" LOCKHART JUNCTION ft Lockhart Junction, Nov. 1(5.?Th<> J? rain has stopped the sowing of small grain for a few days, but we are in j, hopes there will be fair weather till the farmers get their grain all planted. Oats can be put in the spring, si but wheat fill ought to be sowed before January. n Well, every one is expecting better v prices for cotton as the New York ex- s change is to open up today, the 16th. Rain Sunday kept some people from n church and Sunday school. This writer was in Cross Keys sec- n tion last week and stopped at the si home of Mr. Ed. Smith where I spent the night and enjoyed a nice time, n Mr. Smith is one of the successful rr farmers of that section and says he is sowing wheat and oats; makes o enough bread stuffs to do him and makes cotton his surplus crop. a Mr. J. H. Hodge of this section h made one hundred and twenty bushels of oats this year on 6 acres. This v was on common poor land and he tl would have made 35 or -10 if he could have gotten rain in time. These were s the Appier oats that sold for CO > cents per bushel. So you see that beats cotton at the present prices. f Mr. II. N. Johnson of Monarch r spent several days with his son in this section, but left for his home today. He was born and reared in this section. He takes The Times and likes the correspondent letters. s The question that Mr. J. E. Hughes y of the Sardis section asked some time t; ago in The Union Times was answer- T ed by Miss Florence Haney.

Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 12.?"As indicatip the necessity for the policy of .rict retrenchment inaugurated by outhern railway company about the liddle of October," said President airfax Harrison today, "attention is illed to the fact that, while there as a small increase in pross operanp revenues in July, there has been steady and propressive <lecrcase in ich revenues since the European war jpan. For Aupust this decrease. mounted to 1.20 per cent, for Sep-! mber 8.33 per cent and for October | 3.75 per cent. The results of operaon for October are not yet in hand. Lit for September the decrease in ross operatinp revenues of 8.33 per ;nt, resulted in a decrease of net opratinp revenues of 27.81 per cent. It as not/until the tendency of revencs was clearly apparant after the ose of September that retrenchment I as bepun with the purpose of holdlp expenses within actual revenues his has been both a difficult and a isapreeable task, but we believe we ow have our situation safely under jntrol.

President Wilson was the chief figre the other day at the celebration i Pittsburgh of the 70th anniversary f the founding of the Young Men's hristian association. He made the rincipal address of the occasion and le following are some of the most ertinent points he made for the bonlit of young men: Young men are embarassed bv havlg inherited their fathers' opinions. I wonder if we attach sufficient itnortance to Christianity as a mere inLrumentality in the life of mankit I. Character is a by-product and anv lan who devotes himself to its donation in his own case will become a elfish prig. Christ came in to the world to save thers, not to save himself. An association of Christian young len is an association meant to put its houlders under the world and lift. Young men are strong; Christian ion are the strongest kind of voung ?en. I have a hate for a particular ?ort f person that is the moral coward. A man who is virtuous and a cowrd, has no marketable virture about im.

Strickland, a prominent merchant of Mullins, succumbed today to wounds inflicted by Frank Price in a shooting affray which occurred near the city about 7 o'clock last night. The instrument used was a .41 calibre pistol, from which live shots were fired, three of them taking effect, one of them piercing his thigh, another the liver and the other perforating his intestines. The shooting is said to have grown out of an altercation occurring on the principal street. The two men were neighbors. Mr. Strickland was a prominent merchant and has considerable farming interests in Marion and adjoining counties. rratiK I'rice is thought to have | caught the northbound train at S o'clock this morning at Latta, where he drove last night. Mr. Strickland drove to his home j and was met in the front yard by I'rice. who approached within several paces. It is said that before Mr. Strickland had descended from the buggy five pistol shots were fired, and he fell from his seat in the buggy to the ground, bruised and bleeding. Other persons were standing by the buggy when the shots were fired. The shots came in such rapid succession that no one tried to stop I'rice. The shooting was followed by much confusion. Some tried to conceal the news from Mrs. Strickland, but she had heard the shots and upon reaching the front yard became panicstricken. Physicians were summoned and upon examination of the wounds decided to rush him off to a hospital. A successful effort was made to hold the passenger train, which waited 25 min- I utes. Mr. Strickland was placed on a cot and carried to the station, and was) accompanied by relatives and friends) to a hospital in Wilmington. The phy- j sicians there agreed that life was too) far gone and at 1 o'clock this after-; nnnn lio /lirwl Unnf K** ?? ?#* mvv.i ..v m Hivmnio wcuij; u|ici aiiru ! upon. His body will be brought here J tomorrow morning. Mr. Strickland was well known throughout this section of the State by reason of his large volume of business and farming interests.

He was prominently connected with fraternal organizations, being a member of the Knights of Pythias, Odd Follows, Masons and Woodmen of the World.
