A Mysterious Shooting.

COLUMBIA, March 13.-There was
no more deservedly popular and high
toned young man in Columbia than
A. Rurwell Summers, and his untime-
ly death will be sincerely regretted by
every one. Ten minutes before his
death he was talking pleasantly with
his fellow employees in the Carolina
National Bank. It was just about FIVE
minutes after the time for closing the
bank that a pistol shot was heard by
those in the bank. Mr.. Joe Bell was
the first to be attracted by the noise,
and seeing Mr.: Summers stretched on
the bed. he called Tor Mr.. Walker, the
teller of the bank. A hurried exami-
nation showed that Mr.. Summers had
been shot and DR.. Talley was sent for.
but before he arrived death had come.
It appears that Mr.. Summers, as was
his custom, went into the back room
to take off his working clothes and put
on his street apparel and wash himself
and while handlin pistol of Mr.. Tena-
pleton was fatally wounded. Ar.
Templeton occupied room on the
ground floor of the bank building, and
Mr.. Summers, who was bycicle Ell
thusiast, took his pistol from under
the pillow and used it on his bycicle
rambIes, and it is thought -taat While
he was breaking" the pistol ne held
it in front of his person and it went
off. The bullet took effect in the heat
and was inclined downward. Tie
coroner's jury, of which Mr.. D. Card
well was foreman, after hearing what
testimony there was, (no one saw the
shooting), brought in the following
verdict: THAT A. Burwell Symmers
came to his death by a wound in
ficted by pistol in his own hands,
whether accidentally or Intentionally
we don't know" It might be said that
there was no young man who had a
pleasanter home circle and more rea-
son to be anxious to live. He held
with credit to himself and entire sat-
isfaction to the bank the position of
bookkeeper and the bank officials stat
ed that his accounts were absolutely
correct and that in his capacity as
bookkeeper he did not have the hand
ling of any moneys, and the bank had
the utmost confidence in him. 1t was
only an hour before his death that Mr:
Summers wrote a note to a friend
about matter he expected to use later
on, showing at that time he had no
idea that the need for it would never
arise.

CHEAPER FERTILIZERS.
How the Farmers Propose to Get Ahead Of
Phosphate Men.

COLUMBIA. S. c.. March l3.-Ever
since the convention of the farmers
was held and the fertilizer manufact-
urers declined to accede TO their de-
mands as made in that convention, it
has been matter of speculation as to
their resolution not to use any fertii-
zers, or 60 ahead and make purchases
of small amounts, Or. devise some
other scheme. 1t seems that the last
plan is being put into operation: They
have devised scheme. according TO
what Col. D. P. Duncan. the manager
of the State Alliance Exchange, had to
say yesterday, by which they,are to
buy separately kainit, dissolved bone
and cotton seed meal, manipulating
them themselvesand thus making their
own ammoniated fertilizers at a saving
to themselves of s. ton, making 1t
cost only $13 a ton This is the way
the farmers expect to save a few dol
lars and avoid paying the prices of the
fertilizer companies for their manlpul-
ated fertilizers.
Col. Duncan says that cotton seed
meal has been cheaper this year than
ever before. The lowest price reached
per ton was S14. It then went up to
$14 so in more than car load lots and
SIS a ton in car load lots. The price
has now within the last week advanc-
ed 5Ocents per ton, showing that large
Quantities of meal are being sold.
Yesterday thirteen tons were sold here
at $14.25 ton. The scheme of the
farmers, as explained by Col. Duncan,
is to purchase kainit and dissolved
bone and manipulatethe aixturethe
selves, taking one-third of kainlt, one
third of dissolved bone and one-third
of cotton seed meal. Col. Duncan
says that this makes the most effect
i've fertilizer that farmer can use.
The kainit is obtainable at SO a ton
and the dissolved bone at 50. Thus
for say-$39, the farmer making his
own manipulation, he can secure three
tons of good fertilizers of the same
grade he would have to pay $16a ton.
The only drawback is that cotton seed
oil companies do only cash business
and all the mea has to be paid for in
cash. 1t is stated that the fertilizer
manufacturers bought their supply
of cotton seed meal early in the season,
when the price was Sl9 a ton, and OF
course they have to have their profit
thereon, hence the high prices of the
ammoniated goods. Col. Duncan
says that the farmers are paying for
their meal in cash in most instances; !;
manipulating it with their employees
on rainy days at practically no cost to
themselves. Col. Duncan says that
owing to the large cotton crop last
year the oil mills have made much
larger amount of meal than ever be-
fore. He says this homemade mix
ture is being used much more largely
than the prepared ammoniated goods.
He says that so far as the orders
through his exchange go-and most
of them come through the exchange
up to date as compared to last year
not more than 90 per cent. of the fer
tilizers have been moved. In proper
ton to the other goods bought the far
mers have invested much more largely
in the cotton seed meal homemade
combination than ever before.-State.

The Atlanta Constitution asserts
that the improbable price of cotton
affects the farmers less sorely that it
does the business and trade of the
South and of the country, and this
statement is undoubtedly true, for as
the Constitution says: THE farmers
can live. He has the sun and the
soil to sustain him. To produce cot
ton at loss hurts, but it does not
paralvze him. He can most assur-
edly turn his attention to something
else. He can cease to plant cotton
altogether and still survive; bnt. mean
while, what is to become of the busi-
ness interests. the trade and commerce
that have built themselves up and are
sustained entirely by the money that
has been brought into the country by
the sale of cotton and cotton good.'
