$10,000.
The county board of election com
missioners of Chesterfield decided
Tuesday that the election held on
August 13 was illegal. Their grounds,
in full, have not yet been given out
This decision comes as a hard blow
to the prohibitionists, who expected
to see the election sustained by the
board. They will fight It on up to the
supreme court if necessary.
The supreme court Tuesday decid- j
ed the case brought by W- H- Duncan !
, and W. L. Owens against the old
State board of education, of which
Gov. D- C. Heyward wag chairman. ;
The decision bears out the action of
Associate Justice Woods in dismiss-
ilng the injunction proceedings brought
by the two appellants to pi event ifle
State board from establishing a State
depository at Columbia.

man's Christian Temperance Union

Fire was discovered Tuesday after- 1;
noon in the barn of W. H. Hite on
Barnwell avenue in Aiken. The fire
was first seen in a lot of hay and
j quickly spread ove| trie building. In
a few minutes the entire building was
in flames. Before the fire department
arrived the fire jpid spread to the Bap
tist parsonage, which was next to the
barn. The parsonage was entirely
destroyed. The parsonage was not :
.occupied at the time, as Rev. Mr. Mc-
Kin, the occupant, is in New Castle,
1 Pa. The building was a handsome
two-story building and valued at about
$4,500.
The Columbia boys gave Davidson
students an interesting wrestling
bout Tuesday. Jack Crawford and
Jim McCoy, of Columbia, surprised
faculty and* students with their scien
tific exhibition. The first fall went to
McCoy after 18 minutes of fast wrest
ling, the second to Crawford, after
10 minutes, and McCoy got the de
cision on the third, Crawford finding
it necessary to forfeit it, owing to &
cramp in hl B leg. Many holds and
breaks were applauded by the specta
tors, but Crawford's breaking ham-
mer locks and McCoy getting out of
what seemed a certain fall when held
by the scissors hold caused the most
admiration and applause.

Hi before an approaching train,
the little daughter of Mr. Thad Page,
who lives west of Union, near the
Union and Glenn Springs rail-
road narrowly escaped death Mon
day morning. The train was

Just about the time that the engine
struck the cow, billing it Instantly
and carrying It on for about a hun

At 6 o’clock Tuesday morning, MaJ.
John a. Fant, president and treasurer
of the Monarch cotton mills of Union,
and one of Union’s most prominent
men, unexpectedly nassed away. The
news of his death came as a great
surprise and was a terrible shock to
the entire community. For several
months MaJ. Fant had not been In
very good health, but after several
weeks of entire rest and freedom
from business responsibility In the
North, he returned to Unlonlast Wed
nesday, greatly Improved, f$t was
thought, and Indeed seemed to be his
former robust, cheerful self. m> to
Monday evening he appeared nnusu-
ally well and in good spirits. During
the night he was a little uncomfort
able on account of a smothering sen
sation once o r twice. At daylight he
sot np and went Into an adjoining
room, but returned and went back to
bed, after assuring bis wife that there
was no cause for alarm and that she
could do nothing for him. In a few
minutes she noticed hla difficult
breathing and upon going to his side,
saw at once that death had set his
seal upon him.
