Florida, who had many friends and ac-
ouaintances and several relatives in this
county, died at his home at Wildwood on
last Sunday night.
Died Bornin'.
The movement to secure another dispen-
sary election in Yorkville seems to have
died bornin'. The ENQUIRER has
heard nothing more about the matter
since the recent publication
The Times Revived. i:
The Fort Mill Times has been revived
under the proprietorship of Mr.. A. B.
Culp. The first issue came to hand Last
week. It gives promise Of being the best
paper that Fort Mill has yet had.
Price 81.
The ENQUIRER has made arrangements
to procure large and correct wall map
of South Carolina which 1t will givet TO
any club-maker who returns and pays for
two yearly subscribers, or will sell it at the
price Of $l.0O copy.
A Good idea This.
{. The Rock Hill Herald announces that
Rock Hill has well organized stock ex-;
change in active operation. 1t has been
doing business for some time but no pub
lie mention has been made of It before,
The especial object Of the exchange, which
is under the control Of local business
men, is to regulate the market OF local
stocks and bonds.
Getting Better.
Rev. D. s. McAllister, pastor Of Bethel,
who has been confined to his bed tor some-
time, is getting better. He was able TO
walk across his room on Tuesday, and on
Wednesday made the trip to the front
gate and back without assistance. There
is reason 10 believe that he will soon be
well again. Rev. s. b. Hay, Of Clover, is
to preach for him at Bethel next Sunday.
To Be Issued Next Wednesday.
Chairman Brice, Of the county Demo-
cracy, informs the reporter that he will
not be able to issue the official call for
the club meetings and the county conven-
ton, until next Wednesday. In the mean
time, however, those who are interested,
will be fully justified in acting on the
basis of the report Of the executive COM
mittee as it appeared in last Wednesdays
issue of The ENQUIRER. ,.i.ri
Went to spartanburg.
The Spartanburg Herald reports the

Damsons and Pears.
Mr.. James A. Flanagan, of the Flan-
naean company, Bowling Green, was in
Yorkyille on Thursday and left with
The ENQUIRER some sample cans OF
damsons and pears. He informed us that
the company had sold all the tomatoes
and pretty nearly everything else 1t had
nut ND last year except a few cans OF
pears and damsons. No. effort has been
made to push this; but so soon as their
splendid quality becomes known. they
will also go like hot cakes.
Punishment Enough.
Sheriff Crawford got a prisoner yester-
day. He is Negro boy, sent over from
Fort Mill by Trial Justice McElhaney for
housebreaking in the night time. He has
the Jail all to himself, except possibly he
was accompanied last night by the ghosts
of Columbus Crawford, Sam Phifer, Dolph
Wheeler, John Feaster, Charlie Colston
and other worthless who took their final
leave of those gloomy quarters by the
rope route. If this Negroes superstition
is up to the average of his race, it is alto
gether likely that by the time he gets
some real flesh and blood company, he
will have had punishment enough, with
out waiting for trial and service in the
penitentiary.
