THE C. AND L. STOCKHOLDERS.
More Complete Account of Their Meeting
at Hickory Last Thursday.
TO BE CONTINUED FRIDAY

More Complete Account of Their Meeting
at Hickory Last Thursday.
The forms of THE ENQUIRER were
on the press last Thursday afternoon
when we received, by telegraph, Il
short report of the proceedings of the
meeting of the stockholders of the
Narrow Gauge railroad at Hickory.
Mr.. Sam M. Grist, who was secretary
of the meeting, has since handed US
fuller particulars.
The meeting was organized with }.
G.. Hall, of Hickory, as chairman, and
the committee on proxies, after due
investigation, reported that Of the
$500 shares of stock in the road, 2,767
shares were represented.
The report of the finance committee
showed that during the fifteen months
the road has been in the hands of the
stockholders, it has been doing fair
" good business, and on the lst OF
july. 1895, the cash balance i'll the
hands of the treasurer was S5,6l3.
President Harper read his annual
report. 1t dealt exclusively with facts
and figures, and was interesting. The
numerous difficulties with which the
management of the road have had TO
contend were reviewed in an intelli-
gent, business-like manner. 1t set
forth the badly run down condition OF
the road as it was received from the
Richmond and Danville company, and
told of the many and expensive i'm
provements in road-bed, rolling stock,
trestles, fills and embankments and the
purchase of new rails. The report
also stated that all interest on bonds
had either been paid, or would be
paid on presentation Of the coupons.
The action of the Southern Railway
people, who hold SS7 900 worth OF
bonds, in refusing to come into the
agreement by which the interest on a
majority of the bonds was reduced
from 7 per cent. to 5 per cent. was re-
ferred to, as was also the little scheme
on the part of the Southern people to
catch the Chester and Lenoir in close
place.
At the request of President Harper
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1895-07-24

Mr.. A. G. Brice, secretary for the
bondholders outlined plan for refund
ing the entire bonded Indebtedness of
the road, which becomes due and pay
able in the year 1900.
President Harper was reelected by
accamation, and the board Of directors
was elected as follows: J. l.. Agurs
and 4. G.. Brice, of Chester; Jos. F.
Wallace and c. f. Spencer, of York !;
J. B. White, of CASTOR V. \. McBee,
of Lincoln; J. c. Martin, of Catawba {;
P. G.. Moore, of Caldwell. The board
is constituted the same as heretofore
with the exception of Mr.. Martin.
Messrs. J. S. Brice, of York, S. M.
Finger, of Catawba, and NJ. NJ. Court
ney, of Caldwell, were reelected as an
auditing committee.
After the election of officers, reso-
luton was adopted unanimously en-
dorsing the administration of President
Harper. In speaking to the resolution,
Chairman Hall took occasion to
make some very pleasant remarks
about President Harper. Among 9TH
er things, he said that if it is within
the range of human possibility to make
success ofthis undertaking, President
Harper, of all others, is the man to do
it. When the meeting adjourned, it was
to assemble again on the third Thurs
day in July, 1896, at place to be de-
cided upon by the board of directors.

WHY PHYSICIANS Use AN "R. "A
woman of an investigating turn OF
mind started ont the other day to dis
cover why physicians begin their pre-
scriptions with the letter "R." Well,
she found out but it took time and
caused her some trouble. 1t seems
that during the middle ages, when as
trology was in fashion, a character
very much like our "R" was the sign
of Jupiter, the preserver of health.
The physicians, being then equally de-
voted to the science Of medicine and
astrology, invariably began their pre-
scriptions with the following words
SIN the name of Jupiter take the fol-
lowing doses in the order set down
hereinafter" In the course of time
this formula was abbreviated, until at
present only the letter "R" remains to
teach us that the medical art was
once associated with the science Of
the stars.-Boston Traveller.

Correspondence Of the Yorkvlle Enquirer.
BLAcKsBURG, July 23.-The past
week has been one of the hottest we
have felt this summer, and the cool
mountain breezes which render our
place and climate so enjoyable, have
been delightfully."- refreshing and well
come. Occasional rains continue, and
the seasons have been the wonder and
admiration of our farmers, who are
very proud of their splendid crops.
One of our most worthy and observ-
ing citizens wishes to present his COM
pliments to THE ENQUIRER's Chester
weather prophet, and say that his
knowledge of July's weather record
is far more accurate than the predic-
tions of the latter were in regard to it.
TIT will be remembered that our Chester
friend foretold a dry month, and we
have had an abundance of rain.
Robert and Hogue Allison, sons of
Mr.. J. NJ. Allison, of our town, had a
quarrel and fight on Saturday last,
near the home of Hogue, about two
miles from here, in which Robert cut
Hogue very severly with razor. The
two live on adjourning farms, and the
cause of the difficulty between them
was of domestic character. Hogue
| was not injured much during the fight,
and after the heat of passion subsidized,
Robert expressed much sorrow for his
rash deed. Hogue's wounds are not
serious, and he is getting along very
comfortably. The young men are
both industrious and clever and are
among our best farmers, and the un-
fortunate occurrence is to be much
regretted.
supt. A. Trip, of the o. R. & c. R.
R., met Mr.. Zemp, president Of the
Camden cotton Mill, in Charlotte, on
Friday, and signed contract with
him, by which the railroad company
will build a sidetrack from the mill to
their main line. The work is to be
completed in 80 days.
Among the other enterprises of our
town, there is a strong probability of a
cotton seed oil mill being built here
very soon. The site for it has been
given by the stock holders of the Me-
chanics' Building and Loan association,
and it now rests with Mr.. Daniel Bird,
who has the project in hand to locate
the mill at this place.
Mrs. A Trip has returned from a
prolonged visit to her aged parents in
Pittsburg. Pa.
Mr.. Levy Hobbs, Ohio River and
Charleston agent at Yorkville, is here
visiting his mother, Mrs. J. l.. Hart
well, who is quite i'll.

LIGHT ON LOGARlTHMS.
flight of n Lawyer who Insisted That Ma
piers Tables Should he Proved.

An expert engineer in New England
city rendered bill to corporation who
had employed him TO write n technical re-
port. The amount of the fec was large,
the corporation refused to pay 1t, and the
claim was carried into court.
During the trial the counsel for the cor.
poration sought t1 belittle the experts
work, raising questions as to his expert.
ence, and, in fact, to prove that his labor
tyould have been amply rewarded with
lew dollars day.
How did you reach this RESULT" asked
the lawyer, referring to certain calcula.
tion which had involved the use of loga-
! ritlms.
Il consulted Napier's table and''-- but
he got no further.
You consulted Napier's table, did
you''
Yes"
"Do you mean to tell this court that
you, an expert, had to resort to published
tablei Did you prove the figures of that
tableS''
mo, but they have beer proved. They
are considered to be accurate by every
scientific man."
why did you not work out your own
table of logarithmsl Is it not because you
are unable to do sos"
1T is not I am perfectly capable of
preparing such table, but it would have
taken too long time to do so, and so con.
suited the standards. "
I'm order to prove your calculation as
well us your capabilities in this matter"
continued the suspicious lawyer, Il will
now ask you to prepare table Of loga-
! rithms."
Here md nowf" inquired the plaintiff.
II fear it will consume too much of tho
courts time"
This seemed to confirm the lawyers
doubts, and so he insisted the more upon
having a complete table of logarithms pre-
pared.
| The plaintiff smiled malicously, took
| paper and pencil and began his work. II
about five minutes the lawyer asked him
| If he had finished. The plaintiff shook his
head and continued at work. Ten minutes
passed by, and again the question was put:
How nearly finished are your"
Very far from finished" remarked the
plaintiff.
well, may ask how long 1t will take
you to prepare table such as Napier'si
You seem to be very slow about it"
The expert hesitated a little and then
replied: estimate that, working alone, /
might be able to complete it in about g
years, working day and night. 1t took
Napier and five assistants seven years to
prepare his table, but l am less familiar
with the calculation than he was, and, as
you say, work slow Still In 10 years l
think can complete It,"
1t is unnecessary to say that the lawyer
was not little taken aback by the answer,
which enlightened him a trifle on the sub
ject. He withdrew the questions, and
eventua " the expert won his case.-New

A Ghost at the window.

A practical joke was played upon the
archbishop of York on recent Sunday
evening in suburban church near .ondon.
His lordship was in the midst of n most
moving discourse when unearthly proans
and cries, rs of some creature in dire mental
and bodily distress, were heard proceeding
from one of the windows. The archbishop
stopped speaking, and all eyes were turned
fearfully toward the window.
In another moment the window sash was
suddenly and noiselessly raised A phastly,
grinning human skull appeared, hovered
momentarily in midair and as quickly van
ished. Women tainted, mon howlcd, and
the archbishop gasped and turned white,
although, of course, being gavery learned and
godly prelate, he knew it could only be a
poor joke.
Some strong nerved and brawny young
members of the congregation rushed into
the graveyard oIpside, but in the pitch
darkness could discover neither the Joker
nor his property skull. Meanwhile the
more hysterical women had been removed
to the vestry, and the archbishop, pulling
himself together, resumed his sermon with
out making any reference to the apparition.
The window, however, all the evening ex-
ercised disturbing fascination. More
eyes were turned to it than to the preacher
and the effect of the discourse was entirely
spoiled.
II the jokers can be found, they will be
charged under an ancient statute with
brawling in church. The lawyers hope
they will be caught, so that the interesting
| question may be argued. How can any
| body brawl in church il he does not enter
the sacred buildingY- New York Suns Lon
