This CITY.

Mr.. P. d. Gold, Jr., first vice-presi-
dent and general manager of the Jefrer-
son Standard Life Insurance Co., of
Raleigh, N. c., was in the city last

ran visited some towns and cities in
western South Carolina for the purpose
of selecting place for the general
agency Office and after due deliberation
selected Laurens as the most central,
accessible and best point They have
selected Offices in the new Enterprise
bank building, second floor, which will
be fitted up, and from these Offices the
entire western South Carolina business
will be conducted. The establishment
of these head Offices for this part of
the State Is quite an acquisition to our
city. Mr.. Gold was seen by repre-
sentative of The Advertiser on last
Thursday. Yes, said Mr.. Gold, eve
have selected Laurens as on" headuuar-
ters for western South Carolina. We
like the city and its position in the
State. The Jefferson, you know, is the
strongest company in the South. 1t
has surplus to policy holders of over
$1,000 and has among its directors
some of the most prominent fnanciers
in the two Carolinas. 1t gives the peo-
pie of your section a chance to obtain
the same protection as can be given by
the large northern companies and at the
same time keep your money at home
and build up your own section. 1t is
the policy of the jefferson to invest its
funds in the communities from which it
gets its business -

THE DIAMOND
BANG OF THE BATS WAS FIERCE
Hartford Hit tbe Ball to All Cor
 ners of the Lot and We !. Lost.

Waterbury tried to get in dou- ble header with Hartford yesterday, but only succeeded in finishing up one of the battles. At that if the local management had not insisted the full nine innings of the only game played would not have been finished. Manager Durant wanted the game called in the middle of the fifth inning as it was raining quite a little, but Hartford insisted on a continuance and when the um- pire was also willing party, the local management then insisted that the whole nine innings be played out. Hartford had her lucky bats with her and how the seekers after the championship did pound the ball. Cobb headed the list with four healthy ones, one of them being homer, which Cote could not field in time. Eddie Farley started in to twirl for the locals, but after two were out, the Hartfords got busy with the stick and when three juicy wallops and free pass followed. Eddie was invited to the bench. Sil- lery took his place and started off well but before the nine innings had ended he was pounded all over the lot, IS safe ones being the record tallied up against him. Every man on the Hartford outfit got a safe drive while We were held down to just five. It was an easy victory for the visitors, who are corking good mud horses. The score;
