Charleston, Dec f5.-Fire swept

10 o'clock was not entirely subdued
The blaze broke out at about $40
o'clock and spread rapidly. Pier No, :
within month OF completion ana
costing over 100000, was almost de-
stroyed. The origin of the fire has
not yet been discovered.

Ross No. 2, the damage was confined
to the pier which burned, a great
amount of freight in The recently com
pleted pier just north Of No. 2, and
that magnificent structure itself be-

Thousands Of people gathered TO
watch the water front spectacle. For

east breeze scattered great volumes
of sparks over the southern end OF
the city but without damage. Pier
No. 2 was to be completed by jan

was tied near the burning dock but
she backed into the ST cam safely and
proceeded south.
Estimates of the loss at this time
vary from $4,000 to over 100000.
The direction of the wind nad much to

Church of the Redeemer on Friday
afternoon at 4 o'clock, to Miss Mary
Lou Bowers who leaves her 1onle on
December 26th, for Japan, as a mis-

mad been converted into veritable
bower of fair Japan, with its japanese
parasole, lanterns, chrysanthemums
and cushions.
Each guest was provided with a
dainty little booklet in which she
wrote a message to Miss Bowers, to be
read on the steamer. Then little
Misses Elizabeth Harms and Benetta
Buzhardt, dressed as little JAP
maidens with huge parasols, suddenly
appeared, and after witty little verses
of invitations, carried Miss Bowers
into the dining room, where che was
showered with many beautiful gifts
tokens of love and esteem OF neI
friends. A bevy of young girls, in
costume, served tea and waters from
a beautiful appointed table, in Jap
anese custom. The delightful after
noon will be long cherished by Mis-:
Bowers, as she goes to her far away
work, and by all the friends who
were privileged to be present.
