No. 112. FORT MILL. S. C- APRIL 27. 1911. Taken year in and year out, the South is one of the most prosperous sections of the country. It is the best section to do business in and the best section in wnich the law abiding, honest and industrious American citizen can make his home. It has a number of advantages possessed by no other part of the United States, by no means the least important being the presence of the negro. We say this because he is the least of two evils, and keeps out the greater. If he was not here the low foreign element that is dumped into this country would drift this way as well as through the North and East. The negro is easily managed and as a rule makes an orderly citizen, except when he goes on excursions, and then his vicious tendencies are directed toward the annihilation of his associates, and no real harm results, even if he makes considerable headway before he can be stopped. There is one crime for which his race has become notorious, and its prevention is a problem for the white people to solve. Its solution may be foun^ in modern methods of education; it may be found in exporting such criminals to some cannibal island, or in active efforts to kill thein off or stop the breed. We do not like to think about this black evil in our midst; it makes the blood boil, and on occasions causes fierce thoughts ot total extermination to form themselves for a moment in the white man's brain as a just revenge for a single crime. But there are good negroes, and they are vastly in the majority. They make the most efficient and reliable servants, if vou don't praise them. As workers with picks and shovels, or as steeldrivers with switch-handle hammers, they cannot be equaled by any race on earth. As farm laborers they are as good as the best. As a rule they are improvident, but the number of property holders among them is rapidly increasing. The Southern railway has entered upon a scheme for the improvement of the wagon roads of the South in pursuance to the policy of President Finley to encourage the growth and development of all territory tributary to the Southern system. A good roads special train will leave Mobile. Ala., shortly for a tour of the South aud will make frequent stops at points along the Southern railway for the purpose of building sample roads and arousing interest among the people on the subject. The aim is to educate the South em people in practical road building and to impress upon them the economy and benefit to be derived from fine roads. The train will carry all necessary machinery for the building of good roads and a corps of road experts. Every parent who has a son knows that at a certain tender age that boy will try to learn to smoke. He will, probably begin on corn silk, dried grape leaves or "rabbit tobacco." But be sure he will begin on something. These , things are dangerous. The writer read a short time ago of two boys in a New Jersey town who died after a peculiar illness during which their mouths and throats became so inflamed that medical aid was of no avail. The attending physician issued certificates gi^i.ig the cause of death as blood poisoning, resulting from smoking rcrn silk and dried leaves of grape fines. The lads who were ten and fourteen years old were ill less than a week. " Whether^you are a Methodist or not, you can not help admiring and commending the high standard of morality and the strict devotion to pastoral duties which the central body of that church exacts of its ministers. Every once in a while one reads in the news- j papers of a Methodist minister being expelled from the conference because j of shortcomings which are tolerated by j other Protestant denominations. Live at Home. Farming on-paper is always very easy work, and the giving of advice is also much easier than carrying into execution that advice. This we realize ; fully. But when a person learns from observation sometning 01 conumuns and how they can be improved we do not think it is amiss to give the benefit of the deductions gained by observation. We undertake wherefore to urge upon the farmers to pursue the intensive system of fanning. Reduce the number of acres and increase the productive value of the land you do plant. The large yields of cotton, com and other products that it has been found possible to produce upon very ordinary land, after a system of treatment for the enrichment of the soil, has been a revelation. There is no longer use to gather in so many acres to make the crop of former years. Scarcity of labor, as well as the increased cost of living make it necessary that something be done to meet present day conditions. It has been satisfactorily proved that the surest way is the intensive system of farming. Plant less land and make that land produce more. Then plant more food crops; raise more stock. Live at home and have a surplus of all farrh products to sell. Don't go on making the mistake of planting almost exclusively of cotton, and de- j pending upon the receipts of that for food supplies. That is just where you give the other fellow the advantage. You must have something to eat and wear, and he knows it. But with your cotton as a practical surplus, you can sell when you please and put the money in your pocket and keep it ^t home ?& jpfWd of sending it to other Sections for their enrichment Live at irome. ? Selected. \ I BiM! ^ Q 7 A SUMMERLESS "SUMMER." The year 1816 was known throughout the United States and Europe as the coldest ever experienced by any person then living. There are persons in northern New York who have beer, in the habit of keeping diaries for years, ar.d it is from the pages of an old diary begun in 1810 and kept unbroken until 1840 that the following information regarding this year without a summer has been taken. January was so mild that most peri sons allowed their fire to go out and did not burn wood except for cooking. There were a few cold days, but they wtre very few. Most of the time the air was warm and springlike. February was not cold. Some days were colder than any in January, but the weather was almost about the same. March from the 1st to the 6th was I inclined to be windy. It came in like ! n nn.nl! l./l.l nurl f /ill! 1 , n 1' /l 1" \ , a SIIICUI IIVI1 OIIU ?Triii vuv 11i\v u ivij innocent sheep. April came in warm, but as the days became longer the air became colder, and by the first of May there was a temperature like that of winter, with plenty of snow and ice. In May the buds were frozen dead. Ice formed half an inch thick on ponds and rivers. Corn was killed and the- cornfields were planted again and again, until it became too late to raise a crop. By the last of May in this climate the trees are usually in leaf and birds and flowers are plentiful. When the last of May arrived in 1816 everything had been killed by the cold. June was the coldest month of roses ever experienced in this latitude. Frost and ice were as common as buttercups usually are. Almost every green thing j was killed; all fruit was destroyed. ' Snow fell ten inches deep in Vermont, j There was a 7-inch fall in the interior of New York State, and the same in Massachusetts. There were only few moderately warm days. Everybody looked, longed and waited for warm weather, but warm weather did not come. It was also dry; very little rain fell. All summer long the wind blew steadily from the north in blasts, laden with snow and ice. Mothers knit socks of double thickness lor their children, and made thick mittens for their husbands. Planting and shivering were done together, and farmers who worked out their tuxes on the the country roads wore overcoats and mittens. On June 17 there was a heavy fall of snow. A Vermont farmei sent a flock of sheep to pasture on June 16. The morning of the 17th dawned with the tnormomeier Deiuw irie ireezmg |iunu. About nine o'clock in the morning the owner of the sheep start*.(1 to look for his llock. Before having home he turned to his wile and said jokingly: "Better start the neighbors soon; it is the middle of June but 1 may get lost' in the snow." An hour after he had left home a terrible snowstorm carne up. The snow fell thick and fast, and as there was so much wind the fleecy masses piled in great drifts along the windward side of the fences and outhouses. Night came and the farmer had not been heard of. His wife became frightened .and alarmed the neighborhood. All the neighbors joined the searching party. On the third day they found him. He was lying in a hollnw on the side of a hill with both feet frozen, he was hall covered with snow, but alive. Most of the sheep were lost. A farmer near T*?wksbury, Vt., owned a large field of corn. He built fires. Nearly every night he and his men took turns in keeping ip the fire ami watching that the corn did not freeze. The farmer was rewarded for his tireless labors by having tin* only crop of corn in the region. July came 111 with snow and ice. On the 4th of July ice as thick as window glass formed throughout NewEngland, New York and in some parts of the State of Pennsylvania. Indian corn which in some parts of* the east had struggled through May and June, j guve up, iroze and died. To the surprise of everybody August proved the worst month of all. Almost every green thing in this country and Europe was blasted with frost. Snow fell at Bamet thirty miles from London, on August 3d. Newspapers received from England stated that 1?16 would be remembered by the existing generation as the year in which there ; was no summer. Very little corn ripened in New England. There were great privations, and j thousands of persons would have per- 1 ished in this country had it not been for the abundance of fish and wild game. I The Circuit Court. Yorkville Enquirer. Friday. In the case of Belle Guntharpe and Son Crawford, being tried for assault and battery with intent to kill when the last issue of The Enquirer went to press, the jury found a verdidt of not guilty as to Son Crawford and guilty as to Belle Guntharpe, who was sentenced to the penitentiary fur two years. Henry McMackin, who was charged with shooting into a dwelling house, was convicted of his guilt and sen tenced to tour years on tne cnaingang. Joe Sumter, the negro who burglar- j ized the office of Mr. J. L. Sowell re-j cently and who wounded Mr. Sowell, while receiving a wound himself, plead guilty and was sentenced to three years on the chaingang. The jury took the papers in the ease of Grover Porter, charged with forgery on Tuesday evening and returned a ! verdict of not guilty. Will Hammond, white, of Fort Mill township, plead guilty to the charge of burglary and larceny, and was sen: tenetd to pay a fine of $100 or go to the chaingang for six months. He | paid the fine. The next case taken up was that of j the State vs. C. J. Miller, charged with j assault and battery with intent to kill. , : The defendant is a policemen in the i city of Rock Hill and the prosecuting witness is Hub McKadden ot Rock Hill. They undertook to set up tha. the poj liceman attacked the defendant without legal justification, beat him with 1 a "billy" and threatened his life with i a pistol. The defendant plead self-dej fense, claiming that he went to the j prosecuting witnesses' place of busi: ness for the purpose of serving a summons, and that aftci the summons had been served, prosecuting witness followed him out of the door and used abusive language, whereupon plaintiff undertook to arrest prosecuting witness for disorderly conduct. Prosecuting witness made toward his desk where the defendant had reason to believe he kept a pistol, and deft ndant wit| ness followed him, beating him with his billy to prevent prosecuting witness from getting pistol. There was a good deal of conflict in the testimony, the prosecuting witness testifying that McFadden had done nothing whatever to provoke an assault. The case was taken up on Wednesday morning and consumed all of Wednesday, the papers not going to the jury until about 10:30 o'clock yesterday morning. The jury remained out several hours and ' yesterday afternoon returned with a verdict of assault and battery of a high and aggravatad nature. Sentence was suspended pending a motion for a new trial, which will be argued tomorrow. During the morning hour yesterday, Dob Ailison, charged with the murder of another negro in a dance row near King's Mountain battle ground recently, was allowed to plead guilty of manslaughter and was sentenced to three years on the chaingang. Robert Miller, charged with the burning of Mr. R. H. Peacock's bam, near Catawba Junction, plead guilty of arson and was sentenced to ten years on the chaingang. Claude Ratterree was tried on the charge of selling intoxicating liquor (cider) in violation of the dispensary law. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty. Charley Turney, tried on the charge of obtaining goods under false pretenses with intent to defraud, and in accordance with the instructions of the court, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty. R. K. Lowry was tried on the charge of disposing of crops under lien, and the jury returned a verdict of not ?uisvjr. The court this morning took up the case of George Webb and Sam Fewell, charged with the murder of Will Barnett at a negro dance at Tirzah, in the house of Wade Whitlock near Tirzah, on the 10th of February last. From The Enquirer of Tuesday it is learned that C. J. Miller, convicted of assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature, was sentenced to six months or $100 fine. He paid the fine. George Webb and Sam Fewell were convicted of murder, with a recommendation to mercy, and were sentenced to I life imprisonment. News Items From Gold Hill. Correspondence Fort Mill Times. Mr. Sampson Broom, whom we men-1 tionid some weeks ago as being quite i sick, is still living, but is very low. Owing to the long wet spell the 1 farmers have had quite a lay-off, but the weeds and grass failed to notice the wetness and have just been moving up, which gives promise of making things interesting later on. The Misses Inez and Myrtle Smith and May Coltharp of Winthrop college spent from Saturday evening until Monday evening with their parents in this section. They were accompanied by three or four of their school mates. Our friend Faulkner is mistaken about that snow of '49 falling on the 10th of April. It fell on Sunday, tir; 15th. Now, brother Tom, we know whereof we speak, because we were there. We will also mention some other April freezes: On Saturday, April 2fi, 1FT3, this section was visited by a killing frost. IVaches that were near halfgrown w< re frozen solidly, and wheat that was in bloom was killed to the j ..?/nn.l A nrl u/ruin /in Mnnrlnv Anri] I ?ivfi?uw. r*" 19, 1875, we had another frost that killed the wheat to the ground. We are proud to say that there is still promise of some fruit. The prospect for peaches seems to be better than for appks. The small grain crop though late is looking fairly well, and the farmers are just moving up preparing their lands and planting corn and cotton, and while the prospect is not what we would wish, let us lay aside every fear of defeat, every thought of ill will for our feliowman, look the future in the face with a glad heart and go forward to make 1911 the banner year of our lives. "S." Gold Hill, April 25. The News of McConnelUville. McConnellsville, April 25.? Work is being resumed on the house Mr. K. F. Lee is building on Church street. This new cottage will add considerably to the already neat appearance of the street. Mr. J. T. Crawford has completed his dairy. He has put in electric lights and has everything arranged in a thoroughly up-to-date manner. The pupils of our school are preparing now for an oratorical contest to be held some time soon. A prize has been offered to the pupil who delivers the best original composition.

By way of celebrating the twentyfifth anniversary of their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Williams entertained, a few days ago, some of their many friends. Their married friends were received from 3:30 to 6 p. m., and the "younger set" from 8:30 to 11:30. A sumptuous wedding dinner was served in true Southern style. Mr. and Mrs. Williams received numerous handsome presents as a token of the sincere esteem in which they are held. Miss Martha McCleave has returned from Perry, S. where she has been teaching. Prohibition in Maine. Perhaps no election of the year 1911 will be watched more closely than that one which is to be held in Maine next September. For fifty years Maine has been a dry State. At the same time it j has been a sign board for the prohibitionists and antiprohibitionist. the one pointing to Maine as a State where prohibition ; has succeeded, the other pointing to it as an example where prohibition has : failed. The vote comes from the Democratic party. Prohibition was discussed at the hustlings and the Democrats pledged themselves to re-submit to the people at a bv-election the question of constitutional prohibition. The pledge will be redeemed when the referendum is held next September. Maine has existed so lonir under nro hibition that it would seem strange and foreign under anv other banner. She has received deputized committees from all over the United States into her borders that they might study and judge of the success of Maine prohibition. Delegations from the old world have come, sent by Kings and Queens to inquire into how this State handled the whiskey question so skillfully. The last delegation sent returned an unfavorable report of conditions, stating that while few men dealt in the traffic, great numbers of women had become keepers of "dives," which from the standpoint of morals seemed to the people of the old world to be worse ) than conditions in their own homes. Between now and September there will be something doing on the part of both prohibitionists and whiskey men, and the arguments pro and con that will be held on this subject would fill a little book. Right will prevail, we may be sure of that. It may be eclipsed for a while but in the enuit will shine.?Exchange. Miss Lillie B. McConnell, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. S.

C., that a citizen of that city has invented a machine which means destruction to the cotton boll weevil. The machine, which is known as the "H. H. H. cotton boll weevil destroyer," is mounted on a two-wheel carriage and is run by an 18-horse-power gasoline engine. Five switches protrude on either side, designed to strike the cotton plant, the shock knocking the boll weevil to the ground. Two suction pipes are in the rear of the machine beneath a 24-inch fan, making 2,000 revolutions a minute. Leather lips are attached to the ends of the pipes, drag?ing the ground lightly and the powerul suction is intended to draw the weevil up through the tubes and against a wire screen to their death. IN SWEET MEMORY OF SAMUEL ALEXANDER KELL "God's finger touched him, and he sleeps. "?The boy, bighearted and beloved, is now but a sweet memory.

"The air is full of farewells to the dying and mourning for the dead." i I.et us stop for a moment in the fevered rush of life and lay an immortelle uj>on the early grave of Samuel Alexander Kell ?the devoted husband, i the faithful father, the tender, loving son and brother, the true s.nd trusty friend. Loyal and lovable, genial and gentle, his was a knightly soul. His sympathetic, sensitive nature, united i with the magnetism of his personality, ! attracted all with whom he came in contact, and every acquaintance be- i came a friend. We who knew him best loved him best. \Ve mourn for him "the doubly dead in that he died so young.' In his adopted home, Clinton, North I Carolina, he was highly esteemed as a | gracious, kindly, courteous gentleman, and his passing has caused the keenest regret. Fort Mill, the home of his j birth and happy childhood, was ever i most dear to his heart, and it was one , of the dreams of his life to be one day able to return there. In his quiet way he was a Christian man, and with his young wife, was to have joined the church at Clinton the I Sunday following his death. We sor-1 row not without hope. Beyond the blessed battlements, bevond the shining stars, the mystery of heaven's stormless happiness folded to his now tran- ; quil breast, our darling is waiting for j us. In this comforting belief we patient- ; ly await the fragrant breath of the Sternal Morning. 'Tis only a littly way, It is not far To that dear home, Where my beloved are; ? And still my heart sits Like a bird upon the empty nest, And mourns its treasure gone ? Plumed for the flight And vanished quite. ?

Dear Saviour, take the burden off I pray?and show me Heaver is but a little way, A little, little way. This sentence I repeat, Hoping and longing to extract Some sweet to mingle with the bitter. From thy dear hand I take the cup, Oh, Lord, Although I cannct, cannot understand? j And tho' it seems so very, very far To that pure home where my beloved I are, I know, I know it is not so!
