Advertising Bates Reasonable. Entered at Pickens rostoffice as Second Clas Mall Mater PICKENS, S. C.: THURSDAY. MAY 27, 1909 PICKENS WILL HAVE FAIR A meeting of the Pickens Co. Fair Association was held in the court'house Wednesday af* ternoon at 4 o'clock to deter mine whether or not they would have another fair this fall. It was unanimously decided to have a fair. The following officers were elected to serve for the ensuing year: T. J. Mauldin, Pres.: R. T. Hallum, V.-Pr,.-.; W. J. Bolt, Sec.; J. N. Hallum, Treas. J. F. Harris, Gen'l. Mgr. The meeting was very enthu siastic and all the indictations Point to another successful fair. RAILROAD TROUBLE. The Georgia Railroad has run into an open switch. There seems to be a stubborn strike and the proverbial Billy-goat have met on the foot log and neither will lie down and let the other walk over. The management want negro firemen on the locomotives and the other help do not want them. That small matter may kindle a big fire. Demonstrations of violence by excited crowds have been made in Augusta, Thomson and Ath ens. Nothing but cool, careful work by urudent men on both sides can avert a far reaching calamity. Statute law connects the railroads in the United States. Community of interest connects the labor unions. CLEMSON COLLEGE. The little family jars at Clem son College serve to keep its name in the papers, and gives to editors and correspondents all the excuse they need for saying anything they think. The Co lumbia State asks " Why Clem son?' The Anderson Daily Mail uses a column to give many po tent reasons on the "why." Others want the State to take full charge and not be in part nership with the testamentary trustees. These trustees as has been often shown never have been dictatorial or partisan. The record of the proceedings showvs no line of demarkation. There is no place for the taxpay er to kick. It is doing well doing a great work and this in vites the slings and arrows of resentment. Corn $1.10, cotton 11 cents. Plant more corn. A thoughtful farmer said last week, South Carolina would have no placeht store her wealth in ten years, if all the farmers north of Colum bia raised enough hay, wheat and corn to run themselves. No more power or expense is needed. Just turn the current from cotton to other products. The delegates to the Southern Baptist Convention at Louisville have returned with a wonderful impression of the magnitude of the work to be done and an in spiration that assures sucess. It is exhilarating to hear them talk. __ _ _ _ _ _ _ Whatever vou (1o do some thing. if you do all h~ad, this will inspire some one to call at tent ion to your redeeming traits. If vou do well, there will be enough resentment to advertise your meanness. The clouds will roll bv, the sun will shine out and1 shine down and the scars from the storm will disappear.

The c'lou~ds wi1nt to the Mleek la week and coured ont thi Cateechee's News Budget. As was announced in this pa per last week, Mr. DeForest Williams died in the Hospital at I Aberdeon, Washington, on the 14th inst. and his brother, Wade had his body embalmed and started home with his remains on the 15th. They reacht1 dNor ris on No. 41 on the night of the 20th inst. His remains were carried immediately to his mo ther's, Mrs. A. B. Willians, of Norris, where they remained until the next day (Friday) about 1 p. m. and were then carried to the Baptist Church at Norris and his funeral preached by Rev. W. M. Walker after which all that was mortal of him was carried to Mt. Zion cemetery at Central and laid to rest beside his father, the late A. B. 'Wil liams, who proceeded him to that world beyond about eight years ago. The deceased was a single man, about. 30 years old. He left home about ten years ago and went to Indianna where he remained for two years When his father died he came home and stayed a few days after which he and his brother Wade left and went to Aberdeen, Wash., where they have re mained ever since. DeForest was on the police force when he took sick and had been for some time. His employers say he made a faithful and fearless I officer, always ready and wil ling to discharge any duties that might be envolved upon him. He was sick 48 days. He was first taken with the grip and was confined in the hospital sev eral days after which he got bet ter and went on duty again. He was then stricken down with paralysis from which he never did recover. The deceased nev er had united with any church but just before his death Father Griffin of the Catholic hospital where he was confined baptised him. He told his brother Wade just before he died that he had Ibeen baptized and that every thing was all 0. K. with him. De Forest was a young man who always stoodl ready and willing to do his part in any thing. His brother J. W. Wil liams tells us that even in a trade or any kind of a trans action with his brothers or strangers he would do more than was his part rather than to have hard feeling. He always stood ready to lend a helping hand in any kind of a benevolent pur pose or cause. He belonged to bo0th the Odd Fellows and the Red Men. The Odd Fellows of Cateechee at tended the burrying and carried out the rules of the order. The deceased leaves a mother, one living sister, Mrs. Turner Arno!d of Central, and four brothers, namely, W. J., J. W. Wade and Barney Williams of Cateechee besides a host of other relatives and friends to mourn his loss. There were about four hun dred people attended his bury ing. We extend our heartfelt sym pathies to the bereaved family. Mr. Wade Williams will re turn to Aberdeen in a few days to wind up his and his deceased brother's business after which W ade will come back to Pickens county to spend the rest of his (dars. Wade likes Aberdeen fine but at the request of his mother who is getting old he will come back home. Wade is looking well and from all appearances has been em joy ing good health. They have both accumulated some property since they went to Aberdeen. J. F. Williams, of Cateechee was one among the number who went to Charlotte, N. C., last week to see Pres. Taft. Jolly says he enjoyed his trip fine and hopes to have the pleasure of visiting the city of Charlotte again soon. That "'hustler" Bob Robison, of Liberty accom panied Mr. Williams and every body knows Bob never meets a stranger. Mr. J. E. Christopher, Mrs. W. N. G antt andl Mrs. Whit mire and t wo dlaughiters, Misses. Has lie and Ressie, of ('ateechee, vis ited in F-ickens last Sunday. Eug~ene Stenton, of Cateechee Mr. Barney Whitmireoflas' lev, attended the Williams bury ing last Friday. In making mention of Mr. Duff Bolding's wheat last wee'k' the coml)positor or some one c.lse through ai error niade it read 5 in. to the stalk instead of 5 in. to the head.

Mr. Milt Childs, of Traveler's Rest, shot and killed a large eagle Saturday at Traveler's Rest. which measured 7 feet 4 inches from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other. The eagle was perched upon a limb of a tree watching some young pigs feeding in a pen. Mr. Childs securing his trusty old gun. got within shooting <1i3 tance, and with a clever shot brought the bIig bird down. The left wing of the eagle was brok en. It gave a spirited battle be fore Mr. Childs finally managed to kill it. Mr. Childs says there is another one near his place even larger than the one he kil led on Saturdar.-G reenvill e Daily Piedmont. On last Friday morning, the 21st instant. Mr. M. M Rogers, of the Libert y side heard a ter rible eawing out in his pasture from a lot of crows and lookinge out he saw what he first thought might be a large hawk or owl in a tree, but, after getting his gun. and going up nearer discovered that it was an eagle. He shot at it, breaking its wing, and on approaching it, it put up a bold front; he shot it again and this time succeeded in killing it. The eagle measured six feet and eight inches from tip to tip of wings. That evening he ha(d it on exhibition in Pickens and it created quite a lot of interest. Mr. Rogers gave the carcass to Mr. Wade C. O'Dell, of Liberty who will have it stuffed and keep it. It was quite a large and vicious looking bird. Lived 152 Years. Wmn.
