CORPORAL JOHN SWELLING
Having a Picnic Putting Down the
 Rebellion.

Corporal John Swilling, of the S4th Infantry band has written a Phoenix friend from Cabanatuan, P. l., under date of August IS, a letter in which he seems to think soldering, at least his own experience, is not such a blood thirsty profession as it is sometimes represented to be. He says in part:
 Army life Is all right. All us fel- lows in the band have to do is to play guard mount in the morning. practice an hour and then give a concert in the afternoon. One good thing, we don't have to stand guard. The rainy season has set in and there is water every where. It has rained two weeks With out stopping. It is nice country. All we have to do when we want banana is to step out of quarters and pick bunch, as they grow everywhere.
 You ought to have been with us the night of the Sth of July. About o'clock the rebels thought they would surprise the outposts, so they fired d volley at them but never touched them Then the rebels commenced on the town and say, how they did pour it into us. The band is furnished with Krags and the commanding officer sent us down to hold the river bridge. Hold it, did We? Well, not a Googoo came near us. At daylight we were told we were good fighters and were sent back to quar- ters.
 "One thing more I want to tell you, and that is We get everything good to eat; fresh beef twice week. fresh bread and canned fruit and lots of nice things. Wish you would send me some papers. We seldom get papers and are lonesome for want of reading matter

BOTH PREPARED FOR TROUBLE.
Number One Used Winchester and

Colt Took Better Aim and DoWned
His Man Very Neatly.

Passengers ARRIVING in Americus by

uIars of fatal shooting affray be-
tween two negroes, just after the train

killing of one and the arrest of his

A pistol ball in the brain of one of

The two. 1t seems, had engaged in
a dispute over a game of cards recently
INDUCED in. one claiming that the
other had his money and refused to
surrender it.
In the height of the debate one OF
the Senegambians opened upon the
other with his Winchester, but missed
the mark. It was fatal error, as in
stantIy the human target brought his
own artillery into play and planted a
Colts A in the topknot of his friend
The man behind the rifle never
knew what struck him.
The train crew made a prisoner of
the negro who had done the killing
and when the train arrived at Fitz-
gerald delivered him up to the officer
at the station. The shooting occurred
in the negro coach and created some
excitement among the occupants there.
The names of the negroes concerned
in the shooting were not ascerta1ned.

STATUE FINALLY HAS ARRIVED
Came Yesterday From Savannah After
Weeks Delay.

The marble statue which will sur
mount the handsome Confederate
monument here has finally been re-
ceived, ARRIVING yesterday morning
from Savannah where it was shipped,
via New York, from Garara, Italy. The
statue, which represents a Confederate
soldier, has been in transit more than
a month, and the members of the La
dies Memorial Association and Daugh-
ters of the Confederacy are rejoicing
that it is here at last and their noble
work nearly completed. It is indeed q
beautiful piece of italian sculpture and
will cost abont $3.50, the freight and
duty alone being 1912, The ladies have
not paid all due upon the monument
yet, but hope soon to raise the sum re-
CURED. The statue, true to life, is that
of gallant private, "the man behind
the gun" It stands seven feet in
height, giving the monument a total
height of nearly twenty-five feet,

INVESTED IN A FERTILE FARM
A Combination of Law and Agricul-
ture Promised,

Sumter's handsome senior represen-
tative, Col w. T. Lane, is going to
join the ranks OF agriculturists and
cultivate cotton while expounding
Blackstone and compounding new
laws. Yesterday, with MIR. Jarrett
Wilson, he purchased the Sea farm of
405 acres, and has already applied for
admission into the Sumter County
Agricultural Society, The success of
other members of the local bar as ag-
riculturists, notably Col. j. R. Will
Iiams, Col. w. A. Dodson, Col. E. Q.
Speer, Col. J. A. Hixon and others, to
say nothing of Col. Joe Ansley's phe-
nomenal success as rabbit farmer,
has been an inspiration to their breth-
rem at the bar, and it may be expected
that at no distant day every Americas
lawyer will be able to discuss harrows
and plows with the same familiarity
they now discuss homesteads and
mortgages.

Young Man Takes a Lengthy Nap in

There is young man living out be-

a record equal to that of the seven

PRICES OF GOODS ARE HIGHER.
Market Has Advanced SIS Per Bale
Recently.


An advance of So per bale in the price
of cotton goods makes the outlook
brighter for the mill men, and if prices
continue to advance bit all the mills
now closed down can resume opera
tions. An Americas merchant told The
Recorder yesterday that the re-
cent advance in cotton goods at the
mills was at least So per bale, though
of course this does not affect the prices
of goods at retail, as our merchants
bought when goods were at the lowest
notch and will continue to sell on that
basis so long as their stocks hold out.
When the mills resume the price of
raw cotton will again advance very
materially.
