The cotton storage warehouse of the Farmers Warehouse Corporation was totally destroyed by fire at 1:30 o'clock Friday morning, together with 366 bales of cotton stored therein. When discovered flames were issuing from the room on the south side and such headway had been made that there was no chance of saving either the building or contents. No one is able to tell definitely how the firo originated but it is conjectured that it was caused from lightning, as a guy post on the opposite side of the street north of the building was struck by lightning the afternoon be fore during an electrical storm, and splinter* were found behind the ware house which corresponded with the parts torn from the post. In addition to this evidence persons passing the warehouse early the evening before scented burning cotton but seeing no outward evidence of fire attributed the odor to the belief that persons living nearby were burning old rags to drive off mosquitoes. Evidently the tiro smouldered for some time be fore the Uames burst out. The cotton was fully insured and the building partially so. ? Kershaw Era.

MANY MURDERS CHARGED man Butcher Said to Have C fessed to Killing Seven Boys. .Berlin, July 2. ? A gruesome dis covery was made by the police of 1 Hanover when they arrested a butch er named Harrman on the charge of wholesale murder. According to the police Harrman has confessed to murdering at least seven boys and young men in his .home. The arrest followed the find ling of a sack containing, five skulls and divers bones of several persons near Hanover. Harrman, the police says, told them he had cut the heads off his victims and had thrown their bodies into a river, but the fact that tho bones were found in the sack has led the police to believe that he .sold the human flesh as meat. As several more persons are miss ing, it is believed the number of vic tims may be greater. Conductor J. B. Watson, running between Yorkville and Columbia, said Sunday evening that the rivers and swamps below Camden are full to overflowing. Also he said he crossed a bridge over the Edisto river Satur day night, ordinarily eight or ten feet above the average river, and the water was almost up to the floor of the bridge.? York Enquirer.

Raymond Browning closed Lancas* tor's greatest revival Sunday night in keeping w^ith tho great influence he had spread over Lancaster and vicinity. Handicapped often by stortus, electric lights and a badly damaged tent the "Sin Fighting Evangelist" with his co-workers charged onward and routed sin. Co operation by the local pastors, busi ness men and Evangelistic Club added greatly to the evangelistic wbrk and the good results accomplished can not be denied. The t'our weeks' revival eame to Lancaster at the request of the local pastors and Raymond Browning, a man of God, with strik ing personality, an eloquent speaker, and a marvelous illustrator at the gospel wheel steered much good straight into the .hearts of the thous ands that heard him. The attendance has been good and never in the hist ory of Lancaster have so many heard the gospel in so short a time. Visit ors from adjoining counties havo often been seen in the audience alid the attractive Browning methods never failed to add interest among the throngs that heard him daily. Credit is due Arthur Lynn, "The Golden Tenor," director of Lancas ter's largest gospel chorus. His solo at each meeting was inspiring and added, greatly to the work of Mr, Browning. The gospel chorus, com posed of Lancaster's talented singws, "never failed^ to do their part, render ing the musical program equal to the best. The pianist, Rufus S. Perkins, a musician of note, did his duty with his masterly touch of the ivory keys. Sometimes without lights and other inconveniences, Rufus Perkins never faltered at his important post. Cus todian Fred Siebert, a man's job to care for the tent tabernacle regard less of weather and storms and see to the comforts of all, did his work in a gracious manner. "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God," 3rd chapter Gospel of John. Illus trating the hiM-<me? pie-turf* of? NHrre demus, and Moses lifting up the ser pent in the wilderness Mr. Browning rapped the church members who have just the shell of religion. "Whoso ever believeth in Him shall not pefish. but have everlasting life." Saturday morning service: "Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elder* of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.'-' "And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise I him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him/' A large sized Saturday morning audience heard Raymond Browning's message and about 15 came forward and were anointed with oil and the prayer of faith. Mr. Browning, before a large after noon audience who had gathered re gardless of the inclement weather, spoke on I Corinthians 13:13; "Faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is loye." beautiful theme impressed upon his hearers with his attractive style of illustra tion. A story of "Mother's Love" bore down upon his audience and brought tears to thr eyes of many. The tent tabernacle was crowded Sunday night with the most inter ested audience of the twenty-nine days of revival. Just as the tent was filled the rain began to fall adding charm and solemness to the final cloeing of Raymond Browning's clos ing message. In a manner that will long be remembered by the throng that heard Browning's profound, tear filled illustrative sermon, his . last plea to the people of Lancaster, to give their hearts to God. The slowly falling rain with the speaker's emo tional discourse, tuned the great audience to a Godly spirit. "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ; for it is the power of God unto the salvation to every one that believeth.. to the Jew first, and also to the Greek." Mr. Browning in his closing illustration wept and prayed for Divine assistance to draw Lan- 1 castrians to God and then called for those who wished to surrender their hearts. The door of salvation was wide open and 222 Lancastrians came for ward and gave their hearts to God acknowledging so by shaking the hand of Raymond Browning. A Krand closing that will last long in the hearts of the throng of Sunday night. Raymond Browning and his three co-workers thanked the good people of Lancaster for their many courts sies extended them during the four weeks' revival. I>anc*?trisns werc complimented on their generosity and the deep interest displayed. The great revival revived and the results accomplished cannot be measured in words. "Seek and it will be found" for the closing words of the revivalist were "When I came to Lancaster the ;door.s of God'a mercy were wide openi ? when I leave they are wuW open." The total expenses of the revival were $2,131,34, which included the seats and other equipment furnished. Seats and other articled were given Mr. Hi ow ning which amounted m dollar* and cents to approximately $500, Mr. Browning's personal ajul new tent receipts were $2,000^30; making expenses and griffs to the cause $4,7117. 04.
