'* Every Democrat should look up his registration certificate and tax receipts and be prepared to vote in the general election next Tuesday. Remember you took an oath to support the nominees of the party, and a man who fails to vote is just as culpable in our opinion as one who supports an independent ticket. We can see hn difference between failing to support the ticket by not voting and voting against it, no matter if there is no opposition. ' Maj. J. C. Hemphill, editor of the News and Courier, is to be congratulated on the able fight he is making in regard to the election of trustees for the New York Life and the Mutual Life Insurance companies, and he deserves the hearty thanks of policy holders in these companies. The editor of this newspaper is so unfortunate as to have a policy in 'i, . * the Mutual, and we sent on ouij ballot last week to Richard Olney, chairman of the policyholders committee. SWe voted for the united committees' ticket, too. The company sent us a ballot with all names stricken out except those of the administration ticket. Short News Paragraphs. George Kenny, one of the negroes who murdered H. G. Stello, guard on the Charleston county chain gang a few months ago, was tried recently and sentenced to be hanged on the 16th day of November. Dr. Ethan W. Foster, a young dentist of Union, shot himself just above the heart with a pistol in a hardware store in that city last Monday afternoon. He had gone in the store to make some purchases and he says his pistol went off accidentally. He is seriously but not fatally wounded, and is getting along as well as could | . i be expected. In Florence last Friday afternoon :a young white man named Gordon was wounded in the face by a stray shot from a 22-calibre rifle. He was sitting on the back steps of his father's residence at the time. The bullet struck him in the left check and went through his nose, coming out on the opposite side of his face. Another case no doubt of the careless handling of firearms by small boys. # Prof. W. F. Moncreif, of Centenary college, Jackson, La., and Rev. C. C. Miller, the president, had a fight in faculty meeting on Satur " i ji :/? day, the president using a cnair ana the professor a knife, stabbing the president six times, causing injuries that may prove fatal. Prof. Moncrief was for several years superintendent] of the city schools of Anderson, S. C., and afterwards professor in Winthrop college. On account of his health, Rev. Louis J. Bristow will retire from the % Baptist Press, and will move to . a Anderson county, in the foot hills. He has severe throat trouble, and his physician advises an outdoor life. * . - Mr. Bristow will preach twice a month to a Baptist church in that county. The Press will be moved to Union, Rev. L. M. Rice of that city having bought an interest, and it will be published there in future by . Revs. V. I. Masters and L. M. Rice. Mr. Bristow's many friends hope he will soon regain his health. > Hog Eats Hands of Little Child. Gaffney, October 29.?A little child of Mr. and Mrs. Elisha Scruggs, while lying in bed this afternoon, had both hands and arms eaten and! lacerated by a vicious hog, which, in some manner, managed to get into the bed where the child was lying. Dr. Allen, who has just returned from the Scruggs home, says that it is probable that the child will lose both hands. The child was alone in the house at the time, the parents being out looking after something about the lot. The child was a boy about two years of age. The Scruggs live something like twelve miles from Gaffney. s SHOT BY GAMBLER. Aged White Man Perhaps Fatally Wounded by a Negro. Greenville, Oct. 29.?This morning, seven miles from here, an aged white man named Hudson was shot in the head and perhaps fatally wounded by a negro gambler, whose name is given as Wright. Wright and companions were eugaged in a noisy game near Mr. Hudson's home. The latter went to the place where the game was in progress, and when he insisted that the disturbance cease, he was shot. Details of the affair are meagre. Wright is in jail here. Taken as directed, it becomes the greatest curative agent for relief of suffering humanity ever devised. Such is Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea. 3oc, tea or tablets. H. F. Hoover. Withdrawn From Circulation. A lawsuit down at Yorkville has unearthed the fact that there has been in the possession of Miss Mary Scott at the home place of the late J. R. Scott, a box containing $3,000 in cash for a quarter of a century. Miss Scott gave up the box after legal proceedings were instituted, and she thought she had to do so. It had been withdrawn from circulation. This money has been a source of great annoyance to Miss Scott and has not done its part in bringing the necessities of life to needy men and women.?Gastonia News. FAMOUS STRIKE BREAKERS.

Southern cotton mills are now consuming more cotton per year than is consumed in all other mills of the United States. This fact is brought out by the report of the bureau of statistics of the department of commerce of the United States. For the crop year which ended on August 31 purchase of cotton by Southern mills amounted to 2,374,235 bales against 2,349,478 bales taken by the mills in > other sections. This is -the second year in succession that the South has held supremacy in cotton manufacturing, for in the year ending August 31,1905, the Southern mills consumed 2,140,151 bales and those of other sections 2,138,839 bales. These figures are of great significance when taken in connection with the statistics published by the census . office which show that during 1900 to 1905 four times as much capital was invested in manufacturing establishments in the South as New England. They show that the South is rapidly becoming one of the most important manufacturing centres of the country and has already become -c?-1-* in tKo lonH in cot lining csiauiiou^u m MIV ... ton manufacturing. Jamestown Exposition Notes. The State buildings at the Jamestown Exposition will all front upon Hampton Roads and the naval and , marine displays may be seen from their verandas and balconies. From the water front the groups of State buildings make a beautiful picture and the people from the States which have buildings at the exposition will like to spend much time in their spacious halls .and in their shady verandas. A reproduction of the world famous battle between the Monitor and the Merrimac will be an attraction at the Jamestown Exposition, that will interest all visitors. It will be made just off the exposition grounds : where the battle was fought. A forestry exhibit of immense interest will be an attractive feature of the Jamestown Exposition, for it will pmhra^e the entire United States and woods and woodcraft will be expected in this exhibit that have never been known before. This exhibit will be an education in itself. An immense collection of Indian relics covering- three centuries will be one of the government exhibits at the Jamestown Exposition. Mrs. E. S. Chapin, the Northern white woman who was assaulted by the negro, Isaac Knight, has left Aiken at the request of representative citizens. She championed the cause of social equality between the negroes and whites and laid herself liable to the fate she suffered by keeping the negro in her house, and after his execution there was strong feeling against her, especially as she signed a petition asking that his sentence be commuted to life imprisonment. To avoid trouble, leading citizens advised her that it would be wisest to leave, which she did at once.
