of detective work. Richard Per-
klns, a blacksmith, was at the
station early TO take the train for
Wadesboro. He had on his per-
son a large pocketbook con-
tanning $95 in bills of 81 denomi-

lost the purse before boarding
the train.
Richard discovered his loss at
Wadesboro and Immediately
wired the officers 10 be on the
lookout, and returned on the 10
o'clock train. Officer Fowler
met him at the station and began
the hunt of the missing purse.
Alter inquiring, he discovered
that one James Austin G.. Davis,
negro noted in Monroe for his
inability to hold a steady job,
had been seen at the station
early that morning. In few
minutes James was seen ap-
preaching the station, apparently
intending to catch the Charlotte
train, and Officer Fowler beck
oncd him over. On approach

CHURCH NOTES
Baptist
J. Nj. Sullivan. Pastor.

We appreciate our friends
giving us fruit and melons. and
the offer from many to give us
all we need if we would go after
it.
Last Sunday most of us
thought that the husbandmen
were cruel in the extreme in
treating the owner OF the vine
yard as they did, beating, killing
and stoning his servants when
they were sent to collect the
rent, and finally Staying the only
son. But haven't we done
almost as wickedly in the sight
of God in that we used the preci-
GUS gifts with which he endow-
ed us for ourselves instead of
using them for the glory of
God.
He has given health and
strength, food and raiment and a
beautiful world in which to live
and enjoy all this, and what have
we given TO Him? Have we
paid rent or are we forty years
behind with our dues? Taking
the Lords time, talent and
money and using it in the ser
vice of the devil. "If the right
eouS scarcely be saved where
shall the sinner and the ungodly
appear?
Everybody invited to be with
us Thursday evening to hear
Bro. B. D. Thames of Patrick.
Also all the ladies are invited to
be in our w. M. U. county con-
vention Thursday and Friday.
A good time in store for those
who attend. Come praying that
God may richly bless the good
ladies in their work.
Regret SO much that we miss
ed picnic at Center Grove
school house last Saturday.
Next Sunday, Pageland, II
a. m. and $50 p. m. Taxahaw
meeting will begin with the IL
a. m. hour and continue on
through the meeting at III a. m.
and $3.50 p. m. Pray for all
these services. o

Fighting Behind The Curtains
London, Aug. 18.-The Daily
Express says:
There is little doubt that a |
greal battle is now oc curing in
Belgium between the Germans
and the Belgian and
French allies.
"Our correspondent, in a cryp-
tic dispatch from Ghent, indi-
Gates that the Germans are ad-
vancing on the historic battle
ground of Waterloo, and that
events of the greatest importance
are in progress
A Brussels dispatch to The
Daily Mail says: SHARP fighting
has been in progress since Mon
day morning"
Paris, Aug. 17.-An official
statement tonight says:
The situation continues good.
We are making progress in up
per Alsace. The German forces
are retiring in great disorder,
some towards the north, others
towards the east.
This is proved by the enor-
nous amount of shells, wagons
and provisions abandoned. The
Germans also lost more heavily
in this region than we at first
thought. This is proved by the
number of bodies found.
"Iny Russian army is now
moving forward for an offensive
blow, the result of which will
soon be felt. Already in Galicia
Russian cavalry has crossed the
frontier and Austrian cavalry
and infantry have been routed
while other battalions have turn
ed tail.
Germany is being put on the
defensive, and IT is impossible to
the conclusion that her position
at the front is not all that could
be desired at such a crucial time
Lin her history"

The improvement in methods
OF farming in this section during
the lac: ten years has been Won
derful. This will be noticed on
the farm of Mr.. ]. F. Egerton
two miles east of town as much
as on any farm in the county
perhaps. Twelve years ago bis
farm made three bales OF cotton
and about one hundred bushels
OF corn, and he found it necess-
ary to rent land to help pay ex-
penseS. This same farm now
produces over one hundred bales
OF cotton and about twelve hun
dred bushels of corn per year.
Mr.. Agerton has a field of corn
containing two and half acres
which he expects to yield about
one hundred and twenty-five
bushels per acre this year. This
corn is on that same sandy land
that was so poor twelve years
ago that rabbit had to carry
his rations when travllng across
it. About eighteen dollars worth
OF cpmmezsial fertilizer to the
acre was used this year and the
land was broadcasted with Scrap
ings from the gin yard. He es,
Inmates that the corn will cost
about teirty cents per bushel by
the time it is in the crib. The
corn is six and eight inches
apart in rows five feet wide, and
1t is green to the bottom.
This is not the only farm
where there has been improve
ment, but it shows what is being
done in this section of the sand
bills" A section once known
as one of the poorest in the state
has become one of the best
agricultural communities in the
South. and the price of the land
has jumped from two or three
dollars an acre to thirty, fortv
fifty and on up. Persons who
formerly lived here but who
have been away for ten or
twelve years can hardly believe
their eys when they see what
has been done at the old Fox
place and in the country round
about.

It is called the Hacienda s'achachaca, and it consists of four great farms and it takes from 800 to 1000 Indian families to run it. The owner took me into the court upon which the liquor store faced and showed me how the stuff is brought in from the plantation. It is packed in goatskins containing 100 pounds each and is carried 90 miles upon mules to Cuzco. He opened one of the skins and gave me a taste of the liquor. 1t went down my throat like liquid fire, and he took an alcohol gauge and showed me that the stuff was 53 per cent fine.
