At a special election held at Pomaria on Tuesday in the Pomaria school district to vote on the question of issuing $3,500 in twenty-year bonds for the purpose of erecting a ^school! house, the vote resulted, 28 in favor of | the bond issue and 1 against it. The sentiment of the people in this; community is very substantially in I favor of improving the school equip ment as is evidenced by the large vote: i in favor of the bond issue. Arrangements will be made at once for sale of the bonds, and a contract will be awarded for the erection of the building. There is nothing that the people of the community could do that would be of more benefit to them than the bet- j terment of their school facilities, and i it is hoped that the action on the part j of the people of Pomaria will be an in-, centive to other communities in the j county to go and do likewise.

The boosters distributed advertising matter amongst, the crowd, took supper at the Xowberry hotel, attended a reception in th? rooms of the chamber of comm Tee after the Chautauqua attraction was over, and left next morning for greenwood. A ston of thirtv minul * was made at Chappells, and another stop at Ninety Six.

One of the most interesting of the social events of tne latter days or June took place at the elegent country home of Dr. and Mrs. W. C.

The bridesmaids, Misses Kate Thompson and Mary Brown, and groomsmen, Mr. Chalmers Brown and Dr. T. M. Mills, came in two by two, crossed, and stood on either side of the bell.

The bride received a number of beautiful gifts, among them was' a valuable chest of sterling silver and a substantial check from her parents. The bride's gown was white messa- j line satin and a veil of tulle and she I l carried a handsome bouquet of bride's roses and ferns, and the maids carried bouquets of carnations and ferns. After the ceremony the bridal party j drove to Newberry in automobiles and j left on the 6.44 train for Spartanburg, j where they will visit their parents for a few days, and then take a trip to Washington, New York and Niagara and other points.

' Locked in Cell, Bnt Let Out After Jlidnight by Unknown Parties. j | Policeman Turner worked up a case against John Wilson, colored, better | known as "Rabbitt." Mr. Turner and Chief Lominack, who were aware t'Jiat ; Rabbit was a tiger, searched his house j .Monday iV.ternoon about o'clock, af' ter arresting him. They found no whiskey oh the premises, but had proof of his selling. Rabbit was accordingly escorted to the guard house and locked up to get a good night's rest so as to be prepared for presentation on Tuesday morning in the recorder's court to answer to the charge of wihiskey selling. Midnight of Monday came and all was well. If Rabbit was not asleep he was in his cell thinking thoughts. Chief had seen that everything in the quarters was all right up to that time, and things were in the same condition when he left his office at the opera house and went home. That was ? minutes past 1 o'clock, or 1.05 to make it short. But some time between then and dawn of Tuesday, party or parties as yet unknown to the authorities effected the escape of Rabbit fro mthe clutches of the law. The liberation was conducted intelligently, and was managed by a master hand, except that it was bo easy, showing that the liberator knew exactly bow to do it. The man behind the grating didn't have to show his hand in it, the man outside knew what he was about, and must have been in lerebiea in gtauiig tut; pnwuci um. After the chief had retired and the officer of the night was on his rounds away from the opera house corner, th# man or men interested entered the office through the window, pulled out the desk drawer, got the key to the cell, and went around and unlocked the cell door, plainly showing that the party knew "the lay of the land." The strange part of this near-niiraculous escape is that Rabbit's friend in need and friend in deed didn't leave the key in the lock. He left a mystery to be solved. In the morning when the officers made the rounds of the house they found Rabbit gone. The lock was hanging in the hasp. The key was in the drawer where the chief iftad left it after turning in the blind tiger agent for the night. The man who opened tne cen aoor ana gave the prisoner his liberty, deliberately and presumably slowly, taking time, went back to the chief's office and put the key where and how he had found it. Mysterious performance that smacks of ghosts and hobgoblins. A scared man would 'have left the key in the lock, but that man didn't seem to j be in a hurry from all appearances, j In the circumstances it is supposed that Rabbit didn't run like- a scared tiger, but just walked out. Chief Lominack would rather find out who turned Rabbit out than to recapture Rabbit, although he wants to, and eventually will, get the escap- j ed prisoner and make him tell how it j was done.
