to sufficiently nourish both body and

For all such child: en we say with

McLaurin Complains of McMaster's
Inquiring Into His
_ ^
insurance uperations.
^ Gov. Manning sent the following
letter to Fitz Hugh McMaster, insurance
commissioner, and John L. McIiixurin,
State warehouse commissioner:
"I am daily receiving inquiries
from all parts of the State asking me
how fire insurance can be obtained
under the existing laws, and in view
of the withdrawal of certain of the
com panies.
k "The public is deeply interested and
Bk * ia entitled to any assistance that can
k given. I desire this information in
Wf ' Irder that thoy may make their business
arrangements. I ask that you
j will write me where and how . this insurance
can be obtained."
Replies were received from Messrs.
i McMaster and McLaurin.
Mr. McMaster submitted a list of
18 companies, 12 of which he believed
would continue to write insurance in
South Carolina, and a list of ."7 'mutual
fire insurance companies .
Mr. McLaurin replied that the firm
of Samuels, Cornwall & Stevens of
New York had given him assurances
V that they could handle the situation.
He gives his reasons for the high insurance
rates. He also takes Mr. McMaster
for task for inquiring into the
activities of Mr. Stevens and another
representative cf the New York firm
on the occasion of their recent visit
t<> Columbia.
At a meeing of the executive coma.
mittee of the Scuth Carolina Warehouse
association, the Laney-Odum
arti-compact law was unqualifiedly
indorsed.
Rouco of the blacksmith, whose helper
he was, starts to adjust a new linchpin^
Blair Stanley, within the darkened
,!shop, for he half expected recognition
by some one, saw Esther an
Esther shrank back from the window
at. sight of I.like.
I,uke, in turn, was busy at bis work
at the wheel and gave no attention to
I the passengers except one, an Kng*
/ lishman with side whiskers, who hung
out of the coach and annoyed him with
foolish questions.
When Inike. came into the shop for
tools Blair drew him to one side and
whispered: "There is some one In that
coach who will ruin our game with
Arthur Stanley. You know what to
# dot"
,Luke had a dim remembrance of the
L English lawyer, and not having seen
' Esther in the conch, deemed Blair rem
f erred to that pestering individual.
I,like nodded grimly and replaced the
broken linchpin and called to the driv|
er, "It's all right," grandly waving aside
L the driver's proffer of "two bits," for
Blair had paid for the work with a
twenty dollar bill.
1 ^ Down by the rugged roast line thirty
r* J mites away i^uaDba was fighting the
fight that is tlie true fisherman's delight
with some great and uiimc fish,
and had forgotten the pestiferous jK?liean
Minting boldly near.
Far away along the crest of the
mountain, beside a precipitous dizzying
declivity the broken linchpin does
Its work. The wheel comes off and
spins away, the coach topples over, the
> tongue snaps off short, and the great
swaying .vehicle falls over and rolls
and gathers momentum as It rolls,
while Ksther and the IOnglish lawyer
huddle in its groaning interior, spun
round and round with the rolling coach,
too terrified to shriek.
And then the coach strikes a great
bowlder and smashes as an egg would
smash, A spurt of dust, and then stillness.
' From tragedy to comedy-drama the
distance is thirty miles. On the rocky
* seashore Quabba lands* his quarry, a
great, quivering tish. Caught in its
gills, and partly hanging from its
month is 11 ehntn of !iiifliin<>
ship, and from it dangles the diamond
from the sky.
And then the great white peliean
swoops down and bears off the fish and
the great glistening jewel?the diamond
from the sky is no longer the
diamond in the sea!

Baptist Work in the Canal Zone.
! Southern Baptist were the first
Christian denomination in America to
enter upon mission work in the canal
zone after it became American soil,
their work beginning in 1905. Before
that time the people were largely
given over to superstition and immoraility.
Rev. J. L. Wise opened
the work and has heen in charge ever
since.
The two important centers are at
Colon on the Atlantic side and Balboa
Heights at the Pacific terminus of the
canal. At colon the Baptists have a
negro church with 250 members. They
arc doing good work with Rev. I
Stephen Witt as pastor, who also has
charge of the colored work at Gatun.!

:rench Believe Attempt to
Carry Verdun Has Seen
Defeated.
JNES NOT 3R0KEM
IN VITAL PLACES
?rtyich ftocovery oT Ooi'beaux
Woods an Important
Achievement.
Pari \?The situation a' Verdun ?l
regarded as much batter, from the
French viewpoint, as a result of rerent
fighting. Tho public is greatly
heercvl by reports of successful resistance
on tho part of the defenders
it the fortress.
Notwithstanding an ornormous expenditure
of ammunition and unstinted
sacrifice of life the Germans ha\e
failed to bend the blue line.
The inference dvawn by the general
public is that the German wave has
advanced an far as is in its power
without further wastage on a largo
scale, which the German general staff
hesitates to make, with four army
corps already put out of action in the
struggle of IS days.
Exhausted by three days of violent
efforts, the assailants called a halt to
replenish the depleted ranks of infancy.
The IVench took advantage of
the respite to sweep out the Germans
still remaining in Corbeaux weed, and
in this effort were almost sue TssfuL
The renewal of heavy lighting cast
of the Mouse attended by a series of
interest once more on this portion of
the front.
A good road runs through the
gieatly sloping ravine up to the plateau
before Douaumont, possession of
which would enable the attacking
forces to take the defenses in the
flank. Massed infantry, well support
ed by artillery, struggled hard to win
the famous position, but the French
wore able to hold off the assailants
and at the same time to deal with attacks
from the village of Douaumont*.
in tue YYoevre me Germans unt not
attempt to pursue their actions further.
ShockM of Infantry.
The great successes in battles up to
the present have been gained by
means of violent shocks delivered by
fresh and especially prepared masses
of infantry, and have generally beea
achieved rapidly. Of such a character
was the German attack on Verdun,
which smashed itself against the
French defenses on February 26. The
Germans then began a series of battles
on small fronts. One day attack
was made on the extreme left from
Bethincourt to Goose Hill, on another
day a blow was struck at the extreme
right, at Frenes, and again at Douaumont.
All these were genuine attacks
carried out bv masses of tenon*
pable of undertaking serious actions.
French military observers are at a
loss to explain the object of those assaults
as it is believed there is littio
probability that they will have grave
consequences for the defenders. The
important question is whether things
will go on this way, or whether there
will be another great attack.
Not often in the battle have the
French infantrymen had the order to
advance. When they did receive it
they showed that their offensive spirit
had lost nothing by being held in.
James Reed, a negro of advanced
years, was found dead near Fairvicw
church in Oconee county. He was
well to do and was liked by the white
people, and there was no foul play.
He died from being drunk and suffering
from exposure.
