Married yesterday afternoon at the brides home in Pinewood, Mr. Lee Roy Gross and Miss Abbe Theo Ragin a daughter of Mr. JT. P. R;agin. Friday afternoon. about 4 o'clock a horse belongingr to Rees Green, a col ored man, who lives beyond Shady Side, was killed when it ran into the big plate glass front of D. C. Shaw Motor Co.'s show room The two horses were hitched to a wagon and for some unknown cause had become frightened and ran away. They were going up Sumter Street at full speed until they reahed the corner of Hampton Ave nue, when in endeavoring to turn they ran into the glass in front of the Shaw Company office and show room. One of the horses endeavored to turn and was cut only about the feet by the glass. while the other animal reared upon the glass and then came down on it. the glass striking it in the stomach near the bind legs and completely dis emboweling it. The horse was then pulled back out of the building by its mate and Mr. Plowden ran out of the buiding and cut the two animals loose. However, the injured horse was in such a pitiable condition as itstood in the street with its intestines hanging out that those standing nearby had pity on it and killed it at once by striking it in tbe head with an axe.-Snmter I1tem.

A very interesting service was held at the Methodist church on last Sunday evening at 7:30 o'clock. It was a un ion service for the purpose of extend ing a welcome to the new Methodist pastor, Dr. Watson B. Duncan. After te Opening services Rev. McCord of te Presbyterian church, took charge and introduced the speakers. Hon. J. H. Lesesne represented the town and in fitting words welcomed the new min ister as a force in the intellectual and. moral uplift of the community. Mr. Lesesne indulged in some reminiscence and referred to the time when Mr. Duncan first came to Manning. ex changing pulpits with the late Rev. Henry M. Mood who was then Pastor of the church here. The speaker re membered the text upon which Mre. Duncan preached that day and also re frred to the suggestion that perhap's the young minister had some other notive that time besides preaching the Gospel in Manng. He said that a very serious blow was given the church here a little later when the visiting minister married tbe organist. Hon. Chariton DuRant represented the Methodist church and in fitting words extended a very gracious wel come to the incoming pastor. Mr. Du Rant said that he was glad to welcome ta the commnunity a man whom many of the people here knew and loved. On behalf of the entire church the speaker peged the new pastor hearty sym pathy and co-operation. Mr. Wilkins represented the Baptls in the absence of the pastor of that church who was prevented from being present by sickness. Mr. Wilkins' talk was brief but hearty. The Rev. Mr. McCord spoke for the resbyterians and spoke very feelingly of the spirit, in which the Presbyter ians of Manning welcomed the new preacher. Mr McCord, using Presby terian phraseology, spoke of "install. ing" Dr. Duncan. Mar. Dancan was very happy over the hearty welcome and expressed high appreciation of the kind words that had been spoken. The occasion was a very delightful one and was greatly enjoyed by all present. A splendid program of mus ic added to the occasion. Obituaries. Ini sad bus loving rememberance of my two dear children, Placidia Shorter Stukes, who died May 24th, 19I4, and Harvey N. Shorter, December 24, 1914. Oh! the memory of the evenings as I stood with breaking heart, Seeing the ones I loved so dearly pierced by death's most cruel dart. I often sit and 'think of them when I am all alone, Fr memory is the only friend that grief can call its own. Oh! Placidia, how I miss your smiling face. where ever I go. I feel so lonly without you, but 'twas God who bereft me can all my sor rows heal. Oh! Sonny, my precious one, you want ed to walk the beautiful shore with farther and sister, But we didn't know you meant to leave us so soon.

C. LURING WILlD GEESE. Live Decoys Are Often Used and Made .. to Play the Traitor. . American wild geese each spring ini grate from waters of the southern states to the shores of the Arctic in northern Canada. The two great com mon varieties of the bird are the honk ers and the wavy, or white, goose. Bo0th "f these are extensively hut ed. Covering. ais they do. about 5.000' miles on their annual migration. these birds rest at v-arious !>laces -en route and are thus shot by sportsmen almost across the length of the continent. The birds have a peculiar trait of always leaving one of their number .on look out while the rest feed.. To aid in the shooting of wild geese live wild ones, captured young and raised in captivity, are often placed in feeding grounds in likely territory on the line of flight of the migrating ocks. These decoys arec terrible trai tors and by their calling often brinf the flying ones within shooting dis tance of the sportsmen. who lie in hid den lits near at hand. rainted decoys. sha ped like geese and made of steel, are also used by the hunters. In the latter case the men. from their hiding place in the pits, call the birds by using a goose c-alL, a metal instrume.s lke a flnte, which ,mimics the sound of the goose with remarka ble realism.-Philadelphia North Amer: ican. - WRiTING ON METALS. By the Use of Wax and Acids Etchings May Easily Be Made. U'sually a aman attempts to put his name onl his metal possessions by scratching with a file or knife polar and mai~kes the poorest sort of a job. It is really very easy to write on any metal-the blade of a jackknife, a watcease. skates-if one happens to know how. :and the attractiven'ess of the inscription is !. aited only by the artistic ability of the individual. Cover the plac*e where you wish to write wvithz a thin coating of melted beswvax. When the wax is cold write plainly wvith aay pointed instrument. being particulI:rr to cut the letters through the wax to the metal. Then mix one ounce of nmariatie acid and one-half of an ounce of nitric acid. or smaller quantities in the same pro portions (and remember that those acids are deadly poisons), and apply the mixture to tihe lettering with a feather, carefully filing each letter. Allow the acids to remain from one to ten minutes, according as the etch ig is to be light or deep. Next dii) the article in water, wash out the acids and moelt off' the wax, and the thing Is done. A little oil should be applied as a fonishing touch. Gold, silver, Iron or steel can be marked in this way. Youth's Companion. t.res O0% Sctes, 'Other Remedles Won't Curs.
