Xepapas, of Columbia, were quietly, married in this city Wednesday at high noon, at the home of the bride, the Rev. W. R. McMillan performing the ceremony. The wedding was a very quiet one, only a few intimate friends and rela. tives being present. Immediately .. 1 after the ceremorfy a delightful dinner was served, and in the early > itfternoon Mr. and Mrs. Xepapas left for a wedding trip to Asheville, N. C. Mr. Xepapas was accompanied to the city by his friend, Mr. Douis G. Kanellos, of Columbia. * / Mrs. Xepapas is a young woman of many friends and acquaintances in the city. She is endowed with many charms, and she carries with her the best wishes of many friends. Mr. Xepapas is a young business man " of Columbia, and is a man of sterling character. He operates a large soda - establishment and candy store in Columbia. : ? 1 A Distinguished Visitor. Saturday morning last Bamberg had quite a distinguished visitor in the person of William G. McAdoo, secretary of the United States treasury. Mr. McAdoo, in company with Mr. B. F. Holley, of Aiken, had been on a hunting trip in the lower section of the State, and passed through Bamberg enroute back to Aiken, where Mr. McAdoo visits occasionally during the winter. Mr. Holley has a number of acquaintances in the city. He and Mr. McAdoo spent a | short time in Bamberg. The secretary, in addition to being Uncle Sam's treasurer, bears the distinction of being a son-in-law of President Wil6on. Sponge and angel food cake every Wednesday at G. A.

The Bamberg delegation to the general assembly has introduced a bill to combine the offices of probate judge and master for Bamberg county. This bill has passed the house and is now in the senate, and as the measure is uncontested, it will pass without trouble. Neither of these offices carry any salary, and the same system will prevail when the two offices are combined. It is possible that the delegation will " have the hunters license law made applicable to Bamberg county. WVicm tl-nc law was nasspd. Banibere. along with a number of other counties, was exempted at the request of the delegation. Now nearly all of the surrounding counties have had the law to apply to them, thus leaving Bamberg alone. This creates a very unsatisfactory condition of affairs, as hunters from neighboring counties can cross the lines in this county and hunt, thus escaping the license in their own counties. Senator Black's bill to require the State board of health to make the Washerman blood test stands a good showing of passing. If the measure passes this test will be made in a similar manner as typhoid, smallpox and other laboratory work is now carried on, without charge. At I present, it is stated, it costs considerable ,to have individual physicians make this test, whereas the State board of health can crrry on the work in the whole State on a small appropriation. Senator Black has a bill, which he belives will pass, that will do away with the roll call in tne general assembly when a candidate is to be unanimously elected. He also 1 has a bill in the senate in regard to ' the inspection of horses and mules. Representative Carter has a very ' important bill in the house in regard < to auto tax. There is a general bill t now in the house imposing a certain J tax on automobiles, the formation : of a State highway commission, and 1 making provisions for a portion of the auto revenue to be turned over j to the State highway commission. Represeptative Carter's measure is a substitute for the general bill, and . would require all of the revenue de- . rived from the tax on automobiles j to be spent in the county in which the tax is collected. * While Mr. Car- ' ter has hopes of getting his measure . through, it is evident that nothing short of a strong fight can accomplish this, as the other bill has precedence over Mr. Carter's measure. Mr. Carter also has a measure in regard to the railroads' liability for damages. We have not seen a copy of this measure, and do not know < the provisions of it, and as Mr. Car- j ter did not come home the past ] wTeek-end, he could not be interview- j ed with regard to this bill. : A nniroreorv aXIajlu v v* ^ ?

On the second day there will be a decorated automobile parade, similar to that held las(t year, which was such a pronounced success. The queen of the festival will be crowned, and there will be an address by some distinguished invited speaker. On the third day, there will be athletic contests, and awarding of prizes.

Mills, Which is to Cover All State Government Expenses. Columbia, Jan. 29.?The genera l-\ * 1 1 n*rvn f a t Vl , V* wpi lauuii urn ituu l 11 house today and Chairman Liles ha the distinction of having introduce! this most important measurer earlie than it has ever before been present ^ed. The committee members, Chie Clerk Malcolm Miller and Mr. J. C Townsend, chief clerk of the engross ing department, all worked with per sistency to get the bill into thi house today so that it could be read; j for consideration on Menday. The essential point of the bill i that it provides for a tax levy o 6 1-2 mills, which is to cover all o the expenses of the State govern ment. Notwithstanding the ver; heavy demands the appropriatioi bill shows a net reduction in the to tal of $79,260.80. It will be interesting to note ho^ continuously the appropriation bil has hung around the two million dol lar mark. These figures will be in teresting: 1914 $2,213,675.54 1915 .... .- 2,463,759.82 1916 2,384,499.02 It is very much easier to under take to make reductions in an ap propriation bill than it is to accom plish this. Chairman Liles in a talk with th< newspaper men after the introduc tion of the bill had this comment t< make: f 'The committee has faithfully en deavored to serve the best interest o: the State. We did not appropriate ii accordance with our desires,* but w< believe we appropriated as the condi tions of the State's finances justified The most careful consideration has been given every item and we fee sure that the .actual needs of even department and every institutior have been supplied, and we think w< have provided funds for extensior and improvements where the needs for such were great. x The work o; the committee has been absolutely harmonious. All differences were settled in the committee room anc we are ready to stand by our work I cannot speak too highly of th< faithfulness of the members of the committee. It has been a day anc ni^ht job since January 11. We arc hopeful that the results of our efforts will prove satisfactory to the people of the State. It will be noted thai for ordinary State purposes we have appropriated less than $2,000,000 The amount for pensions and for the a ?* Undnita improvement ui mo ocate 11VOtU/ for the Insane increased the total as shown. We have carried out th< resolution yf the committee to keei the amount raised by levy withir $2,000,000 and have reduced th< levy one-half mill."

While it is usually '< fact that January is a mild month this year it was unusually warm During the month, there was but on< "cold spell," which lasted about tw< days. During this cold period, th< thermometer registered a low tern perature; but other than these fev cold days, the weather has not beei even cold enough for a frost, an( most of the time it has been like lat< spring, even uncomfortably warm.

Byrnes is I evidently "on the job," judging from j the following Washington dis| patches: > Washington, Jan. 31.?Congressman Byrnes wants light on what is ! known as "bull pens" at munition I factories and today introduced a res1! olution directing the secretary of lae; bor to furnish the house with all s: available information regarding the ^ matter, r "It is alleged," Mr. Byrnes said, "that during the last 12 months , many accidents resulting in loss of life have occurred at factories engaged in the manufacture of ammunition in the United States, and in 0 many cases where lives have been " lost the facts as to the number of fatalities and the cause of such accis dents have beem suppressed, f ^ "It is also alleged that at some of these factories men are herded in what are known as 'bull pens' and from such pens groups of men, many of whom do not speak and cannot understand the English language, are selected for employment and placed v in the factories without receiving ^ sufficient warning as to the hazardous nature of their employment and are caused to handle dangerous explosives, thus endangering not only their own lives, but also the lives of their fellow employees." Washington, Feb. 1.?Congressman Byrnes, of South Carolina, will tomorrow lead a filibuster against the passage of the Keating child labor 2 bill. 5 Last week, when the bill was before the house, an all day fight was maHo Qp-jjincf- itc nassap'P hv m/I Byrnes and other members of the South Carolina delegation. Among those who took the floor in their opposition were Representatives Byrnes, Ragsdale and Nichols. 3 From an informal poll taken here 1 today, the bill will pass the house, , as it did last year. x It is not known what the senate ; will do with the measure, but strong 1 influences are at work to put it 3 through. f ' Washington, Feb. 1.?A resolution t directing the secretary of labor to in1 vestigate labor conditions at munition plants was introduced today by j Representative Byrnes, of South Car5 olina.
