A Dreadful Moment.

a conductor or the Park line had an
experience the other day that is quite
certain to cause him many uncomforta-
BILE minutes in the future. His car
stopped at Spruce street to let middle
aged lady on, and as she took her seat
the conductor gave the motorman two
bells, and the car shot ahead. When
the conductor entered the car, the wo-
man in question was looking out Of the
window and did not see his outstretch-
ed hand.
Fare, please" remarked the con-
ductor.
The woman evidently did not hear
him, for she did not turn her head.
Neither did she hold out the necessary
coin.
Fare, please" said the conductor in
a louder tone.
But the woman paid no heed. Then
the conductor touched her on the shoul-
der and in a tone Of voice that rang
through the car exclaimed;
"Your fare, please. lady"
Then the woman turned hastily
around and looked at the conductor.
The knight Of the bellcord gave one
gasp and fed to the back platform.
TIE woman was his mother-in-law.-

| 1t is an easy matter TO sit in an office

is oftentilnes. and very properly so.
paid little attention to, because it pro-
ceeds from the minds of men who know
nothing at all about practical farming
and who reason absolutely upon theo-
retical lines. We seldom venture much
advice upon this subject, but We do not
think it amiss to call the attention OF
farmers to few things. Cotton has
brought remarkably good price the
past season. That means tremendous
acreage will be planted throughout the
South this year. With good, or even
average seasons. the year 1901 will
probably record the largest crop ever
made in the world We have no aSSur-
ance that the price next fall will be as
good as it was the past. More horses
and mules will be sold in January and
February in Manning this season per-
hapS than ever We're sold in any TWO
months before. They are here now and
the people are buying them. The rail-
roads are kept busy hauling fertilizers,
and this is not only the condition here,
but all over the country. Nearly all
provisions are high and will probably
90 higher. Have YOU arranged for a
good provision crop: If so, then make
all the cotton you can. but it is unwise
for any man who lives by agriculture TO
plant his whole crop IN cotton and eN-
pect to buy his provisions. in the face
of the present indications Of the largest
cotton crop ever made, and the conse-
quent result of a lowering in the price.

The Two Senator's.

Congressman Jones Of Virginia told
this story Of his father: Directly after
the war Jones senior was sent to the
state senate. An old slave who had
belonged to him was also elected to the
senate The two drew adjoining seats.
Senator Jones was very courteous and
In addressing his former slave always
called him senator. The old negro
stood it for some time and finally said:
"Massa William, don't like dis sena-
tor business. KANT come down to
yo' house and visit that cook OF yourn?
suhtinly would like permission to Wis
it yo' kitchen"
The request was granted, and while
Senator Jones was in his library the
other senator was down in the kitchen
visiting the cook.

Yours truly,

Summerton. S. c., Feb. s, 1901.
When Mr.. Burgess addresses a com
munication to The TINES which needs
explaining we shall endeavor to com
ply with his wishes, but when he pro-
poses to substitute himself fer one who
is in hiding, we must define. 1t is a
well known fact that there are some
people with whom we will have no con.
tention. and it is also well known that
we do not propose to dignity certain
people by permitting ourself to become
involved in controversy with them.
1t is always pleasure to receive letters
from Mr.. Burgess, but we would much
prefer receiving from him something
of his own production written directly
to US than something written by an
other.
Mr.. Burgess says he did not write
the Citizen" letter, but has asked for
it to be reproduced over his signature.
That is all right, we have no objections.
We cannot understand why Mr.. Bur-
cess comes to the relief of anonymous
"Citizen," unless he hopes to get an
explanation from Us. If this IS his pur-
pose he will be disappointed for the
present, but if he will be patient there
will come time when explanations are
in order and will be made. In other
words. we do not propose to expose our
position that our political enemies
might arrange this to suit emergen-
cieS.
There is only one matter in the whole
business which may need explaining by
US, that is the matter of recommending
the appointment of the Board OF County
! Commissioners without consulting the
delegation. This will be done at the
proper time: at any rate the Senator
assumed the responsibility. As far as
the printing matter is concerned, that
comes within the discretion OF the com
missioners and with which we have
nothing to do.-ED. TINES.

(By the Associated Press

Charlotte, N. c., May 21.--A special
from Asheville, N. G., says;
THE heaviest and most disastrous rain
fell today in Asheville, and the surround
ing country that has visited this vicinity
in years Bottom land is ruined and hill
sides are yawning gulches. Bridges are
gone and many roads are impossible.
The water is up to the floors in many
dwellings and has reached the fires in the
electric light plant. The city is in dark
ness. The waters of the French Broad
highest point on record. The water is a
foot deep in the ice factory and flour
mills. At Biltmore, the Southern Rail-
way tracks were washed out of place and
twisted into all sorts of shapes.
Hundreds of Asheville people have
focked to Biltmore today to see the dam
age done to the ideal village of Mr.. Van
derbiIt. When the millionaire and his ad-
visers planned the town an insignificant
creek was not taken into account. Today
this stream did surprising damage. One
row of cottages was flooded and the peo-
pie forced to move their belongings to the
upper floors. Some beautifully paved
streets were covered with rubbish. Small
trestles at Biltmore and on the main lines,
of the Southern and Spartanburg and
Asheville roads we're washed away and no
train will be operated on either line be-
fore tomorrow
