Fire last nip it at 8:15 broke out in Hie residence of Mr. Louis Mulll nax on Earle street and did damage to the furniture and hulloing amount ing to about $.">00. It was understooj last night that thc loss wan covered by insurance. The building was the property of the estate of R. M. Dur rlss. The fire had made considera ble headwuy before It was ever dis covered, owing to the fact that Mr. and Mrs. Mullina* and family were not at ?>ome. A passerby noticed the smoke and flames and gatfe the alarm. Mr. H. A. Iludgcns was the first ona to reach the burning building and he stated that the fire started in the rea1' of the building on the lower floor-. When he saw it it had burned up into the second floor and waa mak ing good headway. Tte fite department made a quick run to tho scene and in a very short time had- two streams playing on it. The pressure of the water seemed to be good and in a few minutes the firemen had the flames under COT troll. Owing to the construction or the building, tho fire in the loof was hard to get at and although soon un der control, it took rat' er a long time to completely distinguish the blaze. Owing to the early hour of the fire, and its proximity to the center of town, quite a large crowd gathered to watch thc blaze. Better be safe than sorry-Willett P. Sloan, insurance.

Dear Mr. Editor: My Judgment ia against taking Issues with the editor, and I would like to shirk the respon sibility of criticising un editorial. I cannot let your editorial "The Livable Town" paas uudcr tile eyes of my people, and in tho absence of the city pastors, their people, without voicing a protest. I am not at tills time arguing the question of "amvse men ta." No question has given tho church more concern and I aseurc ? you no question has received a larger place in our redding and thinking. You editorially endorse the modern dance and endorse it as a city build en-. The church ie unanimously against your position. To teach our people that their lead ers and preachers and law-makors are puritanical and narrow, and to exhort them to break faith with their church ls presumptions. I rnii your attesiloa io thc fact that every church in your city is op posed to the modern dance which you say "should be encouraged." "Encourage the young people in all the harm), SB amusements of the day" you say, and you include modern dancing. I have not anywhere heard advice ..more insidious or dangerous. In exhorting our people to "be broad and liberal" and to break with us, Mr. Editor, you are not cooperating with the church influence of thin city. It would have been better for tho peace and intluence of our "pur itanical" motheis and fathers and the churches, of our city if your edi torial on the "Livable Town" had not been written. Groat cities make dance halls, red light districts, gambling hells but' these things do not make great cities. Very few people who have not al ready gone wrong leave our splendid towns to "play" dn the cities. Thoy follow the call of commercial neces sity. The "puritanical" small towns and country districts furnish the sav ing clements in all cities. Destroy the "narrowness of puritanism" in town and country and our civilization will smash. I know of no small town in our State made great by dance halls, etc., I know of several blighted by its "broad" leadgjs. God made one city in South Carolina to be great and it went to social rot instead. This insidious thing of "amuse ment" has overthrown BO many civi lizations of thc past that the church of the present lias decided to stay on tlie job of being "narrow." J. W. Speake. Thc Intelligencer would not argue the question of "amusements." For it realizes in the outset that the sub ject i? too broad and the angles from which it is viewed are too many. It is similar to an argument on church creeds, a subject on which the world will ".ever get together and one that profite nothing by argument. We beg to call attention, however, to the fact that the editorial to which the Rev. Mr. Speake has reforenco spoke of tho "harmless" amusements collectively, referring j to dancing merely as ono form, and passively at that. He takes Issue with us on only the one form of amusement-doning -and in doing so niteconstrues our use of tho term "modern" dancing. Tho adjective was not u&2d in the sense of "up-to*datc" or "up-to-tho min?to"-which would have meant thc exhibitions known as tho "bunny hug," "grizzly glide," "turkey trot," etc. i.ml seen only in thc pub?c ?anee bull or resorts of questionable char acter-but was intended to denote tho d|nce which ls commonly known as tie "round" dance and tho waltz. Wo Bay this much merely to clear up what was not very clear in tho edi torial -in question. j/ Aft wo stated in the outset, 1 wa would not argue the question of "amusements." Neither will wo arguo the question of the propriety of ono form of amusement-dancing-tho ene whfch the Rev. Mr. Speako taken issue with us on. For that ls another subject on which opinion ls hopeless ly divided. Were we to attempt to 'debate the question of amusements, lt would not only take in the subject dancing, but would include that of the motion pic ture theatre, the vaudeville show, tho musical comedy show, the modern theatre, automobile Joy-riding, and a host ot others. It is too big a sub ject. These things are among us, and probably always will be. The proper course- to pursue. It ap pears to us, la not to attempt to abolish amusements, which aro harm less per se, but to regulate them when they get beyond the bounds ot propriety.
