GAKTKK SXAKK A SUICIDE.
Hangover Was More than Little Itepi
il(> Could Beat*.
One of the most remarkable incidents
that has happened at Green lak(.
(siuce .'\ugusi, iz, isi i, wnen, n win
H?e remembered, the famous man-eating
minnow appeared >'i these waters
happened thc other day. Little Donald
Dwiggins, young son of Claire Dwiggins,
the eartootiist, has a little store
near his father's camp 011 Canada
. lake. He sells lemonade for pins, you
f know.
Well, in sotne way Donald found
a bottle a quarter filled with hootch.
He thought it would be nice to place
that on sale, too, though he had no
idea what it might be. He put it 011
the counter. The sun struck it and
the cork popped. Some of the liquid
escaped. There was an odor.
Soon afterward a little garter snake
came bumping up. He or she sniffed
the air and then made for the bottle.
It then drank that portion of the
liquid which had fizzed over, following
which it formed a hoop by seizing
its head with its tail, no, tail
with its teeth, and rolled around the
counter three times.
It was the little fellow's own peculiar
way of shouting "Whoops!"
And then if it didn't climb up the
bottle and go inside, drinking copir
^ oug draughts of the portion. In a
while if emerged from the bottle, did
a snake dance to a small sapling and
twisted itself around that sapling- Kb
expression seemed to say so plainly:
"Whoopee! Give me a sock, I'm a
garter!"
Of course it wasn't a garter at all;
it was meerely a garter snake. Then
it looked angrily around as if looking
for some foe. It's expression now
seemed to say:: "Bring me St. Patrick!
What I care?"
Then the sad part came. The poor
thing finally grew very morose and
placed its tail on its stomach in a
mournful way. It looked at Donald
Dwiggins in a way that seemed to
plead for a bromo selter. None being
forthcoming it wabbled slowly to the
dock, below which coursed the cooling
water.
It crept dismally to the edge and
flopped over.
Despite the fact that garter snakes
can swim like everything it sank immediately
and has not been seen
since.
o
, TOBACCO PRICES HOLDING
VP WELL.
The frown which overspread the
farmer's face when the market first
opened has turned to a smile. With
J f ltQceirtrr r\ f -1 -- 4U " *
V.J. cavn u?y nig price or
tobacco improves and the better
grades are selling at a pood profit.
Prices on the Dillon market are holding
np well and the average is as
high as that of any market in the
state. All the big tobacco companies
are represented on the Dillon market
and they are bidding against each
other for the better grades. The rains
of the past few days have seriously
interferred with the marketing of the
crop and it is reported from some
sections of the county that tobacco
has suffered some damage. The most
on the crop, however, has been taken
d'rcni the fields and if the rains should
vcntinue they cannot do thp crop
much more damage. With the imwprovement
>n the prices there has
rbfeen a slight improvement in business
conditions. There was a good
crowd in town last Saturday and the
merchants were busy all during the
day. In less than 30 days new cotton
will begin to eome on the market and
the fall season will open in full
UIclSl. I

THE DILLON HER;

"The tid*' of travel is flowing to-!
ward the beach stronger than ever :
ih.is season," remarked I)r. Craig to a
Herald man Sunday morning. "1 was
returning front an early call down on
the beach road this morning and '
must have met at least r>?> autotnojbiles
headed toward Myrtle Reach,
Murrell's Inlet and other seashore re- ,
sorts. They were getting an early !
skirt and many of the pleasure seek-j
e?sr will return some time during the
ttight while others will remain over
for several days."
lload development and the autonio- <
bile have diverted Pee Dee pleasure
seeket's to the seashore resorts for;
tiie week end. Before the roads in
Marion and Horry were improved it
was an all day journey, but now ?
person can leave home early in the
morning and set to the beach in timej
for a late breakfast. Many cars make'
the trip from Dillon to Myrtle Beach!
or Murrel's Inlet in less than four
hours. High railroad rates have also I.
helped to turn the mountain travelj'
toward the beach and it is likely that
beach resorts will grow in popularity
with week end pleasure seekers.

Beautiful in its simplicity was the !
wedding of Misg Emma Carmlchael
and Raymond Stevens, which was i
solemnized in the Presbyterian church I
Wednesday evening, July 27th. at 1
8 o'clock. The impressive ring cere-: 1
mony was performed by the Rev. J.ji
Sam Garner the bride's pastor and 1
was witnessed by a large assemblage 1
of the friends of the young couplejs
and of their families. The church [ l
lenfis itself to decoration of the sim-n
plest order and with quantities of!'
ferns, pinos, candles and yellow it
tinnas was a lovely setting l'orj
the nuptial scene. 1
Previous to the ceremony a beau-jl
itiful musical nroirram was rendered 1
by Miss Lola Edwards of Mullins. As 1
Miss Edwards sounded the first ]
st'ains of the wedding march from
Lc-hengrin, the ushers, Leroy M. i
! Rogers and Gorce D. Carmichael, en- i
I tered and took their place8 on eith-: 1
I r side of the rostrum.
Next came the bridesmaids, who
wore lovely dresses in rainbow shades
of organdy with hats to match, carrying
Shepherd's crooks. They entered
as follows: Miss Laura Stevens,j
sister of the groom, in blue, with/
(Carson Carmichael; Miss Suc Stev-/
ens, in white with, Lawton Carmich- I
,ael; Miss Sadie Moore, in Orchid, with '
i Eugene Carmichael; Miss Ida' May}
j Rogers, in rose, with Autrey Car- :
, michael; Miss Margie Croxton of <
(Kershaw, in green, with Roy Car(michael.
Then came little Misses <
Francis Moore in airy pink organdy <
and Jimmie Rogers in dainty blue
; organdy, who threw open the white <
(gates.. Then entered the dame of hon-i
01 Mrs. Lucy M. Rogers, cousin of <
tb, bride, wearing a beautiful gown <
of orchid taffeta with hat to match,
carrying an arm bouquer of orchid 1
j gladioli. The maid of honor, Miss
(Thelma Rogers, neice or the bride.:!
wore n dainty frock of pink inaline
over satin, with a large picture hat
of silk lace with pink plume. Her <
flowers were pink gladioli. The
flower girls little Misses Marv Wat- ;
sot: Schofield and Janie Pierct. dressed
in yellow and green organdy with ;
jmoline bows came down tb,. aisle
scattering rose petals from their has- i
kets. Tlie littl,. ring bearer Katherine ,
Sue Moore was a veritable fairy in a
| fluffy dress of white organdy, and j
icarried the ring in -the heart of a <
j rose. She preceded the bride, who ]
icame in leaning on the arm of her (
brother, Ottie Carmichael, and was ,
met at the altar by the bride-groom
attended by his brother Boyd Stev'
ens. "Trammedi" was softly played
!during the ceremony. The bridal
1 party left the church in reverse or- ;
i der to the strains of Mendelsshons ]
'wedding march. ,
{ The bride was never prettier than ,
; on this occasion. She wore a hand!
seme suit of blue trieotine with ac- |
cessories that beautifully harmoniz- i
|ed, and carried a shower bouquet of.|
bride's roses. She is the only daugh- .
Iter of Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Carmich'
ue! and is a young woman of gra- ,
cious manner and charming personal- <
ity. Her many friends regret that (
rfhe is to live in another community.!,
The bridegroom is the youngest j
son of Mr. and Mrs. Stcvon S(pvph? .
of the Bermuda section of this coun-']
ty and is a young man of sterling!
worth.

\L1?, DILLON, SO IT II CAROLINA)
DILLON ,\ NOISY TOWN.
"There was an article in the paper
seme weeks ago." said Mr. K. S.
Ileatty, "that had something to -a'
about Dillon as -i noisy town, am!
whoever wrote the article was n?i
far wrong. Kverybody will admit
iliat the ino s ant bio v. :nu* of trail-,
factory and mill whisth-s is a inii
hat nobody it seems wants i.
steps to remedy the situation. .\n<i
iinother thing that should be look '
into is tin- rapid running of atitomo
hues all over town at all hours ol tinnight.
A parly ot joy riders t mostly
folks who can afford to sleep till day
can keep a whole town awake all
11 it;lit. Other towns do not tolerate
these things -and 1 can't understand
why they are tolerated in Dillon."
i nerc id a whole of truth in what
Mr. Beatty has to say aim the thints
he complains of will bear investiguting.
The home folks are used to Dil
Ion's noises and do not notice thetn.
but it is the stranger who has n
night's rest broken by unnecessary
noises tltat suffers. It has a bad effect
and should be stopped. Some months
ago a young man from New York arrived
in Dillon on the late afternoon
train and spent the night at a local
hotel. He had business at the Herald
rdfice and after introducing himself
the first thing he <1 id was to register
n complaint against Dillon as a
ricisy town. His eyes were red and
heavy and one could tell at a glance
that he had spent a bad night. "Believe
me," said the young man, "you
have the noisiest town in America. I
have a room right on Broadway audi
It is a graveyard compared to what
[ tried to sleep through last night.
[ believe you people have all the
lutomobiles in the world and ure particularly
fond of running them at
tight. And then the trains and the
way they have of blowing their
whistles!
When the trains quit running and
blowing I fell off into a light slumber
and was rudely awakened by the,
loud and prolonged blowing of
whistles. When you folks go up to
New York you must find it tame,
rake it from me. even if your town
is not as large as a good sized block
in New York it has us beat all hollow
in the noise game."
The .Marlboro Mystery.
i
Pee Dee Advocate.
The Advocate culled attention last
week to tracks about IS inches Ions
apparently made by a bare human
Toot in East Bennettsville. Last
week's Hamlet Messenger said:
Imprints of a human foot in the
soft soil of a cotton imtch on a vacant
lot in Laurinburg Friday morning
of last week were the cause of
considerable speculation and attracted
the attention of many people, says
the Laurinburg Exchange. A number
>f reliable citizens testify that they
saw with their own eyes these tracks
t>:' footprints, which measured
[>r 1inches in length and 7 inches
iti width. They say they could have
lieen made by nothing but the human
toot or a perfect imitation of it. and :
some are inclined to believe the footprints
genuine. It is said th,. same
iracks were seen early in the week at
jibson and later at Wagratn. The footprint
lias perfect outline, heel, instep,
iind five toes. Front Gibson, a wild
report conies that a colored man
saw a giant of a man near his home
one night recently, thut the giant casually
picked up a wash pot and burled
it some distance. This report, like
many others, is met-,, vaporing* of tin
irtificiul atmosphere, hut tin' sight
jf the footprints in the cotton field I
lu rt. is fact. Some think it a hoax

far as I know I never will be," de-j
"lared Cole L. Illease, former gov-j

Filbert picnic. This statement apparently
disposes of the rumors that !
lie was planning a political eome-'i

Standing on thc same platform!

with Germany four years ago and
exorcised the selected draft system,'

he had nothing to retract or modify.
