According to a letter received from harles Special, written in Richmond j a., Charles Gregory, the world's jlampion high diver was either acci- ^ ;ntally killed or committed suicide j i Toronto,. Canada, on October 14, f hile attempting his high diving act. j harles Grecorv wns u son of M*? a Gregory, who lives at Simpsonville j this county. He has two brothers, f am, who lives at Pacolet and Lonnie j ho lives at Cowpens. , About four years ago in Union, harles Gregory married the daugh- t r of J. R. Porter, who now works V >r a paper in Yorkville. The lettef ' Special says that Charles Gregory divorced from his wife, and that rief over their separation may have Lused him to commit suicide. The tter claims that the man's actions ? ere queer a few moments before he 1! ade his plunge to death. The latter further states that the ^ leged dead man leaves a large sum * cash, also an insurance policy for ^ considerable amount in favor of s married sister, "who lives in " >uth Carolina." Charles Gregory n is a married sister living in Wood- 11 iff. the wife of W .T V TWI11. h the information contained in the b tter is correct, Mrs. Devill will t obably inherit a large sum of mon- r r from her brother. a The full text of Charles Special's b tter follows: t "I would be very glad for you to s lblish the fact that Charles Greg y, the world's champion high diver, a as instantly killed yesterday after- t >on in Toronto, Canada, while at- ii mpting to give his free exhibition, s le young diver is a Spartanburg -t >y, and was employed by the Coney ii land Amusement company. He has fi me relatives in South' Carolina and p divorced wife also. h "It is the opinion of the show v anager that Gregory committed s icide. A .few days before his death p ( made the remark that he was sor- n for one thing only, and that was y i failed to see his wife before he 0 ft the United States, as he never a pected to return. Gregory dressed S( usual when the hour came for his y t, and acted queer, hesitating on a ting up the ladder. A few minutes fore the dive he told his ladder boy bring his coat and he did so. Greg- * y tore up a bunch' of mail fmd f nded the coat to the lad fuui aaumtr fou may have that coat, as it is too V Tall foit me." t "No one knows anything about his .i ople at all, so he will be buried in inada. The young diver wilf be put a' /ay nicely. "All the shows in Canada and some c< the United States will be closed ** day and tomorrow. Gregory has a st of friends and a broad reputa- ** >n in the show world. The mana- ^ r states he owes the diver $500 ^ id that the man also had a large ^ lount in his trunk; that the entire U1 nount would be turned over to his forced wife or to any. one proving ir be a nPar relative ef tVio ' t-1 11 be buried by the Elks and Eagles P jng a member of both. s< "I do not know anything about the tl nount of insurance he carries, but f< is a large sum, and the insurance 15 left to his married sister in South hi irolina.

Smith representing the Southern States Cotton Corporation Outlines Flan Proposing to pay 15c for Cotton. Tifty representative farmers and usiness men of the county gathered n the court house Friday at noon to icar an address by Mr. Smith, vho was introduced by Hon. W. W, fohnson. Mr. Smith presented the ollowing plan: He comes representng Southern State Cotton Corporaion. Comes following the "Star of lope." Speculation has its greedy ingers on the throat of the farmers, lut by wise organization the farmer an rectify the wrongs. I am going to talk about 15c coton. How and why. The industrial vorld is in a state of unrest. The nighty power of "Right" will preail. Kings' thrones are shaking. Jhina has after 4,000 years, torn own her thrones and is establishing i nation of free men. Old Ireland s coming to her own through "home ule." In our own country our peoile are beginning to think and to do. n 1913 senators came to be elected y the people. The Farmers' Union uilds upon the organizations that ave lived and died. It has more noney, more members now than ever r? its history. In our Southland we ave a staple that the world always ? _ _ j i mi - * us u uemanu. mere is no sUDstiute. It will ever increase in its delands. The demand today is far in dvance of production. The automoile industry is today using more coton than the increase in production hows. "What" and "Why" are things I m here to talk about. I've been In he bank, in the cotton exchange and [i the cotton patch. The farmer hould be complete master of his coton. The farmers' method of marketrig is crude in the extreme. Who xes the-prices of your cotton We ile all the year's crop on the market i a short while and say what will ou give me? You must have a ystem of marketing your cotton. 81 At* /ifinf i.v. VI VI vuv i ai met d aic UIIUCI lortRage. This is caused by the fact hat the average cost of production f cotton is 11 1-2 cents. The averse price gotten was 10 cents. We )ld our cotton at $7.50 a bale less lan cost. That's why your farms re under mortRaRe. The Southern States Cotton Cororation come with a plan by which e take out of the market the cotjnnot needed, and hold it for prics3 St are conducive to fair returns, he Ramblers now set the prices in Iverpool and New York. 60,000 timers' Rirls help to Rather cotton ad the speculators put the cotton on le market and thus auction off the >tton and so auction off your daughsrs' labor. "Live and let live," is le true doctrine for all. I've no resect for the fellow who Rets it all. he farmer doesn't stop to think, he Southern Cotton Corporation of?rp 15c for your cotton. You Rive s 10c a bale to make the contract indinR. The contract is numbered I Hlinlipfl f n Ymi I'onn Ann onrl wn le other. We pay 3-4 of the market ripe on your cotton; then issue :ript and hold the cotton subject to le script. You hold till we sell it >r 15 cents, in the meantime we pay per cent on the script which you old. Or we give you script up to 11c pound, due in 90 days, with 0 per snt interest, and in addition we give nother script for 4c a pound due acording to contract, when cotton is old, with interest at G per cent.
