LOCKHART JUNCTION l.ockhart Junction, Oct. 24.?This /s fine October weather such as is needed for gathering the crops. Prices of cotton go up a little and down a little, varying both ways. Well it is always the case. There is a gain and then a loss, but it has to be, it seems to keep speculation up. This is my weekly letter, and 1 am going to try and give all the news daily, in the Daily Times paper. I think everybody can and ought to take the Daily Times. I believe in supporting our home enterprises and if the people support this dailv paper. you will make it equal to any in the State that is in circulation, so lef us do all we can to help old Union county in all its enterprises. While I attended the Monarch Fair I visited some homes in that tcwn and amonp them was an old friend of mine, H. N. Johnson, who lives at that place. He is always glad to see his friends. His wife has been an invalid for a number of years, unable to walk, but seems to be in a happy state of mind. M~ Johnson's son and his wife live with them. They had a very fine garden of cabbage that will keep all winter and they are sure fine. They looked fine growing and will taste good this winter with a little bacon. These good people have many canned vegetablese and they showed me their potato house, where they intend to store potatoes for the winter. I like to see things like this and like to know that they are going to live at home. Great preparation has been made by the people in making and taking care of everything to eat. I will say before quitting this subject that I was told the Monarch Mill people had one hundred hogs that would net twenty thousand pounds of meat and one man told me that he knew one fellow that had three hops that would make about 900 puounds of meat. \ saw on exhibition down there 15 head of fine milk cows. What these people are doinp others can do. Mrs. M. A. Cunninp of Libertv Hill while on her way to see her dauphter, Mrs. A. Ijee Gault, had a stroke of paralysis on the train.?

The Jonesville Drug Store has had the interior of the building redecorated. I attended the District Sunday School convention held at New Hope on Sunday. The convention was well attended and several good speeches made. Every one seemed to be benefitted and resolved to do more work for the Sunday School in the future. Nashville Amusement Co., who had a show here several years ago, is here again. His show is clean and well liked. Henry Tinsley, a progressive colored man of Jonesville township, subscribed $1000 to Liberty bonds. Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Gault and mother of Union motored to this section Sunday and attended the convention. I met PL W. Griffin from Charleston, where he is with the Coast Artillery.

Says he felt good when he crossed the Mason and Dixon line. There is no place like old Union county, so he says, and so we all say. Moxy.

Klaw & Erlanger's "Ben Hur" at Columbia < Spectacular magnificence, dramatic splendor and religious ecstacy are the most notable concomitants of Klaw & Erlangers massive production of "Ben llur," which will be the offering at the Columbia Theatre, Columbia, S. C? on October 20-27. During the 17 years which have passed since the original production of this noble drama, its owners have not only kept it up to its original grandeur but have elaborated and developed the possibilities of the production each season untli today it stands unrivaled in beauty of establishment, unsurpassed in dramatic significance and power. Dealing with the earthly life of Jesus, the most important period in history, "Ben Hur" shows the world at its most wonderful point in magnificence ana wealth, for Rome ruled the world and Caesar Augustus was emperor of the mightiest realm the earth had known. Into this time of display and pomp came the lowlv Nazarene, the Christ for whom the d nation had longed, and it is this per- e sonality of Jesus that, permeating h the fabric of the Wallace-Young a drama, makes it a sermon as well as a drama of tremendous significance. " The chariot race will be the most effective reality ever seen in a thea- \ ter, either in this country or abroad. 7 Its development into an actuality may p be considered the triumpe of stagecraft. In this incident twenty horses a and five chariots will be shown ap- ^ parently racing at break-neck speed, * the animals galloping with all their " might. Every vital described by Gen- ^ eral Wallace in his book will be seen j when the play is presented in Co- g lumbia. This will be the greatest repre- t sentation of "Ben Ilur" ever given k on tour. To present the marvelous ' spectacle no less than 250 people are ^ required. A special popular feature ? of this engagement will be the popular scale of prices, ranging from 50 cents to $2.00. Patrons of "Ben Hur" are earnestly requested by the management to be in their seats promptly at eight o'clock in the evening and two o'clock c in the afternoon, as the curtain will rise promptly at these hours on the j marvelously beautiful tableau, "The Stnr nf* RntKloKom M ?: ? ^wuivuviil, WHICH IClJUirt'S \i the entire auditorium to be darkened and it will be impossible to seat late-comers until after the prelude is t over.
