Sinclair's first novel, "Springtime
and Harvest" was published in 1901,
but it was by no means one of the
six best Sellers" and added little to
the income of the author. Indeed,
Sinclair was hard put to it to support
his wife and little son, and many
times was tempted to go back to the
pot-boiling thrillers. It was his wife,
it is said, that kept firm in his high
purpose to become the novelist of the
social revolution. the forecaster in

Sinclair's domestic difficulties have
for some time been a topic of spicy
gossip among the highbrows. Yes,
dear, highbrows do gossip. Everybody
does, except deaf and dumb people
who haven't learned the art of digital
conversation Harry Kemp. the
young Kansas poet who is named as
correspondent, became the guest Of
Sinclair at his summer home at Ar
den, Del. about two months ago. The
author of "The Jungle" was very much
interested in Kemp's poetry declar-
ing it "the most significant that has
been produced by any modern Ameri-
can poet" Despite its significance,
the Kansan hadn't been able to get
much of it into print. and Sinclair
sought to find a publisher.
Immediately upon his arrival at Ar
den, say the gossips, Kemp and Mrs.
Sinclair became very friendly. Their
association was purely platonic. Of

freedom of women, SAYS he found

the workhouse. After a brief period
of breaking big'uns into smalluns, the
self-styled "ex-convict" busted himself
with exposing the conditions prevail
ing in the Delaware prison. All this
time the friendship Of Kemp and Mrs.
Sinclair was growing apace, and the
the pair went to New York. where,
Sinclair says, they occupied the same
apartment. Followed the announce

The breaking up of the Sinclair
menage blasts a romance which thriv-
ed on proverty and privation but
which withered and died under the
sun of prosperity. When Upton Sin
clair, working his way through the
College of the City of New York, met
Meta Fuller, there was a case of love
at first sight. Sinclair was as poor as
the proverbial church mouse, and de
rived his meager income from the
writing of nickel "thrillers." After a
period of graduate work at Columbia
University, Sinclair and Miss Fuller
were married. This was in October
1900. Holding that marriage was

were at first inclined to dispense will

NEWS NOTES FROM SALUDA.
John VI. Smith Critically Ill-Yisitor
Talks Of Texas Cotton Crop.

Saluda, July 12.-John NJ. Smith, of
the firm of Smith Brothers, is critical
ly i'll at his home in this town. His
recovery is considered very doubtful.
Besides his family physician, DR.. Wise,
Drs. Pitts and Waters are in attend
ance upon him.
D. n. Smith, of st. Matthews, his
brother, reached Saluda yesterday, be-
ing summoned to his brothers bed
side by telegram.
Smiley Taylor, Florence county
boy, who has been living in Texas for
the past fifteen years. is visiting his
brother, the Rev. E. P Taylor, of this
town. Mr.. Taylor says that the Texas
cotton crop is greatly exaggerated.
The corn crop is practically ruined by
the drought, and that cotton is suffer-
ing very much for lack of rain. Texas,
he sayse, estimates the production for
that State this year even under the
most favorable conditions from now
on at not exceeding three millions Of
bales.

COTTON LICE IN EDGEFIELD.

Edgefeld, July 9.-Two of the best
farmers of the county were yesterday
discussing the prevalency of cotton
lice, one depricating their appearance
and predicting serious results there
from; the othe rrather welcoming
their advent, declaring that he never
knew a good cotton crop made unless
ther were lice in it. One said 1t was
a dangerous pest, but that the ants
their natural enemy-Would destroy
them; the othe" that, instead Of the
ants eating the lice, served as food for
them.
And thus these two thoughtful OBJ
servant and practical farmers were as
divergent in their opinions on the lice
matter as they could we'll be. AS the
News and Courier correspondent lis
tened to the conversation he was con-
vinced how much there is yet to be
learned in the matters pertaining to
agriculture.
