Dr. Leroy McMurray arrived j Tuesday evening from Fernandina, Fla., for a visit to his .. parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. "McMurray, in this city.

Mr. J. W. Ardrey, who was | seriously injured in a fall several weeks ago at his home on White street, is reported to be steadily improving. This is gratifying news to his friends here and elsewhere. Mr. W. H. Faulkner, of Birmingham, Ala., spent Sunday s in the home of his uncle, Mr. T. D. Faulkner, in this city. Mr. Faulkner is a son of the late J. > H. Faulkner, once a resident of Fort Mill. Dr. J. B. Elliott left Fort Mill Monday evening for Chatham, - Va., to join Mrs. Elliott and little James Bovce. who are visiting relatives in that city. ^ During Dr. Elliott's absence he will attend a meeting of the Southern Railway surgeons to be held at Asheville. N. C. Mr. L. J. Massey has during the last few days moved his stock of dry good, jewelry, etc., * into the handsome new store room he has just completed on Main street. It is conceded by all that Mr. Massey has one of ** the prettiest store houses in this section. The farmers of this section are at present ^wearing long pft ces as a result of the continued wet weather. They have been able to plow but a few days in the last four weeks, and as this is a critical time in the cultivation of the cotton crop, they are very anxious to see the weather moderate and clear up. The Rev. W. A. Hafner, of the Fort Mill Presbyterian church, announced Sunday from | his pulpit that the open-air meetings in Confederate Park would, the weather * permitting, begin next Sunday evening and continue through the- summer. These open-air services have been held at the Park for several years and have always been largely attended. On page 4 of this issue is an advertisement for the play, "A Daughter of the Desert," a comedy-drama in four acts, to be presented by local talent at the school auditorium the evening of the 11th instant. A synopsis of the play is in hand and its presentation promises to be an event of great pleasure to the large crowd which will doubtless be present. The Times is in receipt of an invitation to attend the commencement exercises of Clemson College, which are to begin on next Sunday and continue through luesday. The baccalaureate sermon will be delivered Sunday morning at 11:30 o'clock by the Rev. James I Vance, and the address to the graduating class will be made by Senator E. D. Smith on Tuesday morning at 10:30 o'clock. ; James W. Erwin Dead. * James W. Erwin, whose extreme illness of paralysis, was noted in last week's Times, died Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock at Jus home in this city. The fun- J eral was conducted from the late home of the deceased Saturday afternoon by the Rev. W. A. Hafner, of the Presby" terian church, and the interment was in New Unity cemetery. Mr. Erwin was attacked by paralysis on Monday, May 17, while at his work in the shipping department of the Fort Mill Mfg. company. As a result he was rendered totally helpless and semi-conscious, remaining in this condition until his death. ' Mr. Erwin was 41 years of age and had been a resident of Fort Mill and the township all his life. He was married about 17 years ago to Miss Mary McElhaney, whose death occurred several years ago. To the union | was born one child, Miss Grace, who survives, together with an aged father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. John B. Erwin. Mr. Erwin was a life-long member and regular attendant of the Fort Mill Presbyterian church. He was a man of ster- i ling character and was highly esteemed by the people of this section. His death came as a great shock, and the sympathy of the entire community goes out to the daughter and aged parents in their sad loss. Fine Month for Farmers. April was a fine month for the. farmers from the standpoint of foreign demand for their products. During that month this j country exported $136,600,000 in ' breadstuffs, cottonseed oil, cot-1 ton, meat and dairy product55 and j mineral oils. The significance in ; this is ill thp -funt that it uioc I more than $58,000,000 in excess ! of the importations for the same month last year. The exports in corn were 14 times greater, while the exports in wheat, increased seven times. In cotton seed oil alone the exportations reached 45,600,000 pounds, and the cotton exports amounted to 672,000 bales, an increase of 273,000 over April last year. All the foreign money poured out in this country is not going to the steel mills and gun factories.? Charlotte Observer, Monday. FOR SALE, WANTED, LOST, FOUND.
