H. D. Gally, well known contractor
of the city who lives below the city,
on rural route No. 6. had tho misfor
tune rome time ago of losing ecveral
of his fine chiqkens. For some time

The elegant home of E. J. Pruitt nf
Starr was destroyed yesterday morn
ing by fire. It was a nine room, two
story structuro and ono of the pret
tiest in that part of the country. . The
flames started In the kitchen and

abled Mr. Pruitt to save practically
everything of value on the first floor,

Farmers Interested
In Creamery Work.
That farmers of certain sections of
the county are deeply interested in
the proposition of producing cream
for marketing purposes, ls borne out
by the meeting held at West Pelzer
some days ago when the matter of
establishing a creamery route in that
section, with West Pelzer as the
shipping point, was discussed with
farmers. Twenty-three farmers plac
ed orders for cream separators, and
will go in the business on a smull

New York Cotton
NRW YORK. Jag.. 4.-The cotton
market today was more active than at
any time since the resumption of bus
iness in futures. Prices ruled very
firm, nnd all active positions made
new high ground for the movement.
Firmness in Liverpool, attributed to
an increasing spot deraarfd, combined
with thc continued absence of pres
sure from the large Southern spot
supplies, seemed to bc chiefly respon
sible for the broadening of investment
and demand and there was consider
able covering of shorts. Realizing
caused moderate reactions during the
day. but on every moderate setback,
fresh buying orders seemed to be un
covered. The close was firm at prac
tically tiffi best point of the day. or
about ir> to 22 poi M ts above Saturday's
close.
The opening was steady, 7 to 10
points advance on higher cable.-.
There was considerable realizing by
recent buyers and a little sellins here
against purchases in New Orleans, but
offerings were well taken ;u"". some of

New Orleans Cotton
NEW ORLEANS. Jan. 4.-The first
1915 session in thc cotton market
brought a net advance of 26 to 30
points with the colse near the best
of the day. There wa3 good buying
throughout the session except for a
brief period in the carly afternoon
when profit taking by the long caused
a 10-point reaction. At the higest the
trading months were 26 to 32 points
up.
lt was evident on the opening that
buying orders had accumulated over
the holidays. Floor gossip included
reports of heavy buying by outside in
terests and by Gernvan spinners and
cotton merchants. The strength ol
tho spot markets, the advance in New
York Saturday, the firmness of Liv
erpool and reports that cotton ship
pers were heavy buyers of ocean
freight room, were stimulating fac
tors.
The session was the most active and
the advance was the widest sire- th?

No men or woman who erste isoat

all rhewTuptlsm. headaches, liver tria

come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache In
the kidneys or your back hurts or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive, ful? of

Stocks and Bonds.
NEW YORK, Jan. 4.-Reopening ot
tire London exchange, peace rumora
from abroad, which mot with prompt
denials as they affected this govern
ment, successful flotation of the *ii>,
000.000 Argentine loan by United
States bankers, and some evidence of
January reinvestment demand exer
cised more or less influence over to
day's moderately active and strong
market for securities. Leading shares,
especially the international division,
rose from 1 to 3 points, with gains of
almost a& much in less prominent
stocks. Incidentally the New Year 6
per cent. New York notes rose to a
new record price, while exchange on
I-ondon receded to within a fraction
of its bottom figure of the previous
year.
General news of the day included
an unofficial estimate pointing to a
substantial increase In December ton
nage of the United States Steel cor
poration, further Inquiries for equip
ment by gome of the leading, railway
systems and resumption of operations
at a number of mills and manufac
turing plants.
Other features of interest were a
pew high record for wheat and wes
tern* freight movement partly In ex
cess of this period last year. Rail
roads in the west and south made
more adverse reports of earnings for
November, St. Paul showing a net de
crease of $784,000 and Louisville &
Nashville a loss of $593,000.
Time loans for all dates were quot
ably unchanged, but actually lower*
where high class collateral was offer
ed. Interior banks loaned considera
hie amounts and renewed their recent
buying of mercantile paper.
London's dealings in Americans

many restrictions imposed. New York
