TROUBLE NARROWLY AVERTsD
White Sereeants March colored SOL
diers Into a Hotel at St. Matthews.

diers Into a Hotel at st. Matthews.
Three white sergeants in charge Of a
baseball nine of negroes came near
stirring up a genuine hornets nest
here this morning, says st. Matthew's
dispatch of Tuesday. Arriving in town
about $50 o'clock, the negroes, VINO
were also in uniform, were marched
directly to the hotel. No one suspect
ing the purpose Of the officers in
charge, paid any especial attention un-
til it was learned that they had march
ed upstairs and had ordered breakfast
and taken charge Of the lobby. The
presence of the negroes confounded
the proprietor, Mrs. Herlong, and in
very few moments it was known over
town. Before a crowd could gather
they were advised to get out lest they
be summarily elected This they seem
to have done in leisurely way with
out evincing any knowledge Of the fact
that they had committed breach OF
southern manners. When they arrived
again on the streets, their manners
were not of q penitent nature. A num-
ber Of leading citizens had come upon
the scene and when advised OF the ug-
liness Of their conduct, one or the SER
geants is said to have resented II.
The timely appearance or SherlH
Hill prevented trouble. He ADVISED the
sergeants to leave town. However, att-
sr having gone back to the station 10
take the next train out, it was learned
that the conduct of the whole party In
getting off at the station and at other
places when they were not suspected,
had been Of a taunting nature and the
party was waited upon by men ready
to enforce their demands, and lnsteau
of waiting for the train thev took the
foot route up the railway TO Columbia
1t is stated by those who are said TO
have seen the party when they arrived
at the hotel, the negroes baked ana
said they did not want to go up the
stairway and that thereupon the white
sergeants took them by the arms ana
virtually forced them in. No one here
believes the negroes would nave at
tempted to secure accommodations at
the hotel had they not been under the
direction of the white officers and the
feeling Of the people here was directed
at the sergeantS.

Clover July 3.-Clover people wit
messed an unusual sight here Monday
afternoon when a large quantity OF
moonshine liquor, some fifteen gallons
or more, was poured into the ditch
near the town guardhouse in accord
ance with law. The liquor was seized
near town several weeks ago by OIL
acers who found it in patch Of woods
The stuff, 1t Is said had been brought
10 the outskirts Of Glover from the
vicinity of South Mountain. N. C., by
tigers who intended-to sell it to Glover
liuuor- heads at the rate Of Sc quart
and up. But officers getting on to the
racket, seized the stuff and also two
white men alleged to be connected
with it. One of them paid a fine OF
5000 following his conviction on the
charge of transporting and storing,
while the other paid a fine of $26 for
storing.
There was quito crowd around
the town lookup Monday, when the
pouring out ceremony was held, news
of the occurrence having been noised
about. And as the fiery fluid ran trick
ling down. the street toward Catawba
river, there was evidence of more than
one watery mouth. Indeed 1t Is said
that one or more persons tried to get

all-fours and tapping little ct 1t up

quantity trickles in from over the North

it used to be and the supply is getting
scarcer and scarcer all the while.
The Hawthorn to Build.
NJ. L. Smith, manager of the Haw-
thorn Spinning mills said Tuesday
that 1t was proposed to build an ad-
dition to the Hawthorn Mil to ac-
commodate 5000 additional spindles as
soon as possible, the contract to be
let in the near future. The addition
will be a building 1OOx15O feet ana
will provide for need which mas

ment for some time. Both mills OF
Glover are now running at full time
and are facing the greatest prosperity
in their history. The card rooms are
being operated at night.
Two Baseball Teams
Glover, which not so many years ago
had a reputation as the town that put
ont the best amateur baseball teams
70 be found anywhere around, has two
teams this year and although they are
perhaps not so good as some OF the
teams that have been here in the years
gone by, still they are pretty good ana
baseball lovers will have opportunity
to see some pretty good games this
summer Boys Of both the Hawthorn
and Glover Mills have organized teams
each of which has already played sew
eral games this season. The Glover
Mill team staged a game with the
Ozark Mill team in Gastonia, last Sat-

England Bare.

England has never been barer Of
manufactured cotton goods in the last
60 years. DO not have the impression
that the American mills have supplied
the need for the manufactured product
in England. Such is not the case. The
war created an abnormal demand for
raw cotton. This and the destruction
Of cotton during the war has been en-
tirely overlooked and the European
wants are entirely under estimated
and have probably been kept in the
dark by the American manufacturers,
who are reaping a golden harvest.
Experts are now in Europe repre-
senting the American Cotton associa

above. They state in addition that Eu-
