To show this place leaden bullets upon . sheet of shoemaker's wax and then support the whole upon corks. At the end of month the corks will be found floating upon the sheet of wax instead of beneath it and the bullets will be at the bottom as in liquid.

iSuitoT FOTt Mill llmeS.
wish to call your attention to the
news item in last weeks issue of
your valuable paper, regarding the fire
at the house on White street. The
item stated that the fire spent itself
before the dilapidatcd hose belonging
to the town of Fort Mill was brought
into action. This hose was not put
into action, but instead. when the fire
was noticed by Mr.. Mckenzie the
alarm was given by the mill whistle
calling forth the members OF the No.
mill fire department from their
dinner tables. They promptly stretch
ed two 300-foot mill hose lines across
the railroad track and through sys-
tematic work got the fire under con-
troll before the roof of the house
burned through. The faithfulness of
the No. mill boys Is to be commend
cd, as their prompt and energetic ac-
uon saved the adjoining houses from
possible destruction.
! wish to thank them and other
volunteers through your paper For
tho good services given in the saving
of outside property.

ANGUS CATTLE GO WILD
Gay Hill Farmer Stalks Animals
I1at Refuse Ia BE ucrdrd

A remarkable instance of domesti-
Gated animals answering the call OF
the wild and following their prima
instinct has been furnished by n hero
OF IL Aberdeen Angus cattle belonging
to John j. Nivens. well known farmer
OF the Clay Hill section OF the county.
Few miles northwest OF Fort MIL.
Last sprin the cattle were turneu
INTO large pasture on the land oi

his Aliisoh creek. With an abund-
ahce or grass. water and everything
else neccss AIRY for their comfort nj
their disposal, the cattle were left Ia
themselves. Living III the dense
thickets and cunebrakcs that border
big Allison creek. the cattle were
soon entirely out of touch with pco-
pie, Dut not until Il few days ago was
IL known that they had thrown Off
'heir thin veneer of domcStication
ana reverted TO the wild state OF
their far off proEcn!tors.
This came To light following dcpre-

cattle had been confined. An investi-

an attempt WAS made to round them
up. Ihen the surprise came. They
were f"unc to be as wild as deer. fled
al the sight OF man and went througn
or over bnrbed wire fences with n
facility almost unbelievable. After
Mr.. Nivens and his neighbors had
made repeated unavailing efforts to
capture the cattle alive, they began
hunting them with guns and dogs
ike wild creatures of the forest.
Nearly all the herd have been killed

them being chased and shot down as
