A heavy loss in cotton futures waSF the prime cause of his taking this fatal step. While he and his family were at the table, he ex used himself, went out into an outhouse in the yard, and there placed a pistol to his mouth, fired .md fell dead instantly. This step was fully premeditated and every precaution to prevent it had been taken by his family, who were apprehensive of his ending his life. He was 51 years old. He leaves a wife who it is feared will not recover from the shock. STRAYED-From Hilliard Wylie's place a red heifer calf 'about 5 moths old. $5 reward for re turn of game. B. E.

FOR RAILROAD COMMISSiONER. Editor .Aews and Herald: The office of railroad commis sioner is one of great responsi bility andi it is highly important that it be filled with the right man. A railroad commissioner should be possessed of a broad and liberal mind, trained in busi ess grooves, whetted and sharp ened by friction with every day business transactions. He should be a man of sufficient moral courage to enforce his views in the interest of public safety as well as public welfare, and at the same time not ignore the just interests of railroad corporations. He should have had a measure of success in the conduct of his owl bu-iness before entering on the heavy duties connected with this office. A man who meets all these requirements is Hon. Jno. . Wlling, whose candidacy for railroad commissioner we most heartily endorse. Mr. Wolling is nowv in the prime of life. He is one of the county's largest and most successful farmers. He is a public-spirited man, as is shown by his great interest in the school of his community, the session of which has often been extended by his contributions. He is deservingly popular in his own community, having received 14 out of the 130 votes cast at is home box in 1900. He is also very popular in the county, having twice headed the ticket for the house of representatives. Ten, too, Mr. Wolling has had seven years' experience in prac tical railroading, having been a the capacity of a locomotive engineers In asking yott to support him, we feel sure that wherever he may be he will be found to be a man of the highest type of Chris tian character, whose roputation is unsullied, whose ability is nu questioned, and whose peculiar fitness for the office he seeks is recognized by many, many citi zens of . : Fairfeld County. OWENS-HERRON. An Impressive flarriage Ceremony Performed in the Presence of Many. Piany Fi ied.s. A most beautiful and impres sive marriage ceremony was p< r formed Wbdnesday evening iu the Presbyterian church at 8.30 o'clock. The attendance was probably the largest that ever gathered in Winnsboro to witness a similar *etent, so old yet ever new and beautiful. The decora tions were 'superb, .the spacious pulpit being a solid wass of rarest orchids and pot plants, which silently ytt beautifully and elo quently spoke of the grandeur and solemnity of the occasion. Promptly at the appointed hour the organ's peals proclaimed the arrival of the wedding party, and Lohengren, that grand old march, rendered yet grander by the touch of such an Irt t as"Miss Annie Aiken, filled the church w ith luscious melody and concord of sweetest sounds. The couples entered in; the following order: Mr. W. C. Boyd preceded the attendants in the left aisle, and opposite him in the right aisle Miss Allie err, of Greenwood, (once a resfent of Winnsboro). Her native grace and beauty with her calir demeanor made her an ideal participant in such an event -this cou le opened the gates through which the remaining attendants wer3 to usher the bride. The couples first entering were Mr. TI C. Davis ivith Miss Kats Mellichanip down the right aisle and Dr. Sami. Lindsay with Miss Bessie Bookter down the left, then Mr. L. E. Owens on the right and Miss Bessie Lyles on the left. Following came Mr. J. W. Cathcart with Miss Mary Matthews,. and Mr. E.-1.Han- - ban with* Miss Bessie Quatt e baum, all e ring the gates and formin '-eircle ready to recei .. m ;&ir. Azrthur Mynrd 0 us and 'his fregal bride Miss Ciara Louise Herron, whose usual beauty was but augmented by her sweet respon sibility. They w.ere led to the altar with characteristic ease and grace by Mr. Jno. F. Davis as best m'tn and Miss Elizabeth Cureton as maid of honor, who was typical of the name-an honor to herself, bride and friends. She was petit and blonde and perfect in the role she assumed1. After the ceremony, feelingly expressed by their pastor, Dr. D. E. JTordan, the bridal party enjoyed a reception given at the home of the groom. During the evening the "prophetic" cake, containing the ring and button, was cut. The button, mildly suggestive of bachelorhood, fell to the lot of Mr. J. W. Cathcart, and the ring, intimating an early occurrence of a similar auspicious occasion, was won by Mr. L. E. Owens. After a delightful supper the t~ime coursed swiftly by and too soon the. hour of departure ar rived. Thus ended the events of a happy occasion. If the best wishes of a -host of friends and the manifestation of interest by all, together with lovely weather are auspicious omens, theni the future of this youing couple will be but a brilliant reflection of their joyous past. The News and Herald extends its best* wishes to this happy young couple. WANTED :-Live canvassers for a fast selling novelty. Ad dress with references, Novelty Printing Co., 2t Southern Pines, N. C.

Winnsboro is said to be unprogressive, Winnsboro people ulta-conservatjve, but onie very noticeable and commendable thing about Winnsboro is that she never does things by halves, when she decides to do anything at all. Especially is this true as regards educational matters and enterprises.
