SHOT KILLED LITTLE GIRL.
Accidental Discharge of Shot Gun
Fatal in Newberry.

Newberry, August 24.-Marie, the
7-year-old daughter of Mr.. B. B.
Sloan, who lives about three and one
half miles from the city, died on
Tuesday night as the result of hor-
rible accident which she suffered at
about noon. She was sitting in the
door Of the home shelling peas when
a shot gun, which was leaning against
the wall in a corner, in some way
slipped or fell to the floor with such
violence as to be discharged, the load
tearing off the little girls right leg
about midway between the foot and
the knee.
Drs. W. E. Pelham, R. D. Mower,
w. A. Dunn and J. K. Glider were
called in. Amputation was decided
upon as the only hope Of saving the
childs life, and the leg was ampu-
tated about two inches below the
knee. The operation was performed
by Drs. Pelham and Dunn, assisted
by DR.. Glider, and the chloroform was
administered by DR.. Mower. It was
a very skilful operation, but the child
died from the shock resulting from
the wound, from which, it is stated
by the physicians, there was practi-
cally no reaction.
Mr.. Sloan and his family were liv-
ing in a small house on his place
while he was having some repairs
made on his dwelling house. 1t was
in this temporary abode that the &C
cident occurred.

NEGRO WOMAN IS HEROINE.
Saves Helpless Man From Death at
Risk of Her Own Life.

Winnsboro, August 24.-Rhoda
Coker, one of the white folks colored
friends, is the worthy and proud pos
SCISSOR of a letter received yesterday
from superintendent H. A. Williams,
of the Southern Railway Company in
Columbia, thanking her for the heroic
act performed by her Saturday in
saving the life of William Hall, an
aged colored man.
Rhoda's house is situated only a
few feet from the railroad track in
the centre Of town. For some time
she has been taking care Of Hall, and
missing him from her house on Sat-
urday, she stepped out on the front
porch to see the old man, who is
totally deaf and almost blind, stand
ing on the track. The approaching
train was only few feet from the
man and at the risk Of her own life,
Rhoda showed him OF the track and
barely escaped with her own life. En-
gineer McAlester reported the act to
headquarters, hence the letter from
the superintendent.
It is rumored that the citizens OF
Winnsboro will endeavor to secure
Carnegie medal for the woman.

"Lemme tell you one on Dock
Whittle,' said the waggish noun
taineer. Last week Dock hitched up
his old mare, piled his old woman
an kids into the wagon, an took
'em over acrost the mountain to
where the new railroad has been
built, just to see tn kyars.
'.Non Of 'em had ever seen a rail-
road train, Dock, ner the old woman
an the kids, ner the old mare
either; so Dock he feels sorter un-
easy. Thinkin' he be on the safe
side, he onhitched the mare and tied
her to a saplin'; then the kids were
sittin' in the wagon in the middle
of the road. Dock thinks he'll pull
'em down the road a piece so he
takes hold Of the shafts an started:
but lust then 'Hoot! Toot!' come that
train of kyars, an Jumpin' Jerushy!
Dock run away with the wagon, and
the old woman an the kids began to
scream an holler, an they went
down the side Of the mountain, an
like to adjusted everything to pieces.
Dock says the old mare was the
ONLY one that wasn't skeered plumb

Mill Owners Consider Raising Cotton.

Orangeburg, August pa repre-
sentative of a large cotton mill of New
York State is in the city for the pur-
pose of overlooking the farming lands
of this county and State. He desires
to purchase 5000 acres of cotton
lands as nearly contiguous as posi-
BILE.
The Northern mill men are de-
sirous of raising their own cotton,
he claims, and thereby be independ-
ent of the farmer. This represen-
tative has visited several of the
Southern States but it appears that
his company desires to purchase land
in South Carolina or Georgia in pref
erence to the lands of the Southwest,
owing to the prevalence Of the boil
worm or boil weevil. He is equip
ped with maps and data concerning
this section and especially Orangeburg
county. AS Orangeburg county en-
joys such a national reputation as
being the best cotton producing coun-
ty in the world, the notice of this
and the other mills of the North who
are desirous of purchasing farms are
turned upon her.

Surprises in Chinese.

While Consul General Wilder, OF
Shanghai was on the Pacific coast
waiting to meet President Taft, then
on his Western trip, he spoke before
the students of Pomona College one
day, and among other things re-
marked on how few Americans really
learn to speak the Chinese language.
Some people," he said, live as
long as 20 years in China and never
learn more than a dozen Chinese ex-
pressions. But not so my little girl.
She used to meet me each evening
with some new Chinese expression
which she had learned during the
day.
Now, the Chisene language, like
the Japanese, is full of honorilces,
and 1 fondly imagined one evening,
when my girl greeted me with some
entirely new expressions, that she was
saving something like this: Here
comes the honorable parsonage, my
father
ITO verify my guess, asked a lit
tie Chinese boy to translate. At hrst
he was rather backward, but urged
him till he finally said:

TARHEEL'S WONDERFUL CLOCK
1t Shows Phases of the Moon, Posi-
ton of the Sun, Etc.

Daniel T. -avis, who lives about
five miles from Barnard, Madison
county, is the inventor Of perhaps
one Of the most remarkable clocks
that has ever been invented since the
original clock was invented. Robert
R. Reynolds, the Democratic candi-
date for solicitor of the fifteenth judi
cial district who has just returned
from trip to Madison county, was
at Mr.. Davis's house this week and
was shown the model by the inven-
tor.
Besides being equipped with the or
dinary hands for marking the Sec
onds, minutes and hours and also
having an arrangement for showing
the day, month and year, this ingen-
ious timepiece has one face which in
dicates the exact position Of the sun
during each hour of the day, while
similar face indicates the position
and phase of the moon when 1t is Wis
ible. This device has required con-
siderable mechanical genius Upon
the clock face, at the exact time OF
the rising of the sun each morning,
there appears a miniature sun and
this rises as the sun and disappears
at the exact time of sunset. The de-
vice showing the position Of the moon
is equally ingenious, if not more in
genious than that of the sun, for 1t
shows quarters and full moon. The
application for patent is now pend
ing at the patent Office at Washing
ton.
Mr.. Davis is 65 years of age and
has a wonderfully inventive mind. He
has been working on this model for
some while. His skill is even more
remarkable from the fact that he
was not enabl to have even a COM
mon school education, being neither
able to read nor write. He has a
comfortable home in Madison county.

And died; then rose again.
1t swelled in solemn measure,
Till every soul with comfort blest
Sank down among the lilies,
With folded wings to rest.
Then to that mystic music,
Through the forest twilight aisle
Passed host with mufled footsteps,
In martial rank and file.
And 1 knew those gray-clad figures,
Thus slowly passing by,
Were the souls of Southern soldiers
Who for freedom dared to die.
In front rode Sidney Johnson,
With a brow no longer wrung
BY the vile and senseless SANDERS,
Of a pourient rabble tongue,
And near him mighty Jackson,
With a placid front as one,
Whose warfare was accomplished,
Whose Crown of Glory won.
There, Hill, too, pure and noble,
Passed in that spirit train.
For he joined the martyred army
From the South's last battle plain.
There next in order followed,
The warrior priest, great Polk,
With. Joy to meet his Master,
For he had nobly borne the yoke.
There Stuart the bold and daring,
With matchless Pelham rode,
With earnest chastened faces,
They were looking up to God.
Ard jenkins, glorious jenkins,
With his patient fearless eyes,
And the brave devoted Garrett,
Journeyed on to Paradise.
Before a shadowy squadron,
Rode Morgan, keen and strong,
And 1 knew by his tranquil forehead
He'd forgotten every wrong.
Then peerless Pegram marching
With a dauntless martial tread,
And / breathed a sigh for the hero
The young the early dead.
Mid spectral Black Horse troopers
Passed Ashby's stalwart form,
With that proud defiant bearing
Which so spurned the battle storm.
But his glance was mild and tender,
For in that Phantom Host
It dwelt with lingering fondness,
On the Brother it had lost
There strobe the brave Mallory,
Kind, genial Adjutant,
And next him walked the truthful,
The lion-hearted Can't.
Then to that solemn music,
Passed a trio of the brave
Hayne, Taylor, Alfred Pinckney'
All had found soldiers grave.
They were young and gentle spirits
But they quaffed the bitter cup
For their country's flag was falling
And they fell to lift it up.
And there passed in countless thou
sands,
In that mighty Phantom Host.
True hearted and noble patriots
Whose names on earth are lost.
There the missing found their places
Those who vanished from our gaze
Like brilliant flashing meteors'
And were lost in Glory's blaze.
Yes, they passed that noble army
They passed to meet their LORD
And a voice within me Whispered
They have marched to their re
ward.

Advertising the Southern.

Washington, D. c., August H.
President Finley, of the Southern
Railway company, being asked TO-
day about the policy of that company
relative to the valuation Of order
notify bills of lading for export cot
ton, said:
The management. of the South
ern Railway company recognizes the
great commercial Importance of this
subject, and will do all that it prop
erly can to promote confidence in the
markets of the world in its bills of
lading. It is believed that the ef-
fective enforcement of certain busi-
ness precautions will 60 far to satisfy
any doubt which now exists as re-
suit of certain alleged manipulation
by shippers of order notify bills of
lading for export cotton last season,
for which the railroads were in no
way responsible.
The system of Issuing bills OF lad
ing was the subject of special con-
ference between the carriers and
bankers. AS a result of this confer
ence which was held at White Sui
phur Springs, w. Va, on the 18TH
ultimo, the Southern Railway COM
pany will arrange, beginning on Sep
tember l, 1910, to make effective the
safeguards surrounding the issue OF
order notify bills Of lading which
were then agreed upon. Among
other things agreed upon tending to
improve the system of issuing order
notify bills of lading for export cot
ton. these regulations provide for
bill of lading signature certificate
which will be signed and attached, on
behalf of the railroad company by a
valuation officer, to each other notify
bill of lading for export cotton Issued
by agents OF the company authorized
TO issue such bills OF lading. Each
yalidation certificate will set fortn
that the agent who has signed the bill
Of lading is the regularly appointed
agent of the company, and. AZ such
ia authorized to sign bills OF lading
in accordance with the regulations
OF the company, and that The sigma
ture on the attached order notify Dill
OF lading is his signature. The GER
tifcate will be irremovably attacheo
TO the bill of lading covered by 1t,
and. as an additional safeguard the
bill Of lading, in addition to its own
number, will bear the number of the
certificate issued in connection Wltn
II Agents will be instructed not to
sign bills of lading until the cotton
,s in the possession OF the railway
company.
"Realizing the importance OF THIS
matter, the officers in charge are H.
structed to adopt every precautlon 70
make the regulations effective es'
pecially that prohibiting the issue OF
these bills of lading before cotton
has been received by the carrier. II
is believed that the effect OF these
safeguards will be to prevent al!
such manipulation Of bills OF ladlng as
if is alleged was practiced in connec-
tion with last years crop, but as
have said, for which the railways
we're in no way responsible"

thing else. Nobody thinks that oil
inspection is the real reason for levy
ing the tax, but if the state must
have money from the Oil people, 1t
should get 1t through an increase In
the franchise or license taxes. Either
of these courses would necessarily
raise the price of oil, but neither
would place so immediate or so heavy
a burden on the consumer. IT Will be
better to raise 100000 a year by a
franchise taN that might raise the
price OF oil 20 cents 81 barrel than to
raise 100000 by making the poor
man pay every time lie fills his oil
can.
1t is very well to tax the company
that furnishes the oil, but IT is bad
policy to tax the oil. 1t is an abso-
Lutte necessity in many sections of Nir-
ginia, and must be used by many of
our citizens no matter what its price
may be. The man who burns one lamp,
