I'osy Horton. the six-vear-oJd sten 1

ious accident last Friday afternoon, i
He, with his mother, was visiting the
city cemetery, when the little fellow
climbed upon one of the tombstones, '
pulling it over on his leg, crushing
the bone severely; physicians thought j
at first it would have to bo amputated,
but the last report they had hopes i
of saving it. Mr. Rector has secured
the services of Miss Alice Austell as !
nurse.
Mr. Frank Hart has been on the
sick list for the last few days. We
hope Frank will soon be out again.

ACCUSED MAN SAYS
FISHER IS A LI AI
ATLANTA, Oct. 22.?"He's a lia
and a dirty hound, but I'm sorry fo
tne poor iooi ai mai:"
. So spoke J. C. Shirley this morn
ing, the man who was accused by Ir
W. Fisher of murdering Mary Pha
gan. Shirley has instituted charge
of criminal libel, just as was expect
ed, but he is not bitterly vindictive
and it looks today as if Fisher i
more likely to become the inmate o
an asylum than of a prison.
The whole wild tale has been com
pletely exploded, as the vagary of i
diseased brain. Efforts of the detect
ives to find any reason why Fishe
should have sought to injure Shirle;
have proven fruitless, and so far a
is known the whole fabrication wa
without purpose.
Shirley is preparing, for his owi
satisfaction, to furnish evidence tha
will show where he was the efitiri
day of the Phagan murder, but thi
is not asked by the authorities, an<
Shirley is doing it simply for his owi
satisfaction.
The Frank case therefore stand
today exactly where it stood befor
Ira W. Fisher was ever heard of. Th
lawyers for the state and defens
will soon be grappling in a fight ove
the motion for a new trial, just a
bitter as that which was waged ii
the court room for the first trial.
Through the many technical objec
tions to rulings will come in for thei
share of discussion, the efforts o
both state and defense are principal
ly centered on the charges thfct mem
hers of the Jury were biased.
The defense has in hand affidavit
showing that three members wen
prejudiced and biased, provided tin
affidavits are true. The stat3 on th
jthcr hand has numerous deposition:
attacking the reliability of the mei
who >;ave the affidavits to the state
so that the issue will be to a largi
;xtent one of veracity.
$2,000,4)00 LOSS DUE
TO ANTHRACNOSE
" i
_ WASHINGTON, Oct. 14?The cot^
ton crop suffers an annual loss of
about $2,000,000 as a result of the
r disease known as cotton anthracnose,
_ or boll rot. In a report on the subject
the department of agriculture
^ says that since the fungus can live on
dead cotton bolls in the field for at
q least a year and in the seed for two
D or three years, there should be roj
tation of crops, cotton never should
_ be planted on land where anthrac
nose was prevalent the year previous
0 while fully as important is the seO
lection of healthy seed.
The department says the disease is
- reported as present in every cotton
field in Georgia, in every county of
pp South Carolina, in all parts of Mississippi,
being worst in the delta and
h bottom lands. Its occurrence is more
or less general throughout the entire
cotton belt.

8 Pendleton, S. C., Oct. 9. 1913.
Dear Sir?I note with a great deal
of pleasure your request for suggestions
as to what Union needs. It is
a good idea.
Union needs first of all, good roads
- leading to the city from every direc[j
tion; she needs for all her citizens to
pull together with a long pull and a
strong pull. Everybody get hold of
l) the rope. She needs also for every
r, one in Union and Union county to
g adopt a plan and carry it out to the
letter to do all their trading in Union
county; do not send out for a single
thing.
- I am glad to see the improvement
^ in The Times, viz, of boosting your
town. rou were lacking in this line
or a man thinks so from a distance
s and he is the one you should meet,
n I am very much interested in Unn
ion and if not disappointed, will be
back in your city some of these days
permanently. I will attend the fair
in your town on the 22-22-24, with
many others. E. G. EVANS.
