Beautiful Marriage in Pleasant Valley. One of the most beautiful church weddings ever witnessed in this community took place Wednesday evening at the Pleasant Hill Methodist church, when Miss Loma Inez Harris was united in marriage to Mr. William Charlton McGinn. Promptly at seven o'clock the bridal party marched in to the sweet strains of Mendelsshon's mkrch, beautifully rpndprpd hv Miss RpKpppji Harris, sister of the bride. The church was most beautifully decorated with' ivy, ferns, and chrysanthemums. The bridal party came in in the following order: the bride and her maid of honor, Miss Kate McGinn, in the right aisle, and the groom and his best man, Mr. Walter Robinson, in the left aisle. The gates were opened and closed by little Miss Olive Harris and Master Olin Harris. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. M. , Owings, the pastor of the bride 1 and groom, and the bridal party 1 marched out while Tannhouser's wonderful production was being played. The bride was arrayed in white satin trimmed with baby Irish lace and made en train, her veil being tied with lilies of the valley. She carried a beautiful bouauet of white carnations and maiden hair ferns. Her maid of honor wore white silk, made directoire, and carried white chrysanthemums. The gentlemen wore the conventional evening attire. After the ceremony, the bridal party and a large com Dan v of invited guests repaired to the home of the bride's parents, j Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Harris, where an elegant reception was tendered them. Miss Aileen Harris presided at the punch bowl. After a bountiful course supper, the bridal cake was cut with the following results: the ring went to Miss Rebecca Harris, the thimble to Miss Aileen Harris, the bachelor's button to Mr. J. J. Bailes, and the coin to Mr. Rob McGinn. The bride and groom were the recipients of many beautiful and useful 1 presents, attesting the popularity of this young couple. After the honeymoon, they will reside in Fort Mill, where the groom is ; engaged in business and where he is well known for his sterling I character and business qualifica' tions. They have the best wishes of a host of admiring friends for a long life of happiness and prosperity. S. E. B. Will Revise Oar School Laws. A commission to revise the I South Carolina school laws is a | suggestion that Superintendent of Education Martin will make in hie onnnol fPW*>4- 4-U^ I 111 lllti (1IIIIUMI 1 t. 1 Jiat II1C I I present school laws are contradictory and confusing, due largely to the passage of special school acts at different times, is a condition that the State Supt. of Education says exists and in his opinion the work of all school authorities would be simplified and rendered more smooth by the appointment of a commission with instructions to remove the differences and bring the laws into . agreement. This plan has worked ! well in other States. Mr. Martin ; i lias for some time opposed the formation of special school districts by special acta of the Legislature, but the defects in the 1 school laws go even furtMf than this particular, t \ J I Some Timely Remedies | i COOPER'S COLD CURE, little chocolate tablets with just enough quinine pad laxatives to effect a cure in two days if taken in time.

Harlej^ at one , time pastor of the Fort Mill Methodist church, but now State superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League, is out in the papers with the statement that an extensive pnd vigoruos campaign is to be ; instituted right away, with a: view to influencing the coming Legislature to either pass a Statewide prohibition bill or provide for submitting the issue to the ! next primary. The first work will be before the several religious bodies, which hold State j conventions this fall. With a view to working up enthusiasm in the matter of I State-wiie prohibition a State convention of prohibitionists will be held at Columbia in the hall of the house of representatives on December 3, to which every minister of the gospel in the State, all executive committeemen of the League, and every state senator and member of the j house is invited and urged to at-' tend. Mr. Harley himself prefers re-! ferring the question to the peo- j pie. This would delay action for at least two years, insuring the continuance of the present sys-, tern in the meantime. When this scheme was urged in the last legislature it was objected to on the ground that all the legislature could do would be to refer the subject to the State Democratic convention with a request to refer it to the wople. The State convention votld down the proposition by a large majority, i Yorkville Gets Episcopal Orphanage. At a meeting of the board of | trustees of the Episcopal Home I and Orphanage, held Saturday in Charleston, it was determined | to separate the institution, re-11 taining the ladies home in Char- 1 leston to occupy the premises now jointly used and to establish the j orphanage at Yorkville, whose j uroo Arvr>oi/lL? ? v/it*-* " uo vunaiuci vu IU UC Ull" best of the propositions made. ' Greenville, Winnsboro, Green-1 wood and Spartanburg also submitted propositions. The offer j of Yorkville was considered to be equivalent to an offer of $30,000 > in cash and in addition the city ! is to furnish water and light free of cost for a period of 10 years. Greenville made the next best offer, which had a money equivalent of probably $15,000. The buildings of the old King's' Mountain Military academy, I founded by Gen. Micah Jenkins, Col. Asbury Coward, 11 acres of land, $5,000 in cash, practically made up the offer of Yorkville. Does This Suit YOU ? I offer for sale the ideal farm of Fort Mill township.
