To Clubmakers.
We will be very much obliged If al
clubmakers to The Enquirer will be
careful to write the names of sub
scribers plainly, give postoffice address
in every instance and say whether the
subscribers are old or new. If the sub
scriber has not been taking the paper
since July Is last, the fact may be in
dicated by placing an IN" after the
name. Otherwise the status may be in
dicated by an "R" for renewal" Care
full attention to this request will great
ly facilitate the clerical work in this
office.
Situation at Winthrop.
Rock Hill Record: The fever situa-
ton at Winthrop college Is greatly
improved. DR.. Kinard states that 1t
will only be q week or so until the
MANY students who went home at the
outbreak have returned, and are pur-
suing the daily routine Of studies. The
workings of the institution have new
er closed for a moment, even during
the most trying period Of the epidem-
ic, and the management and Drs.
Miller and Crawford are to be con-
graduated upon the efficient handling
Of the situation, which meant so
much to Winthrop, the students, and
the city Of Rock Hill.
The D. A. RS in Session.
The annual conference Of the South
Carolina Daughters of the American

regent. Mrs. Bratton reviewed the
work that has been done by the state
organization up to the present time
and outlined the work now in hand
The sessions Of the conference contin-
ued through yesterday. The Sumter

To March on Yorkville.
Chester Reporter: Company G, First
South Carolina regiment, Capt ]. S
McKeown commanding, will leave
their armory at Cornwell, Monday
morning at 9 o'clock and march to
Yorkville, the purpose being to engage
in target practice on the company
range at Yorkville. Capt. McKeown
expects to have thirty men in line fol
the march, and he hopes to reach the
objective point in good order and
without any delays, unless unseasona-
BILE weather shall retard progress and
compel the command to go into camp
Monday evening. This movement is
something new, and the result will be
watched with interest by military men
all over the state.
Up to Cherokee.
Supervisor Boyd and Commissioner
Kirkpatrick, were present at meeting
Of the county board of commissioners
held in Yorkville last Saturday for the
purpose Of further considering the
proposition for the erection Of a steel
bridge across Broad river. Messrs.
Fowler and Estes were present, repre-
senting the Cherokee county commit
tee and MessIS. w. S. Wilkerson and
]. ]. J. Robinson represented the peo-
pie on the York side Of the river At
ter giving the matter full and thorough
consideration, Messrs. Boyd and Kirk
patrick passed resolution putting the
York board on record as being willing
to allow the Cherokee board to select
a location anywhere in the immediate
vicinity of HowelPs ferry, and pledging
this county to pay half the expense of
erection as we'll as half the expense of
subsequent maintenance. The prin-
cipal thing that has been keeping the
two boards apart, heretofore, is the fact
that on a proposition to have the two
counties meet in the middle Of the riv-
er with the understanding that each
county will afterward maintain its own
approaches, some locations are to the
advantage Of one county and some to
the other. The proposition that the
York board now adopts seems reason
able and lust to both sides.
Pretty Home Wedding.
Chester Reporter: A pretty home
wedding was solemniZed at the home
Of Mr. and Mrs. w. Y. White on Gen.
ter street early yesterday morning,
when their oldest daughter, Miss
Kate, became the bride Of Mr. Mason
Fl. Blair. The house was beautifully
decorated for the occasion. The COL
or scheme in the parlor, where the
ceremony was performed, was white
and green, numerous ferns and potted
plants being also placed around the
room and helping to beautify the
scene. The guests were met at the
door by Miss Dollie Hardcma1, who
ushered them into the parlor, where
they awaited the coming Of the bridal
pair. Miss Lizzie Hardin played the
wedding march, and to Mendelssohn'
immortal strains the couple entered.
There were no attendants. Taking
their place before Rev. c. E. McDon-
aid they were made man and wife, in
a ceremony beautifully sweet and
impressive. After hurried congratu-
lations Mr. and Mrs. Blair boarded the
c. & NV. passenger train for the
groom's home near Sharon, where
they expect to live. A prOfusion OF
lovely and serviceable presents at
tested the esteem in which Mr.. and
Mrs. Blair are held by their numer-
Gus friends. AS Miss White, the bride
has always been numbered among Ches-
ter's most popular young ladies. She
is the possessor of splendid traits Of
heart and mind, and Mr.. Blair is to
be congratulated upon winning her
as his life partner. Mr.. Blair, while
now living near Sharon where he Is
engaged in farming, was for several
months employed here by JOS. Wylie
& Co., and while in Chester made
many friends, who will wish for him
and his bride, all kinds Of good for
