ANDERSON PEOPLE ALMOST TIGHT-WADS NOT SUBSCRIBING Other Towns in Different Portions of the SUte Are Outstripping Anderson in Helping Caos*. Anderson'people turned .a deaf ear yesterday to the pleas made through the columns of The Intelligencer for aid in raising the relief funds for the Belgiums, and as a result there were few subscriptions to the cause. Other towns in different parts of South Carolina are outstripping this city and ail of them have made far more liberal contributions than has Anderson. The people of other sec tions have no more money than An derson people, therefore lt is reason able to presume that they are a little more sympathetic than are the citi zens cf Anderson. Local people are all ready and will ing to'admit that the cause is a just one and that some help should be ex tended the people of the foreign countries; that the suffering women and children should bp fed if possi ble;, yet few of them, care tb lend any financial assistance in this direction. The following etc ry from Paris, Prance, tells ot how grateful the peo ple over there are for the aid extend ed by American people: "Pr?parations have been, begun in France to welcome the officers in charge of the relief to be sent to the destitute non-combatants of the war ring nations in Europe by the Rocke feller Foundation. The coming of thc first vessel from America ls awaited with impatience. Assistance is great ly needed and will be very welcome. "Mr. Gabriel Hanotaux, formerly minister of foreign * affairs 'and now president of the National Relief so ciety and of the Franco-American so ciety, wishes to "thank the American public, in the name of these societies, for its sympathy and liberal goneroS i ty. In this'''connection Mr. Hano taux said: " 'It is impossible to conceive the degree and the extent of the misery and suffering undergone by the in habitants of villages which have been occupied by the enemy.' "Mr. Hanotaux has addressed a cir cular letter to all the municipal may ors in the department of tho Aisne asking them to endeavor to ascertain and to i report the. destruction in the various irrealities. Among tho ans wers received is (he following: " 'I am -sorry to be suable to earn' ply with your request for the reason that I joined the colors as a volun teer, and,was compelled to resign tho office of mayor. Thin towri has been completely destroyed. There Is no longer any city hall or any inhabitants to protect Consequently, I. decided that lt was best to leave, ami although, l am more than 50 yearn old I thought that perhaps Franco could make usc of my services." "Mr. Hanotaux quoted this letter as an example pf many received by him He said that although the suffering was acute and a large proportion of the population cf Northern F^ran/se was absolutely destitute and penni less, the patriotic ardor of the people and their faith in the final result were not In the least diminished or j Bhaken." . HOUSE BURNED v THIS MORNING Residence of X T. Snow on North J Fant Street, With Contents, Destroy?*!, The home of Mr. Jas. T. Snow on North Fant street was burned early this mornlag. The fire was discover ed sv Rttle before one o'clock, but Sid gained such headway that hut tie of the household etfects were paved. The origin of Jfa/ fire Ie nsw known. Mrs. Snow stuted to a?, re porter of The Iute'itgencer that tho family had not long retired, and were asleep. When they awakened tho room: was filled with" smoke. Tho building being of wood, burned very rapidly and gave ha chance to save much ort the furniture. The fire de oartmmt made a good run. and soon had two streams pf water playing on the ure, nut there was no chance to extinguish the blase before tue house waa consumed. The house and its contents were in sured, but only partially covering the loss''. The house was a substantial ona, ot air rooms, and was valued at ?bout $2,600. tCOO waa carried on the furniture. WU!

(Continued from Last Week.) i From July 28 to 31! we" stopped In i Luceme, enjoying the wonderful acen-? eiy, tho Attaint city, thc- fine concerts, and a good rest. At one of the con certs, I happened to sit next to Mas cagni, -the- composer. T- didn't know-it j untni that night when* an acquaint- ? ance told me of it.

Shortly ofter ? dinner I rang-and requested to be - shown to the bathroom. The maid asked "When?" "Immediately," I re plied. She went away and s.^jn came back to say that the bathroom wo a i already engaged until tou o'clock and after that there would te no more hot water. "How soon can I get a warm hath In the morning?" "Oh, you can , get a cold bath nt soven and a warm ? onp at ten." We left "-Lucerne at 7 a. m. July 31 j ?for London. We spent two hours be-< tween trains walking about thepretty : city of Basel. After cutting across the corner of Alsace, we spent the after- j noon traversing a ' beautiful French , farming r?gion. Every railway bridge, , tunnel and station was guarded, and . nt Troyes we passed a troop train. We , ?pent tho night in Paris, and pro- , cc?dod to London next.day. by wsw**** n Boulogne end Folkestone. The , w?nthcr waa clear. 'Fdr Uieinext Uiree weeks London was our headquarters. We ylalted the ] principal places of literary and bis- , torte Interest in the city and went to , Oie theatre one afternoon. Between the acta afternoon tea was served.
