dissatisfied with him. Last Monday he
was arrested on a warrant from Ian
caster charging him with obtaining
money under false pretenses. Hearing
of this charge, the trustees Of his
church met and decided that he should
sever his connection with the congre-
CATION until some disposition had been
made of the charge against him. Sun
day night the services were being con-
Quoted by Sherman Sanders. Arnold
accompanied by another preacher
named Carter, came to the church
rather late, and Arnold Immediately
took charge. He gave out a hymn to
the congregation and began reading 1t
line after line when Sanders informed
him that he (Sanders), was in charge.
Arnold paid no attention to Sanders
and continued reading. Sanders then
grasped him by the arm and escorted
him from the rostrum: There was some
commotion among the congregation
and 1t was deemed best to dismiss the
assembly. Arnold lives in Yorkville,
and at present is here. The trustees of
the negro church intend taking up the
matter Immediately in order to arrive
at some conclusion as to Arnold's re-
lation to the Zion Methodists.
Things have been happening at the
Ancona mill since Cannon & Company
took charge out there, some three
months ago, and in few weeks the
mill will hardly be recognizable.
Among other improvements will be the
addition to the mill building, which is
now we'll underway. The addition Is to
be about 300 feet long and the width
of the old mill. 1t is to be one story
high and is to have a concrete
floor with a top dressing Of ma
pie, and is to be covered with
the usual style of mill roofing. Be-
sides the addition to the mill, large
water tank or standpipe Is now almost
completed. The tank or rather tanks,
there being two, one Of $4,000 gallons
capacity above and one Of 10000 gal
Ions capacity suspended underneath, is
supported on iron work about sixty
feet high, making the total height of
the tank about S5 feet. 1t Is under
stood that the $4,000 gallon tank is to
be used for fire purposes, and the 10,-
900 tank for drinking water. The wa
ter supply Is to come from two arte-
sian wells which are to be bored a
short distance from the tank. A portion
of the old warehouse that stood SOUTH
east of the mill has been torn down to
make room for the new addition to the
mill, and 1t Is understood that a new
warehouse is to be built at the other
end of the mill, between the boiler
room and the mill offices. Another i'm
provement is the relaying Of the South
ern's spur track from the main line to
the mill. The old track had to be NOV
ed from its old bed about 100 feet, In
order to make room for the south end
of the addition, and the track has also
been extended out toward the offices in
order to reach the site Of the new
warehouse that is soon to be built. A
complete rock crushing plant Is In
operation crushing stone into rubble
| for use in the foundation walls and for
flooring the addition. When the build
ing is completed, 1t is understood that
500 Draper looms are to be added to
the mills equipment. and as one man
can handle eighteen to twenty looms,
this will mean an addition of about
twenty-five hands for these machines
alone, and as the 500 looms Will re-
quire more yarn, of course more work
ers will be needed in the spinning de-.
partments. Altogether the additional
machinery will probably require an
addition to the working force Of sixty
or more. Another noticeable feature
about the mill village is the number
of new people who live there and the
absence of others who have been there
| for varying periods. AS one man ex-
pressed It, ''This is good place to
| live. There isn't any rowdyism on the
| hill now, and everybody seems to be
happy and contented."
