r I -X 9 __ ? iomun's n. ? % Cotton Growers Called to Meet in Convention in Columbia. SALUDA ANXIOUS FOR A R. R. A Terrible Death?A Cottons Man's View?Turner's "El Dorado"? Iterferes With Commerce. President Wilborn.of the State Farm ers' Alliance, has issued a call which means the inauguration of a movement towards securing a convention of the cotton growers of the Southern States for the purpose of taking definite action in regard to the planting of next year's crop. The call provides for the holding of a State convention in Columbia during the State fair. The following is the call for the State convention of cotton growers for fair week: As president of the Farmers' State Alliance organization of this State, I have been requested by numbers of the representative members of the organization to take the initiative in calling a meeting of the farmers of the Southern States, with a view of suggesting some action in the future, looking to the regulation of the acreage of cotton, also to discuss the plans and methods of marketing the cotton crop so that the producers of this great staple shall receive the real value of the crop, and not be forced to sacrifice the crop by uufair combinations, together with the manipulations of the gambling cotton exchanges of the conn try, aided by the unjust accumulation of all the money of the country at one center at the principle time of the j*ear when our cotton is going into market. With these objects in vievi desire to request the cotton growers of the various counties in this State to meet on s&lesday in November and select one or more delegates to represent them at a meeting to be held in the city of Columbia on Wednesday night of fair week for the purpose of discussing the matters mentioned above. J. |C. Wiujorx, President Farmers' Alliance of S. C. Ollie Watts, with his wife and five children, were among the emigrants who left Newberry for Lishop Turner's "El Dorado," in the Republic of Liberia. V. atts bad $"J00 when he left, and after reaching Liberia he soon found that his industry would not bring the expected returns. He sent his wife back in June, 18Jti, as he did not have money enough to pay his own passage and his children to America. But about two months ago he was among a party who worked their way as far as Loudon, whence he sent an appeal to his old employer, in Newberry. Mr. J. C. Puree 11 advanced $3oO to him, and Watts and his children reacbe I Newberry on the 10th instant, and like others who have come back they feel fortunate and grateful. Their white friends have only done what others did for those colored people who went from Newberry to Liberia thirty years ago, and their ex perienee should have been a lesson tn them. <?> At the Batesville' cotton mill in Greenville,- a young man, Putnam v Baker, met a horrible death. He was standing upon a speeding machine, reachiug up to throw a belt on a pulley. His father, John F. Baker, and his unt, Mrs. Mary P. Gridlev, were watching him. Suddenly the sleeve of his shirt was wrapped around the revolving shaft, and in the attempt to disengage himself he thrust one arm through the pulley. In an instarthis body was whirled over and over, striking the ceiling like the ticking of a watch. When the machiuery was stopped it was found that his arms had been torn away from the body and the legs broken in several places. The face was not mutilated, there being only one slight cut on the chin. ? The people of Saluda arc anxious for a railroad, and some of the business men have been in correspondence with parties in Charleston very much interested in the project of the Carolina Midland, which is very much encouraging. This road wili not only open up a section of country, whose trade all goes elsewhere than to Charleston, but will give to Charleston unsurpassed freight rates and facilities from the Sreat Northwest, by her connection irect wit the Seaboard Air Line system at Greenwood. A special to the Register from Pickens says: "Rev. J. L. Burdine, a Baptist min'ster, living in the upper part of this county, shot hi3 wife through the head, killing her instantly, and themshot himself through the head. At last accounts he was still living, but unconscious. The weapon used was a 38-caIibre Smith & Wesson pistol. The cook was the only witness of the tragedy. Bnrdine had been on a big protracted drunken spree. The State authorities have recently attacked small shipmets of liqnor, mam-1 festly for personal use, on the ground that a C. O. D. shipment is equivalent to a sale in this State. Keys & Co., oi North Carolina, have been shipping considerable liqnor into the State, aDd it appears that the bill was attached to each of the shipments, and the State holds that all C. O. D. shipments by express are in violation of Judge SimoDt ton's decisions, because such shipments are virtuully sales in the State. On account of fire in the Spartanburg mill cotton warehouses GOO bales of cotton were damaged by fire and water. Loss about 3^,000 to 310,000. Insurod. The British Medical Journal, in a recent issue, sounds an alarm concerning the rapid spread of the cocaine habit in England, where it threatens to become the third scourge of humanity, alcohol and morphine being the first and second. All ranks of society are declared to be crowded with its victims?both men and women? . many of whom are literary people, who take cocaine to stimulate their imagination. The Journal advises that most stringent measures be adopted to eradicate this blighting vice. NrftHM tti-.,"Vy: V.. ~Xs.jDiC . A FKOKITABLE CROP. Celery, If Raised Properly, Is a Better Money Crop Than Cotton. I There is no doubt of the fact that to raise celery successfully is a very diffi| cult matter, and for this reason very few people undertake it. Several years ago Mr. C. H. Smith, who lives near I ^ t Yorkville, concluded to experiment , with this vegetable, which is held in ! such high esteem by connoisseurs, and which commands such fabulous prices ! ou the market, and has each succeeding year increased the size of his patch, { as well as improved the qnality of his , prouuct, UUl.il uu? 1_U 19 laujiiug au mi tide that is said to be equal in quality and flavor to tho famous Kalamazoo product. The following paragraph taken from the local columns of the York villa Euquirer, should iuterest some of the more progressive farmers of South Carolina, who are of the opinion that the sole dependence of the Southern i agriculturists for a "money crop" is cotton: "Mr. C. H. Smith, who lives five miles south of Y'orkTille, and who for several years past has been experimenting with celery raising, this year promises to outdo all previous records. At ! first he attempted onh- a small patch and met with fairly good success?just ; success enough to encourage him to try ! again, which he did on a somewhat larger, though still rather small scale, j Then he tried it again and again, each time planting a little more and getting more experience. This year he has about au acre, which, in celery, is a fairly good sized patch. The land has been prepared with a great deal of care and expense. Previous experience had taugli thai when the plant needs water, for instance, water it must have, and with a dam and system of ditches the entire patch can be irrigated at will. As ' the result, the present crop is giving forth splendid promise. On the greater 1 part of the acre the stand is perfect, and on the balance it is fairly good. Taken as a whole, the acre is calculated to fill the heart oi any experienced celery rai.-er with joy. Heretofore Mr. Smith ; has only tried to dispose oi his crop in the surrounding local markets?York ville, llock Hill and Chester?where he has generally found ready sale for all , the celery he has been able to raise. ; Jiut this year, probably, he will be at: tempted, after fully supplying the local : demand, to make shipments to the comJ mission men in some of the larger cities. I An acre of laud is reckoned as a small j thing generally; but at a low estimate Mr. Smith has on his cere the value of not less thau ten bales of cotton." PALMK rro PUISTEKS. Steps are being taken to incorporate the town of Conway, in Horry county. The murderer of roiiceman Wolfe, at \ Orangeburg, has been captured and | taken to Columbia for Bafe keeping, as it was not safe for him to remain in J Orangeburg jail, as public sentiment | was in favor of lynching him. j Mr. Jas. Norton has received his cer- j i tificate of election from the State board ; I canvassers as member of Congress from ' j the Sixth district to fill the uuexpired | ' term of Senator McLaurin. The board ; : also declared Mr. J. P. McNeill elected probate judge of Florence county. ! The State historian has received from ; | Miss LydiaV. McCreerv, of Hllenton, a j ; copy of the roll cf the company organ- J ized at the beginning of the late war in , j Barnwell county. This lady's brother . : was afterwards Col. C. W. McCreery, | J who war, killed around Petersberg, Ya. ! . She found the original roll among some ' ' old family papers. The historian hopes j ! that a'l who come across such rolls will j send them to bim. i \ cotton man of wide experience, in ' ' talking to a representative of the Co- ! | lumbia State about the continued low j j price of cotton, said: "Looking at all the figures, pro and con., and while | speculation mat* put January contracts in Xew York dowu to 5i centB, cotton is too low and will be higher before spring. The moral of this is: 'Mills bny your year's supply' and 'farmers hold if you can.' At the same time the ' farmer should not be lead by an adj ranee in prices in the spring to plant ! as many acres in cotton as he did last ! spring." HORSEWHIPPED BY A GIRL. After the Act Was Accomplished She Exclaimed, ".Now Tell Wha: You Know." At Charleston Mr. Willie Brugemann ! was horsewhipped by pretty little Miss j Lula Harrington. A dance was given at Capers hail, on Church street, in j honor of Miss Annie Thayer by Mr. I Bertage. Quite a jolly party of young! people assembled and among the party j was Miss Lula Harrington, her sister < and Mr. Willie Brugemann. The dance f was passing oil" smoothly and nothing] hud taken place to apprise one of what j was to come. Suddenly Mr. Brugemaun j I was approached bv Miss Harrington ' i who drew from under her cloak a lash ' I and began whipping the gentleman vigorously. Mr. Brugemann tried to get out of the hall but was intercepted by a number of young men, Miss Harrington all the while plying her lash and exclaiming, "Now tell what you know." Miss Harrington accused Mr. Brugemann of talking about ber sister, to whom be bad been engaged, in a manner she would net allow, and to repair the injury, publicly horsewhipped him. --Columbia Register. A PERJURY CASE. The Jury In the Aehurst Case, at Aiken, Couldn't Agree. Last week, at Aiken, in the Court oj General Sessions, the case of the State \ vs. J. W. Aehurst was called. This , case is a prosecution for perjury arising out of the complication of the defunct ; Aiken County Loan and Savings Bank. | Lver since this bank suspended busi-! ness in 1894 its a flairs have been the : subject of litigation before both State j and United States courts. The trial j which came before this session was ! against the ex-cashier for an alleged oath in 1893 as to the bank's condition, j The case was fought with great earnest by opposing counsel, Mr. M. B.Wood-j ward representing the State and Hen-1 derson Bros, the defence. Ihe trial of , the case consumed two days. After a deliberation of four hours the jury an- j nounced their inability* to agree, where upon a mistrial was ordered. i : ft kiSSnL. .Vft ? - :* . i LOVE OF ADVENTURE, NOTGOLD Wealthy Younu Chicago Widow Has I Gone to Alaska Gold Fields.

In Egypt the i rose is depicted on a number of very j early monuments, believed to data; from 3,000 to 3,500 years R C., and in the tomb of an Egyptian prince;*, disinterred a year ago. In Southern Egypt several hermetically sealed vials were found, which, when opened, contained genuine attar roses, so that the mod | ern claims for the discovery of this delicious perfume are vain.

Why is it that the dollar rings louder than the church bell? The time saved from the table by hurried eating Is lost In bed. There isn't room to draw a line between sympathy and succor. The devil is never torr busy to rock the cradle of a sleeping saint. Only love for the drunkard makes j righteous hatred of the saloon. Jesus Christ never tri d to cram the- . oiogy down an empty stomach. A city's righteous men do more to preserve Its peace titan its police. Tiie congregation needs to stick as closely to the text as the preacher. Don't talk about a "free salvation", when you mean a cheap salvation. Many a man will fight for his creed, < who has no blood to shed for Christ. If we wlU do all the will of God we know, we will soon know more to do. j The man who would lead otficrs, i must have the courage to step ofi" alone, j Whenever you find an empty whisky ! bottle, you may expect to find a full man. God was light to the children of Is- ! rael, but a lightning stroke to the i Egyptians. The greatest danger in the "dangerous classes," is the danger of classifying men at all. It is impossible for any man to live j I or unrisi, wimoui ursi uuuttiujj iuat Christ died for him. Selfishness is a Dead Sea into which ! all the sweetness poured turns bitter for want of an outlet. When Jesus said, "Let your light so J shine," he was talking to those who had light that did shine. More irreligious persons would at-1 tend preaching, if more of the preach- I lag was aimed at them. Unregenerate man is a powder maga- i zine with passion and appetite enough , to wreck him, if ignited. A roan with splendid abilities that ' are not consecrated to God, is like a ?rs*-class fiddle unstrung. People who don't believe in revivals of religion, can't consistently believe in washday or house-cleaning. I It is a waste of breath for the mother to warn her boys against the cigarette while their father is puffing away at a j pipe. A high-priced choir, may decoy sin- j ners to the church, but the preacher j who depends on such things never bags the game. I Some people ought, like spring doors, j to have "pull" or "push" painted on !1 them, for when you go at them they fly in your face. I ??? ! It Stood the Test.
