A NEW STORY.
When Henry Irving's Wife Saw Good
Acting.

Booth told me one story of Irving
that revealed a tragedy in that gifted
mans life, says Edwin Milton Royle,
in Harper's. One day, as they were
sitting in Booths room in the thea
tire, the latter was handed a letter.
Irving casually remarked that he rec
ognized the handwriting. Booth Of
fered it to him, and asked him if he
cared to read it. Fortunately the
Englishman declined. Mr.. Booth
opened it and read the following
from Mrs. Henry Irving:
Dear Mr.. Booth: Can you spare
me a box? l should like to have my
sons see what good acting is.
During my first season with Booth,
quite by accident I found myself in
a boarding house in San Francisco
kept by very sweet, quaint, old
English lady, who was an aunt of
Henry Irving, and she told me that
Mrs. Irving had been known to occu-
py a box at her husbands perform
ances and ostentatiously read a news
paper during the performance.

PEPPER AT MULLINS.
Marion County Farmers Trying Out
New Crop.

Marion County Farmers Trying Out
New Crop.
Very few people around Mullins
know that pepper to the extent of
more than fifty acres has been plant
ed in this section. Such is the case,
however, and it is said that the crop
is looking fine. Pepper was intro
duced here last year, and then only
on very moderate scale. The crop
was said to have turned out we'll and
this year the acreage was greatly in
creased. Gradually the farmers. are
turning their attention to products
other than cotton and tobacco.
The secretary of State Monday is
sued a charter to the Carolina Pepper
association, of Ebenezer, with a capi-
tai stock of $4,000. The officers
are: E. E. McGill, president; H. E.
Marlborough, vice president; R. S.
Hepburn, secretary and treasurer.
In addition to the pepper several
have planted hemp-an entirely new
industry for this section, though
known in other parts Of the State.
Mullins should be a live place this
fall, with plenty of money stirring.
With IL cents cotton, go cents for
seed, high priced tobacco, a good pep
per crop, with other sides lines, the
farmers seem to be coming into their
own, and when the farmers are pros
porous all classes of trade are af-
fected in due proportion.
While the tobacco crop will be
short it is expected that the advance
in prices will make it average up or
possibly pay better than the crop of
last year.
Cotton seed lay in the ground so
long that when they came up the
grass did likewise, and now the farm
ers are having a time trying to clean
it out. However, with the good
growing weather it will not be long
before everything will be put in or
der.-Mullins Enterprise.
