Big Wheat Crop Expected.

A winter wheat crop of $685. :
100000 bushels from Al, 263, 900
acres sown to this grain last fall
was predicted in the May l re-
port of the department of agri-
culture on grain. The estimate
shows an increase over that of
April /, due to improvement in
conditions since that date.
Interest in the May grain re-
port of the department of
agriculture centered in the win
ter wheat crop which was
planted last fall on the most
extensive area ever seeded with
that cereal, but which owing to
unfavorable conditions showed
on December l a condition below
the ten-year average. The crop
came through the winter fairly
well but the Hessian fly was
reported in several sections,
giving some apprehension.

Drought Broken by Storm.

A storm of almost cyclonic
proportions visited Fort Mill
and vicinity Friday afternoon
about a o'clock. The wind
during the storm was estimated
to have reached velocity of 40
to so miles an hour. The only
damage reported, however, was
the disarrangement of the
Southern Power company's
wires, and the burning out of
numerous fuses of the local
electric company, as a result of
which a number of citizens were
without lights Friday night.
The storm was accompanied
and followed by downpour of
rain which broke a serious
drought of four weeks stand
ing, and which had already
become very serious, a large
number of fields of cotton not
having come up. Oats were
suffering more than anything
else and the crop in this COM
munity will be cut short.

ming, parts of Marlboro county,

In Manning Miss Clara Bag
gett was instantly killed by the

In the same block Beasley Davis
and a negro porter lost their
lives in the collapse of a store.

for both white people and ne
groes. Eleven were injured.
Elloree suffered much property
damage but no loss of life. Two
churches and a large warehouse

MANY LIVES WERE LOST
when iUSITAMIA SANK

The Cunard liner Lusitania,
sister ship of the Titanic, was
sunk Friday afternoon by a
German submarine off the Irish
coast. The owners of the boat
announced that the total num-
Der of persons on board the
Lusitania, including passengers
and crew, was 2,O49. Of this
number 703 are known to have
been saved, leaving the death
list numbering 1,346.
Out of the 1873 Americans who
sailed from New York on the
Lusltania, only 49 are known to
have been saved.
Latest reports indicate that at
least 1,300 lives were lost when
the ship went down. So far
SIX hundred and forty-eight sur
Vlvors have been landed. A
hundred persons died while
being taken ashore, or in a short
time thereafter. Most of the
officers, excepting Captain Tur-
ner, who reached land, were
among the lost. Many were
wounded by the explosion of
the torpedoes and hundred
bodies were picked up near the
scene shortly afterwards.
The torpedoes struck the ship
while the passengers were at
lunch. There was little panic,
as the ship sank too quickly.
But few boats were launched
and some of these were capsized
in the water, adding to the
disaster.

CHARLESTON POLICE
SEIZE MUCH LIQUOR

Nearly 5000 bottles of beer
and an immense quantity of
whiskey has been seized by the
Charleston police since the law
enforcement campaign was be-
gun, according to reports filed by
Mayor Grace with Governor Man
ming. The Charleston mayor,
without comment, forwarded the
reports of Chief of Police Can't
well, which were in part as fol-
lows:
L beg to advise that three
squads and detective department
assigned to enforce law have
made $40 raids. confscating and
delivering to the county dispen-
sary the following wines, liquors,
ETC.: 1864 bottles of beer, ITO
half-ints of whiskey, 80 quarts
of whiskey, 5 quarts of wine, 6
gallons OF whiskey and one-half
barrel of wine containing 27 gal
Ions. In addition to this, &c kegs
of beer were confiscated and
emptied in the sewer, 60 were
seized and demolished and all
gambling has been suppressed, 43
places have discontinued the
illicit sale and all others have
been driven to cover and now
resort to the hip pocket practice
and only keep sufficient stuff on
the premises to supply the i'm
mediate. demands. They re-
plenish their stock from private
residences in the locality under
cover. but by continually raiding
them they will eventually have
to go out of business. This de-
partment has conscientiously en-
forced the law and will continue
to do so, even though it over
taxes the department by drafting
men from the line of protection
to the public in it's endeavors to
enforce the law"
