DOGS FOLLOW TRAIL.
Robbers at Mulliits Are Captured by
Officers.
Mullins, May 1.?The department
store of R. Miles was broken into and
robbed night before last and more
than $200 worth of goods stolen,
When the store was opened the following
morning Mr. Miles wired for
the penitentiary dogs and they were
dispatched here by automobile, in
charge of Guard Bobbins. The trail
was carried to a negro's house and it j
was not loni* h?>f->ro the fun* no I

known. The negroes who iived in |
this house have frequently been in
similar trouble, and it is said that
two of the brothers are now serving
a term on the chaingang. A third
brother was arrested, charged with
the deed. He, with two other accomplices,
have been caught with the
goods, as much as they could conveniently
carry from the store during
the night.?The State.

Large Irish Potatoes.
From the Irish potato farm of W.

comes this week two potatoes perfectly
developed, one measuring (>1-2 |
and the other 7 inches in circumference.
Among the very best looking Irish
Sotatoes in the county is the crop of

Spivey in Dog Bluff township. The
field appears to have four or five
acres planted and from the present
looks of the plants there will be a
heavy yield and it will very soon be
ready for market too.

CONWAY, S.C., THURI
YOUNG BOY IS ILL.
Over Exertion and Exposure Sup
posed to Be Cause of Sickness.
Last week, young Mayo Holliday
son of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Holliday
left here to return to his father's
place at Savage. He took a bicycle
along and rode with it on the train
to Avnor, S. C., the te .ninus of the
Conway, Coast & Western Railroad,
A 4* f nAiwf Via trvnlr n I *w!

riding the wheel until he took the
train again and after riding off many
miles took the wheel again and finally
arrived at home at Savage, worn
i out from the heat and the alternate
cold of the late spring nights. He
was taken desperately ill soon after
his arrival. Dr. J. S. Dusenbuiy was
called from this point at once.
As the child did not seem to improve
he was taken the latter part of
last week to the infirmary of McLeod
at Florence, where at last accounts
he was doing well and reported to
be much better under the circumstances.
He is a very energetic boy
of a trip without being used to it.
This is supposed to be the cause of
his serious illness.
His condition was so serious the
day that he was taken to the hospital,
that his father took great risks
in driving him and his physician over
to Florence using a Ford touring car
at a high rate of speed. At one point
the car skidded and turned completely
round on an embankment.

Pacific and other railroads when they granted their lands
iud we expect to benefit thereby., as well as the ones who
will receive the tracts.
We have also planned to develop what is designed to
be the best equipped, most up-to-date, scientific, commercial
farm and orchard in existence. It will consist of six
thousand acres, and will be included in tnis opening. All
who register and receive tracts will get the beefit of the
experiments and scientific methods In vogue thereon. While
we are arranging to prevent over-reglttration. we will avoid
many disappointments, such as occurred in other land openings
conducted by the United States Government and railroads,
by granting those who register in excess of the number
of tracts to be granted, an Interest lu this commercial
farm and orchard enterprise, In the hope that they may later
locate In one of our town sites,
Examination of the land will cheerfully be permitted
and the opening will be held at Bvowntown, Wayne Coun
ty, Georgia, one or the stations of the A. B. & A. Railroad,
which is located on this property, and will occur as soon after
the closing of registrations as arrangements can be made.
The presence of those registered wilinotbe necessary at
Browntown on the opening day unless they wish to attend,
lor there will be no favoritism shown anyone. It will be
conducted by a committee selected for the purp >se, and
those registered will be notified of what they have been
granted, as soon as possible.
With the ever-increasing population of this country
there is no corresponding increase in the area of land, and
naturally as the population increases and seeks the land
in pursuit of health, happiness and indeoendence. it will
continue to be^harder to secure.
The prosperous and cuntented class In Europe to-day
are the descendants of th'>se who secured land there when
It was plentiful, while the descendants of those who obtained
no 1 ind are now the \ e rants and si wes, You must realize
that this may be your last chance to secure land in
this country without a large outlay of capital, to it
