was 8 1-2 cts. Seed sold for 23c.

of the Darlington News.
There will be fifty three Sundays
in this year, an occurrence
at will not happen again for J
one hundred and ten years.
!
- There were no services at
the Presbyterian church Sunday,
owing to the absence of the pastor,
Mr. Hafner, who was assisting
Rev. H. J. Mills in a meeting
at the latter's church at Clover, j
- Mr. R. L. Pursley was called
to Rock Hill Thursday on account
of the death of his nephew, Clar- (
once Pursley, who died in that
city Wednesday of typhoid fever.
The young man was about 15 !
years of age.
- The clerk's sale of the Sellers
house and lot on Forest
street, as advertised in another
<mn, will take place at the
stand in Confederate Park next
Monday morning at 11 o'clock.
This is a very desirable piece of
property and the bidding for it
will doubtless be very lively.
- There is no question but that
tht* cotton crop is short in this
section. On account of the dry
weather the staple is being harve
Ted rapidly, and the gins are
kept very busy. The receipts at
this market are away ahead of
the same date last year, but it is I

gathered during the present
month.
?The injury to the right arm
c?f Mr. W. J. Stewart, which was
noted in these columns last week,
proved to be a very painful bruise
und laceration of the forearm,
but fortunately the bone was uninjured.
Mr. Stewart has suffered
much pain from the wound
but it is healing as rapidly as
could be expected.
?According to arrangement,
Supervisors T. W. Boyd and L. J.
Perry, of York and Lancaster
counties, met at Doby's bridge
on Friday to let the contract for
rebuilding the bridge which was
carried away in the August freshet.
There were several bids subnutted
and the contract was
awarded to Mr. J. M. Yandle, of
^ Van Wyck, his bid of $470 being
* the lowest.
? On account of the serious illness
of Mr. J. K. Roach, of Rock
I till, the marriage of that gentleman
to Miss Nannie Thornwell,
of this city, which event was to
have taken place to day, the 8th,
h is been postponed until a later j
date. The latest report from j
Mr. Roach's bedside was to the
effect that there was little, if
any, improvement in his condition.
?Mr. J. J. Bailes the past
week bought from Mr. John W. ,
i?aviason, of .Pleasant Valley, a
nice building lot on Main street,
adjoining that of the Mills &
Young Furniture Co. We are
told tnat Mr. Bailes will in the
near future erect a modem business
house either on this lot or
the one recently purchased by
him from Mr. L. J. Massey.
?Officer V. D. Potts, who has
been appointed by the State Audubon
Society to enforce the
g tme laws, requests The Times
to state that it is his purpose, so
far as he is able, to prevent violations
of the laws in this township.
Although the bird season
does not open until the 15th of
next month, Officer Potts nas informauon
that the slaughter of
young birds has already begun, j
It would be well for those who
have started this practice to stop
jt fit pnee and avoid trouble.

?State Superintendent of 1
Education O. B. Mrrtin has sent i
out examination questions for i
the teachers' examination, which ]
will be held on October 16 in I:
every county in the State. These <
examinations are held twice a <
year. There are usually 40 teach- i
ers to each county who stand the i
examinations. The subjects on
which they are examined are i
physiology and hygiene, peda- 1
gogy, civics and current events,
United States history, English, ' i
arithmetic, algebra and geography.
A New Bank For Fort Mill.
Unless present indications are 1
misleading, Fort Mill will have
anotheJ bank by the beginning
of a new year. It has been known |
for several months that the idea
of a new bank was brewing in I!
the minds of a number of our }
pifi'/one Knf if tnoo t K^.^4- I
viviuvaiu UUL lb II HO tllUUKIlt UfDl. |
to say nothing of the matter until
further developments. The
first real step for the establish- ]
ment of the bank came the past
week when subscriptions to stock
in the institution were taken. It!
is the purpose to capitalize the
bank at $25,000, and, although .
little canvassing has been done I:
by those behind the project, we j
are told that about half of this 1
amount has been subscribed. 1
Just as soon as the necessary
amount has been taken, the secretary
of State will be asked for j
a charter and the bank will be 1
formally organized.
It is very gratifying to note, as ;
we have beer assured, that faith
in another bank as a paying institution
is such that parties in
Charlotte as well as Rock Ilill 1
have each agreed to subscribe
sufficient to complete the organization,
but it is the desire of the
nromoters to place the stock in
small amounts in as many hands
as possible, especially to farmers,
as their accommodation will be i
the chief aim of the now inaitn. I
tion.
The establishment of a new 1
bank in Fort Mill does not mean
that there is dissatisfaction with
our present Savings Bank, for ,
that institution since its organiza-!
tion has perhaps done more for
the advancement of the town;
along progressive lines than any
other agency. To the contrary,
it is believed that the volume of I
business going out of this community
to the financial institu- (
tions of other towns amply justifies
the establishment of a second
bank in Fort Mill. The promoters
of the new bank are very
enthusiastic in their work, and
with the gratifying results thuS
far attained, it seems a foregone
conclusion that the project will I
meet with success. i

When you contract with a painter
to do your work you had better
ask him what he is going to
do it with. Don't worry so much ;
how he is going to do it and how j,
many spots he's going to get on )
the floor. Ask him what you are
going TO HAVE when he gets ;
through?after uaving him $25. I1
$50 or $75. The painter is going
to have $2 or more a day and you 1
will pay for it, the question is
what you will have for it. You j
very particularly question theI
quality of butter you buy?only
15c a pound?or the eggs?a matter
of only a few cents.
SPECIFY DEVOE to him. s
If he kicks against the price, j
pay him more. It is a case where
you get back dollars for cents
you expend. If he makes an ef- j
fort to run down the paint, tell ,
him upon our guarantee that six
hundred gallons were sold here 11
the past twelve months and you !v
can't look out your door without
seeing a specimen of it.
Be sure you are safe on Paint,
and risk the balance. Devoe is "
the standard Paint in the United
States and the best known. The
white is the whitest white and
the glossiest paint on the market. "
It has done more beautifying in I
Fort Mill than the Civic Improve-,
ment society or any other agency. '

A Tribute to Rev. Ed. Mack.
The many Fort Mill friends of
Rev. Edward Mack, of Cincinnati,
who was reared in this
olace, will be interested in the
following tribute to him in a re-1
:ent issue of The Interior, the
leading paper of the Northern
Presbyterian church:
"In the ever stronger chain
:hat ties together the Presbyterianism
of the North and South,
me link very influential, popular !
md active?if there is not too
?reat risk of confusing the metaphor
by saying it thus?is the
professor of Old Testament exegesis
in Lane Seminary, Cincinnati.
Five or six years since,
when the faculty of that semi- ;
nary was reorganized and Lane
entered upon an era of new activity
after a period of severe
depression, the problem of filling
the Old Testament chair was
solved by the selection of a young
Southern Presbyterian pastor in 1
Louisiana. Dr. Mack had already
won an assured popularity in the
Southern fellowship, and he was
followed to this new work in a
Northern city by the hearty good
will of that whole denomination.
<\nd it took him but a brief time
to win as hearty love from everybody
with whom he was thrown
into company in Cincinnati and
in the Ohio Synod. For although i
he is a deep-read and logical professor
he has nothing of the student's
besetting fault of se-!
dusiveness. No pent-up semi- |
nary campus has confined his j
powers in Cincinnati, but he has ;
freely and heartily entered into!
the labors of Presbyterianism for j
the blessing of that great city.
He has thrown himself with en-1
thusiasm into the Presbyterian i I
Brotherhood movement, which I
has had a very strong develop- I
ment in Cincinnati and its imme- I
diate vicinity. His unaffected I
friendliness is an immense capi- I

reunion of all Presbyterians in
this country is finally effected,
Dr. Mack will deserve admiring ;
recognition as a good forerunner j
of that good consummation? I
himself, as it were, a convincing j
laboratory experiment that in Presbyterianism
North and South
there are no incompatible ele- <
ments to prevent their mixing." '
Mr. W. M. Culp announces to
his friends that beginning with
next Saturday he will serve Oysters
each Saturday during the
season from the up-stairs room

5 In the first place, most of our large depositors started 5

J So far as the bank is concerned, it is just as satjsf^cto- t
