Double Wedding in Gold Hill.
The home of Mr. Jack L. Kimbrell,
in Gold Hill, was the scene
of a beautiful double wedding
last Wednesday evening at 8:30
o'clock. The contracting parties
were Mr. Kimbrell's second
daughter, Miss Beulah, and Mr.
Crook M. Fans, both of Gold
Hill, and Mr. C. H. Daughtrey
finrl Miss flnrn VTnrt??ll
lotte. The marriage of the last
named couple was a surprise to
many, although the families and
a few intimate friends of the
couple were aware of it.
The couples, accompanied by
a number of friends, came down
from Charlotte in carnages and
reached Mr. Kimbrell's shortly
before the hour set for the
marriages. The ceremony was
pei^ormed by Rev. Ed. S. Reeves,
pastor of $he Fort Mill Baptist
church. The wedding march
was played by Mrs. Reeves. The
only attendants were Miss Ruth
Marsh, bridesmaid, who entered
the handsomely decorated parlor
of the Kimbrell residence with
Mr. E. Y. McClelland, groomsman.
The two couples joined
them at an improvised altar
where the ceremony was said.
After receiving congratulations
from the many friends present,
Mr. and Mrs. Daughtrey returned
to Charlotte, while Mr. and
Mrs Faris remained in Gold Hill to
visit relatives and returned to
Charlotte Friday to make their
home. The former will live at
the home of Mr. John Northey,
on South Church street. Mr.
uaugntrey is with J. N. McCausland
& Co. and Mr. Faris
with W. T. McCoy & Co.
The Tent Meeting.
Editor Times: The special meeting
being conducted by Rev. Mr.
Mitchell seems to be reaching a
number of people that the church
has not been able to get at. Up
to the present the number of
conversions, it is said, has reached
somewhere between sixty and
seventy, fourteen of whom have
joined the church, thirteen to
the Methodist church and one to
the Presbyterian. This news
must be very gratifying to the
people of Fort Mill, as certainly
all realize that a great many of
our people had lost interest in
Orvil*lf liol wr/wlr TUict
opii ituui vv \ji rv 1 1UO ICVlVtll ib
very timely, and the Christian
people should not hesitate to lend
their support, for after all, what
is the work of the church, but to
get souls into the kingdom.
This evangelist does not hesitate
to condemn vice as well as
those things that lead to vice,
and is getting in some solar
plexus blows that are really effective.
The children's service given at
the tent Sunday afternoon was
one very much enjoyed by all
present. There were a large
number of children present from
all parts of the town and when
their interest in the Savior's love
was seen and manifested, there
was hardly a dry eye under the
tent, and several broke down and
wept for gladness. The talks
given them by Mrs. Manning
and Bro. Owings were very
touching indeed, and it made the
heart glad to see these two servants
of God full of his love
manifesting such deep interest
in the young lives.
There will be a children's service
given again next Sunday
afternoon at 3 o'clock and Bro,
Mitchell requests the presence oi
every child in town. There wil
be a children's free offering, anc
they they have requested that i
separate hat be furnished then
to 3es if they do not give mor>
than the grown people.
There will also be a number o
songs by the children and soitk

A False Report From Conctrd.
A correspondent of the Charlette
Observer writing fron Coni
cord Saturday says:
"The 'Cub' baseball team ari
rived this morning from ;i trip
to Rock Hill, Fort Mill and Chester.
During its roundsdt flayed
good ball and came out neither
victors nor losers, havinc quit
even with Fort Mill and Rock
Hill, winning one game an?l los
ing one in each town."
All wrong. Concord ilayed
three games here and won onlv
one, and played two in Rocl: Hill
and lost both.
A Mississppi Cotton Picker.
Several capitalists of Gieenville,
Miss., are engaged in the
manufacture and. it is hoped th*
sale of a machine that really
picks cotton at the rate of 5.00C
pounds per day, carrying five
j rows at a time, and petting tact
! and every boll that is open.
The machine has been testec
j thoroughly and has been fomc
! to do the work its inventor, VTr,
Geo. H. Zempter, claims for it,
The machine is composed < |
light platform 5x14 feet, made oi
; l-4x4-inch channel bar steel, tnc
mounted on four broad steel arricultural
wheels, which are fillet
, on arched axles to enable tin
machine to be driven astride the
; cotton rows without injury to tu?
i unniatured part of the crop. Tie
i machine is self-nronellino- n-J.i
is guided by the operator with i
steering device similar to that oj
an automobile. On the platforrr
is mounted a 25-horse power op|
posed cylinder gasoline engine,
which, besides driving the m:
chine, operates a double exhausi
suction fan at a high rate o
speed, producing a very stronj
suction, which is applied to tht
open cotton by means of foui
flexible double suction hose, tw<
on each side of the machine
Each hose requires one man t<
operate the nozzle, which is hel<
near the open cotton boll. Th<
suction speedily removes the cot
ton from the plant, drawing i
through the hose fans, and j
large discharge flue into th<
screen receptacle on the rear en<
of the machine, from which i
can be easily removed by mean
of a door.
