FiShermen'S Luck.

Two men were out fishing; one had
a license, the other hadn't. A keepe,
approached, and the one that had q
license ran away.
The keeper was a good runner, and
an exciting chase ensued over a mile
and a half of nice ploughed field. AT
last the keeper got up to the run
away.
"Now, sir, where's your license?"
1t was produced.
"Then why did you run away?"
"Oh, Pm fond of exercise" an
swered the man; shut don't you
think you'd better ask my friend if
he has one?'
The friend was by this time about
two miles off, and the keeper only
whistled, then went or his way a
sadder and wiser man.-Tit- Bits.

SOUTHERN COTTON ASSOCIATION
What Was Done at the Annual Ses-
sion In New Orleans.
Eriday's Proceedings.

New ORLEANS, Jan. 12.-That the
sum of the work of the Southern
Cotton association was to be a dec
laration for 15-cent cotton, with re-
duction in the form of diversified
ton, was practically settled in the
afternoon session of the convention
when Chairman Dancy, Of the COM
mittee on holding, in advance of the
presentation of its report, announc-
ed that the committee had unani-
mously decided favorably on that
proposition. The announcement pro-
voked the convention to a whirlwind
of cheering.
The premature announcement of
the conclusion of the committee was
forced by advices from New York to
the effect that newspaper dispatches
and Wall street reports printed and
circulated there indicated a lack of
harmony among the elements max
ing up the convention and dissen-
sions over the 15-cent proposition.
President Jordan brought the mat
ter before the convention. He re-
ferred to the reports which, he said
he was informed. appeared today in
all the New York papers, as to bear
DOPE" evidently manufactured by
agents of the spectators who were
sent TO mingle with the delegates
Of the convention.
The report that the convention did
not have in its purposes plans and
work, and hearty support, sympathy
and cooperation of every bank and
merchant present, he declared to be
absolutely without foundation.
Alexander H. Smith, of Greene
county, Georgia, urged the sending
of a telegram announcing that the
south needed no money from wall
street. but had it to lend. He said
the five banks in his county were
pledged to absolute support of the
farmers and that not another bale
there woud be sold under Is cents.
T. f. MeSSengale of Georgia, moved
that the president be instructed to
send a statement through the Associ-
ated Press that the bankers, mer-
chants and farmers were in perfect
unison of thought, and that he cor
rect the statements to the contrary
circulated by Wall street bear oper-
atorS. who were doing all in their
power to break up the Cotton Grow
ers' association. The resolution was
adopted.
Mr.. Goodwin. of Georgia, said it
was evident that New York was be-
ginning to anticipate from the con-
structiOn of the Panama canal, the
transfer to New Orleans, Galveston
and Mobile of supremacy in the rich
trade with the Orient. when these
people find that they can no longer
control u.s." said Mr.. Goodwin, they

STATE SANITARlUM.

There Is a plan on foot to convert
the Kings Mountain Military school
property into a sanitarlum, to be OPP
Grated as an adjunct to the state hos
pital for the insane.
The idea had its origin with DR..
Babcock, superintendent Of the state
hospital for the insane and has the
endorsement Of the board Of regents
of that institution.
AS matters now stand, the state
hospital in Columbia is overcrowded,
and 1t is absolutely necessary that
more room be provided. In these
circumstances, DR.. Rabcock conceiv-
ed the idea CT establishing an adjunct
in another part Of the state, and he
was induced to suggest the old school
property here because of personal in
formation as to its suitability and
availability
If present plans go through, and
the general assembly Is agreeable,
the school property will be purchased
by the state and steps will at once be
taken to put it in shape to accommo-
date a particular class Of pay patients,
principally inebriates it is under
stood, who can be treated more sat-
isfactorily here han in Columbia.
The Kings Mountain Military
school property originally cost some
thing like $4,000, and the buildings
that go along with it could not be du-
plicated for a much less sum today;
but it is understood that the owners
of it are willing to sell it for $4,000
or $1,000. which, to anyone able to
make use Of it. would be quite bar
gain.

HOMICIDE IN FORT MILL.

F. N. Edwards, a section master
on the Southern railroad, lost his
life in Fort Mill last Sunday after
noon as the result Of a desperate
affray which he himself provoked
with Policeman J. M. Gamble.
The trouble, 1t seems, arose over
a lot Of express matter that had just
been put off at the depot from a
passing train. Edwards was inspect
ing the various packages and when
the policeman told him to let them
alone, he insisted that because he
was a railroad man he had as much
right to look over the express as
anybody.
The dispute developed into a bru-
tai quarrel which lasted some little
time, and which was perhaps all the
more unreasonable because Of Ed
wardss condition. Edwards asserted
his right to examine the packages
and, Gamble said nobody except the
agent had a right to touch them.
Finally, Gamble. having carried
his point as to the actual interfer-
ence with the packages, and taking
into consideration the mental condi-
ton Of Edwards, suggested that the
question of a railroad mans right to
look over express be postponed until
some future time. This seemed to be
satisfactory to Edwards and he turned
as If to start away.
Some of those present thought the
trouble was about over; but others
saw that Edwards was fumbling in
his pockets, evidently for a pistol
and shouted to Gamble to look out.
At this instant, Edwards turned
round and fired two shots at Gam
BILE, without effect.
Gamble on the lookout for trouble,
lost no time in drawing his revolver
and commenced action. He fired
five shots almost as rapidly as he
could pull the trigger, and dropped
to his knees to reload; but Edwards
had been done for. One bullet had
STRUCK MIN III the CIleSl, dHOllcI III
the abdomen and another had taken
off a finger.
Edwards was first taken to the
section shanty near by and was af-
terward carried to the Presbyterian
hospital in Charlotte. The shooting
occurred about l o'clock Sunday af-
ternoon and Edwards died Monday
morning at 4 o'clock.
The body Of the dead man was
brought back to Fort Mill Monday
afternoon, and Coroner Louthian held
an inquest. The testimony was about
as outlined above, and the verdict
of the jury was to the effect that
Gamble acted in self defense, and
his action in the matter was justi-
fable.
1t is understood that Edwards
sobered up after he was shot and
told those about him that he was In
the wrong all the way through and
requested that nothing should be
done to Policeman Gamble.

Senator Brice came up from Colum-

home Saturday and Sunday and re-
turning to Columbia Monday morning.
He was very busy Saturday with his
professional work and had but little
time to talk politics. The reporter,
however, had a short interview with
