Goldman is a young man about twenty-two years of age, and un-I i married. Seymour is aged about fifty-five years. and has a family. I Goldman was cut twice in the back and his wounds are very serious. It is thought Aiat his recovery is i doubtful. and he has given out an ante-mortem statement. The difficulty occurred in the: spinning room of the Mollohon mill. Goldman says that Seymour walked in and reached around a young lady who was between him and Goldman and cut Goldman in the back. just above the kidney's. and inflicted another wound in Goldman's left elbow.

Shcriff .\I. .\l. 1fd has rceiv C( the following letter which is eli explanatory: Dear Sir:-In conjunction withl the historian of the archives of the states of Mississippi an(d Alabama. I am trying to write up the life of of Judge Obediah Jones, who in early manhood was in South Car olina, and we have traced him to Newherry county. The captain in Marshall's brigade in 1863 say they camped in a woodslot tw miles from Yewberry court liousc and at a spring in this woodsl' . looked up and saw\ on a sugar tree the name. Obediah Jones. with the d .nate t whiCh he has forgonu.t andl he was surprised and gave an exclamation. An old man stanl ing there observed it ana sa!(i. "what do you know of him ?"' and from th4t conversation many cour tesies were shown the company. The owner of this lot was Tohn Hare, an old man. We wish to lo cate the son and daughter of this John Hare. The daughter was mar ried, the son lost one limb in the army of Virginia. Ve wish to get the address of any of their descend ants or the address of anybody in Newberry county. who might have heard or known anything of this Obediah Jones. He was a lawyer and in partnership with Judge Knight in the years between 1795 and i8oo; he moved to Oglethorpe county, Georgia: he held many prominent positions and was wor thy the government preserving his picture in the library of congress. Anv little research about that pe riod may disclose something of in terest. Is there a record of a man in that county by the name of Judge Knight? I would like the address of some of his descendants. I hope on ac count Qf the historical interest and being a South Carolina son, yon will give me y-our assistance. Very respectfully. Mrs. Frederick C. Jones. Beulah, Miss. January 4. 1906. The Place of Bibical Criticism. Zion's Herald.. Biblical criticism. which is now the bogy to so many; when properly defined, is simply a thorough study of the Bible, unbiased investiga tion into its facts. That study will. and should, go on without fear or favor. Only very timid or very ig norant souls will get frightened about it, and imagine that dire dis aster impendls because there has to be an alteration in some purely hu man dogmas to which they have be come accustomed. They wvill yet see, we trust, that the gains from the movement are going to be very far greater than the losses: that we are to have as the result a very much stronger and better book than before; more human and hence more divine, more natural and hence more supernatural. A return on the part of the great body of ed ucated men who have lpassedl through our higher institutions of learning to the 0old methods andl way of looking at the Bible is abso lutely imfpossile. One might as well ask themr to go back to Ptol emaic system of astronomy. They are extremelv unwise who attemp t to force out of the church this body of educated young men. This at tempt must be resisted. There is room in the church for both parties if they will but consent to live and let live. think and.let think. Why not? Let neither try to oust the other. Christ. we believe. wvill de fend the one attacked, as in the case of Mary and Martha. NOTICE-Farmers: Blacksmith and Wheelwright shops are still be ing operated by B. F. Neely and Morgan.

The year's growth, in various parts of Swaizelani proves that the climate and soil are congenial and that the plant will do well in most parts of the couPtry, an(d once cheap transportation is e available there will be every en couragement for the establishment of a cotton plantation on a co!nmer cial scale. Curious as it may seem, Gibeat Britain sent to the United Stat' last year cotton goods aggregating nearly $i5,ooo,ooo. Its exports of cotton goods to all parts of the world went up to $403,919 includ ing yarns worth $43,579,988. Of imports into Great Britain, cotton leads with $i96,8i9,878, fol lowed by oxen and bulls, $34,826,- V 61o, and bacon, $30,216,143. In short, foods and the raw materials of commerce make up about three fourths of all the commodities that go into Great Britain from the U nited Sfates.
