Boys Tragic Death.--Lost
His Life Trying to Swing
On a Train.

Columbia special in Thurs
days Charlotte Observer
In attempting to swing onto
an outgoing Southern passenger
train just pulling out of the
union station for Marion, n. c.,
Boyd Stroud, the 15-year-old
son of Arch Stroud, of the Rich
land Mill village, fell under the
wheels and was instantly killed
this morning as the train was
passing Sumter and Indigo
streets, block from the union
station. The little fellows body
was horribly mangled, the head
being the only portion not cut
up.
This dangerous practice of
swinging onto outgoing passen-
ger trains for free rides is a fav-
orite pastime among young boys
of his age in that section of the
city, and at the time OF the &C.
cident Boyd was accompanied
by a number of his companions
who were more fortunate in get
ting safely on the train.
The Stroud family came here
from McColl, S. c., where they
have a number of relatives. They
also have relatives at Dillon, S.
C.

Raleigh, N. c., July Bleed
ing to death from a mysterious
bullet wound in his lett leg, B.
Nj. Stul'z, an engineer on the
Seaboard Air Line, staggered

road here last night and died
without telling how or by whom
he had been shot.

boy, is under arrest tor the kill
ing The testimony before the

organized within the next few
weeks.
The organization has form
of ritual and some secret work
which appeals to the imagina-
tlon and tends to keep up inter
est, but the primary object, the
practlca! result being striven tor
first and foremost, is to spread
the gospel OF diversi fication, the
raising of home supplies and the
treatment of cotton as a surplus
crop.
However, the Union is building
cotton ware houses over the State
the work of constructing these
ware houses is going on now in
half dozen counties, where the
Union does not own such build
ing, in keeping with the general
scheme to finally get the major
portion of the cotton in such
ware houses for the purpose OF
financing the crop and releas-
ing 1T only at stated price.
Some of the county and town.
ship local unions are beginning
to buy their supplies in bulk,
others are buying through cen
trail agencies, but the plan that
seems to be most popular is to
have the local merchants do the
buying, the farmers buying in
advance for cash. 1t is said that
In one county last year, where
the Union is particularly strong
the fertilizer trust was made to
sell fertilizers at from 50 to So. SO
a ton less than it was selling the
same brands in neighboring
counties. The Union members
refused to buy until the price
was reached. J. A. II.

Northern Woman Comes
South in a Box.

Salisbury, N. c.. special in
the Charlotte Observer The
people of Salisbury were treated
to very unusual sight at the
depot yesterday and the fresh
and enthusiasts especially were
given something to think about.
Mrs. William Tyson, a middle
aged wealthy woman of Fitch
burg, Mass, arrived here com
fortably tucked away in large
box with glass front, having
made the trip in the baggage car.
Mrs. Tyson has been a sufferer
of bronchitis and nervous trou-
bles and for the past year has
lived In very close room, imag-
lining the slightest draught
might aggravate her condition.
To avoid the cold, damp climate
OF the North she decided to come
to North Carolina in the hope
that the climate might relieve
her. The box in which she de-
cided to make the trip on the
train is a large, long affair with
glass front and having windows
which D ay be opened and shut
at will. She was wrapped in
heavy blankets and it is needless
to say that with the thermome
ter outside at 80, perspiration
bathed her face and she looked
pale, thin and worn. The in
terror OF the box, according to
her idea, was comfortably ar.
ranged with books, Thermometer,
papers, CLOCK, etc.

How to Catch Musk-Rats.

MIR. E. Mullis, of New Salem
township. has discovered new
and effective method of catchin,
musk-rats. His method is as fol-
lows:
Make an ordinary plank box
three or four feet long, nail a
head over one end like a bee.gum
and bury the box in the ground
with head end down on the bank
of stream, letting the head end of
box go deep enough into the
ground to be a little below the
water in the stream, the top end
being level with the ground, then
cut a little trench from stream to
box in order that the water NAV
cover the bottom of box. By do
ing this the rats think, bottom of
box being covered with water,
that they can dive and 90 on in
to the stream and will therefore
jump into the box. Mr.. Mullis
says he has known as many as
6 to be caught in one night wit h
ore box.

THE FARMERS UNION.

Marvellous Growth of the
Organization in South Car
olina-- The Coming State
Convention.
Columbia special in the News
and Courier: The State Far
mers' Union Convention, to be
held here on July %, is expect
ed to bring to Columbia the lar.
gest gathering of farmers the
city has seen in many years.
Some counties in the State have
Lot yet been organized, but there
are now over 400 local unions
scattered over the State, and
others are being organized at the
rate of about ten week. Over
200 delegates are expected to at
tend the State Convention. The
executive positions of the State
organization are in good hands
and harmony characterizes the
union generally over the State.
OF course, no newspaper men
will be admitted to the Conven.
ton, which will be held in the
hall of the House of Represen-
,tatives, but it is expected that
>something of interest to the peo-
pie of the State generally will
be given out for publication by
the press committee.
There has been a wonderful
awakening among the farmers of
this State to the Importance of
getting together and sticking, to
the necessity tor better methods
on the farm and to the advan-
tages to be gained by frequent
meetings in local unions for ex.
change of experience and swap,
ping ideas.
And the rapid growth of the
rural high school system shows
that the farmers generally are
taking more practical interest in
eduction generally. The demon
stration work of the Federal de
partment of agriculture has ac-
complished great results in wax
ing up the farmers, by pursuing
systematic, practical work on
the farms through district, coun-
ty and township representatives.
The yearly crop of agricultural
graduates frt Ia Clemson has also
played an important part in
arousing general interest in farm.
ing, as have the frequent county
meetings cf farmers over the
State.
The State Union now has its
official weekly paper, four-col-
umn, sixteen-page general agr
cultural publication, attractively
edited and beautifully printed,
and published al Columbia. This
goes to about 1000 farm families
over the State, and it is attract
ing much favorable comment.
Its editor is Mr. S. Frank Par
rott, cIeIer young newspaper
man OF Gaffney, who has been
conducting the Cherokee News
for the past several years.
The Farmers Union began to
be organized in this State in
1904, the president, Mr.. B. Har-
ris, of Pendleton, being, the first
president. The organization
has grown most rapidly in the
upper tier Of counties, where
there are larger number of
white farmers, but it is being
rapidly pushed into the counties
east and south of the Capital,

Marlboro, Clarendon, Bamberg,
