A Fine Plantation. The following from the Harnett (N.C.) Reporter will be of interest to Mr. Thompson's many friends in Dillon county: In company with Mr. J. E. Bryan, of the Ricks-Bryan Co., we had the pleasure last Friday of spending the day as the guest of Mr. R. H. Thompson, at "Hillside Farm"! bis beautiful plantation in Stewart Creek township. NVe wish every i farmer in our county could visit this farm and see what results can be obtained from the proper culti-] vatiou of what is known in this section as "sandhill" land. This fine body of land which ten years ago was considered almost worthless,, has by intelligent cultivation been made to blossom us the rose. It is estimated that even with the unfavorable season for the pust few weeks, Mr. Thompson will make an average of a bale of cotton to the acre and from 50 to 60 bushola nf r?nrn fr? t *?/??*** ?? 1?-??* that formerly has not produced iuefourth of that amount. Mr. Thompson lives in Richmond but spends much time on his plantation. He is a native of Marlboro county, South Carolina, perhaps the finest farming section in the South and to hear him, with his valued experience, speak of the possibilities of our soil, is indeed gratifying and encouraging. The coining into our section of men of his type is of incalcuable value to our county. Mr. Thompson attributes much of j the success of his efforts to the faithful and efficient service of his superintendent, Mr. H. B. Woodlev, | with the able assistance of Mr. S. J. Allen. We were delightfully entertained at dinner by Mrs. Thompson and Mrs. Woodley with true Southern hospitality. "UOOD TIMES ON THE FARM." (Two-Dollar Prize I.etter.) I seldom write for publication, but when 1 noticed your suggestion in The Progressive Parmer of recent date, decided I'd send in "my piece." Having spent my life on the farm, the daughter of a long line i of farmers, I contend that after all1 the old farm isn't so bad. Really,! under favorable conditions I believe it to be the most lelightful place on earth. We work hard, to be sure (who does not these stren- j uous times?) but we have our compensations: God's free open coun- : try, the green of the fields, the matchless orchestra of the birds, and withal that sense of restfulness that comes only to those who can commune "with nature in her visible forms. Of course, as do others, we have our limitations and ambitions unrealized. I have read with great pleasure of your ideal of the farm life beau- ' tiful and am glad to express my appreciation of your efforts for the making of happier, healthier, saner people on the farm. We are, really moving along ? slowly, maybe, along some lines, but surely. I've noticed many farms that hitherto "** worn-out or run-down, are now in fine condition, houses painted and a general appearance of thrift. 1 do not say, as I formerly did, "That ; mac is a Yankee,"?rather, "That man reads The Progressive Farmer." Father Time has wrought wondersi certainly, but I like to think that I he has been especially kind to us of the country. Our schools, for example; why they have libraries and the children are acquiring a love for good books, which is cer-, tainly a great stride in the right di-: rection. I fancy a future Gray may not confine his "mute inglorious Milton e" altogether to the country. ! Well, I said we had our compen- i nations, we farmer women. You'd think so, too, city cousin, if you 1 could be with us when they bring in the big watermelons these cool mornings! Don't you know how tnev pop and almost burst open i when you begin to cut them! And grapes are ripe. "Big meetin's" in progrees all around. If we can get the old horse hitched up, what a day we'll have. First the drive? that is fine; goldenrod is waving over the hill; there the cattle are resting; there is an exquisite pur-1 pie haze over the distant pines, j and lar away one lone cow is breasting the breeze; everywhere peace, ieace. What a joy to be alive! 1 mayn't tell cf the day that follows for that would take space. But here I want to make a plea for more re l&xail'Mia and cry a truce to that which "makes Jack a dull boy"? all work and no pleasure. Truly, what shall it profit us if we do serve elatarate dinners, dust, sweep, scour and polish, if the golden day is ldst in moil and toil? We have only aching bodies and nerves "on edge" for our pains, while *r.e glories of sunrise and sunset have passed unheeded and the birds have sung to unhearing ears. Ella V. Knott. Stovall, N. C. SHOT A FRIEND BY MIST ATE. Boy Mistakes Dady Visitor Fof Burglar. Florence Times. A most lamentable tragedy occurred in Timmonsville during the night last night. A small boy, hlMUno- V* ^ J %t ...1UB1UB niai KC WHS UVICI1UIIIK his home, was the cause of the wounding of a well known young lady. The lady was Mrs. Julia Oakley, and she is now in the Florence Infirmary, not expected to live, with a horrible gun shot wound in the abdomen. The boy was the nine year old on of Mr. George Evans, a resident of Timmonsville. Mrs. Oakley, . who is a daughter of Mr. Henry Oakley, who lives within a mile or two of the town, was spending the night at the CiVani home, and having occasion to go into the yard during the night she went noiselessly, and the suspicions of the boy aroused, there having been a number of reports of robberies recently. He fired towgrd her In the dark with the fatal effect above reportSi ' ed. n The dreadful error was soon discovered and everything in the world i done to relieve the sufferings cf the young lady. g This morning Dr. Eaddy brought f her to the Infirmary here, where t she could get constant and skilled attention. The tragedy has cast a gloom i . over Timmonsville, and the deepest \ sympathy is felt for the boy who . caused the sad tragedy. SKA GIVES IT ART TREASURE. ! i c a Divers Off Tunis Recover Master- | ^ piece of Ancient Greece. j i Splendid treasures of art whicn |g sank to the bottom of the Mediter-! i ranean 2,000 years ago, when the galley bearing them from Greece to Home was wrecked off the coast of Tunis, are being brought to the surface in dazzling quantity by divers in the employ of the French government. Though the treasure trove up to the present time has , scarcely been more than scratched by those engaged in wresting it ,from the grasp of the sea, the statues and other objects recovered indicate that the galley's cargo, if recovered entire, will be of a ivalae that will put in the shade all ! other such finds in history. The sunken ship lies in I water 100 feet deep about three! miles from the coast village of Malidia in Tunis. There it was dis covered four years ago by native' sponge gatherers, who, in the course of their labors in the sea's depths, ' stumbled across the wreck. The j tales they told about their discov-' ery induced Mr. Merlin, director of j arts and antiquities in the French colony of Turuisia, to put divers on v the job of recovering the treasures j described. jt in an .Merlin has sent four ex-j ^ peditions to brii^g these treasures | a to the surface. The first two ^ which went out within a short me after the original discovery, e were so remarkably successful as ^ to inspire the most sanguine hopes for the future. : p TOM) OF JOHN W. GATES. e | fl When he Gambled he Preferred to y Gamble liig. | b Mr. Gates' last office was in the | Trinity luilding. He called liisij; firm Charles G. Gates & Co. Oth- ' eis termed it "The house of the ^ Twelve Apostles," as a dozen partners were in it When the stock markets closed for the day a card game usually began. Gates was ^ immoderately fond of all games of ti chance, particularly card games, ^ and probably more anecdotes have been told of his daring and generosity in poker than have fallen .. to the lot of any other man of these times. One day there were w only three in the office to take hands. A young man of good fain- g ily, but not wealthy, came in. "Sit down," said Gates. "I hate to play with a dummy." ^ "How much a point do you play?"j 1 " iiokcu me new comer. 1 f Fifty." J "I can't afford it. Twenty-five is ^ a big game for me." t] "Well, make up the rubber. We'll p play for twenty-five," said Gates dejectedly. ? The young man played well, had s luck and won. The next day he got a check for $13,000, and took ^ it back to Gates, saying that he had t' won $130. j, We were playing for 25 cents a ^ point, weren't we?" he asked. n "We were playing for $25 a point," said Gates. fj He woulu hear no protests and ordered the young mail to go :<nd ^ cash the check. Once when Gates was on a tour iu the west he came to a town where a boom was needed. The jj chamber of commerce hearing of Gates' liking for poker, had made up a pot of $25,000 to give him a j( game, but Gates was impatient; he jj didn't want to play that day. The u merchants were aggressive in their n hospitality. Finally lie yielded. w "I haven't time to play poker," A he said. "But I'll tell you what 1 r, will do. I shake you dice, one toss, a for the bundle." in everything Gates did he figured spectacularly. He paid $40,- a 000 rental for his suite at the Wal- 'c dorf, and Kichard A. Canfield had the ceiling of his gambling saloon c lifted so as not to restrict Gates q when he played fare. He tried to n corner wheat, and paid $5,000,000 0 for information as to the difficul- ^ ty of the undertaking. ^ After his withdrawal from Wall 11 ssireei uaies aevoted his attention to industries in Texas, where he e made his home. As an exponent of r the Texas Oil company, capltaiized at $36,000,000, he became a j formidable adversary of the Stand- v ard Oil company.?New York Sun. j The Death IMce. I ??? H J There is shown in the Hoheuzol- t ; lern museum, a gift of the empori er of Germany, the "death dice," with which one of his ancestors de- r cided a difficult case in the sev- t i enth century. Their history is an g i interesting one. f A young girl had been murdered, i Suspicion fell upon two soldiers, 11 J * " I luupu una Aiirea, wno were suiiors t for her hand. Both of the accused \ men denied their guilt, and even ( ! torture failed to extract a con- < fession from either of them. The j i I Elector Frederick William decided - to cut the knot by means of the 1 dice box. The two soldiers should ; c throw for their lives, and the loser ' should be executed as the murderer. 1 The event was celebrated with great t pomp and solemnity. t Half had his chance first and e threw sixes, the highest possible 1 numbber. The dice box was then j given to Alfred. He fell on his knees and prayed aloud: "Almigh- 1 I ty God,Thou knowest I am innocent i PfVltPPt mo I hoaoAoK - ...v, a. wvovcuii i arc; I Then he arose to his feet and ' threw the dice with such force that s one of them was broken. The whole j one showed six, the broicen one al- < so gave six on the larger portion, r and the fragment split off showed c one. This was a fragment of 13, r one beyond Ralph's throw. The au- f diencc held Its breath In amaze- t nent. "God has spoken!" cried the trince. Ralph, appalled by what he re- ai tarded a sign from heaven, con- tt eased hie guilt and was sentenced ui o death. a) KITE CARRIED OFF CHILD ^ iVhen Little Sister Became Airship Anchor, Overboard Sne Went.

Twen- ha y-six persons were killed and over ixty injured to-night, when a mo- nc ion picture film exploded in the th 'anonsburg Opera House. a-s Immediately following the flash F! f the film, some one shouted rc Fire." There was a rush for the se xit and in a moment there was a na ,rritliing, screaming mass of hu-j lanity, ten feet high in the narrow j tairway leading to tne entrance of! he theatre. Most of the dead were mothered. A majority of the au- ! ience was composed of women (11 nd children. In the fierce rush or the exit they were thrown from heir feet and trampled upon, j ithers were thrown upon them and t j hose at the bottom of the human ile were suffocated. When two volunteer fire depart-i tents reached the theatre the | _ gni siaggered them. Tho6e of Wi lie audience who had escaped rom the building and other Bpecta[>rs drawn to the scene were rushlg about the front of the build- I? ig.

Within a few moments J1 fter the film flashed and the pan- ! * ; started, the fire whistles were lown.

An increasing number of farmers re coming to the appreciation of le merits of the telephone as a seful adjunct to the farm, both in i industrial and a social aspect, i the seven Southern States of 1 labaman, Florida, Georgia, North i arolina, South Carolina, Virginia id West Virginia there are now 5,4 68 farm telephones connected ith the Southern Bell company, r under contract. Georgia leads j ith 7,283, showing that her farm's are indeed progressive. Howany has Florida? She occupies the Jttom of the column with a beg irly array of 118 farm telephones. During the first five months of lis year there were added to the umber or farm phones so connect1 6,222, of which 2,092 were in rest Virginia, the number on Janiry 1 having been 20,246. Six ! the states enumerated added ore phones to their farm conjniences. Again we find Florida , the list with a blan, all her begirly account of 118 phones having jen erected during the previous Jars. Evelyn Harris, the special agent ! the company, from whose en-1 rely impartial report in a communation to the ivaleigh, N. C., Proessive Farmer, written in response a request for information, we rote, says, in explanation of the an under which they co-operate ith farmers to enable the latter secure telephone service in their >mes. "In each case the farmers living ong a certain road, or in a par-! [ ular community form themsplvps to a conii Viy, build the line, buy e equipment, and connect this line ith our nearest telephone exchange toll station. Whence the line is >nnected with one of our ex- j langes we make a charge for the rvice based on the local rate. This i large is divided equally among the' rmers, and the cost to each rmer is rarely more than 50 cents r month. This entitles them to rvice with all subscribers in ir exchange, and they talk with ,ch other by ringing on the line, ley also have access to our toll stem by payment of the usual large for long distance messages, id in practically every case the is so constructed that satisfacry long distance service is post>le to very distant points." The plan looks like a fair one to l parties concerned and seems to ive so impressed quite a number Southern farmers.
