The wonderful coolness and daring of the convict was never more fully exemplified than in this instance. In tho backward of the Gerald home, Anderson, the man whom Tracey had.kept a prisoner from the time he left Port Madison, was found tied to a tree. Tracey had tied Anderson while tho posse was in full view of tho hovse. The bloodhounds wore let loose on his trail and are reported to he only a jew minutes behind him.

State. Spartanburg* July 8.?A number of fraraera from vurious sections of the county are complaining of the lice pest in their cotton fields. It is unusual for the insect to create any serious damage to cotton at this season of the year, as a rule, only getting in "good work" when the stalk contains about from two to four leaves. Now the lice are not onlv tacklinc the loaves but the The Cotton Crop is Gaid To be Deteriorating. The Very i 1 ipjli Tempoiature and Scarcity of Ruin is the Cause; Belter Prospects in Texas. Washington, .Inly *.?'1 he weather bureau weekly summary of crop conditions savs: Rain is much needed in the South Atlantic States, where the week has been unusually warm, with showers over limited areas iml v J' Under highly favorable temperatures there ban beou a general improvement in the condition of corn throughout the central valleys and the outlook for this crop in the principal corn States is encouraging, although in the States of the Missouri valley it has sutl' ercd considerably from lack of cultivation, duo to excessive moisture. In the southern Stales a very poor crop is indicated and in portions of tho central Gulf districts the early planted is injured beyond recovery. COTTON. With showers over local areas only and very high temperatures the cotton crop over much the greater portion of the central and eastern districts of the cotton belt has materially deteriorated, < specially ovei ho southern portion of the districts named, although considering the size of the plant, it is fruiting veil and is generally clean. In Tennessee, extreme northern Mississippi, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Indian Territory the crop continues in promising condition, although it is needing cultivation and making too much weed in portions of Arkansas. In Texas cotton shows further improvement and is making health)' growth, except in the southwestern and northwestern counties, where it is at a standstill. While toe plant is small, it is spreading nicely and fruiting satisfactorily, and but few reports of shedding and boll weevil are received. The Storm in Florence. Special to The State. Florenco, July 8.?A good deal of damage was done here jesterdhY afternoon hy lightning. The storm was of short duration but severe. The twostory residence of the county superinteoIdent of education, John Ileeso McCown, was wrecked, and it is miraculous that any in the house escaped. The front piazzas, both u,p and down stairs, were demolished and the north wall of the house was torn out. Plastering fell in every i room in the houso and a number of window panes wore, shattered. The damage will amount to fcov* eral hundred dollars. In west Florence an ox was killed and the shingles torn from a small heuse.
