Eight or Ten Persons Lose Their Lives and Property Loss Estimated at One Million Dollars. The State, 29th. The hurricane, born in the Atlantic ocean somewhere off the coast of Georgia or South Carolina, yesterdaypassed over Charleston, leaving a trail of damage in its wake. Besides the heavy property loss reported or estimated, eight or ten persons are believed to have been killed. The disturbance, after lasting 20 liour9 in Charleston, daring which the wind attained a velocity of 94 miles an hour, moved toward the west, and now, according to the reports of the weather bureau, has gone well inland, passing between Columbia and Augusta, thus 1 removing any further danger. Residents on Sullivan's Island suffered less I than was expected, the last reports be- J ing thatjthe wind had subsided and that there had been no injury to islan 1 ders. The damage suffered was shared by ^ the cro?s and by property in Cnarle9ton, largely along the waterfront. < Beautortis still cur, off from comma- ] nieatioh, a9 is Georgetown, but no , fears are felt for the latter town.

(BY CYRUS L. SHEALY.) A marriage of more than local interest was that of Miss Martha Hendrix Oaughman and Mr. D. R. Haltiwanger, solemnized at 7 o'clock Thursday evening, at the lovely country home of the bride, five miles^north of Lexington. The ceremony was performed in the spacious parlor, which was tastefully decorated in green and white?thf great ferns circling and covering the huge mantle, with white roses showing everywhere. As the odhtracting parties entered, by way of the long hall, which^ was filled with pink and green, MLs May Lois Boozer played the ever beautiful and appropriate wedding march of Mendelssohn. The Rev. P. D. Risinger, p, class-mate of the groom, was the officiating minister, and used the beautiful and impressive ceremony of j the Lutheran church. The bride was charmingly attired in white silk Marquesette over white liberty satin, trimmed with real baby Irish lace and folds of satin: wearing a wreath of real orange blossoms in tier hair, and carrying a shower boil}uet of bride's roses and lillies 1 of the ralley. At the close of the ceremony Mrs. J. rally Harth, of Columbia, a cousin of ! She bride, stood at the door and presented each guest with a souvenir aackage containing a piece of wedding 3ake, daintily done in green and white ribbon with a wedding bell attached, rhe only invited guests were the close relatives and a few intimate friends. Mrs. Haltiwanger, the only daughter of County Commissioner James Oaughman, is a young woman with many charms, and is deservedly popalar among a Jarge circle of friends. Mr. Haltiwanger is the assistant editor of the Lexington Dispatch, and correspondent of The Columbia State, The Charleston News and Courier, and The Augusta Chronicle. He en joys the reputation of being or/e of the very best newspaper men in the State, and is a strong advocate and a staunch and fearless fighter for civic improvements and clean government. ? ??

BAKKOJN || 'J Ask Any Business Man YOU have been told before te "Start a bank account," and have perhaps been just a little indifferent because the bank itself suggested it. Next time you talk to a successful business ' man ask him if you should start a bank account. Ask the next ten you see. Ninety-nine out of one hundred will tell you that it is absolutely the first thing for you to do. These men base their advice on experience-not on theory. They learned early the value of a bank connection. When you have profited by the preponderance of advioe which you will receive, we should like to show you why this bank should have your business.
