Tilt CITY REVENUES
 FOR CURRENT YEAR
Tax Receipts Will Exceed Last Year
 Nearly $7,OOO.

c. w. Barnett. city assessor and tax collector has finished up his assess ment roll for the year and it shows the tax valuation of city property to be S5.642,544.J0. The valuation one year ago was S5,524,74S. the increase being S117, ,796.5O.
 The amount due for taxes last year was S55,247.4S less the exemptions for widows, church property. charitable in stitutions. etc, which amounted to $2,- 523.45, leaving a net collection for the revenue of the city amounting to S52.- T24.03. The taxes due for collection this year. at the rate of S1.1O amount to S62- 067-9S. less the exemptions. which nat urally will be a little larger than last year, owing to larger population. val uation, etc. This exemption cannot be calculated yet but it is estimated that 1t will be about S2SOO, which will leave a revenue to the city this year of about S59,4679S, or approximately S67OO more than last year.

A HOODOO-GabrieI Stickney, a rancher, who resides west of the city, yesterday morning was the victim o1 an accident in which he sustained break in the upper part of his left arm. He is well along in years, and it is likely to be some time before he has the use of the broken member. He claims that a hoodoO is located some place in his neighborhood. A short time ago his stepson, Elmer Clark, had his ankle broken. and, in addition, af- fairs on his ranch are not going the best. His cattle have become infected with black leg and some are dying.

Auent Hill Under Charges.

Thomas NJ. Hill, formerly agent for
the Southern railway at Greer, stands
indicted before the general sessions
court at Greenville, for embezzlement
of funds from the Southern. The
grand jury returned three true bills
against him. Hill was arrested more
than year ago on warrant sworn
out by the American Surety company
of New York, charged with embezzle-
ment of $4,000 from the Southern rail-
way. He gave justified bond OF 3d.
600 for his appearance at court.
On account of the prominence OF
the young man in church and social
circles the trial will be followed with
unusual interest.
The trial recalls thrilling and dan
gerous experience which Mr.. Hill had
several years ago. An effort was made
to rcb the safe at Greer, and Hill, who
was IN charge Of the Office that night,
came near sacrificing his life in saV-
ing the company's property.
