Many Mills Working Overtime to Sup ply Demand for Goods. Anderson. S. ('.. Oct. 'S2. ? -"We are running on full time and on several nights of the', week we are running until P o'clock In order to till our or ders. We would run night and day If we had the help needed.. We haven't got the homes to accomodate that much help," declared Mr. HtJ?t. K. Mgon. manager of the Kquinox itilll. "The owners in Boston state that they could sell the output of the Kquinox tive times over ? the demand is so great for duck'' continued Mr. IJgon. "On ac count of tlu' war. the demand for duck Is brisk. There Is a mill In La C range, <?a,. which manufactures shoe duck. That mill Is getting ull the business it can attend to. A three years' supply has been bought up. The Kunqiean countries are using all kinds of duck in manufacturing tents, leggings, uni forms, etc; Practically all of the out put of the Kquinox mills has* been ship|ied to New York ami Boston for export to Knglund. Our orders have been Kngllsh orders. We shipped some stuff to jioints in Canada which is the"] same thing as to England. In addition to this, we have shipped some to the navy of the United States. The liest part of -the whole pro|H?sltion Is that the demand for our goods Is so large that the countries are glad to get the goods at almost any price asked. We con hi gladly run night and day if we c^uld. We only wish that our ma chinery was in running order. We are still installing machinery and I can't tell how long It will be before all of It is njnnlng. I supi>ose we receiv ed two or three telegrams every day about placing orders for our goods.

Once the eyes of the world were centered upon crip pled Lolita Armour, when the millions of her father summoned the famous Professor I<oreitx from Vienna to cure her of a hip disease without the knife. Now. 17-year old I?ollta. daughter of ?l.'Ogden Armour, is one of the' most graceful dancers among the younger set of Chicago. At the recent pageant at the Kavinl Club. Miss Armour was oihj of tlwv young jHNiple In the Chines' group ?whose costumes' and dancing callou forth many" encomiums.

To mftat of us a nation is merely an individual. We think pf France as a Frenchman, of Germany an a Teu ton. And we are for or "agin" a na tion JuHt an we take sides In a matter of baseball. ^ Personally, I want to see Germany win in the present conflict. I am deep ly prejudiced against the ruling. house and the crael aristocracy of Bussla (and they constitute Buaaia) and I know that England haa l>eeu needing a good aound licking for decadea. Nevertheless I can recognise the fact that Gehnany is as hypocritical ? that Germany h* aft big a liar ffs any ' oue of the other nations. Germauy pretends to be lighting for national exlsteuce; pretends that the war was in a measure forced oil her by England, who was jealous of Ger many's rapidly growing commercial power. But Germany could easily ' have avoided this conflict; could have left Austria to take her whipping from Russia. And in that case England would have kept out. (Jermany was not bound by race to Austria, for Aus tria Is made of a mongrel and varied stock. She was bound by treaty, but statesmen seem agreed that she was also bound to resect Belguim's neu trality. If she could ignore one "scrap of paper" when the necessity arose, why not another? Whatever the hidden motives l>e hind German's action, the one clear fact remains tha t she could have avoided war. (Jermany lies when she says war was necessary. England lies In the same spirit and almost the same words. She points with horror to the violation of Hel guim's neutrality, but sees no evil In Japan's violation of prostrate China's neutrality. Slie pretends to dread practical slavery to u German over lord and prates much of lit>ert.v. but what liberty had she given Ireland and India? * She sheds tears over the cruel subjugation of weak Belgulm by a mighty Germany, but forgets the Boers she. pillaged. She lays much stress, to win our love, on the antag onistic statements concerning us made by German writers in years gone by, but meantime she nonchalently inter fers with our shopping as by divine right. England is a hypocrite and a liar. France seeks sympathy because the "barbarous Teuton" is trampling down her fields. But France has been look ing and longing for this war since Na poleon III was whipped. She has nev er forgiven the Germans for taking Al sace and iAirralne from her- ? but she wants the world to forget that she j stole those provinces from Germany years before the Franco-Prussia u war that restored them to Germany. Russia gives the world to understand that she is In the war merely to keep |x>or little SerVla from being bullied, but Russia Hew. She Is in the war lo calise she thought she saw a chance to get down to "the Mediterranean. They all He. They are all lieasts ? lighting tooth and nail, blinded by prejudice and Jealousy, crazy with av artce and greed. They are light ln>f liecause they think war? because they habitually talk It. .and. .plan it,- ami dream it. Tltey are flghttng Tiecause they were prepared for It ? as the man who totes a pistol seeks an opportunity to use it or show It off. The |K?or. the Ignorant, the work Worn element of the fighting nations would never have voted for war. Yet these till the ranks and feed the can non. Well, their rotting bodies will make fertiliser for crops when the war Is over. Perhaps that will compensate the overlords. ? Fountain Inn Tribune. Fired Into House. < After a chase of more than a mile in the early hours of the mofhing, Tom Workman* wrts placed in jail Monday C. Bobbins, guard at- the |H?nTT?otlary. The negro Is sus|HH-ted of having tired Into .the home of Mr. Hiram Nettles on bis plantation at l.ugolT. on the Seaboard. The shot was rtred through a window, but 110 one was hit. although Charlie Hough and one of the Nettles boys were in the room nt the time. It Is understood that Workman and Mr. Net tles luid had some words previous to the shooting and this was the reason nsslgiHMl for the act <?f the negro In firing Into the house. A telephone call came from I.ugoff to the penitentiary and Mr. Bobbins with Ills manhunters, left at once in an automobile, and captured the ne gro. who denies the crime. S. T. Burch, who some time ago shot and killed his foreman. Cook, wis ac quitted In the Floreuce court last week.
