"TALKINK SHOP" A BIT. "Talking Shop" a little this morning will not he amiss, and we, ?rust, not uninteresting to the readers of this morning's paper. Ow ing to a number of unexpected changes in the mechanical force of The Intelligencer, occurring suddenly after the "ghost walked" Sat urday afternoon, the 3rd of October, the getting out of a paper itt all iast week was nothing short of marvelous, and to add to the discomfiture of the force the- linotype machines got "halky", and had to be coaxed to get any results at all. Some parts from the factory '?vere very slow in coming in and at one time it was ftared that no pa per would get out at all, but fortunely only no issue was missed.. While tIiis articlt is being written everything in the shop is moving dong so smoothly that it seems almost a dream that there ever should have been any trouble, or rathr a nightmare it is. We are congratulating ourselves over the splendid force of new nen now engaged in making this paper you are now reading. They ire all experts in their paritcular lines and we feel that easier times are ahead for the paptr. The new men in the mechanical depart tient are as follows: Linotype operators-George Cameron, of Wilmington, N. C., S. R. Nicks, Victoria, Texas; A. M. Wright, New berry, S. C. Make-up-man-John Marynell, Evansville, Ind. Ad >etter-"Press" Fant. Anderson. Pressman-F. ?. Kinney, Shreveport, La. Mr. Kinney is not a "new" man strictly, as he has been with us for several weeks, and is all the time "on the job." Not >nly is th mechanical forct new but the Associated Press operator, ame in yesterday from New Orleans, B. T. Yon, formerly of Lex ngton, S. C., Mr. Burkett being transferred to Charleston. Under tnt order of things since Col. Banks left, D. Watson Tell, continues to act as city editor, and E. Adams, as foreman, with 'he duiits of telegraphic editor, in addition. Phelps Sasseen, who has been here for several weeks as abtady known to many of our readrs md is working in the capacity of advertising manager, while Theo lore B. Godfrey is circulation manager. This write-up would not be :omplete without mentioning Miss Hayes, whom the public believer uns the entire shop, and the public is not far off the track. Sht besides over the front office and does m?ny other things in and Ibout ihe shop, lt will not be amiss to mentin the fact that Mrs. W. \. Hudgens will act as society editor after Miss Vance, who has so tcceptably filled this position, leaves to make her home in Colum bia. Thus it will be seen that there was an exduse for the six page capers sent out last week, but we feel that we have just struck cur 'pace now, and that the public will be the recipient of the advantages of having so competent and able newspaper workers as are now as sembled on the Intelligencer force. Our readers can rest assured that bey will re?oive ? paper every day one is due to come out and, we lope to add many features from time to time that will add to the in erest and news value of the "old" Intelligencer. Judge George E. Prince, of this crty, has a remarkable intel 'ect, and he usually hits the bull's eye on every time in his decisions, ?nd in his utterances on public questions. Everyone is familiar vith his clear cut and logical conclusions on the common school sys em in the State, and the duty of a parent towards his children in he matter of giving them educational advantages. Many a charge o the grand juriesj of the courts over which he has presided will be emmbered long after his honor has ceased to preside over the courts if the State. Now he comes out ?vith a brand new idea, and in keep ng with the "Buy-a-Baie" movment, one which will undoubtedly be lovel in its application. Over in Saluda a man was convicted of .as aujt and battery and fined $100 by_Judge Prince. The defendant; counsel complained that their client was a poor man, and had to de end on the sale of his cotton to pay the debt. Judge Prince im mediately announced that the court would accept 1,000 pounds^ of otton in lien of the fine, lt is still undecided what effect this will lave on the crimes of Saluda county in the future. When President W. W. Finley of the Southern Railway Cdm cany dieri, th<? South felt that it has lost a valuable friend and an abie ivocate. (This was ?rue, for Mr. Finley was always battling for the ipbuildlng of his native South. The results of his far seeing policy i the live stock industry. There was a feeling of sadness and loss to this section felt when the news of President Finley's death * was lashed over the country. But there is never a man so important that someone may not lake his place, however great a blow to one's vanity this thought may occasion. Such was the case when Fairfax Harrison stepped into the place made vacant by the death of his predecessor. He has filled it. The true greatness of the man can be seen in a decision of his just made public. He has voluntarily reduced his own salary twenty per cent, and asked that all other officials having a salary of S2.500 or over do likewise in varying proportions. This, voluntary reduction will not be much in prooprtion to the entire salary roll of the railway system, but its principle is the same, and shows the un selfishness of the man. "BUY COTTON GOODS AND HELP THE SOUTH." The Intelligencer's advocacy of the National Cotton Goods week is responsible for th interest manifested in so laudabie an enterprise. Yesterday this movement started here, and already there is much - talk of the great amount of cotton ?oods being sold by thr dry goods merchants of the city. And the week has but ]iM started Before it ends there wi'l doubtless thousands of dollars worth of cottn goods sold ver the counters of our merchants, and ttts?e will be given an impetus lo the move ment which will be Laid t^ stop. The Intelligencer believes that there is room for the consump tion of much of our surplus crop right at home, if our people will only wear cotton goods. In addition to the use of cotton foods for clothing there are many other uses to which cotton may be put, and these uses are being made of the staple. For in stance, the T. Q. Anderson Bagging and Tie Company, of Anderson, is making and shipping large quantiles of cotton bags for the use of cotton seed oil mills in putting up their meal. * There is absolutely no sense in importing material for making these bags when the South has such a surplus cotton crop. Other fertilizer should also be nut up in cotton bags, and we, see no reason why all the South Carolina fertilizer factories should not place orders for their entire output. The cotton itself should be,put Up in cotton bagging. By all means let the South, at bast show ifs apprciation of its best and almost its only money crop by using as much of it at lune as it possibly can. All honor to the young ladies who are serving this week in the interest of the cotton goods movement tn Anderson. "Boy Chiton Goods and Help the South" should be emblazoned on our escutcheons But by all means let us BUV, COTTON GOODS IN THE SOUTH. COTTON ACCEPTED FOR FINE. A MATTER OF PRINCIPLE.

NO THOUGHT OF SURRENDER German Warships Sunk Off Helgoland by the British' Went Down Fighting. London.-A gun-room officer in a bat tie cruiser that was ba the engagement off Helgoland writes: "The particular ship we were en gaged with waa In a pitiful plight when we had finished with her-her funnels shot away, meats tottering, great gaps of daylight In her aldea, amoke and flame belching from bet everywhere. She anee illy heeled over and sankt like u atc?e, stern first. So far as ls known none of her crew wsa saved. She waa game to the last, Iel lt be said, her flag, flying till she Bank, her guna barking till they coule* bark no more. "Although we ourselves suffered no losa we had some very narrow escapes. Three torpedoes were observed to psaa us. one within a few feet Four-inch shells, too, fell short or more ahead ot us. The sea was, alive with the enemy's submarines, which however, did us no damage.

In the custody of Sheriff Ashley. Richard Cannon arrived' in Anderson Saturday and is now in the Anderson county jail to await trial on the charge of adultery- Cannon waa captured af ter a search lasting almost two years and the Anderson* offlecers have been tireless in their efforts to get him. It is alleged that Cannon committed adultery in Anderson County in the early months of 1913. the other party being a young woman of tho Honea Path section, at that time employed by Cannon in his photographic estab lishment on Whitner street. Cannon disappeared in 1913 and had not been seen or heard of until he was located by the Audcrsun county oinciaiB In Louisville, Ga., and when they found that their prey waa captured Sheriff Ashley lost no time. He knew that Canno? would not return without re quisition papers ?rd accordingly those documents were secured belora the Anderson officer left the county. Aa he had expected Cannon refused to return without the papers and then t" e Sheriff showed him that this waa a fleeting hope. At one time Cannon waa a well known business man here. He con ducted a studio on Whitney street, dealing in cameras and kodaks and he also conducted a similar -place in Greenville and did well with both ventures. He cam? of good family and hts wife ls one of the best known lad ies of tho community. Another interesting feature of the case is the fact that some months ago Hrs. Cannon instituted proceedings for a divorce in tho Georigia' courts and that case is to be passed apon within the next fow days. It la understood that Cannon will esk for an early preliminary hear ing and it is said that this will be held before Magistrate Broadwell within the next few days. Brown Always Knows The Ad Man, in his usual rounds yesterday overheard three peo ple earnestly talking together, and without trying to eaves-drop, he overheard enough ot their conversation to learn that they were discus sing Mr.-Brown, a well known, and prosperous man about An derson, in which these three gentlemen were discussing Brown's ex cellent business ability. "Brown always knows where to buy everything at the lowest price," ?sid one mani "Ho always seems to do better than I can in v*' .ine 100 cents worth far a dollar," said another. Brovn is nearly the type of successful man who believes in us ing his biains. He ls above all else a student of advertising-and he makes his newspaper advertising pay for Itself many times over by the infor mation Its advertisements give him.
