Chester, Oct. 1.-Two rather
romantic but doubtless very hap

ported, as having taken place in
this county Sunday last.
Mr.. Alex. Rosbero An old gen..
tleman of about rs years, married
= Miss Panlee, a French lady,
who has resided for severa, wears
past at the county poor house.
She is probably in her SOS.
1t is said that the first time that
Cupid ever made any impression
on her heart was a few years ago
when she met Mr.. Rosboro, after
he had taken up his abode at the
county home. 1t was q long and
happy courtship, and one in
which the suitor was evidently
deeply in earnest.
A recent will of rich relative
left Mr.. Rosboro $500 in money
and suit against the Southern
railway was also gained, and he
forthwith purchased him a home
in the country, surrounded by a
good farm. He pursued his
courtship much more vigorously,
after being released from ab,ecr
poverty, and last Sunday after
noon his second case of love in
life was successfully terminated
by his marriage at the county

Rev. John Bass Shelton had
just finished preaching to the in
mates and was notified that his
services were desired. He per-
formed the ceremony in the pres
ence OF large number of friends
and Mr.. and Mrs. Rosboro, with
feelings akin to new life went
their way rejoicing to their new
home. here, very likely happi-
ness will abound after years of
hard luck, pain and poverty.
The other couple is perfectly
contented to spend the balance of
life in the peaceful and quiet sur.
roundings of the county home.
Mr.. G. w. Hodge and Miss
Clara Hudson have been residing
there for many years, and were
happily married by Rev. B. g.

clare that the flames will subslde

die. This is believed to be the
only casualty.
The fire started in a peculiar
manner. Shortly before midnight
workman lifted the top of hi,
lantern to blow out the light. The
atmosphere was heavily laden
with gas and in an instant there
was flash, followed by a sheet
of flame. The blaze was COM
municsted to a small settling tank
near by, owned by j. S. Corbett.
In an instant derrick adjoin-
ing the tank was enveloped in fire
and with remarkable rapidity the
flames spread to other derricks in
the Hogg-Swayne tract, which
comprises one of the largest Sec

Judy Sanders, colored, was raid
ed by the police Sunday afternoon
and they captured a large lot of
blind tiger whiskey, beer and
wine. The liquor was turned
over to Sheriff Scarboro, and Ju-
dy Sanders WAS arrested for sell
ing liquor in violation of the law.
The woman has long been suspect
ed of selling whiskey and her
place has been raidsd more than
ence. Only few months ago
she was before the mayor and was
sentenced to pay a 6ne Of $50 for
selling whiskey and keeping a dis
orderly house.
Yesterday = colored boy went
to Mr.. Edgar Skinner's house,
near whom Judy Sanders lives,
and presented an order for a pint
of whiskey. Seeing that the or.
der was intended for Judy San
dsrs Mr., Skinner directed the boy
to her house. In q few minutes
the boy came out with the whls-
key. MIR. Skinner notified the
police Immediately, the warrant
was obtained, the raid made and
soon Judy and her whiskey were
in the hands of the police. This
is the first blind tiger that has
