Mr.. E. G. Sandifer and family have
arrived in Yorkville and are living In
the Nav house on East Jefferson
street. Shortly after their arrival last
Saturday it developed that two OF the
smaller children. both little boys, had
diphtheria. The children were danger
ously i'll before the nature Of the disease
became apparent. The anti-toxin
treatment was promptly resorted to,
and the improvement has since been
quite marked. Mr.. Sandifer said this
morning that he was hopeful that all
danger was passed.
Mr.. Isaac H. Norris went over to
Rock Hill Wednesday and had a talk
with Mr.. ]. Edgar Poag, the real es-
tate broker, through whose efforts ne
was induced to come to South Caro-
lima. He told Mr.. Poag frankly that
conditions in this section seem to be
really more favorable than he had
been led to expect. The situation had
not been overdrawn in the least. AS
to whether Mr.. Norris will settle In
Yorkville or vicinity permanently he
has not yet been able to decide; but
that he will remain here for several
months at least, he Is now quite GER
tain.
Mr.. Brooks Morgan, assistant gen.
eral passenger agent Of the Southern
railroad, stopped over in Yorkville for
a few hours between trains yesterday
afternoon. He was accompanied by
Colonel R. w. Hunt, who has charge
of the Charleston division. These
gentlemen had no special business
except that Mr.. Morgan desired to pay
a friendly call. He met quite a num-
ber Of leading business people during
the afternoon, and his short stay was
as enjoyable to himself as 1t was 10
the people to whom he was introduc-
ed. This was Mr.. Morgan's first visit
to Yorkville; but he was kind enough
to promise that 1t would not be his
last, as he wants to learn enough OF
conditions over this way to be Of spec
ial service whenever the opportunity
arises. AS a matter of fact between
Colonel Hunt and Mr.. Morgan, the
Southern's passenger department is
already in pretty close touch with the
people of this part Of the country, and
Yorkville people are always glad 10
meet either Of these gentlemen, whetn-
er in a business way or socially.
