It is reported that Mr John 1

s|>eaks a contemporary, "Vaughn
will expiate liis crime in the electric
chair.'' We hate to shatter
such an illusion, hut we feel constrained
to ask our misguided con-'
temporary since when has it l>een
the custom in South Carolina to
impose capital punishment on a
white man, however heinous his
crime, if he has money and is willing
to spend it to save his life. Already
Vaughn's attorneys, even in
the face of his confession, have apiMioliwl

electrocution set for December 20.
It would be surprising indee<l to
many people if Vaughn is ever
electrocuted, self-confessed criminal
though he be.
And now it turns out that that
Spartanburg man didn't make
four bales of cotton on four acres,or
anything like it. The revised state- .
ment is that a Spartanburg farmer J
gathered five bales from four or five ;
acres and had probably another
hale left in the field. The "cub" i
.
reporter, whose knowledge of agriI'ulture
is rather nebulous, made
the simple error of substituting one (
ncre for five, blissfully ignorant, '
doubtless, that he had thereby (
"busted" for all time the record 1
for cotton production. Our "print- [
it's devil" interjected the observation
when we published the original
statement that it "sounded like a ,
fish story." Doubtless many other 1
phenomenal yields will dwindle \
into mediocrity when the proper j

David Kinard, a "prominent" s
young merchant of Bamherg, shot J

the main street of that town. Of *
itself this statement would l>e hut a i

mr State has of late years achieved ^
i record for murder and all other <
rimes of violence that would put to |

?ut in this case the report states that i

vill justify an acquittal by a jury of ^

note contingency of a conviction,

ty will appeal to a tender-hearted

:
Carles, November 4:?The Bank
of Cades has been doing1 business
for two weeks now and has had a
croor) nat.rnnacrp sinep its oneninff. ! i

The Cades Mercantile company (
threw open its doors today and ev- j
erything bids fair for a fine business.
Surveyor Johnson is here, laying 5
j <
out and locating some lots that have j
recently changed hands. i
The lots known as the McKenzie j
property sold in Kingstree today ,i
are located on each side of the A C L j'
railroad. .All brought good prices.
I understand that Mr C C Carsten
got the one on the east side and Mr
E H Carsten that on the left.
Cades is to have some good fami- ,
lies added to her population in the
near future, all of whom we welcome
among us, and hope that others
will come.
Rev W H Whitehead has closed
a good meeting at the Baptist
church, at which eight members
were added to the membership and |
six to the Methodist church. We
hope the goc'd work that has been
done will have a permanent uplifting
effect.
Messrs H J Brown, G E Hill and
S J Anderson attended t'ne Southeast
Baptist association at Olanta as
delegates from here. Mr D J McElveen
and others from this place
were also present during the session.
We regret to report that Mr J J
M Graham is very sick at his home
near here.
The members of Mr J N Floyd's
family,who have been so sick of late,
are, we hope, all on the road to recovery.
Several of our folk went to Kingstree
today, it being salesday. B.
State Senator J B Green, of
Marlboro county, died Monday. Mr
Green had been Sheriff for a lumber
of years before his election as
Senator.
