I hesitate to draw the line Between the two-where G<'d has n??t.' Another Jolt to Our Patience. We had just begun to feel in a congratulatory mood toward ourselves, the National Government, the people of these United States and Washington over what seemed a week ago to be a happy culmination of the differences arising over the sinking of the Lusitania, between the Imperial German Government and that of the United States when the news of the destruction of the Hesperian by being torpedoed without warning is broadcasted tp*create further unfriendly feelings and dip-1 lomatic correspondence between the two nations and turns the damper on our ameliorated spirit toward Germany. The Arabic incident, it is claimed, was pulled off by a "square head" submarine commander in disobedience of his Majesty's orders. A similar excuse will doubtless be set up by the German Government when it learns that the Hesperian ?^ ? ' ' ? ? J .vUtiAkltT nf ??iinl/ Kir O f A*?_ ditions. I The South stands shamed by the; action of the few of the Leo Frank1 i mob, just as the North stood shamed aH-inn of the Illinois mob, and by the action of yet another Illinois mob, which sought to lynch a murderer but a few days ago. We condemn mob law wherever it exists, but we do like to see fair play on the part of the public press. "Holier Than Thou" editors do more harm than good. Are you making preparations for an exhibit at the Williamsburg fair next month? If not, why not? ALONG THE MAIL ROUTE. Items of Interest Gathered 'Twlxt Rbems and Rome. Rhems, September 6:?Mr Oscar Outlaw, chief engineer of the steamer "Brunswick," and Miss Blanche Belle Baxley, an accomplished young hidy of the Pee Dee section, were happily united in marriage last Sunday evening at 8 o'clock at Good Hope church. The young couple will make their future home at Rhcms. We srladlv welcome them to our midst, and join their many friends in wishing them much happiness and a long and prosperous life. The stork visited at the home of Mr and Mrs J W Waldron a few days ago and presented them a daughter, of which they are very proud. Mrs L B Johnson and liltle son, Alvin, and Miss Iva Eaddy have returned from a very pleasant outing in the mountains of North Carolina. Mr and Mrs A B Edwards, Miss Maggie Keels, and Mr George E Grier spent last week-end pleasantly at Myrtle Beach. Mr Miles Bellune, the efficient Supervisor of Georgetown coynty, was noted in this vicinity recently, looking over the roads in this section. We will add here, that he is having some real good mending and shrubbing done on Route 1. Mr and Mrs Van I) Harper spent the week-enu very pleasantly in Charleston and the Isle of Palms. Mrs Geo M Thomas ana children spent several days last week in the "Rural Hall" section on Black river, at t"he homes of her sisters, Mesdames P C McClary and A 0 Holliday. Mr Jno B McElveen, the substitute carrier on Route 1, has returned to his home at Cades to attend the 1915-16 session of the Cades High school. Mr G G Broadway, an efficient salesman for Messrs ? Khem & sons, spent several days last week very pleasantly with his parents at Sumter, and friends in Columbia and other places. Mr Van Anderson has resigned his position as salesman for Messrs F Rhem & Sons at Morrisville and has accepted a position as assistant cashier of the Bank of Andrews. Mrs James Howell and children have returned to their home here, after a long and pleasant visit to Mrs Howell's parents at Andrews. The large school bell at Union rang Monday morning at 9 o'clock, thereby giving notice that the machinery of the Union High school was ready to be set in motion for the 1915-16 session. A full corps of teachers were at their post and the large attendance of pupils at the opening is proof of the educational interest manifested in this section. The familiar adage, "Play days are over and by the rule, Mary must go again off to school," could plainly be seen on the faces of the little "tots" as they were marching on their way to school. Hon J W Doar, Superintendent of Education of Georgetown county, made the opening: aaaress. Mr John P Eaddy, of the Leo vicinity, visited relatives and friends here a few days last week. Mr and Mrs R L McElveen of Cades spent a few pleasant days thi3 week at the home of their son, Mr B W McElveen. B W M. Biliousness and Constipation. It is certainly surprising that any woman will endure the miserable feeelings caused by biliousness and constipation, when relief is so easily had and at so little expense. Mrs Chas Peck, Gates, N Y, writes: "About a year ago I used two bottles of Chamberlains Tablets and they cured me of biliousness and constipation." Obtainable everywhere. John H Earle, former Railroad Commissioner and son of the late United States Senator Joseph II Earle, died Friday morning as a result of a pistol wound in his head. Wednesday evening Mr Earle shot himself while seated at his office desk in Greenville. He was 43 years of age, and a member of one of the most prominent families of the State.

A few weeks ago a Georgia mob lynched Leo Frank, and the Chicago j Tribune immediately jumps to the conclusion and asserts that the Southern people are uneducated, I unrefined and a bunch of bad eggs generally. 1 But fortunately the Tribune speaks only for the Tribune, and not for, the Northern people as a class.

Promising Yonng Man Drowned Near Scranton. Scranton, September 7:?Thoma3 M Creecy, age 18, of this town and son of the late Major Thomas M Creecy, was drowned at 3:80 yesterday afternoon at Cockfield's Landing on Lynch's river. The body was found about two hours later and brought to his home, where Coroner Gun empanelled a jury and held an inquest. The jury found a a verdict in accordance with the above statement. The young men had organized a swimming club and this point on the river was popular with a large number. The youth was bathing with three others when he got into a strong current The other members of the party made desperate, but vain, efforts to effect his rescue. When the body was brought ashore a physician was present, but efforts : at resuscitation proved futile. Interment was made at the Methodist cemetery here at 11 o'clock Tuesday. Rev J B Prosser conducted the funeral services, assisted by Rev Mr Taylor of Darlington, pastor of the Free Will Baptist church. ; A large crowd paid its last respects to the deceased, which attested to the esteem in which he was held. 1 The floral decorations were profuse. Mr Creecy was a young man of exceptional qualities, and had a 1 bright and promising future. He ' was a member of the local Y P B of W C T U and also a member of the Missionary Baptist Sunday-school. 1 The other members of the class ' were the pall bearers. His sudden and untimely death is the cause of genuine sorrow among - hio h/^cf nf frif>nr?c His mother. sister anu a large circle of family con-, nections survive to mourn his loss. | The grief stricken ones have the 1 sincere sympathy of the entire community. I M G. Mr Creecy was a nephew of Mr Olin Welch, of this place, who, upon i receipt of the sad news of the ' drowning, left for Scranton Monday afternoon. Health and Happiness Depend Upon , Your Liver. That sluggish liver with its slugi gish flow of bile is what makes the world look so dark at times.
