A Cotton Factory at Last-Marriage of Mr..
Ross and Miss Gwinn.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
BLAcKsBURa, May 2l.-Several inef-
fective attempts have been made during
the past three years to get money enough
together to build cotton factory at
Blacksburg. The money was here; but
it seemed, land such has been the expe-
rience of many new and small towns)
that the failure always resulted from
want of united effort upon the part of the
leading citizens. A little over year age
the Mechanics Building and Loan asso-
citation, of which DR.. j. T. Darwin was
president and d. D. CASTOR, secretary and
treasurer, determined to make another
effort to gather up money and material
for the cotton mill. The work, though
slow, progressed apace, until a commits
sion was obtained for organizing the
Blacksburg Cotton Mill company and
opening books of subscription to the capi-
tai stock thereof. Our leading citizens en-
tered with hearty good will into the
enterprise, and in short time S52, 100 was
subscribed. a meeting of the subscribers
was held on Thursday last, and the coin
pany organized by electing the following
board of nine directors, who are among
our best citizens, both of town and coun-
try: i. D. CASTOR, J. F. Whisonant, c.
w. Whisonant, J. G. Black, d. J.. Brown,

LETTER FROM HICKORY GROVE.

The Money For the Cotton Mill Almost
subscribed-The Correspondent Knows
His Duty-Other Notes.
Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer.
HICKORY GROVE, May 2l.-We would
sleep, but not forever; and I suppose il
could truthfully be said, we would not
work if it were not necessary to do so to
keep up with the pace of progress. Such
being the case, some of our most progress
sive citizens have about completed the
organization Of the cotton mill and have
secured subscriptions amounting to some
$35, 900. Considering that $4,000 is all
that is contemplated, feel safe in assert
ing the mill is an assured fact.
Speaking of sleep reminds me Of a re-
mark from one Of our patriotic young
men, to the effect that if Grover Cleve-
land would awake or get off of bis duck
hunt drunk, he would find that some
action on his part in favor Of those poor
and oppressed Cubans would meet with
the approval of "the people," Verify, il
is time for some action to be taken and
the gas, that has been costing this grand
country so many thousands, to stop and
stop short. How can the people of this
grand republic stand idly by and see such
a tyrant and assassin as Weyler has prov
en- to be, butcher men, women and chill.
dren without provocation Will the
sons of these States never awake, and ap-
preciate that those true, brave and patri-
otic Cubans, are fighting for the same
liberty for which our forefathers died
upon the field of battle?
Upon several occasions, your cores
pondent has been requested to criticise
the acts Of private citizens. To these
parties have this to say: am here to
represent my country, to give you the

allotted to rye humble scribe" to satisfy
the personal animosity Of any man against
the other. "There are moments when one
wants to be alone," and with me, when /
meet such a man, this is one Of them.
Work has commenced on the ridge road
preparatory to putting it in good condition
tor the hauling Of the Lockhart traffic.
When the work on the road is finished,
we predict that it will be one of the best
in the county, for it is under the supervis-
ion of Mr.. Wilkerson, which is guaran-
tee in itself.
The apple crop in this section Is pre-
dicted as the best for years; but peaches

knights Of Pythias-Baseball-T Kings
Daughters Ohiciate at the Banquet.
Correspondence OF the Yorkville Enquirer.
Rock HILL, May 2O.-The great events
during the last few days have been the
baseball game and the arrival of the
knights of Pythias. These last have
come in thick and fast. It is working
body, too. They come to order in the
morning and get right to work. Then
they stick to work until time comes for
meals. Among other things they have
elected officers for the coming year.
They are: Grand Chancellor, w. H.
Thomas; Grand Vice Chancellor, D. G.
Haywood; Grand Prelate, VIM. Gold
smith; Grand Keeper of Records and
Seal, D. j. Aud Grand Master OF Ex-
checquer, G. 81. Bergman. The appoint
i've officers will be named later.
Last night banquet was served at
the Presbyterian High School. The room
was full and all were filled. Turkey,
ham, tongue, salad, olives, coffee, tea
hot and cold-with ice cream and straw
berries in profusion. After the feast came
the toasts. These were:
Our guests-Response by Rev. H. B.
Brown.
The Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias OF
South Carolina-Response by Grand
Chancellor II. F. Weston.
Our Sister Orders-Response by Broth
er Claud Sawyer.
Winthrop Normal and Industrial Col
lege Of South Csrolina-Response by
President Johnson. Reply by Brother
w. H. Thomas.
Our Women Response by Rev. j. b..
Thornwell.
The Pythian Goat.-Response by Broth
or C. C. Featherstope.
The Bacbelor.-Response by w. j..
Cherry.
The toasts occupied the time until mid
night. This morning the logde is again at
steady work.
The baseball game was picnic for Rock
Hill. The boys were little skittish at
the grand talk of some of the visitors, but
soon after the game began it was evident
that Columbia was not in it. The score
finally stood: Rock Hill, 10; Columbia,
8. The batteries were, for Columbia,
Weston and Jones; for Rock Hill, Sprin-
kle and Hoffman. Base hits, Columbia,
S; Rock Hill, 10. Home runs, Hoffman,
l. The game was played on the grounds
of the Athletic association. With little
rain this ground would be in magnificent
condition for riding and for baseball.
We had our first shower today about 2
o'clock-enough to ''lay the dust" but
the clouds give promise for little more.
Last night Polk Miller lectured in Rod
dey's hall. Unfortunately for some one,
the hour set for his lecture was that last
decided upon for the Pythian banquet.
This took away from the number ofpro-
bable attendants great number who, for
one reason or another, attended the ban
quet.
The society of Kings Daughters de-
serves great praise for the manner in which
they arranged for the Pythian banquet
last night. The details were all left to
them and they responded handsomely.
For walters they had about5O of the young
ladies of Rock Hill. These were dressed
in white and wore red caps. They were
courteous and capable. We commend
this example of the Kings Daughters to
others. g.. s.

ER-On last Wednesday I went down to
Augusta to be examined by DIR. Doughty
as to the propriety of an operation. This
was the course advised by DIR. Neil.
Mr.. Doughty made very thorough ex-
animation and the conclusion was not to
operate at present. The diagnosis Of DR..
Doughty, understood, was in the main
very unfavorable to my recovery. All
the symptoms except one, and that an
important one, indicated that I am affiict-
ed with an incurable malady-one beyond
the reach Of either medicine or knife.
When he subjected the blood to the
microscope he found that the blood did
not harmonic with the other symptoms
and he was, think, al sea.

advantage to me. The enlargement OF
the bowels has been somewhat relieved
and the swelling in my feet and legs is
gradually passing away. l am painfully
weak, but my appetite Is still good and l

am somewhat encouraged.

knows what will contribute most to his
own glory and my good. 1t pains me to

he will pardon me.

have done admirably we'll. Everybody
