A terrible accident happened nl Mrs. R.. L. Solium port's gin on Ja^C r nday afternoon whereby Mr. Dudlev Hawkins lost bis life. Mr. Hawkins was a nephew of Mrs. I Sehunipert and a son of Mr. P. M. Hawkins. Ho bar been with Mr. and Mrs. Schumpcii for a good many years, and since Mr. Schnmpert's death has bad practically entire control of t be roller mill and ginnery as well as the farm. He was a young man ;11>i>111 21 years old, very attentive to business, and with a host of friends. In fact it is said that all of "'< yourn.tr men in |.|,e conimunnlv ^aine to see him when they learned of the accident and when il was known that he could not live Ihev wepi as if a near and dear relative was dead. <>n Friday afternoon about four o'clock something got wrong with the -'" Mr. Hawkins undertook to clean il on! and in doing so bis righthand was caught in the saws and bis whole arm pulled into | lie gj? cutting '1 into shreds up to bis shoulder before the engine could be stopped. Ft !<>"k at least a half hour t<> take bis arm out of the machine and during I be entire time he directed how it should be done, and showed remarkable nerve and presence of mind though suffering terribly. lie was taken from the gin to the home of Mr*. Schnmpert and Dr. (Jilder was summoned but did not reach Mr. Hawkins until about six o'clock. Dr. Senu accompanied Dr. (Jilder. Dr. (Jilder stales that Mr. Hawkins died from the shock, and thai il was impossible for medical skill to render any aid. Mi. Hawkins died about twelve o clock the same night and his body was buried ,-u Khene/.cr on Saturday a ft ernoon. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS. ??e wherry Lodge to Give Entertainnient-?F. P.

' be member.-* of I lie other lodge.-. it: lbi< eouuly and o! M|. Knou in Saluoa county, have been invited to m.'Ci with I be Newberry lodge on ibis occasion a- I be guests of Newberry No. Mr. I* rank I*. ('ooper, of ' iiarleston. who is chairman of the riioruwell Memorial ('oinniil lee, apI'oinled by tbefirand Lodge at Aiken, lias accepted an invitation to meet with the Knights on ibis occassion, and will deliver bis lecture explaining and exempli lying the secret work of the order and at the same time presetting the inlerest of the Thornwell Memorial Fund. The Knights of Pythias ju this Stale have decided to raise a memorial to tlie late Dr. .lames H. Thornwell, the proceeds from the fund to be used for the education of orphans of Pythians, The commit lee has been most successful and it is certain that the Knights of Newberry will do their part towards this worthy cause. ' 'rand Chancellor L. S. Mattison will also be present at the meeting on November 3rd, and it is probable that there will, lie one or two candidates upon whom the second rank will be con ferrod. 'I be members of Newberry No. 7/> are very anxious that every i Knight o| Pythias in this county who) can po.s blv do so will attend this I 'iieetiiisj. The members of Newberry! lodge will serve light refreshments j during the evening. It is the general election night and it is very probable that news of the election will be received and the members during the evening can also bear the result. I be grand chancellor expects to raise at least $20,000 by the meeting <?! the (Jrand Lodge in Charleston next May for the Thronwcll Memorial I' u nil. Ibis should be a very easy thing to do and in fact twice that sum ought h> be raised without much difficulty. The membership of the Knights of Pythias in this Stale now is something over 12,000 and it is a very easy calculation to see how small an amount from each one will give a very large fund. A special committee from Newberry No. 75 composed of Messrs. E. If. Anil, Robert Norris, and C. A. Howman has been appointed to make arlangemenls lor this special meeting, and a notice will be sent to each member ol Newberry No. 7f> urging' his attendance. The invitation to O'Neal). Old Town, Prosperity, and Ml. Knon has already been sent, but I he committee has heard from only Prosperity, but it expects the other lodges to nttend this special covention. HEAVY CRIMINAL DOCKET. N Eight Homicides Sinco July?Extra Week of Criminal Court Ordered?Prisoners in Jail. Solicitor Cooper hn.s ordered a sen* oiul week for the criminal court at Nowhcrry and it is probable that he will be unable to complete all of the criminal business even with the two weeks of court. There are probably more criminal eases on the docket at Newberry for this court than has been there for many years, and we do not recall at | any time within our recollection of the criminal court at Newberry when there were as many murder cases. There are now eighteen prisoners in jail, four of these are appeal cases, and one a prisoner from the chain g:rtig who is sick, leaving? l.'l prisoners in jail for trial. In addition to these a number of those charged with crime are out on bond. Since the 20th of June there have been eight homicides in the county; and there are twelve prisoners, eight principals and four accessories charged with murder. Judge Monuninger, who recently held |he common pleas court in Newberry, will hold the criminal court in November. The jury for the first week of the court will be drawn on Saturday of Ibis week and the jury for the second week will be drawn on Saturday of next week, November 7th. The court will open oil the lt)th o|' November. SPECIAL JUDGE SCHUMPERT. Governor Ansel Appoints Col. 0. L Schumpert to Hold Special Court.

Negro Who Shot Another on Hollingsworth Place Arrested at Ninety Six. Andrew Savage, the negro who *diot Arch Smith, another negro, at a hot supper on the 1 lollingsworth place. No. 7 township, about ten days ago, was arrested at Ninetv Six on Sunday. Policeman Attawav, at ('happelN. saw him as Im> boarded the train at Cliappclls on Sunday morning and wired the policeman at Ninety Six to arrest him when the train reached that point. In the meantime Policeman Attawa.v came to Newberry and informed the sheriff, who had a warrant for Savage. Sheriff Buford went to Ninety Six on the afternoon train on Sunday returning the same night with his prisoner. Savage had purchased a ticket to Hodges and was evidently intending to get out of reach of the officers. It is said that the negro Arch Smith who was shot is getting on very well and will probably recover. SATURDAY BROKE RECORD. About. Eight Hundred Bales Cotton Sold?Price Was Nine Cents. Cotton on Saturday was selling in Newberry a( nine cents, and it wa * one of the biggest days that Newberry has had in a long time. Wagons loaded with cotto'n stood in the streets leading to tin* platform on which the cotton is weighed for several blocks, and it was late in the afternoon before the last wagon was able to lvacli the platform. About 800 bales w*re sold and quite a number put in the warehouse. If looked like old t'.mes in Newberry. Chrysanthemum Show. As announced in last issue the ladies of Aveleigh Presbyterian church will hold their annual chrysanthemum show on next Friday in the store room recently occupied by Messrs. Murray and Golden. Tn addition to the beautiful display of chrysanthemums, roses, and other flowers that will be on display, the ladies will also serve lunch during the day. Delicious refreshments ca'n be had there and it will doubtless be a most pleasant occasion, and all lovers of flowers should not miss the opportunity of seeing the large, beautiful, and rare collection of these "Queen of tho Fall" flowers which will be seen. HON. E. D. SMITH SPEAKS. A Large Crowd Hear Him?Delivers an Eloquent Appeal to the Farmers to Organize. 'I . Hon. E. 1). Smith according lo appointment addressed the farmers in I lie old court house on Saturdayjnorning at eleven o'clock. Mr. Smith devoted la is remarks mainly to the importance of fanners organizing and endeavored to show them how the decline in the price of rotten had been a great loss to all terprizes and especially to -the farmers of this State. lie did not urge them to hold cotton but lie showed how the price ought to be more than I it is, and how it could he if the farmers were willing to contribute a j small amount per bale for the purpose I of forming an organization through which lhey could demand a better price for their staple product. The court house was filled and Mr. Smith was given the very best of attention and everybody spoke in the highest terms of his address. There is only one solution to the farmers of (his section of the country and that has been preached so long and so often that il has become almost threadbare. Everybody admits the trutlifulness of the position hut very few practice it. So long as the farmers, of South Carolina especially, undertake to buy everything they need on the farm instead of growing il there, they will be at the mercy of those who purchase their cotton. The farmer who grows on the farm all that he needs on the farm, and in this country he can do that, and then grows all the cotton he can, will make some money fanning iregardless of the price. On the other hand the farmer who undertakes to buy everything he needs and to pay for it Ingrowing cotton will not make any money il matters little how high the price of cotton tnav be. Another thing fhat the fanner ought to do in this seeli??n is to <?row about twice I lie amount of cotton on the same land, or in other words plant about half the acreage and make the same amount of cotton. This can be done and at less expense and with h-ss labor. Organization is all right but organization alone will not solve the problem. NEWBERRY LIBRARY.
