The Baptist women of the South have agreed to raise one-fifth, of the entire sum, or $15,000,000. The men and women who came together in Columbia exhibited intelligent grasp upon the greatness; the worthiness and the necessity of the undertaking, and tbe?e qualities were matched by a burn ing enthusiasm to put tfhe job over at whatsoever cost* -and iu a truly great ankl worthy manner.

MidPaniel, however, was mo*? hopeful of the outcome and 'insisted that he hutpod to get well, when Sheriff Hurst went to. the hospital to obtain an ante , mortem statement. As Mc Daniel stlFl Wlleved that he would re ?Over it wa? -imixyssilble to take a formal ante mortem statement, ?? but Sheriff Hurst took down a Statement "bt the circumstances of the shooting. MinUaniel stated that Tuesday after noon about 5 :30 o'clock he went into u wood lot on his land for <the pur pone pf selecting and marking a num ber of pine trees which he intended to out and have sawed Into .lumber to build an n<klition to h|s house. While in this worn! lot on his own property, some one shot him, from ambush with a shot gnu, the shot strikinig him in the ab domen and inflicting a serious wound, but not disabling him immediately. Ah *H>n as he was shot McDaniel ran deep er into the woods aud after going a short distance fell in a thicket. While lying there he heard some one calling him by nairne and he recognised the voice . as that of Jgke Butler, a neigh bor with whom he had been on bad terms for several years and with whom he had had a difficulty about three years ago at which time Butler waylaid him on the public road and gave him a severe beating with a club. Hearing Butler eall, he lay hidden and did not reply for he was in fear of his life. Batler searched the woods in the vi cinity of the place at which McDaniel was standing when shot and at one time c earn within a short diatatce of where McDaniel was bidden. McDaniel aaw Butler plainly and recognised him. But k*r had a shot gun in his band at the time. Butler remained in the woods searching for his victim for several hounj, McDaniel asserts, and It was not until about midnight tbat he left. Then McDaniel, brfieving that it was safe to make an attempt to get out of the woods, began crawling on his hands and knees toward the nearest house. He says that he was unable to walfc. at all and onljr by the greatest effort was he able to make any progress, having to atop at frequent Intervals on account of pain and weakness.

FHI EPIDEMIC EXPKCTED State Board of Health Issues Wanting to People. .^Columbia, July 26.? If influenza runs true to form South Carolina may exv pe?t another invasion of the disease this fall _artd winter in the 'opinion of Dr. James A. Hayne, State officer. The dif*ease is even now widely scat tered aver the State. A few cases haye been reported to the State health depart ment during practically every month since last October when it was raging over the whole State. In June, 10 cases of influenza were reported .by physicians. It i* probable that "there were many cases not reported, Dr. Hayne said yesterday*. "The history of other epidemics of ' influenza is that it continues for two or (three years with a gradually lessen ing virulence each year. I do not fear an extensive epidemic this fall hut there will likely be sporadic outbreaks over the State. In order to keep the dis ease from spreading, persons who con tract it should avoid place* where they may come in <dbn?act with others, and persons who have not oontratftdd it should keep strictly away from those >f-> fected. Persons ^ ill with* the influenza should remcmlber that it is an insidious disease and wheu they become ill with it they should go to bed and remain there five (fays after ther fever has left them. With all the people of the State care-, fully- consrving their health and taking no needless risks, I hope the disease can be held in check this winter." Raid On Gamblers. Chief of Police Whitaker and Officer Knight made a .raid upon a gapibting game in the house Of a woman , resid ing on lower Main Street last Satur day -night about il:30 o'clock. Four white men and one negro were placed under bonds of $26 each and released. None, appeared before the Recorder Mon day morning and the bonds wen for feited.
