C., under Postal Act of March 3, 1879. December 15. 1915 The fellow who stole the liquor from the express office here Monday night must have been inirsty indeed. - ? The express agent's work in a town near the North Carolina line is heavy about this time of the year. The quart law doesn't suit a good manv of the tar heels, and they eoine down and carry off whole gallons, and do it quite frequently. The diplomatic relations between the Uuited States govern ment and Austria have become strained because of the Ancona affair. The situation is considered somewhat grave. Con gress is no,w in session, and there is far more danger of a rupture than when the congressman were at linmu linin r\, ?-i <v tlmlr .. ... ..v.- "'VII I fences. k Senator Tillman has taken his place in the work of the Senate once more. His health has been so poor for several years that he was unable, to do much active work, but he looks as robust as ever and on Monday he made a speech in the senate in which he pleaded for an armor plate plant for the government vis the first step in the preparedness program of President Wilson. He has lost some of the fire of old, but experience has sobered him There has never been a chau tauqua held here, and there are a number of people, possiblv, who do not understand the na ture of the chautauqua attrac tions. The chautauqua is an educational show, not a circus, mind you, nor a vaudeville, but a real high class, helpful attraction by persons of superior talent, the kind the prachers and good church people can openly approve. In fact the preachers are among die most enthusiastic advocates of the chautauqua. The one which is coming to Pageland will last for three davs and there will be six attractions, \ one each afternoon and night. In the forenoon of each day a ~ speaker of state or national prominence will address the people. Everybody in the whole section should plan to attend. It is for the people in the country as well as in the town. Monroe Lady Asked to go With Ford Monroe, Dec. 10.?Miss Lottie i Miry Blair, daughter of Mr. and M Mrs. S. O.
