Death of a Young Man.

After being ill for several weeks,
Mr.. Marcellus Hammond succumbed
to a stubbord attack of typhoid fe-
yer at the home of his father, Mr..
J. R. Hammond, Monday after
noon. The funeral was held at
Red Hill Church Tuesday after
noon, Rev. j. T. Littlejohn oficia-
ting. Mr.. Hammond had just
reached young manhood and was a
great joy to his parents and the
other members of his home. Why
he should thus have been cut down
is one of the dispensations of Irovi-
dence that the finite mind can not
now fathom. At the last day His
plan will be revealed. There are
left to Mr.. and Mrs. Hammond
three other children and one OF
them, a son, is also stricken with
fever. May the Great Physician
be tenderly near this home!

EXPORTS
THAN RECEIPTS
Predicted That This VIII Be the
Record Week For Shipment
This Season.

NEW ORLEANS, Feb. I.-Shipments
of cotton from ports today were over
100000 bales larger than receipts, to-
falling 155,647, against 55,249 receiv-
cd. Foreign shipments aggregated
136,493 bales. These figures gave
strength to predictions that this will
be the record weel Tor exports thus
far this season just as the shipments
today made a new record.
Bulls predict that the export move
msnt for February will be over L.
100000 bales or about 100000 bales
larger than January exports. This
forecast Is based on the large freight
bookings. the continued spot demand
and the piling up of stocks ut the
ports, although port stocks lost S5.-
22S bales today, being reduced to L.
10000.
In some quarters 1t was predicted
that the height of the export move
ment will not come until March.
shippers now are paying 1875 bale
for room for Rotterdam and all avail
able ships are being pressed into the
cotton trade.
The total amount or cotton on ship
board at all ports on the week end was
519,223 bales, breaking all records.
Over ten million bales of the crop al
ready have been marketed and many
local traders think the remainder of
the crop may he sold more easily, than
was the. first ton million bales.

TRANSMISSION LINE
OUT OF COMMISSION
FOR SHORT WHILE YESTER-
DAY ON ACCOUNT OF
SHORT CIRCUIT
SOON REPAIRED
Wire Came IN Contact With Wet
3 Pole just West of Oliver
Bolts Residence.

A short-circuit on the transmission
lines of the Southern Public Utilities
Company between Portman Shoals
and the city, caused. by a wire coming
In contact with an extremely wet pole,
at q point just west OF the home of
Mr.. Oliver Bolt, crippled the several
cotton mills about the city using cleo
tfte current for several hours yasteEE
day. s. IS
The trouble occurred shortly after
0 o'clock yesterday morning and by 2
O'Clock in the afternoon the cause OF
trouble had been discovered. BY g
O'Clock the damage had been repaired
and the transmission lines restored to
service.
AS soon as the transmission line
went ont commission the steam
turbine auxiliary plant In the city was
nred up. This was started working
about i O'Clock and supplied power
until the Portman Shoals power was
brought into service again.
Manager II. A. Orr of the Anderson
bTaneh of the Southern Public utifi-
ties Company stated that the short
circuit was caused by cross arm on
cedar pole giving way slightly and
allowing the wire to come In contact
with the pole. The pole forms the
point OF an angle In the line and for
this reason the cross arm had to give
way only q few inches In order 10
cause the wire to come into contact
with the pole. The uarticuiar pole
where the cross circuit occurred Is OF
cedar and had become thoroughly
soaked with rain, which caused the
wire to become grouhded as soon as
1t touched. 9
The Anderson Cotton Mills. the Orr
Mills. the Townsend Twine Mil and
the Equinox Mill were affected by the
disabling OF the transmission line. The
power from the Gregg Shoals plant
kept the city supplied With current, S.
industries of smaller nature wers
not affected by the trouble on the
Portman Shoals line.
