One of our great American po-
cts, who writes throbbingly on the
problems of life, putting a large,
broad-shouldered problem in every
line, and a loud, Wheeling yearn at
the end of each stanza, made the
statement the other day that we in
this country are getting so that we
have fads in literature and books,
just the same as we have in boots,
bonnets or smoking tobacco. AS a
general rule, / do not like TO pin my
faith to what a poet says. Poetry
is a pretty thing to read, but you
cannot always depend upon it as a
source of information. The aver
age poet has such a boisterous and
maroon-colored imagination that
YOU must make more or less allow
ance for what he says. But when
this poet says that we have acquired
fads in literature and in books, |
agree with him.
Each year literature undergoes
more or less of a change. Last

ISLANDERS seized Leech and dis
patched a messenger to York
vile for an officer, who was soon
on the ground with a warrant,
and in less than two hours after
the shooting, Leech was in Jail.
While the messenger was gone
after the officer a number of the
negroes concluded that they
would rescue Leech from his cap.
tors and allow him to escape.
As a result there was a second
riot and four of the participants
were arrested and lodged in Jail,
several of them after being re-
lieved of loaded pistols. 1t is
said that several others Will be
arrested.
As reported by your Rock
Hull correspondent, Policeman
Johnson, of Fort Mill, several
weeks ago put his bloodhou nds
on the track of young man
named Norman, whom he was
trying to arrest for some trivial
offence, and trailed him to Ca
tawba River, where the trail was
lost in the stream. Norman's
dead body was found a few davs
later. Johnson was brought to
4orkville today and lodged in
Jail, where he is likely to remain
until the next term of court.
when he will be tried on the
charge of being responsible for
Norman's death.
There was only one prisoner in
the county Jail this morning.
There are eight tonight, the
eighth, a negro, being incarcer-
ated this afternoon on the charge
OF disturbing religious worship at
negro church near town a few
nights ago.

Yorkville, August 2S.-The
negro farmers living in the vi
cinity Of this place nave for sew
eral years past held a picnic at
some convenient point after crops
were laid by. Today was the
appointed time for the gala oc-
casion for this year, and the
place was a grove about two
miles west of town.
All went smoothly until about
3 o'clock this afternoon, when a
number OF negroes tanked up on
"iuSs X" started row, which
soon developed into riot. Alex
ander Lee, who is represented as
being good, reliable dafky,
undertook to restore peace, and
caught hold Of Ep Leech, one Of
the principal belligerents. Leech
freed himself and Immediately
shot Lee, the bullet penetrating
the bowels and death resulted in
about twenty minutes. Imme-

During Mr.. Hough's address
he referred to Mr.. Phil. Snipes,
an old and decrepit Confederate
soldier, living not far from Dud-
ley, who led the charge against
the Federal breastwork at Ream's
station, the most heroic and dar-
ing act he ever saw, declared Mr..
Hough. "The old man is now in

to say that contributions were
liberal.
Mr.. Thos. Funderburk also
stated that their was another old
soldier in the neighborhood who
was in needy circumstances,
"Uncle Johnny Funderburk" as
he is known throughout that
section, and he wanted him re-
membered on this happy occasion.
A contribution was taken for
both the old soldiers and people
gave glaely and freely to both.
The afternoon was spent in
listening to selections from the
old choir, which never tired of
singing their former songs, and to
short talks by number present
who were asked to stand up and
say something"
Mrs. W. IF. Laney, an accom-
plished musician, presided at the
organ.
Apparently the happiest and
about the youngest couple at the
reunion was Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas
Funderburk, If cheerluiness and
sprightliness count for anything
in measuring years. Mr.. Fun
derburk lives but a short distance
from the church and on last
Friday they had their entire
family to dine with them. Four
sons, ten daughters, six sons-in
law, one daughter-in-law and ten
grandchildren all sat down
around the family table. 1t was
indeed happy family.

REUNION OF DUDLEY CHOIR.

dress-NOtes.

HiSh'een years ago CnOlr was
organized at Dudley Baptist
church, Is miles south of here,
in Chesterfield county, S. @.
For number of years the choir
met almost every week for prac-
hce. 1t was composed of good
talent and made good music.
But the boys and girls composing
the choir grew up. Home ties
were broken and the choir scat
tered. Others came in to take
the place of those who left and a
good choir has been in existence
all these years. A few weeks
ago it was decided to have a
reunion of the otd choir and Fri
day, August 21st, was the day
for the reunion. Not only all
the members of the old choir
were present, but great many
of their friends assembled to
- make merry with them. The
large church was full to overflow.

The flight of eighteen years
has wrought many changes in the
old choir, but time has dealt
gently, for nearly all who Joined
that choir eighteen years ago are
living. Some of the boys then
are grizzIed men now and short
skirted girls then are called
"mamma' now, but that choir
can make music, az was shown
last Friday when great many
of the selections the choir first
learned were rendered and rem
dered well.
Mr.. Thomas Funderburk one of
the leaders in Dudley church and
Sunday school had matters in
charge at the reunion and it is
needless to say that he managed
them well. He is the kind of a
man who makes great success
of everything he attempts.
MIR. Funderburk announced at
the beginning Of the exercises
that no program had been arrang-
ed, that it was a day for every
one 10 have good time in any
orderly way and that if music
was wanted it would be furnished d

would make an address.
After some good music by the
old choir, led by Mr.. Henry
Funderburk, who has been the
faithful leader of the choir all
these years, Hon. J. NJ. Hough
was called on and made a talk to
his old friends and neighbors,
which was greatly appreciated.
