of farms in the country from 4 ,564,-
TAI in 1890 to over 5,700,000 at
present. This is in disproof of the
the theory formerly prevalent that
the evolution of our agricultural
activities would tend to the con-
centration of ownership, in the
same way that other industries
have actually been combined to so
great an extent. Mr.. Wright
ascribes the opposite movement
which has taken place-frst, to
the opening Of government lands,
and, second, to the division of
large farms which has come about
owing to the fact that in many
cases it has been found that the
best results can be obtained by
working a moderate area.

LUCY CORRALL SHOT.
Her Assassin, Captain Nelson,
Afterwards Kills Himself.

New York. Oct. 10 Mrs. Lucy
Corral, one of the handsomest
woman in his city, was shot in
her room today by Captain Neil
son who entered her fathers house
and shot her three times. Sup
posing that he had killed her he
pointed the gun at his own head,
pulled the trigger and fell dead.
Mrs. Corral says that she did
not have the slightest acquaintance
with Captain Nelson, but the
police this afternoon found n
miniature picture of him in her
cabinet and they are inclined to
believe that she has been telling

PoSToFFIcE RECEIPTS.
Business OF the Local Office In
creasing With Each Quarter.

There WAS difference of 1924 .63
in the sale of stamps between the
quarter ending Septem ber 30, 1900.
and the quarter ending Septem mber
30, 1901 During the first quarter
of last year the sales amounted to
S2.olS 81 and in the quarter Just
ended S2,243 worth of stamps were
sold.
The money order business last
month aggregated little over
SS 5000 or $1,000 more than the
corresponding month last year.
The revenue derived from the
rental of postotiice boxes during
the quarter amounted to S276.
There are $50 boxes. For more
than a year there has been cry
ing need of more boxes. aud today
there are three times the nun Der
of calls for them than can be sup
piled If the number of boxes
were increased to the present de-
mand the amount derived would
easily exceed 500 more per quar-
ter Postmaster Davie is figuring
on installing several more of them
at an early date
The private mail boxes certainly
need be augmented as the town is
growing and the lack of them be-
comes more evident daily. From
time to time additional boxes have
been placed, but at last Florence
has outgrown its present mail
facilities.
The increase in postal business
speaks mighty well for Florence
when it is taken into consideration
that during the last six months
the department was not afforded
the former patronage of the mills
which have been closed down dur
ing the past half year This alone
is estimated to add from $50 to $50
per month to the office revenues
Last year the sales of postage
stamps at the local postoffice fell
short Sli0 of sufficient money to
secure the free delivery system for
the city. The amount of sales re-
quired annually is $4,000 for this
service, and last years receipts in
the aggregate was S9,S9O.

THANKSGIVING.

The Christian Endeavor topic for Nov.
"a is found in Isaiah XIV, Is. And what
are we to be thankful for? Is it not a
mistake to thank God only for the pleas
urable and happy things? The SORROWS
privations, diSappointmentS and suffer
ings we have experienced have in many
instances been of greatest benefit to u.s.
Sweetness of disposition comes to many
persons not by natural inheritance, in
born, but only after years of bitter re-
verses and heartaches, when from ex-
perience of pain and seeking for
strength and relief of soul the Savior
has been found as comforter and gentle
ness of word and deed, blossoms and
fruits from the inner soul culture which
has learned to say in all sincerity, Thy
will be DONE"
How much we have to be thankful for!
Do you ever stop to reckon UP your mer-
cies? Are you ever glad with q godly
gladness that you are who you are, and
where you are, and as you are? What
q blessed individuality Is possible fo-'
each of us. No one else sees and hears,
comes to you in a manner somewhat diff
ferent from what He ever appeared to
anyone else in all the world. Do you
catch the full meaning of this and it's

to sing a song no one else can sing
round out to perfection an individual eX-
istence unique among the numberless
multitude.

God for what He is. He is God and as

FOR THE MAN WHO FAILS.


The world is a snob, and the man who
wins
Is the chap for its moneys worth;
and the lust for success causes half of
the sins
That are cursing this brave old
earth
For its fine 10 go up, and the worlds
applause
Is sweet to the mortal ear;
But the man who fails in a noble cause
Is hero that's no less dear.
IT'S true enough that the laurel crown
Twines but for the victor's brow:
For many a hero has lain him down
With naught but the cypress bough.
There are gallant men in the losing
fight.
And as gallant deeds are done
AS ever graced the captured height,
Or the battle grandly won.
We sit at lifes board with our nerves
high strung.
And we pay for the sake of fame.
And our odes are sung and our ban
For the man who wins the game
But I have a song of another kind
That breathes In these fame-wrought
gales
An ode to the noble heart and mind
OF the gallant man who fails!
The man who is strong to fight his
fight
And whose will no front can daunt
If the truth be truth and the right be
Is the man that the ages want.
Tho he fail and ole in grim defeat,
Yet he has not fed the strife,
AMI the house of earth viii seem more
sweet
For the perfume OF his life.

wILLIE.s PROFESSION.

When Willie was little boy his doting
father saw
But one thing that was fit for him, and
that was the law.
See how his high brow bulges,. Willie S
father often said;
Its as plain as Henpecks wife is that
he has a judges head.
But Willie's loving mother somehow fam
cied she could see
That doctor was the only thing her son
could ever be.
Hes so noble and so gentle and SO
clever" she would say:
All. he'll have splendid practice
just know he will-some day..
Willie's grandma told his parents that
his manner and his speech
Indicated very clearly that he ought to
learn to preach.
So they argued over Willie, of whom each
of them was proud
Argued long and argued often and occa-
sionally loud.
Willie of the gentle manner. Willie of
the bullying brow,
Regularly acts as dealer at a faro table

We hope for mosquitoes pools;
And other less things to our hearts

Nor the inspirationless Bible they exc
From the colorless notions of God.
Whenever it comes to a ereedless church,
Where a crosSless gospel is preached,
The old ship of Zion will take a lurch,
And, rudderless. soon will be beached.
Don't ask me to room in a childless fiat,
On henless eggs break my fast.
With cowless butter for animal fat,
And caffineless coffee at last,

And nerveless scholars in schools,
And ballotless, spiritless citizens,
And sapless society fools.

With horses, and pokers, and "skeeters,'

for me to suffer misfortune and to have

hardest position he had in the bottling
works for thirty days

consecutive days he would pay me $3.50,
