Snake in Potato Bank.

Occasionally some people make a
run on bank, but here is an instance
of run from bank-and it was not
a sand bank or a money bank. Char
ner &. Gillian, a well known colored
citizen of the county, living on the
Eugene Griffin Barr place beyond
Helena, in renewing subscription to
The Herald and News, related snake
episode. Several days ago his wife
wanted some sweet potatoes for dim
ner and went to the potato bank to
get them. She pulled out one large
potato and was in the act Of reach
ing for another when she discovered
a snake among the potatoes. She
lost no time in getting Charner on the
spot. He tore down the bank and
there, all coiled up with tongue lick
ing out, was large highland moe
casin, which came to its death at the
hands of "the man with the hoe," the
said C. G. Gillian.

WILLIAM ELLIOTT TO SPEAK
ON COOPERATIVE MARKET

Columbia, April 29.-William Eli
lott of Columbia has accepted an IN
vitation extended him by R. c. Ha-
mer, president of the South Caro-
lima division of the American Cotton
association, to speak on cooperative
marketing at the seml-annual meet
ing of the cotton association III Co
lumbia next Wednesday at noon in
Craven hall. The principal object Of
this meeting will be to discuss cooper
ative marketing association IN this
state along plans somewhat similar
to the cooperative marketing assocla-
tions that have proved so successful
in California and other Western
states.
President Hamer said today that
Mr.. Elliott had given much careful
study to the question of cooperative
marketing and was probably the best
qualified man in the state of South
Carolina to speak upon it. He is
thoroughly familiar with every detail
of the subject, said Mr.. Hamer, and in
position to give the farmers any in
formation that might be sought.
Indications point to a very large
crowd at the meeting, it was said yes
terday at the headquarters of the cot
ton association. Fifty or more dele
gates have been appointed from ev-
cry county and notices sent to them.
A very large percentage Of them have
already written indicating their in
tentions of attendance.
President Hamer again today
stressed the fact that the meeting was
open to all of the farmers of South
Carolina whether they have been ap-
pointed delegates or not and it is hop
ed that there will be no hesitation on
the part of any one to attend be-
cause he has not been officially ap-
pointed as a delegate.
The central committee which is to
formulate the plans for the marketing
association will meet Tuesday and
have them ready for submission to
the big meeting on Wednesday.
