Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer.
CLOVER, May 1-While there are no
new developments relative to the var
ious enterprises in which this commu-
nifty Is interested since my last letter,
there is no reason to anticipate any let
up in the towns development. The
actual work of making the brick In
tended for the Smith block has been
commenced, and Mr.. Thompson jack
son. the contractor, hopes to have the
first kiln ready by the middle Of this
month, provided, Of course, the wealth
er is favorable. 1t is the intention Of
Contractor Beamguard to commence
the work Of construction just as soon
as he can get the necessary material
on the ground.
DR.. w. M. Stenmeyer, of this place,
was married on April %, to Miss Alma
Gannt, Of Beaufort county, and he and
his charming bride arrived here on
last Monday. Mrs. Stenmeyer Is a
niece Of Mrs. S. H. Hay, and the young
couple will be her guests at the manse
until the handsome residence that Is
Smith on the south side Of Kings
Mountain street Is completed, which
will be only short time, as the paint
ers are now engaged in putting on the
finishing touches.
Several weeks ago the statement
was made in this correspondence that
there was q most excellent opening
here for a bank. During the present
week the town was visited by gentle
man from a neighboring town on a
prospecting tour, and while your cor
respondent has no definite information
to give out on the prospect Of the early
establishment Of a bank, he will say
that there Is positively no doubt OF the
fact that the time when we will have
such an institution in our midst Is not
as far off as it has been.
Some of the farmers in this section
are of the opinion that while the out
look for fair wheat crop Is not so
favorable as 1t was several weeks ago,
the yield in many instances will be
much better than the pessismists are
predicting.
The railroad agent, Mr.. J. Meek
Smith. is now installed in the new Of
flee located in the depot erected by
the railroad people in December Of
last year, and Is In position to look
patrons with less inconvenience to
himself and them than heretofore.
Mr.. w. E. Morton, accompanied by
his son, Master Fred, arrived here on
Wednesday morning and remained un-
til last night. Mr.. Morton came to
look after some business matters In
connection with the new mill company
Of which he Is president and general
| manager. 1t Is Mr.. Morton's expecta-
] ton to get the cotton mill at Millen,
Ca, to running smoothly by the middle
Of this month, and as soon as matters
are In satisfactory shape there he and
his family will return to Glover. The
house that Is being built for their
Temporary occupancy will be complet-
ed in week or ten days.
The farmers in this section have
been pushing their planting operations
early and late during the past two
weeks, and as a result some Of them
have finished their word, and we have
heard Of several who have already
fairly good stands Of cotton. The rain
last Saturday and Sunday was exactly
what was needed as to time and guam
tity, as the ground had commenced to
become dry and hard.
Numerous drummers visit Glover
AS everybody knows, who knows much
of anything, there Is as large II not
larger per centage of jovial, whole
souled intelligent men in this calling
as in any other. Lots Of them are
good story tellers and are not 10th to
| exercise their talents along this line
when conditions are favorable. There
was one here a few days ago and after
seeing the trade" spent short time
with friends story telling. The sub
ject of selling gold bricks" and suck
er catching" generally was broach-
ed, and the drummer related several
