TEN WILL BE TRIED ON
MURDER CHARGES

Anderson, Sept. 4.-Judge Frank
Gary of Abbeville will preside at the
court of general sessions here next
week.. This will be a particularly
heavy court, as there are ten MUIR
der cases, besides 20 cases of viola
tions of prohibition. The court may
be delayed on account of the death
of Clarence E. Tolly, who was fore
man of the grand jury. A new fore
man will have to be selected and a
new juror sworn in.
There are three murder cases
which will be of great interest: that
of H. 81. Herring, charged with kill
ing Clarence E. Tolly; Ernest Ash
ley, charged with shooting Arthur
Hughes in Honea Path, who died
later in local hospital, and Sloan
Jones, who is charged with killing
Joe Statsney when he fired at an
other man.

EXPECT HALF A CROP
Weevil Damage Severe Down In
Orangeburg

Orangeburg, Sept. 6.-The cot
ton ginning season has opened in
Orangeburg County and heavy gin
ming. is being reported. Owing to the
hot weather of the past week cotton
has opened rapidly. The outlook in
Orangeburg county is for about half
a crop. The boil weevil has infested
the entire county and in about half
the county has reduced the crop at
least one-half, and in a great many
instances to one-third. The situation
is alarming to business in the county
as the crop made on high prices, and
with the severe weevil damage and
the low price of the staple finan-
cial unrest is setting in.

CITY SCHOOLS
OPENED TODAY
With Largest Enrolment For First
Day in History Of the Schools.
Total Enrolment 632.

The city schools opened this
morning with the largest enroll
ment for the first day in the his.
tory of thes chools. The initial en-
rollment of the, graded schools is
512 and of the high school 12O
making a total enrolment for the
first day of 632. This is an increase

by grades today is as follows: First.
64; second, Sd; third, 80; Fourth
IA; fifth, 81; sixth, 50; seventh, 43

The enrolment in the high school
is especially large as the highest
enrolment of last session in this de-
partment was 105.
1t is noticeable that the third
grade is crowded and some other at
rangement will possibly have to be
made if any more children enter
this grade. Judging from the re-
cords of last session the total enroll
ment in the city schools will exceed
750 before this session is over.

Other proposals adopted urge es-

ings are to be held in all counties to
develop interest in the program of
the association.
The principal address of the day
was delivered by Judge W. T. RAM
seq, governor of the Eleventh district
federal reserve bank, who deplored
the action of fixing the price of cot
ton at 40 cents, declaring that it
could not be achieved. He brought a
note of pessimism into the conven
ton by declaring the farmer must
practice strict, economy and prepare
for hard times.
The convention voted to meet in

THE WOMEN
REGISTERING
In the City Today.-Mrs. Minshall
First to Register-Books Will
Be Open Until Thursday

Today gave the women their first
opportunity to register in order to
participate in future elections. At
noon today fourteen had registered
and are now qualified electors.
The first to register was Mrs.
Rachel Minshall, postmaster at Abb
beville. Others who have registered
are: Abbeville precinct, Mrs. Hen
rietta Garrison, Mrs. Ella Cox
Cromer, Miss Mamie Seal, Mrs.
Ellen G. Penney, Mrs. Fred S. Hill,
Mrs. C.. M. Mckenzie, Mrs. Hannah
H. Coleman, Mrs. T. D. Harrison,
Mrs. O. J. Harrison.
Due West: Mrs. E. S. Crockett,
Mrs. G. C. Pressly, Mrs. Bennie j..
Crockett.
Keowee: Mrs. Essie Ashley, Mrs.
Lillian Moore, Mrs. W. D. Thomas,
Mrs. J. W.. |Branyon, Miss Annie
Branyon, Mrs. Mollie B. Branyon,
Mrs. L. Elmer Branyon.
In order to register it is necessary
that he applicant state her age. This
has deferred a good many from TAX
ing the leap. They do not care par
ticularly about people knowing
their ages, but this thing of making
public record Of them is another
matter.
This seems to be about the only
trouble the women are experien-
cling in the matter. Some of them
do not pay taxes , on three hundred
dollars worth of property for the
reason that the men have been play
ing the Lordly act and returning
the property Of the wives in their
own (the husband's) name but the
women are taking care of that diff
ficulty by reading and explaining
iany section of the constitution to
the entire satisfaction of Col. Boles,
Col. Cheatham and Col. Pete Arm
strong.
The books Of registration are to
!be kept open until Thursday in or
der to give all the women a chance
to register. 1t is believed that a
number will register in that time.
Not being able to participate in
the primary this year the women
are of course not bound by the nomi-
lnees of the primary and may run a
ticket of their own. Should they
register in great numbers before the
day of election, it is not at all un-
likely that Hubert Cox will have
opposition in the General Election
for his place in the legislature and
he may have to stump the county
again with Mrs. Betsy Smith, Mrs.
Allie Cromer or Mrs. Patsy Cole.
man as his opponent. Even Jim Cox
may have opposition in his race, for
