Two Cotton HarveSters. -

Bennettsville, Oct. 7.-The demon
stration of the cotton harvester,
which was to have been made here
about the first of this month, has
been delayed on account of a fire in
the machine shops of the construc-
ton company. 1t will be several days
yet before the trial will be made.
Mr.. Theodore Price and associates
will come to Bennettsville about the
10th of this month and the test OF
the cotton picker will be made be-
tween that day and the 18th.
The machine will be tried on Sena-
tor McLaurin's "Irby place" in the
upper part of the county, where
about 100 acres of cotton have been
reserved. A number of other North
erners will be with Mr.. Price, for the
machine was operated in Texas last
year and it is said that strong f1nan-
cial interests are backing it.
Marlboro county, however, already
has q cotton picker in the field. The
inventor, Mr.. J. M. Brasington of this
place, has allowed a few friends to
zee his machine while at work. Yes
terday afternoon on the plantation
OF Messrs. Evans, brothers, he gave
an exhibition and in a few days he
will be ready to put it to test. Those
who saw it at work are favorably
impressed with it nd think that
Mr.. Brasington will succeed. Posi-
bly, both of these harvesters will be
exhibited at the same time.

DOCTOR SHOOTS CASHIER
H. w. Shaw Wounds Thomas s. Gray
in Augusta.

Augusta, Oct. I'll. w. Shaw, a
local physician, at 2:30 p. M. to-day
shot Thomas S. Gray, cashier of the
Union Savings hank. Four shots
were fired, two taking effect on the
left side and one in the f1eshy part OF
the left leg. C. Penrose, the city at
torney. also the attorney of the bank
named seized Shaw sending two
of the shots wild and saving Gray
from further wounds. Gray tonight
is at local hospital and is doing
we'll. There is no likelihood of Sc
rious results from the wounds them
selves. Gray is one of the most
prominent of the younger men of
Augusta He is brother of State
Railroad Commissioner Gray.
Shaw surreptitiously ascertained
from the bank information that a
customer there had credit to his
account. Using this information
Shaw garnisheed the account. Gray
over the telephone denounced Shaw
for the manner in which he ascer-
tanned the information on which he
proceeded in the garnishment matter.
He met Gray on the sidewalk. Gray
moved towards Shaw, Shaw drawing
his pistol and firing on the banker.
The affair has caused an intense SEN
sation here.
Shaw was at first liberated on bond,
but later the sheriff held him with
out bail.

Why I Leftthe Ministry.

LAS minister 1 found that l could
not be honest" says a former coun-
try pastor in Woman's Home Com
panion for October. Il could not be
honest in business matters. l could
not be honest morally. could
not be honest socially. Repeatedly
1 made the attempt. Repeatedly the
attempt ended in disaster" After
long and bitter experience, he came
to the conclusion that the small
church owes four duties to its pas
tor. They are:
Il. Pay up. Turn in your contri-
button to the church treasury with
the utmost promptness. Leave the
treasurer no excuse for running your
minister into debt.
"2. Speak out. When the church
is about to choose new pastor,
raise the question immediately as to
the stamp of preaching expected.
Conservative or progressive, let 1t be
settled then. Better hot debate
and the consequent hard feelings
than a sham acquiescence that keep
things smooth for the time, and later
subjects a minister to a process OF
doctrinal bullying that degrades his
manhood. If subsequently there
arise disagreements, see to it that
they are met not by bringing pressure
to bear sporadically upon the pastor,
but by bringing pressure to bear,
when necessary, upon his parish
toner's. By this I mean demanding
that they reach common ground on
which they are willing to stand con-
sistently.
"3. Be considerate. Refuse to
ruin your pastors usefulness by
heaping upon him a host Of unneces-
sary tasks. Leave him time to fulfil
his larger obligations honestly-time
for solid, patient, conscientious prep
aration for the pulpit, time for the
faithful shepherding of the flock.
"a. Be natural. The pose peo-
pie assume toward a minister is a
survival of bygone time, and so is
their insistence that he practice an
artificial severity of life. The
natural, instructive attitude is that
of candor in the one matter and of
respect for his individual convtc-
tions in the other.
Some day, when Christians have
come to understand that only as
these four simple rules are obeyed
can a clergyman maintain his homes
ty, there will result a reformation
that will make the preachers calling
what God intends it to .be-the
noblest, the most inspiring, the most
hallowed in all the world. And never
again will a man write an account
of how he left the ministry to save
his SOUL"

A Good Motto.

Stand up for your friends is a
grand motto. Do not stand up with
closed lips and listen to the abuse OF
those whom you love and respect.
It takes courage sometimes to defend
an absent friend, but If he is a friend
and Is believed to be a worthy man,
it is most cowardly to say no word
when he is abused in your presence.
Silence Is golden, but not in a case
where an old acquaintance, a trusted
comrade, a respected neighbor, fra
ternal associate is being adversely
criticised, having no chance to reply.
Then is the time to speak out; and to
make proof of that true frienship
which is loyal in season and out Of
season, ever counting it a sacred
duty to defend the absent when
wrongfully assailed." - Fraternal
Record.

BYRNs Is ACQUITTED.
Not Guilty Of Murder But Convicted
of Carrying Concealed Weapon.

Charleston, Oct. 6.-In the court
of general sessions yesterday William
Byrns was tried for the killing of J.
C. Jaudon, who died on August FL
from a pistol shot inflicted by the de-
fendant on August 9, in the Palace
cafe, King street. The jury returned
verdict of not guilty on the charge
of murder, and guilty of carrying a
concealed weapon. Counsel for the
defendant gave notice of motion
for a new trial.
Byrns claimed self-defense and es-
tablished case that took the jury
not more than an hour to indorse.
They brought in verdict of guilty
of the second count, carrying con-
cealed weapon, and it will be on this
count that his counsel will seek q
new trial.

Woman's College VIII
 Open at Hammer Hall

Ph.D. For three years Dr. Martin was a member of the faculty Of Emory and Henry where he filled the chair of history and political economy. For the past five years he has been president of Sullins College, Bristol, Va. Since he has been at the head of that in- stitution the number of students has doubled and 1t now numbers 400.
 He is now in Montgomery to devote all his ability, energy and experience to the upbuilding of. the new college for women. pr. Martin is desirous that the people of Alabama should know that the faculty which is being selected for the new institution is second to none in school work in the South. Ex- pert teachers will have charge of the departments of music, art and expres- sion. In the literary department the teachers will be the ablest that can be secured.
 An attractive catalogue for the new institution will be issued as soon as possible.
 In Montgomery a general and per sonal interest is manifested in the new institution. It is confidently believed that the local attendance will be fully as large as the conventences will per- nit For the present the boarding pupils will be limited to 125, for which reason, Dr. Martin is anxious for all prospective students to communicate with him at once, as it is more than

bacco crop which is being grown for the second season in that vicinity. He is one of those who believe that the ySumatra leaf has found permanent root in the Escambia County soil and will make an established industry in the pine belt.
 There are approximately forty acres in the tobacco. said Commissioner Will kinsons of which a few acres are in the Cuban filler during the first year of experiment.
 "The plants are between six and a half to seven feet in height added the Commissioner who was accompanied in his inspection by United States ex- perts. T stood in the midst of the patch and to touch the topmost part of the leaf by my side used all but about six inches of my arm. It is now in good shape in spite of the rains which have tended in some portions of the State to Infect the weed with insects"
 It Is the opinion of Commissioner Wilkinson that the Escambia Fruit Company and other owners of land in tobacco should realize an average of S1 per pound for their product this year. There are several barns on the farm which, with the extensive lathe work and wall fences represent sever al thousands of dollars expended in the demonstration. The growers have been offered profitable money for all that remains of last years crop. The curing is done in careful and scientific fashion and they are, accorning to Commi ssioner Wilkinson, taking care that no tobacco goes on the market with the Brewton stamp which is not of the best.
 It is probable that the growers will follow this winter the suggestion of MT. Wilkinson and plant the soil in COW peas or some leguminous growth, thus restoring the nitrogen to the soil for another year of tobacco.
 Those behind the tobacco industry in Alabama are uniting in an effort to stop the movement in the United States Senate for the adoption of the free tobacco leaf amendment to the tariff bill It is believed by the growers that if they are to succeed in their new enterprise they ought to have encour- agement by way of protection, espe- cially as other sections have been en- toying the nourishment of this indus try for so long a time. The chances are that there will be no free tobacco leaf, but all Alabama Congressman, it is understood, will be urged to vote for the retention of the Dingley duty. 
 Remember, if we fail to learn you the cotton business we will refund your money.
