"In His Name"


(For the Kings Daughters.)
Long I sat and gazed upon it,
Pondering all it meant to me,
Just a tiny cross of silver,
Yet badge of royalty.
On it's face the mystic letters,
I. H. M. to me did bring this
Bright message, Wear this emblem
+ AS a daughter of the King"
For what ever is your station,
Having naught of wealth or fame.
Now you are of the royal household
Pledged to serve "In His Name
1t may be a cup of water,
Or a word of comfort said,
To a poorer, weaker sister,
Or soul to Jesus led.
"In His Name" shall be the watch
word,
Whatever you may give or do,
And reward that waits such service
He, the King, will give to you.
Heavenly Father, guide and bless
them, -"
In the work that they may do,
Hold them close these living
Daughters;
Help them ever to be true.

Went to Bamberg's Help.

Bamberg telephoned over here
Thursday night. for the loan of one
thousand feet of hose with which
to fight the fire then raging over
there. After consulting with Mayor
Dukes, Mr.. T. o. S. Dibble, Chief
of the local fire department, Went
over in an automobile with $50 feet
of hose, they deeming it unwise to
let more than that amount Of hose
be taken from the city. Orangeburg
was glad to be in a position to aid
her sister town, but we would ad-
wise our friends over there to keep
their fire hose a little more handy.

BIG BAMB|E!RIG FIRE
COTTON on PLANT PRACTICAL
LIZ WIPED OUT.
Two Freight Cars and About Twenty
five Bales Of Cotton Also Destroy
ef-oyercome by Heat.

Bamberg. Nov. 19.-Another dis,
astrous fire has visited Bamberg and
this afternoon the splendid plant OF
the Cotton Oil Company, at this
place, is in ashes.
At about half-past twelve o'cloch
today fire broke out in one OF the
presses of the ginnery. How 1t go'
there no one knows, but, the gins and
presses being in motion, the flames
spread to every part of the build
ing in the twinkling Of an eye.
The distress signal was sounded
by the whistle and the fire bells
sounded the alarm, but before as
instance could be rendered the whole
,ginnery was in flames, and the heat
was so intense that no one could
approach near enough to the build
ing to combat the fire or even - re-
move several bales of cotton belong
ing to patrons Of the ginnery which
lay in front of the buildings.
These were consumed together
with the ginnery. From the ginnery
the flames leaped to the seed house,
thence to the office building in one
direction and the hull house in
another, and thence to the oil mill
and finally to the meal house, all
of which were completely consumed.
The only building Of the plant
left standing is a small house used
for storing seed cotton. Three oil
tanks, containing several thousand
gallons Of oil, also escaped destruc-
Gion, though it looked for a long
time as if an explosion would occur
any moment.
A side track from the Southern
Railway is built out to the mill.
On this two cars-one loaded with
coal and the other with seed-were
destroyed.
During the fire Mr.. G. Moye Dick
inson, assistant manager, came
overheated and fell to the ground
unconscious. He was Immediately
attended to by friends and pnysic-
ians, but came near losing his life
The loss is one of the heaviest that
mas ever visited Bamberg, and there
is serious doubt as to whether or
not the plant will be rebuilt. 1t
Is estimated that the loss on build
ings, machinery and stock is not
less than $4,000, while the insur-
ance is now thought to be only
$4,000.
Mr.. w. M. Brambham, the presi-
dent and manager, was at Denmark
when the fire occurred, but came
In by private conveyance this after
noon and is using every means pos
Sible to make the salvage on meal
and seed as great as possible. He
has been eminently successful in
managing the mill, and it is greatly
regretted that this disaster has come
upon the company just at time
when the prospect seemed brightest
for a. profitable year, p
The Cotton Oil Company also owns
q plant at Denmark which is ope :
ated under the management of MIR.
Brabham. Whatever seed is saved
from this fire will probably be ship
ped to that place and crushed. Sew
eral partons of the ginnery lost some
cotton that had been left at at the
gin, and on which there was no in
surance-twenty or twenty-five bales
having been burned.
The heaviest loser was an industri-
Gus colored man, named Kelly Will
liams. He had six bales at the gin.
and only one was saved. The loss
falls heavily upon him.

AUDACI0US COSTUMES ARE
 WORN BY PARIS WOMEN

Paris. Nov. 2S.--It is many years since such audacious costumes as those now being worn were seen in Paris. Ladies of fashion have taken as their model Mime. Fallen. the, famous Di- reetoire beauty who, it Is alleged. in her desire to preserve the contour of the ideal figure. had the materials of her dresses gummed on her body.
 Although the DirectoiFe costume caused much comment when it appear. ed last summer, it might be termed retiring compared with some of the latest novelties. such as the robe paR- taion". and "corset pantalon,V both of which terminate in tight-fighting eu- lottes underneath the dress.
 The desire of the smart Parisienne today is apparently to appear as desh- ablliee az possible. One result of the introduction of these scanty costumes is that there 1t formerly took about eighteen yards of material to dress a woman. today five yards sufilce. Prices however, show nd similar shFinka6e. One firm in Paris, whose customers are speciality of 'cotton-net blouses trim med with a little silver lace at the throat, for which the charge is @s0.
 A walk in the Champs Elysses or the Avenue du Bois in these days shows that most women are buried be- meath enormous fur todues. A whole fox, with the head and tail. is employ ed in making some of these, which come right over the forehead. A large feather stands out on each side. One hundred dollars is cheap price for one of these hats.
 The jewels most in vogue are dia- monds with invisible mounts and plat mum settings that can hardly be seen. The old fashion of long drop" or "iustre' earrings which were In favor in the time of Marie Antolnette un- der the name of brignoIets. is coming in again. The latest novelty in pend ants is of Egyptian work. with scar abs mounted in gold. Precious stones for feminine adornment are now being cut with nat surfaces instead of fla cets.

ANDREW FISHER, LABOR
 LEADER, IS TO FORM CABINET

Melbourne. Nov. 2s-The defeat of Alfred Deakin's administration by an overwhelming majority has resulted
 in Andrew Fisher, the leader of the Labor party. accepting from Earl Dud- | Iey' the Governor General the charge
 to form as-Ministry. The Labor Party
 is in minority in the House, and Mir.
 Fisher muAt rely upon the Protection
 fists under Mir. Deakin Tor support.
 Andrew Fisher, tho new Prime Minister, is typical of his party. He
 began at the bottom and has won through by the force of a strong per- sonality. Unlike Mfr. Deakin, he ig not an Australian native. but he was caught young, and the Commonwealth can claim to have moulded the man she is now placing in command of her government
 Mir. Fisher is another triumph for l Scotland Born of poor mining parents in Crosshouse. in Ayrshire, in ] 1882. he was taken underground to work before he reached his teens, and from that day until now he has never been out of harness. Having in mind the Andrew Fisher Of today, one can picture a tall. slight, brown-eyed boy in the Ayrshire mine, a merry, optimis- tic boy not in the least cowsd by the darkness of the work underground. For the dominant note in the new Prime Ministers composition has been rather a happy disposition that saw Rleams of promise in the worst of cir cumstances than big. rugged force sweeping aside the successive obstacles to his ascent.
 Andrew Fisher has plenty of abili- ty. and directness and steadiness of purpose enough; but his most valu- able possessions are hls light heart and his natural charm of manner, He iE above all a plain going man, but nothing about him suggests the poor Scottish miner.
 Ayrshire was not large enough for a young man of this kind, and when about twenty MF. Fisher emigTated to oueensland. He went at once to the Gympic dlggings. and continued the life of a miner. But very soon his mind was ranging beyond his daily labor, and he became a conspicuous figure in the trade unionism of the goldfields. Making hls way with the miners, he was returned to the Queensland Parliament in 1895, and has not since been out of politics. He was a member of Labor Ministry in Queensland which lived for two or three days. and four years ago ne was for few months Minister for GUS toms in J. c. watsons short-lived Federal Labor Ministry. MT. Fisher is not an orator, but he is clear, forceful speaker who has always held the House, and he has the quality, rare in Australia, of brevity.
 Labor has a strong claim upon the Proteetiouists for unselfish support inasmuch as with the exception of few months the Protectionists have owing to the assistance of the noml- nees of the trade unions, held mo nopoly of the Ministerial benches since the Commonwealth was established eight years ago.
