Bennetts ville's Magnificent Oil Mill and Ginnery, with all its Machinery, Cotton Seed, Meal Hulls, &c., Burned. On Wednesday a few minutes after 1 o\dock,.tho large ginnery building at the Bennett8ville Oil Mill waB dis covered on hre.. A large crowd soon collected, hut it was soon seen that all efforts to stop its progress were futile with a Btrong westerly wind blowing directly for the other buildings near by-meal house, engine house, seed house, hull house, oil tank, and oil mill. These buildings with the neces sary conveniences cover about six acres, and one after another 1 Al an easy proy to the angry rushing flames. The buildings wore made of the best pino lumber, and the fire was so hot tbnt little could be accomplished with tbe water works or in the work of stopping tho firo on the premises, besides tho largo quantity of seed, there were not less than ono thousand tons of meal. Tho origin of the fire is not definite ly known, but it was the largest ever witnessed in our town. At times it was feared the Coast Line Freight Dopot and other property adjacent would go, but heroic efforts confined it to the Uil Mill premises. We learn that tho loss is about $95,000 and fully insured This lino property belongs to the Virginia and Carolina Chemical Co. A NEW DISCOVERY That May Trovo a Good Thing TSv^ry larmer who knows that clover and pea vines are nitrogen producing crops but they don't know why this is. So Scientists tell us that on the roots of these plants arc bacteria wince have the power in some way to take in ni trogen from the air and give it to thc soil. A discovery has been made by Dr. George T. Moore which will enable every farmer to grow thefluitrogen iiixiug bacteria himself and apply them to his crop. The Youth's Companion Eays: "He can send to the Department of Agriculture and get a small pack et of sterlized cotton, on which the germs are growing. With this come two tiny packages of chemicals. One of these he dissolves in a certain a mount o water, and drops in the eotlon germs and all lo soak over poms in i bi; bi her . lien tb< germs develop uh ?1 (be ? becomes cloudy with then This luiiky dui?! it> tl KUI poured crop the farmer wishes to plant, the seed is put into thc ground, and the germs begin their career of tak ing in nitrogen. They will do it in land where it has never been poss ible to raise a good crop of clover or cowpeas before'iud they xviii do it tendfold in/^itey fields. The -vrxjieTHiicnlers hope that thc bac teria will increase crops from five to fifty per cent., and do away with fertilizers." Tho Country Law Hidden. From Thc Raleigh Times, lt is plain that this is to be the most complete law-ridden country on the lace of the earth. This will be so of necessity, be cause of the manner in which our laws are enacted. In Eng land, for instance, the same law makiDg power is unchanged from year to year. While in this country legislators are, for the most part, new men at each session of the legislatures, and each ol' these feels that the ex istence of the country depends upon his contribution to the statute books. And so the sub jects upon which legislation is proposed are growing year by year." For the proof and correctness of the above, you have only to read the list of the new bills in troduced since the convening of tlie South Carolina legislature on tho 10th of January. The Great Work Tonic Tlie man who has no relaxa tion has no time to brood over his health, and brooding is fatal to a man whose nerves are high ly strung, If a man is constantly busy in mind from morning un til night he isn't in any danger ol' nervous trouble. lt's only when he relaxes and gives him self a certain amount of lei sure that he is in danger. A man is a good bit like a piece of machin ery. It is thc relaxation that tells.- Philadelphia Record. Deepest Part Ol' Tho Ocean. The deepest sounding ever made by any vessel was by the U. S. Ship Nero, while on th ; Honolulu-Manila cable survey, with apparatus borrowed from tho Alabastross. When near Guam the Nero got 5269 fathoms or 31,014 feet, only (50 feet less than six miles. If Mount Ever feat, the highest mountain on earth were set down iii this hole, it would have above its submit a depth of 2012 feet, or nearly half a mile of water. MARLBORO BAPTIST UNION. The Union Meeting of the Marlboro Baptist churches vas expected io con vene at Tatum to-morrow. The Tatum shurob at present has no pastor, and therefore the publishing of the time and the program for the TJuion was uot pubhehed. The pastor of the church at which the Uniou convenes publishes the program. This note will explain why wo will have no Union Saturday and Sunday. We hope this neglect or oversight wi!! ?ot happen a second time. Some of the neighboring pastors will take the matter in hand. RUFUS FORD. Bennettaville, Jan. 25, 1905. Get rich quick. How?

The new court house at Dar lington, said to be the finest in the state, was formerly dedica ted on the 14th with imposing ceremonies. The chief justice and his associates were present, also ex-judge Hudson and solici tor Johnson-all of whom made short addresses appropriate to the occasion. As many of our readers will read with interest what the two last had to say we take from the Darlington News the following : JUDGE HUDSON IN TART. He Haid in part that it was noi his pur pose to make a Bet sneech. this ho rout il m t do but if in the following up what had already been so well said he could nive a word of counsel ho would bo pleased. Sp?ukioR of the iawiessness in thc Slate, he said that he could not sec why appeal had been made to the pulpit, the press and the school. It was not there that re form could bc had, but in thc tribunal of justice. In this day and time judges have too little power and tho Bar does not eive a judge proper support Boing con fined to thc uiving of the law, the judue is stripped of his legitimate functions. Ile can only defioo the law uud many jurors could do thc same; perhaps not in legal terms. In England it is different, and in this State before the Constitution of I8G8 it was diffcront. Relbre such judges as Oneal, Wardlaw and a host uf others of that day the ciiminal trembled in his shoes. Thia Court House io all its ap pointments is all that could bc desired. I would 2njoiu upon the members of ibo Darlington Bar to remember that the re putation of those who havo gone before' is iu their hands, (bat it is their duly to emulate them in their conduct as officers of th?? Court, and to strive to keep up iii : .

More dian all is tho day memorable for thc reason that wo .haye in our midst the Su preme Court of Sorxth Carolina sitting in solemn session at this dedica*icm of" (fie new Court Hou.<e which has been erected by the enterprise of this people. On that bench there sits a son of Darlington ol whom you arc no doubt proud and well uiay you bo. This is his native county und town and here he received Iiis early training, which is after al the best train ing. There is no doubt that people have distinctive character as well as individuals. Some one bas said that there are three Masses of men, thc Causasian, who re presents mao in thc prime of his manlioi d und power; the Mongolian, who repres ents his old agc and the Negro, whore presents his infancy. Not only have indi viduals of the people of this couuty char icier, but the county has character. There is no need to go so far baok os the pre sentment of llic Grand Jury in the carly lays recounted by your first speaker Capt L?okor, it is herc to be seen now. Here s how she talks. Look at this build* og which wo arc now now setting apart for thc administration of justice, is it not in expression o'."character? Look, also, it her handsome school building, her Town Hall, her churches thc buildings in the public square. This court house s a thing of beauty, not only beautiful jut useful. This is her expression, I do lol with to seo any of* her territory cut off br fear her individuality of oliaraotor as i people will bc impaired- How wisc in Darlington county to build this house. 1 un glad to bo here. I look into your fa ?Cb and congrat?lalo you honestly on this ,vork, this is as much speech ns I should nakc. Darlington expressed her.-elfwhen ihe fitted a man to sit upon thc Supreme kuch of bomb Carolina. And in alioth ir way, Marlborough was fir.it, und Dar iogton second ia bringing to the bar of ustice a negro to bo tried for a oamelosS rime, In thus curbing their pas-ions nd oowing to the edict of law they ex tremed their respect for that law. With he examples set by these two counties ?ther counties io tho State followed, udge Lynch has never had a Court in tarlington. God grant ho never will. L community presided over by Ju Jgo lynch loses its self respect. Darlington m uo longer be called a town; it is a ity with all of thc conveniences to bo jund in a city.

GRIENAUER, the Great Master 'Cellist, and Madame GRIEN AUER, Superb Dramatic So prano, Coming. The "Grienauer Recitals" to be , given in Bennettsville Monday night, Feb. 0, 1905. This is no ordinary attraction: it is emphatically the most extraoruiuary that bsa ever visited Beunetisville. Herr Karl Grienauer, tho' a young man, ia counted one ot the world's violoncellists, if not the greatest of them ali. Graduated from Vienna conservatory oi music, he at once at tracted attention by his brilliant talents, and became successively, solo cellist, in Turin, Milan, and Berlin. Since coming to America, be has played io our largest cities to the moat critical audiences, and practically everywhere has been acclaimed as the ''greatest of them all." On an appearance in Charleston, S. C., iu 1903, he scored a veritable triumph. Tlr-.se who heard him then determined that be must return, and so the next year be appeared again in Charleston, scoring a triumph measur ing fully up to that of 1903. Not cou tent with hearing bim thus on two successive years, bis Charleston ad mirers would not rest till they secured him this year tor his Third Consecu tive Anuual Dater, tho' they bad to pay a large additional sum to secure him as a single attraction. Madame Grienauer bas made a re markable impression wherever she has appeared. Her fine and strong so Eiano voice is beyond auy ever beard ere. She is a graduate of the finest voice masters in Germany, has studied also under one of the best New York teachers. She measures well up with her distinguished husband. Seats will b? ou Bale for this tho crowning event of the season on Mon day Jan 30. A pucked bouse ?B ex pected. The Grienauers appear in only two South Carolina cities, Charleston and Bennettsville. No one who appreciates a fine opportunity can afford to miss them. HOUSEKEEPER, WANTED. ?^HTANTED a l?dy te superintend a SI a home and look ofter the general management of same.
