Newberry is a dry county?speaking of the weather. Cotton seed was quoted on Monday at 46 cents. In Newberry everybody go$s to a fire, no matter how hot the weather is. The price of cotton is going out of sight. So will a lot of cotton goods. Hon. B. V. Chapman made a stirring address before the Children's society at Mt. Pilgrim last Sunday. There was a large crowd at the park on Friday night and all seemed to be eyjoying the evening. The Holy Rollers have moved to town and will occupy a lot near the home of Mr. Xeely Thomasson. The reporter can testify to tue ex cellence and good faste of Dr. Folk's i heme grown rice. Thanks. Doctor. Mr. Welch Wilbur nas purchased a ; Studebaker touring car from Mower's ! garage. I Cotton in Newberry Monday was quoted at 9 3-4 to H 7-S ana at the . 13,, 1 P.

Cotton sold in Xewberry 011 Saturday at 11 1-2 and there were some 250 bales on the market, a good proportion . of which was warehoused. The cotton warehouse at Little Mountain has been taken over by State 1 Warehouse Commissioner McLaurin j and is now a part of the State system. The Ladies Aid society of the Luj theran Church of the Redeemer will meet Tuesday afternoon at 5 o'clock ! with Mrs. Jas. Bowers. The statistics gathered during the ; month of August by the State board of health snow that there was only one ca^e 01 ivpnoia iever repwiwi num Newberry county. Joseph T. Hutchison says friends from various parts of the county bring him the pleasant information that he may expect a regular landslide in his race fcr county treasurer. The new graded school building a: St. Phillips has been completed and school will open about the loth of October. The Misses Brown will teach me coming session. i Mr. Joiin J. Kibler of St. Phillips has ; made enough molasses to furnish I sopping fcr his entire neighborhood? | 110 gallons to one acre and 400 bun| dies of fodder. v j A large crowd was at the park Friday night. The music was grand and nearly everybody took a dry bath on ! the ocean wave. I Mr. Mott Sheppard has moved from Silverstreet and is now residing, in : Wilson street in the house with Mr. Rucker. Mr. Sheppard is employed at : the West-Martin Co.'s store. Last year we had the buy-a-bale i movement with us. This year we have | tue sell-a-bale movement. Now watch i out for next year and see which moveI ment we will have. I The School Improvement association 1 of St. Phillips will meet at the school [ house Wednesday afternoon at 3:30. j The president, Mr. Jno. J. Kibler, rei quests all members as well as all others interested to attend this meeting. On Sunday night about 9 o'clock a negro house in New Brooklyn, belonging to Dr. Frank Hunter, was destroyed by fire. 'The house was insured for $300 and was occupied by Gist Gillilm, a negro, and his family. The city of Kinards produced a little sensation Saturday afternoon by j the news of an elopement 'The elop- j ers were Miss Lillie Johnson and Mr. I Claude (Merchant. There was a small fire at 1505 Pop- j lar street Monday morning about 10 o'clock. The fire company responded and put out the fire before much j damage was done. Caught from the roof. ! I Prof. Bushardt of the Honea Path j graded school has started a night j school at Chiquola for the benefit of the employes of Chiquola mill, which is highly appreciated and largely attended.?Honea F^th cor. Mill Life. Every bod in dewberry ho reads the scripture thought Goliath the giant was a white man until Monday after noon. What they saw then was a negro advertising soda who measured 7 feet 11 inches. A big man walking beside him looked smaller than little David. It is interesting and looks like old f times in Xewberry to see the cotton ; buyers and the cotton seed buyers go- j ing out in the streets to meet the | country wagons as they come in, to buy the cotton and toe seed. It should make the farmer feel better. I I T. M. Sanders advertised to sell su- 1 gar on Saturday morning at 20 pounds! for one dollar for fifteen minutes. He had to sell some 60 packages in that; time. It shows that .the people read the ads as well as other things in the j paper, and they -should read the ads just like other news. iThe Jalapa school opened Monday j morning with Misses Lucia Winn and Mary Wallace as teachers. A goodly iiumuer in pauuiis uia.uiiesi.eu men ui- i terest by their presence. Addresses! were made by Rev. J. W. Carson and Rev. F. E. Dibble of Newberry and Dr. J W. Folk of Jalapa. Mr. Theo Long, who is employed at E. H. Summer's furniture store, is j confined to his bed with a sore finger) which is giving him considerable trou-1 ble and pain. Dr. Ellerbee Pelham is( attending him. Mr. Long cut his finger ( more than a wek ago, but felt no ill ^ effects until last Saturday, when he^ % I I was compelled to quit work. i j The Woman's league of the Baptisl i church will have a birthday party ai the home of Mrs. W. H. Hunt at 4:^0; i in -he afternoon of Wednesday, Sep! tember At this meeting there will be a hospital shower.

Riser was acj cepted and a call was extended to the Rev. James D. Kinard. now pastor of tiie church at Greenwood. Mr. Kinard i ' ! is a native of this section of Newberry I county and it is hoped he mav be inI " I ! duced to return to his old home and his 1 old home people. i I j That kissing picnic in the park witnessed and sworn to by the Observer ! reporter, was a small affair compared ; to a similar stunt pulled off a few days ! ago. A certain young and handsome l ! couple was discovered swapping kisses j ' by alternately nibbling on a small piece of apple. iW'e venture that it; i { j would take this couple 1">0 years to' ; eat a moderate sized apple. Everyooay is complaining or tne ' abundance of mosquitoes in town. \ Must be coming from Broad river.; : There is pretty good evidence of this, i for a Newberry man says he was bit-, I ten the other night by a snaggle-tooth : mosquito which he immediately recognised as being the same mosquito that . bit him last spring while he was fish i ing at "the fill." I ! i The Newberry Motor company is a j new concern in Newberry. The mani aser is Mr. C. L. Watkins at Summer's ! garage. The store rooms of the com: pany will be under the Savoy hotel, j Mr. AVatkins will not sever his con| nection with the Summers' garage, J but will act as sales agent for the fiew ' I company. The company will handle i the !Maxwell and the Oakland cars. One j i of each is now on exhibition and they I are beauties, i | j Dock Waldrop, in some mysterious : way came into possession of a gallon i of the O-be-joyful stuff and was about j to begin enjoying his newly acquired, i wealth. But the next minute he found ; that he had eone into the hands of a ; receiver, for Policeman K. H. Cousins i received him and his gallon and I brought them before the recorder. The i trial took place Saturday morning and ; 1 Dock's medicine was prescribed as fol-; lows: $50 or 30 days. Mr. John H. Chappell states that his ! son killed a "sho' nuff" mad dog one | : day last week. The dog came from I j the direction of the city and after j ! stampeding the chickens he made a i dive for some cattle, but fortunately j there was a wire fence between, which | his dogship in his madness failed to \ see. On failing to ram through the ' i fence, he proceeded to throw a few I fits. It was then that Mr. Chappel1 j brought up his artillery and left the 1 enemy dead on the field. The Newberry college foot ball team went over to Athens, Ga., last S?atur-! day and played the college team of that J city. The score was 76 to 0 in favor j Aflinnr. f nmiytyn 4-Vl ? o urO ?

I Last week while in Columbia he drove ' his car against an old lady who was ! crossing the street. He threw on his j brakes with such force that .his car' was considerably damaged, but it saved j the old lady from possible death. She escaped with slight injuries. Mr. Liv| ingston was arrested and placed under I $500 bond. His second bump came last ' Thursday, when he lost control of his j car and ran into some logs while driv ing tnrougn t.ne Jony srreei communI Ity. His car was almost wrecked.
