The southern part of this town and
adjoining vicinity was visited by q
terrific hail storm Wednesday night,
and considerable damage resulted
Between here and Earls the storm was
most severe. The hail literally strip
ped the trees of all fruit and foliage,
and on Thursday morning hail drifts
were seen three and four feet in depth
A tenement house belonging to the
Shelby Cotton mills was twisted around
and partially demolished. The blinds
to Mr.. C. S. Caveny's house was blown
from the hinges and hurled violently
through the fence. The tower for the
transmission of water to the Belmont
mills was blown down, involving loss
of $500. The velocity of the wind
was alarming, almost amounting to q
cyclone. Kings Mountain Oracle,
May 2: A man observely under the
influence of whisky, drove up to the
Lula mill and hitched his mule few
evenings ago. Doubtless the mule was
tied carelessly, and becoming restless,
loosed himself. Some gentlemen liv-
| ing near the Dilling mill found the
mule and buggy under the bridge over
the railroad cut at this place. This
was about 10 o'clock. In an hour the
| IL o'clock express came in. What
would have been the result had not
these gentlemen discovered the mule
and buggy, we do not know. Possibly
a serious accident was avoided. 1t
was said the gentleman driving the
buggy was from Yorkville. He came
the mountain road, of course, and
every one knows that there is plenty
of whisky along the line, except reve-
nue. men perhaps.
