Rock Hill, March 9.?The bad weather
is becoming a serious matter with the farmers,
and unless we can have some March
winds within the next few days to dry the
lauds, .there is, to say the least, a bad outlook
for planting.
Alex. Biggers, the victim of the unloaded
pistol, on Mr. John Ratterree's place a few
days ago, died last Friday. An inquest was
held by Trial Justice Waters and the jury
returned a verdict of accidental homicide.
The measles in this section are not so bad
as they have been and the number of cases is
decreasing.
Sheriff Crawford, through his deputy,
Maior T. C. Beckham, has uttached the
slock of drugs of W. H. Roumillat for the
benefit of creditors.
Mr. James A. Peterkin had an exhibition
on Main street, last Saturday, of one of the
reapers he proposes to manufacture at this
place. All who saw the machine pronounce
themselves as highly pleased with it.
The stockholders of the Standard mills
held their annual meeting on Tuesday evening
of last week. The old board of directors
was re-elected, and the directors re-elected
Mr. John R. Londo^, president, and Mr. W.
M. Frew, secretary and treasurer. The report
Of the president shows a prosperous condition,
and he was accorded a vote of thanks
for his able management.
The I. O. G. T. at this place is in a
flourishing condition. The order now has
more than a hundred members and more are
being added at each meeting.
Rev. J. H. Thomwell will repeat the
memorial sermon delivered by him at Ebenezer
church, last Sunday, on the life of Rev.
James 8. White, in the First Presbyterian
church at this place, next Sunday,
Mr. Ed. Robinson has invented a new
method of adjusting steel rails to railroad
tracks. Railroad men pronounce it a success.
Mr. Robinson has applied for a patent.
Electric lights were placed in the Episcopal
chpMh to-day. hal.

' Some Hard Questions to Answer?Kan Away
With the Wagon?Re-committed to JailImprovements
on the Three C's?Other
Matters.
Correspondence of The Yorkville Enquirer.
3hakon, March 9.-?Did you ever see such
weather? When do you think it will clear
off? Do you reckon we will ever get to
plow any more ? Have you got your guano
hauled yet f These and many other like ex
pressions are to be heard on all sides now.
The outlook is certainly very gloomy at
present, but in my opinion, in two months
from now, we will hardly know it rained at
all. Under the circumstances I think the
best course to pursue will be to cultivate
less ground and lay on more manure.
The loads are in such condition that the
farmers are storing their fertilizers and are
waiting for dry weather before hauling them
home.
Mr. John M. Russell had a narrow escape
from what might have been a serious injury
last Friday afternoon. He was eugaged in
? hauling guano from a car to a warehouse,
and the mules suddenly becoming frightened
at a dog, ran away. Mr. Russell was thrown
out of the wagon at the start and fortunate^
escaped without injury. The mules ran on
down the road at full speed as far as Woodlawn
church, where the wagon became
hooked to a tree. The wagon was considerably
smashed, but beyond that there was no
serious damage.
Will Berry, alias Anderson, who is supposed
to know something about the Plexico
burglary, and who was let out of jail on
bond, was re-committed last week.
It is renorted here that there is to be a big
improvment in the Three C's railroad soon.
The rolling stock is to be supplemented with
palace cars and sleepers, and the working
force is to be increased to such an extent as
will *admit of the roadbed's being put in
first-class condition at once.
Mr. R. R. Plexico has bought the house
and lot recently vacated by his brother, Joseph
'M. Plexico. - N
Dr. Ross will preach at Edgmoor next
Sabbath.
Communion services will be held in the
Presbyterian church at this place next Sunday
by Rev. C. Fraser. Preaching will be
commenced on Saturday. J.

LETTER FROM UNION COUNTY.
Suuday-school Convention?Dire Deatructlon
of the Dogs?Circuit Court?No Need to

Matters.
Correspondence of the Yorkvllle Enquirer.
Etta Jane, March 9.?Our North Pacolet
Sunday-school convention will meet with
Mesopotamia M. E. church on the fifth Sabbath
of this month, 29th instant.
Considerable ado has been made about a
deficiency in the free school funds for this
county, amounting to about $1,400. Treasurer
Scott oomes out in a card in last week's
Times and * requests the public to withhold
their verdict until the matter is definitely
known. "All's well that ends well."
The past week has been unprecedentedly
wet. Rain has been falling continuously for
thirty-six hours, and still continues. The
rivers and creeks are high and still rising.
Farm work is entirely suspended, the roads
impassable, and everybody in low spirits.
But few oats have been sown, and some complaint
is made that those sown late in January
or early in February are dead?"soured
in the sprout."
A peculiar and fatal malady seems to be
prevailing among the dogs of this community?especially
the young ones. They swell
at the throat and different parts of the body,
refuse to eat, and apparently die from pure
inanition. "Dr." Sam Lee has been treating
some of them with castor oil, but to no good
effect. There are no hydrophobia symptoms
exhibited with the disease, and the generally
accepted idea is that they are "pizened."
The court is still in session at Union. Hon.
I. D. Witherspoon is the judge. Our people
speak well of him as a discreet, impartial
and upright officer and gentleman. His rulings
are in strict conformity with law and
justice. The presentment of the grand jury
was especially gratifying to our tax-payers-*?
that there is a probability of getting out of
debt by the time another tax is collected.
The judge and grand jury are both "hard
down" on the pernicious practice of carrying
concealed weapons. This class of offenders
w-UNget but cold comfort from him.
Rev. G. S. Robinson will preach at Salem
next Sabbath, 15th instant, at 11.30 a. m.
No definite arrangements have as yet been
made by our Alliance farmers about their
guano. Some have concluded to use none ;
' others will increase the amount beyond that
of former years. Some have made their
purchases, but are unable to haul it until the
roads dry off somewhat.
The people sf this township (Gowdeysville)
have (or will) request the county commissioners
to reftise the extension of the time as
well as the issuing of the township bonds to
the railroad company to finish up its work
along this part of the line. They think they
have been euchred enough already. Issuing
the bonds and extending the time will
necessarily drag them into court to show
that the building of the road is not in strict
conformity to the expressed will of the people
at the ballot box. Taking everything
into consideration, we see no prospect of
completing the road or settling this difficulty
in the near future.
Some people pretend that they can't see
where our Hickory Grove friends are to get
the money to start a fuctory in their town.
I do. They have already got it, and they
have something still better?pluck and energy
! So go ahead, gentlemen. sioma.

Correspondence of The YorkviUe Enquirer.
Blacksburg, March 10?Our share of the
rain came at last, and for nearly three days
and nights (Friday, Saturday and Sunday)
there was a steady pour. Of course the
principal streams are over the lowlands, but
there is not much damage apprehended.
The sun showed his welcome face yesterday
and continues to-day to shed his warm,
cheerfhl beams, but I am afraid to speak for
to-morrow, from our recent experience, and
especially as Mr. Hicks, who has gained for
himself such renown as a weather prophet,
and who pictures himself as dwelling among
the stars and holding communion with the
planets by means of an electric current, gives
a gloomy prediction for this month, and we
are not to expect any real good gardening
or planting weather until the first of April.
Messrs. A. B. Crosby and W. A. Jackins
are home on a brief visit from railroad work
in Georgia.
Maj. J. G. Rathburne of Hartford, Conn.,
accompanied by two other capitalists from
the same city, Messrs. Blanchard and Philbrick,
arrived here last week and are the |
guests of Maj. Jones. Miy. Rathburne has j
already contributed to the growth and prosperity
of our town, being largely interested
in the new and elegant hotel, Cherokee Inn,
and the BlacksbuVg Land and Improvement
company, and to our citizens his face is becoming
familiar and his visits always welcome.
Mr. Albert Bettis, a prominent member of
the Holly Grove sub-Alliance, recently killed
a pig seven months and ten days old that
weighed 214 pounds net,
Mr. Rufus Roberts, a prominent citizen of
Cleveland county, N. C., and his estimable
wife, are visiting their son, Chas. Roberts,
Esq., editor of The Blacksburg News.
M^jor Jones left here last night in a special
car for Camden, for the purj>08e of bringing

an article from The State, of February' 27th,
which says: "Mr. W. A. Sanders, a member
of the Chester bar, has suddenly lost possession
of his faculties, and is at present in
an insane condition," &c. This report is
without foundation other than the fuct that
Mr. Sanders has been quite ill at the home
of his brother, Mr. John Sanders, some miles
in the country, since the death of his wife,
more than a month ago. Mr. Sanders returned
to town yesterday fully recovered
from his illness, and is to day busily engaged
in preparing his cases for the March term of
court that convenes here on the 16th instant.
Kindly make this correction and oblige,

Interview Your Neighbor.
An Illinois paper, in speaking of the Disk
Harrow, says: "A fool can run it successfully ;
a cripple, with both legs and one arm gone, can
do more and better work with it than a twolegged
and two-armed giant can in the old way."
We have never seen the above test made, but wo
are certain that one able bodied man with two
mules and n No. 7 Corbin Harrow, can put in as
many oats in a day as live men and five mules
can by the old way,* and we are nlso certain
that the oats put in with the harrow will be left
in letter condition than those put in with a plow.
There is no doubt that the Corbin Disk Harrow
is the best farming implement in the world;
and, for the reason that it will do more kinds of
work and better work than any other implement,
and because it is so simple in construction that
it can be operated as successfully by a twelveyear-old
boy as by a grown man.
From time to time during the past eighteen
months we have published testimonials from
well known and successful farmers who are using
Corbin Harrows, and now for the information of
those who may prefer verbal testimony, we give
below a list of farmers who are using the Harrow,
and invite any who may bo interested in the
matter to interview as many of them as may be
convenient, and ascertain whether or not the
Harrow is all that is claimed for it. (.let your
disinterested neighbors' oral testimony. Here

MR. E. B. HARPER, president of the com- j

Jones and Henry Krouse, who have olllces in the j
Kimball House, are managers for this Associa- i
tion for Atlanta and vicinity.
In resjionse to an inquiry made by a reporter i
of Tho Constitution, President Harper stated i
that the secret of the j*reat success of the Mutual i
Reserve was because from its foundation it had
been the foe of monopolies, tho friend of the i
people, tho protector of the widows and orphans,
and had furnished life insurance from the day of
its organization, a period of ton years, at less than 1
one-half tho rates charged by the great life in- i
sunince monopolies of tlie United States and the
Old World, and to show its great prosperity, i
Prcsidont Harper handed to our reporter a disSutcli

DEATH OF DR N. J. BUSSEY.
Telegraphic Dispatches have Announed
T1IK W5ATH ur u.i r. wr uiiwuuin ..
Famous Citizens.
Dr. Bussey was well known throughout the
State as one of her ablest financiers and most
prudent and successful business men. He was
for many years Presidont of the Eagle and Phoenix
Manufacturing Company of Columbus, and
by his wisdom and sagacity, tine judgment and
valuable experience, did much to make these
mills among the most successful and best paying
in the South.
In an interview with one of the reporters of The
Constitution, Mr. E. B. Harper, President of the
Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association, called
the attention of the reporter to the sudden death
of this popular citizen, and referred to a recent
letter which the Association had received from
Dr. Bussey, which wo with pleasure present to
our readers. Dr. Bussey, in this letter, in speaking
of the Mutual Reserve Fund Lifo Association,
said :
"It has cut out the weak features and combined
the safest and soundest ideas and strongest points
gathered from the past history of life insurance.
It has given to the world a new system, which
time and experience have proven to lie eminently
safe and successful, and based upon sound
and correct principles. The Mutual Reserve
Fund Life Association is the largest Natural
Premium Company in the world, and is the vigorous
and successful leader of this great reform
movement in life insurance.
"I carry a policy," says Dr. Bussey in this letter,
"of $10,000, my son $10,000 and my wife $5,000,
in this company. The Mutnal Reserve has been
attacked, abused and slandered so persistently
by its natural enemies and competitors?the Old
Line high-rate, level-premium companies?that
I wished to thoroughly investigate lor myself as
to its safety, which I did to my entire satisfaction.
I am personally well acquainted with its
officers, and I do not think the affairs of the association
could be in the hands of a safer or more
honorable sot of men. The plan of the association
speaks for itself, and furnishes as sound,
safe insurance as any of all the Old Lino, highrate
companies at less than half the cost. I
would not, said the doctor, in conclusion, exchange
my policies in the Mutual Reserve Fund
Life Association for those of any other company,
and I most heartily recommend it to all my
friends as the very nest insurance for the least
outlay of money."
How littlo diu Dr. Bussey think, when writing
this letter to tho officers of the Mutual Reserve
Fund Life Association, that so soon would the
claim under his policy of insurance be presented
?n,M.,nn* Hut wn imntrinn that the
Ml lliriu 1U1 |/njiuuiib. J'UV uw
words expressed and the wisdom displayed by
I)r. Bussey in selecting the Mutual Reserve Fund
Life Association will he fully sustained when the
Association shall pay to his widow the $10,000 referred
to in this letter, and we take it for granted
that his wife will iind that the $10,000 which Hhe
will receive from the Mutual Reserve Association
will ho just sis good and will go just as far as
the like sum, should she huve received it from
any other life insurance company, no matter if
such life insurance company had charged her
husband, I)r. Bussey, twice the rateschurged by
the Mutual Reserve Association.
In other words, 810,000 in cash to Mrs. Bussey
at this time is worth just twice as much as $5,000
from any other life insurance company which
would liavo cost the same amount ot premiums.
In this connection, President Harper, before
leaving for New York, placed in the hands of the
reporter of the Constitution the following indorsements
and letters of commendation from
two other leading citizens of the city of Atlanta.
These gentlemen are known throughout the
State for their ability in tinauces and for their
prudenco in business matters, and we heartily
commend to the readers of The Constitution the
letters which we present from Mr. George Winship,
presidentot the Winship Machine Co., and
Mr. W. B. Miles, president or the Atlanta Bridge
and Axle Co.:
Atlanta, Ga., October 30,1800.
T. II. JONES, general Manauek
.Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association.
Dear Sir: I take pleasure In saying that I hold a
policy for ?30,000 in the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association
of New York. I took It after a careful comiiarlson
with the plans and rutes of other leading life
Insurance companies. I made a thorough and satisfactory
examination of the financial standing of the
company, the character of Its management, and its
promptness In paving all Just claims, und found it all
I could desire. It gives me more than double the
amount of Insurance I could get In the "Old Line"
companies for the same money, and I consider it as
prompt, reliable and trustworthy as any other company.
Its safety and security I regard as beyond question;
and I think there are few men who would not place
their Insurance In the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association
if they properly understood Its plan. I cordially
commend the company to all who wish to secure
the best Insurunce and the largest amount of
insurunce for the least outlay of money.
Yours truly. GfcORGK WINSHIP,
President Winship Machine Co.

T. II. JONKS, (iKXKltAf. AOKNT
Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association.
J tKAit Sin : Fouryears hko I took out a f.j.000 policy
In the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association. Last
year I was so well pleased with the excellent inanaceinent
and wonderful growth and prosperity of the
company that I placed another policy for 810,000
through your agency; and I am now so well satisfied
with the security offered by the Mutual Reserve, Its
promptness In paying Its death losses, and Its reasonable
rates, that I have recently applied for 81.1,000
more, which is the maximum amount the compuny
will place on any one risk. I am so thoroughly convinced
of the soundness, safety, and honest prudent
munugeinent'of the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association,
that I would gladly place S')0,000 of Insurance
in that company If I could get It. I consider my
Insurance as safe, and my family as surely protected,
for the full amount of my policy with the Mutual
Reserve, as they would be with any other company
In the world. In the meantime, they are protected
with more than twice the amount of insurance that
the same money which I pay to the Mutual Reserve
would provide for them la the Did Line, Ix?vel l'remlum,
High Rate Life Insurance companies. If the
sound system, equitable plan, and liberal, plain jx>llcy
contract of the Mutual Reserve, with Its low rates,
were rightly understood by our people, 1 think there
would be few men who would not place all the insurance
they wanted, or could carry, in that reliable
company. Very truly yours, YV.H. MILKS,
President Atlanta Bridge and Axle Co.
We call the attention of our readers to the fact
that the Mutual Reserve Fund Association has
already paid to widows and orphans of deceased
members more than ten million dollars in cash.
That its payments in cash lbrlSflt) alone exceeded
$2,000,000, and has averaged $1,(1(10,000 of disbursements
for death claims every year since its organization.
It is also important lor our readers to
know that it has already saved to its members
by reduction of premiums, more than$2.">,<|00,0(X),
and it has already received applications for membership
from more than one hundred thousand
citizens of this country. It has a cash surplus
reserve and emergency fund of nearly three millions
of dollars.
The great Central Trust Co., in New York, is
the trustee of its reserve fund, which is held for
the exclusive use and benefit of its members.
The American Loan and Trust Co., in New York,
is trustee of its emergency fund, and through
said emergency fund, the association is able to
pay each and every death claim long before it is
due. Its lirst Vice-President is Mr. <>. I). Raidwin,
who was for many years the president of
the Fourth National Rank of New York, which
is known throughout the land, as having the
largest amount of deposits, and the largest volume
of exchanges of any bank in America. Its
second Vice-President is lion Henry J. Reinintitul,
who was for many years the insurance
commissioner of the State of < >hio, and who accepted
the olHee alter a personal investigation as
Insurance Commissioner.
The treasurer of the association is lion, .lolm
W. Vroomaii, who was president of the Herkimer
County National Rank, and who resigned
said position to accept the ollice of treasurer of
the Mutual Reserve Association. Mr. Vroomaii
is also present <>rand Master of Masons of the
Itirand Lodge of the State of New York, the
| largest grand body of the fraterity except that
over which the Prince of Wales presides for
(treat Rritain and Ireland. The association is
also honored by having as its ollicers many other
distinguished gentlemen known throughout the
length and breadth of our country for integrity
I ami financial ability.
It is to the credit of the Mutual Reserve Fund
j Association that it has firmly established its 1ms[
iuess in Kngland, Ireland, Scotland, Wales,
t France, Rclgitiiu, ( erinany, Sweden and Finlaud,
and in these foreign countries, although an
j American institution, it is fast becoming etpially
! popular as in its own home country.
i
' The above article from The Constitution shows
verv plainly how the Mutual Reserve stands in
(Jeorgia with those who have thoroughly investigated
its standing in the financial world, and
I its ability to carry out any contract it may make.

PALACE BAZAR.
The Place Where all Fashionable
People will Buy their
Stylish Spring Goods.
Though the chill blast of winter
has not yet spent its fury,
the spring time and the season
of flowers is near at hand; the
season when all is hopeftil and the youths of the
land are filled with sentiments of Bright anticipation;
the season when enthusiasm crowds
from our memories the hardships of a stormy
winter. This season, wo say, is near at hand,
and as "this is a record-breaking year," wo
propose to maintain our reputation as being the
largest and most reliable dealers
in millinery and dress goods,
clothing and fine shoes, in the
upper part of the state. We propose
to do it by merit, the quality of our goods
and prices.
You seldom find a lady or gentleman in this
section who is perfectly satisfied that they are
atylishly or fashonably dressed unless their garments
were either made or bought at LATI
MER'S PALACE BAZAR. This coming season
will demonstrate this feeling more than ever,
for we have cxorted ourselves to the utmost and
made preparations that we never dared niako
before. Our stock of SPRING CLOTHING,
a part of which lias already been received, was
bought by experienced buyers, with a view to
supplying our evergrowing fastidious trade, and
if ft don't satisfy the people, why then experience
is a myth and our judgment is a failure.
Rut, before we go too far or say too much
about our Spring Goods, wo desire to call your
attention to the fact that the bumble-bee has
not yet ventured out from his winter quarters,
nor has nature unwound the cocoon from the
butterfly, which is an evidence that Overcoats,
Blankets and Light-weight Winter Clothing
will yet be demanded. Remember that for Cash
wo will beat the best of prices.
