If the people of the town want another cotton mill they can get It. We hare a proposition from responsible parties that another mill will be built next spring, besides the Buffalo, and the chances are good to hare it located within the corporate limits if the council will order an election "To exempt, from municipal taxation, for five years any manufacturing concern that may hereafter be built within the corporate limits," The business men are hereby given j j I notice to go to work and see that the t election is carried. It will not ex- a a ompt any of the mills now here but 0 get others to locate In town. If we c p lose this opportunity some other g town may get it or it will be built <3 outside, and most of the advantages a of trado and all the future taxes lost, b We want a Board pf Trado badly, a just now, to take up the movement c and push it to success, but as no j,1 time is to be lost some of the mer- d chants merchants * must volunteer. * They can count on The Times for all * the assistance possible. P More will be said next week as we t had gone to press when the informa tion was received. | ? Shooting Scrape. a Yesterday about noon the town was | thrown into a flurry of excitement by 1 a report that Balaam Lyles had shot Mr. James Long, the Deputy Sheriff. ' Several grabbed up their pistols or guns and went hurrying to the scene of action and as the place was about a mile out of town, through Main street, the women and children were greatly excited by such a commotion. It seems, from what we can learn, m that Balaam, who has not the best reputation for honesty, has been accused of assisting his neighbors in | gathering their com crop?at night. Consequently a search warrant was issued and placed In the hands of Deputy Sheriff Long to execute, he [ took Chief of Police Culp along with him to assist in the execution. They J found Balaam at home, on Mr. Win. Munro's place, and after reading the warrant insisted oil the crib keys being turned over to enable them to make a search. Balaam demurred aft first but at last agreed to get them and went into the house for them. . As soon as he entered the house he | reached over the door and instead of " the keys, got his shot gun and opened g fire on the officers without any warnj iag?when he had emptied his gun he ~ | took leg bail and though both officers i unfimbered and opened fire, they 1 failed to bring down their game and the negro is still at large. The report ^ of the shooting was soon in circulation in town, with various versions of the wounded, and the friends who heard that one of the officers had ^ been shot were very indignant. It is lucky that Balaam ran so well for ^ had one of his buck-shot hit either of w the officers his hide would not have G been worth much when caught. ?j! Hnf if a oil rrol I iliaf onrlo urn 11 ?

Is is perfectly plain hat even the best of the imitations cannot compare with them, for these re the real, live natural plants caught in their fullest bloom and beauty, nd made immortal. It is an established and genorally accepted fact, that f all articles used for decorative purposes there is nothing as handsome or an add greater charm to a well furnished home than graceful drooping alms and tropical plants, likewise for church, hotel, lodge or ball room, tudio, millinery^ and dressmaking parlor, or interior store and window ecorations wherever it is sought to give a charming effect. But the exrfime difficulty of maintaining the growing plant in the adverse atmospheric nd climatic conditions common to the greater part of the country has een nn unsoivaDie problem to admirers ol these handsome specimens 01 ropical plants, tho consequence being that heretofore they have been seen lmost exclusively in conservatories where their true value as decorations an never bo appreciated. To cultivate these plants in their native tropical omo is simply a matter of nature, but every effort of the greatest botanical tudents of recent years has been exerted in the direction of devising or iscovering a method whereby these delicately nurtured palms, plants, ferns nd grasses could be either more hardily cultivated or treated after growth n such manner as would insure their endurance of all climatic changes rithout actually keoping them In hot houses. The process of treating these Jants is still a secret of the discoverer, and we have pleasure in showing line of these goods in this city. Soe display at our store.
