DOUBLE WEDDING LAST SATURDAY Some of the most touching love scenes and preparations for nuptial rites and ceremonies, almost natural enough to be true, took place before the moving picture camera of the Magora Film O. now operating here, last week. Many local people are taking part in this Comedy Drama. Misses Louise Duncan and Josie Hughes are taking the leading feminine roles and are ably assisted by Messrs. Roy Fant and Phil Flynn, the young ladies lovers. Mr. J. Gor<ian Hughes takes the part of fathei of the young ladies, and Prof. Flora, the officiating minister. Miss Myra Young, hostess at the garden party, Master Vernon Humphries, as moo. senger, Mr. J. E. Tinsley also does a turn. Among the many who attended the wedding and lawn parties the following can be remembered: Wedding Party: Mrs. W. H. Sar tor, Mrs. Joe Arthur Mrs. Lindsay McNally, Mrs. Laurie Young, Mrs. . McBeth Young, Mrs. Landy Hamey, Mr. Van Buren, Mr. Lindsay McNally, Mr. Floral, Mr. J. Gordan Hughes, Miss Agness Townsend, Miss Carrie Young, Mrs. Dan Wallace, Mrs. Myra i Young, Mrs. W. D. Arthur Mrs. Harold Drew, Mr. Harold Smith. Lawn Party: Miss Minnie Greg- ' ory, Miss Pearl Harris, Miss Ruth : Gault, Miss Agnes Townsend, Miss i Myra Young, Miss Edith Smith, Miss Blanche Garner, Miss Edna Tinsley, i "Miss Carrie Young, Mrs. Macbeth Young, Mrs. Lindsey McNally. Mrs. L. G. Southard, Mrs. Flora, Miss i Julia Flynn, Mrs. H. K. Smith, Mrs. 1 J. A. Brown, Mrs. Dan Wallace, Miss 1 Adeline Miller. The story is a mix-up in the love affair of two young ladies as sisters, i both thinking that the attentions of ; a young man they met at a lawn < party were directed for each. i The young man sends a note to the ] >eiaer sister, but unfortunately the 1 messenger falls off his bicycle and ' soils the note and attempting to clean o it he rubs off the name. The girls both claim the note and when the i young man calls he is certainly in * a predicament over the two young : ladies attentions. i A clever ruse being played by < Florence, the younger sister, is where 1 she gets her younger sister to tell i Elsie that her mother wants her; I Florence then takes advantage of her i sister's absence by making love to i the young man and strolling through l the garden. Elsie sees her and 1 thrftws a look of jealousy and re_ I venge at the camera that the camera < man keeps on grinding ever after the 1 director says stop three times. You will now see in the next scene < that the young man is true to his I first love and sends her some flowers 1 which she received with kisses. Wishing to have Clarence to herself at the . party which is to take place in the i afternoon Elsie gives Florence the roses and tells her that a tyoung man seni mem wimout giving nis name, but will wear one at the party. Elsie sees where she is going to win out in the scheme for Florence is happy with expectations 4of the adventure. Now Elsie is seen looking 1 for a suitable young man and finds < him in Warren King. She puts the : rose on him and tells him to wear it that afternoon at the party. The success is complete for Florence recognizes the rose and accepts Warren's company for a stroll leaving Elsie with her lover who also takes a walk about the beautiful gardens. To Elsie and Florence a surprise is in store for they see behind a tree the newly-made lovers, making love ; as all real lovers do and when about to seal their troths with a kiss, Clar?nce and Elsie rush up and all are joyful over the happy termination. This is followed by a scene where Warren sees his sweetheart's father, Mr. Wright, getting into his auto, but too late Mr. Wright is already in and is gone. Warren follows and as Mr. Wright is about to enter his factory Warren timidly says these words, "Mr. Wright, can Florence and i maKe it a aouDie. iur. wrigni makes some millionaire fatherly ex_ pressions for a minute and then in -a more tenderly way acquires to Warren's request. Clarence, after buying the ring, coming out of the jeweler's, meets Warren, who says he, too must have a ring. They both come out and compare rings. Both are happy. A touch of real comedy is now in order and Mr. Jeweler is there with the goods, rubbing his hands over the fine sale he made. In the engagement scenes: Clarence and Elsie gives us some realistic, action and truly romantic expression where he places the ring. Florence and Warren are not second in this blissful scene, but in their own way give us some real good gingerly acting. As a fitting climax to the story a beautiful wedding scene is shown and the many friends of the couples fol_ low them out of the church and bid them good bye as they get into the autos. Showers of rice follow them as thev leave lostensibly for New York, Paris and London.

While all the Union county boys have and are making successes in life, those who have sought homes in far-distant lands have prospered and are in the communities in which they live considered leaders of men, but there is one whose career we have watched with special interest. This man is Mr. J. Lee Gantt, a son ol Mr. L. J. Gault, one of Union county's most substantial planters, and a brother to MY. Jos. H. Gault. one of Union's leading and wealthiest citizens. Lee Gault was born 33 years ago near Kelton in what is known as the Pea Ridge section, and eight miles from Union. He, preferring home surroundings and environments, has lived in Union county practically al lhis life. His first work after leaving home was in the audi_ tor's office at Union under John G. Farr. From there he accepted a position with the Mutual Dry Goods Company at Buffalo as salesman in the grocery department. From ther? he was promoted to bookkeeper, in which capacity he served creditably and satisfactorily for a number of years, when he was made manager of the concern, where he served acceptably until 1909 when he returned to Union to engage in business for himself, later closing out his business to Mr. J. D. Collins, a wholesale merchant in Spartanburg, to accept a position at Enoree in Spartanburg county as bookkeeper for the mill company store. After filling that position in a very satisfactory manner for some time, he resigned to accent a morn lucrative nnaitinn the Southern railway as auditor on a passenger train, running from At_ lanta to Washington and by his pleasing personality and strictly attentiveness to business h esoon won the confidence and esteem of the road officials, and was considered one pf the most popular and trusted employes of the road, and was much regretted that he was forced to resign owing to his wife's declining health. He then returned to South Carolina and accepted the position that he formerly held at Enoree as bookkeeper, which he filled until recently when he was again promoted to. the respon. sible position as general manager of the Enoree Manufacturing Company store, one among the largest and most successful mill stores in Spartanburg county. His many friends in Union and throughout the county will be glad to learn of his promotion, and one with such exemplary habits and possessed with such excellent business qualifications his friends predict for him a bright and successful future. A Friend. PINCKNEY TOWNSHIP Pinckney Township, May 25.?As I have not seen anything from this immediate section of Pinckney township lately, I thought I would drop a few lines. Of course all are familiar with the extreme dry weather, but I will say that in the last day or two there has been little change in the cotton; it is coming up more in vacant places. The cool weather had more to do with bad stands than the lack of moisture. A great many people say thew have never seen anything like this but they have simply forgotten. During my life the same things have occurred very often. I feel blue sometimes but one of the most foolish things is to grumble aboutfthings we cannot help. In discouraging times like this I have concluded that if everything worked out all right, I would never again be uneasy. Mr. Editor, since some little gatherings of the citizens in different places, especially in the capitol city, Ihave noted a change. We people that have been misled from misrepresentation or prejudice or probably from false ideas, are becoming to consider the circumstances?in other words we are thinking of coming back into the fold again. Of course we fear a "guying" but if that is left off and we can get in quietly, there are a great many of us coming back.

The other agreeing with him and from all appearances, they had been talking "John Barleycorn." They were eating dinner and sat very near me, but were so busy eating and talking they did not see me. One said, "He promised to be hands off in the governor's race, but he failed to keep his promise." While tney were talking I could but think what a predicament one or two or traying his confidence and the news probably more had got him in by bebeing circulated over the State, he was compelled to take the stand he did to call us wandering sheep back to the fold. I have seen great monuments erected to grand and noble men having held high positions, laboring for the best interests of their country and the thought occurred to me that the people were looking forward to their best interests and of the country when they put the best men those deserving praise to represent us, and now, kind reader, I know it is time enough yet, but let us be thinking and considering the best and the most competent men to represent us in all branches, whether they be friends or foes. Our every day existence demands it of us. Pike. PLEASANT WAY TO STOP CONSTIPATION. | Dodson's Liver Tone Takes the Place of Disagreeable Calomel and its Often Dangerous After. Effects.
