It was an occasion die Ungui8hed not only for royal hospit ality and Thanksgiving good cheer, but /or the genuine, hearty enjoyment which the veterans seem to have a special faculty for Unding in all their reunions. It times were bard with them for tbe four years of the war, In looking backward they seem to remem* ber only tho bright side aud are boys together again. Invitations wer? extended by Dr. irby to the 2.'t survivors of Company F, 4th South Caro'ioa Volunteers, Good win's Brigade, of which he himself was first lieutenant.

C In conclusion, let me say nothing t will be loft undone on my part to make ' It oi.o of the most enjoyable occasions that man can havo on this earth. \ Your friend and comrade, I W. C.

Every "Vet" was, of course, ready .vlth a war story, and of the ta bles, which groaned with Thankgiving turkeys and all the good things of the season, it is, of course, needless to speak. The pretties*, incident of tbe day camo, however, at the close of the dinner, when Col. J. W. Ferguson, the former colonel of the regiment, pre sented to tho host, on behalf of his old oomrados in arms, a beautiful silver sorvicc. Col.

The Hume of Dr. Lucas Swept Away by Early Morning Flro. At five o'clock Monday morn ing the residence of Dr. T. C. Lucas, located on East Main Street, was destroyed by fire, to gether with all the household furnishings valued at $2,000, on which, it is understood, there was $1,000 insurance. The house, the property of the Laurens Cot ton Mill Company, was worth about $2,000 and was insured. Dr. Lucas was the only occu pant of the house Sunday night, Mrs. Lucas and their little daugh ter being absent in Columbia, vis iting friends. When he was aroused the whole top of the building was in flames and fire was falling through the ceiling in some of the apartment! It is a mystery how the fire originated as there had been no fire in any of the rooms except the doctor's sleeping apartments for two weeks or more. The alarm was promptly rung in and the fire department re sponded with all possible haste, but the fire had made such head way it was beyond control when the laddies reached the scene. only makes a bad matter wouse. Perbaps you have nevor thought of it, but the fact must be apparent to every one that constipation la caused by a lack of water In the system, and the use of drastic cathartics like the old fashioned pills only makes a bad matter worse.

The Friendly Dozen Entertained b; Miss Bulley?Jas. Leo Wright Sur prises IIIsFrlcud8. Clinton, November 28.?The Thornwcll Orphanage has agair suffered a heavy loss by fire. The Seminary was destroyed 011 Thursday night. A heating plant was being tested and it caught ou the fourth floor from a defective flue. The loss is $6,000, with $1,000 of insurance. Mr. and Mrs. Add Young of Columbia were guests of relatives here last week. The Friendly Dozen met with Miss Connie Bailey Tuesday af ternoon. Each guest was pre sented with a bundle of fagots and requested to tell a story as long as the fagots burned. A de lightful lunch was served in the dining room, where the decora tions were pink carnations. Those present were: Mesdames W. J. Bailey, J. l?\ Jacobs, Jack Young, A. E. Spencer, H. L. Scaife, Thornwell Jacobs, J. A. Bailey, R. Z. Wright, A. V. Martin and C. M. Bailey, Mr. Jas. Lee Wright and Miss Bertha Templeton were married on Wednesday afternoon at the home of the bride at Blackville. The marriage was quite a sur prise to Mr. Wright's friends in Clinton. Messrs. John Brooks, Jesse Vance, Earle Wilson, R. E. Cope land, John Gilkerson, Prof. Jones and Dr. Ellett were down from Laurens Thanksgiving Day to attend the Carnival. Mr. and Mrs. J. W.

Wright was at home on Friday afternoon from three to five o'clock in honor of IUI ?>?-? ?-j Miss Lyl Milam. Miss Martin and Miss Black of Cross Hill spent Thursday with Mrs. James McSwain. Messrs. Arthur Copeland of Columbia and J. C. Copeland of Union were here for Thanksgiv ing. Mr. M. L. Copeland was in town on Friday. To judge from the crowds dur ing the week the Carnival was quite a success. They disbanded here, but the aeronaut will re main in town and have an ascen sion every Saturday afternoon. -"Not enough Democrats," says Tom Taggart, "that is why Judge Parker was defeated" Copeland carries in stock enough shoes to fit everybody. The stock used in Copeland's shoes is good enough for anybody. The style and fit of Copeland's shoes are un surpassed. Hence Copeland can not be de feated in the shoe business. "The One Price Store." Ethel ?. Lanford. "Death loves a shining mark.' And life's mom looked rosy auc predicted a brighter day still. Yet just in the midst of the day'; brightness, God in His infinit? wisdom and gooduess saw fit tc remove from earth one of Hij most beautiful flowers and trans plant it in Heaven to be watered and nurtured with His own pre cious care. On the afternoon of November 3rd, 1904, just before the slanting rays of the setting sun was hid behind the Western horizon, God entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. G. J. Lanford, near L,anford Station and claimed as His own, Ethel, one of their precious chil dren, a beautiful daughter of fourteen summers. Before she had reached her fifteenth birth day she had fallen by the way. Kthel was a noble, sweet girl? intelligent and industrious. She was a great comfort and pleasure to her parents and friends. "To know her was to love her." She was always quiet and unostenta tious. She drew friends to her and fastened them there with cords of love. She had always been so strong and well that it is hard to realize that she is no more. Yet, stricken by a malignant form of typhoid fever, which refused to yield to medical treatment, the brittle stem which held the precious blossom was broke assunder and the soul went back to the God who gave it. All that loving hands and medical skill could do was done for her, yet it availed nothing. Her earthly career had ended? God wanted her to live with him. So we must not murmur nor com plain for we know that He doeth all things well and that some day, sometime we'll understand why she was taken from us, why the bright, beautiful star that had scarcely risen was made to set so soon. Amid a large concourse of sor rowing friends and relatives, she was laid to rest in the qiiiet ceme tery at Lanford Baptist Church, there to await the Resurrection Morn. She has joined others gone before and together they sing in the great choir invisible, and watch for others to come and jojn them. , . only gone on a little before and now she awaits your coming to the beautiful city, not made with hands, eternal in the Heavens. Some day we will meet our friends not changed, but glori.ied. May God bless and sustain you all. The r lin Is falling where they he But the cold, November rain Calls not from out the gloomy Eanh tbo lovely ones agi in. And then 1 think of one who In hor youthful beauty died, The fair, meek blossom that Grow up and faded by my side. In the cold moUt earth we Laid her when the forest cast the leaf, And wo wopt tha? one so lovely Sho.il l have a life so brief; Yet not unmeet it was that Ono like th?t young friends of ours So gentle and so beautiful, should Perish with the flowers.
