Narrowly Escaped Death.

A London (Eng.) milk carrier, who was wheeling his barrow along the streets at an early hour, one recent morning, had a miraculous escape from death. A motor-car, which was far exceeding the speed limit, came suddenly upon him, hit him in the back, turned the barrow over and, catching him up, carried him On the axle under the bonnet for a distance of TOO yards. The man sustained broken ribs and severe cuts and bruises.

RISE In THE
COTTON MARKET
Has Been Gradual Increase In
Price.
RANGING FROM 1i3.s TO I'LL.
Everybody is Hoping for a Con.
tiDuance of High Level
Local Market Good.

The most interesting news of the
week has been the advance in the cot
ton market. Gradually the market has
eased up until the price is now rang
ing around 1910.
The Abbeville cotton market has all
through the season maintained a high
er level than any market in this Sec
tion Of the State, In some instances
the price paid here being as much as
a quarter Of a cent above quotations
in nearby towns.
Whether the market will hold the
advance and increase still more Is the
question that everybody would like to
have answered. The general opinion
seems to be that while temporary
breaks may be expected from time to
time, In sympathy with speculation
there Is little probability of a lower
price level, and some even believe
that cotton will 90 still higher.
Yesterday being election day, the
cotton exchanges were closed and the
prices Of Monday governed the local
market. AS high as IL 1-2 was paid by
the local cotton mills yesterday.

V.PRESIDENT SHERMAN
LAID TO REST IN UTICA
High Officers of the Nation and State
Among the MOurners

Utica, N. Y. Nov. 2.-The nation
paid its final mark of respect today
to the memory of Vice President
Sherman through funeral ceremonies
which were attended by President Taft
and many of the country's foremost
men. Prior to the main ceremonies,
which took place in the First Pres
byterian Church, members Of the
Sherman family and it's most intimate
friends knelt in prayer at the dead
statesman's bier. These services were
brief. A few minutes later the funeral
procession was on It's solemn march
from the Sherman home to the church.
To Rev. L. P. Holden, D. D., pastor
of the Reformed Dutch Church, was
assigned the sole conduct Of the cere-
mony at the house while the services
at the church were placed under the
direction of DR.. N. w. Stryker, presi-
dent of Hamilton College, assisted by
DR.. Holden. The program for the
house service contained no provision
for q sermon or eulogy. Its principal
features were prayers from the Dutch
church liturgy and scriptural read
ings.
Proceedings Of more general char
actcr were provided for at the church,
which was heavily draped in black, al
though liberal provision was made for
the display Of the American colors.
Provision was made for only brief
est service possible. 1t was arranged
that 1t should be largely choral and
in addition to the music, prayers and
scriptural readings were provided. The
program also included a brief address
by DR.. Stryker.

REMOVAL OF HEADQUARTERS
OF State Mission Board VIII Come
Before Convention Here in De.
cember

An important matter that will come
before the Baptist State Convention,
which meets in Abbeville December
3rd to 9Th, will be the question of re-
moving the headquarters of the State
Mission Board from. Greenville to
Columbia. For half century Green
vile has been the Mecca for Baptists,
notwithstanding its geographical
place in corner of the State. For
several years there has been grow
ing desire on part of those Baptists
who live in the lower part of the
State to have the Baptist headquarters
located in the Capital, which is in the
geographical center of South Caro-
lima. At the Convention last year the
matter took definite shape and COM
mittee was appointed to investigate
the situation and report this year.
The committee consists Of Rev.
Howard Lee Jones, Charleston, chair
man; George H. Edwards, Esq, OAR
lington; H. H. Watkins, Esq, Ander-
son; Prof. B. E. Geer, Greenville; and
the Rev. G. A. Wright, Newberry. This
committee has looked carefully into
the situation and will report the find
ings and conclusions of it's labors to
| the Abbeville Convention.
Greenville has long been regarded
as the Baptist headquarters for the
State. In Greenville, the Baptists have
their State college for men; one for
women; the denominational newspa-
| per; the State Mission board the
ministerial education board and other
interests. But the Baptists Of Colum-
bia are strong in numbers and influ-
ence. There are seven Baptist church
es in that city, and beyond the city
there live great hosts of Baptists who
desire to be in closer touch with
headquarters" hence the efforts at
removal.
The Baptist associations which are
below" Columbia, including Rich
land county, with their embership,
follow: Aiken, 1922; Barnwell, 1879;
Charleston, 3,776; Chesterfield 2,796;
Colleton, $3.50; Dorchester, 539; Edge
field, 3,112; Edisto, 1922; Fairfield, g.
060; Florence, 1922; Kershaw, 1924;
Lexington, 2,506; Moriah, 3,457; Or
angeburg, 1882; Pee Dee, $500; Ridge,
3,467; Santee, 2,726; Savannah River,
3,646; Southeast, EAST; Waccamaw,
4,699; Welsh Neck, 3,611; total, 72,-
036 members in the 81 associations.
The upper" associations, with their
membership, are: Abbeville, 3,438;
Beaverdam, 1856; Broad River, g.
145; Chester, 1896; Greenville, 1892;
Laurens, 4,744; North Greenville, s.
11S; Pickens, 2,141; Piedmont, 3,11O;
Reedy River, 1,19S; Saluda, 1919;
Spartanburg, 1O,33O; Twelve-Mile. g.
1872; Union County, 2,773; York, 1,763;
total, 66,441, for IA associations. These
figures are taken from the minutes OF
1911. 1t will be seen that, while less
than half the Baptists live in the
Piedmont section, the proportion is
much larger than for the rest Of the
State. The report of the committee will
no doubt evoke considerable discus
sion.

PLANNED TO .GETn BURNS
Mcnamara Not Harmless Even In Cell.
Strange Story on Stand

indianapolis, Ind, Oct. 31.-That
John J. Mcnamara, the dynamiter,
since his Imprisonment in the State
penitentiary at San Quentin, CAL, has
plotted to "get" William ]. Burns, the
detective, and also to "get" Walter
Drew, who worked up evidence
against him, was the substance of tes-
timony at the trial of the alleged dy-
Mantle conspirators today.
The story as related on the witness
stand in the federal court was that
Herbert 8. Hockin went to San Quen-
tin last spring and Mcnamara, while
in conversation with him through the
bars of, the cell said, "I'd like to see
them get burns and Drew"
Edward ]. Brennan, an agent OF
the department of justice, testified the
alleged plotting was related to him by
Hockin. Brennan said that on May
% last he was called into the federal
district attorneys office at Indianap-
oils and there Hockin had confessed
in substance as follows:
Hockin had gone to San Quentin
and had talked to Mcnamara. Nc
Namara said "I'd like to see them get
Burns and Drew" Hockin then went
to San Francisco and met Olaf A.
Tveitmoe, prominent labor leader
Tvietmore advised Hockin to remain
in San Francisco until Anton Johan-
son, another labor leader, could be
called from Los Angeles. This Hook
in consented to.
When he was going TO the station
to return to Indianapolis, Tveiemoe
Johanson, Lewis and Theodore Yeill
accompanied him, Johanson saying
on the way, MAC (meaning NcNa-
mara) is anxious for them to get
Burns"

CONKEY COMPANY MOVES
INTO NEW MODERN BUILDING

The G. E. Conkey Company OF CieVe-
land, Ohio, have just moved into their
new five story building which mas
been equipped especially for tnem
with the latest improved machinery
for the manufacture OF the famous
"Don't Worry" line OF poultry anu
stock remedies.
The Conkey Company's growth mas
been little short of marvellous as they
have had to double their manufactur-
ing quarters twice within the past
two years.
This is due of course to the splen-
did quality Of their goods and to the
fact that everything they make Is
sold on the distinct understanding
that it must give satisfaction or the
purchase price will be cheerfully re-
funded.
The Conkey Company believes tnat
newspaper advertising is more valu-
able than any other form they nave
used and their results should prove
helpful to other advertisers.
