Fleischman, on Market street, was found to be on fire. The alarm was given, but by the time the people began to arrive had gained such headway that there was no chance to put it out or to save anything from the building. Everything in Mr. Fleischman's store was consumed. The adjoining room in the building was occupied by T. E. Pratt, colored. Everything in that part of the building was removed before the fire reached it. The building was owned by Mr. W. P. Pololck, and was insured. Mr. Fleishman and Pratt also carried insurance. i Fortunately, the walls of the Pollock building were good and strong, and the fire was confined to that one building.

The Spectator, a leading life insurance journal of New York city, has the following to say in a recent issue concerning the work of Mr. C. W. Estes, general agent of the Southeastern Life, for 1910, after giving some very flattering figures concerning the year's business of the company: "At the annual meeting of agents, held recently, a 'One Hundred Tbouasnd Dollar Club' was organized, and the honor of being its first president fell to C. W. Estes, general agent at Cheraw, S. C. Mr. Estes paid for $369,000 of new business last year, which gives him high rank among insurance porducers of the state. He has been with the company since its organization, and is a brother of the former president, Eliott Estes. President J. I. Westervelt, Vice President and General Manager T. O. Lawton, Jr., and their fellow officers made good during -9-0, and confidently look forward to better results this year." Mr. Estes produced for the company a total business of over f700,000 last year. The above figures of $369,000 refer to his personal production. Council Elects Officers.

Mr. Wendling is said to be the peer of any lecturer now before the public. The subject of his first lecture, on Tuesday evening, will be "Stonewall Jackson." On Wednesday evening his subject will be "The Man of Galilee." Tickets for these lectures can be secured now at Ladd's drug store. It is hoped a large crowd will greet Mr. Wendllng, and from information received, The Chronicle has no hesitation in promising that all who hear these lectures will be amply repaid. The Wadesboro Ansonian, says: "Mr. Karl Taylor, a prominent business man of Ruby, S. C., spent Monday in Wadesboro." Karl is from Mt. Crogbaa, Brother Sirens. Visit to Mr. Mackay. Mr. William Godfrey is back front Philadelphia, where he spent several days the past week. Mr. Godfrey reports having spent some time very pleasantly with Mr. Robert Mackay, at his home in that city. A lette. to The Chronicle from Mr. Mackay, under date of January 26, has the following, which will be read with interest by Chronicle readers: "Already my recent 'Birthday Greeting' to old friends in Cheraw has been productive of good fruit, for today I was pleased when a gentleman called on me, at my residence, introducing himself as Mr. William Godfrey, of Cheraw, saying he had read my letter in The Chronicle of January 19, and wanted to do something to relieve my 'homesickness'. We had what, to me at least, was a deMghtful chat, and I hope his good example may be followed by other Cherawans who may be passing this way." Mr. Mackay then goes on to say that "by the strange irony of fate I have failed to receive The Chronicle of the issue of January 19", and asks us to ? -11 onnv n/hlnh it tit a a liliUl ill til anvrcu^i .v ^ our pleasure to do. Mr. Mackay, as stated In bis "Birthday Greeting" to old friends in Cheraw, published In The Chronicle January 19, was born in Cheraw 67 years ago, and although it has been a number of years since he visited the old town, he is pleasantly remembered by quite a large number of our people,, all of whom would be delighted to wee< him in their midst again, if only for a short time. Mr. Mackay's address !? 1416 North Sixteenth street, Philadelphia, Pa., and anyone from old Cheraw will receive a warm welcome from him if they visit the City of Brotherly Love. Death ?f Mr* f.

On fcaching his majority, lie followed in his father's footstep* and became a member of St Jphp Lodge, and at his death he was a member of Hamlet Lodge, No. 53. ' He is survived by his widow; by a sister, Mrs. J. F. Johnson, of Wilmington; and by four sons?Messrs. G. D. Bishop, wire chief of the Ameridftn Telegraph and Telephone Company* Atlanta, Ga.; F. M. Bishop, draftsman* Charlotte, N. C.; J. P. Bishop, telegraph operator, Wilmington, N. C.; J. S. Bishop, auditor of the C. and L. railroad, Cheraw, S. C. Mr. EJsnop was a man df excellent habits, fine moral character, and & sturdy constitution, ^ffe was a bookkeeper by profession, and continued active in his accustomed pursuits uatil long past the age at which men ordinarily drop out of the ranks of the TWAfl/oro Wn ha/I fill oil fho vorinna ro_ lations of life, as son, husband, father, brother, friend,?and filled them well. Who can do rnoie.' But he is gone! Another name is stricken from the ro'l, and a home is left lonely, to attest how sadly he will be missed. It muct be so; these tender human ties, cannot be severed without a pang. Yet in such a death the:-e is really no cause for g*ief. His life work was done. He had passed the three-scoreand-ten mr.rk and, wearied with life's duties aud ca-es, weary of suffering and waiting, he lay down to rest. "Tired! ah. yes! so tired, dear; I shall soundly sleep tonight, With never a dream and never a fear To wake in the morning light." Not for him be our tea's! Rather let r.s c own his grave with garlands. Few of us will live as long or as. well, and fewer yet will the Angel of Death greet with such a loving touch. After services held at the home,. conducted by Rev. Marvin Auld, tile remains were taken to Wilmington, N. C., for interment. The Baptist Young People's Unfcn next Sunday evening will be led byMr. H.
