If you Know
Anything
OFF TO THE WAR.

TT may be owing to the fact that war is
Il upon US, and that our certificates con-
tain no restrictions or forfeitures on &C
count ofwar or riots, that the CAROLINA
BENEVOLENT ASSOCIATION has
within the past few months made such
wonderful strides. Perhaps one of the
most important and interesting of all the
new enterprises that have made this year
memorable is the CAROLINA BENEV-
OLENT ASSOCIATION. This Associ-
alton promises lasting advantages to the
people, and insures positive benefits to
the state. Its mission is to disseminate
Life Insurance throughout the counties of
this State, and to provide means of pro-
lection at home. Thus thrift will be pro-
NOTED, the habit of saving will be fostered
and many families will have provision
made for them against that which is sure
to come, when the head of the family and
the chief bread-winner will be taken
from the household. 1t will also keep at
home and save the state hundreds and
thousands of dollars, which now go to
enrich our sister States. The distinctive
features of the CAROLINA BENEVO-
LENT ASSOCIATION are:
First-That it is purely mutual and
cooperative company, and collects from
the policyhOlders no more than is abso-
lutely necessary to carry out the protec-
tive purposes of the association.
Second-It is the only company that
confines its liability to local territorial re-
strictions.
Third-It is the only company that has
it's accounts audited monthly by an out
side board Of auditors at the end of every
month, and publishes the result for the
information of its policyholders.
Fourth-It is the only fraternal, benev-
olent and cooperative plan Of insurance
that offers its policyholders a cash sur
render value at stated ages.
Fitth-It is the only such company
that offers its policyhOlders an indemni-
ty against death, accident and old age in
one and the same policy. 1t unites cheap
ness with security and absolute safety.
1t issues but one policy and pays 81 900 in
the event of death, $500 in case OF loss of
one hand or foot or both eyes, and offers
a cash surrender value of $3.50 at the age
of is and $500 at the age of 10. This GER
tifcate is issued at the nominal sum of
$3.50 between the ages II and 56. All ben
tit assessments are graduated according
to the age of the policyholder.

NEWS OF FRIDAY.
Summary Of War Developments
Up to 5 O'Clock P. NJ.
BY Telegraph to The Yorkville Enquirer.
Pushing on to Santiago.

L
WASHINGTON, June 24.-Yesterday
marked a decided advance on the part
of General Skaters army toward San
tiago, and the progress, so far, is much
better than there was reason to hope
for.
Today the American advance guard
occupies a point on high table land
overlooking Santiago harbor and with
in seven miles of the guns of Moro,
which would be dangerous were it not
for the fact that they cannot be con-
viently turned from the sea.
All along the route from Baiquiri to
the point now occupied, there has
been one fierce skirmish after another ;
but notwithstanding this, the march of
the American regulars has been steady
and determined. The numerous Span
ish block houses along the road were
the principal points of opposition.
These the Spaniards would hold until
demoralized by the fire of the adyanc-
ing Americans, upon which they would
set fire to their works and retreat to-
ward Santiago.
At Juragua, yesterday, a bloody
battle was expected. Many of the
small forces of the enemy that had
been driven in from the blockhouses
had collected there, and there was
reason to believe that they would
make a determined stand. But the
battle did not develop. The Span
iards were in such hurry to leave
the town that they did not even take
time to set the town on fire.
The Cubans are cooperating with
the Americans most gallantly and al
ready proved themselves Invaluable.
The principal stands made by the
Spaniards in their retreat was in the
thick troprcal growth with which
most of the country is covered. Into
this the Cubans dash without sign of
fear or hesitation, and that the Span
iards stand in mortal dread of them,
is now proven beyond a doubt.
Landing Not Completed.
Because of the heavy sea, and be-
cause the forces already on shore did
not seem to especially need help, the
landing was not completed yesterday.
Hobson Still Safe.
Admiral Sampson has been inform
ed, under flag of truce, that Lieu
tenant Hobson and his men are in
Santiago, four miles from MORO Cas-
tie, and that they are well.
Looks For a Bloody Battle.
Secretary Alger, as is natural, is
watching the operations of the army
with intense interest. He expects
Santiago to fall soon but thinks the
victory will be bloody one. In his
opinion, the Spaniards will make a
desperate stand here, and it may be
that they will have to be almost ami
hilated before the town can be cap
tured.
Wants Peace.
MADRID, June PA crisis in the
cabinet is imminent. Robleo openly
advocates peace negotiations at once
and direct with the United States.
He is backed in his stand by strong
public sentiment. Not only the pop
ulace, but the officials generally, are
alarmed at the steady advance of the
Americans on Santiago.

pletely deserted. Many of the SOL
diers took up their residence in the
vacant houses, but others preferred to
camp in tents out in the fields. Du-
ring Wednesday afternoon and Thurs
day morning, large number of wo-
men and children returned from the
surrounding thickets to their homes in
the town and were treated kindly.
During Wednesday the only casual
ty on the American side was the
wounding of an insurgent in the hand
by a piece of shell from an American
war vessel. At the time he was doing
duty in the hills back of Baiquiri, and
the war vessels were throwing shells in
that direction for the benefit of the
Spaniards.
Spanish statements cabled from San
tiago to Madrid, during Thursday, and
back to this country indicate the pro-
gress of some severe fighting between
the Spaniards and Americans near
Santiago but there are no details.
During Thursday, the Americans
were perlectlnS lhelf plaIs lol opera
tions against Santiago. Exactly what
is to be done is not known; but there
is reason to believe that operations are
to he rapid, and that the first real land
battle of the war may be fought with
in a day or two, if, indeed, it has not
already taken place.

A SUIT AGAINST KINDS
Over a Pro Rata Division of the
Poll Taxes.
IS BROUGHT BY THE CITY
An Attempt to Make Him Pay Over to
the City Treasurer S1O,424.13-A
Departure From a Time
Honored Custom.

A departure by County Treasurer
Thomas r. Kinds from a time honored
custom with regard to pro rata divi-
sion between the county and city of
poll taxes collected by County Assessor
George NJ. Allen and turned over to
County Treasurer Kinds, has resulted
in City Treasurer j. II. Mccarthy be-
ginning suit against Mr.. Kinds to COM
pei him to pay to the city treasurer
$40 424.13.
1t has for years been the custom of
Assessor Allen to leave receipt books
at the offices of the various mines of
Butte, where the poll tax assessed
against each miner is held out of his
wages and turned over to Assessor AL
len, who in turn pays the money into
the county treasury. Then the finance
committee of the city council has met
with the board of county commission
ers, and. taking the poll books as a
basis for determining the amount
which should properly belong to the
city and county respectively, have
come to pro rata division of the
amount of poll tax thus collected and
the city's share as agreed upon has
hitherto been paid over to the city by
the county treasurer.
This same practice was followed by
trations, and after the moneys had all
been paid over To the county treasurer
the city council authorized the finance
committee to meet with the county
commissioners for the purpose of eff
lecting the accustomed pro rata divi-
sion of the poll taxes collected by AS
SCISSOR Allen. The finance committee
and the commissioners met in due pro-
cess of time and settled upon division
N ia aif n
424 IS as it's share of the money, and the
division was ratified by the council.
The county auditor drew a warrant on
Treasurer Kinds for the amount, but
when City Treasurer Mccarthy pre-
sented the warrant to County Treasur-
er Kinds payment was refused. Treas
urer Kinds refused to give his reasons
for refusing payment of the warrant,
and City Treasurer Mccarthy sought
the advise of the city's legal adviser,
Judge DeWolfe. AS a result of the con-
ference it was decided to begin man
damus proceedings in the district court
to compel the county treasurer to pay
the warrant.
A complaint has accordingly been
prepared by Judge DeWolfe, which sets
forth the facts in the case as here re-
cited, and the complaint was signed
yesterday by Treasurer Mccarthy. The
complaint has not been filed as yet, as
Judge DeWolfe has not completed the
preparation of his brief as yet, but the
document will be filed to-day or to-
morrow.
County Treasurer Kinds is not in the
city at the present time, but it is
learned that his opposition to paying
over to the city the money the warrant
drawn in its favor calls for, is based,
first upon an opinion that the taxes
were not legally collected, and second,
that if it is shown they We're legally
collected he is entitled to a commission
for collecting that portion belonging to
the city.
