At meeting Tuesday of the
Democratic executive committee
of Newberry county, it was de-
cided by unanimous vote to allow
the name of Coleman Livingston
Blease to remain on the club roll.
The question as to the Gov

dent of Ward 5 of the city of

siding in Newberry, his residence
is in Ward 3.

rollment is 20 less than the
previous vote.

of the campaign in the interest
of Senator E. d. Smith. The

st. Bernard monks gave shelter and
food to nearly 10000 persons last year
The average voluntary contribution
dropped into the box at the gate was
equivalent to two cents a person. The
monastery finds itself in financial diff
ficulties and the chapter is considering
whether fixed charge must not be
made in the future for the rich trav-
elers who visit the monastery during
fine weather, stay for the weekend,
and drop a franc or two into the box
in payment for themselves and chauf
feur for two days keep.
The monks have carried on their
charity for nine centuries without ask
ing any visitor to pay. They have
been able to do so by the income from
lands vested in the monastery. But
during the last 10 years the cost of
everything has gone up about forty
per cent, while rentals have remained
stationary.
We hope to continue" says the Alb
bot Bourgeois, the head of the chapter,
giving free hospitality as we have
done since the eleventh century. AL
though IL the burden becomes too
heavy for our means we shall be
obliged to charge a small sum much

BUILDING ~
IN RICHMOND COLLAPSES

The large building in Richmond
known as the Masonic Temple, col
lapsed Saturday morning abaut $3.50
O'Clock. The building was a three
story one. The lower floors were oc-
cupied by the R. G. H. Covington
Company, clothing and mems fur
nishings, while the second floor was
used for the fraternity and a dance
hall, while the lodge rooms were To-
Gated on the third floor. 1t is not
known what caused the collapse of
the building, as it was remodeled and
modernized about five years ago. 1t
was located on Main street on the
most frequented corner of the city,
and it seems almost a miracle that
none OF the employees were hurt, as
the building is now a wreck
The crash caused much excite
ment and was heard several blocks
away. The building was valued at
about $4,000 and owned by the Ma
sonic order. The damage to it will
possibly be from $4,000 to $4,000.
The Coyington Company carried a
stock valued at $4,000, all of which
is more or less damaged. The cloth
ing company leased the large rooms
in the new Clay building and began
moving its stock, while the owners OF
the building set about to repair it..
