good bank is always helpful in attracting the attention of op
portunity. The amount of your bank balance is material, yet
not so much so as the fact that you have a balance, that you

able you to make satisfactory and profitable investments.

Although I live in an adjacent
county seventeen miles distant from
Albany, I went, not so much attract
ed by the carnival but more particu
larly to see an airship in operation
as a feature of the occasion, and to
gratify an abiding fondness for the
place of my boyhood days, for it was
here I landed fifty-seven years ago
when we emigrated from near Mon
roe. o
As I stood in Broad street looking
to the west, I marked a spot where
once stood a wooden store building.
and 1 thought upon the time when I
sat at my mother's feet in a buggy
as she drove up to that store and
hitched "Old Joe" to the china tree
in front: and now I see a paved
street, a wide sidewalk, three-story
brick store, the china tree is gone
and in its stead a heavy pole sup
porting many wires.
I thought upon that day and time
when we were an even twenty in
number who bore the name of Mc
Collum and came from Monroe, and
I said with prophet Kliiah. "And I.
even 1 only, am left"
There are none here now to re
prove or cjurisel me: I must walk
the way alone. And just in a men
tal way I was humming to myself
these lines:
"Tired, Oh yes, ao tired, dear,
Tha day haa been very Ionic;
It hat been to lung since morning tide.
And 1 have been ap Ion.
Tired, Oh yea, ao tired, dear,
rr i i 1 i
l ne any naa own very lonK,
The shadowy gloaming draweth near,
'Til time for an evening aong."
Just then a lady's voice from the
street called out: "Mr. McCollum'
what are you looking at? What do
you see?" I told her, more than 1
could ever undertake to tell her.
O O 0
"Yonder is Cnclo Sandy1" came
from across the street, and soon 1
was receiving many handshakes
Dinner was served under a large
tent where the corn was exhibited
and the prizes awarded, and here I
we made to feel like I was at a pri
vale picnic with my own family:
and so the duy passed with me al
most as if 1 had been wafted on the
breeze.
My only view of the airship was
skyward. It appeared in shape like
an immense cigar, perhaps eighteen
feet in length. I ndermatb a canoe
shaped construction the full length
of the cigar, on the rear end a car
penter tool chest, on the front end
a whirling device which reminded
me of the flutter mills we made from
the corn stalks when we played in
the branch, except this flutter mill
was revolving crosswise the branch
and appeared about eighteen inches
in diameter. One man alone occu
pied the car and stood two-thirds the
length back from the front and op
erated some small rods or cable,
and he cut many antic in the air
that would have done credit to a
black martin, or a chicken hawk on
hi downward swoop for hia prey. I
left him in his flight and came home
dead in love with the level land and
glad I could walk on it.

rushed with him through the flames
that tilled bis room. lie fell with
his unconscious burden and both
sank through the floor to death.
What makes the tragedy unusa
ally pathetic was the fact that the
boy was his grandfather's idol. The
two were inseparable and often slept
together, last night the boy wen
to bis grandfather's house as usual
and after a happy evening the two
retired.
The next the family heard of them
was early today when, from behind
the smoke and flames that enveloped
the house, the boy screamed: "Oh,
grandpa, get me out of here quirk.
I'm burning to death."
"Yes, son, don't be afraid; grand
pa will take you out," was the reply.
Then both went down to their death.
The others of the family sleeping
in the house at the time of the tire,
Mrs. DeArmond, her daughter. Airs.
Chirk, and a maid, Nettie Boles, es
caped.
Messages of condolence from all
parts of the country were received
by the leArmonds this afternoon.
James IteArmond, editor of the
Bates County Iemocrat, son of the
Congressman and father of the boy
who burned to death, tried to rush
into the burning house to save them
but was prevented by others who
knew his sacrifice would be in vain
The I'eArmond home was a large
two-story frame structure set well
back from the street. On two sides
of the house, eual with the second
floor, four rooms or outdoor sleeping
apartments had been constructed,
and at the time the fire broke out
the occupants of the house occupied
these rooms.
The financial loss is placed at
$20,000, and included one of the
bent libraries in the State.
llosides James A. leArmond, the
hods of the dead Congressman are
Kdward II., an instructor at West
Point, and Lieutenant Geo. W. De
Armond, now serving with the army
in the Philippines. Mi's. Clark is a
daughter.
Congressman IeArniond and his
little grandson will have a double
funeral on Friday. Burial will be
in the Oak Hill cemetery at Butler.
Messages of condolence 'were re
ceived today from Speaker Joseph
(i. Cannon and from President Taft.
The latter sent the following me
sane to Mrs. DeArmond:
"Mrs. Taft and I are shocked to
hiar the dreadful news. Your hus
band ani 1 were very intimate. I
valued bis friendship most highly,
lie was an honest, able servant of the
public and a patriot. My heart goes
out to you in your loss,"
Suits to Compel Delivery of Cotton
Sold in the Spring.
Wnlnhiru MrMFnirt r tnd InlrUlirttU'rr.
Alexander Sprunt & Sons of Wil
mington have instituted suit in the
I'nited States Circuit court at Char
leston, 8. C, against Ilunt-Streater
Company, a concern doing business
at Chesterfield, S. C , to compel the
payment of f 6,1 111 Mi, the difference
in the price of 300 bales of cotton
sold the Wilmington firm last spring
at 10 cents and the price of the cot
ton at the time it was to have been
delivered.
Alexander Sprunt & Sons bought
many thousands of bales of cotton,
in both North and South Carolina,
last spring for 10 cents to be deliv
ered this fall, and we notice from the
papers that delivery in several in
stances bas been refused. Their pur
chases in Anson amounted to be
tween 1,100 and 1,200 bales. Of
this amount 140 bales were bought
in Wadesboro, 22 ) bale in Lilea
ville and the balance in Morveo. All
this cotton, we are glad to say, has
been delivered, though it is possible
'the merchants through whom the
sa'ee were made may lose small
amounts.
As we understand the matter, nei
ther the merchants through whom
the sales were made nor the Sprunts
themselves get the advantage of the
rise in price. The Sprunts sold the
cotton in Liverpool, receiving only a
small commission for their services
therefore the huglish spinners who
purchased it were the camera

Ten Doctors
Said He Would Die
"In 1903 we wrote you regard
ing my lmhand, who was suf
fering from heart trouble. He
was superanuatcd by the North
Georgian Conference. Ten doc
tors at different times said he
would die. You advised Dr.
Miles' Heart Remedy and Re
storative Nervine; we did as
advised, and improvement wa
apparent from the very first. He
recovered and the Conference in
lox4 gave him a charge, lie
never felt better, although he
has very heavy work and doe
a great deal of camp meeting
work. I am so glad we took
your advice and gave him the
medicine, and feel that I ought
to let you know of the wonder
ful good results from its use."
MRS. T. S. EDWARDS,
Milncr, Ga.
This proves what Dr. Miles'
Heart Remedy will do. Get a
bottle from your druggist and
take it according to directions.
It dors not matter whether your
heart is merely weak, or you
have organic trouble, if it does
not benefit you take the empty
bottle to your Urug'isi ana g
your money back.
Doing Big Business
Wc make it a point to handle the stock and vehicles
that people want, and give prices that they can afl'ord to
pay, therefore our business has grown rapidly and is
still growing every day.
LESS THAN A YEAR A(U).
or to be exact, January 5, 1909, wc began business in
Monroe, and the people have learned that wc sell stock,
buggies and wagons and harness for a small profit. At
the outset wc adopted the motto,
"Sell Cheap and Thereby Sell a Heap."
and wc have lived up to it so well that the people have
learned where they can buy to best advantage. Wc sell
out, go get more, sell quick, cut out feed bills, and give
our customers the advantage.
EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT
it's cheaper to keep things moving, and no where can
this be done better than in the livery business. When
you buy from us you know you arc getting the very best
figure such good stock can be bought for anywhere else.
WE HAVE FOR SALE
any kind of snappy, iip-to-date buggy or surry, harness,
wagons, one or two horse, at smaller profit than anybody.
Be on the spot this week and see them.
