Disastrous Fire at Dalzell
Sumter, May 11;?Dalzell, a small
town located ten miles from Sumter,
was visited by a disastrous fire this
afternoon, which did an estimated
damage of between $12,000 and $15,000
before it burned itself out.
The blaze broke out in the brick
store occupied by L. T. Edens shortly
after 12 o'clock and was not discovered
until it?was beyond control.
This store and practically all of the
stock of general merchandise were
completely destroyed. The flames
spread from there to a large wooden
building owned by L. / K. Jackson.
This was unoccupied and was burned
to the ground. .
For a time the depot was threatened,
the only thing that saved it was
an engine on the tracks at the time,
which furnished water to the bucket
brigade.
Mr. Edens had insurance of $2,000
on his stock, while the building, the
property of Mrs. K. J. Brogdon, wa3
partially covered by $1,000 insurance.
The building of Mr. Jackson had
$1,000 insurance on it.

GUNMEN PARDONED
Two Men Who Shot Up Court House
Given Their Kreedbh
Richmond, Va., April 30.?During
a dramatic moment in the office of
the governor here this afternoon,
finis was written to the final chapter
of a story which 14 years ago
sent three court officials reeling int<\
eternity during the famous "Alien'
Gang" trial at Hillsville, and caused
a nation to gasp with horror.
Sida Allen and Wesley Edwards,
two of the six principals in the tragedy
ufter years of imprisonment for
their part in shooting up the court
on the memorable March 14, 1U12,
were granted conditional pardons by
Governor Harry F. Byrd several
years before their terms would have
expired.
As far as the state of Virginia is
concerned, the famous Allen case is
closed history.
The pardons of the'two men today
recalled the tragedy of long
standing in the mountains of southwest
Virginia. A judge, the sheriff
of the court, and the commonwealth's
attorney of the court which was trying
Floyd Allen, charged with a minor
offense, were victims of the guns
which barked from every corner of
the courtroom.
Judge Thornton L. Massie, Sheriff
Lewis F. Webb and Commonwealth
Attorney William M. Foster, did not
live to see order restored from the
riotous mob-spirit that terrorized the
town after the court was thrown into
turmoil by the unexpected raining
of the leaded pellets of death into the
tranquility of the small court room.
A juror, another victim, subsequently
died from wounds when
struck by a bullet as he sat in the
jury box.
A Tip on Making'Money
Every man wishes to make money.
Here is the surest and safest way:
Make yourself useful!
Don't gam-hie, jdon't speculate,
don't try to get something for nothing.
Give 1 useful, conscientious service.
Do each job that comes your way
the best you can.
That's about all there is to it.
This formula may not bring you a
millionaire's income, but it will enable
you to own your home, educate
your children, and spend the sunset
years of your life in peace and contentment.
------y . .
There may be exceptions; the best
we can do is to speak in terms of
averages, but if you make yourself
useful the chances are all in your
favor.
If this sounds like old stuff, just
^remember that there were men living
2,000 years ago who were just
as wise as any of us are today.
The basic rules of life hav(e not
changed?only conditions.
The most successful individuals
and most successful businesses, are
invariably those that are performing
some useful service.
Sometimes a business gets so big
that the man at the top appears to
be doing nothing except draw a stiff
salary for looking wise. As a matter
of fact, he would gladjy trade his
jab for your job. He now has to depend
on others to do things he once
did himself. This is not easy.
Years ago this man probably did
the most ordinary tasks. He did
them so well that he was givfefy more
work than he could handle alone.? So
he hired others to help him. He
trained them to do things his way.
His employes may number thousands
today, but the idea back of the
whole business is hone'st, useful service,
and the inspiration for this service
comes from the man on top.
That, briefly, is the story of every
successful man?Gyrus Curtis, the
publisher Charles Schwab; the Steel
man; Woolworth, the five-and-tencent
store man; Heinz, the pickle
man; Proctor, the soap man.
Each started by doing a useful job
well, and those that are living are.
still at it.:?Civic Opinion...
p ' ?
Why the Rush?
Old Farmer Tightmoney wasn't i
.stingy. He was merely economical
in the management of his big farm
.and all hiB hired hands. One morning
while repairing the curb to his un- J
derground cistern, he very unexpect-'
edly fell in, pulling the rope in with
.him as he went down. Having al-,
ways been a good swimmer, he had"
no trouble in keeping afloat, but the:
4 water was cold and he couldn't climb
out. His wife was helpless, alone and
without a rope.
"John!" she yelled excitedly down
to him. "Ill ring the dinner bell so's
the boys can come in and pull you
out."
"What time is it?" he yelled.
44 'Bout 11 o'clock."
. "No, dang it, let 'em work till dinner
time. Ill just swim around till
come." ?From Everybody's
Magazine.
