Ehrhard^E tellings!
Ehrhardt, August 31.?Last week
was a bad week for the farmers in
this section. Cold and rainy; could
not gather their cotton.
The cotton crop is far short of
even what the farmers thought they
would make. Most of them say their
cotton is nearly all seed?lint short.
Mrs. John F. Folk is spending
a day or so with her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Conrad Ehrhardt.
For magistrate in this section Mr.
L. A. Brabham, of the Olar section,
and Mr. Jacob C. Hiers, Jr., of this
section, will have to try their
strength Tuesday?one week from
I to-morrow. Both men are good ones,
and it will be hard to decide who to
vote for.
Rev. P. K. Rhoad preached in the
Methodist church here Sunday morning.
While there was a good lot of
our town people that heard him,
more would have gone had it been
known.
Mrs. Haigler, of Cameron, returned
to her home Sunday.
There was a courting couple that
passed through town Sunday. They
were blind as to the outside world,
or at least seemed so by the way
- they drove. Came very near running
over others that were out walking.
'
Miss Agnes Powers, of Charleston, :
spent a few days with Mrs. Henry
Ehrhardt last week. i
Mr. J. A. Cbassereau went on a '
* hunt last week on the Savannah riv- 1
er. He killed one out of three. Can't 1
talk anything else now. JEE. i

Other Matters.
For uncontested State offices there
were two counties missing, but the
total vote as otherwise tabulated
was:
For lieutenant governor, McLeod,
98,761; for state treasurer, Jennings,
100,153; for attorney general,
Lyon, 98,651; for secretary of State,
McCown, 98,361.
The two counties which did not
report on uncontested offices were
Lancaster and Chesterfield. Attorney
general Lyon was scratched in
several counties, notably at Fort Mill
in York county and at Beaufort.
There was a close vote for governor
in Pickens, but the official vote
shows that Ansel carried this by 12
votes. The Blease counties, therefore,
are reduced to Charleston,
Newberry, Laurens, Saluda. In Saluda
his majority was large, as it
was in Charleston.

Second district: J. O. Patterson

Hodges who will run over against
Ellerbe.

Fatal Wreck Caused by Boys.
Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 23.?Train No.
38 on the Southern railway, known
as the Southwestern limited train,
which left Atlanta shortly after noon
to-day, was wrecked four miles j
north of Suwanee, Ga., about 3
o'clock this afternoon. The colored
fireman, Mason Watkins, was killed
instantly and the engineer, B. F.
Dewberry of Atlanta, both being
pinned underneath the engine after
it left the track and turned over.
Dewberry died later. The mail car,
baggage can and combination car also
left the track and turned over, rolling
down a 15-foot embankment.
The mail clerks escaped wih minor
bruises. None of the passengers
were injured.
Just previous to the train's coming
three small boys were seen running
away from the scene. An investigation
after the wreck developed
the fact that a bolt had been
placed on the track and the flight of
the boys leads to the belief that, in
a spirit of mischief, they may have
placed the bolt in such a position as
to cause the train to jump the track,
rhe sheriff and railroad officers are
now at work on the case.
LEPER HELD PRISONER.
John B. Early, of Lynch, N. C., Afflicted
With Dread Disease.
Washington, Aug. 23.?John R.
Early, a leper, is held prisoner in a
tent at an isolated spot in the outskirts
of this city.
Early arrived in Washington ten
days ago and was discovered to be
suffering from the disease while living
at a Salvation Army lodging
house on Friday.
The health department officers
have -written to the authorities of
North Carolina to obtain permission
to remove the leper to Lynn, N. C.,
his home. The public health and
marine hospitable services are cooperating
"with the local authorities.
If the North Carolina authorities
refuse to take care of Early he probably
will be sent to the leper colony
in Louisiana.
Early has a wife and child, a mother,
two sisters and a brother living
in L.ynn, in. vj., wneace ue uauic iu
Washington to attend to his pension.
He served in the army for
nearly nine years and is supposed to
have contracted the fatal disease in
the Philippines.
Early is 35 years old and the
health officers say he has had the
disease for over a year. In that
time he has been employed in various
stores and mills and was actively
engaged in Salvation Army
work in numerous cities in New
York State. Among the places in
which he has lived since he was discharged
from the army at Plattsburg,
N. Y., in November, 1906, are
Winchester, a suburb of Boston,
Mass.; Troy, Granville and Oswego,
N. Y. At the last two places the
symptoms of leprosy first became
pronounced. From Oswego he went
to Canton, N. C., in May of this year
and was employed in a pulp mill employing
800 hands. Later he went
to Lynn, whence" he came to Washington.
Crops Almost Ruined.
Charlotte, N. C., Aug. 26?Indications
point to excessive damage to
the cotton crop by the unprecedented
rainfall, which has continued
without cessation since Sunday, and
it is probable that lowland corn is
entirely ruined. One grower estimates
the damage to cotton at 20
per cent, to-night, though stating
that is impossible at this time to
form anything like a correct estimate.
Most of the cotton has turned
yellow, which means that if the
hot sunshine succeeds the rainy spell
soon cotton will burn up on the
stalk. Another menace is rot, which
will ensue certainly if the rains continue
longer. Train service in the
south is cut off, nearly all trestles
having been washed away and the
few that have withstood the raging j
waters are being held down by loaded
freight trains. Water in the Catawba
river Las reached the 26-foot
level and the power house and mills
along its banks have suffered heavy
damage.
Antidote for Skin Diseases.
That's what Tetterine is; and it is
more. It is an absolute cure for eczema,
tetter, ringworm, erysipelas,
and all other itching cutaneous diseases.
In aggravated cases of these
afflictions its cures have been phenomenal.
It gives instant relief and
effects permanent cures. 50c. at
druggists or by mail from J. T.
