not only by the members of his owr
church; but by all the people of York
vile, old and young, who have by any
chance been thrown into his company
News of his untimely death fell like pail
over the entire community. His burial
took place in the Episcopal buryina
ground at Abbeville, yesterday (Friday,
afternoon. G. w. s. Hart, Esq, DR.. r
A. Bratton, Mr.. w. F. Marshall and Mr.
and Mrs. w. B. Moore left here Thurs
day afternoon to be present.
The funeral of Miss Tillman took place
at High View church, IL miles from
Trenton, yesterday, and was attended by
nearly all of the state house officials along
with great concourse of friends from the
country surrounding. Miss Tillman was
about 20 years Of age. She had just been
graduated from Winthrop, and had gone
to the mountains as guest Of Miss Nettit
Adickes of Hendersonville, N. c., to en-
Joy portion of her summer vacation
Her death is a terrible blow to her par
ents, brothers and sisters and friends, anC
in its deep sorrows the bereaved family
has the sympathy of the entire state.

& C. mail Tuesday afternoon, rather than
censure us for this little shortcoming, we
believe that our readers will gladly con-
cede that we did pretty well. However,
we regret the blunder all the same and beg
to apologize.
Mr.. Bryan a Patriot.
He had no thought of politics. He just
expressed the honest conviction Of q
preacher and a teacher. Rev. A. N.
Brunson lectured to his Sunday school
class last Sunday afternoon on the selec-
ton of David as King of Israel. He ex-
planned that David's special fitness lay in
the fact that he recognized that be was
merely the servant and not the master Of
the people. Then, by way Of illustration,
Mr.. Brunson went on to say that Mr..
Cleveland's administration has been
failu re for the reason that it has been for
the benefit of only few, and, In conclu-
sion, the speaker referred to the message
in which Mr.. Bryan declares that, II elect
ed, be will not stand for q second term.
This, said Mr.. Brun ON, goes to show
that Mr.. Bryan is a real patriot who has
no other object than the happiness and
welfare Of the people. A gentleman who
has given considerable study to the causes
of the present rev olution was among Mr..
Brunson's auditors, and he says that 1t
was with the greatest difficulty he could
refrain fr ON clapping bis hands.

CHESTER AND LENOIR.

The annual meeting of the stockholders
of the Chester and Lenoir railroad was
held at Gastonia, N. c., on last Thursday
and organized by the election of Mr.. j. b.
White of CASTOR, as chairman, and Messrs.
J. J. Mcclure and L. T. Nichols Of Ches'
ter, as secretaries.
The report of Receiver Harper, as pres
ident and treasurer of the old organiza'
ton, was read, and showed that the earn
ings of the road up to the 10th of January
last, when the road went into the hands o.
receiver, amounted to $4,000 more than
for the previous year.
The old organization was continued by
the reelection of g. w. F. Harper as
president and treasurer ]. j. Mcclure as
secretary; and the old board of directors
There was no other business OF impor.
tance to be transacted and the meeting
adjourned.
Mr.. A. G. Brice, of the reorganization
committee, made statement that will be
of interest to the stock holders. 1t was tc
the effect that the work of reorganization
is moving along satisfactorily and will nc
doubt be carried out to original intentions.
The reorganization scheme, in brief, is
this: The road will 60 to sale and be
bought by the bondholders, most o.
whom have come into the arrangement
and to the present stockholders will be
issued new stock to the extent OF 81 pei
cent, of the amount now held.

ing expeditions, Maceo went, without
authority from Garcia and took posses
sion of the arms and ammunition, etc.
Garcia protested against such proceed
ings, but Maceo paid no attention to
him. About week ago the fllibuster
"Three Friends," landed an expedi-
ton and Maceo went to the coast with
about $50 men and took charge of it.
On his return he was fred on from
ambush and killed, it is thought, with
the connivance of Garcia. Macec was
a Negro and besides the jealousies
existing on account of authority, etc.,
a strong race feeling is also growing in
the insurgent army, and as the result,
the present situation is anything but
encouraging for the Cuban cause.

KILLED BY LIGHTNING.

A terrible tragedy, the news Of which
has cast deep gloom over the town o.
Yorkville, and in many hearts through
out the county and state, occurred en- Ricf
mountain, six miles from Brevard, Tran
sylvania county, n. c., last "Wednesday
afternoon at. $50 o'clock. 1t was the Kill
ing of Rev. Robert A. Lee, rector OF tht
"Church of the Good Shepherd" of York
vile, and Miss Addie, eldest daughter O
Senator Tillman, by lightning.
The first news of the shocking occur
renee was telegraphed here from Hender
sonville on Thursday morning by Mr.. H
F. Adickes, ST., but fuller particulars ap'
peared in The Columbia State of Friday
morning. The deceased were members o.
a party that had been formed to ascend
the mountain. The other members o.
the party were Mr.. H. F. Adickes, Jr.
Misses Nettie Adickes, May CBryan
Lizzie Bingham, Annie Warren, Messrs
NJ. D. Cooper and T. c. McNeely.
The party was on horseback, and when
within three-quarters of mile OF the toI
of the mountain, was forced to return on
account of terrific thunderstorm. The
nearest refuge from the storm was the
Trescott house, some few hundred yards
away; but it happened that Miss Till
mans horse was afraid of thunder, and
Mr.. Lee and Mr.. NLcNeely stopped under
a tree in order that Mr.. McNeely might
change with her. Just after the change
was made, with Mr.. McNeely on the
ground and Mr.. Lee and Miss Tillman
on horseback, the fatal bolt came. Mr.
McNeely's horse was knocked down ano
he was severely shocked. Upon his re-
covery moment later he discovered that
both Mr.. Lee and Miss Tillman had been
instantly killed. Neither moved muscle
after the shock, and no marks were lefl
on the body of either.
Rev. Robert Alexander Lee was the
second son of Mr.. Joseph F. and Mrs
Mar. ha B. Lee of Due West, S. c., and
brother of Mrs. B. H. Grier of Yorkville,
and was about % years of fage. He was
graduated from Erskine college in June,
1887, with every honor in his class. Then
he taught school at Hopewell for year
and in Virginia year, after which for
about 8 months he filled the chair of Greek
and German at Erskine. Next he took a
three years course in the theological SEM
mary at Suwannee, Tenn, and in October,
1894, began to serve the "Church of the
Good Shepherd" at Yorkville as minister.
Later he gave portion of his time also to
the church at Blacksburg, and in Novem-
ber oflast year, he was regularly ordained
to the priesthood. He was young man
of unusual ability and noble Christian
character, and was loved and esteemed

LETTER FROM HO0DT0WN.
Broad River Is Raging-Some Fine Cows
These-Personal and Other Notes.


These-Personal and Other Notes.
Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer.
HooDTowN, July 15.-Last week will
likely go down to history as one of the
wettest times on record since the flood
30 it seemed to some of us at least. The
ground has been thoroughly saturated,
and on this account the wind storm OF
last Tuesday did considerable damage to
both cotton and corn. Corn was badl y
blown down and twisted about and the
roots so injured as to very materially les
sen the yield, which before was very
promising. While great damage was
done by all the streams, both large and
small, the river has probably destroyed
a greater amount of corn than the other
watercourses, by remaining up 80 much
longer. Broad river was about as high as
it usually gets, being according to con-
servative estimate over 20 feet above low
water. It Is to be hoped that we will not
have a repetition of this freshet, as little
later on incalculable damage would re-
suit.
The school at this place was reopened
Monday, with Miss I. May Crosby again
at the helm.
Messrs. Jno. E. Bankhead and son j.
Walter, have secured several counties as
their territory, in view Of selling the
Planters Register. The latter left Mon
day for Mcdowell county, N. c., where
he will labor for few weeks. -
Miss Bessie Hopper Of Fflbert, who has
been visiting Miss Lula Dowdle, returned
home today.
Mrs. Dovie Weir of Kings Mountain,
N. c., is visiting at her brothers, Mr..
John T. Wilson's near here. a..
Mrs. Jno. E. Plexico has been quite in
disposed for several days. :
There are several cases of chills and
fever in this section.
Mr.. w. s. Plexico. was rather ION the
left" last week, probably on account OF
of having had too big time at Lockhart
on the 4th inst. :.
Messrs. J. D. Good and R. B. Black vie
with each other as to the possession OF the
finest cow. Mr.. Goods cow gives about 5
gallons of milk day and sufficient for
the calf in addition, and he says, with
proper feed and attention, 1t would easily
give or gallons. Mr.. Black has two
COWS giving milk which he says will give

Most of the New York papers have
bolted the platform but The Journal, one
of the ablest and most powerful OF them
all, stands by the Democracy. On last
Monday, it sent out 100 reporters to inter-
view every man they met, as to how they
intended to vote in November. These
reporters got the preferences of lO,loz
voters, of whom $685. happened to be ne
p ublicans, and 4,4S7 Democrats. OF the
Democrats, 92s said they would vote fol
Mckinley, and ofthe Republicans 532 said
they would vote for Bryan. The total

Killed the Peacemaker.
A bloody tragedy occurred at Rich
burg last Saturday. James Creech
and William Creech were in brennan
& Gill's store, intoxicated and quar-
reling about the number of shirts each
owned. Mr.. Gill, an old man and one
of the members of the firm had some
thing to say, and the Creeches drew
their knives. Young J. B. brennan, a
clerk in the store, drew a revolver in
defense Of Mr.. Gill. The Creeches
advanced and brennan commenced
firing. One of the Creeches was hit
in the arm but not seriously hurt. G..
D. Kennedy, who was behind the
Creeches, trying to make them behave
themselves, was struck in the eye and
died from the effects of the wound on
Saturday night. Young brennan, who
is a man of good character, went to
Chester and surrendered to the sheriff.

From Chicago, Mr.. Bryan went tc
Salem, ILL.,, where he had spent his early
boyhood. He was received by the people
with the greatest enthusiasm and made
them splendid speech. On leaving fol
Nebraska, the railroad people offered
him the complimentary use of special
car. Unfriendly papers say that in de-
clining the offer he was discourteous to
the railroad people. The railroad people
however, say this is not true. Mr.. Bryan
simply thanked them and said that he
preferred to travel as any other ordinary
passenger.
