"NONE; NO, NOT ONE"

T AM not one of those individuals who
Il thinks that l can accomplish a great
deal within myself, especially in writing
FIRE INSURANCE., and it is with the
keenest appreciation that dotf my "sky
piece" and in profound gratitude make
acknowledgment to my friends for their
material assistance in building up my
FIRE INSURANCE AGENCY IN
YORKNILLE AND YORK COUNTY,
and with large and growing business,
together with long list of the stronges,
fire insurance companies in the world,

the same courteous treatment in the fu
ture that has pervaded the management
Of my insurance affairs in the past, and
under all circumstances will furnish only
trustworthy and reliable fire insurance to
trustworthy and reliable people at the
lowest minimum rates consistent with
the protection afforded. OF course there
are other agents III Yorkville who can
furnish the same quality of protection at
the same cost as myself; but there are
NONE; no, not one, who can appreciate
the business they receive more than L

Good Radiance.
Jess Wright, West Estes and Ed
Young left on the S. G. and G. train
last Wednesday in charge of a peniten-
tiary guard. They were not in real
good humor, of course; but they did
not have much to say.
The Old Standard Mill.
The Highland Park Manufacturing
company, of Rock Hill, commenced
work last Wednesday,, getting the
building and grounds of the old Stand
ard Cotton mill in shape for the re-
sumption of operations.
Cracked His Skull.
A Negro boy who attempted to jump
from Southern train at Rock Hill on
Thursday morning, fell against an iron
clear post and had his skull cracked.
After he hit the post he rolled under
the wheels of the moving train and
lost three fingers from one hand.
Though the boy was hurt quite seri-
ously, it is not thought that his injur-
les will prove fatal.
Complime entinS the Veterans.
The Rock Hill Herald's list of SUBJ
scribers to compliment Confederate
veterans with tickets to the Charleston
reunion continues to grow. In The
Herald, of Wednesday, was the an
nouncement that the list is open to
nine more veterans. The following
individuals and organizations will fur
nish tickets: ]. G. Anderson, 1 j. r.
Logan and James Cansler, l p; Wood
men of the World, 2; w. Brown Wy
lie, l; Crawford Witherspoon, L; A.
Friedheim, l; members of City Coun-
Gil, 2. Exclusive of Captain Roddey's
company--the exact number of the
members of which is unknown-and
including the nine tickets to be furnish
ed by THE ENQUIRER, and 16 others
by citizens of Yorkville, there is now
in sight free transportation for 60 York
county veterans.
Confederate Dead.
THE ENQUIRER has lists of the Con-
federate dead buried at Rock Hill,
Ebenezer, Fort Mill, Flint Hill, Beth
esda, Bullock's Creek, Blackstock and
Yorkville cemeteries. 1t has sent
special requests for lists of the Con-
federate dead buried in Bethel, Neely's
Creek, Mount Vernon, Bethany, Sharon
and Clover cemeteries. There are sew
eral other cemeteries in the county
and we have not arranged to get lists
from them. There should be a COM
plete list of all the Confederate dead
in the county. At sometime in the
future it might be a matter of consid-
cradle Importance. 1t is our purpose
to publish the lists mentioned on Memo
rial Day-May 10-if possible. We
will take pleasure in including all 9TH
er lists not mentioned with which we
may be furnished. These lists, how
ever, should reach US by May 6, or at
the latest by the afternoon of May 8.

The reader of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all it's stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, AMI giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work.
The proprietors have so much faith in
it's curative powers, that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails
to cure. Send for list Of testimonials.

Found In the Swamp.
On the night of March 30th, Private
Frank Cough, of the Second Rhode
Island regiment, who had been muster
ed out at Columbia, was on his way
home and stepped or fell from the At.
lantic Coast Line train, at Pee Dee
station, in Florence county. Nothing
was heard of him, and after four days
the Coast Line authorities had the
swamp and river near the station
searched and dragged for week, but
without avail. The mystery was un-
raveled on Sunday, when an old Negro
who was coming up the river in a
boat, two miles from the railroad
bridge, found the body of Cough in
in some tree limbs, where it had f1oated
and lodged. The body was identified,
though in a horrible state of decompo-
sition, and has been prepared for
burial and shipped to the volunteers
home in Rhode Island.
