"The largest acreage in the history of. the county," it is noted, "has already been seeded in grain and the farmers are still sowing it." The county should organize a full aisplay of its wheat flour in its exhibit at the exposition next yeer. Such products axe in high favor with homeseekers from the farming states of the North and West Hardly Pro-Ratable. Mr. G. W. S. Hart will take up to the supreme court, an interesting case that has grown out of the Commercial" and Farmers' bank failure. Just previous to the failure, Mr. Hart's client, who was not a depositor, had sent to the bank a draft for collection. The failure came after the collection had been made, and Mr. Hart held before Judge Klugh that his client was not a creditor of the bank in the ordinary sense of the term, and that his client could not be pro-rated, and the supreme court will have to decide the matter. The case is quite interesting. Editor Bradford Loses His Child. Fort Mill Times, December 5: Virginla, the ll-month8-old daughter of Capt. and Mrs. W. R. Bradford, died of a concrAaHvo nhlll nt the home of her father In this place Sunday morning at 4.15 o'clock and was burled in the Fort Mill cemetery Sunday afternoon at 4.30 The little girl had been sick only two days and her condition was not regarded as serious until a few hours before she died. Drs. T. S. Kirkpatrick and D. G. Thompson were called in and did everything that medical skin could suggest to save the life of the little one, but all to no avail. Drowned In Clark's Fork. Benjamin Franklin, a Negro boy, aged about 12 years, was drowned in Clark's Fork, near the new roller mill, last Tuesday. He had been sent to carry dinher to one of the hands at work on the mill, and it is supposed that he fell into the creek, which was up, from a foot log. His body was found next day at a point some three-quarters of a mile down the creek. Coroner Brian held an inquest on Wednesday and Dr. Miles Walker, after making a postmorX 4Viof AO + V> TXTQ O LtfIII CAttlllluailVli ivuuu viiav uv?bM ?t?*w due to drowning. There was nothing to indicate violence. The verdict of the jury was in accordance with these facts. Grlst-Blalr. V Mr. Albert M. Grist, of The Enquirer staff, and Miss Bettie, eldest daughter of Mr. ai)d Mrs. J. C. Blair, were married at the residence of the bride's parents, near Blalrsville, last Wednesday afternoon at 2.30 o'clock. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. S. Grier, pastor of Sharon church, in the presence of a number of friends and relatives of the contracting parties, and in a room that was prettily decorated for the occasion witt evergreens and flowers. After the ceremony the guests of the occasion were invited into the dining-room to partake of refreshments bountifully spread by Mrs. Blair. From Mr. Blair's Mr. and Mrs. Grist came to Yorkville and took up their residence in the John S. Bratton house, on East Jefferson street, where they have since been at home to their many friends. ACTIVITY IN COTTON. t Claimed That Southern Mills Are Anticipating High Prices. The commercial world of the South is paying assiduous court to old King Cotton just now. There is more of a bustle, and more of a stir, and more rivalry to get in on the ground floor with him than for many years. Everybody is buying cotton?spots. The demand in Georgia is slowly running ahead of the supply, and the knowing ones, look for a surprising rise in the price before the ides of March. The mills throughout the state are taking all they can get?though the managements vociferously deny that they are particularly anxious to lay in a bale more than is necessary to run them from day to day. Which denial, of course, is "business.' "As a matter of fact," said a man prominent in cotton buying and cotton spinning circles today, "the movement in cotton is at present greater than I believe I have ever known. It is what might be called fierce. I know of a number of concerns that scoured the earth, so to speak, yesterday and took all they could procure. And they paid 9? for it, and would have paid more, mey are buying again today, and they are paying, or will have to pay, more than that figure for it. Only a comparatively small portion of these purchases are being made from the farmers. Country merchants who, with the assistants of their local banks, have been carrying the staple, are the scource of the supply, chiefly. "All the purchases are not for export. They are for home consumption, The mills believe that cotton is getting ready to jump. The home demand here for It has already started an upward Inclination. And they are trying to I load up before she soars skyward. "I happen to know about these mills I personally. And It is an open secret . that practically every mill in the state i is doing the same thing, although I myself do not know it, of my own knowledge, of course. ( "Under this pressure cotton will, I believe, reach 10 cents in two weeks. . And by the middle of March It will reach 11?maybe llj." The First Oir) Mill Worker. The Daily Mail, of Anderson, states that Mrs. Mary P. Picksell, aged 94, died at Broyles, in that county, last . Friday. She was born on Nantucket is> land, coast of Massachusetts, and fell in with the Methodists when the great tlr dal wave of the new leligion swept over New England. Her father, Mr. Coffin, persuaded by his friend, Weaver, then in Spartanburg county, left his island home for the red hills of Tyger, where Mr. Weaver was operating the first cotton mill ever erected in the state. This was in 1810. The location of the cotton mill was probably at "Burnt Factory." Mrs. Picksell was probably one of the first girls that ever worked in a cotton mill in this state. Mr. comn went rrom tins county to Greenville county and then to the neighborhood where Bojles mill now stands. Phillip Weaver was perhaps the father or grandfather of Lindsay C. Weaver, who graduated at WofTord in 1858, joined the South Carolina conference and died after a short service in the church. Stamp Taxes to Be Repealed.-^ Chairman Payne, of the ways and means committee, on Wednesday, introduced the bill reducing the taxation under the war revenue act, after the Republican members of the committee had agreed on the form of the measure and the articles to receive the reduction of tax.
