NEE BANK BEGINS BUSINESS
Opened Its Doors Friday?Something
about the New Bank.
The Wee Nee Bank, Kingstree's
youngest financial institution, made
i its bow last Friday, having temporary
quarters in the Carolina Furniture
Co's store. Almost eveYy citizen
of Kingstree knows that the traditional
name applied to the beautiful
stream that glides gracefully
through the borders of our town by
the Indians was "Wee Nee," which
in the native tongue is said to mean
"black", hence Wee Nee river in
their language meant Black river as
we know it today. It was to perpetuate
this poetic appellative and at
the same time give the bank a short
and striking name that influenced
the promoters to christen the baby
bank the Wee Nee.
The bank's quarters are at present
somewhat cramped, but it will soon
have its new home completed, with
everything arranged for comfort and
convenience. Although the opening
day was intended to be purely formal,
being unheralded and known
only to those directly concerned,several
thousand dollars was received
as deposits and a pretty good start
made in loans and discounts. A
foundation for permanency has been
laid in the installation of an ElyNorris
steel, burglar proof safe,with
time lock and other equipment of
the very latest type. This safe ranks
with the Victor and several others
as the most approved models of the
ideal burglar proof safe. The bank
has also installed the Wales adding
machine, model 1910, than which
there is no better on the market.
The new bank starts out 'midst
favorable conditions on every hand
and wili doubtless prove an active
and potent factor to aid in building
up Greater Kingstree.
Tbose Pies of Boyhood.

boyhood. No pies now ever taste so
good. What's chaged? the pies? No.

up by Electric Bitters of all organs
of digestion?Stomach, Liver, Kidneys,
Bowels?Try them. They'll restore

CAME TO BLOWS. . i
Fight in Lake City Growing Out j
of Annexation Controversy.
Scranton, July 4:?Last Saturday
at Lake City while Mr Charlie ,
D Shaffer was in the store of'
Messrs Sauls, Baker & Co, he was
assaulted by Mr P D Cockfield. Mr
Shaffer was interviewed later and j,
stated that he ^vas not expecting |
anything of the kind, as he went to1,
1 Lake City to do some shopping and j ]
did not consider that he had done any- j
j thing to cause such treatment. From ,
i what we can gather the assault grew
out of statements made by both
parties relative to the proposed annexation
of a part of Williamsburg to
Florence county. Mr Shaffer came
over to Dr Lynch's office for exami
nation and medical treatment, and
was found to be slightly bruised. He
states that he offered 110 resistance.
We, the originators of the annexa- 1
tion movement, do not approve of '
such actions, and can only hope that |
we may get justice on the day of the 1.
election on the question of annexa-1.
