COTTON AND CURTAILMENT. Some Fatts and Figure* Throwing light Vpon the Subject?Increase Of Spindle* n Big Factor. Wall Street Journal. Probably no staple commodity is now attracting so much attention as the cotton supply. Nearly all figures of production for the current season are as yet estimates; The average for the four years preceding- the current one for all countries was 17,020,000 ! bales. There seems to be no doubt of a shortage of probably 2,000,000 bales In the United States and it is very doubtful whether the Improvements In Russia, India and Egypt in cotton prospects will at best offset the major portion of this loss. Consumption for the corresponding four yeaqj averaged 16,646,000 bales, leaving an annual surplus of 374,000 bales visible. There shouK be added the invisible cotton supply as that part of the world's stock which there is no reliable way of estimating. On the side of supply must also be placed the fact that on September 1, 1909, the world's visible and Invisible stock was estimated at 6,668.000 bales. That was the largest in five years. Mean? while sight receipt have added 2,053, 000 bales In the United States alone, and last week these receipts were 667,796 bales or 36 per cent, langer than the average for the three pre? ceding years. The Immediate facts in cotton sup? ply do not, therefore, indicate an alarming shortage. It is only when we come to anticipate the full possi? bilities of demand for fibre and fab? rics that raw cotton supplies reveal their Inadequateness. Populations keep on increasing, their uses of cotton goods have expanded arid the areas over which marketa havo been opened are steadily enlarging. Apart from fabrics the other uses to which raw cotton has been put have made de? cided gains with each succeeding year. Even though such secondary uses may have taken only the cheaper grades of the fibre, they have never? theless reduced tho supply for textile purposes to a considerable extent, possibly one-eighth of the production. But the two main forces which make for a larger demand for raw cotton are the increase of spindles actually Installed and the pressure of capital In various parts of the world Into the cotton manufacturing invest? ment field. The total number of spin? dles in the world is estimated by Brit? ish authorities at 1^2.830,000. Cer? tainly much larger amounts of capital must have 'gone Into other, stages of cotton manufacture. This Is the'situ? ation with which the Arkwrlght Club in the United States and- the cotton consuming assoclatiqnsMpf j?reat Brit? ain are attempting te^rreal by a mod? erate degree of curtailment in mill consumption. ? , "MODUL IIOMEV AT WINTHROP. Unique Department Added to State College for Young Women. Rock Hill. Oct. 22.?The "Model Home," at Winthrop College, is one of the recently added features and promises to be one of the most inter? esting and popular departments of this fine institution. The building used for this purpose is that which was formerly the residence of W. J., Cherry, Esq., and was at one time outside the campus, but was taken in several years ago, when the grounds were enlarged. Miss Carrie Hyde, of Georgia, who has been thoroughly prepared for the work, and has also had successful experience therein, is in charge. A brief talk made, in chapel by President Johnson explains this new ?and for this section unique?fea? ture. He said in part: "For several years we have wanted to have a model home at Winthrop to give our students practical experience In home-making and efficient and ec? onomical housekeeping?the most useful art of all tho arts for women and one that requires sound Judg? ment, common MBit, di-cretlon, dill tense, ability Of a high order, for its mastery, and OM that assun s the highest rewards tor its skilful practice ?contentment, health, happiness: The frying pan is at the bottom of much i ill bontthi nnhnpplnees and failure, One cannot be happy and chrerfu 1 or a really good Christian with dyspep? sia.

Two Sharper*) Victimized Fayettevlllc, Representing Themselves as Em? ployes of Steel Company. Charlotte, N. C, Oct. 22.?The story sent out from Fayetteville a few days ago to the effect that the American Press Steel Company had closed a deal for a water front site on which It would erect a plant giving employ? ment to 500 men, turns out to be a clever swindle. Two men represent inging themselves as William Searing, chief engineer, and J. P. Jones, super? intendent, of construction, of the Pitts burg concern, well dressed and smooth, selected the site and prepar? ed to sif.n deeds. First, however, 20 feet must be excavated to be sure of solid foundations. Advertisement was made for laborers of every description at high llgures and each was required to pay 50 cents for his check with name and number. Today the two men disappeared, leaving unpaid board, livery and numerous other bills, and 75 laborers are each out 50 cents and two days' work. COTTON MARKET CONDITIONS. Prices Went Down, Then Gained and Finally Closed Lower on Big Visible Supply Figures. New York, Oct. 22.?The cotton market showed continued nervousness and irregularity today, but rallied af? ter an early decline, with the close steady at a net loss of 2 to 8 points. The opening was steady, at a decline of 9 to 12 points In response to dis? appointing cables, reports from Bos? ton that spinners had decided upon organized curtailment, realizing local bear pressure and heavy selling by arbitrage houses against purchases in Liverpool. It was estimated that dur? ing the first hour arbitrage houses sold fully 100,000 bales In this market, but offerings were well absorbed af? ter the Initial declines and when straddle business was withdrawn the market made a sharp advance. De? cember rallied from 13.67 to 13.79, and May from 13.75 to 13.89 on cov? ering by early sellers and a renewal bulls' support, the latter being en? couraged by the posting of storm warnings for the gulf and reports from Memphis that the completed fig? ures of the National Ginners' Asso-1 elation were even more bullish than the preliminary statement of yester? day. The advance, carrying prices to within 1 to 8 points of the season's high records, was followed, however, by a renewal of local bear pressure on the big into-sight and visible sup? ply figures and the market later in the day was irregular with the close anywhere from 6 to 9 points under the top. Tenders of about 10,000 bales were reported on October con? tracts. Private I advices from the South reported no change in the in? terior spot situation and the markets officially early reported were about l-16c lower to l-32c higher. Further advances were reported in some lines of cotton goods during the day and it Is claimed that Fall River manufac? turers in some Instances so far sold ahead that they are unable to join immediately the short time move? ment. Receipts at the portb today 84,105 bales, against 77,519 last week, and 67,805 last year. For the week 440, 000 bales, against 440,608 last week, and 417,675 last year. Today's re? ceipts at New Orleans 17,290 bales, against 8,160 last year. Spot cotton closed quiet, 10 points lower; middling uplands 13.95; mid? dling gulf 14.20; sales 3.850 bales. Fu? tures opened and closed steady. PRESBYTERIAN SYNOD OPENS. Dr. T. W. Sloan Elected Moderator For Meeting. Charleston, Oct. 23.?The first ses? sion of the Presbyterian Synod, held last evening in the First Presbyterian church, was attended by a large num? ber of persons, Including the two hun? dred or more delegates who have al? ready arrived in the city, and many of the members of the congregation, Following the address of the r* v. Dr. Unity Alexander White, of the Co? lumbia Theological Seminary, on "The Calvlnlsts of South Carolina? Their Duty In tin4 Present Crises," s/hleh was thoroughly enjoyed, a short business session was held, and the Kev. Dr. T. W. Sloan was elec t* .1 moderator to serve during the meet? ing, to succeed Dr. White. in a recent issue the London Acad? emy discusses "The longest word in the Bngllsh language," stating that "this moot point has never been sat? isfactorily settled." "The English? man's real jawbreaker is a Welsh word user which Mr. Justice Law? rence once, at the Anglesey Assizes, asked an explanation from Mr, Byrn Roberts, M P., 'What is the meaning "i tii>' letters "i? k" after the name Llanfatr?' The answer was, it is an abbreviation of the village of Llan fatrpwllgvt yngyllgogerychwyrndrobwl landyslllogogoch. How la this pro? nounced? It will take some beating. This word of fifty-four Isttsrs, if re psatsd often enough, is said to be an excellent cure for toothache." LEVER DISCUSSES CLEM SON. Says College's Duty is to Help Farm? ers of the Staie. Batesburg, Oct. 21.?The only fea? ture of the Trl-County Fair today was the speech of Congressman A. F. Lev? er, to the farmers. Mr. Lever did not reach here until a late hour, having come from Lexington in an automo? bile over bad roads and in a steady downpour of rain. On account of the inclement weather, the crowd was not as large as it would have been, had the weather been clear, but those, who came to hear Mr. Lever left sing? ing his praises. Mr. Lever, after delivering one of his plain addresses to the farmers, telling them how they could build up their lands and be independent, branched off on Clemson College, and discussed at some length the exhsting condition of the institution. Inas? much as public men have heretofore evaded, seemingly so at least, discus? sing the troubles at Clemson, Mr. Lev? er's remarks will be of interest to the people all over the State. He spoke in part as follows: The work of the institution in the past furnishes a sufficient justification for its establishment in the first in? stance and a continuance of the sym? pathy and support of the people for the future. I think it only fair to myself, and to the institution, for which my friendship is well known, that I should be candid enough to confess my agreement with the feel? ing, almost universal, wKh the friends of the institution, that in its relation? ship to the agriculture of the State, its attitude has not been sufficiently sym? pathetic and comprehensive to war? rant a feeling of entire satisfaction with it. Its friends are justified in the disappointment they feel in the fact that the institution has failed somewhat to measure up to the re? quirements as the leader in the solu? tion of the agricultural problems which from time to time arise in the progress of the State. There has seemed to be something of an aloof? ness upon the part of the institution with respect to the farmers of the State, an attitude approaching the un? sympathetic, somewhat of dazed and bewildered inappreciation of the agri? cultural possibilities, needs and prob? lems of the State and an insufficient understanding of the hopes, ambitions and purposes of the South Carolina farmer. The farmers of the State are not unaware, nor lacking in appre? ciation, of the good work which this institution has done; they only feel that it has not done its very best work nor measured up to its full possibili? ties for effective agricultural leader? ship. This, is their complaint. The future of this institution, its usefulness and Its influence, Will be1 determined by the attitude it assumes toward the agriculture of the State in J the future. Its popularity; yes, its usefulness, will depend upon the em? phasis it gives to agriculture, both within the institution and in the State. The College must realize, rec? ognize and live up to the fact that while it is a technical and mechanl ical institution it is first an agricul? tural college. Not only is it primari? ly an agricultural college, but It falls short of the full measure of its obli- j gation If'It falls in the pioneershlp of the agricultural thought of the State. It must not only teach agri? culture to the boys who go to it, but it is its duty to give Impetus and in? spiration to the agricultural masses of the State. It must carry the result of its experimentation, the conch? sions of its science out to the farm themselves. It must walk amoi.g those whom it would Inspire and lead. It must learn the problem! with which the farmer has to deal, and help him in a man to man way to solve them. It must inspire its boys with the possibilities of State in agrl-* culture; it must instill in them a love for farm lite; it must demonstrate to them that farming as a profession, is as high, as noble, as honorable and as profitable as any of the other pro? fessions to the end that the cities of the State shall cease to drain the country of its best brain and Intelli? gence. Great possibilities for good lie before this institution. That it will measure up to them is the con? fident expectation. ?Mr. P, c.

Cody and Major Lillie in the productions incident to their exhlbl- 1 tion. They have been practical illus? trators of American history for the twenty-five years they have, as enter? tainers, been before the public. For their present tour they have selected The Battle of Summit Springs as the chief scenic feature of the exhibition. This battle was one of the deciding conflicts in reclaimirg the West from Indian control. It was July 11, 1869, that Gen. E. A. Carr, in command of a detachment of U. S. cavalry, and guided by Buffalo BUI as his chief of scouts came suddenly upon the camp of Tall Bull, chief of the "Dog Sol? diers," and engaged them in one of the fiercest struggles in the annals of I A Cowboy on a Wild Horse. Indian warfare. The conflict was sharp and relentless but when Buffalo Bill shot and killed Tall Bull the tide quickly turned and the Indians suffer? ed utter defeat. In this reproduction of the Battle of Summit Springs, Buf? falo Bill will erjact his original role, and the death of Tall Bull will be shown with vivid realism. Previous to the actual battle the customs and camp life of the Indian will be shown in the erection of a typical Indian vil? lage, and the details of Indian recre? ation, sports and pastimes will be de? tailed with fidelity to life on the plainr when the redskin was monarch of tha.. vast domain. Other typical western scenes will be made a part of the Wild Wrest exhibition. There will be The Great Train Hold-up by Indians, a Holiday at "T-E" Ranch, in which the plainsman's pleasures will be revived, and the Attack on an Emigrant Train, depicting the dang? ers attendant upon the life of the pioneer. The Congress of Roughrid ers will also constitute an important part of the Wild West entertainment, horsemen from all parts of the globe having been assembled for the pur? pose of giving exhibitions of their proficiency as masters of equestrian expertnett and reckless daring. The entertainment entire will constitute a thrilling display of unusually inter? esting and novel exhibitions. ?The pleasant purgative effect ex? perienced by all who use Chamber? lain's Stomach and Liver Tablets, and the healthy condition of the body and mind which they create, makes one feel Joyful.

Evans, Sr., was burned to the ground on last Wednesday night. The flre was discovered about 10 o'clock. The cool; room and din? ing room were wrapped in flames and was lapping over the main body of the building when the alarm was giv? en. It is supposed the flre originated from some defect in the stove flue. A few things of very little value were saved. The building was insured for $1,700, which will only partly cover the loss. Mr. Evans has been very unfortunate as his barn, stables, horses, wagon, etc., were burned only four or flve years ago. Feeding Farm Hands.
