Harvey statfed to a/ citizen of the town
tlmt he had never tasted. . either
T'hlsky or-'wine. "I hope I am..not fanatical
m my opposition to strong

at least consistent, in my attitw.o toward
it. .f have ypt to see the man
who was 'benefited'socially, morally,

and Farmers' bank of Pinevill openod
its doors for business a few days aigo.
W. B. Meachcm of Fort Mill is president
and L. L. Downs of IMneville
cashier. The officers and directors of
the new bank are substantial citizens
and the prospects are that it will bo
liberally patronized, Finevme mis
been without a bank since the Loan
v and Savings bank was forcod, out of
business more than a year ago by the
alleged speculations of the cashier
"Possibly it is not one of the really
serious matters of the day, but I should
like to have The Times call attention
to the dilapidated appearance of the |
Main street side of the town hall,"
yesterday said a Fort Mill citizen. "A
number of lights have been broken
out of the windows and for the sake of
the appearance of the hall if for no
other reason they ought to be replaced.
I do not know whether the
military company, which uses the hall
as an armory, is recponsible for the
missing lights or not, but I suspect
that it is, and if this suspicion is wellfounded.
"the military company should
see that new lights are put in at
once."
Chester Reporter, Sept. 28: Fire on
Mr. W. D. Robinson's plantation on the
Peden's Bridge road Monday evening
destroyed a cotton house and about |
12,000 pounds of cotton in the seed.
Mr. Robinson had only a small amount
of insurance on the building, which
was of some sise and first-class construction;
his loss on cotton was
about two-thirds covered..... The !
dwelling house of Mr. Henry C. Gibson
in the Rossville neighborhood was
destroyed by fire Tuesday, some of
the contents being saved. The loss included
two automobiles, one the property
of Mr. Gibson, the other belonging
to Mr. Wm. Robinson. Jr. Mr.
Gibson, we understand, had only $1,000
insurance on his house Mrs. Riddle
L. Canupp, widow of the 'ate
Philo Canupp, died at her homo at
Loc' hart, last Monday, September 25, |
and was burled in the Armenia cemc- |
tevy Tuesday by the side of her Ijus- j
band. Mrs. Canupp lived to a ripe old
age, being in her 77 ?. year. She is j
survived by six childen, three sons and
three daughters: J. L. Canupp, of ;
Chester, D. E. Canupp, of Bullock's
Creek; W. P. Canupp, of Lockhart,
and Mrs. Laura, E. Cookson, Mrs. A.
E. Sigmon and Miss Daisy Canupp, of
Lockhart Resolutions signed by i
the Board of Directors of the Chester
Chamber of Commerce have been sent
the three members of the Board of
County Directors, Mr. L. M. Wooten,
chairman, with reference to improv- ,
ing the race track at the Chester county
fair grounds for the fair this fall. ;
It Is in every sense a county fair, the
directors say, and this is the first und
only time the county authorities have
ever been called on for any assistance
in promoting the fair. The city extended
the water main to the grounds
and built a now road from York streol
to the fair ground entrance, and in
.-view of the fact that $22,000 has been
expended on grounds and buildings
the Chamber of Commerce feels justified
in asking tire county for this assistance
Mr. W. O. Cuy placed
an order yesterday for machinery <or
u roller mill of 2o-barrel capacity that
Jie expects to put up near the Seaboard.
The machinery was purchased
from a ^concern in Owensboro, Ky., and
will be shipped within the next thirty
days A north-bound freight on
the Southern Railway was derailed
thlfcmorning near Winnsboro, and the
track torn up for a considerable dis- !
tonce. which caused a tic-up of tlie
north and south-bound passenger j
trains for several hours. Nobody was
hurt.
Gaffney Ledger, Sept. 28: Officers
C. Y. and L. H. Allison have rendered
Cherokee county a signal service by
dispatch'ng a notorious female character
from Klacksburg. Armed with n
search warrant they went to the home
of Maggie Roland on Tuesday and discovered
the woman intoxicated and in
possession of a small amount of lhiuor.
There were four cases pending against
her in the Blacksburg city court, and
she voluntarily agreed to leave the
state. This the authorities agreed to, i
so on Wednesday she folded her tent,
and like the Arab, silently stole away.
r...Aliss Juanita Xcely, state poultry
specialist of Winthrop college, arrived
in the city yesterday to spend two or
three days. While here Miss Neely will
assist Miss Mabtl Beasley, county
demonstration agent, in several culling
demonstrations that she is carrying or.
One or two of these meetings are to be
held today, but no place had been an*
nounccd at the hour of going to press.
Mr. R. T. Lawson, a prominent
farmer in the Eastern portion of
Cherokee county, was a GafTney visitor
yesterday. In speaking of his crop
prospects, Mr. Lawson said that he
will make about fifty per cent, of a normal
cotton crop, owing to the ravages
of the weevil and dry sj Ml, and will
not make over eight to ten bushels of
r-ni-n to thp acre. Mr. Lawson is also
of the opinion that if the farmers had
.prepared their land and planted and
cultivated cotton with their usual vim
and energy the crop would not have
fallen so short ?The condition of
Mrs. JC. H. Littlejohn, of South Limestone
street, who suffered a fractured
limb last Tuesday is reported as being:
satisfactory and the lady is improving
as fast as could be expected.

Lancaster News, September 29: A

S. C\, were noted on the streets
Saturday. They brought $3 bushel.
Mr. Lafflin staled that chey were
of the White English variety. The
fruit was of medium size und of fine
flavor, and did not have the appearance
of early decay as is the ease of
hot weather or early peaches
Speaking of squirrels, on last Saturday
Charles D. Jones procured from a
friend, and had on exhibition during
the day in the window of his cotton
office, on Main street, eight young
squirrels of same size and ago and the
exhibit of these graceful little animals
excited much interest. Jlr. Jones, after
turning these squirrels, will turn
them loose as pets in the grove surrounding
his home During Tuesday
night the store of Massey-Yoder
comiKtny at Van Wyck was entered by
unknown parties and a quantity of
rnerehandise carried away, including
hats, caps, overalls, shops, socks, pistols,

West, 1,041; East, 3S6; Clara,
172; Highland colored, 613; Willow,
423; Central grammar grades, 434;
Central high school, 348. The total enrollment
in the schools both white and
colored is 3,317 ?How the influence
of Evangelist A. A. Haggard, conducting
a series of tent services in East
Gactonia, broke up a divorce suit aiready
pending and reunited an estranged
couple is one of the interesting
stories that comes from the Haggard
meeting today. Stating that the men
seemed to have all the innings in tent
services, a splendid looking young
woman said, Thursday evening: "We
women appreciate the opportunity of
telling how much the tent meetings
MAY ABDICATE.
According to report Mohammed
VI.. Sultan of Turkey, will abdicate
in favor of his cousin, Prince
Abdul Medjid Effendi. The Sultan's
ill-health and developments
in the Empire arc the reasons
given. ?
i
have meant to us. not only in the uuv|
ing of our men folks but in saving: us."
'Three other ladies followed her with
i testimonies that rang true. It war \
J stated from tin* platform of tin- (Jospel
tent on Bast Ozark slre< t Thursday
| night, "A wife from Hast Oiistonin had |
engaged the servic s of a Cast mia attorney
last week to institute proceedings
for divorce and was to return to j
! his oftlce last Saturday to sign the
| papers.and have summons issued. Her
husband was converted last Kridity
night. She kept her appointment with
the attorney on Saturday, her husband
with her, had the papers cancelled and
returned to a re-united and happy j
home." With bootleggers giving up
their 'nefarious business, garnblers forsaking
chips and dice, drunkards being
made sober and 'shiners breaking up
skills, the tent services have been brimful
of human interest stories which,
however is but part of the wonderful
amount of good that has betn accomplished
since the Haggard evangelistic
I party pitched their Gospel font in GasI
tonia.

Rev. G. W. King, beloved colored
minister of Shelby died at his
home in Frcednion this week. "Rev.
King was one of the leaders of his
race and was greatly admired by his
many white friends. For many years
he was active in the ministry and a
very effective worker Henry Carroll

not kill and the dog bit Mr. Carroll on
the leg. Its head was sent to Raleigh

? Governor Harvey has suspended J
from office Sheriff \\\ M. Ackernian of |
Colleton county, pending the trial of
the sheriff on charges of malic: sam e
in ?flicc, with the understanding, of

he will be re-instated.
? In an address to the Greenwood'
Parent-Teachers* association Friday,
Mrs. George Luiu of Chai Icston, stab
chainnan of the South Carolina Parent-Teachers'
association, urged the
formation of a stronj state organization
so that it could affiliate with the 1

in this state h< ing only

? Joe \\\ Woissir.ger, Democratic
' candidate for magistrate, who- lives j
near Chnpin, Richland county, has
j been charged In warrants secured by
Federal officers with having n moonj
rhine still in his i*ossession, according
to word received at the office of GovI
ernor Harvey. The officers matting
J the raid claim they found a tlfteengcllnn
still in operation in the Weisslnger
kitchen. Two other members
of the family also face arrest, it is
said.
? Flip-fiops, hand springs, somersaults
and enlosthentics soon may be
added to the curriculum of the South
Carolina penitentiary if Governor Harrey's
p'.uns are carried out, it became
known a few days ago. The governor
told newspaper men, that he felt that
a more varied recreation program
should be provided for prisoners at the j
institution and intimated that he soon
would purchase gymnasium apparatus
and have it installed in the. prison
yard. The governor who visited the
piison a few days ago, takes the position
that if the men are given stimulating
recreation during the hours they
are not at work, it will make them
better men. The governor exi>ects to
urge upon tiie next legislature a
change in the present system under
which county supervisors cun retain*]
convicts wanted for road work. This I
results in many able bodied, men never
reaching the prison. The governor
would have all long term men sent to
the prison in Columbia. He also probably
will recommend extension of the
prison industries.
? According to announcement Saturday,
from the office of the comptroller
general, there remains upon the tax'
books of the treasurers of the various
counties of the state, approximately
$1,000,000 property tax which must be ]
collected by executions in the hands of
the sheriffs. The total tax levy of the
state for all purposes amounts to (
nearly five and one-half million dollars,
leaving a balance upon which
taxes have not been paid to the state
cf more than one-fifth. In addition to
the million dollars deficit which toces
the taxpayers of the state, there will
be the burden of one dollar for the issuance
of the executions, which will f
revert to the county treasurer and in !
addition the mileuge and other expenditures
necessary to the collections. On 1
yesterday morning the sheriffs of the I
3tate will begin their rounds in an at - {
tempt to make. then, collections by
execution process, accepting the money !
when possible and where impossible, j
those who lip to this time have failed j
to render tribute to the slate and county,
whether through inability caused
by the ravages of the boll weevil [
or for other reasons, in the event that '
i
they are unable to meet their indebt
tdncss caused by the extravagant taxa- i
lion of the past year to meet the enor- !
mous appropriation bill passed by the i
general acsernbiy of 1321, will be j
forced to turn over to the sheriffs for j
sale, the property which they own, and !
from which the revenue has not been '
sufficient to take care of their physical j
needs, and. at the sume time assist in J
meeting the expenses of the state gov- !
ernment". Altogether the outlook in |
South Carolina is gloomy. The comp- '
troller general has ma'de definite and !
final announcement that there will be
no further extension for the payment i
of taxes. I
