When a blue jacket untangled the

painted red, for Andrew had gashed
him under the left eye, and as a
small artery was cut, the blood was
spurting. Dr. Sarratt dressed the
wound, tieing the artery and taking
several stitches in Abel's face.
Mayor McNally thought that Andrew

Tuesday night between H and 9 o'clock
the barn aud contents, belonging to Mr.
William R. Walker, in the north fast

was filled with new mown hay, principally
peavines. There was also a large
lot of oats, wagon, buggy, phaeton, harness,
wagon gears, plow stocks and
other farm tools lost in the fire. Fortunately
there was no live slock burned
except two small calves. The horse was
taken out of the stable and thus escaped.
No certain cause or origin of the fire is

Springs section of Union county, or
September HOth picked 416 poundi
of cotton from sunrise until sundown
and on Monday, Oct. 6rd, he picker
ElO pounds In same number of hours
The cotton was picked clean and frei
from burs or trash. The field o
patch of 2$ acres that Mr. Qile
picked this cotton belongs to Mr. W

and fertilized. From this parcel c
land Mr. Betsill has already gathere
2,052 pounds of seed cotton, an

that he has been working in the gol
mine all of this year and this was h!
first work on the farm, th
year, therefore the more wonderfi
his swiftness in pioking.

The men in charge of this mill say
that the oil pays all expenses and a

that hulls and meal are extra. The

in Newberry has been and now is 27
cents per bushel of 30 pounds.

wealthiest and most independent

and the public generally.

the near future. Tuere are good
signs of rain this morning, if they
fail. The cotton is nearly all opened
and most of it picked out, ginned
and sold and debts more than usual
paid with the cotton money, which is
satisfactory to both debtor and creditor.
