Industrious Young Parmer Near Lat timore Struck by Bolt During Storm Wednesday. Emery Brandlett, who lived on the Billy Beam farm of Mr. Will Crow der near Lattimore, was instantly killed by lightning Wednesday after noon about 5 o’clock while on route from the field to his house. Mr. Brand lett was alone at the time the bolt struck him and was found a short time afterwards by his wife. Clothing in Shreds. The young farmer was in a field near his home topping corn when the storm.came up and wa, walking to wards the house to be with his wife and children when the bolt struck him. His wife becoming alarmed at his ab sence during the storm, which broke immediately after the fatal flash of lightning, started to search for him and found him only a short distance from the house. The bolt is thought to hare struck him on the head, and although he was burned from head to feet and his clothing was torn in shreds his skin was not broken. The storm was not extra heavy around Lattimore, but rain had fallen on the body before it was found. Brandlett, who was 24 years of age, is survived by his wife and • three small children. He was a native of Georgia, coming to Cleveland county last fall and has since that time farm ed for Mr. Crowder, who is one of the county’s most prominent farmers.

The funeral will be held at Latti more following the arrival of relatives from Commerce, Ga., a car having been sent there to bring relatives to the funeral. Wash Harlot? Imbibes and Fails to Get Away. Others Escape. Get Mi nature Outfit. Over on Kings Mountain, where the colonists walloped the “Redcoats,”’ the offir * s found a “firewater fac tory” Monday and as a result of the find Wash Harloe is under a $1,000 bond, and a perfectly good 50-(?allon copper still and seven or eight gallons of corn liquor, the “mean” kind, are in the custody of Sheriff Logan. Wash is under bond because he imbibed of the product made on the mountain and was unable to get away. The capture was made by Deputy Sheriff H. G. Ware and Officer Mc Bride Poston, of Kings Mountain. The Still was fired up and in the midst oi a “run” when the officers arrived upon the scene. Two others were there with Wash, but were not there long after the officers made their appearance. Wash 4 was inclined, until the spirits died out—which was sometime aftei he was placed in jail to take the mat ter lightly, but Tuesday he was not re luctant when John Wells, “went his bond.” The seven or eight gallons of liquor found at the still was in two stone jugs and one glass jug, the glass jug nestling in a bucket of freshly dis tilled liquor, the appearance and odor of which should be a better cure than Keeley. A quantity of beer was also on hand at the still. Harloe will be given a hearing Thursday week, it is said. Little Stove “Stillo.” Some years back when Mr. Vol stead’s act first began to be felt, there were those who could not do without their favorite beverage, and they did not want to buy "bootleg”—so “Stillo” was the outcome. “Stillo” by the way is a miniature still, of from one-half gallon to five gallon capacity and is listed in some of the mail order cata logs. Private homes with the wet tem perament purchased “Stillos” or stil lettes, and the family cook stoves found another burden in addition to the daily “three per.” This leads up to the fact that the miniature outfits are to be found in Shelby—at least, one has been found. ast week officers made a search of a vacant house on East Graham street in the Flat Rock settlement and a miniature three-gallon still, cap and worm, copper all, was found in a sack hidden in the vacated dwelling. It was a nice little outfit, skilfully made, and operated by—some people the officers would like to meet. The little outfit, a baby as compared with some of the South Mountain plants, is on exhibi tibn in the sheriff’s office. Typewriter and adding machine ribbons, carbon and adding machine papers.

Thompson’s new $75,000 lum ber and mill working plant will be gin operation next week, being the largest industry that lias been erected in Shelby this year and one of the most modern mill work plants in this section. The plant is located on \\ Washington street where he has a lot 105x525 feet secured some months ugo, after which work immediately began. Mr. Thompson is the principal owner, distributing a few shares to his cm polyc i. He is the oldest manufactur er of lumber in the county, having started when he was a boy 32 yeurs ago last March. Although th$ plant starts operation next week, it will be in a limited way, "tuning” up the machinery. In a few weeks the entire plant will be in full swing. The plant will manufacture ail kinds of mill work, going beyond the usual run of mill Work and making high class sand 'd and veneered builders supplies from high class kiln dried lumber. The main building is two stories, 67x120 feet, mill construction with a class A built up, gravel-top roof. The dry kiln is one of the most modern in the Piedmont section, being built of brick and 'having 10,260 feet of one inch pipe, the steam being furnished from the 1(X) horsepower high press ure boiler which is equipped with auto matic suction feed. This dry kiln built of brick has two tracks running into it with cars or trucks capable of handl ing 40,000 feet of lumber at one time. The system used is the Moore moist dry kiln which is protected by pat ents. Another building at the plant is for rough lumber storage and this meas ures 45x!)0 feet. It contains bins and a force feed rip saw. The intire plunt is arranged for a systematic move ment of lumber through the process of manufacture with the least posiiblc lost motion. When it arrives by freight it is sent down a conveyor to storage, thence through the dry kiln, thence to the rough lumoer storage, thence to the first floor of the mill, thence to the second floor where it comes out a finished poduct ready for delivery or the finisherf storage house 20x60 feet. Most of the machinery was built by Fay and Egan, one of the moat re liable manufacturers in the country. Everything is entirely new and ca pable of turning out hight quality ma terials.

GOOD OUTLOOK IT BOILING SPRINGS 248 Students Enrolling: with New Ones Coming: in Daily Plan Cen. tral Heating Plant. From the outlook at the opening of the well known Boiling: Springs high school prospects are very bright for the year, according to friends of the institution, and the opening: itself was very gratifying:. Already 248 students have been enrolled and new’ students are coming: daily. There has never been a more promising: student body, school officials say, and there is alike lihood that it will be the largest stu dent body in the history of the insti tution. At a meeting of the building com mittee held the first of this week it wns decided to install a central heat ing plant for the school to be put in use this winter, which is a forward step in making it one of the leading schools for the type in the state. The new and handsome Memorial build ing is being pushed to completion, and the main building has taken on new life through the work of painters. The reception by the religious or ganizations to the new' students held during the week was greatly enjoyed, and quite a number of returning form er students were included in the wel comed group. Chaper service Tuesday was conducted by Dr. T. C. Holland, a returned missionary from Cuba, who has been transferred to Porto Rico. His theme was “Work,” and many valuable suggestions were forcibly given. rroi. u.

FKEiHEfi CEIL: INIS 55.01 Sam Adams Says He “Tuk” Rheuma tism in Kings Mountain Lock-up and Sues the Town. From over at Kings Mountain comes a story of frozen feet and what a col ored man values good feet. Last De cember, while it was cold—if one can imagine such weather these days—ac cording to Officer McBride Poston, a colored man, Sam Adams, was ar rested and placed in the lock-up at Kings Mountain on a larceny charge. After a night in durance vile Adams was released, but as he looks at it, his feet have never been the same since, and now it is reported that through his lawyers he is suing the town of Kings Mountain for $6,000 to replan his damaged feet, which he avers were frozen in the cold^ cold cell, causing rheumatism to set in. Adams charges that his place of confinement was a “shivery,” bleak place and that the “home fires” were not kept burning. Just how he came out on the larceny charge is not re membered, but from the suit he evi dently means to emerge the victor. However, Kings Mountain officials do not seem to be worrying, according to Mr. Poston, and may have ‘something uptheir seleve” with which to meet the charge. It is said that Adams will be presented when the matter comes up by Hope end Bivens, of Kings Moun tain. Five Are Taking Pasteur Treatment Five people are taking the paateur treatment as a result of “Jiggs”, the hull dog owned by William McCord, the dog having been killed and its head sent to Raleigh where a positive re port was made that the dog had rab hies. Some time ago the dog bit Mr. W A. McCord, William McCord and the child of Mrs. Lyle of Rock Hill, S. C., who was visiting in the McCord home. The same afternoon the dog bit Walter Fanning, jr„ it al.,o pierced its teeth in little Riley McCord, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. A. McCord. None of its victims, however, were hurt to any extent, but the fear that bad results might follow, all five victims are tak ing the Pasteur treatment—21 doses of serum given by a hypodermic needle, one. dose a day.
