'Jump Or* Meeting* Were Held In
Columbln and Sumter.
Columbia, June, 21.—When the list
of ^entries into the Democratic pri
maries closed today at noon, there
was opposition for only three State
offices, for the United States Senate,
in four districts for Congress and five
circuits for Solicitor.
From the present outlook, the
forthcoming campaign, which opens at
Sumter tomorrow for the United
y. States Senate and at Columbia for
State offices, will be unprecedentedly
quiet. The people are not thinking
about politics, particularly as there
are very few pronounced issues.
The most interesting race will be
for the United States Seuftte: E. D.
Smith, of Lynchburg, incumbent, is
being opposed by George Warren, of
Hampton, solicitor of the Fourteenth
Judicial Circuit; William P. Pollock,
of Cheraw, former United States Sen

SERIES Of MEETINGS
( LOSE AT WILLISTON
Rev. D. P. Montgomery Preached to
Immense Crowds Twice Daily.
Williston, June 21.—The series of
meetings in the Baptist tabernacle
came to a close on the night of June
15th. The noted evangelist, the Rev.
D. P. Montgomery, preached to im
mense crowds twice a day for two
weeks. Never for an instant did the
interest of the public flag. There
were 75 additions to the church. The
secret of this evangelist's success is
his earnestness and devotion to the
cause he represents. The apprecia
tion of the public was evidenced by
the donation of about $1,000. Wil
liston and the surrounding country
never fail to "go over^ the top.**
Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Fletcher are be
ing congratulated on the arrival to
day of a fine little daughter, who has
come to bless their home.

one to the second and another to the
third by good clean hitting. Williston
tied it up in the first half of the
fourth when the local players made
several costly errors in rapid suc
cession. After that neither side was
able to score, although the locals got
men on third base twice and the
visitors once. In addition to the
pitching of Adams, the other features
of the game were two double plays,
one by each team.
There seems to be some difference
of opinion as to the number of hits
and errors credited to each club. The
local official scorer credited Barnwell
with ten hits and charged the team,
with five errors, crediting the Willis
ton team with one hit and one error.
On the other hand, it is understood
that the Williston scorer states that
Barnwell made only six hits and five
errors while Williston made three
hits and four errors. The People has
asked experienced hall players the
difference between A hit and an
error and from the information
gathered it would seem that several
