cient fire department., saved our city a
disastrous conhagration on Friday
morning. Officer Douglass, while on
his rounds saw smoke coming up the
alley way between DR.. S. A. Reeves
store and Mr.. c. NJ. Surgeons bakery
on Russell street. On investigation
he found that the bake house of Mr..
Sturgeon, located in the rear Of the
store, to be on fire. He immediately
sent in the alarm from Box No. %,
and, although it was. half-past two
O'Clock in the morning and intensely
cold, inside of ten minutes our fire
department had two good streams of
water on the burning building. The
fire was soon put out. BY the admir-
able work of the fire department a bad
conflagration was averted, as the
building in which the fire started was
old and was surrounded by a number
of other large wooden buildings and
sheds. Had the fire gotten good head
way these would have caught and
then there is no telling where it
would have ended. Mr.. Sturgeon lost
about seyenty-tive dollars worth Of
stuff and the building was damaged
some. The fire department IN sub
DUNG the fire as quickly as they did

The knights Of Honor.

The friends of this order-the pio-
neer of Mutual Beneficial life insur
ance-are in the best of spirits, and
they have the best of reasons for their
good feeling. For the crash predicted
by the uninformed has not come, but
in it's stead condition Of financial
healthfulness, which places the grand
old order far above many Of it's COM
petitors and up to the best. Death
claims are paid not only with regular
ity but with promptness exceeded
by no other organization. The order
stands on no technicalities, but just as
soon as it's simple form for the proof OF
death is filed, the claim is paid. A
contested claim in this order is rarely
known, for the beneficiaries are always
in the ha of friends. Under the
change of Ues made a few years ago
it offers to the young mi TN the cheap
est as well as the best protective in
surance in policies of $500, 81, 900 and
$1,000. The following figures testify
eloquently to the great blessing this
order has been to the world and to
this community and show the strength
there is in combined benevOlence:
The order at large has paid to the
widows and orphans of deceased mem
bers over SSl 600, 600; beneticiaries of
the deceased members of Orangeburg
lodge have been paid S77, 500, and this
lodge paid into the w. & O. fund last
year S5, 37O. 10 and received for bene-
ticiaries $500 This isa record to be
proud Of, and when you are told that
the X. of II. is not safe you need not
look far to find either gross ignorance
of facts or motive purely selfish If
not venal. 1t collects and diSburseS
about two and a half million Of dollars
annually, and it does it at less cost
than any organization Of its kind in
the country.
Ex-Gov. Sheppard of this State is
the Supreme Dictator, and all other
officers are men of the highest charac-
ter besides being under bonds with
the best sureties to be obtained.
Al of these give their time and )ahorS

KEEP THE ACREAGE DOWN.
That Is the Advice Given Our Cotton

That Is the Advice Given Our Cotton
Farmers by an Expert.
MI. Alfred B. Shepperson, one OF
the most careful and competent Ste
tisticians in the country, has written
a very interesting review Of The
Cotton Situation From a Solely Dis
interested Standpoint, for the last
number of the Baltimore Manufsctur-
ers' Record. He believes that the re-
markable advance in cotton due to
speculation in cotton futures, and
that there is no truth in the cDnten-
tion that this years cotton crop Will
be about one million bales less than
the last crop, and inadequate for the
actual requirements Of the Spinners.
He believes that the present CONNER
cial crop will equal 10,70o,ooo bales,
averaging 4S4 pounds net, OK about
The size Of the last crop.
He believes further that upon the
acreage of last season it would have
been possible for crop Of twelve mill
lion bales to have been made. In MS
opinion, there is no deterioration OF
seed or of soil in general way and
be utters the warning that alluring
as the presnet price Of cotton must be
to the Southern farmers, it may prove
as treacherous as the sands of the sea-
shore. The icentive is very great to
plant In the spring ar immense acre
age in cotton at the expenses of food
and forage crops. The result nigh
prove unfortunate should cotton de-
cline sharply under the prospects of a
full crop, and the farmer be compell-
ed to pay high prices for grain and
provisions.
The News and Courier thinks the
warning given by Mr.. Shepperson
ought to be needed by the cotton
planters of the South. Only a few
days ago one Of the leading newspapers
of the South, carried away by the
idea that 12 or "A cents cotton had
come to stay, urged the farmers to In
crease the acreage this year. 1t is
uUpCu ULldu Uuc picu VS1o VIA hoo Ava
low such wild counsel. Mr.. Shopper
son, as Secretary Of the Committee of
the United States Senate, appointed
to examine into the matter of cotton
production and manufacture in this
country and abroad, reached the con-
clusion that the average cost of cotton
production in the South was about
6-1-2 cents per pound. Surely the
planters have not forgotten their very
recent experience in producing the
staple at less than actual cost. II the
acreage shall be increased this year
and an enormous crop should be pro
duced, all the ingenuity of the bulls
will not be able to sustain the market
at the present largely speculative hg-
ures. The right thing and the safe
thing for cotton planters to do Is to
raise their own bread and meat first,
and then to grow as much cotton as
they can as q money crop.

State Secretary Knebel Of the
Young Mems Christian Association
was in Oraugeburg recently comforting
with the local Directors.
At a meeting of the Directors the
State Secretary recommended that
the Association decline the very gra-
cious offer made by Mr.. l. S. Harley
to give his hall on the third floor of
the recently completed Harley Build
ing, to the Association free of rental.
The State Executive C0nmittee OF
Young Mems Christian Associations
have found it frequently unwise to
recommend the use Of the third floor
Of any building, unless the second
floor can be utilized for the main work
Ct the Association. It was thought
at one time that it might be possible
to use the splendid hall SO kindly Of
fered by Mr.. Harley, but after q joint
conference it was mutually agreed
that the Association would adopt one
of two plans to have a residence buill
especially for the Association and
leased by them for term Of years or
to secure second floor on some build
ing already erected or one that is be-
ing planned for and have the rooms
arranged to provide for the all r7und
work Of the Association.
A committee consisting Of Messers.
NJ. O. Dantzler, q. G. Bryant, H.
Won Olsen and A. W. Summers have
been appointed to secure a suitable
place. The committee is at work and
hope ere long to make defnate an
nouncement. They are determined
to secure the very best Of quarters
and furnish them in an attractive
home-like manner. The quarters
when secured will include a gymna-
sium with Bath rooms, Reading
Room, Parlor, Committee Room,
Night School room, Lobbyand Cen
eral Secretary'S office. It is perhaps
not generally known that the Direc-
tors have decided to call man as
General Secretary who has been re-
commended very highly by the
State Committee and the probability
is that be will accept the call which
will be rendered him, just as soon as
the matters Of a home for the Associa-
tion is definately determined upon.
State Secretary Knebel before lcav-
ing the city sopke Of Mr.. l. S. llar-
ley's public spirit in Offering the ball
and stated that Mr.. Harley was CO.
operating with the rest OF the direc-
tors in securing a suitable place for
the Association. He also added that
Mr.. Harley could have the satisfac-
tion of knowing that his offer Of a
Hall led to the organization Of a
Young Mems Christian Association in
Orangeburg.
There may be some delay in getting
every thing in shape but no one need
become restless, the Directors and the
State Executive Committee are work
ing together in this matter an6 they
are determined to do things right
even If delay is necessary.

A Fatal Wreck.

A head.on collision occurred at Pee
Dee on the Atlantic Coast Line Rail.
road on Saturday night, and Engineer
Bruce Taylor, bis colored fireman and
a negro train hand are killed. The
wreck occurred on the fill at the foot
of the Winona hill on Pee Dee trestle.
Train No. 10, in charge Of Engineer
Mclaughlin going to Fayetteville and
an extra freight from Wilmington In
charge of Engineer Bruce Taylor went
together head-on at full speed. The
only reason assigned for the collision
is that the conductor Of the extra
train overlooked the non-arrival at
Pee Dee of No. 10, which was six
hours late and went ahead. The two
engines sand several cars are pile of
wreckage and it will take some time
to clear the main line. Engineer Tay-
lor is from Wilmington, N. G., and is
married. The wrecking train with a
force of hands went from Florence to
the scene to clear the track. All
trains from Wilmington were aban-
doned. Trains to and from the north
will run by Darlington. BennettsvilIe,
MaXton and Parkton over the old
Charleston, Sumter and Northern,
and Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley un-
til the line is cleared and will be de-
layed several hours, the rail not being
heavy enough to allow the heavy en-
gines to run over them and small en-
gineS will have to be used instead.
