Eharged With Death
I Of Own Mute Son
After Dr. R. C Brown had teati|hid
that in his opinion Henry Fraa
eight year old negro boy had died
v being drowned the coroner1! jury
E the case of John Fraser found
Eat the boy came to hia death in this
Eanner. Ah evidence in thia caae
K , i, \ waa begun aome time ago inE
that John Fraaer drowned hia
B^ung aon who waa deaf, dumb and
Bjppled, the defendant ia being held
E jail and will no dovlbt be indicted
E>r murder when the grand jury
Beets next month.
| The coroner's jury met at Pleasant
G alley for the second time on TuesIlay
to hear the opinion of doctors
who had examined the child's lungs.
The first meeting of the jury was adjourned
in order that the body of
the boy who bad been buried might
be exhumed and the lungs examined.
Water waa found in the lungs indicating
that the boy came to his death
by being drowned
After the inquest was held of/leers
sought to get John Fraser to feign a
confession acknowledging his guilt
but when the paper was presented
to the defendant he ^refused to sign.
K. vide nee given by Fraser's wife
.,t the first inqu^t tended to show
|U.(t this negro drowned his son by
E ) Id in.-' the child's head in a lard can
Bilkd with water. The wife said that
. :: believed the bay came to his
death in this manner as she saw her
husband prepare the water but she
could not swear thai sh<f saw her
husband drown her son. ..She was
iot in a position to see what was
done and as she la an invalid she
could not move about.
Although Fraser refused to, sign
|ar affidavit admitting his guilt he
confessed to Sheriff Dabney in the
presence of witnesses that he drownI
the boy. After making this con- |
fission the affidavit was prepured
But Fraser refused to sign. He read
ho statement over and was well a
are of what the matter contained.
His attitude makes speculation rife
B to what defense, if any, he will
present when the case comes into
Kourtjfr-Lancaster News.
Reports indicate the loss of twentyBi-.e
fishermen by the sinking of two
Eishiug vessels off the coast of MexW~

Your Corn Crop
LIKES
IS it just another corn crop for you this
year, or have you decided to join tha
ranks of farmers who make a crop that really
is a crop? Now is the time to decide ... and
you can just as easily make a good crop. No
luck to it... just one single rule for success.
Chilean Nitrate of Soda is the difference
between a good corn crop and a poor one. A
side dressing with this nitrate fertilizer
(the only natural nitrate in the world)
greatly increases the yield. Makes larger m
ears with more corn per ear and xnorc ear#
per stalk.
A South Carolina Farmer
J. Wade Drake, Anderson, S. C., uses 200
lbs. Chilean Nitrate as a side dressing for
his corn crop. In four different corn-growing
contests he has averaged 113 bu. per
acre with this fertilizer. Drake says it
will pay up to 400 lbs. per acre, even when
land has been planted in cover crops.
Chilean Nitrate is not synthetic. It is mined
and refined in Chile, largely by Atkierican
capital, brought here in American ships and ~
sold to American farmers at a low price.
Son your local (Unlrr. If he dor? not carry Chilean
Nitrate, he can eaaily f?ct it for you.
