BARNWELL COUNTY HORSES
-t>—
There Will Alto be Ostrich, Automobile
and Motorcycle Races.
The committee on races for Fair
Week has arranged the racing cards for
each day and are doing everything in
their power to make the races a most
attractive feature of the week. There
are several interesting events for each
day, with good purses for each one.
Unlike former meetings, only Barnwell
County horses will be allowed to com
pete in the races. The committee be
lieves that this will be more satisfactory
to every one concerned and create
more local interest in the events.
The Sherwood course is probably the
finest natural track in the South, and it
will be put into excellent condition j
A feature of the races this year will 1
be a race between an ostrich and a fast
horse '‘Hurricane” is said to be the 1

COL HARRY D. CALHOUN
ADVOCATES A NEW PLAN
Bank Preaidant Would Buy Calvaa and
. Supply Fanner* on Credit,
Col. Harry, D. Calhoun, president of
the Home Bank of Barnwell, has made
the following suggestion to the State
Department of Agriculture:
“What do you think of the Home
Bank buying, if it can, about five or
ten carloads of young thorougbred
heifers, say three to six months old,
and let our fanners have two or three
at actual cost, payable next fall; of
course, they to secure the bank for the
amount? As 1 see it, we are gradually
losing sight of raising cattle, and the re
ports are that it’s a fact throughout the
states.
“The mere encouragement of a thing
of this kind would be, to my mind, a
great incentive to the farmers that they
may see the importance of the enter
prise.
‘ If you are in touch with cattle rais
ers, that 1 may correspond with them,
and you think the idea a eood one, the
chances are that our bank will embark
in the enterprise.”

A Reign of Terror.
A reign of murder, begun at Harris-
ton, Miss., early Sunday morning by-
two drug-crazed mulatto boys, resulted
in the deaths of eleven people, three
white persons and eight negroes, one a
woman, and the wounding of several
other people.
The trouble started at about two
o’clock Sunday morning and continued
intermittently until ten o’clock Sunday,
when Walter Jones, the elder of the
two boys, who started the firing, was
lynched just after the soldiers arrived.
His brother, Will, had been shot by
citizens earlier in the day. Soon after
wards persons who had barricaded
themselves in their homes began to
emerge cautiously from their hiding
places, and by noon the town was
quiet. No more trouple is feared.
Two Negro Shootings.
Dunbarton, Sept. 29.—In a difficulty

Rodgers. Radical made good his es
