Mr.. Mckinley believes that when
the Spanish minister of foreign affairs
fully appreciates the Interpretation
which has been put upon Senor de
Lome's letter in some quarters of the
United States, be will have to disavow
it. Minister Woodford has been told
in a positive way what the president
would like to have done but he had
not been told anything which would
Justify him in making demand for q
disavowal.
In other words, it is assumed that
be will use delicate diplomacy to se-
cure the end desired, and the presi.
dent is sincere in the belief that anoth-
er interview between Minister Wood
ford and the minister of foreign affairs
in Madrid will end the whole trouble.
As far as the feature of the DeLome
letter criticizing the president is con-
cerned the incident is closed. That
was established when the state de-
partment received Senior Du Bose as
charge d affaires of the Spanish lega-
ton to succeed Senor DeLome.
The other phase of the letter the
president considers should very prop.
erly be made the subject of further
negotiations IN order that Spain should
have an opportunity to show that
Senior DeLome falsely represented
her position when he made the state.

ETA JANE. February 1.-THE enter
prise shown by THE ENQUIRER in pre-

speaks well for the up-todate manage

THE DE LONE INCIDENT.

Still Open; But In Fair Prospect of Set
tlement.
Washington Dispatch Of Monday.
The DeLome incident is still unset
tied. The cipher dispatch received
from Minister Woodford was not en-
tirely satisfactory. 1t was taken to
the president by Assistant Secretary
Day, and after short conference be-
tween them Mr.. Day sent another ca
blevram to Minister Woodtord.
Officially nothing will be said about
these two communications further
than that the incident is not closed.
It is said that Minister Woodford's
cable was report of his interview
with the Spanish minister of foreign
affairs, which showed that no disclaim
er had been made by Spain of that
feature of the DeLome letter which
has been interpreted to indicate the
insiucerity of the Spanish government
in the matter of autonomy and in the
negotiations for commercial treaty.
Absence of such disclaimer is moi
entirely satisfactory to the president
Accordingly Minister Woodford has
been given further instructions on the
subject. Without making any express
demand for a disavowal, Minister
Woodford is required by his new 10
structions to impose upon the Madrid
authorities the importance to all par
ties concerned of some distinct repu
diation of Senior de Lome's declara
tons, which the president cannot
believe correctly represent the position
of the Spanish government.

Weather and Crops-Death OF Miss Nina
Duff-Mr. Therril Called to the Presby-
terian Church-Other Notes.
Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer.
BLAcKsBURG, Feb. l5.-The weather
has been real springlike for the past
week, and our farmers are taking advan-
tage of it to turn the soil either for spring
sowing of oats or in preparation for their
corn and cotton crops. The sentiment
among them now is for full corn crop
and very scanty use Of commercial fer
tilizers. think good deal of land will
be planted in cotton but not 80 much as
there was last year, and more homemade
fertilizers will be used than usual.
Work on our new council chamber
and town hall is progressing very favor
ably, and the first story will soon be fin
ished, ready for the Masonic order to
take charge and build the second story.
A telegram to Mr.. James w. Duff yes
terday morning from Mooresboro, n. c.,
announced the critical illness of his sis
ter, Miss Nina. He went at once to her
bedside, and in the afternoon the other
brothers-Messrs. Dudley and Ed-went
I'D to be with her and the grief-stricken
family. Another telegram came this
morning, saying that Miss Nina was re.
lieved of her suffering, and had entered
into rest about o'clock. She will be
buried at Mooresboro tomorrow.
The Presbyterian congregation at this
place has engaged the services, until Oc-
tober next, of Mr.. Therril. of Heath
Springs, Kershaw county. Mr.. Therrll is
a theological student from Davidson COL
lege, and for his zeal, earnestness and
ability, has made fine impression upon
the members of the church.
There was dance at Gaffney's last

AN OPPORTUNITY

OUR POPULAR CORSETS.
Ladies' Complexion Soap at
OnlV Is Cents per Cake.

For some reason we have neg
lected to call your attention to
our magnificent line of Gentle
mems Underwear-simply forgot
it we guess in the rush of busi-
ness-but if you are still needing
something of the sort we are in
a position to offer you an oppor-
tunity of getting it that does not
always crowd itself on everyone,
and the line we have is of the
satisfaction variety, and is most
likely the best that has been on
this market for some time. We
have the shirts and drawers in
suits and the prices are very low.
Our line of Laundried Shirts and
Collars is exceptionally nice as
we'll as our Cravats and the price
is the lowest.
Our Corsets for ladies, are up
to-date, and are growing in pop
ularity from the "Atlantic to the
Paci-," o pshaw ! we meant
from the Broad to the Catawba;
and every lady who buys one,
always returns to STRAUSS
for another. Our Corsets, in fit,
comfort, grace and symmetry OF
shape have a value that is found
in no other, and the ladies all
lavish the most extravagant en-
comium of praise upon them.
Ladies, have you ever thought
why so many of you have poor
complexions )? Probably as much
as any one thing it is from the
use of impure soap-not necessa-
rily cheap soap; but IMPURE
SOAP made from animal fat.
The powerful chemicals used in
its manufacture destroys the ami
nation of the skin and produces
pimples and consequently bad
blood. The SPANISH ROOT
SOAP is a purely vegetable pro-
duction and is in nowise injurious
to the skin, does not retard the
action of the pores, and is one
of the greatest benefits to its
healthy action known, thus pro-
ducing lovely complexion and
at the same time giving us the
purest, cheapest and best toilet
soap ever produced through the
scientific discovery of man, and
at only IS cents a cake.

Another Big Cotton Crop-Lots of Guano
Beirg Sold-The Cordwood Business.
Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer.
SMYRNA, February 14.-Notwithstand-
ing the low price of cotton, our farmers
have gone to work to make another big
crop.
So far, about as much guano has been
contracted for as was used last year. Not
withstanding claims to the contrary, there
must he big profit in fertilizers this year.
I judge by the anxiety Of the agents to
sell. The country is swarming with
agents.
More wheat has been sown around here
than usual, and it is beginning to show
up nicely.
\ tremendous amount of cordwOod has
been shipped from here this season.
There has not been much money in the
business for the contractors; but it has
given employment to large number OF
people who would have otherwise been
idle, ard we feel that, after all, a railroad
is great institution.
Some gardening, such as the planting
of Irish potatoes, peas and unions, is be-
ing done in this section.
The condition of Mr.. William Biggers
is improving somewhat. His son is near
ly able TO be about again.

Court is now in session at Gaffney,
Judge Klugh presiding. Not very
heavy docket on hand at the opening OF
court. The petit jurors were dismissed
yesterday until Monday morning next.
Miss Mamie Crosby closed her school
week before last as the free school term
! was out then.
Mr.. James Garner, highly respected
citizen Of the Mount Tabor section, died
on Tuesday CT last week after short but
severe illness.
Farmers are sowing oats now. More
oats than usual have been sown this year,
and farmers have been particular in Civ
ing them their best land after providing
for their wheat crop.
Very little demand has, as yet, been
made for guano, and the probabilities are
that not so much commercial fertilizers,
as usual, will be used this year, and farm
ers must get it cheaper than heretofore or
else at the cotton option, or it will be no
sale, sure, with most of them.
The last few days are like "Indian Sum-
mer," and yesterday morning the turtle
doves were cooling like springtime.
Our farmers will reduce their cotton
acreage this year sufficient to materially
increase the food crop.
For sometime the smallpox scare has
been quiet.
Adam Frasier, colored, charged with

STUDY--.WoRK.

1893 has knocked and the door
of the future has been opened
unto it, and as to what it shall be
is a matter entirely with us-just
what we make it. Plan with
your brain and work with your
hands. Work intelligently and
work persistently and all will be
we'll. We have settled down to
hard work and are now ready for
business. We have a complete

expect to make contracts for our
annual supply of fertilizers. In
the meantime we solicit the pat
ronage of all trustworthy and re-

the fact that there are others
catering to the same kind of
trade as ourselves, and desiring
to be charitable toward them, we
refrain from quoting prices at
this time; but will leave that to
you for investigation.
Everybody recognizes us as
