The cotton crop in Cleveland is not good, but it is improving. A few farm ers have abandoned a small part of their cotton, too grassy to work. The outlook for the crop is not encoiu’aging and cot ton will be disastrously low—some think about eight cents.' Church Nototf.'

A clever colored man, Nelson London, near Shelby, sent us June 25 a red cotton bloom two days old. Next W. E. Dycus left in our office on June 25th. W. Dan Turner sent by inail one Jun.e 26th. This is early for this year’s Itackward season. Lr. D. S Ilarmou, Oculist, Whom our citizens kindly remember, is now located at Kutherfordton where ho wiU remain until August first. His skill in adjusting glasses to different de fects of vision is well known here, for a htindred. per&ons here have purchased spectacli}?; iror^ this Kussiau oculist, Dr P J-.;.^on.

It seems from the report that Evanj list Fife, ift»*his la^ night's sermon made some untJbmplimcniary rdlus>ions to the familj: of Judge Schenck. It was abo^ Mrs. Schenck chaperon ing a german ajshort time ago at the old Guilford batll«;ground. Judge Schenck’ sons took, 'offense at the remarks, and went to the McAdoo house a short while after tho services weriB over and called Mr. Fife out and made assault on him. During the alfray a pistol was fired and sticks were used very freely. Mr. Fife was badly bruised about the face and head. Judgo Schenck denounced Mr. Fife in bitter terms. The citizens of the town were very much incensed at the course pursued by Judgo Schenck, in fact the feeling ran so high that this morning a large number of citizens met in mass meeting at the courthouse and passed resolutions denouncing the course pur sued by Judge Schenck and three sons. Six warrants have been issued for the arrest of Judge Schenck and hi^i sons. Masouic Officer. The Shelby Masons held rocently their annual election of officers and the fol lowing were chosen: .1. L.

The Camden band disc-.>ursod music and the base ball teams in gay uni forms were as happy as a big sunfiower. A large crov\-d gathered to witness two match games Thursday, one in Shelby in the morning, the other in the afternoon at Cleveland Springs. In both contests Shelby came off victorious as usual. The score stood in Shelby in the morning game: Camden fi and Shelby 8. In the afternoon game Camden o and Shelby 13. The Camden team played well, but Shel by was the victor us usual. Our boys are hard to defeat. Eugene Bagwell. Tates Webb and John Leak deserve special mention as good players in the Shelby nine. Paul Webb an excellent catcher behind tho bat. Jones, tho pitcher, James Ardrey, the catcher, were, the best players in the Camden team. > GKOVER GOSStP. ractory-l'ersonals—Prohibltioii and Other Nows. 'HELBY MARKET. 1- sack, ^^‘er-bushol, ^ KINO COTTOif. The Outlook Gloomy-^Cotton May Sell In Shelby for Zes* Than Eight Cents per Pound. Quiet and Orderly Excursionists. The “brother in black” with a brass band attachment was in his glory here Tuesday and only needed more “water millions” to add to his happiness. Two hundred xjolored excursionists from Cam den, Lancaster, Rock Hill and Yorkville were here Tuesday and many citizens complimented them upon their good be havior and order. It was the best be- haved crowd of colored people that we ever saw and they deserve honor. Shelby has no barrooms—that explains their good and quiet -Q^duct, free from any disturbance. Declined With Thanks. A subscriber wishes us to publish the ten commandments. Under the peculiar circumstances surrounding a poor editor, we must decline to doit. It is true tii,, look for the fju-m7r whoTlantrallcotton Tho cottou crop has now reached 8,- 500,000 bales, yet September will add aV loae^on ' " '" total of 'J'his excess of two millions above con sumption meatis disaster and financial ruin to the Southern farmer burdened with a mortgage and debts. The South • handicapped by last year’s big crop and surplus, and this year’s crop will an average yield. This means low prices and debt for the South. Cotton .will October about eight cents, perhaps ;s. The heavy receipts, the big sur- us of t^million bales, the lavorable crop reports from all states have put cob~ ton at less than eight cents in New York today and made it tumble below the bot tom price. It has not been so low infor- years and futures foi^ Octol)er and November are 8.25 in New York. If futures are so low in New York •where men make cotton their business and daily study and thus stake their mon- on their views, what will it be in Oc tober and November in Shelby ? Remem ber it takes nearly one cent to ship and cotton. Farmers must use economy, tU^y wish to escape disaster. The Aurora is no alarmist, but the out- Ccrrespoudence Shelby Aurora. Since the Prohibition election Grove lias been one of the most quiet places I i evci saw. It seems as though some one,UerVper pound, . IS dead. „ ./p, pet-dozen, Trade is dull, owiuf; to the farmers beM?:,„, > ' iiig SQ busy lu their crops.

The runnei’, Mr. Leak, being in front of the pitcher received a severe blow on the neck and jaw and nearly fainted. His jaw was swollen sev eral days, so that he had to eat liquid food. It is said that in playing cricket, as popular in England as base ball is in America, twelve men have been killed in England. So it appears that base ball is not quite so dangerous as cricket. / Prohibition Mcetins: Next Monday. In last week’s issue John F. Schenck, chairman, called for the citizens of Cleve land to assemble next Monday noon in Shelby to discuss and devise methods to enforce Prohibition. The laws are strin gent and our citizens should submit to the decision of the ballot box. But Pro- ■ hibition will not prohibit, unless men ^show backbone, prosecute offenders and unite"to.',upbpld tho majesty of the law. No man lias -the right to sell one quai’t, one gallon or a barrel in Cleveland, unless on a prescription to a sick person. Dis tillers can sell their whiskey in other counties or ship to South Carolina. Let people organize, appoint committBos, secure funds and unite to enforce Prohi bition if you expect whiskey men to pay any respect to the law. the decalogue was written over three thousand years ago, but if the Aurora were to publish it some of our sub scribers would bo sure to. think they were aimed at delinquents and stop the paper, as J. L. M. did. Tho publisher and editor of a rural paper has to be very careful about proSibition laws and such things. Well, if two more subscribers "^o say stop the Aurora,” we can stand it—tho blackberry crop is "splendid and sugar is only five cents a pound. We will live on blackberry pie, peaches and apples for two months. , To the Atlantic Ocean. Tlio excursion to be ruM^ly lotli by W.

To see the ocean, sail on its bosom, to bath in it, to fish in it will be a green spot in one’s life who has never exper ienced those pleasures. After you get there your pleasure be*- ^ins. The steamer Sappho has been chartered for this occasion and will carry the crowd to Sullivan’s Island and back for twenty-five cents.—Free Lance. ‘ Stop 5Fy Paper.” A clever but mistaken church member V. and subscriber to Aurora, J. L. M. at / ^"^tooresboro, has angrily ordered “the •/'Aurora to stop” because “I don’tlike your Prohibition teachings.” Now the \ Hi y wont stop and is issued every ^ V P nearly 2200 subscribers, of this ■xlDei* fifty-nine go weekly ^ to Moores- ^■^^mands the editor’s ideas should With his dwarfed intellect and ^urora should photograph the pinions of its hundreds of sub- ^/cTs. For tho editor to assume the /ape of Proteus and hit every man’s would be more difficult t the lily or gild refined Tgets the Spanish proverb, iwatches are like their judgments. ;6 differs but each thinks his own ^on-ect. believes in whiskey; the Aurora be lieves in temperance. The editor prac- and preaches temperance and was never once under tho influence of whis key and never could see any wisdom in a healthy man taking a drink. He sees only folly and fanaticism in Prohibition and that we have had whiskey and snakes for several thousands of years, but so thought the slave owning South when a few thousand Republicans—a small Tninority at first asserted that dealing in liuman chattels was a sin and slavery m^st and shall be abolished. It was King Thought riding in his chariot and demanding that “slaves shall be free” and slowly the world imbibed this eman cipation idea. Shall it be thus with another great moral idea, Prohibition? The Bible says “Leadus notinto temp tation” yet this man believes that bar rooms should be licensed to sell that which debases the intellect, destroys all moral sensibilities and bring* woe to every land. We have tried barrooms for centuries and they bring only woe and desolation; Now let us try a changc—it can’t be worse. Let us give it a fair honest trial. Don’t you violate the law often and then with pious hands ex- laim “It will not prohibit.’.’ The Aurora wont stop. We received this week eight now subscribers. Personal Farasraphs. W. H. Ellis is in Ruthcrfordton this week. ci jC ti W r w ir • c Cf r ‘‘‘ L ca ^ h. V Miss Maggie Wray is visiting Miss Florence Doggett in Asheville. Miss Maggie Jones, of Greenville, S. C., here on a visit to her parents. >fr. and Mrs. James Mallard, of Rock Hill, S. C., are here on a visit and both are looking well. Mrs. J. W. Brown, the postmaster’s wife at King’s Mountain, is rapidly re gaining her health. Mr. John Miller, Jr., a teacher in the Deaf Mute Institute at Raleigh, is here on a visit to relatives. Tho urbane salesman, Capt. Johx A. McDonnld, now located at Henrietta,was home this week on a visit. Our oldest citizen rejoicing in eighty- two years, Willis Blanton, is quite un well. The infirmities of old age are upon him, but we trust he will recovcr. Had a pleasant call Saturday from one of King’s Mountain’s progressive citi zens, P. S. Baker, who anticipates lov/ prices for cotton and disaster to tho cot ton planters. Mr. and Mrs. George M. Webb are here visiting their parents. Mr. Webb will soon return to his grading contract on the South-bound R. and she will spend the summer here. ) We are ^lad to announce that one of Shelby’s intellectual young ladies. Miss Lina McDonald, is one of the Vice-Presi dents of the Teachers’ Assembly, elected last week at Morehead. Mr. Will Zimmerman, of Charlotte, was a guest of Cleveland Springs last week. He came here on a mission of love and to play a match game of base ball. Ho made “good hits.” Mrs. Gibson, of Gibsonville, N. C., was here on a week’s visit to her parents Rev. and Mrs. T. W. Guthrie. She re turned homo Tuesday, accompanied by her sister, Miss Hattie Guthrie. Mrs. J. S. Martin and Mrs. Bagley left Monday for Michigan where they expect to spend one month. Wo trust they will have a delightful time at their former homes, where it is so easy to keep cool near the lakes. Mrs. L. William Hoyle, who has been very ill for two weeks at her home near Waco, is, we are glad to note, rapidly im proving. There is no foundation for tho statement that two of our surgeons per formed on her^n operation. Mrs. Mary Adickes and her son, With ers Adickes, the latter a prominent mer chant of Yorkville, were here last week on a visit and were guests of the editor. They report the York Graded school as flourishing and an important factor in the prosperity of that place. j i^d as usual iii debt, is enough to make those interested sick, for Cotton will be below the costof production next season, if things do not. change. Last year crop and big mcreage mean eight cents, perhaps nearer sevesepiEof cotton. The abovo cotton conjectures are based uj..on tho big surplus and an average yield this year, yet tj?;fh Aurora does not saj it is a certainty. Crop disasters may come and help to elevate the price above quoted. But a half a crop this year—say 4,500,000 millions bales, plus two millions surplus, will keep cotton down nea,r eight cents, for the supply of six and half million bales will yearly be equal to tHe demand.. Go slow, farmer. - Some financiers-^fedict that cotton^ with an average cotton crop, will bring only seven cents—this means a crash to the Southern farmer, who is so foolish ^at £ome his own hog and ^ Afjre bome/supplies and Jess ern fai^anerj If you dannot raise your own supplies and cease giving on crops not then planted, you should sell out your farm to a betttr and wiser man and try some other vocation, versified farming on the intensive sys tem, i>lenty of clover and stock, more corn and less cotton with more economy will help us out of this disaster. Saiuplo Copies Free. The Sunny South, our great Southern family weekly, should bo taken in every household, The price is only $2 a year, and a present which is worth that amount or more is sent for every yearly subscrip tion. A sample copy will be sent free to any address. Write to J. H. Seals, fe Co., Atlanta, Ga. The Mooresboro Racket. This must close this personal contro versy. The Aurora does not approve or endorse Mr. Burrus’ letter and at first refused to publish it, but several have asked that he be allowed to answer .the Moorsboro post-master. All three are wrong and we will not print any more of such stuff. Wo suppose Mr. Gilbert denies the charges in this week’s letter, Shot Ht His Si6ter-in-r,aw. Bill Cabaniss, col., took three drinks Saturday night and goes home drunk. He soon starts a row with his wife and sister-in-law wJio were in the house, The door was locked and the quarrel terminated in Bill from the outside firing his pistol through the open window at his sister-in-law, who was near him and in the house. The ball grazed her ear and cut some wool from her forehead. The assailant fled. Brabham, the Murderer, to Uang; Today. The desperado, Brabham, who slew tho Italian Mocca at Charlotte last April? will be hanged today between 10 and 5 o'clock. ? He tried to escape by breaking his" chains and attacking Sheriff Smith next ivioruing. Brabham gave the jailer a se vere blow and would have killed Smith if a fellow-prisoner had not come to the rescue. The Charlf-ston Excursion, July I.*?. A quiet, decent and orderly crowd from Rutherford and Cleveland counties will join tho 3 C’s ^cursion to Charles ton on July 15. There will be no rowdy ism on the train and sice ladies needfear no disturbance or disaster. Many refined ladies in Rutherfordton, Shelby and oth er station.s anticipate a pleasant trip on this excursion. There will be a special car each for Rutherford and Cleveland ladies, (left at station the night before). If you wish to visit the seashore this month, join Capt. Ramseur’s excursion, faro for round trip from Rutherfordton and Shelby only $3.50. Hotel rates at Charleston very low—half price. ' You can for twenty-five cents enjoy a twenty mile magnificent sail on the river and oc^n to Sullivan’s Island and Fort Moultrio. V to Have a Dead Church. Subscribe for the Aurora. If you want to dry a cow up just milk her once a day instead of twice, and be so afraid, when you do milk her, that if you take too much away there will be none left for tho next time, that you only half do the work, and you will haye a dry cow as the result of sparing her. If you want to dry up the liberal impulses and principles of a church, just be afraid of asking that church for money,—Chris tian Standard. J. J. McMurry and Harrison Eskridge paid our town a visit today, Tho people of our quiet little town are jubilant over the expectation of a cotton factory in the iiear future. With only one day’s work wo have ten thousand dollars subscribed for that purpose. The subscription is headed by B. Frank Tur ner and other prominent men of Grover. Pfirties wishing to invest in a cotton^ mill cannot find a more beautiful situa tion or healthful locality than Grover. Surrounded by one of the best farming communities in the country, so keep the ball moving; let the people of Grover show their interest in this lirection and otliers will fall in Hne and help in this enterprise.

Hurrah for Dr; Gil bert. We had some of those big “$6.00 a gallon” papers at our box, too; but done no good. We are informed that the party who distributed those great buga boos, it being on Sunday too, lost while crossing Buffalo one or two $8.00 lap robes, and Lost his vote, too. Well, tho blackberries, tho blackber ries—plenty to eat and to spare. They are not like the Manna of old for we can pick a plenty on Friday to do all day Saturday, while we go fishing, and they don’t spoil j^ther. Well, it’s a good thing to have-plenty, if it is nothing but blackberries. Thanks to Bro. Schenck for the infor mation giron in your issue of June 25 on the local option law. Prof. R. J. Balfour, who took a visit to the flowery land this summer, has re turned to his nativity and is now ready a-gain to issue warrants-i^d'tr^ cases as usual, so we are informed. C. A.

CURED xg; SCROFULA It is that impurity in the blood,-whioh. ac cumulating ill the glandd of the neck, pro duces unsightly lumps or su'cUhif's; wliich causes painful running sores on tlio anus, legs, or feet; wliich developes ulcers in tho eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blmdiiess or deafness; wliich is tlie origin of pimples, pan- cerous growths, or the many other nianifest,' tions usually ascribed to “humors:” which fastening upon the lungs, causes consuniptior and death. Being the most ancient, it Is tin. most general of all diseases or affections, for very iav/ persons are entirely free from it. How Can It Be By taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which, by tho remarkable cures it has accomplished, often when other medicines ha'?^ failed, has proven itseirto bo a potent and peculiar ' medicine for tiiis disease. Some of tliese cures are really wonderful. If you suffer from scrofula, be sure to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla. My daughter Mary was afflicted with scrof ulous sore neck from the time she was 22months old till she became six years of age. Lumps formed In Iicr neck, and one of them after growing to the size of a pigeon’s egg, became running sore for over three years. We gave her Hood’s Sarsaparilla, when the lump and indications of scrofula entirely dis appeared, and now she seems to be a healthy child.” J. S. Caklilb, Nauright, N. J. N. B.
