BULLS AND BEARS.

York is a comparatively small coun-
ty; but nevertheless any attempt at
general statement Of crop conditions is
likely to fail Of exactness in its appli-
cation to some particular localities.
The Enquirer has been under the i'm
preston that the crop outlook Is very
good, better perhaps than 1t has been
in quite a while at this season; but
there are others who think differently.
In making inquiries last Saturday, the
reporter ran across two farmers OF
equal intelligence and reliability who
hold to exactly opposite views:
1T is the poorest prospect for crop
that | have noted at this season for
years." said a farmer of the Beershe-
ba neighborhood. "Ordinorily at this
time, my cotton is from fifteen to
twenty inches high and blooms are
plentiful all over the field. Now 1t will
hardly average more than seven or
eight inches and you've got to hunt
to find a square. 1t Is the same with
my neighbors. One of my neighbors
has the reputation of being the best
cotton farmer on our side of the coun-
ty. At a distance of hundred or two
yards his fields actually look red of
the clay. You are not certain that he
has a crop of cotton planted. l have
already worked my cotton more than
usually have to work it and make a
crop and it is clean; but | notice that
when | plow, the plow handles shake
and tremble in my hands in a way that
is not right. The land seems lifeless-
dead | don't know what is the matter
except maybe it is because each rain
until the last one few days ago, has
been followed by a cool spell 1t is all
plenty of time for outcome; but that
is not the question. The question is
what is the prospect right now. l say
it is poor-as poor as l have ever
seen It,"
Another gentleman, not very large
farmer, had occasion to go through the
country from Yorkville to Sharon one
day last week and on his return spoke
enthusiastically of both corn and cot
ton, claiming that they are doing all
that could be desired Of them.
Still another gentleman, a large far
mer on the eastern side of Yorkville.
says his own crops are as good as he
could desire. and so far as he has
baen able IN seq the crouS of all of his
lneighborS are also good.

DEATH OF A BULL DOG.

Ruler, the big white English bull ter
rier was crushed under the wheels or
the train at the Carolina and North
Western station last Saturday morn
ing, and injured so badly that he had to
be knocked in the head with a hatchet
to put an end to his suffering. Quite
a number of people witnessed the In
cident and many of them were not a
little affected at the tragedy Of 1t.
All the people who meet the trains
knew Ruler. He belonged to Mr.. F..
Wolf, the agent. He was big. power
full dangerous looking and the disdain-
full contempt in which he seemed to
hold ordinary ours was suggestive Of
the fact that he probably realized that
he was a thorough bred, in class OF
his own.
For many months past Ruler has been
meeting every train, and his habit had
become a matter Of general notice.
AS soon as the train would stop he
would walk under the baggage car and
lie down. Some people had 1t that his
purpose was merely to get In the
shade; 1t may have been to be close to
his master and at the same time out
of his way. AS the train would start
he would get up and walk out with a
slow deliberation that carried the Idea
that he did not believe that any Of
the wheels would dare approach until
he was safely out of their way, else
he might choose to teach them to be
more respectful.
This time. Ruler was not quite quick
enough. AS the train started he got
up as usual; but was too late to get
out and he, was knocked down by a
brake beam, which rolled him over. 1t
Is possible that he could have saved
himself by jumping; but instead he
Strengthened up and growled at the
next oncoming beam. This one also
knocked hirn down and one Of his fore
legs was caught under a wheel. In
stead of running over the leg the
wheel carried it sliding along the rail,
dragging Rller with 1t. The dog whim-
pered a little for the first time; but de-
voted his attention mainly to swapping
at the wheel that seemed to be giving
him pain. After a few moments the
wheel got better hold and ran over
and broke the leg. Another brake
beam turned the dog over and threw
it under a truck which passed across
it's hind quarters.
When the train passed away the dog
was left still on the track. Those who
witnessed the tragedy thought the an
imal was dead and after a little, one
of them seized it by the ears to drag
it from the track. Ruler raised his head
and looked first at one and then at am
other as If he would find someone who
could give him aid, and the quest be-
ing apparently unsatisfactory, laid
down again.
They told Mr.. Wolf that his dog was
dead and he stood it pretty we'll until
he found that the animal was still in
misery and then in considerable agita-
ton he begged that somebody would
kill it as quickly as possible. Mr..
Marley, Mr.. VOLTS assistant, got a
hatchet and struck it on the head.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1906-06-26

the same passes through Mr.. Johnson's
premises and the engine struck it just
as it was turning to get off the track.
The horse was thrown against an en-
bankment and died within about fifteen
minutes.
At a meeting of the town council
last Friday night action was taken
that means the practical re-organi-
zation of the town government. 1t
was arranged that the water, light
and power departments be separated
from the police department as far
as possible and conducted as inde-
pendent businesses under the super
vision Of the commissioners Of public
works. Mr.. John w. Barnwell Is to
have charge. Mr.. P. w. Love Is to
be responsible for the administration
of the police department, and Mr..
G.. T. Schorb is to be treasurer and
clerk. The new arrangement Is to
go into effect on July l.
- Claude Moore, the infant daugh-
ter of Senator and Mrs ]. s. Brice,
died Sunday morning about two
o'clock. The little sufferer had been
critically i'll with a bowel disorder
for nearly four weeks, and during
a greater part of the time life hung
seemingly as If by a thread. There
were intervals in which the devoted
parents, one or both Of them at the
bedside nearly every moment, watch
ing with anxious concern for signs Of
improvement, were encouraged to
hope; and even in despair there was
no relaxation Of their loving vigil
lance. Death resulted from dysen-
terry. The funeral took place last
Sunday evening at six o'clock, the SER
vices being commenced at the house
and concluded at the grave, by Rev.
J.. P. Knox, assisted by Rev. w. G.
Ewart. There was a large concourse
of friends of the family in attendance
upon the service, and numerous floral
tributes were rendered by sympathi-
zers of the bereaved parents. The
little girl was aged about two years.
