Store of the J. 0. Witt Supply Company Entered. North, Dec. 16.?Special: The store of the J. C. Witt Supply Com pany was entered early Monday morning by a robber, supposedly Arthur Langford, colored, as part of the missing articles were found on his person when arrested. At half-past four o'clock a citi zen of the town in passing on Mon day morning say that the glass in the front door was broken and im mediately reported the matter to Chief of Police Byrd. The Chief is always on the alert and appear ed on the scene before the rain had effaced the ftracks of the robber He, with Constable Reed, Messrs. J. M. Knotts and Paul Argo, took up the interesting chase. They ex perienced some difficulty in track ing him out of town on account of the pavements, Jbut finally struck the trail on the road leading to Jones bridge, and from there it was simi lar to "tracking a rabbit in the snow to its bed." They followed the trail for 12 miles and arreBted Langford near the town of Salley. It seems he had a fancy for 3, as he took 3 pair of trousers, 3 hats, 3 pieces of cloth and an overcoat, and perhaps other things. Guess he will serve 3 weeks, 3 months or (more likely) 3 years on the chaingang. MASONIC ELECTION. Eureka Chapter, No. 13, R. A. M., Elects Annual Officers. Eureka Chapter, No. 13, R. A.

Ere long the sound of wedding bells will be heard far and near throughout this neighborhood, for between this date and the 31st of December, the following young people of this com munity are to be married: MIsb Corrie Way to Mr. Walter Felkel, Mis6 Viola Shuler to Mr. Spain Myers, Miss Lucille Dantzlor to Mr. Attlcus Moorer, Miss Lizzie Avlnger to Mr. Walker Myers. What does the Editor think of that for wed dings? Everybody welcomed the steady downpour of rain last night. Think we will feel better now that the dusty atmosphere has been cleared. Mr. Grady Shuler, a prominent young man of this section, was tak en to Charleston Saturday, the 11th, to be operated upon for appendicitis. His many friends will be glad to know that thus far the operation haB proved successful. We hope to see a large crowd at the North Providence Christmas en tertainment next Friday evening.

PINEWOOD MOURNS DR. 8ALLEY Saddened by the Passing of the De Voted Physician. A special to The News and Courier from Plnewood says "The town and community were saddened on ac count of the death of Dr. Paul Mc Michael Salley, which occurred on Sunday, about 3 o'clock. Dr. Sal ley went homo from his office on Thursday and was taken critically ill, the trouble being hemorrhaglc fever. He was at once put on he roic treatment by brilliant, experi enced and attentive physicians, but to no avail. "Dr. Salley was a bright, progres sive and successful physicians, hav ing practiced here for twenty-two years, winning the \ove and confi dence of almost the entire iommuni ty. He was a native of Orangeburg, and was 49 years of age. Dr. Sal ley was not only a good physicians, but a valuable citizen, never shirk ing duty, but always ready to re spond when called upon to help in anything pertaining to the progress or upbuilding of the town. At his death he was.a member of the board of trustees of the graded school ahd had recently been elected mayor to serve for the ensuing year. The funeral services were held at the residence of Dr. Salley at 4 o'clock by the Rev. W. H. Barnwell. "He is survived by a widow and five children. The body was carried to Orangoburg for interment. It was in charge of Pinewood Lodge, No. 124, K. of P. The body was ac companied by the teachers of the graded s.hool, and one child from each grade." The remains arrived in Orange burg over the Atlantic Coast Line Railway about half-past one o'clock Tuesday and were interred in the SunnyBide Cemetery in the presence of a large concourse of relatives and friends. A large number of friends came over from Pinewood with the remains to pay their last tribute of respect to the beloved physician and sincere friend. INTERESTING MEETING Of the Daughters of the Confederacy Held Recently. Paul McMichael Jhapter, U. D. C, met with Mrs. Joe A. Berry on Wednesday morning, Dec. 8. After a short business session, Miss Marion Salley read a splendidly written re port from the State convention U. D. C, which met at Newberry. This report was of the business and his torical part of the convention. Mrs. John Cart gave a most enjoyable ac count of the social side of the con vention. In the absence of Mrs. Lawton H. Wahnamaker, the President gave a short talk on her visit to the Con federate Soldiers' home in Colum bia. She told of the many comforts enjoyed by the old soldiers, some of the veterans are content to sit and smoke and talk of days in camp, others say give us something to do, a garden to tend, a patch o fstraw berriea, anything that we might call work. Mrs. Mortimer Glover, as ihair man of the committee, reported many magazine ready to ship to the Con federate roldiers' home. The com ing of "Alice in Wonderland" was discussed. The chapter is looking forward with great pleasure to a vis it from Sister EBther Corlotta dur ing the winter. Happenings at Woodford. Woodford, Dec. 13.?Special: Bro. Belvin, our beloved pastor, preached his last sermon here last Sunday night. His subject was "Opportunity," which quite a large crowd enjoyed. He left Tuesday morning for Conference. We sin cerely hope he will be sent back to us another year. Mr. and Mrs. Lucus, of Gasten, are visiting Mrs. P. L. Wingard. Miss RoBa Lee Bozard is visit ing relatives here. Mrs. Irvin Williamson and Mrs. J. M. Robinson spent Sunday with Mrs. Y. E. Axson. Mr. Jerome Ulmer Is visiting friends in North. Mr. F. O. Livingston spent Sat urday in Columbia. Mr. Wm. H. Redmond and Mr. Ehrhardt, of Ehrhardt, spent Sunday here. MIbb Annie M. Knotts spent Wednesday in Columbia shopping. Mr. O. D. Cam visited his brother in Augusta last week. Only a few more days and Christ mas will be here. We hope Santa Claus will not Blight a single little one and that every little heart will be made glad. One Day to the Ideal. It is beautiful to give one day occasionally to the ideal. One day in which books and stocks and deeds and notes, and interest and mort gage, and all kinds of business and trade are forgotten, and all stores and shops and factories and offices ! and banks, and ledgers and ac ounts, and lawsuits are cast aside, put away uhI lock el up. an-I the weary heart and brain are given a voyage to fairyland. Let us hope that such a day is a prophesy of what all days will be. Will Hold Bazaar.

Oysters will be served at the Cope school house, at Cope, on Friday night for the benefit of the Woman's Missionary Society of the Baptist church. The public are invited. The Marcbant Music House of th?s city recently sold a piano to Judge J. C. Klugh, of Abbeville. This sale shows that thiB enterprising music house sells its goods far and near. Sims' Book Store has Just re ceived a supply of Autocrat Linen, which is one of the best fine corre spondence paper made. Try a box. It does not cost any more than the common kind. Mr. Felder, who was shot in Char lotte, is getting on nicely and it is now believed that he will soon be out again. The ?ward who ?hot. him should be made to pay for his attempted crime. There will be an entertainment at the Carson school house, Provi dence township, on Friday after noon, Dec. 24, Commencing at three o'clock. Oysters and other refresh ments will be served. Such cowardly fellows as Harry Jones, who shot Mr. W. L. Felder, of St. Matthews, at Charlotte Tues day morning, should not be allowed to handle firearms. He was scared to death when he shot at Mr. Fel der. If we mistake not Mr. 0. 6. Zelg ler, who is now reported to he pro moting a big wator powe- enterprise on the Edisto river near Ridgeviile, once spoke of developing a siT-.M.i water power near St. Matthews, but we never hear of it now. Mr. D. G. Zeiglcr, who is repor^J to be at the bead of a company that is developing several water powers in this and other States, some years ago claimed that he had Invented perpetual motion, but it saems that he wa? mistaken as wo never hear of it any more. Mr. D- G. Zeigler is almost equal to Col. Mulberry Sellers in inventing money making scheme* that dor.'t make money. We hope his Ridgo ville BCheme, a full account of which we publish on the first page, will pan out better than his perpetual motion invention. An Old War Relic. Mr. M. B. Gue, of Norway, who served the Lost Cause gallantly as a soldier from first to last, has an old time war relic that be prizes very hljhly.

Reeves will take charge of the St. Joseph hotel about the OrHt of February as proprietor. The hotel will be refurnished throughout and will be run in an up-to-date man ner. Mr. Reeves has run a board ing house in tills city for years and has always ha'* as much nitronago as he could take care of. We fe?l suro that he will make an ideal "mine host" for the St. Joseph. Pane of (?okk Fell. A large patio of glass fell from one of the windows on the second story of the El?to Building on Mon-1 day. It fell right next to the Bap tist church yard on Russell street, | and just missed some man who was passing. The pane of glass was about three feet square, and had It struck any one it would bavo undobte'lv injure 1 them severely. J Notico of Discharge.
