I WASHINGTON, May 21.-The official
services of Lorrin A. Thurston as Ha-
waiian Minister to the United States
closed today when Frank P. Hastings
presented the State Department his
credentials just received as Charge
d'Affaires.
The official mail from Honolulu ar
rived this morning. It was the first
mail from Honolulu since the recent
press reports from San Francisco Civ
ing an official outline of the purpose
of the Hawaiian Government in Mr..
Thurston's case.
Mr.. Hastings was very reticent as
to his instructions received, but 1T is
known that he was commissioned as
Charge d'Affaires, and also as HawaiTs
Commissioner to the Cotton States
Exposition in Georgia. The matter
caused considerable comment in Off
cial circles for the reason that it was
expected that Hastings would be ap-
pointed Minister to succeed Lorrin A.
Thurston. The fact that no Minister was
appointed, looks as though President
Dole and his Government will not be
in a hurry to nominate a Minister.
Hastings would have been very &C
ceptable, he being persona grata to
Secretary Gresham and all the other
officials of the Government. The ab-
sence of regular Minister will doubt
less lead to unfriendly comments on
the action of the Hawaiian Govern
ment by officials of the Cleveland Ad-
minisCration. In the comments today
it was suggested that President Cleve-
land might recall Minister Willis.
It will be remembered that Italy,
when put out with the massacre of
Italians at New Orleans recalled
Baron Fava and for long time had
no Minister in Washington. The
same condition of affairs resulted early
in the first administration of Presi-
dent Cleveland, when the Austrian
Government refused to accept the
Minister sent there by this Govern
ment on thu ground that he had q
wife of Hebrew extraction and the
laws of that country prevent persons
of Jewish faith from the enjoyment
of any courtesies at court. The ap-
pointment of Hastings as Charge
d'Affaires, therefore, seems to indicate
that Hawaii is disposed to resent the
insult offered her by Secretary
Gresham in demanding the recall of
Minister Thurston.

THE BAZAAR has no desire
to create the impression that
it has bought out the entire
stock of the largest Millinery
and Notion house on the Con-
tinent, nor even to intimate
that its representatives caught
the Gotham villagers asleep, or
that they preceded the high
sheriff in tearing down the
mercantile monuments of pros
perity ; but we got there all the
same. We bought with judg-
ment and in consideration of
the season, and when it comes
to Ladies' Hosiery, Gloves,

Bandana has been somewhat excited
for some time. A Negro boy in pass
ing round the mountain, was severely
pelted with rocks by some one hidden
among the trees. He caught glimpse
Of the person throwing the stones, and
described him as large black Negro.
At first, he WAS thought to be an es-
capped convict; but as nothing more
has been heard of him, it is thought
that the boy was only exercising his
imagination.
The farmers seem to have every
thing heart could desire. The rains
are abundant and the crops fine. If
the seasons continue, Sir Grumble will
have to move his residence to more
unfavorable quarters.
Misses Tommie Culp and Florence
Boyd, of Fort Mill, are visiting Miss
Sallie Campbell, of Energy.
An attempt is being made to pro-
cure Mr.. John A. Barron, of Iorkville,
as the next teacher at Forest Hill.

it can have such All able man as tutor.

Fourth of July.
Yorkville was full of colored people
yesterday, as predicted last week.
They came to celebrate the Fourth of
July. Most of them were from the
country, however. The big crowds
that were expected over the railroads
failed to materialize. The visitors
amused themselves in various ways
and had a good time. Good order
prevailed throughout the day. There
were only two arrests by the police.
The offenders were disorderly town
Negroes.

From the above, it will be noted
that all the townships, save York and
Fort Mill, show greater or less de-
crease, and the whole county shows
an aggregate decrease of $S3,S6O. The
total taxable property in the county,
exclusive of the holdings of railroad,
telegraph, express and insurance COM
panies, of which the auditor as yet has
no record, is s5,279.9S5. The other
property mentioned will run the grand
total up to the neighborhood of s7,O00,-
900.
Further examination of the abstract
shows that there has been large in
crease in the number of pigs this year,
as compared with last. Cattle and
horses show a slight increase, mules
a decrease, and dogs have about held
their own. Except in the case of
dogs-where the value is fixed by
statute-there has been a considerable
decrease in the value Of all animals

BANDANA, July 3.-If an inbabitant
of some other world than ours was to
fud himself possessed of vision pow
erful enough 10 behold this terrestrial
sphere, and were he to dissolve it into
parts, country by country, state by
state, county by county, until he had
fixed those wonderful orbs on our own
little county, aud gazing from district
to district, he would, on beholding the
little "Mountain district" be led to ex-
claim: ga city that is set on a hill
cannot be hid" But were he also
to have a copy of our most estimable
paper--THE YoRKvILLE ENQUIRER
note the absence Of all news pertain
ing to this part of the country in its
columns, he would further add "Those
people are indeed hiding their light
under bushel." But as such sup
position is not probable, we will drop
down a little to reality and one of
their own number lifts his feeble pen
in its behalf.
AS "selfpraise is half scandal" is a
very good motto, we will not attempt
to sing it's praise, but leave for others
more able, to tell of its beautiful
scenery, its good farming lands, etc.
Nothing need be said of its minerals.
They are known far and wide. Not
so we'll known, though, is its min
eral spring.
A few months ago, a mineral COM
pany drilled hole into the mountain
to the depth of 10 feet. When they
finished the work, they filled up the
hole and left it to its fate, little dream
ing that they were hiding from the
public such treasure. But the water
forced itself through the debris, like
it sometimes does in the dikes Of Hol-
land, yet unlike them from the fact
that instead of causing terror and de-
struction, it gives health and strength
to the many, who crowd around daily
to drink its cooling lithia waters.
