ASSAULT ON TRAIN.

There have been two assaults on the
Southern train near YOrkville within
the past few days, one on Wednesday
night with a rock and the other this
morning with n bullet, and the situa-
tion is becoming serious.
While coming from Charlotte by way
of Blacksburg last Wednesday night
Mr.. J. w. Kirkpatrick was struck with
a rock that was thrown from the side
of the railroad. Tired and sleepy al
the time, he sat, with his head resting
on his arms, which were resting on the
back Of the seat in front of him, when
a stone struck him with considerable
force on the arm. Mr.. Kirkpatrick
looked out the window and caught a
dim outline of the person who threw
the rock. but that was all. The stone
struck him with considerable force
and the arm is still quite sore.
Shortly after the early train from
Rock Hill came into the corporate linn
it's of Yorkville this morning, bullet
clashed through a window only about
six inches i'm front of two passengers
Messrs Henry Massey of Rock Hill
and a. NJ. Haddon of Sharon. The
train was passing through a deep cut
at the time, and the fact that the bullet
did not go through the opposite win
dow seemed to indicate that it was
fired from either above or below in
stead of on a level.
Before Mr.. Massey or Mr.. Haddon
could inform the conductor the whis-
tie blew for the station, and it was
deemed just as well to come on 70
Yorkville and turn the matter over to
the sheriff and police.
Sheriff Brown, Chief Love, Deputy
Sheriff Quinn, Constable Sanders with
other officers procured the stockade
bloodhounds and went down to the
point where the shooting occurred
but the dogs were unable to strike the
trail of the miscreant. The investiga-
ton, however, is still in progress.

WITHIN THE TOWN.

Cotton sold at 14l yesterday.
THE chrysanthemum show is COM
ing soon.
1t is pretty generally admitted that
the local cotton market has been unus-
ually good all this fall up to this time,
st. Elmo is to be the next attrac-
ton at the opera house. This story
has been read by scores of thousands,
and more people have seen the play
than have read the story.
Manager Johnson is well pleased
with the opening of the opera house
Tuesday night. He says the people of
Yorkville and surrounding country
showed most gratifying appreciation.
Constable Wingate of Rock Hill
came over yesterday afternoon to
serve claim and delivery papers in the
case of some whisky that Constable
Sanders seized in Rock Hill not long
ago.
Mr.. w. II. Herndon has about de-
cided to permit the cutting up of his
property on West Madison street into
town lots. There are fifteen or twenty
acres of the property in very deslr-
able ncighborhOOd, and its development
will contribute very materially to So
luton of the residence problem.
The Yorkvile Graded school which
suspended recently on account OF the
diphtheria quarantine, will probably
resume next Monday and the quaran-
tined pupils will take up where they
left off, having lost nothing on account
of quarantine, because of the SuSpen-
sion operating to hold the other chll-
dren back. What effect the little IN
cident may have on future efforts to
ti,n
developments.

which the town of YOrkville is govern

BETTER PLEASED WITH HOME.

II would not give my own little farm
down i'm the Delphos neighborhood,
with all the advantages we enjoy in
this country. for the best and biggest
ranch i'm Texas"
That is the way that Mr.. J. Bolivar
Scott feels after recent visit to rela-
tives and friends i'm Gonzales county.
He had a pleasant trip, of course. and
his relatives and friends gave him roy
al treatment: but he was not at all
carried away with the boasted advan-
tages of their country. On the contra
nv. the best expression he could find
for his kindly feelings for the good
friends i'm Gonzales was in an effort TO
persuade them to return To York coun-
ty where even people who do not real
iZe it because they have never seen
any worse. know how to live.
Il was only in Gonzales a week.
said Mr.. Scott: and | could not stand
it any longer. Of course, if my people
out there were only here instead. |
would he glad to be with them always;
but for me a week in that forsaken
country is long enough. Why, they
have nothing out there that York
county man would want-nO water, no
fruit, no vegetables, no grass, no trees,
no nothing. | told Uncle Clark that
about the only thing they had that
seemed to he as good as ours was their
moOnshine. and | am not real certain
about that.
Texas a great country! Why | be-
gan to notice deterioration as soon as
| got out of York county. and it kept
growing worse all the way, except
saw some pretty fine peas i'm the Lou
isiana corn fields and a good showing
of rice around Eagle Lake; but when
| got to Gonzales county, it looked to
me as if it must certainly be the limit.
Il got into Herwood at about
o'clock in the morning and as the next
train did not leave for Gonzales until
about 10 o'clock, | decided that | could
save time by travelling the distance,
about twelve miles, by private convey
ance. The best animal the liveryman
had was n little old lame rabbit of a
mule that would have excited the ridi-
culc of the YOrkville back lot traders
on a salcsday, and when he told me
that he was going to charge me $3.50,
he came near knocking me off my feet.
I don't want to buy that thing | told
him. | wouldn't have it at home, |
certainly would not know what to do
with it out here oh, he'll take YOU
there all right said the liveryman, and
although | was still bit doubtful, it

MARRIED AND PARTED.
Young Couple Get Married as a Joke
and Judge Unties Knot.

Quite a sensation for a number of
people was sprung at Indian Fields
campground Sunday afternoon in the
marriage of two we'll known young
people, and the after effects of the
same.
1t seems that Sunday afternoon on
the campgrounds Miss Ida Fairey oi
near Branchvile. and Mr.. William
Shuler of Bowman, were twitting each
other about getting married. They
went so far as to try and back each
other down, claiming it to be joke
Then they went to the preachers tent
where Rev. ]. w. Arial was found, and
in a few moments the young people
were made man and wife.
After the blushing groom had paid
the minister the usual fee for such ser
vices the gravity Of his predicamcnt
dawned upon him. The groom COM
plained at once that he thought 1t was
only a Joke: that he could not support
a wife. and made other excuses for
wanting to he out of the contract. He
went to the preacher and wanted the
preacher to undo the work, but was
informed that was impossible. There
upon the new made bride was left up
on her own account on the grounds
while the groom proceeded to look for
a lawyer and try to get unmarried
The bride came on home, while the
groom went to his home.
Parties interested in the affair ap-
peared before Judge Moss at Orange
burg Tuesday and secured the sign
ing of an order annulling the mar
riage. on the grounds that both of the
parties were willing for it to be an
nulled and that they were trying to
back each other out of an agreement.
Thus a predicament is settled that
threatened very seriously for a snort
while.-Branchville Journal.

fight and the only means they have of
fighting is to pay more for cotton than
the combine pays. The combine, of
course. meets this development hy va
rious eXpcdicntS. one of these schemes
works like this. The combine lays in
wait until it can catch the new man
buying a lot of cotton just before the
close of the days weighing. Then a
member of the combine will buy sim
gle bale at a dollar or two over the
market, have it rushed into the scales
and the price posted, and when the new
mans lot comes in he is soaked for n
Jolt that hurts. But ordinarily to run
a new man out of the market, espc-
cially if the new man he a man of cX-
periencc and resource, is not an easy
matter. ordinarily, he pursues the
policy of paying the limit for every
bale and taking all the cotton until the
combine is willing to come to terms by
either admitting him on an equal foot
ing or agreeing to sell him at a rea-
sonable profit to themselves, cotton
that they themselves have bought from
wagons.
