Iron Market Better

with the opening of the summer sea- son the pig iron market looks better and better" say Matthew Addy & Co in their Cincinnati report "There is enough busi- ness to give everyone share. Our own reports from the users of iron are en- couragng. We find that practically all concerns are buster than they were 50 days ago and all of them are doing more now than they expected toN be doing There is still complaint in some directions that the prices of finished goods are too low It Is hard to get them up from the low levels of the past two years. This, however, is a part of the great reorGan- ization and revival of trade following panic conditions. As rule, we should say that the melters of iron are about 20 per cent buster than was the case in Jan uary.
 "It is particularly gratifying to note much more business from the railroads. The concerns making equipment for the railroads have had hard and rocky road for To these many months. But they are finding easier going these days for the railroads are buying rails. cars, wheels. etc. The pipe shops are running full. In fact everyone has more orders in hand and is feeling that the tide surely has turned"

Significance of the Live Wire Canva,

"Of course, those of us who made the Live Wire canvass for thousand new

Lazarus. one of the most energetic of the canvassers. "As my friends know, have always been an enthusiastic booster for Birming- ham. but not in my day has the get together spirit been so clearly demon- strated as it has been this week. AS the tabulated report will show the number of
 new members secured runs far above the thousand mark.

microbes than it is to get rid of them,
and single stroke of an infected

PACKING THE MEETINGS.
Why the Aiken Meeting Was Said to
be for BleaSe.

A correspondent of the Augusta
Chronicle from Graniteville says: Il
notice by to-day's paper that yester-
days campaign meeting at Aiken was
reported as being a Blease meeting.
From the standpoint of votes it was
not. The Jones men anticipated their
move by scattering men through the
crowd to find out where the Blease
supporters came from. We know
that Saluda furnished sixty, Edge
field forty, Barnwell seventy-fve, Co.
lumbia forty and Augusta 200, max
ing a total of AIS Blease phono-
graphs that cannot vote in Aiken
county. These men were paid to
come to this meeting, were instruct
ed how to vote in the hand primaries,
viz: by putting both hands up. Then
there were lots of women and chill
dren who voted the same way so you
can readily see that when wou elm
mate these so-called votes, he had a
very slim showing, indeed

SHOOTING IN LEXINGTON.
Policeman Taylor Wounds Man who
ResistS Arrest.

Lexington, July 2S.-Tyler Hill, a
negro, was shot and dangerously
wounded by Policeman Albert Taylor
about II o'clock last night. Hill had
previously cut Boyse Clay, another
negro, on the street, and when the
policeman went to arrest him Hill
ran, followed by the officer and others
who had joined in the chase. After
a long chase the officer came upon
Hill, who resisted, attempting to
shoot the officer, it is stated, and the
officer raised his gun and fired. The
ball entered at the mouth and came
out at the back of the neck. DR.. E.
P Derrick attended Hill, and while
the wound is very serious, it is
thought that the negro will recover
Boyse Clay, whom Hill cut, is pain
fully injured, having received two
deep stab wounds in the breast and
a long cash on the arm. Both, Hill
and Clay were drinking heavily, it is
said, at the time of the difficulty.

Carlisle Fitting School.
Says The Bamberg Herald:

Says The Bamberg Herald:
MIR. J. c. Guilds, head master OF
the Carlisle Fitting School, tells us
that he has already in hand a great
many more applications for admls-
sion of students that at any time in
the history of the school. The pros
pect is for the largest attendance OF
any one year since the school was es-
tablished.'
The Carlisle Fitting School, under
the guidance of Mr.. Guilds, is &C
complishing the most encouraging
results. The more schools like it
that can be built up in different parts
of South Carolina the better it will
be for the State. We are greatly
pleased to learn of it's increasing
prosperity, and we could only wish
that all of it's friends would realize
more fully what its opportunities are
and what it is doing and would rally
to it's financial assistance. Already
it is of large benefit to that part OF
the State in which it is located; but
it's sphere of usefulness might easily
be expanded were the funds avail
able. 1t is exceedingly fortunate in
its head.
The above is from the editorial
columns of the News and Courier,
and it should be remembered that the
editor of that newspaper paid a per-
sonal visit to the school some months
ago. And yet we understand that
some of our citizens are not as loyal
to the school as they should be.
Surely if they have a reason for not
standing by the school, does it not
seem to be only fair to the institution
and their interests as we'll, to confer
with the head of the school before
making criticisms or inducing par
ents to send their boys and girls
elsewhere If the people of Bam-
berg do not stand by an institution
of their own how can they expect
others to do so? Bamberg citizens
should stand by Bamberg institu-

Told Boy to Shoot.

gave him permission to shoot me, )"
wrote out Louis Dion, aged II in a
boyish scrawl on a piece of paper to-
day, then stood up before Henry
Talbot, aged IL, who shot him dead
through the heart.
The shooting was the result of a
boys pride in his new 22-calibre rifle
and a dare from a companion who
"did not believe it could kill any
one"
The rife belonged to the Talbot
boy who was shooting it from the
window of his home. Young Dion
came along and remarked that his
brother had similar rife and it was
mo good
Give me permission to shoot you
and I'll show you whether it is any
good,' the Talbot boy is alleged to
have said. Dion wrote out the per
mission on a slip of paper. Immedi-
ately there was a shot from the rifle
and Dion fell dead.
Talbot and Henry White, aged II,
who witnessed the shooting, were ar
rested on charge of manslaughter.
The police claim to have the note
written by Dion.

act play that just bursts with snap.
I'll give it to you. Here it is:
play opens with man and woman

passionately.

Intended for Him.

SONS house and made a present of a
fine turkey to the judges wife.
"Mah brother had two" he said
to ease her suspicious, "and so he
gave me this one"
Mrs. Ransom gave him in return
two bright silver dollars, on the con-
dition that the bird was a tame tur.
key and not of the wild kind, be-
cause the Judge detested getting his
mouth full of shot every time he
wanted a bite.

ly.
That night Judge Ransom and his
wife sat down to deliciously brown
ed turkey, piping hot. At the first bite
the Judge jumped to his feet, splitting
grape shot in all directions.
Send for that fellow, he shouted
wrathfully. In due time a panic
stricken Rastus came in trembling.
"I sent for you, you black scoun'
drel, to ask you why in the Sam Hill
you lied about that turkey not being
wild one? Why, it was loaded with
bird shot,
Dem shot was intended for me

No questioner of the governor at a
campaign meeting should ask an in
sulting question, but when any voter
asks civil question in reference to
the record of the governor, he should
receive a civil answer and not be in
suited. When Governor Blease is
questioned he insults his questioners,
but when Judge Jones is questioned
he always answers as a gentleman
should, even though some times his
interrogation is somewhat under the
influence of liquor. We hope the
voters will go on asking the governor
questions about his public record,
his answers lose him votes every
time.
