There will be no issue Of The En-
quirer next Friday. The next issue Is
due on December 81.
In our statement Of the Wylie will
case last Friday, the types made us say
that the testatrix left her property Ito
Tony Meek, an ex-slave and her son.
The statement should have been Ito
Tony Meek, an ex-slave and his,
Meeks son." The deceased left no
children.
All present subscribers to The En-
uuirer will receive the issue for jan
uary 3, whether their names have been
returned for another year or not. This
Is to make good for the issue Of De-
cember q, which Is TO be omitted. Af-
ter ]. auary 3, however, all expired and
unreturned subscribers will be stricken
from the list.
There will be a sunrise prayer
meeting in the Associate Reformed
church tomorrow morning. Rev. W. c.
Ewart made the announcement from
the pulpit last Sunday. He invited the
members of the congregation to be
present and requested them to extend
the invitation to all the people Of the
community. The understanding is that
the congregation will assemble during
the fifteen minutes before sunrise, and
the services will commence just as the
sun begins to, show itself and continue
for half an hour. This service will be
in lieu Of the regular prayer meeting
service.
There are no strings tied to the Rock
Hill buggies that The Enquirer is Of
fering to the clubmakers returning the
largest clubs from their respective
townships. The buggies are to be
awarded in every instance whether the
largest clubs consist Of five hundred
subscribers or only ten subscribers. II
is only a question of the largest club
returned and paid for in accordance
with the published proposition. There
are two or mole clubmakers at work In
each of the townships; but in several
instances the largest township clubs
returned up to date are so small that
almost any energetic worker can dis
count them with only two or three
days effort
/ Most of the business men Of York
VILE are agreed that the coming OF
these carnival shows Is an injury
rather than a help to business. If the
shows do we'll they not only contribute
lots of demoralization; but take away
a great deal of money. II they do not
do so we'll, they contribute a good deal
of decentralization all the same. The
show that was here last week did not
take a great deal Of money out Of the
town. They did not do much more
than pay expenses. If they helped bus
mess at all, it was very little. 1t would
have been just as we'll and perhaps a
little better If they had not been allow
ed to come. But come they will. The
town authorities have always found 1t
impossible to resist them. and there Is
no reason to hope for anything better
in the near future.
And by the way, while everybody
else is being remembered Christmas,
don't let us forget those bully good fell
lows, the railroad conductors, Capts.
Ross and Isaacs on the C. & NV,
and Capts. Barxtell, Abergotti, Graham,
Gunthrope, Mcguire, Clark and Sulli-
van. And the engineers too, Uncle
Bob Smyre and Cane Lynn on the c. &
NV, and Messrs. Crow, Lee. Groce,
Dunlap, Albrecht and Hammersly on
the Southern. All Of these men are in
the public service, and each and every
one of them has established reputa-
ton for faithfulness and loyalty to
duty. In truth they represent a high
order Of manhood. All who have come
in contact with them have been i'm
pressed with this fact, and whether
they come in for more specific tokens
Of appreciation or not, all Of them have
a right to feel that they stand high
in the public regard.
