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. She says t<
Knock was (he first prophet. This is t?
correct and it can be found in the 3rd a
chapter of Jude. t
Mr. Golden Harmon, who has been
sick for several days, died at his home (
last Tuesday, 10th, and was buried at a
New Hope the following dav. He was n
of a family of 12 children, only six c
living, three brothers and three sis- '1
ters. He died in his (>9th year; he has V
six children living, two daughters &
married, the rest are at home. His
wife died several years ago. He was ?
a good Christian man and a good citi- ^
zen and will he missed in this com- ^
munity. We are in sympathy with his
sorrowing relatives.

URTAILMENT A NECCESSITY?
BUT ONLY TEMPORARY.
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

ich revenues since the European war

3.75 per cent. The results of operaon
for October are not yet in hand.
Lit for September the decrease in

"The manapement of Southern rail

It is clearly a necessary war

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.
The life of society, the life of the
/orld. has constantly to be fed from
he bottom.
If you want to make a place wholeome,
the best instrument you can use

You cannot stand still, you must
msh forward the things that are

MULLINS MAN DIES
FROM HIS WOUNDS
B. I). Strickland Succumbs to Injury.
Shot By Frank Price.
Mullins, Nov. 15.?B. I). 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-;

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
the head of the firm of D. E. Strickland
& Co., a merchandise and clothing
business of Mullins. which has
been operating successfully for many
years. He was prominently connected
with fraternal organizations, being
a member of the Knights of Pythias,
Odd Follows, Masons and Woodmen
of the World.
Mr. Strickland is survived by his
wife and young child.
