McLendon, popularly mown as "Cyclone Mack," an evangelist, who has created a name for imself in many states, has gone into -oluntary bankruptcy at Benr.ettsville, 5. C., his home town. The action has given rise to many umors, and in regard to these, J. Preston Gibson, of Bennettsville, has written the following letter to The Greenville Piedmont: "There have been much surmise, speculation and incorrect accusations elating to the reason why Evangeist B. F. McLendon, of this city, went rto Bankruptcy. No truer, courigcous and conscientious man lives ,han McLendon. 1 have known him 1 'rom his infancy and for several years lie has confronted evangelistic revi... 1 . .4. 11^ . atia iiuyu^iiuuv lilt: wiiib^u ouuc?. stands at the very top as one of the iblest preachers in America. lie has received large sums of money at his neetin^s, but he has spent his money sjenerously and liberally. "If there eve** has been a man who has obeyed the divine injunction 'Bear ye one another's burdens," it las been Baxter McLendon. Me lv.s bought more clothes for poor, needy people, educated more boys and girls *nd paid more doctor and hospital >iMs, and alleviated more suffering with the money that has come '.hrough his hands than any man that, [ have ever known. "The word 'No' was not in his vocabulary as long as he had a dollar, if some one needed it. He has been known to hold an evangelistic campaign and get several thousand dollars, and in less than a woek"a time hie would give it away. "It has been reported that 'Mack' put at I of his property in bis wife's name, in order to rob his creditors. Df course it is to be expected that scandal mongers would scatter this kind of a lie. The only property tha'; is in his wife's name is the home, and i that has been in hor name for sever- | il years. They mortgaged it tc the fullest; extent and put the money on Ins debts. "Three or four years ago during the times of inflation, McLendon bought some property and resold it and had to take it back, and after having paid twice the veal value of the property was forced to give it up. To make a long story short, one of >ur leading business men jaid 'hat he hed never known a man to make too K>vifves to pay his debts as Baxter McLendon had. No one has ijost a clolUir on McLendon and every claim :'g:.inst him has and will be paid, one hundred cents on the dollar. If any [>ne has an idea that Bax'.er McLendon is not loved and respected by the people of his home town, let hem come here and talk with the eading business men of this city."

Hamilton, Ipecialist in Soy Beans. Velvet Beans nd.Peanuts, in dfscussing varietes of for this state. The Mammoth Yellow is the stan- , ard variety of soy beans. It may be sed for seed production, hay. and hog: 1 rrazing. It is especially recommended j or seed production, as its seed are , ery desirable for oil and meal. The , il mills ofthis state offer an unlimiti i i _ _ l i a mancer tor tnese seen ana are very i nxious to obtain them in large quant- < ties. This bean also makes an excel- j ant hay for both work stock and dairy s ows and is extensively used as a hop 1 grazing crop. It may be planted at , ny time from the middle of April to * he middle of June and is an excellent ^ rop to follow grain. , The Otootan is rapidly gaining faor as n hay producer. It gives a arger yield per acre and a hay of ( icher feedin gvalue than cowpeas. , ^he stems arevery small and the hay # /> !!i T 1 1 _ 1 . ' s ot nne quality, it requires a iony ; ;rowing season and in the upper part ! f the state it should be planted in ' ^pril or early May, in order for it to < nake its maximum yield. 1 The Biloxi is a tall growing bush i ANOTHER FIRE CAUSES ALARM Number of Burnings Within , About Same Block of Homes . J TOTAL OF FIVE FIRES ' Mysterious Putting* Out of The j Fire Causes Some 1 Speculation l Another outhouse in Conway went ' ^ in i - i i?1j in ucii:it?.s i iKiciy aiieriiQn. M just before night. It w.as another j' chicken house located within , ? stone's 1 throw of the site of the McCracken 1 hen house that was burned recently, ^ and within about the same distance!' of the site of the barn on the Sher- ! wood property that made a big blaze ; a few days before. This last chicken house conflagra- ] tion caused .is much excitement as did ! either of the other burnings. It was | built of light pino sticks which made the best provender for the eager red flame; that shot unw.nrd for a brief time, got the fire laddies on the move, and caused hundreds of automobiles to carry a big crowd to the1, y'ace. By the time they got there, just as in other cases, the structure was practically gone up in smoke. Nothing could be done to save it. Tneie was sr.me danger to the T'^drle residence. This last hen house to be marked for the flames belonged to Mr. ^isdale. His loss can he estimated in a fev. dollars. It is now recalled that in that same community not long since, the now home of Mr. and Mrs. 1>. M. Burroughs, which at that time was .almost ready to be occupied caught on fire while workmen were standing around it., and the structure which: rost a 1 ;>i*jro sum of money, was total - 1 ly destroyed and no satisfactory ex- , planation of the way the lire started J was ever known, it was supposed j that a lantern used by workmen on | some ot tne upper rioors nan euner turned over and spilled the oil on the woodwork, or it had caused the planking to get too hot and generated flame among- the beams of the ceiiing overhead. First .after tlint. and recently, the Imn bouse of R. W. McCrackcn was mysteriously hurned. Hardly had the talk about that ceased when the valuable barn of Hon. E. J. Sherwood was destroyed, together with the Buick f,ar and a lot of supplies. Now the hen house of ^7r. Tisdale has been burned in the same unexpViined way. Tl,e people all agree that there is something going on in that community; that the work must be accomplished by small boys .iust learning to smoke cigaret'es. Being afraid to use the tobacco before thei" parents, they slip off into some outhouses to strike matches and try their hands at the prohibited pastime. In this way the o;ithouses so far destroyed may have been set on fire. One explanation said to be possible is the passage of freight trains in and cut over the tracks which run nearby this place. Trains are passing there every day, but those who have noticed the passing of these trains do not believe that the trains put out) the sparks. The railroad tracks are too far away from the Burroughs residence to have caused that particular fire. By the v.*ay, there is still anothev fire to be recounted for in that same section of Conway. It was about six months before the burning of the new D. M. Burroughs residence that one night. the hone of Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Barrett was tot/illy destroyed. The Barrett home was located about one block, not over two city blocks, from the outhouses recently burned and across the street from the residence which was being1 completed for Mr. D. M. Burroughs. This makes a total of five fires in the same town section within recent times. It is not claimed that these fires have any connection with each other, because such a fact cannot be known. It only seems strange that fire after .fire would break out in almost the same block of homes. These fires are enough to put all the dwellers in that section on notice. It may b? another instance of secret setting of fires by some person who is crazy on the subject. An incident of this kind was reported in the daily press about a year ago. Fires were continually breaking out in the name household but were fortunately discovered and rut out each time.

It finally developed that a housemaid had <?one crazy on the subject of fire and while keeping her actions entireIv secret would arrange plans for the fire to he started and then discovered in such a manner that excitement was ^nsed and never any damage was done. In the opinion of many the mysterious fires in this neighborhood of Conway is caused by small children playing with matches in the evening after school. So far it has been a fortunate thing that no high winds ivere blowing when the fires got out. rhis made it easy to protect other property that located near property located nearby. o Mr. McUavid Hovton, managing , editor.

I 3 Page No. 5 JOHN MOORE HAS PASSED John Moore, whose a#e has been variously stated from eighty-six to more ;han ninety, died last Sunday at the lonie which he has occupied in the coined residence section for more than iftv years. He had many of the qualities that n:\ke a Rood man. Always honest and ndustrious he earned a Rood name in :be estimation of both races. His trade, learned in the old school when he was quite young*, was th.it of sricklaying and plastering. At these lie was highly skilled. He could do a erreat deal of work and cou'.d do it well. Some of the best plaster work in this section of the state was accomplished by hint and by helpers under [lis direction. He was active in this work which he loved to do until his advancing .age caused him to stop about ten years ago Excepting light jobs that did not tax his strength too much. For a number of years he acted eis a special peace officer of the Town of Conway in that section of the municipality which lies on both sides of the lonur street known as the Race Path. In this he was fearless and was ever mindful of the best interests of the community wherein he had been Hpnointed. When the law was violated by the young negroes John Moore never 1'mu- d o b un; them before the mayor for trial. ?Tobn Moore was never involved in anything that was sh.ady or questionable. His place was under mortgage once. Tn the course of time worTk got slack and he had to keep the mortgage renewed from year to year. The late B. .T. Sessions aided John in making a deal which disposed of a part of the land he owned and paid off this mortgage. It is supposed that this was the last debt that John ever made and he paid it. John was far above the average of his race in intelligence and affability. He was of pleasing address for a negro !7o had rv'v Yi,'enc1s arong Hie white people of this section. They all 'iked John and were ,-r 4 V.*\id to trust him. He loved t > see others do well and he admired the success thnfc he saw others achieve reg irdless of any benefit that might co >v>e to him. He pained a subtle knowledge of the charactor and indentions or othevs from his lone life of experience in the'workaday world, and his estimates placed upon the character of others showed the wisdom that he trained from nractical experience rather than from book learning1, of which letter he possessed none at all. He had a sense of humor that was remarkable. He loved a good laugh and he couldmake others laugh.
