Columbia. Special.?The decision
of the Interstate Cotton Seed Crushers'
Association at its meet in jr in
Memphis last week to put up a press
clot It plant, the enterprise to be backed
by a capital of $1100.000, part of
which was raised on the floor of the
convention, is of j;reat interest to
Columbia, which is the home of the
only press cloth factory in the South,
outside of Texas. Particularly so
since Mr. B. F. Taylor, a live wire
public spirited man. is vice president
of both tiie association and the CV*lumbia

Blood Curdling Trick.
Orangeburg, Special.?A performance
that was thrilling in the ex':eme
happened at the Edisto river

tesday afternoon. A party of gen men
had gone down for a boat
r le, and, running along in the grass
is a big three-foot moccasin. Mr.
?"rierson, a member of the party,

Fear For Cotton Crop.
Torkville, Special.?This section,
in common with the balance of the
country, was visited by an abnormal
rainfall last week and owing to the
very cold weather that prevailed considerable
apprehension is felt for the
cotton crop. The stands of corn are
the best in years past and the latter
crop is especially promising at this
time and the acreage is believed to
be the largest in the history of the
county.

j Washington, Special.?As the re- !
! suit of a consultation bold here Mon- I
lay between (inventor Ansel. K. W.
Kuckst uhl an<l Klliott Woods, superintendent
??f tiie Capitol building

to have an excellent position in Statuary

ami Mrs. Ansel were early visitors
at tlu? Capitol anil after lunching
and looking in on I In* Senate, the J
House, the Supreme t'onrt and other
plaecs of interest, tney met Mr.
i Huckstuhl and Mr. Woods und agreed
i upon tlie location id' tlie statue. i
| The point chosen is a spot near tlie
big door leading into the House
i chamber, and second front the main
aisle in the hall. This site was
chosen because tlie statue l???invr very
I la rue, will tind a natural and easy
I place in between two otlvr largo
'ones, and will look better there than
I were its surroundings smaller. Just
behind the statue is a latere window,
which will admit snllicicnt li^rlit and
which will permit the statue to he
seen at its best advantage. Mr.
Kuekstulil said that he was well
| pleased with the location and he
| thought South Carolinians who come
to the unveiling would like it. He
has promised to have it in place by
the latter part of September, and it
is proposed by Governor Ansel to
have the unveiling exercises take
i place in December, when all the nutnj
hers of the Calhoun commission will
be present and make the occasion a
brilliant success. _
The Governor, in his gallant way, _
told Superintendent Woods that he
wanted the statue so placed that the
two lady memlvrs of the commi?><"< -
f
could do tlie unvcilimr willi ease, and
lie added that there was no use to
say with jrrace heeause he was eon- ?,
lident that the latter aeeoni|>aninient ^
would not Is- laekiinr. Mr. Woods jy
said everytliiinr possible would he bI
done for the pleasure and oonvett- ti
ienee of the ladies in the party and ?
he would lend his host efforts toward j1
making the oeeasiou a suecess.
The (inventor said that he was n
more than pleased with the location
chosen and believed an ideal place h
had been found for the "llreat Xul- E
litter."
Cl
Aiken Bank Victimized.
Aiken. Special.?A clever foryory
has .just been detected in Aiken. A tl
party whose indorsement is "Henry 1<
Williams." carried a check t?* tin; n
Fanners' and Merchants' bank,
cashed it. and made irnod liis escape,
and up to tliis time no trace of the ?(
man has been found. c
The check was drawn upon (i. L.
Toole, Fs(|.. and the amount o.'i the si
face of it was .*40. Tl;.' forgery was c
one of the cleverest pieces of work n
of the kind ever seen in Aiken. The
check was drawn upon one of Mr.
Toole's checks, torn from his checkhook.
