SUMTER'S CHANCES
roH \ GOVERNMENT BUILDING
ARE GOOD.
s.eycr Dick Has Returned From
os:-Congressman Levers
Hard work.

Mayor George w. Dick has return
ed from a trip to Washington where
he went in the interest Of Sumter, and
10 represent the Game Cock City in
is. .cadeavor to obtain government
guiding. It is a practically assured
fact that Of all the cities in the State
seeking appropriations for this pur-
pose that but two Of them will secure
the buildings, therefore, with so much
competition IN the field, Mayor Dick,
VINO is ever on the alert to Sumter's in
terest, deemed it expedient to make
a visit to the national capitol in order
that he might have a personal inter
view with those in authority and pow
er.
Ellis have been introduced in the
House for public buildings at the fol-
lowing places, with the amounts ask
ed for: Anderson, $4,000, introduced
by Mr.. Aiken; Greenville, $4,000, in
troduced by Mr.. Johnson; Chester,
100000, introduced by Mr.. Finley;
Gaffney, 500, 900, introduced by Mr..
Finley; Sumter, 100000. introduced
by Mr.. Lever; Aiken, 100000, intro
duced by Mr.. Patterson; Greenwood.
100000, introduced by Mr.. Aiken;
Beaufort, s125,OO0, introduced by Mr..
Patterson. 1t is understood that these
amounts will be cut down one-third
in cases where appropriations are
made.
Mayor Dicks refuses to say with
whom he has been in conference while
in Washington, except with Congress
man Lever, for he rightly thinks that
it would be inexpedient and harmful
to the interest of Sumter to publish
these important facts to the other ci-
ties of the State that are fighting US
for all they are worth. He was, how
ever. lavish in his praise of our con-
gresham, VINO ne declares - uieH ms
in his efforts for Sumter, and said that
he even got out Of mis- bed one night to
help him, in his efforts to get the public
building. He knows personally every
man in every department of the gov
ernment, and can get information with
amazing quickness and accuracy.
Mayor Dick is very sanguine in his
hopes for sumter's success in This
contest and expresses the belief that
an appropriation for a government
building in Sumter will be made this
year. He will return to Washington
again in about two weeks

Following the introduction of the

THE PARLOR.
EVELYN CABLE.


The American parlor is thing of
the past, according to architects, saws
the Cleveland "Plain Dealer" No
more will there be room reserved
for State occasions, such as the receiy-
ing of formal calls, the visit of the
minister and for weddings and funerals.
We never take the parlor into con.
slderation any more,'' said a Cleve-
land architect recently. "The parlor
is merged into the living room. The
good old fashioned parlor, which was
held in so much reverence in the old
days, has no place in modern archi-
lecture. -
1.-The demand is for a large living
room in smal il house, together with
a dlning-1oom and kitchen. In a lar
ger house there is usually large liv-
ing room, library, 'den, dining-room
and kitchen.
Il had client yesterday. who de-
sired to have reception room or par
lor not connected with the living room
lie decided later to. have a sort of
reception room in connection with the
hallway.
when the parlor idea began to lose
ground we did not make radical
change, but reduced the parlor to a
small reception room, isolated from
the others, where formal calls could be
received. Now we make no provision
for the parlor.
"In these days the reception rooms
do not have to be closed only to be
opened On the occasion of the visit of
the family minister or the physician"
There may be many who will regret
the passing of the old fashioned count
ry parlor, with all it's memories of
visitors, courtship and occasions
watch left impressions which have not
been eradicated by the strenuous age
Of today.

Unions Consider Politics.

STREATOR, Ill.,, Oct. l6.-The
question of forming an independent pc
litical body is the chief subject of dis
cussion before the twenty-fourth an
nual meeting of the Illinois State Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, which opened here
today.
Among other important matters to b.,
considered is the establishment of tho
initiative and referendum principle il
city affairs by act of the municipa
councils, without waiting for action by
the state legislature; and the adoptio,
within the federation of labor of tn
optional initiative and referendum.
1t is likely that the federation will
decide to call a state conference OF
non-partisan unions and organizations
and individuals to promote the estab
lishment of the initiative and referen
dunn in municipal, state and national
government.

in 1.-The Strength of the Weak" new
modern play by Alice NJ. Smith and
Charlotte Thompson, is a wonderful
actress in many respects and is des-
tined ito become one of the represen-
tative women stars of the American
stage. For years she has been the
idol of the far west and 1t Is said the
mere announcement of her engage
ments there is sufficient TO crowd the
theaters at every performance. Her
first New York appearance was made
at the Liberty theater last spring in
THE Strength of the Weak" The
critics were disposed to receive the
western favorite with doubt and skep-
ticism, but before the curtain fell on
the final act, they were convinced
that a genius had entered their midst,
and the entire New YORK press was
a unit in praise of her remarkable
emotional powers, and charming nat
uralness. The play ran for $50
nights, and Miss Roberts is now un-
der contract for at least four months
on Broadway each season.

"oId Clothes Man, Dec. 2s.

James K. MacCurdy, the popular
actor, in his play, "The Old Clothes
Man" is making a big hit en- tour.
The popular actor portrays the Pc
culiar character, Solomon Levi, the
old clothes vendor, most cleverly. The
drama is simple and the events fol-
low in natural sequence with great
effect. The changes are rapid and
while surprising are not mystifying.
The star has surrounded himself with
a strong company, and the piece fur
nishes an excellent vehicle for the
display of the favorite.
The special effects are the Saliva
ton Army doing its good work, the
marriage in the snow, and the sensa-
tional "Yiddish twist" in which Mr..
MacCurdy illustrates its use in place
of the jui-jitsu, the japanese meth
cd of self-defense.
Mr.. MacCurdy is being featured in
the above attraction under the direc-
ton of Rowland & Clifford. The pro-
duction, with its special scenery and
a competent cast, will be seen here
