The Only Man.

The farmer is the only man in the
world that can raise farm products at
a loss and still stay in the business.
The business man that does business
at loss soon goes to the wall; all
kinds of business must yield to a
profit or else go into liquidation.
Here is an object lesson for the farm
er if he will only take it; any product
that the farmer raises, that does not
yield a profit should be abandoned.
Since something to eat is so high in
price, is a good time for the farmer
to raise plenty for home consumption,
and some to spare; and then the COT
ton crop could be reduced without
much effort upon the part of those
engaged in the business, and cotton
would then command price COM
mensurate with it's cost.-Texas Farm

TRIED TO TAKE HER LIFE.
Chester Girl Attempted Suicide on a
Main Street of the Town.

Chester, Feb. 21.-Miss Rosa Lem
on, a resident of the Eureka mill viii
lage, made desperate but ineffect-
ual effort to commit suicide on one
of the main streets of this city.
Troubled over domestic affairs and
especially angered at her mother for
chastisement, the 16-year-old girl
fastened to a drug store and pur-
chased 10 cents worth of laudanum.
When about block distance from the
store, she unwrapped the bottle, ex-
tracted the stopper and took the drug.
Policeman Caldwell, attracted by the
peculiar manners of the girl, and
detecting what she had done, hurried
her to DR.. w. R. Wallace's Office.
After two hours strenuous work on
the part of Dr. Wallace and the chief
of police, Miss Lemon was granted a
longer lease on life.

Negro Acquitted.

Winnsboro, Feb. 23.-The negro,
Will Suber, who killed white man
named Bouknight at Blair several
months ago, was found not guilty at
the recent court Of general sessions,
which adjourned last night after three
days of busy work. The testimony on
the part of the State and that Of the
defense showed conclusively that the
negro was shot in the back by his as
sailant before he pulled his pistol and
gave the white man mortal wound
in the stomach. After hearing the
testimony in the case the presiding
judge, Ernest Gary, declared that he
could not conscientiously impose a
sentence on the defendant if he was
convicted, and instructed the foreman
of the jury to write out verdict of
not guilty.

The English Language.

The Winston-Salem Journal quotes
an exchange as saying:
"a crowd of ships is termed a
fleet; a fleet of sheep is called a
flock; a flock of girls is called a
bevy; bevy of wolves is. called a
pack; a pack of thieves is called a
gang; a gang of angels is called a
host; host of porpoises is called
a shoal; shoal of buffaloes is called
a herd; herd of children is called
a troop; a troop of partridges is
called a covey; a covey of beauties
is called a galaxy; a galaxy of ruff
fans is called a horde; a horde of
rubbish is called heap; heap of
oxen is called a drove; a drove of
hoodlums is called a mob; mob OF
whales is called a school; school OF
worshippers is called a congregation;
congregation of engineers is called
a CORPS; a corps of robbers is called
a band; a band of bees is called a
swarm; a swarm of people is called
a crowd"
All of which causes the Journal to
remark that the English language is
thing of beauty but not always a
JOY forever.

Tennessee "Drys" Appeal to Voters.

Nashville, Tenn, Feb. 21.-Call-
ing on friends of prohibition to stand
tonight and fight for a legislature
that will take no backward step in
liquor legislation but will make pro-
vision for efficient enforcement of the
present laws, the Tennessee State ex-
ecutive committee on law anforce-
ment, appointed at the Thanksgiving
Day prohibition conference, issued an
address to-day.
The committee predicts that the
opposition will set to music for the
coming campaign the proposition OF
"submission to the voters" as regards
the liquor question until they get con-
troll of the government and election
machinery, when the question will
cease to be a live issue. The COM
mittee considers it more advisable
that the prohibition question be set
at rest by the election of the govern
or and legislature in November.
Legislation urged by the committee
includes making it unlawful to sell
beverages containing more than one
half of one per cent. alcohol; making
city authorities responsible to the
State government to intervene where
officials fail to enforce the law.

TUNNEL THROUGH SNOW.
Is Made to Rescue Passenger Train
Buried Thirty.Six Hours.

A train carrying a theatrical COM
pany and 40 other passengers which
was stalled in the snow on the New
York Central, 10 miles east of Oswe-
go, was released at noon after having
been held sc hours, says an Albany,
N. Y, special. Two big rotary snow
plows had to tunnel through huge
drifts to effect the rescue. Never be-
fore in railroad history in this State,
officials say, has like condition ex-
listed.
Water was kept in the locomotive
by shoveling snow into it. Food for
the marooned was obtained from a
hotel a mile away and the passengers
were kept fairly comfortable during
the long wait.
Two other passenger trains which
had been stalled for "a hours at Red
Creek, near Oswego, were shoveled
out last night.

MOB AT ORANGEBURG JAIL.
Fire Alarm Used to Disperse Crowd
Seeking Girls Assailant.

Orangeburg, Feb. pa little ex-
citement was caused about 1880
O'Clock last night when the fire alarm
was sent in from the county jail box,
and those who responded were in
formed that the jailer had been &C
costed at the door of the jail by
someone, whom he took to be negro,
who asked for the body of Ferdinand
Brown, the negro who is charged
with attempting an assault on COL
ored girl here on last Wednesday
night. Jailer Board says there was
somewhat of a crowd on the street in
front of the prison and in the yard,
and he feared a lynching, so he en-
gagged the parties while his wife
'phoned to fire headquarters, near by,
and asked that the alarm be sent in,
which was done. When the big bell
began to sound it's notes of warn
ing to the city, it is said that the
mob, if, indeed, there was a mob'
very quickly disbanded and melted
away.
It had been reported the day be-
fore that Brown had been captured
and was in Jail, hence the apprehen-
sion of the authorities, but, as a mat
+or of fart BROWN has not been ap-
pretended. and is still at large.

ESCAPING PRISONER KILLED.
Ira B, Hurt Victim of Constable IS
Pistol in Columbia.

Columbia, Feb. 24.-Ira B. Hurt,
a white man, about 25 years old,
was shot and mortally wounded
shortly after noon to-day by Con-
stable Robert o. Thackam. Hurt
died in about three minutes after
the shooting. Hurt was being taken
to the county jail by the constable,
after having been convicted in Magls-
trate James H. Fowles's court during
the morning. When the officer and
his man had proceeded westward on
Hampton street as far as Lincoln,
and in the immediate vicinity of the
Jail, Hurt suddenly darted away, ex-
Calming: you'll have to shoot me.
Mr.. Thackam stated that he called out
to the fleeing man, demanding that
he halt, but when his words failed
to have the desired effect, he shot
with the intention of frightening his
escaped prisoner, but the pistol was
thrown upward when the trigger was
pulled, and in this way Hurt recelv-
ed an unintentional wound that caus-
ed his death.
City Jailer Marion Kramer and
County Jailer Shannon heard the re-
port of the pistol and rushed toward
the man, catching him before he fell,
and taking him to the Jail, where he
was placed on the floor in one of the
Corridors Hurt died as he was being
brought up the jail steps. Mr.. Thack-
am gave himself up to Sheriff w. H.
Coleman and was arrested. Bond will
be arranged for him at once, it is
said.

Taft Makes Charge of Falsehood.

Washington, Feb. 24.-President
Taft to-day denied emphatically that
in a speech in New York on Lincoln S
birthday he said "That the people are
not fitted for self-government." In
the first official statement of this
kind that the White House has ever
issued during the Taft administration
the president calls the circulation of
this story a "falsehood."
The White House statement fol-
lows:
Among the falsehoods that are
now being assiduously circulated by
persons and papers opposed to the
president is one that in his Lincoln
day speech the president argued that
the people are not fitted for self
government President Taft said
nothing on that occasion which could
possibly be tortured into any such
construction.
The speech in which the presl-
dent made reference to popular gov
ernment was delivered at the ban
quet of the State Bar Association in
New York on the night of January
2O.What he then said on this subject
and it was correctly quoted in the
newspapers the following day-was
this:
''The popular government we all
believe in. There are those of us who
believe that all people are not 1T
ted for popular government. The fact
is we know they are not. Some OF
us do not dare say so but I do; and
the question whether people is tlt-
ted for popular government so as to
make that government best for that
people is dc -erlined by the ability
of the. majority of that people to
place upon itself the restraint by
which the minority shall receive JUS
tice from the majority. It is the
question of self-lmposed restraint
that determines whether people is
fit to govern ITSELF

Changed His Plans.

Harrisonburg, Va, Feb. 23.-Six
months ago Levi Sager, of Mechan-
icsville, sc years old, a gray-haired
veteran of the Mexican and civil wars,
became despondent and began to pre-
pare for the end. He had his grave
dug, his tombstone erected and his
coffin made and put in his house,
ready for use. He picked out the
minister for his last sad rites and Sc
lected his pail bearers, and marked
the funeral hymn that he loved best.
Early last Sunday morning the
community was surprised when Mr..
Sager and his daughter-in-law, Mrs.
Diana Sager, so years old, were mar
ried by Rev. w. G. Hoover, of Tim
berville. The bride was left widow
several years ago by the death of
Mr.. Sager's son.
The bridegroom is an old warrior,
with long, flowing white locks, and
was the sprightliest person at the
wedding. His marriage was a sensa-
ton and his friends declare that it
will be many years before he will
need the grave, the tombstone, the
pallbearers and the beautiful hymn
he selected.
Six months ago, Mr.. Sager drove
six miles to Newmarket and came
home with his coffin in full view on
top of his usual load of purchases.
The woman who changed Mr.. Sa-
gers plans is a dashing brunette of
60.
