Glover Is going to try mighty hard to
sustain her reputation as the leading
baseball town of this section. Every
body is cordially invited to spend the
day with US and take in both attrac-
tions
The protracted meeting at the Bap-
tist church, mentioned in my last let
ter, came to a close last Friday night.
Mr. Woodward did the preaching and
fully sustained his reputation for elo-
Quence and earnestneSs, and was greet
ed by good sized congregations at
each service. There were twenty-four
additions to the church, twenty three
by profession of faith and one by let
ter. The converts were baptized at
Union church on Sunday by Rev. w.
z. Hurt, who Is pastor Of both
churches.
Mr.. M. L. Smith has recently receiv-
ed lot of cotton samples from a we'll
known Boston concern. The samples
come from forty-seven different cOun-
tries Of the world, and are quite inter-
esting as curiosities. Mr.. Smith says
that in the whole lot there are only
two Of any special commercial value,
they being those from Egypt and India.
The machinery for the Glover Ginning
company has arrived at last and is
now being installed by Mr.. Porter of
Columbia, and in less than ten days
will be ready for business. The elec-
trio power line from the cotton mill to
the ginnery is being put up by Messrs.
Walker Latimer and Charles Berry Of
Yorkville.
At stated in a previous letter the
work Of installing the electric lighting
plant for the town, has been greatly
delayed because Of the inability to get
material, but now that all the neces-
sary paraphernalia has been shipped
II will be less than thirty days before
the work will be completed.
Quite severe lightning storm struck
us last Sunday night, and a result
the oil switch in the transformer house
was burnt out. While there was no
serious damage, still the mill was una
BILE to run until IL o'clock on Tues
day.
Work is now progressing satisfacto-
rily on the new mill building. They
have plenty of material, and II is quite
probable that the building will he COM
pleted by the first of November.
Mr. H. L. Wright returned home
from Morehead City on Wednesday

OF course, Dan" Is too modest to say
so, but from his report your CORES
pondent Is satisfied that he was the
crack fisherman of the bunch, having
landed nine large trout with only five
casts Of his line.
