With Our Haynes Friends.

A Times man visited Haynes on Tuesday, where he was most cordially received and welcomed hy all of his old-time friends, and where he was gratitied to find all the business people and farmers optimistic over the out look for better times this fall and winter. The merchants of Haynes are laying in attractive stocks of new merchandise and thus far the two gins at that point have giured close to 1000 bales. The modern ginnery of J. !, Hughes is being operated this season under the capaaie management of MT Joe Rodgers, assisted by his son, Floyd, while the gin plant owned by MT, J. l.. Hughes is running under the personal supervision of MT Hughes himself
 Although he has been suffering for several days past with an attack of biliousness, or something like hay fever, MT. J. J. Hughes, Jr.. is still up and about, and said that however much he would like to, he could not afford to go to bed at this stage of the game, when pressing fall business de- manded his close and constant atten- tion.
 We found all of the old-timers at their several posts of duty, MT. and Mrs. J, II. Draper looking after the affairs of the postotlice and managing the J. l.. Hughes store; Messrs Harry Draper and Tom Casteel salesmen, and Miss Stella Andrews, bookkeeper. at the store of J. J, Hughes, Jr., Old Man Ben Curtis in charge of the buSi. ness at the w. B. Curtis store Jack lalbert and Ed Rodgers holding down their jobs at the same old stand MT. and Mrs. George R. Robuck, MT. Dia- mond and "Uncle' Tom Phillips at their accustomed posts in the at tractive Robuck store: and Alex. Clark catering to the wants of the public in fresh meats and groceries.
 Haynes Is fine little town, filled with number of the finest people on earth. Among others with whom we talked with much interest and pleas ure relative to crop conditions and business prospects, were Col. Friar and MT. George Ben Daniel, two of the oldest and most substantial citizens in Union township, and MT W. s. | Hughes, who is just now busily en- gagged in harvesting splendid crop and who informed the writer that he | had just finished digging fine yield | or sweet and Irish potatoes, and was
