CHEST Err.

Lantern, November 26: Married at
the Methodist parsonage Sabbath, Nov
"a, by Rev. NJ. L. Banks, Miss Corrine
McFadden and Mr. w. L. Darby, both
of the Eureka mill community. Mr.
w F. Caldwell resigned his office Fri
day as secretary Of the Chamber Of
Commerce, and he left yesterday for
Bennettsville to take editorial charge of
the Pee Dee Advocate Mr.. j. G. Robin
son will serve temporarily as secretary
Of the Chamber of Commerce. "A
fact which makes the free city delivery
of mail far worse than no delivery, for
our purpose, is that the government Will
not allow the carriers to deliver the
local papers. Any paper mailed at any
other postoffice than the Chester othce
may be delivered, but the Chester pa
pers are excluded. The local papers
are the principal mail received by
many people and they have no doubt
been looking forward with satisfaction
to the time when they should have
their papers delivered at their doors.
IL so they may prepare for disappolnt-
ment. This (Tuesday) morning at
9 o'clock the home of Mr.. and Mrs. H.
w. Hafner was the scene Of a simple
but pretty wedding. AS the thrilling
strains of Mendelssohn's wedding
march were being rendered on violin
and piano by Misses Leila Hafner and
Pryor, Miss Mary Hafner and Mr..
Theodore Tinsley entered the parlor,
and as they stood before the altar OF
ferns, Rev. S. ]. Cartledge, with
sweet and impressive ceremony, unit
ed their lives. The guests, who were
only the immediate families, were then
invited into the dining hall where they
partook of an elaborate breakfast.
Yesterday Mr.. B. d. Refo received
telegram from Col. Coward, superin-
tendent of the Citadel, and another
from his brother saying that his son,
Baron. had an acute attack of appen-
dicitiS, was at the hospital and an i'm
mediate operation was necessary. Mrs.
Refo, who had been visiting in Char
lesion, had left just before her son was
attacked and was on her way home. 1t
was too late for Mr.. Refo to get of
yesterday, and yesterday evening he
received another message that the
operation had been successfully per-
formed, but was not an hour too soon;
also that Mrs. Refo had been caught
by a telegram at Columbia and would
return. Mr.. Refo will await further
news.

HOME THREATENED
Gasoline Stove Came Near Destroy
ing Home of Judge
Sullivan.

The home of Judge Walter s. Sui
Ivan came near being DESTROYED by
nre yesterday at noon. due to a fire
that started from a gasoline stove.
Mrs. sullivan places no blame on
anyone but herself. not even the
stove, which is first class Gasoline
stove and has served her Well for
many years. She was about To start
the fire and did not give sufficient
time for the gas to generate. before
she attempted to light the stove and
the stove or rather the gasoline tool,
fire and blazed clear to the ceiling
of the kitchen. Several men at
tracted by her screams ran into the
sullivan home and carried the stove
to the porch, but here the flames
burst up higher than ever and set
fire to the porch. But the gasoline
soon burned out and the fire that had
been started by the gasoline, was soon
put out and order again restor-
ed. Mrs. Sullivan thinks that had
not the men been so prompt to re-
spond and carry the stove from the
house that the building would have
been destroyed.

town. The ball game on Saturday af-
ternoon between the Glenwood and
Palisade teams was just about as
rotten as it well could be, the score
was "A to / in favor of Glenwood. It
was so one-sided and uninteresting
that the spectators had a hard time
to keep awake. On yesterday after
noon another game was played by the
two teams and again Glenwood won,
this time on a score of 10 to 1. Two
uoorer ball games have not been seen
