TWO TORNADO CAUSES ; HAVOC IN WEST ^ ' I Lives Lost And Thousands of Dollars in Property Destroyed ROARING WIND BLAST TORE THROUGH TOWN Mary Persons Injured and Building's Wrecked at I Great Bond . Kansas City.?Property damage estimated at hundreds of thousands of dollars, several persons killed and scores injured, was the result of the violent storm which swept central Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota and Iowa last week, according to reports received. Great Bend, Kansas, was the heaviest sufferer. A tornado struck the town, killed two persons, injured more than 30 and wrecked many buildings. The town was plunged into darkness and a drenching rain followed. Property damage there was estimated at $500,000. Hosington and Claflin, towns near Great Bend, felt the effects of the storm but suffered no serious damage, according to late reports. Considerable damage was done, however, in the nearby country. At Derby Kansas, 100 miles southeast of Great Bend, One man was "killed and seven persons were injured by the tornado that struck there a few hours after sweeping Great Bend. A number of persons were injured at Hartford, S. D, and high winds that visited other localities in that State as well as sections of western and. central Nebraska, destroyed farm buildings and damaged hay and grain stocks. Heavy rains accompanied the windstorm in many places. At Pratt, Kan >/ sas, four and a half inches of rain was reported. o Thanksgiving Day And the Orphan.

It has been our annual cus 4 1... 4- ,1.. .. 4l.~ O.. 1.1... 4-1. 4*~1 twin vit tuat uav, ur me oauuaiu lui-j lowing, to remember the orphans. We hope that every reader of these lines will gladly do so. You have a wonderful amount to be grateful for. Put your gratitude to the proof. Send to the Orphanage of your church, your thank-offering. Presbyterian people in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina will remember that they are united in supporting the Thornwell Orphanage, Clinton, S. C., which is the property of those three Synods. The children are all orphans, some three hundred in number. There are 17 cottage homes, each occupied by some 13 to 25 children, with a good motherly woman in charge. The children are regularly in school for forty weeks each year, and are taught some trade or occupation, by which they can earn an honest living. Usually they leave the Home at the age of 1(5 to 18, unless an earlier discharge is found advisable. Their support depends upon the gifts of good men and women. Especially at Thanksgiving times, they ought to be remembered. There are 180 children from South Carolina, 70 from Georgia, and 28 from Florida. The rest came from seven other states Contributions should be sent simply to Thornwell Orphanage, Clinton, S. C. Checks and post-office orders should be sent to the same address. .Remember the Orphan. A lot ot our good people have ex-1 pro.-.sed a desi.-p to make a Thanksgiving lunation to the Orphans. I have arranged to have all provisions shipped free of charge from Conway,1 Myrtle Reach, Aynor, Allsbrook, I-oris and, Tabor.

I . , . , STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST TO ALE SOUTH CAROLINA PEOPLE A small printing plant is being opcrated by patients at the State Hospital for the Insane. It has been brought to the attention of L). C. Hey ward, collector of internal revenue, that some of ;h: manufacturers or wholesale dealers or traveling representatives of tobacco concerns may have unintentionally violated the federal law covering peddlers of tobacco. It has been reported that wholesale dealers and manufacturers have, throuirh their renresenta- 1 tives, sold directly to retail dealers without having their representatives register with the collector of internal revenue as peddlers. Approximately 50 varieties of cotton seed have been distributed during the past 12 years by the United States department of agriculture to farmers interested in securing a variety best adapted to their particular locality. Trouble of a serious nature has broken out afresh at the Rrogon mills in Anderson, S. C., which have been closed for nine weeks, owing to a strike among the operatives and the situation has become tense. Gov. Manning has issued requisition papers on the governor of Tennessee for the return of Thomas M. Davis, who is wanted in Richland county on the charge of failure to support his wife and children. The house of Henry W. Parham, two and one-half miles northeast of Mallory, was totally destroyed by fire last week. A petition asking a recall election for Mayor John F. Floyd and Councilmen C. F. Waller and John 13. Fielder of Spartanburg has been filed with Gov. Manning by citizens of Spartanburg. ' o COPY SUMMONS FOR RELIEF (Complaint Not Served.) STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA County of Horry.

The same quo tation had been used by Col. Roosev^ in a recent published article. "It is not surprising that Mr. I Roosevelt should consult the old tes- | tament rather than the new," said Mr. I Bryan's comment, "because he classes nfl Christ with the mollycoddles, but why BH should the president, a Presbyterian I elder, pass over the New Gospel in which love is the chief cornerstone B and build his defense upon passage lq I the Old Testament, written at a tiffe I when the children of Israel were sur- I rounded by enemies. -H "It is all right for Mr. Roosevelt I to sound the trumpet because all col- I ors are red to him.
