Like City, September 10:?
A most distressing accident
happened at Mr Alexander Jordan's
last Thursday, the drowning
of his eighteen months old
baby. Mrs Jordan is a daughter
of the late Mr Aaron T Rodgers
and the old Rodgers homestead,
where Mr and Mrs Jor- ,
\ dan live, was the scene of the ,
tragedy. There is a "clay hole"
partly filled with water between
*the house and the field. The
child's father had just gone to
the field and the supposition is
that the little fellow was endeavoring
totollow when he fell
. - .1 - ..-i? ?> r
into trie "ciay uuic. tunc naa
quite extinct when the body
was discovered and taken out.
?The blow was a fearful one to
the parents. The shock was
such a terrible one to Mrs Jordan
that the attention of physicians
was necessary. Mr and
Mrs Jordan are most excellent
- rttor>Art(?H r>pnnlp and
?uu "*5 "V * ? r ? r !
the tenderest sympathy of the
? entire community goes out to
them.

Mrs Marie Sutcliffe has gone
to Newark, N J, to visit her

The tobacco sales Thursday
i tipped one hundred thousand
pound s. This means some fifteen
to twenty thousand dollars
paid out for the leaf in one
day. The prices were good and
* general satisfaction prevailed
all around.
Strictly as a pumpkin we
can't beat "the pumpkin" yet;
but just wait. This was oun
"off" year on pumpkins, but
* give us a chance to "spread"
ourselves and we'll make "the
pumpkin" look like "thirty
cents," only more so.

"down" the throats of some of
those in that warehouse. The
temptation was entirely to
gTeat for those North Carolinians
and Virginians. We call
the attention of our friends to
this. A South Carolina grown
melon, which is liquid sunshine
entangled in the web of tie
rainbow and dashed with nectar
is too great a temptation to be
put in the way of these folks.
They just can't stand it; they
are not used to such luscious
ness.
Messrs B W Stewart, J S
Lynch, J F Rickenbaker and
J W Floyd left Friday night for
Jamestown. They will be away
about a week and will probably
visit Baltimore and Washington
as well as Norfolk.
Saturday Mr H Nachman
went to New York where he
joins Mrs Nachman. After celebrating
new year with their
Israelltish friends in New York
they will return home by way
of Jamestown, spending a few
days at the "show"
We have obtained from Mr
Henry J Williamson, whose
home is four miles from Cades,
a photograph of his tobacco
flolH Th<?r?? and
half acres in the patch. The
yield was fourteen hundred
pounds per acre and he sold the{
crop in the rough on this market
and received a clear check
for |770.00. We have secured
a "band" of the tobacco from a
pile valued, in the leaf, at $65.00
per hundred pounds. The photograph
of "hand" we have
shipped to Jamestown to be
placed on exhibition in the
South Carolina exhibit. We
have the promise of a stalk of
cotton from Morrisville for the
same purpose Our State has
the best exhibit at the exposition
and old South Carolina is
being, by it, advertised as never
before. The attention of the
entire country is being attracted
by the display which demon
strates to an astonished empire
the fact that we have the greatest
State in the Union. All of
us who can ought to see that
exhibit to learn what we have,
what we are and what we are
doing. "Every South Carolinian
who walks out of the gates
of the Jamestown fair, does so
with his head high, much higher
than when he entered. He
is proud, vastly proud of his
State and returns home with a
sweet content that his lot is cast
where the palmettos wave.

Last Saturday was appropriately
observed as < biidreu's
day at the Black Kiver scnooi
house, where a very interesting
programme was well rendered
by the little folks, who had
been so well and carefully trained
for the occasion by Mrs Buddin,
assisted by her daughter,
Miss Airy, who was the efficient
organist during the exercises
The children all carried out
their parts exceptionally well,
and especially so, considering
that it was the first Children's
lay exercises ever held in their
community.
A delightful picnic inconnec
tion was> greatly enjoyed by all'
the large crowd present Rev J
