Trusty Leaves Chain Gang.

John Carter, n negro trusty on the
county chain gang took French leave
some time during Monday and has not
been heard of since. Carter had serv-
ed about three fourths of term of
two years for manslaughter and was
being used as cook. Some time dur
ing the early part of the day it is
thought, he decided to give up his job
and left. As he was left in the camp
alone to prepare food for the rest of
the gang, his disappearance was not
discovered until late in the day. The
negro had previously given no trou-
BILE and was looked upon as model
prisoner, being used, for that reason,
as a trusty. He comes from the lower
section of the county, in Hopewell
township, where numbers Of his rela-
tiVes live. Up until last night no
trace of him had been found.

Snow Friday Morning.

The people of Iaurens and vicinity
awoke Friday morning to find the
ground covered with a mantle OF
snow. Having been very light snow
fall, it melted rapidly Friday and by
night nearly all of it had disappeared.
The snow man was rather partial to
Laurens this time, for the fall was
confined to rather a small area, this
city being among the very few fav-
ored. However, other places have not
been sighted in the way of cold, for
wintry weather has prevailed over all
this section, coming as welcome Wis
itor after the warm weather of the
past few weeks

DR.. f. M Routh, who is conducting
the hook worm campaign in this coun-
ty, has announced that, becaueo of
lack of interest in that vicinity, the
dispensary for the free diagnosis and
treatment of hook worm at Cross
Hill will be discontinued. He finds
that he is kept very busy in othef
parts of the county and that he can
use his time more profitably else
where. Dr. Routh states that he is
receiving the cooperation OF physi-
clans and the people generally in
nearly every section of the county
and that he Is well pleased with the
work here SO far.

PEOPLES FOR GOVERNOR,
Announces his Intention to Enter
GubernatOrial Race In 1914. Rum
Ored that LOwndes j. Browning
would Also Run.

Ored that Lowndes j. Browning
would Also Run.
Announcement comes from Column
bia that Thos. III. Peoples, at present
attorney general OF South Carolina,
will be in the race for governor in
1914. Mr.. Peoples authorized the an
nonncement himself. Mr.. Peoples was
"Blease" candidate in the recent
primary. In connection with this de-
finite announcement from MIR. Peoples
comes the rumor that Lowndes j.
Browning, Of Union, will also be in
the race. Mr.. Browning is not now
in politics, but has represented Union
county in the Legislature for several
sessions. He was chairman of the
ways and means committee OF the
House for several years and came into
considerable prominence in connection
with his duties on that committee
Gov. Blease has already announced
that he will enter the race for United
States senator in 1914, when the seat
now held by Sen. Smith will be CON
tended for. Sen. Smith has also an
nounced his intention of running
again.
Possibly there are others.

REED MILLER CONCERT
TUESDAY EVENING

SaIe OF RESERVED seats Gives Prom
ise Of Crowded House when Reed
Miller and his Associates Appear
Here Tuesday.
The sale of the seats for the Reed
Miller concert, which is to be given
here Tuesday evening, has been very
encouraging to the ladies OF the Civic
League, who have the concert in
charge, and Judging from the present
enthusiasm there will be a premium
upon seats before the curtain is rails
ed. Tickets are now being sold on the
streets by children and at the Pal
mebto Drug store, where the opera
house diagram is. Order for seats
may be telephoned to the Palmetto
Drug store or those living in other
towns may write for seats If they
prefer. The price OF reserved seats
is $1.00, for seats down stairs behind
the railing ia rs cents and for the gal
lery Is so cents. A partition has
been built in the gallery to separate
the races.
Reed Miller will have associated
with him Frank Coxton, basso-can
tante, and John r. Rebarer, a plan
list Of first rank. All Of these artists
have national regulations and all of
them are southern men. Mr.. Miller
possesses lyric tenor voice OF mark
ed beauty and power. He has made
great musical strides in the last few
years, and is steadily growing in pop
ularity. Beginning with a beautiful
voice naturally, he is now a finished
artist. Last season he sang with the
New York symphony orchestra, Wal
ter Damrosch, conductor, on it's annu-
al tour; with the Theodore Thomas
orchestra, at Worcester, Mass, and
Evanston, H., festivals; and with the
New York oratorio society and organi-
cations Of like character. He is more
sought after by the large choral So
cieties of the north than any Ameri-
can tenor, especially in the tenor
role Of Handels Messiah, has ho won
great praise and favor He is now
the leading tenor at the new Saint
Thomas episcopal church on Fifth
avenue, one Of the richest and hond
soonest churches in New York city.
Mr.. Miller is a native Of Anderson,
and is the greatest singer South Car
olina has ever produced since the
days of Louis Kellog who was born
in Sumter S. c., eighty years ago.
For this reason alone every lover Of
music should hear him. He is able
to concertize only at infreQuont inter
walls in this section, owing to his
engagements in the North. He will
be given a warm welcome in Laurens
and the public is fortunate to be
able to have the unusual opportunity
of attending such an artistic concert
Mr.. Croxton as a basso-cantate and
Mr.. Rebarer, pianist, who will appear
with Mr.. Miller, are artists of high
rank and popularity.
The concert will be given in the
opera house and will start promptly
at $3.50 o'clock. Persons coming late
Will not be allowed to go to their
places while any number is being
rendered. Therefore, everybody who
expects to attend should be prompt
in reaching the opera house.

Bill Goes Over to the Next Session.

OF the general assembly will be mark
ed' by the passage of the McCravey
compulsory education bill. That ia the
most important piece of legislation to
pass the legislature in this State In
many year. The measure has re-
ceived the Endorsement OF the house
and 1t is very probable that the senate
Will make it law. The only question
now Is: VIII the governor apply tho
veto? If he does it is believed that
the friends OF the measure regardless
OF whether they are friends OF the
governor or not will come to its u.s.
sIstance and that the bill will be plac-
ed on the statute books

that the governor will apply the veto
In several items. From the test vote

1t seems now that whatever the gov
