At the time of the burglary, M. Mrs. Ecller was not at home, and the Bo: whole house was at the mercy of theth thief. It is a miracle that no other wh valuables were stolen. A window I pane was found broken, and it is sup Di posed that by this means the thief re- and moved the window fastenings, raised the the sash, and in this way effected an entrance. When Mrs. EK ller returned te back door was found open, and it a probable that the burglar made his hai scape that way. sell Every circumstance seems to inadi cate that the guilty party is some one at familiar with the house and its sur-w roundigs. It is a long time since a bolder or mere serious robbery has int ccurred in W innsboro. As far as is P known at present no satikfactory clue ma has been discovered, but nothing will ~ be lefs udene to arrest the guilty -he! scoundrel.

Editor: Many small towns nlow ave cotton factories Why may not Winnsboro? Many think that a fac ory is the only thing that will give Wiunsboro a lift as well as ihe farmers or miles around who have beef or nutton or fruits or vegetables to sell. But how can a factory be built? The nly possible plan is by instalments, or there is very little ready money ere But every one who takes a share msst resolve to hold oni till the work s done and persuade his neighbor to lo the same, and must not lay plans y buy stock at half price. Every nan must look to the good of the fac ory and must not set triggers to sell s land or to get the factory built on his side or on that side from selfish notives. The good of the factory will )e the good of the town, no matter: here located, and of everybody in Lnd near the town. Pall together like ock Hill, and get the farmers for ifteen miles around help to pull, for; t is as much their interest as that ofI own people. We can get a factory if e want it. Winnsboro is in need of omething. Let some man of enter-I rise start the ball. Then these fac-| >ies are so pi ofitable to the stock olders that when they get one theyd mon want another. So the country is nriched. Start right now and be eady for the good times, for they will ome again. A. n. c.
