Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
BLAcKsBURG, May 21.-The Rev.
Mr.. Winecoff, of Concord, n. c., has
accepted call from the Presbyterian
congregations of misplace and Sharon,
to take charge of their churches. He
will also preach regularly at Cherokee
Falls. Whether he will make Blacks
burg or Sharon his home, has not been
determined yet. He is expected to
enter upon his work here next Sunday.
The commencement exercises of the
Blacksburg graded school, will be
held on Friday evening next (24th) in
the school hall.
The question of building a cotton
mill in our town, has at last assumed
definite shape, and there seems to be
no longer any doubt Of its consumma-
ton. The stockholders Of the Me-
chanics' Building and Loan association,
have determined to invest their capi-
tai, which amounts to about $50, 900,
in the enterprise, and to secure the
balance of the money needed, by
adopting the installment plan of pay
ments. A committee of some of our
best business men was appointed last
week to select site for the building,
and as soon as they make their re-
port and the right to the property
is obtained, work will be begun for its
erection. 1t is needless to say that
this is step in the direction of prog
ress, and the material prosperity of
our town, and all of our citizens
should contribute of their ability to
the aid of so commendable an under
taking.
The lining with lead of the large
acid chambers of the Sulphuric Acid
plant at this place, was completed on
Saturday, and the lead "bumers,"
Messrs. F. Allin and Walter Bixby, Of
Baltimore, Md, left yesterday for
Montgomery, Ala, where they have a
contract of the same KIND as they nave
just finished here.
The third and last new furnace of
the Caloric Reduction works, will be
put in this week, and the whole plant
will soon be in readiness for crushing
and roasting ores and manufacturing
sulphuric acid.
Mr.. J. w. Rhyme, with force of
hands, began last week the grading
for the location Of the phosphate
works, which will be operated in con-
nection with the Reduction and Acid
works. Major John F. Jones, who
has the entire management of the
three plants, is now on business trip
North, but is expected home the last
of this week.
Prof. H. Helms, of New York, and
Mr.. J. n. Brice, of Memphis, Tenn,
arrived here Saturday and are now at
Magnolia gold mine, near Hickory
Grove inspecting the property. -.
Rev. Robt. A Lee, of Yorkville, will

There is little doubt that when Darl-
US Howard departed that morning it
was to learn whether any ono was shad-
owing him. His speedy return showed
that he had not gone far. When he came
back, it was with the intention of NOV
ing with hir wife from the old stone
house, never to return. The occurrences
of the last few days had convinced him
that he had been traced by more than
one enemy :hither, and he could not
leave too SOON.
He had made his arrangements before
I entered the house. Trunks were pack
ed, and all tho luggage which he intend
ed to take was prepared. He had come
to the place with the intention of having
Mr. Bridges carry them to the station,

stairs in the workshop talking with
his wife.

he could, bat discovered his presence

my words as much to him as to his wife.

ing me through the door, though there
can be no certainty on that point.
Mr. Bridges, having agreed to take the
couple and their luggage to town that
afternoon, came home about this time
for that purpose, though his wife was
unaware OF the arrangement. The prep
arations were quickly completed, the
landlord and lady were paid an extra fee
for their trouble, and in less time than
would be supposed Howard and his wife
were in the metropolis Of our country.
This time both weut to the Astor House
instead of lodging at different hotels.
Their departure left the good old
lady, Mrs. Bridges, with al unconscious
man stretched on the floor in one Of her
upper rooms. Before the sound of the

sumo grim1y resolved to sit it out
until she would be compelled to seek
relief. Why should frail, delicate wo-
man be able to take more poison into
her lungs than strong man like my
self? 1t ought to be the other way.
She made no answer to my last ques.
ton, and added
81 do not doubt that the secret rests
with you, and if you choose you can ex,
plain that which is inexplainable to the
rest of us. Now, will give you my
pledge that if you will tell the whole
truth neither you nor your husband
shall be molested or prosecuted in any
way
And of what value is such guar
antee to Us if you had the power to give
it! What protection do we wish? What
have we done that we should fear your
laws?"
Sure enough, since neither had stolen
the ruby, what crime could be imputed
to them! The man had sold all immense
ly valuable gem to John R. Brown, the
JS"eleE VI iouO, loi 1888

with what offense should charge Dari
Us Howard?
All the same there was no doubt that
this man and woman were two Of the
most consummate and subtle offenders
against right that had ever come from
the country of subtlety, cunning, learn
ing and woudrous skill.
"You speak truly, said |, $50 far as
appearances go, but my assumption is
that both you and your husband had a
hand in the robbery"
II will not deny it to you, was the
bold response, "but for US it never could
have taken place. | admit that because
no one except my husband aud yourself
can hear the words Before others !
deny it and say to them, as say now
to you, Prove it. "
But | cannot, and, since you have
said so much to me alone, why not say
more and tell the whole thing? 1t can
cause you no harm.

Our farmers made good use of last

More plowing has been done this

According to the New York World,
President Cleveland, since he sent $500
to the father who named his triplets
Frances, Ruth and Esther, is worried
over the number of letters he receives
from parents who have named their
twins, triplets ard quartettes after
members of his family. That's moth

the South who, about 10 years ago, in
their enthusiasm, named their young
heirs Grover, who would give $500 if
they were able to change their names.

down the following as the conditions
on which it will enter the primary
election proposed by the State Demo
cratic executive committee:
l. That the Tillman, Irby, Evans
and Wilson element guarantee that no
"Straight" Reform tickets or candi-
dates will be run in the primary
against the joint tickets of Reformers
and Conservatives proposed by the
Peace convention and hereinafter in
dicated.
2. That these joint tickets in the
different counties shall be so arranged,
in advance of the primary and for con-
firmation by it, that the Conservatives
and Reformers shall each have, in the
entire State, one-half of the members
of the constitutional convention.
8. That no pledge of action shall be
exacted of the candidates on these
tickets except that they will, if elected,
provide for the honest regulation of
the suffrage and for honest elections,
and will so qualify the suffrage as to
ensure voting majority of whites.
