the consent Of
all parties interested, the keeper of the
cemetery, Mr.. Devinney has been 60
ing forward with this work for the last
two weeks, and few days ago, while
removing the body of woman who
died about six years ago, he found that
petrifaction had taken place. The
body was not decomposed in the least !;
had a white, chalky appearance, and
was as hard and as heavy as stone.
Mr.. Devinney says this is the second
case of the kind he has met with dur
the past year.
Last night Oakland Park pavilion
was the scene of very enjoyable ger
man, given by the young men of Rock
Hill, complimentary to the following
visiting young ladies Misses Clyburn
and Eldridge, of Camden Misses Rena
and Lottie Chafee, Lancaster Miss
Henderson, Charleston Miss Sumner,
Lincolnton, n. c.; and Miss Ma
belle Seay, Rome, Ga. Besides these,
many of Rock Hills fair daughters
graced the occasion with their presence
and the dancing was kept up until the

g, C.. Dickson O Forger.

Greenville has a sensation. 1t de-
velops that S. c. Dickson, the leading
real estate dealer of the city, is for
ger, and that his forgeries have extend
ed over a period of 90 years. His
forgeries were confined to the charac'
ter of papers used in the real estate
business. He would make deeds to
himself of imaginary lands, signing
fictitious names, and then use the pa
pers as collateral on which to borrow
money. When the loans became due,
he would manage to take them up with
other forged papers. The first discov-
cry of his forgeries was made by the
Greenville Savings bank, and the war
rant for his arrest was sworn out by
President Norwood of that institution.
Holders of papers forged by Dickson
will lose from $4,000 to $4,000.

The Missouri legislature is not dis
posed to put up with any monkey bu'
siness on the part of Great Britain with
the Monroe doctrine. Last Monday
it passed a resolution calling the at
tention Of the administration to the
fact that John Bull had invaded the
territory of Nicaragua, and recon-
mended that the old buffer be elected
"peaceably if possible, forcibly if nee
essary; but elected" This senti
ment has grown quite popular in al
parts of the country within the past
few days.

A STRANGE CASE.

In some respects, the case of CASH
ier Holland, of the Merchants and
Farmers National Bank Of Charlotte,
is one of the strangest on record. 1t
is especially strange in that though the
man is confessedy a forger and default
er, he is not deserted by his friends.
The news of Cashier Hollands de-
falcation fell upon his hundreds of
friends like an electric shock. They
were dazed and dumfounded, because
he was the last man in the world of
whom they would have ever expected
anything that was not altogether
straight. That they should be dazed
and dumfounded is not surprising, and
neither is it surprising that they should
be grieved. But, Notwithstanding
their amazement and grief, they never
lost confidence in their old friend.
This is what strikes us as remarkably
strange.
Sympathy is deceptive quantity.
When good man meets with misfor-
tune of any kind, he is seldom at a
loss for the sincere and practical SYM
pathy of hosts of friends. This SYM
pathy is of such a nature that, for the
time being, it will usually make any
sacrifice; but, as rule, it is short
lived. After the first great shock of
the moment passes away, the sympa-
thy that will make sacrifices even for
a friend, begins to grow weaker and
weaker, and finally disappears alto
gether.
Upon the first discovery Of Hollands
shortage, numerous friends seriously
discussed a proposition for each of
them to chip in and make it good.
Had Holland not disappeared when
this proposition was in high favor, it
is possible that it may have been car
ried out but, on his disappearance,
of course it was dropped, and there was
reason to believe that his friends were
about ready to give him up. But not
so.
A preliminary examination was
held on Tuesday, and Hollands bond
was fixed at $4,000. In view of all
that had occurred, who would have
believed that he would ever be able to
get up the necessary security? There
was no trouble whatever. Two men
Immediately went forward and signed
the bond, justifying in the sum of
$4,000 each. Then others came for
ward and signed until the paper was
secured to the extent of S9l, 700.
Whatever Mr.. Holland may have
been in the past, he is now only an
ordinary defaulter, and that his friends
should still have confidence in him
after more than two weeks of ref1ec-
ton, is more than passing strange.
Perhaps the people of Charlotte un-
derstand the case but we confess that
to US it is surprising. There is hardly
as much human nature in it as might
ordinarily be expected, and that is why
it is so difficult to understand.

against protection, and whose admin
istration has been arrayed against it,
can secure the support of the Repub-
licans. The responses from Democrats
show that they are widely divided in
their opinions. They are either Bit
terly hostile to Mr.. Cleveland or warm
ly favorable. The Democrats who
think he may run for a third term,
however, insist that it must be as the
candidate of some other party than
their own.

"A bill has been introduced in the
Illinois legislature to enjoin the wo-
men of Illinois not to marry foreign
ers. We have not seen copy of the
bill; but unless it contains provision
to deprive foreigners of the women's
fortunes, it is not apt to have much ef-
feet. As a rule, it is not the Illinois
girls the foreigners are after so much ;
but their money.

1T PLEASED THEM
Butte Ladies Listen to Mrs. 4. NJ. Hab-
erly's Lecture

Butte Ladies Listen to Mrs. 4. VI. Hab-
erly's Lecture.
BUTTE, Jan. 5.-Mrs. Frances NJ. Hab.
erlys second lecture on Leonardo da
Ninci" was given in the art room of the
public library this morning at 10 80
o'clock. Mrs. Haberly's lectures are con-
fined to the great painters of the renais-
sance, but she prccedes each lecture with
talk on three or four of the lesser ones.
Yesterday morning the talk was on Gina
bue, Giotti and Taddeo Gaddi, and a most
interesting trio they are. Mrs. Haberly
has the faculty of bringing these artists
before her class so clearly that they seem
like living beings. She told a very anus
ing anecdote concerning Taddeo Gaddi.
On her first visit to Oxford the pupils of
the college were so carried away by the
beauty and the music of the Italian names
as Mrs. Haberly gives them, they we're
constantly repeating them, but affairs
eliminated one mording in the Bible
class when the teacher asked the class
WHO was the oldest of Jacobs sons ?''
and a girl promptly replied, "Taddeo
Gaddi."
Mrs. Haberly showed two fine views of
Giotto's BELL Tuner and also photo
graphs of The p bas reliefs at the base of
THIS tower, representing in their entirety
the history OF civilization. This was won
derfully interesting. She said: 1.-The
average traveller never sees these sculp-
lures, and if he does, he has no idea what
they mean." She also told the history of
the rise of the two great mendicant
orders, the Franciscans and the DOM
inicans, and gave the most vivid account
of the life of st. Francis of Assist, then
showed photographs of the frescoes by
Grotto in Santa Luce, Florence, represent
ing scenes from the life of st. Francis.
She also explained fresco painting. paint
ing, painting IN distemper, chiaro-cscura,
aud the like.
Then came the lecture on Leonardo da
Vinci, which was listened to with the deep-
est interest. Mrs. Haberty is beautiful
reader, every word as distinct as a crys-
tai, and her pronunciation of both Eng
lish and Italian is perfect, She is an ex-
ceedingly graceful speaker and holds her
audience spell bound from first to last.
Her analysis of Leonardo's masterpiece,
The Last Supper" and her character
sketch OF Leonardo was very fine. ANY |
who misses the opportunity of |
taking these lectures, misses one of the |
opportunities of her life.
Mrs, Haberly paid the library a great |
when she said that the class |
would find any book on art and the |
artist that they could possibly desire right |
in their own public library. And that it |
was the only library outside of the great |
cities, in her knowledge, where such a |
thing would be possible.
