Greeaville Man Run Over.
Mill Employee Struck and Killed by
Trolley Car,

G.eenville, October 16.-John L.
Fisher, an employee of the American
Spinning Company, was instantly kill
ed and his body mangied this after
noon about $50 by one Of the trolley
cars of the Greenville Traction Com
pany. The accident occurred near the
school house at that mill, not far out
of the city limits. Fisher is about
fifty years old and is survived hy a
wife and large family. When cross
ing the track. the nan was struck by
the car which seemed to have come
upon him unawaree. The mans body
was run over by the trucks Of the car
and was carried about twenty feet.
When found. the body was lying across
the track horribly mangled and with
several members severed from the
trunk and lying around in different
places near the place where the body
had been deposited by the car. The
stomach was cut open and other poz-
tons of the body cut almost beyond
recognition.

It Must %.

The liquor business co ntinuess to
receive hard blows and they are given
from all directions. The Southern
States keep on passing prohibition laws
rim strengthening those already in
existance. In other States, county
and other local option laws are also
making themselves felt. The result
of it all is diminished consumption
of LIQUOR az the decreased internal re-
turns clearly show. The same story
comes from other lands. The revenue
from liquor has dropped considerably
in Great Britain and now an interest
ing fact comes from Germany. That
country has increased largely tax on
beer. The brewers and retail sellers
have sought to recoup themselves by
raising the price, and here is the re-
suit in Kiel. In the government dock
yard Of that city the 5000 workmen
were accustomed to drink $4,000 bot
ties Of beer every day. These work.
men resented tho increased tax and
turned to milk, coffee and mineral
waters end as one result the $4,000
daily bottles OF beer have fallen to 120.
Another result is better work and far
less loss Of time by the workmen.-

Saturday 4 Busy Day.

Saturday was busy day in Lexine-
ton. Our merchants had the largest
business of the season. Cotton was
selling for 1914 cents, and many bales
were sold. It seems TO be the inten-
ton of the Lexington farmers, with
but few exceptions, to sell out their
crop at the present price, realizing
that at present prices, there is money
in farming. It is understood that the
farmers are going to SOW more small
grain this fall than ever before, thus
raising their own supplies, and Masking
cotton a surplus crop.
