The house belonged to Pageland Insurance & Realty company and was occupied by Will Clvburn. The loss was covered by insurance, just as the folks had about decided thai no more winter weather was qomingthe fiercit st "spell" of the season swooped down on us, and since Sunday one has had plenty of evidence that the ground hog's forecast of 40 days fine weather was a delusion. Mr. Bartley Mills, son of Mr. C. W. Mills, of the Providence section, and Miss Roxie Walden, of Lancaster, were married Sunday evening about A.30 at the bride's home by Rev. R. W. Cato. 'lhey are deserving young people. They will live in the Providence section. Representatives Odom and Rivers have passed a bill through the lower Douse to create a new township, to he known as Pee Dee, from a part of Steer Pen township. If this bill passes the I senate there will then be nine townships in the county. The reason given for the action is that part of this old township wants road improvement and part doesn't. The old township is a large one. .Rev. C. W. Jones, son of Mr. Ed Jones of the Patrick section, and Miss Leah Uerir of land, are to be married today at I noon at the Baptist church at I Ridgeland. Mr. Jones is a young minister and is well known throughout this county, having assisted in a number of meetings in different parts of the county.

The traveling public will be pleased to know that the C. & L. passenger trains now arrive and depart from the Seaboard station in Cheraw. Tlio r?M ciatihii 5c a mile from thb business section and much inconvenience has been experienced in making the transfer from one road to the other. The old station will be abolished, and all the freight and passenger business of the C. & L. will be handled from the Seaboard station. The change was effective Monday of this week. Senator Lanev had proposed a bill to compel the three roads to build a union station in Cheraw, and this action seems to be a compromise. The laymen's convention in Columbia last week was the most-largely- attended of any meeting of this kind ever held in anySouthern state up to that time, the registration reaching 1 11c ^ * on ine lasi day. resides the noted speakers on the program there were prominent men frcm all parts of the State in at tendance.

The meeting was full of inspiration from start to finish, and it is bound to prove of lasting good to the State and the people. The great need lor prompf and concerted action on the part of all American christians in sending the Gospel broadcast over the world was stressed by the speakers who spoke with much force and power. riG CANS LetriE Rot Your Compost || 1 am I ho champion rottor of the world.

Early in the game Judge Hughes v (fortified himself behind a notary's g seal afttiHifl .a nomination even v by force, and ttifs H6t having al- together turned attention IiOttf ^ him, he has supplemented it by ^ ,a recent statement to the effect _ tfiaf {>t arm totallv opposed to the f use of m3' narn? itr connection with the nomination arid to the selection and instruction of dele f gates in my interest, either di 3, fectly or remotely." The Re- \ publicans seem to be coming I'rmo a recognition of the fact e fhat tfie^ afC hot to depend on Mr. Hughes and in all. sections ~ of the country, with the excep- A tion of a part of New England, Sl (are disposed to give quiet acquiscefle; Even the New England i\ clamor is gftftoing manifestly less. The Roosevelt movement is being steadily crystal ized. It was given impetus when an in S( fluential delegation from Massa chusetts, in which Congressman it Gardner was includdd, made public announcement of o desire and an intention of going to the 1 National Republican Conven- c tion as supporters of the Roost-1 velt ticket. So far as anything c can be regarded as certain in politics, the opponent of President Wilson now has the field. A CHURCH NOTES Is METHODIST PROTESTANT Jphn., W.

"While the tongue \ works the brain sleeps," is another saying of the Japanese, which ex- presses their contempt for loquacious persons. * The Japanese are quick at repar- ~ I tee; their wit is keen and tempered, \ and they can often administer a per- f feet snub in brief, terse form. In 1 illustration of this there may be ( cited the following instance: There was being tried in a court ( a ease involving the possession and | ownership of a piece of property. The litigants were brothers.
