C., Aug. 10.?Rafe King, Shelby man in the South Carolina penitentiary awaiting an appeal from the death sentence given him after being cohvicted of murdering his young wife at Sharon, S. C., last January, has written a letter to a personal friend here, jl newspaper man, declaring* ?? "1 am not guilty of the crime they accuse me of, arjd if I get a fair trial next time I will prove that I am a man." "Newspapers cannot kill a man by talking about him?if so I would have been dead." King was high in his praise of the treatment accorded him iri the South Carolina penitentiary and expressed his admiration of the warden. The letter,, the first direct personal statement from King since his death sentence, follows: "Dear Buck: "I guess things are quiet jiow since ,they got. me in the pen. Wall, I can say I feel just like I did before the trial. 1 knew there were going to b<? lots of lies told, and there were, but that does hot mnke me guilty. . "I am able to tell the world 1 am not guilty of the crime that they accuse me of, and I will live up to it and prove to the world just who I am. I feel as good as ever. And we who are down here are getting plenty to eat and a good clean place to sleep." "We get four afternoons each week to go out on the ball park and play. We get all we want to read and smoke and can buy anything we need at the canteen out in the yard. And have plenty of company here. We have a good captain who runs the pen,, notwithstanding the newspapers. They have printed a thousand lies about me and how I am being treated. I am satisfied, so the people ought to be. I know my feelings better than anyone else, and if I get a fair trial next time, I will prove to them that I am a man, and newspapers can't kill a man by talking about him. If so, I would have been dead. " "Well, Buck, tell all my friends I am well and feeling as good as ever, and I am not worrying about how I am being treated in here. I like it much better than a jail, if I got to stay in either place for a while for nothing." Shore Is!

W. Barre, director of the South Carolina Experiment Station, and R. E. Currin. auperintendent of the Pee Dee station. Program plana call for addresses by Director Barre, President K. W. Sikes, Dr. W. W. Long, director of the Extension Service, Mr. Currin, und K. E. Hall, agronomist at the local station, and for inspection of the research work being carried on. The Pee Dee Station has at this time a greut many interesting things to show farmers, some of them representing experiments that have been underway since 1913 when the station was established. There are more fertilizer experiments there than at any other station in the Carolinas?of big interest because fertilisers constitute the biggest supply item purchased by farmers. Tobacco studies there are yielding valuable results, as are tests in breeding ami fertilization of corn, sweet potatoes, und peanuts. Boll weevil control work and cotton production research are also centered at the Pee Doe Station, research on which are based many practices now in use by farmers who are producing maximum yields and profits under boll weevil conditions. | Director Barre, Superintendent Currin and all concerned are working to make the Pee Dee Station Farmers' | Day a great day for the hundreds ;Who are expected to come, and county farm agents are gathering their clans for the caravan to Florence. Jury Holds Up Verdict Magistrate lluneycutt's court was occupied all day Tuesday trying the case of the State vs. Furman Rivers, in which the defendant was charged with trespass on the lands of his neighbor, Mrs. Watson. The trial was the outgrowth' of a dispute over a private roadway. The jury returned n verdict of not guilty. The high point in the case was reached when the jury refused to return a verdict until they had been paid off. This action of the jury was gener ally interpreted as a protest against unnecessarily long drawn out trials of minor importance. It seems there is no provision for the payment of juries for services in criminal cases in magistrate's courts. { It is claimed theso trials sometimes entail hardships on business people out of proportion to their importance. ?Chesterfield Advertiser.
