resulted in two factions which
threatened to disorganize the con-
gregation. Many opposed the hold
ing of social tonight, fearing an
outbreak. During the evening there
was clash between adherents of the
rival factions, and it Is said that
blow was struck. Instantly guns
were produced and shooting began.
1t is not certainly known who fred
the first shot, but almost as soon as
the shooting began Capely fell to
the floor with bullet in his heart.,
Mrs. Harper, Henry Garden and two
other men were shot within the next
few minutes. 1t is believed that
Mrs. Capely received her wound as
she stepped from the door Of the
building. There was scene of wild
disorder the moment revolvers began
to crack. Women aud children
shrieked and rushed toward the exits.
Mrs. Harper, Garden. and James
Hotten were placed under arrest
pending complete investigation by
the authorities.

Blood Flows Freely at Church Festival.

Bluefield, w. Va, March 27.-
Bloodshed and death was the end
ing of social at the Methodist
Episcopal church at Coaldale, near
here, tonight. One man was killed
instantly, his wife was disfgured by
having part of her head torn away
with shotgun, and several others
received serious bullet wounds. The
tragedy grew out of bitter feeling
between two factions striving for
dominance in the church. The man
killed is Benjamin Capely, while his
wife, whose head was partly torn
away, cannot recover. Mrs. r.. H.
Harper was wounded in the side and
Henry Garden was shot in the leg.
Two unknown men, who fled after
the fight, were also slightly wounded.
There had been i'll feeling of long
standing over the management of
the funds which had been raised for
the erection of new church build
ing. The dispute over the money

Verdict Of Coroner's Jury.

every frequently" says a New
York lawyer, according to Harper's
Weekly, "there is an element of un-
conscious humor in the findings of
jury. To my mind, the best I ever
heard in this connection was the ver-
dict brought in by coroner's jury
in Michigan, who were called upon
to pass upon the case of a sudden
death of merchant in Lansing.
The finding was as follows: awe,
the jury, find from the physicians
statement that the deceased came to
his death from heart failure, superin-
duced by business failure, which was
caused by speculation failure, which
was the result OF failure to see far
enough ahead"

Congressman Aiken Interviewed.

Congressman Aiken spent couple
of hours in the city yesterday after
noon. Mr.. Aiken secured a few days
leave of absence from his duties in
Washington to visit his home al
Abbeville on private business. He
has son in school at Greenville, and
decided to come by Anderson on his
way to Greenville, and his many
friends here were more than glad to
see him.
Mr.. Aiken seemed in the best of
health and was as jovial as of yore.
The life in Washington is not telling
on him. Naturally about the first
question put to him by his friends
was about the race for Congress this
summer, and what he thought of
having Solicitor Boggs as an oppo-
nent.
"Why, that is all right" he said,
"1 will be candidate for reelection.
julie Boggs and myself are the best
of friends, and l would be very silly
to object to him running for Con-
gress if he wants to do so. 1 will
have to 60 MI over the district this
summer anyway, whether Boggs
runs or not, and l will be very glad
to have him 60 along and keep me
company. He is nice fellow and l
can enjoy myself with him. But of
course don't think he stands ghost
of a chance of being elected" And
MIR. Aiken smiled genially.
otis like this" said Mr.. Aiken,
"the office of Congressman belongs
to the people. If they want me to
continue to represent them l shall be
glad to do 80, and if they want some
one else | am ready to step down
and out. | think, though, the peo-
pie have learned to set some store by
the fact that length of service adds
to efficiency, and that they will argue
that if they have Congressman who
is doing good service there will be
no need of change. An inexperi-
enced man is not worth much. At
the same time it is the duty of the
people, if they find that they have
an inefficient public servant, to make
a change. 1t will be up to the people
to decide this summer, and / am
quite willing to go before the people
and ask them to decide it. am not
mad at my friend Boggs for running,
and / don't want him to get mad
when keep him from getting the
office. Anderson Mail, March 30.

Two boys went to market with
60 ducks. The larger boy took 80
of the largest ducks and sold them
two for 81. The smaller boy took
the remaining 80 ducks and sold
them 5 for 81. They received for
their ducks $25. When they got
home they told their father they
sold their ducks at the rate of five
for 50 and gave him $24. Explain
how it was possible for the boys to
make the dollar by this transaction.

Foley & Co., Chicago, originated Honey
and Tar as throat and lung remedy,
and on account of the great merit and
popularity of Foleys Honey and Tar
many limitations are offered for the genu-

them. The genuine Foley's Honey and

The Grand Army of the Republic
is making big fight on the govern
ment's proposition to reduce the
salaries of those who are more than
90 years of age, and will separate
from the service in 1913 all who
have reached the age of 20. The
governments proposition is a good
one, and it is hoped the G. A. r.. will
lose out.

dication of the stand that we have
taken. Those who have spot cotton
who have resolutely held it in the
face of all organized effort to force
them to sell at other than their fig
ures, have brighter prospect of vic
tory to-day than ever before.
"The ginners' report of linters, sea
island cotton, the amount of cotton
which should have been reported in
last years crop, and the difference in
the weights of bales this year and
last, all deducted from the total, will
make the crop practically 100000
bales. With the worlds consump-
tion requiring at least 10000, 900
bales out of the present crop, by the
first day of September next the con-
dition of the spinners can easily be
figured out and the statistical report
of cotton easily appreciated.
"The prospects are that we will
begin the first of next year with
practically the stock depleted, and if
the farmers will but exercise good
common sense and reduce their acre
age in cotton, increasing their food
products, there will be no need to
hold cotton another season for any
length of time, because the world
will be clamorous for it from the be-
ginning.
cit has been of great benefit to me
to be able to point to South Carolina
as standing wholly by her pledge. 1t
is no idle boast, nor is it said in the
spirit of a boast, but rather to show
the responsibility that is upon us,
when | declare that the eyes of the
other cotton growing States are
upon us, and South Carolina this
year will determine by what she does
largely the fate of the Southern Cot
ton Association.
Gone word before closing this in
terview as to the far-sightedness of
some of our people. Because the
mills had bought sufficient cotton to
enable them to stay out of the mar
ket for short while the bears took
advantage of this and began to ham
mer prices. A great many became
frightened and threw their cotton on
the market. The spectators, realz
ing the strength of the statistical
position of cotton, bought the sur
plus, and from now on they will reap
the reward of high prices instead of
those whom it would most benefit.
"Surely after SO many repeated
lessons, the people of the South will
learn their strength and not allow
themselves to be made servants of
the gambling spectators.
awe will celebrate another Jubilee
this year. | sincerely hope that as
many will rejoice as did last year
when we celebrated the 10-cent vic
tory.
no all the cotton growers of the
State let me make this plea If you
have not reduced your acreage, and
if you have already prepared it for
cotton, let me beg you as a business
proposition, as good sense PROPOSE
ton, to reduce your cotton acreage
now, and increase your corn and food
crops, supply yourselves with more
hogs and cattle and reap the reward
of prosperity.
