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. '
The dead are: Elbert R. Smith, a 1
salesman for Lorick & Lowrance, Co- <
lnmbia; Motorman Cutter, Charleston;
A. J. Ooburn, Southern Railway
engineer: Ida Robinson. Charleston:
Rosa Robinson, Charleston; Eva My '
era* Charleston; Tom Dooley, Charles- i
ton. ?
Missing: Cassidy family, caretakers
at Wapoo Phosphate works. -1
Injured: Number unknown; proba- <
bly as many as 20. ]
Property loss: Estimated at $1,000,- ,
000.
?he damage at Savannah was also J
great; but no lives were lo9t. All telephone
and telegraph connections were j
cut off, and it is impossible to get full
particulars.

Quiet Wedding.
(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.

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.
