 Many of the farmers are becoming alarmed at the condition of their cotton crops. Those who planted late say that they are fearful lest they will have to plant over. The seed has now been lying in the ground for two weeks or more and Is not coming up. and most of the planters seem inclined to believe that cold April is indicative of dry May and if this be the case the seed will rot before it will sprout. In many sec tions farmers are waiting for rain to finish the work of planting.
 Circuit Court is under full headway in Clayton this week where the civil docket is being disposed of. It is not thought that the court will be engaged longer than two or three days as there are no cases of serious importance.

 ALARMED, HOWEVER.
The Killing of John Hartsook by Hugh Watson Has Caused Bloc ton to Be Somewhat
 Wrought Up.
S3 Commerce St.

Centreyille, May 4.-(Special )-The kill ing of John Hartsook Monday night by Hugh Watson is causing considerable ex- citement at Biocton. where the shooting occurred. Yesterday Sheriff Crawford received a telegram from Blocton from friends of Watson stating there would probably be an attempt made on the jail here last night by friends of the dead man to do injury to Watson, and re- questing the sheriff to remove Watson to safer place. The sheriff after com municating with conservative citizens of Blocton. decided there was no danger of mob trying to take the law into it's hands
 The miners have not worked any since the killing, and there are constant ru- mors that there Is likely to be more killings over the affair Watson is what is known as a company man and the dead man. Hartsook, was a miner, and as a result of the killing two factions exist and the feeling is very bitter.
 The day has not yet been set for the preliminary trial of Watson.
