ROCK HILL HELPS Sufferers From Storm in That Community. The hrtlUlorm lliut Hwupl down across North and Month Caroll ua last week <II<1 not forget to take Itock 111)1, H. C? in it* path. Tin* farmer* around Hock Mill woke up on Tuesday morning to Hod what was a very beautiful crop pro*j>eci < in- ni^-iit I ln*fore a barren waste. To many of them starvation wan staring t)U*itt in t kit* ftuy. The* new* rapidly spread ln> to I(im k Mill and In a short (lux* the liiiHlncHM men had gathered In the Chamber of Commerce ami formal committees to look Info tlm situation. In a short tlfiic* a rej>ort whs made and another nicotinic wuh ??? I !*?< I . Mr. Ira li. Inmlap made a ?liort talk in which lie Hahl he thought tin- business tucn should help the fanners to get some thing growl iik on their land, that it would not look well for the communl t\ nor for Hock Hill to leave all the land from which the crops had Ih'cii destroyed hare till spring, ho he offer* ed a resolution that at leant $1,000 l>c rained with ydilch to buy need to give to those who were unahle to huy and thus aid them to get another crop start ed. It was explained that the town W'as hurt almost as hadly as the coun try, for many of the fartiiera were ow ing the merchants and Would he unahle to pay them, hut with this fact In view every man present sahl lei's come up 1 1 1 1 our part of the money. The $ 1 ,000 was raised In, just a little while and, ii committee appointed to huy the Meed. The wires were gotten busy hunting corn, cane, jx?a ami so y Wean seed. In view of the fact that many of the funnel's were, so dazed over ihplf loss that they hardly knew when? to begin, the Chamber of < "onunerce- vot ed to supply farm ex|>ertH with auto mobiles to go oVer the affected district ami help the farmers to get started and to make suggestions as to what to. do. Mr. Duiihtp voiced the spirit of the Hock Hill people when in his talk he sahl : "We. want to give this money freely, cheerfully and gladly," and the crowd cheered. This Is the Hplrlt of brotherly men ?the Hock Hill spirit. Several of the ?business men have given practically alTtholr time to get their neighbor fanners Ytacted. 1 >r. John T. itoddcy, presldon?jof the ('handier of Commerce, has given almost his entire time to the matter. It is no longer a matter of the farmer for the farmer and the business man for the business man. The spirit of the brotherhood of man has caught those people and bound them together. Wliile it Is hard tO see jnst now It may he that this misfortune may he the stopping stone I to something greater by drawing the business men and country people to-, get her. Some years ago Uock Mill people be gan saying among themselves that "Uock Hill was a good town." They hoo'Ii came to believe It and then they began talking it away from home. Tlley Were asked by some of the doubting Thomases to prove It. Their pride was aroused and they said we must be as good a* our word, so went to work and made it what they said,, "a good town." They have repeated that sentence so much that It has become second na ture with them and they have made their town so good that you cannot he there long till you are walking around unt houghtcdly saying, "Itock Hill Is a good town ; Hock Hill Is a good town." They have proven themselves to he good people In this Instance In rising to the aid of their brothers on the farm and that so liberally. And in the giving of tills aid they are better men now than ever before. The farmers around Itock Hill are going to raise good crbps still In spite of the hall. They possess that which makes good crops, determined man hood.? K, !?'. (irahcl, in Charlotte Ob server. NEGRESS LYNCHED.

Senator Smith made a stalwart de fense of Ids record in the .United States senate and offered to fight any man who attempted to stand between ldnr and the farmers. This offer was an swercd by volunteers in the crowd who said. "We're with you. senator, and will he glad tw help."
