Cotton was selling in Newberry yesterday at 10 1-2 cents. His honor and the gentlemen of the jury are in our midst this weeit. The cotton seed market in Newberry esterday was 40 1-2 cents a bushel. The rat reception at the college Friday night was quite a pleasant affair. Mayor Wright is announced as a candidate for re-election as mayor of Newberry. The price of cotton is up and everybody is wearing a cotton smile. Wear cotton! Business is picking up. So is every poor devil, these hard times, if no one is looking. Who would feel sore if cotton should soar, a little bit more??Not quoting Sharkespeare. The court of common pleas is in session this week with Judge Mendel L. Smith presiding. The Question before the college contingent is: Who is the guy that put the rat in brat? Mr. W. H. Hardeman is announced as a candidate for re-eleciion as alderman from ward 5. The town is full of "rats"' since college opened. The price of rat traps, however, remains the same. Saturday was Yom Kipper, or day of atonement with our Jewish friends in Newberry and all their stores were closed. The poor little dried up noodle who contends that a want ad wont add to your welfare is either badly addled or addled b^dly. rrvu . 1 ~ 4 i Lie wasuei w umdu is <x sicai institution, for she holds the destiny as well as the destination of many people in her hands. Southern Freight Engineer Bob Murrell was up before the recorder Saturday, charged with 'violating the traffic laws of the city. He was fined $5. Mrs. Dolly Long has opened a restaurant in West Main street next door to Klettner's, where she will be pleased to serve those who want to eat. f 'This hot, dry weather is hard on automobile tires. Our automobilists blow )ut thair tires and blow in their money. In the long run this produces a tired feeling. The Improvement association of the Trinity school will serve ice cream and cake at the school house on Saturday, September 25, from 4 to 10 o'clock p. m., for the benefit of the school. A successful farmer is often a man with only a small patch of cotton, but more often the poor wretch with a hole in ihis pants is made conspicuous by his large cotton patch. IMessrs. James W. Johnston, W. W. Farrow, R. C. Hamilton and Tom .C. Chalmers worshipped with the Holy Rollers last Sunday, who are conducting a rather protracted meeting near the county home. Willie Caldwell was caught riding his bicycle on the sidewalk, which is agin' the law in Newberry. The recorder punctured Willie's purse and 50 cents leaked out right before Willie's eyes - before the flow of the precious stuff could be -stopped. In Magistrate Player's court last Friday Sam Johnson, colored, was found guilty of obtaining money under false pretense and sentenced to work 30 lays or pay a fine of $25. He took the days. O-dus Barnes was tried in tlie magistrate's court Friday for violation of contract. He was found guilty and sentenced to work 30 days on the gang or to pay a fine of $30. He took the days. Barnes was represented by Chas. P. Barre. A serious accident was narrowlyaverted when Sam Johnson and Magistrate Player, coming towards town, passed over the tracks of the Southern railway just as the engineer who wis shifting box cars reached the crossing. The negro flagman was on the ground, but the engine was going at a speed too great for the flagman to keep pace. Mr. J. W. Graham of the Pomaria R. r. u. i\o. i piCKea zoo pounas 01 cotton last week in a half day. That's picking 'em some and we would gently advise the girls down that way to take notice of this young man. He will make some farmer who can do his own work. Mr. F. R. Hunter, who has charge of the (Newberry hotel property, is having the building renovated and brightened up from top to bottom or from bottom to top, just as you desire to call it, and they say that mine host Bullock is furnishing a good meal. We sometimes see an article labeled "made in Germany," or "made in U. S, A.," and last week we saw a splendid 'vehicle labeled "Rock Hill." Now what have we to send out into the Tvr\i-1H lohalor? "Vpwhprrv'" A nair oi " vi iu iuwvivu *1 v " w ^ - ? r ? overalls or a shirt would be better than nothing. Members of the Knights of Honor ^ .Newberry have received notice that the organization was in the hands of a receiver. Many persons in .\ewDerry have been in the insurance department of this organization for many years and have paid in many dollars which are gene and they have 110 insurance. The kind of rat a girl is not afraid of?the college rat. The Commercial bank advertises that it is ready and prepared to lend money to the farmer at 6 per cent on cotton stored in the warehouse. The bank will lend about 80 per cent of the prevailing price. There is no use to sell cotton below the con of production when you can get money at that rate and on long time, and oy holding the cotton off the market th? price will advance. Every one knows j the crop is short. C. E. Hall is spinner with Robert, Do\er, Jack Wilson, E. C. Tomblin and I A. H. Workman section men. J. J. (Jake) Crosby is weaver. He is an-| other of our Newberry boys who has I made good. His father, Mr. Josn Crosby, was weave room overseer when we first went to Newberry cotton mill. I was glad to see "Jake" and he actually improves with age. Was glad to j make him agent for the Mill News.? | Mrs. Ethel Thomas, writing from CresI ter in Mill News. While the fire company was putting out a fire a few days ago Sam .Counts drove his wagon over the fire hose. Now, Sam's feet may have been perfectly clean, as clean as if they had been sterilized, but he ought to havej known that he couldn't use the town1 hose with impunity, nor with anything) else for that matter. Regardless of | size, Sam got his foot in it all right, for the recorder's court decreed that he should separate himself from two dollars and now Sam says he can't afford to wear any hose for some time to come unless his wife knits 'em. Joseph T. Hutchison, the popular] manager of the Caldwell & Haltiwanger store in Newberry, says he is go-! ing to be in the race for county treasurer next summer and he expects to win. He made the race just sixteen years ago and he thinks he has waited i long enough to enter the arena again. In the recorder's court Monday morning Mr. Johnnie Nance of Mow-J pr'c crnraoro arn1 'Julian Rvan who drives an auto hack, were up for exceeding the speed limit. They pleaded not guilty, but admitted that they were playing base with twelve miles per hour. The recorder let them down easy with $2.50 each. The Statement Is False. York News. 'The liquor election has been held and is over with Xo post mortem is necessary and we da not know that what the York News thinks of the outcome is of interest to any one, but we feel impelled to say a word or two about that local option league advertising, in addition to what we have already said. We have explained at some length why we saw fit to accept the advertising, but today an article has come to hand which we very bitterly resent and we feel that we have a right to take e >'ception thereto. The Greenwood Journal, edited by a minister, conies cat with an article calculated to arouse the ire of any honest man. In Dart, the Greenwood Daner says: "iThe only thing to do, gentlemen, is to make an open, candid confession. State that you were caught and blinded by the liquor business with its millions you sold out to them, and gave them an opportunity to come into our State and seek to control the votes of our citizens by subsidizing the press. They could not find men who would dare go before the people and address them in the dirty liquor business, but they sail under false colors and use you to enter the homes of our citizens." The statement that the York News "sold out" to the liquor business and was "subsidized" is not only untrue but is an absolute falsehood and prompted by a desire to do this publication and other publications a serious and lasting injury. The Greenwood Journal says that pvprv npwsnnnpr a rrpmtin <r fhp lnr?s1 option league sold out to the liquor interests and this statement we denounce as being untrue. I We did accept the advertisement and i that was our business, but the acceptance of that advertisement did not have any bearing or influence upon the editorial columns of this paper and any man making the statement that the editorial policy of the York News ' could be influenced by any advertiser 1 misstates the facts. We would make this even stronger except that we have some consideration for our readers and ^ would not care to use language offensive to them. I It is proballe that the Journal's edr itor, being a minister, is something of > a fanatic on this subject, but minister c or not, fanatic or not, he should use care when he ilbels people who are free agents as much as he. Little Mountain High School. / The Little Mountain Graded and High school will open next Monday, j September 27. A very large enroll| ment is expected. i Addresses wiii be made by Prof. S. : i ~i. 11, o.. ; .J. ueini'n. ui .>c? ucii v Luut'ot:, on- j perintenaent Barre and Col. E. H. Aull! oi Newberry.

Fine Rice. There was on exhibition at the store of Ewart-Perry Co. on Saturday a fine specimen of upland rice. It came from the farm of Dr. J. Wm. Folk of Jalapa. It was as fine a specimen as any one would care to see. Dr. Folk will make about six barrels of this rice. Dr. Folk is one of those farmers who makes on the farm what he needs for man and beast, but he says in order to do it the farmer must stay on the job and not spend two or three days out of the week going to town. He has made some fine molasses this year also and will put up about 600 j gallons. He also has a fine garden, as this | editor happens to know, and straw- j berries he had in abundance during the j season. This is a wonderful country ! we have here anyway. You can grow I I almost anything and everything you: need for man or beast and we have not begun to realize the possibilties of i our soil and climate. An Emergency Sale. The Ewart-Parrv comDanv have on now the greatest emergency sale eve: j known in Newberry. They have a j large stock of seasonable goods and j just at the beginning of the/fal season j these goods are put on the market at aDd below cost. They owe some money and must raise it to pay their creditors. This is an old established firm composed of young men or our own town and county and they nave many i friends whom they sold goods to who i owe them money, and if these are real friends they will come forward now! and pay at least a part of what is due and thus help these young men to meet! at least a part of what they owe and J thus help them to meet their! obligations, and if these same friends need anything in the line carried by this firm they will come along and buy and take advantage of the 1-ow prices. Now is the time. Death of Miss Dessie SIMckleford. Miss Dessie Shackleford died at the! home of her aunt, Mrs, Harriet Lane, in Newberry, on Saturday night, after a brief illness from malarial fever. Miss Shackleford was a young woman of many fine parts and had a large circle of friends in the county who will learn of her death with sorrow. ?.he was '37 years of age. She is survived by two sisters and two brothers?Mrs. '7.' L. Streetman of Winston-Salem, N. ,C.; Mr. Rudolph Shackleford of Augusta, Ga.; Miss Emma Shackleford and IMr. J. B. Shackleford of Newberry. She was the daughter of the late W. M. Shackleford. She made her home with her aunt, Mrs. Harriet Lane. Interment was had in Rosemont Sunday afternoon, the service being conducted by the Rev. F. E. Dibble of the Methodist church, of which church Miss Shackleford was a consistent memt>er. A Correction. In the notice of the meeting of the I trustees held some time ago, The Herald and News stated that the committee appointed to wait on the delegation in regard to the salary of the superintendent of education was composed of B B. Leitzsey, John M. Suber and A. P. Coleman. Instead of B. B. Leitzsey the name of Dr. G. Y. Hunter should have been stated as on the committee. Mr^JLeitzsey made the motion for the appointment of the committee and named Dr. Hunter as chairman along with the other two. The Columbia Boosters Have written Mayor 'vvrignt mai they will arrive in Newberry on Thursday at 10:45 and will remain here until 11:45, when the}' will journey on toward Laurens, stopping at Kinards, in Newberry. Mayor Wright will make some arrangement for their entertainment while in the city. There will probably be some speaking by members of the booster party ad '\rayor Wright and others of our citizens. The speaking will be in front of the old court house on the public square, just on the arrival of the train at 10:45. Shealy-Cnlclosnrc. Miss Lizzie Shealy and Mr. F. B. Culclosure of the Mollohon mill village were married Sunday, the Rev Edward Fule'iiwider ollieiatlng. ill Delightful Entertainment. One of the most delightful parties of the week was at Mt.

Rutherford, where the charming daughters, Misses Harriette and .Jessie Rutherford, entertained in honor or' uiL'ir menu, .vns.-> i^sieiic' .tiauii; ui l iiiun, a lovely visiting giri. Pretty .gicen and red lights cast a soft glow over the veranda. The south end was artistically screened in with evergreens, a tastefully arranged stand in green for punch bowl, containing de. i c io u s p u nch. was gracefully served by Misses Mildred Henderson and Caro.'in Miller to the guests as'they arrived. In the parlcr tables were placed for card?, with very original and attractive score cards, the work of the hostess. During the games punch was handed around, and there was beautiful vocai and instrumental graphophone music, which added much pleasure and comfort to the guests. Later in the evening Miss Lula Besse Whitney of Maybinton gave us a de lightful treat to some music on the piano, followed by refreshments, sherry cream, fig cake and plain cake, which was most delicions. On each plate was a souvenir of the occasion, a red and white heart tied with white ribbon, "Mt. Rest, Sept. 10, '15." written on it, which was very pretty. The ladies were Misses Daisy Whitney, Maybinton; Mildred Henderson, Rlflir FIsIpIIp \Tnthis Frtinn Bcs?.e Whitney, Maybinton; -Caroline Miller.

A Real Screech Owl. You have heard of the screech owl, and yet we doubt if many persons have ever seen one. It is a beautiful bird with a face like a monkey and the most delicate and beautiful plumage. Some days ago Mr. J. S. Bickley of near Helena wounded one of these birds in the wing and brought him to Mr. Nat Gist. Mr. Gist has the bird in a cage in the rear of his office and it will be interesting to go and take a look at it. It is a mifeh larger bird than we thought the screech owl is. At the Park. There will be a band concert at the park on Friday evening. There have been just erected at the park a giant stride and an ocean wave. It is a beautiful and a restful place to spend a few hours in the afternoon and evening. fhiiroJi Notice?ImDOrtant.
