Chicago the situation is worse than east, as

WORK On BAD PLACES.
A Citizen OF Bethel Offers somo Suggestions
as to the Best Use Of tho Convicts.

A Citizen Of Bethel Offers somo Suggestions
as to the Best Use Of tho Convicts.
Editor Of The Yorkville Enquirer:
desire to make few suggestions about
road working. have heard great many
people in this section speaking of the con-
victs, and after giving the matter careful
consideration, it strikes me that it will be
a good idea if they should be put on the
roads to work only the bad places.
would like to see ull the roads. macada-
mized but, in my opinion, for obvious
reasons, this is impracticable, and the next
best thing is to do the most good for the
most people. Suppose the county board
should adopt the policy of fixing up the
bad places in the different roads first, I
think the people interested will give all
the assistance in their power by hauling
rock, gravel, etc., and in other ways. 1t
strikes me also that the road oyerseers
would be willing to call out their hands.
Maybe some people will claim that this is
patchwork piece Of business; but if they
will remember that when all the bad
places are fixed, think they will agree
with me, that we will then have good
roads. K.

FORT MILL MATTERS.

Returning Spring-Personal Menhon-Fort
MIL Manufacturing Company, Running
Its Plant Double Time.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
FORT MILL, April l5.-Sunday was in
deed a typical spring day, and many took
advantage of it by donning themselves in
spring costumes.
Work on Mr.. J. s. Deaton's residence
IN Sprattsville is being rapidly pushed. 1t
promises to be neat cottage when COM
pleted.
Miss jamie A. Moore, who has been
visiting friends and relatives in North
!! Carolina for sope time, returned to this
place on Monday 70 spend the summer.
Mrs. David Trainer, who has been visit
ing in Pennsylvania for several months,
has also returned to the Fort for the
summer.
Mr.. S. N. Merritt has moved into his
new house on Whites avenue. He has
not spared either time or expense to add
anything to it that would add to the
= convenience thereof.
The old store room belonging to P. K.
Null was pulled down last week, and the
property owners, who were nearby, feel
safer, as it was commonly called fire
trap"
For some time past it has been impossi-
BILE for the Fort Mill Manufacturing COM
pany to keep in warps, and in consequence
of the fact, the beaming department is
now running double time.
Mr.. S. A. Hotchkiss will, at an early
date, erect handsome dwelling on his

continue, and who will be next to do
likewise? OBSERVER.

ARE YOU
A THINKING
MAN :?

OR do you let somebody else do your
" studying. If you are q thinker we
want you to consider few points which
we will submit. Here they are: Can
you afford to 60 on from day to day,
week to week and year to year without
throwing around your wife, children or
those dependent upon you, that iron clad
protection which is absolutely guaran-
teed to them by policy in first-class
life insurance company? II you decide
that you cannot ignore life insurance, are
you using the same business sense that
characterizes your daily business transac-
company that charges you twice as much
for your protection as it Is worth, or as
another company equally as reliable will
furnish it for? The MUTUAL RESERVE
FUND LIFE ASSOCIATION, Of New York,
has been in business about Is years and
during that time has paid more than
$22, 900 900 to the beneficiaries of de-
ceased policy holders. It has in force
today as much insurance as the THREE
STONGEST old line companies had when
they had reached the same age, and some
thing like $5O, 900, 900 to spare.
It has more assets, as compared
to liabilities than any company in
the world.
It has paid every honest death claim
that has been presented, in full, and hss
never taken advantage of technicality,
as other companies often do. Now for 9
practical illustration: Say you are 43
years of age. 4 5000 life policy Gpay as
Company, Of New York, will cost you
SlsO.5O annually or $3.50 in twenty years,
if you live that long. in cold cash, not
counting interest. The same size policy
in the MUTUAL RESERVE, will cost
you sS6.lO annually, or s1,722 in twenty
wears. We will be pleased to explain our
system to YOU and also to convince you
that any derogatory statement made by
any agent of any old line company doing
business in this section about the Mutual
Reserve, is absolutely false and is inspired
by his desire to sell you something You
will never derive any benefit from. It
will certainly do you no harm to learn all
YOU can about our company and its plan
before placing your insurance.

He was arrested and upon a trial was
convicted of murder. Judge Earle,
however, granted him a new trial, and
the man is now going through the or
deal again. The evidence is all in and
1t seems to be overwhelmingly against
the defendant, making the murder ap-
pear one of the most brutal crimes that
has been committed in the State
for years.. After all the testimony was
in on Wednesday the judge ordered
that the jury make personal inspec-
tion of the grounds on which the
gragedy occurred. The Case was to
have been argued on Thursday and it
was believed that the jury would only
be very short time in arriving at d
verdict. Public opinion is overwhelm-
ingly against the accused, and it is
more than likely that he will hang.
A Windfan For Clemson.
Columbia Register: Clemson college
will get q splendid revenue this year
from the privilege tax. The State
treasurer has already received from
that source this year between $4S 900
and $4,000. This shows that the
farmers of this State will use twice as
much commercial fertilizer as they did
last year, when the receipts from this
source were only about $29, 900. One
year during DIR. Bates's incumbency
Of the State treasurer's office, the
privilege tax amounted to over $780,
900. The amount of Clemson colleges
revenue from this source is therefore
very uncertain and variable. At the
last session of the general assembly an
attempt was made to specify certain
sum which Clemson college should re-
ceive from the privilege tax, the bal
ance to be covered into the State treas
ury to be used in meeting the ordinary
expenses of the State government.
There was much merit in the bill, but
it was unceremoniously defeated on the
plea that the farmers paid this tax
and the farmers college ought to get
all the benefit of it.
Red Bank Court House.
The county seat of Saluda county
will be Red Bank. The matter was
settled at a primary election few days
ago. The principal competitor was
Emory. The election resulted in 825
votes for Emory and 913 for Red Bank.
Red Bank is about fourteen miles from
Johnston, which is the nearest railroad
station.

Rock HILL, April 15th.-Yesterday
morning, just at o'clock, Miss Anna
Ross Pride and DR.. w. R. Simpson were
married at the Church of Our Saviour,
Rev. ]. w. Cantey johnson officiating.
The morning was a beautiful one, and
kind friends had done their best to make
the church pretty enough for the bride.
Promptly at the time set, the wedding
March, began, and the bride entered
with her father, Colonel c. j. Pride. She
was dressed entirely in white and carried
in her hand q bunch Of ilacs. The How
ers, which were so much wished for at
Easter and which though due were not on
hand, were ON hand in abundance. The
service was not long, and Immediately
thereafter the bridal pair began trip to
the North. Both the parties are 30 well
known that it would be useless to speak
of them as individuals other than to affirm
that they are deservedly popular with all.
DR.. A. D. Mayo, a well known lecturer
on educational questions, will lecture on
Friday night in the auditorium OF VIM
throp college on the subject "How Does
Universal Education Pay?" The public
Is invited. DR.. Mayo is well known in
this State, having visited US frequently
some years ago; but OF late his work mas
been mostly in other sections.
After the regular morning service at the
Presbyterian church last Sunday, another
service was held. This was practically an
accounting by the officials Of their trusts.
The membership is now 444, although
over rs had been dismissed to organize
new church. Mr.. B. n. Craig, treasurer,
reported that during the year Sso.9 had
been collected. Captain A. E.. Smith and
Mr.. j. H.. Milling superintendent OF the
Sabbath schools, reported them in Hour
ishing condition. Reports were also
made for the Westminster league, the
Ladies' Aid, and the Ladies' Missionary
societies, and by Mr.. Miller, who has
charge of the building fund. The pastor
made report showing that during the
year he had preached ITO sermons, and
made over l 300 pastoral calls.
The grounds of Winthrop college are to
be inclosed by fence. The last legisla-
ture made provision for this work, and
the contract has been awarded to the Rock
Hill Hardware company. The front OF
the grounds will have handsome fence
of iron pickets. This, though, will not
extend all round.
The colored girl preacher has gone.
She stirred thoroughly her people and
received a very liberal contribution.
Many whites heard her, but could not
detect the wonderful power that 80 many
seem to have found. a.s.
