Everybody should attend the
Scrap Of Paper" entertainment In the
opera house next Thursday night. The
play is one Of the best and IT is to be
presented in a most creditable man
ner.
THE Standard Oil company an
nounced a cut Of cent a gallon In the
price of kerosene last Saturday. A
Red C man came here a week or ten
days ago and sold Yorkville folks
car or more in barrels. He sold at
about the same price as the Standard
was selling perhaps little under. II
is said, that the Red C people are ar
ranging to install a tank here. -.
During a visit to Columbia a few
days ago, Mr.. ]. C. Wilborn took oc-
casion to make a call on the railroad
commissioners. All three members OF
the board were in the office at the
time, and among other things the sub
ject of the Southern's freight house at
Yorkville was discussed. 1t seems that
the commission has served notice on
the railroads as to conditions here,
and gotten acknowledgment of the re-
&C ipt of the notice, with the promise
that the matter will receive considera-
ton without unnecessary delay.

-Yorkville Is to have another hotel
building and 1t Is to be something es-
pecially suited to the purpose. That
fact developed yesterday when Mr.. G.
H. O'Leary purchased the Cartwright
property adjoining his new building.
The second floor Of the O'Leary build
ing was planned without definite pur-
pose as to what should be done with
II, except that the rooms were !ar-
ranged in a manner admirably suited
for hotel purposes. Hotel people nave
been examining the rooms recently,
and they raised the objection as to the
necessity of having to do their cooking
in the building and also to the lack of
suitable sample rooms. Mr.. OLeary
first began to figure on the idea Of
erecting a kitchen and sample room In
the rear and then he decided on an
overture to DR.. Cartwright. The deal
was affected without a great deal of
palaver, and now the hotel Is an as
sured thing. There will be an office
and sample rooms in the down stairs
Of the Cartwright building and kitch-
en- in the rear In the two buildings
there will be about twenty-five guest
rooms and altogether most desirahie
hotel can be gotten out Of the arrange
ment. DR.. Cartwright has not yet de-
cided on what he proposes to do. He
has not had time to fully consider the
matter; but it is a settled fact that he
will remain in Yorkville, and 1t goes
without saying that he will soon build.
