Qhester Reporter,. June 23:. Of cordial
interest to a wide circle of friends
throughout the state was the rnarriage
of Miss Rebecca Hafner and Mr. Edgar
Lee Royal, of North Carolina,
which occured yesterday morning at
nine o'clock at the attractive home -of
the .b.ride's .father,; Mr. H. W. Hafner,
on .York street....... Four .cases of. typhoidfever
that,, were reported today
to, the -Health Department are the' result,
: Dr- Boldridge is . confident, of
drinking spring or well, water that is
contaminated. During the' flurry last
iweek on account pf top. much chlorine
in the .city. water a great many persons
disregarded .the. warning "of the1
health authorities; and used 'spring
or well water very freely. One case'
is in the home of Mr. C. Y. Young', and'
the three others are children of Mr.
Vro P T. Plommor Thp Hpnlth
Department urges the public to refrain,
absolutely from the further use
of spring and well water until a carefdl
investigation can be made The
following marriage licenses have been
issued from Judge of Probate A. W.
Wise's office" this week; Mr. W. D.
Rodman and Miss Jessie Millen, both
of Rodman; Mr. Leslie Weir, of Blackstock,
and Miss Cora Rains, of Abbeville;
and Mr. Willie Johnson, of Columbia,

Howze, who went to Columbia Tuesday
to recover .Mr. \V. A. Barnett's

that the w car was stolen by Johnny
Boone, an inmate of the State Hospital
for. the Insane who had recently
run away , from that institution, and
that the Ford Car found here was
stolen from A. A. Rabb, of Gadsden.
The supposition is that Boone took

where for some reason or oth^r he
abandoned the Rabb car, and helped
himself to Mr. Barnett's machine".
the provisions of the "War Risk Act, is

becoming payable after his death
shall be distributed in like manner as
the estate of the insuranced. descending
to the soldier's heirs and not to the
heirs of the beneficiary no matter
whether a will may have been executed
by that beneficiary to the contrary.
This is the substance of the decision
handed down by Federal Judge
Whitmer in the case of Cassarello vs.
United States'" recently tried in the
District Court' of 'the United States,
Scranton,. Pennsylvania.

The insured , .died October ,?9,. 1918.,
,A question as to the identity of the I
beneficiary, arose,' he having been I
khow as ' Patsy Giletti, Patrick Gil-|
!letto, Patrick- Chilant-and other variations
of the, original Italian ^iame. ,
Before it liad been established thai j
the designated beneficiary "was a full ,
brother ' of the insured soldier, the '
beneficiary died. He left a will nam.jng'Savino
Cassarelio as executor of j
his estate, empowered to collect the
War Risk Insurance installments
which had accured, as well as those {
which should become due and to <
transmit these future installments to |
the beneficiary's wife and daughter.
Tq- effect this the executor brought '
actipn against the United States. '
As to the installments which had j
accrued prior to the beneficiary's death |
and remaininfr unpaid at that time,
there was no dispute. They passed 1
according to the beneficiary's will as
they were already due the beneficiary's j
estate, The contest had to do with
the'installments not yet payable when 1
the beneficiary died and it was claim- i
ed by the executor that, these . also j
were, a part fl16 beneficiary's estate. t
The court, however, decided, ana
thereby upheld an opinion of the
General Council of the Bureau of War .
Risk Insuranpe, that a beneficiary under
the War Risk Act is entitled to
insurance installments only ' so long '
as he lives and that thereafter ir.e installments
much' he distributed to
those persons surviving the soldier j
who would be entitled to the soldier's '
estate tinder the laws of intestacy of

"The blood of the patriotic soldier
must' have boiled with indignation to.

his services, including his board

-Any man who could saw a |

"Leaving.out oj the computation every

gratitude "and applying only the rigid
rule of mathematics we cannot' deny
that by allowing the man who fought
for his country, who placed his life in

provided in his bill. We'are still
giving him for his services with all
their risks and hardships a compensation
much below that which the common
laborer in the United States re

"Even though our action calls for

SPARTANBURG CHAfNGANGS
To be Investigated by Order of Governor
Cooper,
Governor Cooper has ordered an official
investigation of complaints that
certain convicts on the chaingangs of
this county have been given preferential
treatment and have been allowed
too many privileges, says a Spartanburg
dispatch.
It is alleged that one of the convicts,
serving a twelve year sentence
for murder is allowed practically full
liberty, and spends the week-ends
,with hiB family, in the city, while another
has been permitted to-take trips
out .'of the state, and that still others
arenot convicts,,in the sense of the

REPRIMAND FOR SIMS
But Admiral Takes it as Merely Part
> .
of the Day's Routine.
Secretary Denby on Friday "publicly"
reprimanded Rear Admiral William
S. Sims as a result of the speech
of the admiral made in London June
7 in which he criticised Sinn Fein
sympathizers in America.
In the' reprimand Mr. Denby pointed
out that once before the navy department
had. found it necessary to
take similar action against the officer
fpr an address delivered in London in
1911' and, referring to the text of that
reprimand. ' added:
. "Your remarks on the occasion now
under discussion, therefore, constitute
a'flagrant ,\ncl deliberate disregard of
specific instructions."
While the naval secretary was making
public the reprimand, Admiral
Sims was calling on President Harding
at the "White House. It was explained
that the admiral called to
leave his card as is the custom with
high naval officers returning from a
trip abroad, but that the president invited
him to chat for a few minutes.
Upon leaving the White House, Admiral
Sims, referring to the reprimand,
said:
. "I got what I deserved, the same
old thing." He added that he regretted
having caused the administration
any inconvenience, but said that he
now considered th<* incident closed.
Visit at White House
So far as could he learned the'Vep
riinand was not mentioned duriny the
admiral's visit to the. president, 'tlpon
leaving the White House, the officer
joked with newspaper correspondents.

executive had been pleasant, he re

plied sharply but with a smile:
"Of course it was."
Admiral Sims..left tonight for Newport,
R. L, where he will resume his
duties as president of the naval war
college. AVe went abroad several
weeks ago to receive a degree from
an Eng-lish university. After his London
sp'eech his leave was revoked by
Secretary Denby and he was ordered
to return to America immediately.
The officer will be furnished with a
copy of his reprimand, and, it was
explained, another copy will be attached
to his record". Other copies, naval
officers said, will be distributed to the
niaval service in the form of a general
order to be read to the crews of all
vessels and- stations along with other
orders on the. first Sunday of the
month after promulgation -to the service.
? Declaring the British government
to be deeply- anxious that .King
George's appeals for reconciliation in
Ireland shall not have been made in
vain, Premier Lloyd George has appealed
to.Eamonn De Valero, the
Irish republic leader, and Sir James
Craig, the Ulster premier, to attend a
conference in London "to explore to
the utmost the possibility of a settle^
ment.. The invitation is contained in
a letter, dated June 24, and which is
couched in identical terms to both Mr.
De Valera and Sir James, except for
necessary verbal changes. "The British
government," it said, "are deeply
anxious that as far as they can assure
it, the king's appeal for reconciliation
shall not have been made in vain.
Rather than allow another opportun-.
ity for tt<e settlement in Ireland to '
cast aside they feel it incumbent on
them to make a final appeal in the
spirit of the kingfs words for a conference
between themselves and representatives
of southern and northern
Ireland. I write therefore, to convey
the following invitation to you as
Ljw _m tfl ill y jHj
1111 til jp*
the chosen leader of the great majority
in southern Ireland and. to Sir
James Cvp.ig, premief of northern Ire^
land: First, that y^ou should attend a
conference here in/London, in company
with Sir James Craig, to explore to
the utmost the .'possibility of a settlement;
second that you should bring
with, you for that purpose any colleagues'whom
you may select. The government
will, of course, give safe con
duct to all who may be chosen to participate
in the conference. We make
this invitation with the fervent desire
to end the ruinous conflict which for
bittered the relations of the peoples'
of these two islands, who ought to live
