There will be a meeting in the court bouse to-night at 8 o’clock to'make a last effort in bebalf of the proposition to secure tbe lo cation of the Presbyterian col lege of South Carolina in York viue. The Associate Reformed con gregation of Yorkville still has under consideration the idea of a new church building; but as yet has determined upon noth ing definite. School begins next Monday. Tbe children arc sorry, and the parents are sorry too; bat in the case of the latter the sorrow is because school did not begin last Monday. Tbe summer school will close at Betbesda, Sept. 8. Miss Anna McCarley who has had charge of this school for the Sast two months is well liked y both patrons and students, and the trustees expect to em ploy her for tbe fall and winter terms. Tbe fall meeting will. com mence at Bethesda on Sept. 8, and continue through Sundaf. Rev. W. A. Hefner of Bowling Green will assist the pastor. Mias Cano Stephenson, who has been visiting her aunt, Mrs. S. C. Byers, returned to her home st Winusboro Thursday. Now that the cotton crop of York county is so neatly ready for harvest,it ia practically t cer tain that the yield is lighter than it was last year. The crop is by no means a failure; but ft is not nearly so heavy as many had reason to believe a few week* back that it would be. The action of the board of governors of .the commercial club of Rock Hill in trying to aboliph gambling from its clnb .rooms will meet with general approval. There has been no gambling nor liquor drinking in the rooms of the Commercial club of Yorkville. Neither offense would be tolerated. The recent bond issue of the York Cotton mills amounting to $85,000, baa been financed by and through Ur. Sam U. Me Neel and the Loan ahd Savings bank: Practically all of the bonds have been taken in York ville, mostly by privste indi viduals. The bonds .ran for fifteen years and draw six per . cent interest. The Loan and Savings bank is trustee. This , is the largest single financial transaction that has ever been made In Yorkville, and it was perfected in all ita details with AHt • hit*,!, ' Then: «u| tremendous crowd «t Tiraah yesterday. It wu gathered from all parts of York couaty, the north, the east, the sooth and the west and included something like 2,000 or 2,300 people. i It was a thoroughly represen tatives crowd made np of all kinds of folks, men, women end children—people who think and Who are concerned shoot the welfare of the county and pew pie who don’t think and don’t earn. The occasion of the gnat setnbUge was tha muchheralded joint debate between Seaaten - . Tinman and Brice on the mertti of tha Brice law si a remade 1 for the dispensary evil and thfi was practically tbe only feature of the aearclsei of tha day. as •i . e .s s • * * • c —S- — —I lea* creditable to the cause be represent*. People who handle more or less money from day to day have been struck with the increase in the number of one dollar bills. Until recently the $5 bill was the smallest note in common circulation, nil under that being silver. There have been some $1 bills, of course; but the pro portion as compared with silver was something like one to five or ten. Now tbe banks are pay ing over their counters as much money iu one dollar bills as they are in silver dollars. Just where the bills are coming from, it fats not been practicable to deter mine. One of tbe bankers suggested tbe other day tbst quite a number of them were brought from Columbia by the military boys; but this accounts for only a small per ccntage of the total amount in circulation. Some people prefer the bills to silver and others prefer tbe sil ver dollar. The banks rstber prefer tbe silver dollar, and are inclined to ship tbe bills away. The silver dollar is not at all popular in the north. Up there they use but little silver except in making change under a dol lar. It has been so for fifteen or twenty yean; but down this way, ailver haa had the more general vogue. It ia possible that custom is ■ undergoing a gradual change. Am* Stand to Death by Dana.

You see Alex held the position of slop-hauler for our towns-people who are disposed to feed the hell-soup (so the preachers call it) to their swine. Alexander had i n s t landed at Mr. V. T.

Ctn*]ml Star. Mr. Cbaacey C. Grigg, a pop ular tod prosperous farmer, of New House,* was. ia this office Friday, and while here, gave ns tome pointers on corn and cot ton farming which will doubtless be interesting and profitable to his fellow farmers. He states that thk bast compost for cotton or corn is a mixture .of phos phate and cotton seed meal, 100 pounds of tile si to every 200 pounds of phosphate. About 300 '-pounds of this mixture should be placed on two acres of land, or 150 pounds to tbe acre. He baa been using this for five years and baa had very sncceeafnl results. Prom 14 tctes la cotton this year be win get 14 bales. This compost may be applied m thick as yon can to put. “The more tbe better,* says Mr, Grin. Yet be knows that 150 pounds to tbe acre will , make a good crop. ’ He is very much pleased with the forming In his neighborhood, stating that close ’observers say that the best orops in tbe state caa be found there. Such good crops are doe to tbe fact that tbe neighbors race to see who . can produce tbe biggest yield from tbe smallest acreage.

The committee rec ommended that a general Geld agent and organiser for national aa well es State organizations be appointed, wboae chief duty it shall be to collect funda for car rying out the association's aims and objects. To secure these funds a tax of three cents on each bale raised by members of the association is to be levied. The report named E. D. Smith, of Columbia. S.

I »c suspension oi vice-tresi dcut Peters was discussed, but no drastic action was taken. ULUVUS CUNTS TlUt The Southern Cotton Growers’ Association, in convention at Kenilworth Ian, last night es tablished a minimum price of 11 cents for the incoming crop.. This action was reached after a lour hours' struggle in the minimum price committee’s room this afternoon, and a joint sreret conference of the commit tee and the general committee last night. It was a contest in which growers, spinners, manu facturers and brokers were in volvcd and one in which the combined in floes ce of all these elements was into play, in and out of the meetings, which pre ceeded the night’s work. After the announcement of the esti mate of the crop yield of 1905 and 1900 the fight narrowed down to two factions, one hold ing out for 10*4 cents, the other 11 cents, notwithstanding, the fact that an outside element clamored for 12 cents. Some of the growers yesterday afternoon were inclined to the opinion that the unexpectedly abort yield crop report would have a tend ency to push the minimum to 12 cents, but it was known that these prediction* would not be fulfilled when the price commit tee emerged from its caucus. "We have' labored 1 i k c a mountain and brought forth a mouse,” said one of theperspir ing committeemen. "The con servative element win.” It is the general opinion among the committeemen that the farmers will stand by the 11 cent price and bold their cotton. Dodoes and Newspaper Mon QasrroL Charlotte News. Columbia. S. C.. Sept. 7.— The Columbia lfedkal Society ia composed of some, of the ablest physicians in the country, but they are "agin” the news papers. Recently they passed a rule strongly condemning the publication of the names of any of the members engaged in any case. This rale has caused a lot of talk. . , The newspapers generally are not paying ranch attention to the resolution, bat a great many of the doctors am insisting that it shall be obeyed nod refuse to give o piece of sews nntess the __1_s. __ pivuiiKa MVI VV MK MAS name. Now some of this talk is re garded M bluff, although there Is po doubt bat that aiaay of the older physicians stick oat for the ethics of tbe profession, sad insist on tbe rale. The principle is regarded as bad by the newspaper men They think they ere competent to judge when an unprincipled member ol the profession desires free ad entiling. J . However, tbe action of the medical society has aot only been condemned by the Colum bia newspapers, bat by the newspapers outside ol Col up bis, and tbe general impression seems to by that the doctors have ' made themselves ridicu lous. . Mr. Sll Lanier s prominent and highly esteemed cl risen of Chinquapin. Duplin county, was thrown from his horse while fox burning and eras instantly killed.

C., Sept. 7.—Tbr investigation into tbe killing ol Charles Xall, aged thirty, i patient from Chatham County, at the State Asylum for tbe In sane, wbo died two weeks ago, has resulted iu the arrest afUu tour attendants, all young men, whom the coroner’s jury fiada are responsible for his death. . A farmer, whose wagon tbs insane man tried to capture, gave the first news that then was any foul play, he having sworn tnat the attend ants beat the man with a piece of wood; that lie coaid hear Nall's cries and hear the sounds of the heavy blows, evidently given with a piece of plank. To-night Coroner Jordan made ptibiic the evidence given at the inquest Dr. Turner, county physician of Chatham, who held two autopsies, said ha found extensive braises on Nall's hips, caused by repeated blows; a scalp woood on the side of the head two inches long, made with some blunt instrument, end up iciwvtw vi wc uhit irons inc ■calp a bum of coagulated blood down the beck of the ■kail. Inside tbe skull was • blood doc from the lop nearly to the base, canting death. Tbe council of State met in special scmioii tbit evening to consider matters growing oat of the death of Nall at the State Hospital. Supt. McKee, of tbe hospital; was present. It was decided to call s meeting of tbe hospital trustees next Wednes day^ make a thorough invest! A Raleigh special of the 7th says tbe latest senMtion there is the arrest and placing in Jail of the four attendants at the hospital for tbe Ismbc who arc charged with cruelty which re sulted in the death of Charles Nall, tbe thirty year old patient from Chatham county, three weeks ago. As has been started a fanner gave tbe first knowl edge of tbe affair, having wit nessed the running away of tbe man, the pursuit by the attend ants. tbe capture and what he stated was the beating of Nall with a plash. The embalmer who bandied the body said there were no bruises uppn it;, that there was s cut on the side of the bead and that a knot ovor one eye had been there a long time. The superintendent of the hospital stated that no un due violence was used and -that death was das to over-exertion on a very hot day. On the other tend it is alleged that when the bead of Nall was shaved, at tbe post mortem, a number of bruises ware found, notably one at the base of tbe skull, and that the rear of the body was vary badly bruised. Tbe four attendants are in jail and have nothing.to say. Super intendent McKee will be asked to give an explanation of hit conduct in the matter, and tlx whole affair will be thoroughly investigated. . Bf FAYS WSTTAX.
