f IN THREE WAR AREAS
L CRITICAL OPERATIONS
Proceeding in Progress of
Great World War of
4 Nations
THREE FIELDS OF ACTION
%
Germans and British in Flanders,
Russians Offensive
^ in Carpathians.
The general situation in regard to
the war as it stood by the end of last
week was stated in despatches as follows:
^ Military operations of critical importance
now are under way inthree
distinct fields of action.
In Flanders the Germans once
more are engaged with the British,
P Belgians and French in a struggle for
mastery ot the territory near the Yser
canal, where several months ago thcr
occurred what was perhaps the most
m terrible struggle of the war thus far.
In the Carpathians the Russians
again are assuming the offensive in
another effort to push over the mountain
barrier into Hungary.
At the Dardaneles the allies have
succeeded in landing troops on both
sides of tha straits inaugurating a
combined land and sea attempt at Con
- stantinoplc.
^ A British correspondent in northern \
France says the German effort to turn
the left British flank near the Ypres
has failed definitely, although the bat- 1
tie conditions with violence. French 1
military authorities are cautious of
accepting the theory that the German
plan is to break through to the
Knglish Channel, hut they regard it 1
w as patent that such a huge concentrr. 1
tion of troops on a limited front '
means that the present drive is preM

is 1q ?5fening in force.
It,is said the artillery (ire against
the Uel'gian front has largely died
jjiway.
Russian and Austrian official state- '
ments indicate that fighting in the
Carpathians is becoming more intense.
Each side claims to defeated
the attacks of the other, but I
is apparent that gradually the activ- '
ity is spreading along greater sec- <
tions of the battle line. Military ob- <
servers at Petrograd say more decis- 1
five operations than have occurred '
hitherto are expected shortly. '<
The Dardanelles situation remains I
obscure, although it is apparent the I
French'have made some headway with 1
their landing operations. The Paris
vvnv office has announced the canture 1
of Kum Kaleh, on the Asiatic .vide J
The Turkish government, although rc- 1
4 porting the repulse of the landing forces
in some cases, does not claim that '
in every instance the Turks have been 1
^ unable to drive them back.
Italy still is debating whether she 1

ODD INSURANCE
CASE IN COURT
Judge Smith Rules Pastor Not
Agent For Mail Order
Concern.
United State District Judge H. A.
M. Smith signed an order last week
in which he sets aside the service of
summons by the trustees of the Dillon
Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, upon the Rev. A. J. Cauthen,
pastor of that congregation, arising
from an effort on the part of the Dillon
trustees to secure service upon
the National Mutual Church Insurance
Company of Chicago, defendant
in action recently brought by the
above mentioned board of trustees.
The case came before Judge Smith
from the State court, Dillon county.
The facts appear as follows. The
manager of the defendant corporation
which maintains a mail agency,
communicated with the Rev. Cauthen
in the matter of insuring the Diion
Methodist Episcopal Church, South.
Rev. Cauthen took the matter up with
his trustees, who accepted tr?e company's
offer for insurance of the
church building and parsonage.
The pastor wrote the letter of acceptance,
and according to the allegation
set forth in the complaint,
mailed January 5, 1915.
On January 6th, 1915, the Church
burned down. The letter of acceptance
was en route.
On January 7, the Church notified
the Chicago company, contract for
which policy had been consummated,
asking for an adjustment, which was
not forthcoming.
In order to secure service on the
company, which must be accomplished
in South Carolina, and at an apparent
loss to locate an agent, the
trustees attempted to make the pastor
agent. Judge Smith has, however,
ordered that service of summons
on tlie Rev Cauthen is not service of
summons upon the defendant, nor
upon any odicer or agent thereof.

Reformers and Skates.
The roller skate is "coming back."
It never really went out, as far the
children arc concerned. Now however
1 _ 1 i * -
young lucues nave taken it up?not in
skating rinks, by the way, but in the
open air,?for exercise and fun on the
sidewalks and the smooth pavements
of the city streets. On any fine evening
on the best and most exclusive
streets in the residence districts of
Chicago, groups and couples of girls
from 18 to 22 may be seen gliding
along over the smooth surface of the
walks. The fad has struck many of
tlie smaller places in different parts
of the country and already the village
kill-jolys are protesting and calling
for laws to prohibit skating on the
sidewalks. It was ever thus. No
sooner does youth find a new way of
amusing itself?no matter how innocent?than
some long-faced, vinegar
blooded reformer is out with a protost.
and a demand that the young'
people he presented with the alternative
of abandoning their fun or becoming'
criminals by the infraction of a
prohibitory ordinance. There was at
one time a well-grounded prejudice
against skating* rinks. These places,
nowadays, arc usually so well conducted
that they are comparatively
safe. Hut ther can he no just objection
to the young girls bringing the
bloom of health to their cheeks by
such beneficial exercise as roller skating
on the sidewalks of their own
home town and in company with the
same girls with whom they associate
at other times. Let the reformers
purchase roller skates and use them.
It will work off some of the bile and
give them a brighter outlook on life.

JOHN BUNNY SUCCUMBS.
Moving Picture Comedian Dies at
His Home in Brooklyn?Was 52
Years of Age.
New York,?John Bunny, whose antics
as a moving picture comedian
made millions laugh died at his home
in Brooklyn last week. He had been
ill for three weeks from a complication
of diseases.
Members of his family were with
him when he died. For a week he apparently
had been on the mend.
A strenuous month of work, it is
believed, caused the breakdown which
resulted in his death.
John Bunny was 52 years old. He
had been before the footlights twenty-nine
years before he entered the
moving picture field four years ago.
He had leading roles with many oldtime
stars, among them Annie Russet.
He had attained country-wide
popularity as an actor before he
achieved his greatest success on the
screen. Mr Bunny was born in NewYork
city of English parents, educated
in Brooklyn in the public school
and was a clerk in a general store until
he went on the stage at the age
of 15. In the moving picture world
he was regarded for a time as the
country's leading comedian and was
said to be receiving more salary than
the President of the United States.
He will be buried in Brooklyn.

OBITUARY.
On Sunday morning, April 11th,
1915, near the hour of three o'clock,
the death angel visited the home of
Mr. A. W. Barnhill and took from
him his loving wife, Lillie. She was
d4 years and 4 days old. She had been
almost helpless for two years. She
bore her afflictions with patience and
fortitude. She seemed to be willing,
ready and waiting for the summons
to come. In early life she connected
herself with the Missionary Baptist
Church at Bayboro, where she remained
a member until the time of
her death. She leaves a husband, six
children, a mother, one brother, two
sisters and a host of friends to mourn
the loss, but while we mourn we feel
that it is her gain.
Gone to rest, my precious Sister,
Here no more I'll see your face
But we'll meet again in Heaven,
When we've run life's ruirtred race.
We miss "her when the morning dawns
We miss her when the night returns,
Wo jn)i?s her here, we miss her there
Dear sister, we miss you ever;,'where.
It was very hard to give her up, but
we feel that she would not bo back on
this sinful earth if she could.
We could see no trace of the sting
of death as she lay in her casket. She
was laid to rest in the Bayboro cemetery
to await the resurrection morn.
Lillie, thou art gone and left us
And our loss we deeply feel,
But 'tis God who has bereft us
He can all our sorrows heal.
1 can't forget my sister
But love her more and more,
Such love draws us nearer and nearer
To yonders shining shore.
She is an angel in Heaven,
Safe in the Shepard's fold,
And awaits us at the portals
Beyond the gates of gold.
Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep,
From which none ever wakes to
weep.
Her Loving Sister,
DOCIA COOK.

BONSAL SYSTEM
SECURES BRANCH
Georgetown and Western
Nnally Transferred to a
New Company.
Florence, April 80.?It is understood
that the Georgetown & Western
railroad today passed into the hands
of the Bonsai system. This deal has
been in contemplation for a long time
and its consummation means a great
deal for the development of the section
of the country through which
the Bonsai roads run. It puts under
one management a system of roads
from Hamlet, N. C. and from McBee,
which will soon be a road from Monroe
through the leading towns of Eastern
Carolina to Charleston, and favorable
schedules and accomodations
may be secured for the travelling and
business public over these lines.
Mr. Graves, Mr. Hancock, and Mr.
Bonsai passed through here yesterday
en route to Georgetown to complete
the transfer of the Georgetown &
Western to tho Carol inn. Aflnntw- X
Western.
It is very probable that the passenger
schedule into Charleston and a
schedule from Florence to Georgetown
will soon be put into effect and that
Florence will have that very much
desired morning train from Poston,
returning in the afternoon, which has
been asked for and virtually promised
by the management of the C. A. &
W.
The new road shortens the distance
from Georgetown to Charleston by 10
miles. The property transferred consists
of 40 miles of road from George
town to Lanes, the line from Andrews
to Poston, the old South Carolina road
from Poston through Mullins to Hamlot

and a place to sleep at night. To turn

to get a tender smile from a youngster
or a gal, to grin with them that's

weep to never mind my enemies and
like my friends a heap, to never hurt
