(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Etta Jane, July 10.—At no time
sluce the year set iu have the farmers
been so hardly pressed with their
work as they are this week. Crops
are looking very well, especially cot
ton, where it has been well worked.
Rut such a small acreage of it has
been worked|properly that it’s hardly
a drop in the bucket.
Rev. M. Marion was too unwell to
fill his appointment at Salem last
Sabbath.
The C. E. Society met at Mr. W.
C. Blackwelf’s last Sabbath aud
elected new officers for the next six
months.
Mr. J. Ran Warmoth, of Hickory
Grove, was on this side of the river
on business this week. We hope
“Ran” will continue bis letters to
The Ledger and let us know how his
section is getting along.
Garden vegetables are plentiful
just at this time and if the rains will
come as often as needed and no dis
aster comes upon them, there will be
plenty of them till fall.
About tea or fifteen bands met at
Howell’s ferry last Saturday and
tried to get the chain out of the
river, but failed. The prospects are
that it will remain there for some
time yet, if not always.
Dr. L. J. Wood makes his visits to
see Mrs. John Foster regularly and
she is getting on as well or even bet
ter than was expected.
We are glad to hear a good report
from Rev. Mr. Wray’s meeting at
Gaffney and hope how much good it
will do and long the results may
last. Some people are disposed to
think the world is getting worse and
that everything that tends to elevate
mankind spiritually, morally and
intellectually is going down. But
we don’t see it in that light.
While we admit that none of us are
as good as we ought to be or could
be, yet there are those who have high
aims to a better life. Those who are
not of that class, are, of course, not
in it (to use a slang phrase). They
are just as good and wise aud useful
as they ever care to be.
We hope our ministers will pardon
us for suggesting that each of them
begin his revival meetings tbiasum-
mer with a text something like this:
“Cleanse thou me from secret
faults,” Psalms 19:12. Let each
speaker and hearer make this the
centre of his thoughts aud confine
himself to au individual heart search
ing, and good will result from it.
What we all need is an inward ex
amination of self rather than an out
ward examinatiOD of others. We are
inclined to stamp out the sins of
other people rather than to get rid of
our own, are more interested about
other people than we are of ourselves.
We must let the drunkard, the liar,
the thief, the blasphemer, the Sab
bath breaker and every other fallen
creature severely alone until we get
right with God ourselves, and then
a tidal wave of love and mer
cy will bear our petitions to a
Throne of Grace where they will be
answered. Let us turn our eyes in
wardly with the same desire to find
the faults, defects and spiritual de
formities of our own hearts and lives
that we do to find them inothers.
Some people can sit back compla
cently and shout ‘Amen’ when the
minister hits neighbor Jones a hard
lick, but when he strikes them in a
tender spot they turn white about
the gills and remain as dumb as an
oyster.
A short time ago we gave a remedy
for getting rid of flies. The types
made us say the “best” rather than
the “lasf’remedy, which our readers
will please supply for we don’t wish
to get into the dilemma that the edi
tor of the Union Times did for pub
lishing it and then laughing at others
who tried it, as he did, and got fool
ed.
Some people are astonished to
think that Senator Tillman has found
out that Col. Hoyt is a democrat.
He, perhaps, didn’t think so last
summer when Col. Hoyt was advo
cating prohibition. It is an old
maxim that “a wise man will change
his opinion sometimes, but a fool
never does.”
The Millwood boys, Tom, Cal and
Henry are working the Tolleson
place at the junction of the Howell’s
ferry and Smith’s ford roads. They
have the best cotton on the land
we have seen there since the land
was fresh. They are good workers
and farmers. They are sons of Mr.
Morgan Millwood, who now lives near
the Cowpens battleground and who,
by the way, Is a good farmer bimaelf.
But “Morg” don’t stand in with the
prohibitionists. He believes lo a man
taking a dram whsn be gets ready,
provided he drinks It like be does—
in moderation—-for he does despise
to see a man make a dog of hlmBelf.

More Cotton Blooms.
Cotton blooms are getting quite
common now and several have been
sent in to this office within the last
few days.
Rev. J. M. Bridges, of Algood,
who is maxing things move on the
farm this year, sent us in a red blos
som a few days ago which he said he
could have sent|several days before
but hadn’t time to fix it up, being
so busy with other matters of much
more importance than sending cot
ton blooms to a newspaper. Mr.
Bridges is a pusher in everything he
undertakes, and is is not surprising
that he was among the first to have
blooms on his cotton plants.
Mr. Jesse Pinson, one of the lead
ing citizens and planters of the
Thickety section, was also among
the first to send in a cotton blossom
to this office. It came from the crop
of Joe Easier who is a tenant on Mr.
Pinson’s place near Tbicketj.
All the blooms sent in were red
except one, which was white. They
were all of good size and denoted a
healthy condition of the cotton from
which they were taken.
Cherokee farmers are as progressive
as any in the land, and we heard of
some who had blooms a week before
any were sent to this office. Mr. R.
C. Thompson, of onr city, was among
the number who had the earliest}
blossoms ou their cotton.

Mr. J. D. Collins, who was shot in

Blackshurg, July 11.—Charles
Louis Kingsley, chief Civil Engineer
of the South Carolina and Georgia
Extension Railroad Company died
at this place Wednesday aUsrnoon
from the effects of morphine and
laudanum administered by himself.
That he contemplated self destruc
tion is very evident from a number
of things, but especially from the
signed memorandum which he left.
It was written in pencil and covered
five sheets of whst resembled re
porters paper, and while perhaps
some of the notes or memoranda
seemed satirical, many were clear
and business like, as for instance
that relative to the amount due him
for service rendered the S. C. & G. E.
R. R., and the disposition he wished
made of it. The part however,
that seemed strange was that in
which he requested that he be buried
at midnight and by four negroes,
with no mourners or clergy
man. Part of this request was
oot carried out. He was buried on
Tburslay at 11 o’clock in the Baptist
cemetery without any religious cere
mony and in the presence of his
friends.
Mr. Kingsley was originally from
about Raleigh, N. C., and came to
Blacksburg about 1888 in connection
with the construction of the old 3
C’s road, now the S. C. & G. E. R.
R. Quiet and unassuming, he was
popular, not alone with the employees
of the road. Possessed of fine intel
lectual qualities, he was considered
the best civil engineer in this sec
tion of country. At the time of bis
death be left only a wife and a sister.

CROP BULLETIN.
Condition of Carolina Cropt* an Reported
by the Bureau.
Columbia, July 9.—The week end
ing Monday, July 8th, averaged
slightly warmer than usual over the
western, northern and central por
tions, and slightly cooler over the
southeastern. The daily maximum
ranged between 86 and 98 degrees,
while a minimum of 66 was noted at
Greenville on the 1st. There was
more than the usual amount of
bright sunshioe.
Early in the week, and again near
its close, there were scattered show
ers, heaviest in the central and
southeastern counties, with a maxi
mum rainfall of 1.99 inches at St.
George, while over the northern and
western counties the week was gen
erally rainless. These conditions of
high temperature, abundant sun
shine, and absence of rain, made this
this the most favorable week of the
season for cultivation, nevertheless,
many fields remain grassy and it will
require at least another week of dry
weather to clean them. Rain is
needed generally for the crops, and
to soften the soil, especially clayey
land that dried out hard, aud breaks
cloddy under cultivation. Rain is
also needed to prevent further injury
to crops that were damaged in rid
ding them of grass and weeds.
The corn crop can now safely be
characterized as the poorest in many
years, and over considerable areas
will approximate a failure. Corn,
with some exceptions, has slender
stalks, is tasselling low, and not
earing well. Planting bottom and
stubble lands continues.
Tobacco shared in the general im-
provemei t during the week, but is
still very poor. Cutting and curing
is well under| way in all districts.
Rice made marked improvement,
but has not fully recovered from the
ill effects of the excessive June rain
fall. Peas are being extensively
planted in with corn and stubble
fields. Some have come up to good
stands. Apples, peaches and pears
continue to drop extensively, while
peaches and grapes rot as they ripen.
The labor situation has not improved,
and continues to be a serious factor
in this year’s farm economics.
Cotton made a slight and general
improvement, except sea-island, that
improved decidedly. The plants are
unusually small for the season, and
are growing slowly, especially on
sandy soils, where their condition is
exceptionally poor. Blooms are
noted over the whole State, but cot
ton is not blooming as profusely as it
should do at this season. It is re
ported that the crop, as a whole,
cannot possibly attain a normal con
dition, however favorable the weath
er daring the remainder of the sea
son may be.

A NIGHT MARRIAGE.
Mr. CliMrllr KltiioreMmt MIhh fram;:? Mnitt-ly
Writ at !t:30 O'clock TliU Morning.
There was an occurrence in the city
this morning which makes Fiction
throw down her pen and turn green
with envy, and Romance droops her
head and blushes to own that she is
not in it.
Shortly after two o’clock this morn
ing Rev. Mr. Ford, of the Cherokee
Avenue Baptist Church, was aroused
from his peaceful slumbers by the
ringiog of his doorbell. Upon open
ing the door the reverend gentleman
found two figures, a male and a fe
male. standing before him who soon
made known the fact that they were
candidates for matrimony and that
they desired him to perform the cere
mony at once. Mr. Ford, being a
very obliging gentleman, straightway
invited them into his parlor and with
the ease and eloquence born of long
practice and much experience in such
matters, he very soon made them
husband and wife.
These determined young lovers
were Mr. Charlie Elmore and Miss
Fannie Mosely, both of this city.
They are both very popular among
their acquaintances, and they truly
deserve all the happiness and pros
perity that their friends hope may
attend them through life.

Blood poison and deadly cancer
are the worst and most deep-seated
blood diseases on earth, yet the
easiest to cure when Botanic Blood
Balm is used. If you have blood
poison, producing ulcers, bone pains,
pimples, mucous patches, falling
hair, itching skin, scrofula, old
rheumatism or offensive form of
catarrh, scabs and scales, deadly can
cer, eating, bleeding, festering sores,
swellings, lumps, persistent wart or
sore, take Botanic Blood Balm (B. B.

after everything else fails. B. B. B.

and the blood, then every sore heals,
making the blood pure and rich, and

m THE SHADOW OF DEATH.
A Whole family Cared.
Mrs. C. II. Kingsbury, who keeps a
millinery and fancy goods store at St.
Louis, Gratiot Co., Mich., and who is
well known,throughout the Country,
says:
** I was badly troubled with rheuma
tism, catarrh and neuralgia. I had
liver complaint and was very bilious. I
was in a bad condition; every day I be
gan to fear that I should never be a
well woman; that I should have to
settle down into a chronic invalid, and
live in the shadow of death. I had
JOHNSTON’S SARSAPARILLA rec
ommended to me. I TOOK FOUR
BOTTLES AND IT CURED ME, and
cured my family both. I am very glad
that I heard of it. I would cheerfully
recommend it to every one. I have
taken many other kinas of medicine.
I prefer JOHNSTON’S to all of them. -
