IT looks now as if the Queens cup 4

IT looks now as if the Queens cup Is
to continue on this side of the Allan
tic, and we feel that we will be par
doned If we say that we are rather
inclined to regret the fact. Sir Thom-
as Upton has been game throughout
and a true-blue sportsman. His un-
ruffied and evidently sincere courtesy
compels admiration, and really merits
so great a tribute as loss of the cup.
But it seems that American skill in
yacht building and American seaman
ship are too much for the Britishers'
and the cup will remain with US. AS
to whether Sir Thomas will deem 1t
worth while to make another effort
remains to he seen; but If it Is the cup
he is after, it would be just as we'll for
him to save his time, money and dis
appointment.

That is 1t, then is it? Well, I had
not heard Of 1t before. According to
my calculations We have enough cot
ton, both Egyptian and American, to
run us at full capacity until the new
crops come in, and we have orders
ahead that will keep US busy until
the middle of February. do not
mean we have orders sufficient to keep
the whole plant busy until that time;
but there is certainly no sign Of shut
down now."
Mr.. Lewis went on to say that ne
had a big order in his pocket from
the morning mail, and that indications
generally were as bright as he had
ever known them. The only thing
that occurred about the mill to give
rise to such a rumor as was being cir
culated was the fact that some Of the
machinery had to be stopped a few
days ago until it could be changed to
a different kind Of product; but that
is matter Of constant occurrence, and
no wise indicative of slack business.

WHEN a motorman ran his car into
the presidents carriage recently, 1t Is
reported that the president cursed the
said motorman wickedly, and many
people commended the president for
the profanity he used under the cir
cumstances. Not long ago while the
president and his family were being
driven to church at a rapid rate, they
came very near running over a man
who was leading broken bicycle
along the road. The man cursed the
president about as wickedly as the
president had cursed the motorman,
and was arrested by the police for his
wordy assault. 1t is generally accept
ed as a fact that 1t is poor rule
that does not work both ways.

Metz, ought to maintain order In the

ed the idea of treating with the Ger

to induce Bazaine to capitulation with

render of Metz followed. Regnier's

Regnier during his absence, was tried
and condemned by courtmartial held

Committed For Burglary.
John Anderson, colored, was COM
mitted to Jail last Saturday by Magis-
trate Smith Of Broad River township
on the charge Of burglary. Two Hick-
ory Grove stores were broken into last
week. They were the stores Of the
Hickory Drug Co., and Of Messrs. J.
D. Whitesides & Bro. The entrance
was effected by pricing iron grating
apart. The Drug company missed
about $7-s5 in gold and the balance
In coppers and nickels. When Negro
presented S. gold piece at Sharon on
Friday afternoon in payment for a
small purchase suspicion was aroused
and there was inquiry of Hickory
Grove. The inquiry resulted In the ar
rest Of Anderson, a Negro who had
been living in the vicinity of Hickory
Grove for some time past. Anderson
told a story that also implicated an
other Negro named Sam Feemster, but
Feemster had already gotten out Of the
country and gone to Tennessee.
Wanted to See a Smashup.
A man by the name of M. M. Tur-
ner was committed to Jail last Sunday
from Fort Mill, having been brought
over by Constable Hall. He Is white
man and is supposed to be insane. He
had been about Fort Mill for some
days, and on account of his queer con-
duct, people were disposed to be some
what shy of him. On Thursday the
switch Of the Southern railroad at the
River bridge was discovered to have
been turned for q smashup, and as the
result Of an investigation Turner was
found in a box car near by. 1t was
evident that he had turned the switch
and taken up a convenient location to
witness the anticipated smashup. The
railroad company had the man sub
jected to expert examination and sent
to Yorkville on the charge Of lunacy.
Judge McCorkle, however, will not act
in the case for want Of jurisdiction.
He does not belong in this county,"
said the judge on yesterday. land I
have nothing to do with him." Turner
Is still in jail pending decision as
to what shall be done with him.

Cheese Making.

Cheese Making.
Mr.. w. B. Moore has returned from
il short trip to Easley where he went
to investigate cheese making, with a
view to establishing a plant at York
vile or in this vicinity. He got con-
siderable amount of information on
the subject, and would now be glad
to talk to farmers of the surrounding
country who may be in a position to
furnish fresh milk every morning. The
plant, If established. will call for large
quantities of sweet milk, which must
be furnished every day and for which
Il good price will be laid. There are
numerous farmers over In the Easley
country who sell milk to the cheesery,
and who realize IL profit of five or SIX
dollars per month on each COW kept
for the purpose. Some of the farmers
haul milk distance Of five or six
miles.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

Messrs. w. II. MecorkIe, Jr., J. r.
williams and R. s. Hanna, committee
appointed by the grand jury for the
purpose, went to Bethesda township
today to look into the workings Of the
chaingang.
It was reported in Yorkville yester-
day that a Gaffney corporation has
purchased the Piedmont Springs prop
erty with the purpose Of developing
it. It Is generally conceded that there
Is virtue in the waters Of these springs
there are sepeval Of them-and prop
erly managed the property would be-
come valuable.
The two wings of the Catawba dam
have approached near enough togeth-
er to force the entire river through a
gap that Is only about thirty feet wide.
The water goes through with tremen-
dous rapidity; but there are men about
the work who are willing to wager
that a Negro in the employ Of the
company, called Bigun, can swim up
the river even at this place. visitors
are told that Bigun has performed the
feat: but there are few people who
would believe the story on the mere
statement Of any individual, however
reliable-not after they have seen the
rapids.
The outlook for a good business
campaign during the approaching fall
and winter has not been better at this
season for years. There Is promise OF
large cotton crops at good prices. and
every reason to believe that cash will
be easy and plentiful. OF course, ac-
cidents may happen to spoil all this;
but for the present the country has a
right to look on the bright side Of the
situation.
There was moro money spent by
candidates in the last campaign than
in any previous campaign since the
war. That is IL all reports be true
There was probably not state or SEN
atorial candidate In the race who spent
less than $1,000, and the senatorial
candidates alone. according to some
reasonably well-informed estimates
spent some $4,000 or $4,000. It is
generally believed that Mr.. Henderson
spent more money than any other SEN
atorial candidate and Mr. Hemphill
probably came next. The expenses OF
Messrs. Latimer and Evans were quite
heavy, particularly in the second pri-
mary when they had large advertising
and printing bills. Mr.. Elliott spent
considerable money also; but not Sc
much as the others, probably because
he did not have quite so much. Com
mon report has it that Mr.. Henderson
spent nearly If not quite $500 in York
county. and that Mr.. Hemphill spent
over $1,000 in the fifth congressional
district. Mr.. Talbert spent more mon
ey on the newspapers than did any
other gubernatorial candidate; but his
expenditures were confined principally
to the publication Of his speech In the
newspapers Of the state, at so mucf
per line. Much Of the money was
used for buying the Influence" Of
newspapers outright; but the heavies,
expense was fixing "heelers" at cotton
mills and around large voting precincts
where small politicians have "infiu-
ence" for sale.
