The Herald has for sale one 10inch
hand Franklin round hole perforator
which is all right in every
way, no breaks and in as good fix as
a new machine. Only reason for
selling is we need a larger machine.
First offer of $15.00 takes it. If not
satisfied, your money back if you
want it. Write us quick, as it will
% not stay on our hands long at this
price. We will prepay freight if
|:> - t check accompanies order.
! '* Every Democrat should look up
his registration certificate and tax
receipts and be prepared to vote in
the general election next Tuesday.
Remember you took an oath to support
the nominees of the party, and a
man who fails to vote is just as culpable
in our opinion as one who supports
an independent ticket. We can
see hn difference between failing to
support the ticket by not voting and
voting against it, no matter if there
is no opposition.
' Maj. J. C. Hemphill, editor of the
News and Courier, is to be congratulated
on the able fight he is making
in regard to the election of trustees
for the New York Life and the
Mutual Life Insurance companies,
and he deserves the hearty thanks of
policy holders in these companies.
The editor of this newspaper is so
unfortunate as to have a policy in
'i, . * the Mutual, and we sent on ouij ballot
last week to Richard Olney, chairman
of the policyholders committee.
SWe voted for the united committees'
ticket, too. The company sent us a
ballot with all names stricken out except
those of the administration
ticket.
Short News Paragraphs.
George Kenny, one of the negroes
who murdered H. G. Stello, guard
on the Charleston county chain gang
a few months ago, was tried recently
and sentenced to be hanged on the
16th day of November.
Dr. Ethan W. Foster, a young dentist
of Union, shot himself just above
the heart with a pistol in a hardware
store in that city last Monday afternoon.
He had gone in the store to
make some purchases and he says his
pistol went off accidentally. He is
seriously but not fatally wounded,
and is getting along as well as could
| . i be expected.
In Florence last Friday afternoon
:a young white man named Gordon
was wounded in the face by a stray
shot from a 22-calibre rifle. He was
sitting on the back steps of his
father's residence at the time. The
bullet struck him in the left check
and went through his nose, coming
out on the opposite side of his face.
Another case no doubt of the careless
handling of firearms by small boys.
# Prof. W. F. Moncreif, of Centenary
college, Jackson, La., and Rev.
C. C. Miller, the president, had a
fight in faculty meeting on Satur
" i ji
:/? day, the president using a cnair ana
the professor a knife, stabbing the
president six times, causing injuries
that may prove fatal. Prof. Moncrief
was for several years superintendent]
of the city schools of Anderson,
S. C., and afterwards professor
in Winthrop college.
On account of his health, Rev.
Louis J. Bristow will retire from the
% Baptist Press, and will move to
. a Anderson county, in the foot hills.
He has severe throat trouble, and
his physician advises an outdoor life.
* . - Mr. Bristow will preach twice a
month to a Baptist church in that
county. The Press will be moved to
Union, Rev. L. M. Rice of that city
having bought an interest, and it
will be published there in future by
. Revs. V. I. Masters and L. M. Rice.
Mr. Bristow's many friends hope he
will soon regain his health.
> Hog Eats Hands of Little Child.
Gaffney, October 29.?A little
child of Mr. and Mrs. Elisha Scruggs,
while lying in bed this afternoon,
had both hands and arms eaten and!
lacerated by a vicious hog, which,
in some manner, managed to get
into the bed where the child was
lying.
Dr. Allen, who has just returned
from the Scruggs home, says that it
is probable that the child will lose
both hands.
The child was alone in the house
at the time, the parents being out
looking after something about the
lot. The child was a boy about two
years of age. The Scruggs live
something like twelve miles from
Gaffney.

SHOT BY GAMBLER.
Aged White Man Perhaps Fatally
Wounded by a Negro.
Greenville, Oct. 29.?This morning,
seven miles from here, an aged white man
named Hudson was shot in the head and
perhaps fatally wounded by a negro gambler,
whose name is given as Wright.
Wright and companions were eugaged
in a noisy game near Mr. Hudson's home.
The latter went to the place where the
game was in progress, and when he insisted
that the disturbance cease, he was shot.
Details of the affair are meagre. Wright
is in jail here.
Taken as directed, it becomes the greatest
curative agent for relief of suffering
humanity ever devised. Such is Hollister's
Rocky Mountain Tea. 3oc, tea or
tablets. H. F. Hoover.
Withdrawn From Circulation.
A lawsuit down at Yorkville has unearthed
the fact that there has been in
the possession of Miss Mary Scott at the
home place of the late J. R. Scott, a box
containing $3,000 in cash for a quarter
of a century. Miss Scott gave up the
box after legal proceedings were instituted,
and she thought she had to do so.
It had been withdrawn from circulation.
This money has been a source of great
annoyance to Miss Scott and has not
done its part in bringing the necessities
of life to needy men and women.?Gastonia

FAMOUS STRIKE BREAKERS.
The most famous strike breakers in the
land are Dr. King's New Life Pills. When
liver and bowels go on strike, they quickly
settle the trouble, and the purifying
work goes right on. Best cure for constipation,
headache and dizziness. 25c at
Hoover's Drug Store and J. B. Black's.
Senator Neils Christensen, Jr., of the
dispensary investigating committee, says
the committee will hold another meeting
before the legislature convenes. The .
committee will meet some time in December,
and it is expected that some important
evidence will be produced.
In every clime its colors are unfurled
Its fame has spread from sea to sea;
Be not surprised if in the other world,
You hear of Rocky Mountain Tea.

South Uses Most Cotton.
Southern cotton mills are now consuming
more cotton per year than is
consumed in all other mills of the
United States. This fact is brought
out by the report of the bureau of
statistics of the department of commerce
of the United States. For the
crop year which ended on August 31
purchase of cotton by Southern mills
amounted to 2,374,235 bales against
2,349,478 bales taken by the mills in >
other sections. This is -the second
year in succession that the South has
held supremacy in cotton manufacturing,
for in the year ending August
31,1905, the Southern mills consumed
2,140,151 bales and those of other
sections 2,138,839 bales.
These figures are of great significance
when taken in connection with
the statistics published by the census .
office which show that during 1900
to 1905 four times as much capital
was invested in manufacturing establishments
in the South as New
England. They show that the South
is rapidly becoming one of the most
important manufacturing centres of
the country and has already become

Jamestown Exposition Notes.
The State buildings at the Jamestown
Exposition will all front upon
Hampton Roads and the naval and ,
marine displays may be seen from
their verandas and balconies. From
the water front the groups of State
buildings make a beautiful picture
and the people from the States which
have buildings at the exposition will
like to spend much time in their
spacious halls .and in their shady
verandas.
A reproduction of the world famous
battle between the Monitor and
the Merrimac will be an attraction
at the Jamestown Exposition, that
will interest all visitors. It will be
made just off the exposition grounds :
where the battle was fought.
A forestry exhibit of immense interest
will be an attractive feature
of the Jamestown Exposition, for it
will pmhra^e the entire United States
and woods and woodcraft will be expected
in this exhibit that have never
been known before. This exhibit
will be an education in itself.
An immense collection of Indian
relics covering- three centuries will
be one of the government exhibits at
the Jamestown Exposition.
Mrs. E. S. Chapin, the Northern
white woman who was assaulted by
the negro, Isaac Knight, has left
Aiken at the request of representative
citizens. She championed the
cause of social equality between the
negroes and whites and laid herself
liable to the fate she suffered by
keeping the negro in her house, and
after his execution there was strong
feeling against her, especially as she
signed a petition asking that his sentence
be commuted to life imprisonment.
To avoid trouble, leading citizens
advised her that it would be
wisest to leave, which she did at once.
