still going on and no casualties were
reported. The president said:

Apostrophe to Limburger.

Owing to the fact that the restaurants
went out of business the first of the week,
the editor and staff are baching-that and
other reasous-and yesterday rural sub:
scriber brought US in piece of limburger
cheese, saying that if we didn't care to
eat it we could use it to drive away ants.
Will it drive ants? Will it! Verify, I
say unto you, it will drive dogs out Of a
lanyard; it will drive buzzards away from
a carcass; it will drive herd of buffalo
through burning forest and mule
through barbed wire fence; it will drive
a man crazy if compelled to stay within
20 feet of it's polluted presence; indeed, it
will drive away ants-and uncles, too,
and mothers and fathers, brothers, sisters
and grandmothers, even to the seventh
generation, still there are some who
claim to like limburger.-Freewater Ore,

Some Interesting History Of Bennettsvle Illus
tratins Public Sentiment.
President D. D. McColl, of the Bank OF
Marlboro, tells an interesting bit of his.
tory which was recalled by the sale of a
lot between the public square and the
creek, a few days ago. This lot was
bought in 1922 by man whose name was
Gilpen to open barroom but sentiment
was so strong against an innovation of
that kind that the county commissioners
located and built the county Jail exactly
in front of Gilpen's lot, so as to cut off
access to it except through the creek.
Gilpen then left. The lot was afterwards
sold for taxes and was bid off by Angus
Patterson in 1887 for $25. Patterson went
to Florida and paid no attention to his
lot. A few years ago the old Jail was torn
down and new one built on another
site. Patterson was still living and sold
the lot to Col. G. s. Mccall for 5000. Col.
McCalls estate has now sold it to j. e..
Lewis for 1850 and he is building sales
stable on it.
This illustrates the prohibition senti-
ment that has prevailed here fora century.
Liquor was sold in the county during the
lawless days of reconstruction, but never
has it been legalized..-Pee Dee Advocate.

Residence Near Newbery Entered and Inmates
Struck With Club.
NEwBERRY, Aug. Zone or more bur-
glars entered the residence of Mr.. Jno. G.
Neel, near this place, on Sunday morning
at about 3 3o'clock, and escaped after strik-
ing Mrs. Neel and her daughter with a
club. Nothing was stolen and the inju-
ries to Mrs. Neel and her daughter were
slight. Mr.. Neel was the last one to
awaken, being aroused by his. wife's
screams. The intruder or intruders had
then escaped through the back door.
Mrs. Neel, who was first aroused by a
sound like pistol shot and blow on the
hand, saw one man, but was unable on
account of the darkness to tell whether
he was black or white. A club which
had been cut from pine sapling was
found in the house, and door standing
close to one of the beds was badly shat
tered by blow which Mr.. Neel thinks
was aimed at some one on the bed.
An attempt was made by Sheriff Buford
to procure bloodhounds, but it was un-
successful, and up to this time no clue has
been obtained.
