Permission Given to Reopen Wireless
Station at Gaffney For Reception
Only of Messages.
Gaffney.—Dr. Lee Davis Lodge,
president of Limestone College, made
the annoiin™™*"* thnt imyn- a p«yr
roll of Gaffney had subscribed $25,000
to the endowment fund of Limestone
College. The young ladies who have
the matter of the endowment in harid
are bubbling over with enthusiasm
over this handeome gift, feeling that
Mr. Carroll, by his princely gift has to
no small extent lightened the task
which they had set for themselves to
raise $100,000 for the endowment.
Harry C. Wheat, who prior to the
war had erected a very powerful wire
less apparatus in Gaffney, but who
"#as required to seal same when war
was declared, has been appraised that
he is at liberty to reopen his station
for the reception only of messages.
While this was good news to Mr.
Wheat, it is not his purpose to reopen
the station until he is allowed to send,
as well as to receive messages. The
station was erected by the young man
man solely for his own amusement.

Smallpox Epidemic Feared.
Smallpox has been reported recent
ly from various sections of the State
according to Dr. Jaa. A. Hyde. State
health officer, who said that there
were cases in Lexington, Marlboro,
Richland, Florence and other counties.
The disease is affecting whites and
negroes in about equal proportion.
In speaking of the situation Dr.
Hayne said that he was of the opinion
that the outbreak of smallpox was
due to the failure of school superin
tendents and trustees to enforce the
law requiring school children. to be
vaccinated. The disease had practi
cally disappeared from the State, and
its absence has brought about to a cer
tain extent , the abandonment of pre
cautions against it.

to aee them and they are proving a
great attraction everywhere they
appoc ’.
