Every man in the county who is in
terested in the coming primary cleo

ANDERSON HOSPITAL BURNED.
Was Built Four Years Ago mt n Cost
OF $4,000 Patients Made Morrow
Escape.


The following special to The State
describes the burning of the Ander-
son hospital Thursday afternoon:
The Anderson county hospital, a
three-story brick building, constructed
four years ago at a cost of $4,000, was
completely destroyed by fire late
Thursday afternoon. The fire original
ed from lighted match carelessly
thrown by white man, an oil wagon
driver, near a can of kerosene which
he had just deposited on the side porch
The gasolene nearby exploded, throw
ing flames in every direction. The ne
gro orderly was the first to discover
the fire, and he hurriedly informed the
superintendent, Miss Utes, who In a
composed manner instructed the nurs-
es to help her get the patients out of
the building. All patients who were
we'll enough to walk were led from
their beds to the elevator and were
taken to the ground in safely. Six
other patients, who had undergone
operations in the last day or so. were
too weak to help themselves, and these
were carried to the ground by ladders
put up to the second-story windows.
The fames SO rapidly spread over the
building that no time was given the
rescuers to even bring bed clothes
around the patients as they passed
them through the windows. Four pa
tients were brought to the ground in
nude condition

We believe in all amendments 10 the

the changes that these suggestions

of practice they solve every dithculry

after all. nothing fills the imagination
Of the Jewish race as a lodgment IN

quarters in Jerusalem.
Still. Portugal has now approached the
Ziouists with a proposition TO turn over
TO them the Portuguese colony OF
Angola on the west coast of Africa,
and let them govern it IN their own
way. free from Portuguese interference,
aud making it self governing in every
respect. save only that Portugal would
reserve a sort of nominal overlordship
such as Great Britain exercises over
Canada and Australia, this for the
sake of protection, and to save the
colony from seizure by other powers.
The climate of Angola is said to be
excellent for white men, the soil very
fertile, aud the natural resources rich
and abundant.
II is not at all likely, however, that
even this generous offer will lure the
Zionists away from the Holy Land;
