The quart law doesn't suit a good many of the tar heels, and they come down ami carry off whole gallons, and do it quite frequently. 1 he diplomatic relations between the I uited States govern ment and Austria have become strained because of the Ancona affair. The situation is considered somewhat grave. Con gress is noyv in session, and there is far more danger of a rupture than when the congressman were at home mending their fences. Senator Tillman has taken his place in the work of the Senate iiikv more. Mis health has been >o poor for several years that he was unable to do much active work, hut he looks as robust as ever ami on Monday he made a speech in the senate in which he pleaded for an armor plate plant lor the government as the first step in the preparedness propram of President Wilson. He has lost some of the fire of old, ^ hut experience has sobered him and he is now ,a much wiser sen step forward for Pageland. There has never been a chau i.uuiua held here, and there are a number of people, possible, who do not understand the na lure ol the chautauqua attrac lions.

In fact the preachers are among 'he most enthusiastic advocates of the chautauqua. The one which is coming to l'ageland will last for three davs and there will he six attractions, one each afternoon and night. In the forenoon of each day a speaker of state or national prominence will address the people. K very body in the whole section should plan to attend.
