Suicides Note Unfinished.

While seated at a table in a saloon
here writing a letter, Daniel Maple,
No. 1872 North Broad street, fell to the
floor unconscious. While he was be-
ing carried to an ambulance, a bottle
which had contained carbolic acid
fell from his pocket. He died while
being taken to a hospital. Maple

poses. He took it to the saloon and
drank it and then started to write a
farewell letter to his family. He had
written but a few lines when he be-
came unconscious.

The Church Bell.

The ringing of the church bell ought
not to be regarded as merely an in
vitatory signal for the assembling of

solemn significance, like that of the
music Of the organ signalling that
'the Lord is in his holy temple" and
as sounding the first note Of that
alteration which impels the true Chris
tan to worship the Lord in the
beauty Of holiness THE Texas

Cotton Buyer Willing to Aid ''Buy
Bale Of Cotton Plan.

Mr.. j. +. Glenn, one of the cotton
buyers stationed in this city, has VOL
unteered his services to ary person
in Sumter who wishes to join the
Buy a Bale of Cotton" plan. which
is spreading all over the South. MIR.
Glenn has offered to purchase and
warehouse for anyone free of charge
a bale of cotton, if they will send
him the necessary money to make the
purchase.
This offer is made because of the
fact that Mr.. Glenn realizes that COM
paratively few persons know how to
grade the cotton and would not know
what they were buying, unless they
secured some competent grader to
grade the bale. Mr.. Glenn's services
will be entirely without charge and in
the interest Of the "Buy a Bale of
Cotton" plan, which he realizes is a
good method to aid the cotton farm
ers in the present crisis.
