The court at Chester has been engaged this week in the trial of the 1 case of Walter G. Cureton, administrator, vs the Lancaster & Chester Railway Company. The plaintiff is suing for damages growing out of the death of his brother, Mr. Will A. Cureton, resulting from fatal wounds received at the Hooper's creek wreck on the L. & C. Railway on July 30, 1913. As we go to press the case is not yet finished. Colonel Springs and a number of other Lancastrians have been in Chester for. the trial during the past week.

Two Fires Last Night Last night about midnight fire was discovered in the building in the Springs block occupied by the Palace Market and the O. K. Barber Shop. It is supposed that too much gasoline escaped and overflower into the burner, causing flames to drop to the floor, which was burned for about a foot. Bat for the timely arrival of Mr. C. B. Cobb, who first reached the plnce and succeeded at ( once in extinguishing me names, the flro might have been a very' aerlons one but Mr. Cobb dis-1 covered and put It out bo soon. Another fire alarm at the early' hour of six tnla morning awakened ( many of our citizens, who found that the oil house near the L. & ! C. depot was In flames. The fire department responded quickly and [ did Its best to save the building but the fire had gained such headway , before It was discovered that the building was practically destroyed, j 1 A Correotlo*. In our description of the Tom ! Thumb wedding In our last issue, the name of one of the maids of 1 honor appeared as Miss Elizabeth i l>aney when It should have been i Miss Elisabeth L<azenby. This was | merely a typographical error but ' one which we take pleasure In cor renting. Little Mies Laney was mentioned among the bridesmaids and Miss Lasenby, the winsome daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Lazenby, was a lovely maid of honor, whose presence added much to the attractiveness of the wedding. Death of William Polston. Mr. William Polston, aged 38, passed away at his home In the mill village early Tuesday morning and the remains were laid to rest in Weetslde cemetery Tuesday at 4 p. m, after funeral services conducted by Rev.
