Florence, May 8.?The State Federa :on of Woman's Clubs completed its work at 6 o'clock this afternoon and adjourned to meet in Spartanburg next ~vear. at such time as will be selected "by the officers of th<? State federation and the local club committee of Spartanburg. This has been a grand convention and the visitors are loud in their praise of all they saw and of all the entertainment handed them. Tonight they enjoyed the hospitality of the Florence City Federation Clubs at a reception at the Central Hotel, "which was all aglow with electric lights, and decorated with the choicest of DeWitt House's Nursery, potted plants and cut flowers. The Morning Session. The meeting was called to order this morning promptly at 9.30 o'clock by \ The president. Mrs. Coleman, after which the minutes of yesterday's sessions were read by the recording secretary, Miss Cooley. \ The reports of the various Literary Clubs was then called for and were submitted as follows: Mrs. Wyman, from Aiken; Mrs. j W'eatherly, from Bennettsville; Mrs.! Pendergrass, from unarieston; Mrs. Harllee, from Darlington; Mrs. McMaster, from Florence; Mrs. Patton, from Greenville; Mrs. Dean, from ^Greenwood; Mrs. Jamison, From Greenwood; Mrs. Blue, from Marion; Mrs. Spratt from Mayesville; Mrs. "Whitloek, from Ridgeway; Mrs. Bell, from Rock Hill; Mrs. Stone, from "Rnr.V Will' Mrs. Johnstone, from Al , - ? - -r ?? lendale; Miss Gibson, from McCall; Mrs. Strather, from Prosperity. The clubs were all urged to use a continuous program throughout the , year. A number of them reported as . Tiaving had continuous programs for several years past. The object of a continuous prpgram is in the line of progressive study. A number of the members suggested a change in the program of "fine marts'' evening. This brought forth ?reat and animated discussion. a number of the .members objected to "having the outside speakers on these i -evenings confine their subjects to pure ly literary on-3s, as it was unfair to j ih?. other departments of the federation. There evidently was a sentiment in favor of the change, yet it was finally decided to let it remain as it is. ' YRANK HELD IN PHAGAX CASE.! I Superintendent of Pencil Factory to Go Before (iranil Jury. Atlanta, May 5.?Leo M. Frank, superintendent of the National Pencil ^Company's factory, and Newt Lee, the factory negro watchman, late this afternoon were ordered by the coroner's jury to be h-eld for F-and jury investigation of the death of fourt-en-year<old Mary Phagan, whose body wasi found in the factory on April 27 last. The verdict of the coroner's jury followed an extended afternoon session, at which both Frank and Lee, both of whom are under arrest on suspicion, vce recalled to the stand. Frank reiterated his former assertions of ig-, n'Arin no o o fho manner tn whinh I ?vi auvt ao tv vuv ,, . 3Iary Phagan met her death, and Lee again told the story of his finding the girl, a mutilated body, in the factory basement. Xo new testimony of importance was given by either. Alleged undue familiarity on the :part of Superintendent Frank toward women employees of the factory was "testified to by Mrs. C. D. Donegan, a forelady there, and Lillie Mae Pettis, :a young girl, who said she often visited the pencil plant to see friends who ' TTVonlr "RntVt were empiu,yccs uuu^x x- < uun. ^^ ? Told the coroner's jury that the susp-ected superintendent had made improper advances toward them. Other employees of the factory who were ex-[ .<imined said that they had never observed improper conduct on the part of Frank. TWO HUNDRED KILLED I\ WRECK ! i .Insurgents Fired Into Train. Exploding* Dynamite, It Is Said. ^Nogales, Ariz., May 8.?Two hundred jives are reported lost in the train disaster at Den, near the Sinaloa-Sonora border yesterday. State troop leaders declare the train bearing 200 federal soldiers was not dynamited by stealth. :It is said the insurgents fired into the 'xrain, exploding a car of dynamite ?--hich the federals were conveying to v MTJnjivmas. Only fifty of the passengers are reported to have escaped death, and others "were wounded. The troops were moving from San Bias in Xothern irom which point the insurgents feared they would proceed to reinforce the garrison defending the Gulf port. Could Recall l"irly Things of (irace. Kingstree Record. It is a dull season in matters, political when tii- Hon. John P. Grace, j mayor of the city of Charleston, does j not attempt to raise some kind of disturbance. Mayor Grace's latest ex hibition in his particular line is an effort to hold up th-e seating of Hon. Richard S. Whaley, Congressman-elect from the first district. Mayor Grace fought against Whaley's election to i the very last ditch, and when his efforts failed of accomplishment, he whines like a sulky child, alleging that j "Whaley "didn't play fair" in the poliI tical game. If the honorable mayor " ""* * ? 1J rv?nm. I of cnariesion womu l encau UIO IXIV^XAA 1 | ory a bit he might recall that some I pretty . ugly things were said about his political methods during and a'ter j the strenuous campaign that landed him in the mayor's office. With all confidence we predict that Congressj man Whaley will* take 'his seat, to | which he is declared elected by the State d/emocj-atic executive committee. without any serious inconvenience or embarrassment, Mayor Grace to the contrary notwithstanding. Calls on Farmers to Organize. Columbia, May 8.?"There was j never a more opportune time for far- j mers to organize than now, and I wish this call would be so loud that every farmer worthy of the name could hear and would give heed," said E. W. Dabbs, president of the State Farmer's Union, in a public call to the farmers of the State. In his call Mr. Da>abs deprecates the lethargy displayed by the farmers of1 the State, and says that they are more prone to criticize than to organize their shnnlders to the wheel aiiu yuv I of advancement. He urges all the farmers of the State to join their local ? organizations and to make the State Union a vital, driving force for the benefit of the farming interests of the S State. He avers that the indifference now displayed cannot make for a centralized co-operative strength in the * State union, and looseness of attendance at the annual meeting soon to be ( held, at which the policy of the administration of the union will be shaped for another year, and the lection of officers will be had, HTill have a deter- ( iorating effect on the organization. i Mr. Dabbs said that the Farmer's t Union should be represented at the c National convention by ore than one ^ delegate, but that such representation c can but be inad-equate wh^n the at- ( tendance at the annual meetii _ of the } State organization is so poor. ( In commenting on President Dabb's L cail. Col. E. J. Watson, commissioner ? of agriculture, commerce and indus- q tries, this morning said: c "There are now more reasons why ( the farmers of South Carolia should n maintain strong local and county] unions than ever before. The reasons! President Dabbs gives are good and strong ones, but when we look forward'to what the coming cotton sea- ^ son holds in the vitally important mat- " ter of the price per pound the pro- ? ducer will get for it, in the light of in dicative //acts. I do not hesitate to say that it is of supreme importance that the cotton growers the South approach the fall months with a solidly * organized front. Resort to expedien- ? cies, and plans that are uneconomic, t cannot longer save the price of cot- e ton to the producer. The hour has 1 struck when organized, intelligent ac- c tion must be taken, and the logical channel is the Farmer's union.

A number of persons have com- j plained about the heavily loaded wag- p ons used by the paving company now ^ working in Greenville. In one in- ^ stance tne norses urawmg uae ui these wagons loaded with asphalt fell at the corner of Main and Washington and were dragged several feet by the wagon. Mr. Vaughn, the S. P. C.
