The Berkeley County Bible Society
by its colporteurs has visited 1914
families in Berkeley County and found
I69 families, or 10 per cent, without
Bible. We need money to complete
the canvass and do as we have done,
place a Bible in every family that has
none.
Every individual who learns to love
his Bible makes better citizen. Will
it not pay you from a business point
of view to further this cause by con-
tributing at least one of 500 shares, at
81 each, to raise the amount needed ?
Please send OF hand your money, or
your promise, to P. f. Deatrick, Treas
urer. The same will be acknowledge
ed through the press. While love of
country is our Nations safety, love of
the Bible and its principles is the
foundation of all we hold dear. The
work of canvassing should be done at
once and it will require $500 to do it.
Do not let this enterprise fail for want
of one dollar from you. Enclosed
please find envelope addressed for
your contribution

\ Fine Show.
One of the finest companies which
has been here for many years was the
Burglar Co, which exhibited at the
New Opera House on Saturday night
last, November II. The audience was
not near as large as it should have
been. All the characters were very
fine in their respective parts. Miss
Marie Falls as Mrs. Lewis, the burg
lars wife, took her part splendidly, her
acting being fine. Mr.. Walter D.
Green, as William Lewis, the Burglar
was without doubt one of the finest
characters in his line we have ever
seen. Mr.. Fred GARNER as a law
student plead his side of the case to
perfection. Last but not least by any
means was Little Lottie Briscoe, as
Editha This is the grandest child
actress ever in this city, her charac-
ter being very difficult and especially
for a child. She was not at all scared
but took her part to perfection.

There was a great deal of Complain

Opera House on Tuesday night last,
during the rendition of Pawn Ticket

the hall at all, people were shivering
all around. This is a shame and
should not occur again, Manager
Lambert has some fine shows at his
place and the public demand better ac-

management is altogether to blame,
but do think something should be
done to make the temperature Of the
Opera House more comfortable.

One sweet voice has fed,
One fair brow the grave has shaded :

With glad spirits, hymns of love.
She has gone to Heaven before US,
But she turns and waves her hand,
Pointing to the glories DER us,
In that happy spirit land.

MCASEY KICKED OUT.
A Somewhat Sensational Scene at
the Statehouse.
VAN PRATHER LOSES HIS TEMPER.

He knocks superintendent McCasey
or His Chair and as He Retreats
from the Room Kicks Him Several
Times
Superintendent ]. FL. McCasey of the
insane asylum, was unceremoniously
kicked out of the state auditors office
about o'clock yesterday afternoon by
Auditor Prather.
Some time ago McCasey had told
Prather a disagreeable and scandalous
story about the conduct of Mr.. and Mrs.
/. w. Pack, which implicated w. s.
Wait, a member of the state board of
charities. Prather told Wait and he
went at once to McCasey and demanded
an explanation McCasey denied having
told Prather anything.
Yesterday McCaSey made an appoint
ment to see Prather and talk the matter
over. He came into the office yesterday
afternoon and waited until Prather had
finished conference with Attorney Gen
eral Little. McCasey then went into the
room and just what passed is not known,
bat Prather says that McCasey denied
having told him anything about Wait.
Prather then struck McCasey with his
fist. knocking him from the chair to the
floor. McCasey got up and Prather or
dered him from the ROOM McCasey
CELEBRATED his movement by kicking him
several times until he had passed through
the door into the corridor.
DR.. McCasey is large, powerful man,
and Prather is only of average size, but
he made no resistance whatever to
Prather's onslaught.
Auditor Prather talked about the affair
to JOURNAL reporter this morning. II
deeply regret" he said, that this trouble
should have occurred. / knew McCasey
was coming and had determined to con-
troll my temper, but somehow it got away

DIR. McCasey's story as told to a Jour-
| NAL reporter is as follows: Il went
into the auditors office and was
talking to Mr.. Mackey, the assistant
| auditor when Attorney General Little
! left the room where he had been talkin g
! to Mr.. Prather. Prather then called to
me, Come in, DOCTOR / went into his
room and left the door open. He told
me to shut the door. We then had a
little private talk about something not
connected with the asylum, and he or
| dered me out of the room. / said, sAll
right. I will CO. and he grabbed a
weapon of some kind from his desk and
started toward me. While [ was at the
door he struck at me and hit me light
blow, but did not hurt me. or course,
you know he was in his own office, but
| he wouldn't have dared to touch me if he
