ing, Mr.. Lynch says he expects every
thing to continue high in price for the
next several years, owing to unsettled
conditions and inevitable great de-
mand for foodstuffs and supplies from
the nations of Europe and the rest of
the world after the great war. 1t is
his opinion that cotton will advance
to fifty cents. a pound when the mar
kets of Europe are fully open.
Staunch Democrat.
Mr.. Lynch is staunch Democrat
and a great admirer of President Will
son, for whom he has named his
youngest son. This little boy was
born in the year of Mr.. Wilson's first
election to the presidency. He says
he is going to be a Democrat, too,
when he grows up.
Although strong and robust in his
early manhood, of rugged constitution
and unusual vitality, Mr. Lynch has
had to use stick in getting around
since he was crippled in the war. His
later life has been one of trials and
misfortune. He has retained his
splendid vitality, but some twenty
years ago while working in cotton
mill in Spartanburg, South Carolina,
he was caught in belt and severely
injured. For many months he was
an invalid from this accident and still
suffers with his back and left arm.
Four months ago his sight failed
completely, but one eye has now part
ly recovered and he is able to read a
few minutes at a time. He is very
thankful for this. The loss of his
sight was severe blow. Two of his
! favorite sons have died, and this has
brought additional sorrow into the
old gentleman's life.
Always Cheerful.
But through it all Mr.. Lynch con-
tinues cheerful and optimistic. He has
a ready sense of humor and looks
upon the bright side of all that hap
pens. In talking to the writer, he
summed up his philosophy of life in a
little story.
He told of a man in a town in
which he used to live who had lots of
trouble and misfortune, and who also
was afflicted in having his neck drawn
so that he always seemed to be look
! ing up at the sky.
One day Mr.. Lynch happened to be
standing upon this mans doorstep
waiting to talk with him. In a few
minutes the old fellow came around
the corner, with his face tilted up to
the sky as usual.
His wife came out at the moment,
expecting him, and standing there
watching her husband coming down
the street, she said to. Mr.. Lynch,
@Well, here comes Bob," and sorrow

school education of his time. An apt
scholar, he soon learned his reading,
writing and arithmetic and became a
gold mining in this country and Eng
ing his life he followed the trade OF
gold mining in this county and Eng
land.
When the Civil War broke out, in
81, he was working in a gold mine
near Kings Mountain, North Caro-
lima. At the first call of his country
he volunteered his services and went
to the front with the Cleveland Blues,
of the Sixteenth North Carolina regi-
ment, under Col. Stephen D. Lee.
Veteran of Bull Run.
He fought the enemy at Bull Run,
and saw active service all through
the war except for three months in
the Roper Hospital, in Charleston. in
'63. when he received a bullet wound
in the leg during skirmish on James
Island. This wound left him cripple
but he returned Immediately to active
service despite the protests of the
army surgeons. Mr.. Lynch is fond OF
recounting his war experiences.
Mr.. Lynch has wonderful memory
and talks easily of the days Of his
early life. He has always been fond
of reading. His knowledge of pres
ent-day affairs and conditions and the
clearness with which he discusses
them is remarkable for man of his
age.
In regard to the high cost of 1iv-

of trouble of her husbands life, and
noticing his uptilted head, sympa-
thetically continued, "and still look
ing for more"
"And so it goes," said Mr.. Lynch,
''all Of us have our troubles, and we
just have to laugh at 'em and do the
best we can."
Mr.. Lynch is a man of indominable
will, even at ninety, but kindly and
generous. He is devoted to his chill
drne and spends much of his time in
teaching them useful things to do.
And the children are very fond of
their "daddy," listening with wonder
to tales of his war and gold mining
days, and quick to do his slightest
bidding.
OF Lutheran Faith.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lynch are of Luth-
eran faith. One of their boys is nam
ed Luther, after the founder of the
church. Mr.. Lynch is a man of quiet
habits and he loves his home and
family. His means are moderate and
he has little patch of garden and
one mule. He uses tobacco, and has
from his youth. He likes a good
smoke, but finds his chief enjoyment
in chewing.
Mr.. Lynch attributes his long life
and vigorous constitution to natural

inheritance and plenty of healthful
outdoor exercise. He has always been
a hard worker, and even now is never
satisfied unless he is busy with some
thing.
The Lynch family dates back to the
colonial days in America, when Mr..
Lynch's grandfather came to this
country from Ireland. Longevity OF
life and large families are family
characteristics.

GARY, Ind, Oct. 13.-Pamphlets an
nouncing a plan to wrest control Of
this city from the Federal troops were
scattered throughout the downtown
district this afternoon. The bulletins
called on the workers to rise against
the military.
Col. w. S. Mapes, commanding the
