Preacher Held the Baby.
(Gaffney Ledger.)

One OF the delegates, while on his
way to conference, was asked by a
lady, who hurriedly alighted at Spar
tanburg, to hold her baby for min
ute. When the train started without
the return of the lady, the delegate,
in great perturbation, sought the
conductor, and was thunderstruck to
learn that Spartanburg was the
lady's destination. Here was q
preacher on his way to conference
with a baby on his hands. In great
agony he begged the conductor to
help him. Gle seems very quiet"
said the conductor. "He must be a
mighty good child" They COM
menced to undo the wrappings, and,
to the delight Of the delegate, q
large rag doll was disclosed. The
delegate claims that the narrowing
experience aged him ten years. He
was a young unmarried man, and
hence his experience with babies was
limited.

Son Convicted; Father Freed.

Gainesville, Fla, Nov. 29.-One
Of the most interesting murder trials
held in this county for several years
came to a conclusion last night at
$50 O'Clock, when the jury in the
case of B. B. Lowman and George
Lowman, charged with the murder
Of Dunlap Phinney, rendered a ver-
dict Of guilty, with recommends
ton for mercy in the case Of George
Lowman, and not guilty for his ia
ther, B. B. Lowman.
The killing Of Phinney occurred at
Raleigh, Levy county, on June 8, and
so intense was the feeling against
the defendants that they were afraid
they would not receive justice at the
hands of jury in that county, and
hence were granted change of
venue to Alachua county.
The conviction of the younger
Lowman. since he was recommended
TO mercy, means a life sentence in
the penitentiary.

ABOUT DAVID BIspHaM.
Great Singer who Comes to, Charles
ton EARLY in December.

David Bispham, who Is to be heard
in Charleston December 7th, began
in Italy to study the works of the
old masters as a preparation for ora
torio. In London he studied with
William Shakespeare, and coached
under Randegger who also trained
him in the operas of Mozart and Ros-
sini. His repertoire includes all the
standard choral works and cantatas,
great festivals in Birmingham, Leeds
and Sheffield. While giving close
study to the oratorios OF Haydn,
Handel and Mcndclssohn, he had
paid particular attention to the
works Of Bach, which he has sung at
the Bach festivals in London. shs
Because Of his paramount inte rest
in Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann,
Franz and Brahms. German songs
early engaged his attention and
study. He took as models certain
singers whom he not cnly admired
as operate artists, but for their YER
satility He perce'7ed that the
knowledge Of the dignity Of sacred
concert music lent repose to their
operate work, Gad that their opera
tic art put life into thoir oratorio
singing. He also saw that their
proper Interpretation of songs by the
great masters added a certain poetic
quality.
There is no question In the minds
of those familiar with his attain
ments that there Is no singer in
America or Europe capable Of such
variety of work in opera, oratorio
and song recital as Mr.. Bispham.

Cotton Holders Keep Cool.

From every quarter of the cotton
belt comes the cheering news that
every man 1t seems, who can possibly
do so, is holding down the lid on his
cotton for farmers prices.
We have kind of mixed feeling
Tor all the unfortunate cotton farm
ers who have been forced to market
this crop of their cotton at the specu-
lators price. But II they will take
this lesson to their profit in the fu-
ture they may have paid well for the
lesson and may be this fact will make
the lesson last longer. Whilst we
feel sorry for the helpless cotton SELL
er we are feeling good over the
cheering news that is daily coming
INTO this Office from all over the cot
ton States. / regret that we have
not the room for one tenth Of these
cheering letters. Here Is an extract
from business letter to this office
from President T. S. Miller, of the
Farmers Union Warehouse Co., Of
tGatesyille, Texas, dated Nov. 23:
"Our county made $4,000 bales
last year, think will make II 900 this
year; 99h per cont gathered.
Ri Union and non-unfon men hold
Ing about 5000 bales for the fifteen
cent minimum. ...
''All the street cotton buyers and
many of the merchants fighting us to
a finish. ...
"Our local banks closed down on
both cotton buyers and farmers, re-
fusing to furnish any money to the
farmer, or cash warehouse certifi-
Gates, the latter for 20 days or more.
The banks are now supplying cash
for the local buyers, but will not cash
our certificates yet say they viii
soon.
Business very quiet in all lines
and the Farmers Union blamed for
the whole thing. l tell them we are
just new getting ready to fight; we
started in for fifteen cents and we
are going to have it. With best
wishes, | am,
Yours fraternally,

More Financiers Than Money.

The great question for cotton
growers In the future is how to avoid
the evil Of New York panics and cot
ton exchanges. Cotton growers have
learned lesson during this last
money panic that they should turn to
their profit in the future by giving
New York; re so by and strain every
nerve to establish direct trade with
foreign countries on the Farmers
Cotton Union plans, by establishing
q complete chain Of home cotton
warehouses in the South as auxiliary
feeders for at least two foreign sto-
rage stations to begin with-one in
Manchester and one in Bremen.
The dire legal robbery inaugurated
by New York Cotton Exchange and
some New York banks, as we'll as
some Southern banks, who were no
doubt in league with the whole gang
to force weak cotton on the market
at ruinous prices to the grower is the
limit to the cotton growers endurance.
We must now stop talking and pass
ing unity resolutions and go to do
ing something that will count. We
have got enough of this New York
skinning game to bury the last spark
Nof hope and confidence any or us ever
IAhad in New York.

J Already some OF our treacher-
- newspapers are aiming deadly
,ws at this new movement Of far
''ers, which bark only when ap-
= lfoach of danger comes along.
These papefs are warning farmers
against these sales Offices abroad on
account of the distance from home,
and lot of other silly objections.
These are days of progress. Tele-
graph, telephones ana cables across
the waters to do business with and
long range guns to fight with.
Manchester and Bremen are now
as near by wire to the cotton fields
of the South as New York or Norfolk
we're forty years ago. Our war ves-
ing one to- five hundred yards apart;
now they do At from one to fifteen
miles apart. The business and sys-
TENS of all other occupations are
reaching out and broadening in
space. Why not the cotton grower
keep up with the trend Of the times?
Our Farmers Cotton Union is the Off
spring Of a more intelligent and pro-
gressive effort of the cotton farmers
to guard the marketing end of their
business. This new movement Is
born of the dire necessity to insure
the producers Of cotton his just pro-
fits that have been going to others
who have no right to 1t. Confidence
seems to be tn only thing now left
for the individual cotton growers TO
perfect this business. Will cotton
growers continue to trust the specu-
lators or will they place their trust
in themselves?
