His friends are glad that his travels will bring him to Newberry. VARIOUS AND ALL ABOUT. The Jasper chapter D. A. R., will meet with Miss Mary L. Burton, Friday the 10th, at four o'clock. Somebody said one of those slit skins, or skirt slits, or wnatever it is, was seer: in Newberry Saturday. Did you see it. The reporter did not, but it was not the .fault of his eyes. Little Miss Sudie Davenport, the nine-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. ,C. Davenport, on Newberry route No. 4, while walking about on the premises last Friday, stepped on a thorn, the sharp thorn piercing her bare foot f" A f V? A Anf r\ f An a 0 A in nf T f l\J ucpm UL uiic aiiu -O-T it was a 2-inch thorn which just left I enough for the pinchers to grasp in ' withdrawing it. The way that cotton was strung from the warehouse to high up on Friend street, branching around the corner and stretching on Main street beyond Dr. W. G. Mayes' drug store, i filling the back streets nearby, was a sight to encourage the optimists and make the pessimists borrow a smile. It is cheering to note the pre- j sence of over 800 bales in town Sat- j urday, 787 of which being sold, bring- i ing 13.65 to 13.90. A sweet potato bloom is not a very rare thing anymore as it used to be in Newberry, but when it (tames to a j whole patch it is worth your sitting i ud to take notice. Mr. W. A. Wherry, one of the city's versatile letter carrier's and paper deliverers and package pokers, has a potato patch, grow- 1 ing several different varieties, which if pretty will covered with blooms, j He says they are not quite as thick ! as morning glories, but are plentiful , enough. Mr. Wherry, who, as a hand-1 ler of Uncle Sam's reading matter, can converse with you about anything from Harry Thaw up or down, will talk to you about the "sweet potato bloom." Master's Sales. Saiesday in Aewoerry is not tne Dig day it once was In fact, it is now no more than an ordinary day. Those who are interested in the legal sales come, and those not interested do not ! attend. Then the "boneyard" is now only a 1 memory. j There were only three sales by the master as follows: in tne case 01 ueo. Jts. mpp ei m against Jno. W. Hipp, one hundred and sixty acres were sold to J. T. McCracken for $1,600. Luther C. Dominick et al. against Cora Dominick eighty acres were sold to Luther C. Dominick for $2,100. Henry L. Parr against Nancy Dillard one hundred and forty four acres were sold to Henry L. Parr for $700. Segress Cut by Another. In his transfer car Mr. W. S. Melcon took Deputy Sheriff Wm. Dorroh on Sunday to Mr. James Renwick's i ; place at Beth Eden, where, on that I day, Mattie Coleman cut another megro woman pretty badly with a knife. The Coleman woman was caught after | a lively chase and is now in jail to i await her trial. | dewberry County Medical Society.

McCain, of Shorter and Chicora colleges, and former teacher of Er-glish and Oratory in Leesville college, has assumed her duties as the fourth regular teacher in the Xewberry High school. Miss McCain comes to Xewberry very highly re commended. Besides ner regular | high school work she will have the ' I privilege of establishing a department ! of oratory in the schools. Miss Bess Kibler, che popular teacher of piano at the high school, -has sixteen pupils and expects others to join her class. Miss Kibler is a very strong, and enthusiastic member cjf the high school faculty, and her work will be of untold value in creating adj ditional interest in the school. ! The domestic science room at the. high school is beginning to appear very much like a kitchen. A threeburner oil stove, six single burners, ! tables, dozens of dishes, pans, cups, knives, forks, spoons, etc., mean ihat the young ladies of Newberry are to have scientific and practical training in the common domestc duties, which they will in: their lives most likely ! need to perform. j i Besides being practical, he course IVioinor a-ivori hv Miss Wall is I dO UV1U5 - |scientific and instructive. It includes 1 chemistry, bacteriology, physiology : and hygiene. The study of such comj pounds as soda and table salt is just I as valuable learned in a kitchen as in ;any other laboratory. Chemical tests for corbobydiate, proteids, and fats ! in foods, the study of the composition 1 and relative values of foods, the effects of yeast and baking powder from !a scientific poini of view are a few of the many valuable cultural, ana interesting observations in connection | with a course in domestic science. (But no feature of the course is more important than the study of dietetics, the preparation of suitable and whole- i some foods for the sick and the well. ! DESCESDESTS OF SDIS BROWN. | Honor His Memory by Erecting a ' Monument in King^s Creek Graveyard. I Editor The Herald and News: Through your paper I am writing this letter to all of the great grand child- j ren of Sims Brown, a revolutionary scout, and his wife Mary Baldrick Brown. A few months ago, one of the great grandaughters suggested to me that it would be an act worthy of tiie effort for us to erect a tomb to his and his wife's memory. I at once caught the spirit that prompted the suggestion, and we be-: gan to confer with the other great grandchildren. Our conference met with such sympathy and co-operation that the task became a social pleasure. The monument is in King's Creek grave yard, near the centre designating the resting place of their bodies until the resurrection morn. tvtv rtpnr ronsins. lets rejoice that in this small and simple way we have preserved the memory of him who offered his life that the principles enunciated in the Declaration of Independence might be maintained and that succeeding generations, might enjoy the fruits of his services in a developed country, and under a national government as now administered. Were -he permitted again to walk up and down the beaten, paths of yore, under the resplendent administration of Wilson, Bryan, Marshal, Clark, Underwood, McAdoo and the hosts of other good men, laboring in the same unselfish patriotic spirit, he would be happy in the thought that he had : fmiffh.t a eood fight, tha; he had kept i the faith, and that our country is the j control of the choicests of America's human product. These are the great grandchildren: The Gibsons, Wilsons, Caldwells, Kennerlies, Higgins, Rutherfords, McI ! Carlies and the Browns. | There are still great, great grand ' children and a few great, great, great ! grandchildren. -11 t titdnt tn sav T have j i. u an ul iiicoc a > ? a rose that has been cultivated by some of all the generations back to ! our greac great grand mother, who ! brought it across the Atlantic from Scotland, and that it would be a pleasj ure for me to give a cutting, or rooti ting to any or all of our connection. Sincrely and truly, Wilson Caldwell Brown, A Great Grand Nephew. Dr. Hon seal Prominent. i Columbia cor. Xews and Courier. I Dr. Houseal is a prominent phvsi cian and citizen of Newbrry and stands high in the medical profession. He is the personal pnysician of the gover | nor and attended him during his sickness when he was inaugurated for his first term. Dr. Houseal is a strong friend of the Medical college and is | expected to prove a worthy successor I to Mr. Williams, who was one of the | most valuable members of the board. COTTON POTRING ON MARKET. Over Ei?lit Hundred Hales in \e v. berry Saturday?Sewn Hundred Eitrlity Seven Sold. It see ns that it would be better for the farmers, the buyer, the merchant and t-.ie banker, if the cotto.i should not come in all at once. It would give all parties a better opportunity to handle it better and it would seem that the farmer would stand a better show to get a better price for it. On Saturday there were more than ' * ' - til - A. 1 X' 1 eignt nunarea oaies on me .\ewueri7 I market, and seven hundred eighty seven were sold. The wagons lined back for several hundred yards in all streets leading to the weighing plat-1 form, and some of them necessarily .had to wait until late in tne afternoon before their turn came to get to the platform. The cotton soJd represented about; 1 sixty thousand dollars. A pretty good sum to be put in circulation in one day in a town the size of Xewberry, j and the banks were kept busy getting the money and paying it out. It be- i I ing the first of October, of course, a good deal of the money went to pay j notes maturing on that day. The price on Saturday ranged from 13.65 to 13.90. Col. U. J. rurcen siai-i ed to The Herald and News the first of the week that he was paying 14 cents for cotton Wthen it was quoted . at 13.90. The seller is advised to see i Col. Purcell. Certainly with present jprices and the crop in this county the I farmers should be able to pay a great | many debts and business should be; good. | Mr. W. C. Schenckr special agent. for the government in reporting cotton ginned, states that of this year's crop up to September 2a there had . been ginned in the county 3719 bales, j and for the same time last year 4945 bales. # j HELD "RALLY DAYr AT SAIXt PAUL'S j Addresses by Mrs. E. Cronk, W. A. Hantske and Dr. Geo. B. Cromer The State, 6th. St. Paul's Lutheran church held "rally day" services yesterday in be- |: half nf tho Sundflv snhool. The con gregation overflowed the church. The first address was made by Mrs. E. C. Cronk, who spoke on 'The ( Cradle Roll?las Purpose and Object in the Congregation.'^ W. A. Hantske made a strong talk to the men of St. Paul's congregation. ! He presented the opportunity and ; need of closer fellowship of service j among -:he men of the church. Dr. Geo.. EL Cromer,, of Newberry,; was the third speaker His address1 was delivered in his \isual forcible and inimitable style.* He had a message for the parents an^ did not leave the children uninterested. Dr. Cromer said he preferred to talk to the children whose interests demanded attention in this day when the difference of 6,000,000 between 13,000.000 in the SnnHav crhnnlc: ? .rf 18.000.000 in the ! public schools of the United States I showed relatively how much the Bible was influencing the young life of the nation. Dr. Cromer believes the Bible should be read in^ the public schools for its religious influence upon 1 the children. Dr. Cromer appealed for more individual study of the Bible. It is well enough, he said, to study the Bible in groups, but the Word of God should be studied in the home, and he urged 1 i better church attendance on the part j of parents generally. He said the hand that rocked the cradle was about to turn the job oyer to electricity. Gasoline -bad been tried but that had , carried the parents farther away from i the church on Sunday. We must get j back to the study of the Bible. Box Party at Pomaria. The Box Party which had been ad- j i vertised to be held at Pomaria for the ' benefit of [he Methodist church will j be held Friday evening of this week j beginning at 8 o'clock in front of the Methodist church. ; The public is invited. Caught It In The Throat. JVIr. Frank P. Devore, the athletic ! rider of mails on route five of the ' county, came near to a very serious j ! accident in town Thursday. He was* 'on his motor, came suddenly in con-1 I | tact with a small rope stretched j ;across the street, corner of Friend and Calhoun. It was such a violent jar to him he didn't have a chance iO | show his usual agility. The rope J jerked him off and when his head struck the ground it knocked him unconscious for a few moments. No serious results beyond a bruised throat where the rope caught him. It was i one of toose unavoidable accidents I where, if there was a little careless ness on the part of tfte riaer it was excusable, as he could not sp^ the rope in time to escape, owing to the | sudden turn he was about to make.

Senator Tillman Denies Protest. Washington, Oct. 4.?Senator B. R. Tillman gave out a statement in which he says he is not opposing the appointment of Frances H. Weston of Columbia, as district attorney for South Carolina, but admits that he is \ urging the appointment of Attorney Thurmond of Edgefield. He says his agreement with Senator Smith will stand. The statement follows: "More than two weeks ago I notified Senator Smith that I had with drawn my indorsement of Mr. Sims and would turn the marshalship over to him and would confine my efforts to getting the district attorney's place for Mr. Thurmond. The two offices pay the same salary, and senior senator I thought I had a right to choose which one I would take. I i S" have not protested against Mr. Wes-I ton's appointment. I have simply urged Mr. T.hurmond's appointment, i Senator Smith and I have an agreement that we will confirm whichever one is appointed, and I will stand by that agreement. That is all there is to it." It is understood that action by the president on the attorney general's South Carolina recommendations is delayed indefinitely penaing.enorts xu adjust the trouble. It is further understood that both o? the senators are holding to an agreement whicji they made some time ago that there should4 be no dark horse in *he race for district attorney. Sen?tor Tillman says that so far as he is concerned there need be no further applicants for the marshalship, as he has turned that j place over to Senator Smith. Senator Smith declares thkt he stands by his former statement, that j he would not oppose J. L. Sims, if the j latter should be nominated. With the rcommendation of the attorney gen-" eral behind him and neither senator opposing him. Mr. Sims seems* to' Aave the inside track. While strong influences in and 91U of the delegation are working for the proposition t.o have another federal judge and marshal in the State, the chances for the consummation of this plan seem to be remote. Good Tiling to Chase. Down in Georgetown, according to the Times, they speak of "chasing the >hookworm." It seems they are chasing him and her and it and them in Newberry and everywhere for eradication purpose. Talking Pictures.
