"Statistics show that fully $780,
100000 have been added to the es
tates of those who pinned theiI faith
to fraternal orders. These societies
have become one of the largest re-
sources of the country and by far
the greatest protector of laborers and
people in moderate circumstances.
1t is also shown by statistics that as
fraternalism has increased illiteracy
and pauperism has decreased. This
ondition is manifested, proportion
ately, in small communities just as It
affects the nation and various states.
Lamar will get share of the bone
fits granted along those lines.

The lodge has enjoyed phenome

of the strongest fraternal orders in
the valley. The membership appli-
catioLs now exceed one hundred
During the month of September Mr..
Manning, deputy supreme president,
sent to the supreme lodge 81 new ap
plications, aggregating $5O,6OO in
insurance and Lamar will derive con
siderable benefit from the policies
issued. Mr.. Manning has the follow
ing to say of his order: "If the
members secured last month retain
their connection with the lodge and
do not move away, $4,000 will ulti
mately be distributed in the town re
sulting in the building of new resi-
dences and consequent increase in
taxable property. The assessments
paid by individuals are SO small that
there is no precetible decrease of the
amount of money represented in the
various channels of trade.
Multiply the $4,000 by three
and the amount given indicates the
worth of the Fraternal Union OF
America to the community at pres

Colorado neets Beats All.

A desire to discover first hand the
truth of the amazing stories" they
have heard about the beet sugar re
sources of Colorado has brought
Frank Roderous, editor of the Beet
Sugar Gazette. Chicago, and Alfred
Musy, consulting engineer and one
of the directors of the National Con
struction company, Detroit, to the
beet fields of this state.
Mr.. Roderus' journal is recogniz
ed as the leading periodical devoted
to this industry and he says for his
companion, Mr.. Musy, that he is the
greatest expert in the world. The
latter is II native of France and has
studied the question for twenty-sev-
en- years, having been thirteen years
in America. He smokes pipe and
q mixture of tobacco which proves
him to be connoiseur.

naturally amazed, especially when
we consider the reported heavy ton
mage that you secure here. 1t is for
this reason that we came to see for
ourselves.
II am not surprised that your
average is better than that of the
East, for it is a recognized fact that
the sunshine has more to do with the
secretion of saccharine matter than
the soil. The action, not so much of
the heat, but of the light Of the sun
upon the elements of the air pro-
duces sugar, whereas great deal of
rain lowers the average. But it is
hard to believe that you produce rs
much as the reports say.
Mr.. Musy and Mr.. Roderus stop
ped at Sterling on their way to Den
YER and we're entertained by the citi-
zens. They visited a field where a
farmer was raising beets for fodder,
and the French expert made super
fetal examination of sample by
scraping it. He says it was the first
positive evidence he has received as
to the truth of the stories from Colo
lado. The beets selected we're not
raised for exhibition, but they aver
aged two pounds in weight, which is
double the Eastern average and they
showed at glance that they carried
a high percentage of sugar.-Den-

Some of the Association leaders in
this State predict that the twenty-ffth
State convention, which is to meet in
Columbia, Feb. S-11, will be gather
ing of great power and inspiration. 1t
will, in all probability, be the largest
and most representative gathering OF
the kind ever held in South Carolina.
Charleston is working hard to bring
the banner delegation.
Practically every college and univer-
sity in the State will send delegations
of its strongest men.
Young men from great many com
muniuieS, where there are no assocla-
tions, are planning to go to learn some
thing from this organization which has
demonstrated it's ability to cope with
all problems that effect men.

tends special invitation to the man

cussion relating to practicability OF es-

who are interested in the young men OF
their respective towns are invited TO
attend this meeting.
The convention opens on Saturday
night, February s, in the beautiful new

themselves with much credit, espe-

absent and Tom had to handle the sub
iect alone. He used some comical il
lustrations which added much to the
pleasure of the club. President Cot

in the highest style and was very ap-

The Chiquola Club gave one OF its
interesting and instructing entertain
ments at the Institute hall last night:
The music and recitations were good
and reflected credit on the young ladies'
who took part. The main feature OF the
entertainment was the lecture by ex-
Solicitor Dargan, who pointe1 out the
Injustice done South Carolina by MS
torians and earnestly pleaded for. a
more thorough and comprehenslvee
manner of teaching the history and
geography of this State, and less OF the
grandeur of Egyptian and Grecian civ
ilization. Mr.. Dargan's remarks struck
a responsive chord in the hearts OF
those present and his lectures through
out the State will be no doubt produc-
tive of much good.

On last Saturday when all the town
seemed wrapped in the deepest slum-
bers and none but the urbanites was IN
evidence, there came two young men
who asked permission to place on exhi-
bition in the new postof6ce a mummi-
fed woman who, they said, was a
starved Cuban found by one of the
South Carolina boys while camping in
Cuba during the Hispano-American
war. From all four quarters OF the
town the people came when the call
was sounded by man who, with the
aid OF a horn, produced sound very
much like mixture of baritone, bass
and alto which was unbearable to the
musical inhabitants in the vicinity. 1t
is supposed the lnen made money while
here, but they we're honest enough to
hunt the intends.nt to pay the license.

The governor on yesterday pardoned
Frank NJ. Player, the Williamsburg
dispenser who was convicted nearly a
year ago. Nearly everybody in Will
liamsburg signed the petition. Solicitor
Wilson consented to the pardon and
Judge Watts withdrew his opposition.
Player is about sixty years old and has
a wife and ten or twelve children, and
further punishment would perhaps not
have done him any more good than
what he has already endured and
would have wrought great hardship
upon his family, while the law has been
fully vindicated.

Continues to Increase-Governor

FRANKLIN, Neb., Aug. 2~o.-(special
Telegram.)-The interstate Nebraska and
Kansas Grand Army Of the Republic re-
union is surely a big success. The crowd
today was much larger than yesterday. 1t
is estimated that there were $500 people
on the ground. Everybody has money and
they are spending 1t. The program was
carried out as advertised. The drill given
by the young women was very unique. The
speakers, Congressman A. c. Shallenber-
ger and Judge r. M. Picker, gave very In
teresting talks. The speakers tomorrow
are Governor Savage and Judge Norris Of
McCook.
The ball game today was rather poor.
The Riverton boys had several Of their
best men hurt yesterday, which weakened
them. Score was II to I in favor Of Frank
lin. Tomorrow Hildreth and Franklin play.
The Riverton band furnished the music to-
day. They have . hae organization. The
band from Hildreth is to be here tomorrow
and next day.
The balloon ascension was made by Prof.
Fred Butler, but on account Of the light
wind he did not go over 5000 feet. He
made a fine drop. There was a good rain
this morning, which cooled the atmosphere
and laid the dust. A large attendance is
expected tomorrow.
