Mr. Barger has seen many changes
in Newberry since the days when he
played in the old rock jail. He has
seen the town along with the whole
South, devasted by the cruel hand Of
war, and he has seen it grow from a
small village, Immediately after the
war; to one Of the most progressive
cities in upper Carolina.
! Mr.. Bareer attended school until
he was fourier years Of age, at
which time he went to work in one OF
| the printing offices in Newberry, and,
with the exception Of the four years
he spent in the war, he has continu-
ed at the printers trade almost con-
tinuously up to the present time. At
the opening Of the War Between the
States he entered the Confederate
service as a member of Company D,
Sd South Carolina battalion, and
served throughout the war, taking
part in most Of the great battles. He
| did not receive a serious wound dur
Ing the entire four years. At Gettys-
burg, however, he was knocked un-
conscious by a spent ball and had to
be carried from the field. and on a
retreat shortly after that he was tax
en- prisoner and remained for seven
months a prisoner Of war at Fort De-
i laware. At Gettysburg, the turning
point in the war, his company was a
member Of Kershaw's brigade, the
; daring Of whose achievements, under
the shadow of little Ground Top
has probably never been surpassed in
ancient Or modern warfare. It va

men Of Kershaw's brigade were not

out the battle, as every DOdy OF
Southern troops did in every battle
of the war.
Only hallowed memories Of those
days now survive, and Newberry

Intensive FARMING.

Charles F. Gumm who bought BIZ
acre farm in Wieomico county about
twenty years ago for $3.50, last year
raised 10000 bushels of white potatoes,
and the indications are that he will
gather in the crop which he is now
harvesting $4,000 bushels. That shows
what Maryland land will do without
any great forcing, for $4,000 bushels of
potatoes is not an extraordinary yield
for a 312 acre Maryland farm, even
though the crop may sell this year for
something like $4,000.
Two hundred bushels of white pota-
toes to the acre is good yield, but
not extraordinary. BY intensive effort
nearly 1000 bushels have been grown
on a single acre. That result, however,
was extraordinary and the cultural eff
fort necessary cost more than the mar
ket value of the crop. But intensive
farming, not only in potato growing,
but in the production of almost every
other crop grown on the farm, can
prQfltably be employed to an extent
that would double the agricultural and
horticultural yield of Maryland.
The talk about the United States
having almost reached the limit of its
agricultural resources is entirely at
variance with the truth. There is not
an important crop from wheat to cot
ton the yield of which cannot be quad
rurled in this country. The fact of the
matter is that Intensive farming has
scarcely been resorted to in the United
States, even in spots.-Baltimore

Bank Robber Reckless With Gun
Killed the Cashier and Seriously Wounded the President
Captured and Taken to Indiana Jail-Not Over
Twenty Years Old.

Louisville, KY, Nov lin an at
tempt at bank robbery, a young man
who has been partially identified as
Arthur Hall OF louisville, a dealer In
second hand furniture entered the Mer-
chants National bank in New Albany,
Ind, shortly before noon to-day and
killed J. Hungary Fawcett, cashier of
the bank, seriously wounded John x.
Woodward, president of the bank, and
wounded James r. Tucker, a negro
chauffeur, probably fatally.
Ordered Everyone to "Get Into the
Vault"
When Hall entered the bank he car
ried a pistol in each hand. After
commanding everyone to throw up his
hands and get into the vault" Hall
began shooting.
Cashier Fawcett was shot through
the chest and neck and died almost
instantly. President Woodward was
shot through the liver and his intes-
tines were perforated. Tucker, the
chauffeur, was shot through the body.
Tried to Escape in Automobile.
After the shooting the man rushed

an automobile, which he had taken
from the curb in front of the residence
Of its owner Mrs. Walter E. Scott. in
Louisville. Hel had forced the negro
chauffeur at the point of pistol to
drive him to New Albany.
Captured While Crossing Ohio River.
The chauffeur, paralyzed with terror
and apparently incapable of action, sat
still when the robber, after shooting
the banker, jumped into the car and
ordered him TO speed up the machine
Then the robber jumped out of the au-
tomobile, shot the negr In the back
and ran two blocks to the Ohio river

NUNS THE WORLD
National Guardsmen Must Not Gossip
or Find Fault.

There are some features in the Of
fetal changes in the rules and regula-
lions of the Connecticut national guard
which have recently been issued by
the adjutant general that have an in
terest, considered in the light of past
events, of greater extent than in those
usually issued. The new orders give
added powers to the adjutant general.
The order which is perhaps the most
significant is the following
Deliberations or discussions among
military men conveying praise or CEN
sure, or any mark of appreciation,
towards other in the military service,
and all publications relating to pri-
vate and personal transactions be-
tween officers. are prohibited"
1t will be noticed that even discus
sions conveying praise are prohibited.
The orders concerning efforts by mem
bers of the natienal" guard to secure
legislation give much power and in
fluenee to the adjutant general. These
were made for the purpose of secur-
ing stability to the guards organiza-
ton and of preventing changes which
might be detrimental to the service

this letter and the first thrill of joy

the Berkshire boar died very suddenly
last night. We do not know the exact
cause of death, but judging from the
symptoms would impute same to hog

the existing sanitary arrangements the
