MORE SToRMS.-The past week has been
prolific of storms Besides those elsewhere
noted, there was a severe storm in Mississippi
last Saturday, by which the town Of Monticello,
on the Jackson railroad was completely de-
stroyed, only three houses being left, which
were dwellings Oh the outskirts. Nothing like
it was ever seen in this section. Ten persons
were killed instantly, five white and five col
ored.
On Saturday afternoon tornado swept
across the Chicago, st. Louis and New Orle
ans Railroad between Summit and BOgue-
chitto, Miss, prostrating the telegraph poles
on both sides of the track for mile and up
roofing trees, many of them falling across the
road. No accounts have yet been received as
to the damage done in the country through
which it passed. A dispatch from Shreveport,
La, of Sunday says The heaviest rain, wind
and hail storm experienced for many years
passed over this city about daylight yesterday.
Trees and fences were blown down in all parts
of the town. st. James (colored) Church was
lifted from it's uprights and blown away some
distance.
An Augusta, Ga, dispatch of Sunday says:
A terrific rain storm, accompanied by hail,
visited this section about midnight last night,
lasting several hours. 1t is feared that con-
siderable damage has been done to the crops,
especially the young cotton, which will neces-
state replanting. The estimated rainfall is
five inches.
Sundays dispatches to the New Orleans
Times say the water in the Mississippi rose
half an inch on Saturday. owing to the pre-
valing southeast winds. Cattle and horses are
dying upon the old fort and other places in the
vicinity where they have been placed on
mounds and platforms. The people are actu-
ally suffering at places near Morgan City on
bayous, the rations issued on the 18th for
seven days having been exhausted. Appica-
tions are being hourly made for food. 1t
cannot be possible that our situation is rea-
lized, otherwise the outside world would take
greater interest in our condition and inaugu-
rate measures of relief.'
\ dispatch from Franklin, La, says: The
water is twenty inches below the highest point
reached this season. 1t is now at a stand
from the effects of the strong southeast winds.
The impression prevails generally that moth
ing is to be expected from the cane which has
been submerged in this section for the past
six weeks. An inspection shows it to be SO
badly damaged that it will not even furnish
seed for the next season.
DEATH OF SENATOR WALKER, OF CHEs-

ROCK HILL COTTON MILL.

A correspondent of the Chester Bulletin
gives the following interesting account OF the
operations of the cotton mill at Rock Hill
These mills are driven by $50 horsepower
Corliss engine, steam for which is supplied by
two immense boilers that daily consume six
cords of wood to keep up steam. Since they
have been running, the results have been high
ly satisfactory, the mills being run to their
fullest capacity and all the product of yarn
being placed, ahead of time, at good figures.
All the product is engaged up to the first of
May, after which time the entire manufacture
will be held for higher prices. The principal
manufacture at present is No. 2O yarn, Which
commands from p to % cents in Philadelphia.
About five bales of raw cotton are consumed
daily, and 1000 pounds of yarn produced there
from, the mills being started at O'Clock, a.
M, and shut down at 7p. m. There is no
night work.
There are eighty-fve operatives in the facto-
ry, and they receive from fifteen cents to SIS
per day, For their use, twenty neat and COM
Portable cottages have been erected in the Vi
cinity of the factory, all being laid out into
streets. The company is contemplating the
erection of chapel of worship for the use of
the operatives, and it is to be 'ected adjacent
to the cottages. 1t is proposed that the minis
ters of the various denominations in town
unite and conduct the chapel services alter
nately.
The capital stock of the Rock Hill Cotton
Manufacturing Company is 500, 1000, but it
will shortly be increased by an additional stock
of $25,O0O. About the latter part of the pres
ent week 1000 more spindles will be put in,
which will swell the total number to 1910,
the present number being 6,240. The officers
of the company at present are as follows !:
Presidential. E. Hutchison Secretary and
Treasurer--David Hutchison; Superintend-
emit. r. Neisler; Directors-J. NJ. Ivy, J.
r. London, w. L. Roddy, A. H. White, w.
B. Fewell, of Rock Hill, and j. l. Middleton,
of Baltimore. The annual meeting of stock
holders of the company will be held on the last
Tuesday in May, when the election for officers
will again take place.
OF another important enterprise contempa-
ted in Rock Hill, the same correspondent says !:
Col. j. NJ. Ivy, whose business dash and un-
rivaled enterprise is as much admired in Ches-
ter as in Rock Hill, will, at an early day, in
company with w. B. Fewell, Jr., convert their
steam gin and milling establishment into a
cotton seed oil mill and a complete CONNER
cial Touring mill, retaining at the same time,
on more extensive scale, the steam ginning

The STATE DEMOCRATIC EXECUTIVE CON-
MITTEE.-A number of the members of this
committee assembled here yesterday for con-
sultation on the various subjects which now
interest the people of the State. An infor-
NAL conference was had, but, owing to the
constrained absence of several members and
the necessity for the presence of others in the
Court in Charleston this morning, no definite
conclusions were reached.
1t is understood, however, that the Legis-
lature will be called as early in July as posi-
BILE and that it's work will be confined to re-
district the State and the legislation incident
thereto and the opinion prevailed that the
session should not last more than ten days.
There seems to be great unanimity in char
acterizing the prosecutions now in progress
as an infamous attempt to convict innocent
men in order to intimidate the whole people,
but that the purpose had been defeated, 50
far as ultimate harm to the prosecuted parties
was concerned, and that the effort had result
ted in completely solidifying the Democratic
party in the State Columbia Register, 10th.

duty induced him to leave his sick bed and re-

grew worse until the close of his useful life on
Friday night.
General Walker was born in Chester in 1920
and graduated from the South Carolina Col
lege in 1910, and in 1912 was admitted to the
bar, of which he soon became Appointment and
successful member. He entered the Confeder-
ate service as Captain in the First South Caro-
lima Cavalry and subsequently rose to therank
of Lieutenant Colonel. He was wounded at
Gettysburg and on his recovery joined his com.
mand and was in all remaining struggles until
the surrender. He was elected to the House
from Chester in 1865 and to the Senate in 1876
and reelected in 1878. He was man of high
character, quiet and unobtrusive manners, and
true in every relation of life.-ColenaJia Reg
