My, though, tee women have the
town this week. Amt it true? Did
you ever see so many? They start
early and they work late. guess
they must be doing things. l hap
pened on the street one afternoon when
they were marching down town from
the Baptist church to the court house,
and it looked like a regiment, and
guess it was a regiment, and they are
fighting in a good cause. Pity they
couldn't go over on the continent and
tell those Germans and Allies how
they should fight, and put them in a
different kind of war from what they
are waging. They tell me that at the
court touse even at evening sessions
no men scarcely can find a seat The
men should go out and learn some
thing Wei, l reckon it is alright. l
have been told they are not suffra-
gettes. That is good. They are do
ing a great work in this State. I
hope they will do some good in New
berry by their coming, and l believe
they will. l am sure they will go
away saying nice thing about the peo-
pie of Newberry for while our people
will fight one another and won't pull
together on anything for the good of
the town for fear the Commercial
bank or some other bank is working
the thing ;-or its own benefit, tney will
get together on one thing, and that
is making the stranger wit.in it's gates
feel at fome and glad that he (she)
came and when it comes to entertain
ment we beat the world. They tell
me that Jim Burton (beg pardon. I
should say Mr.. j. A. Burton, and he's
a fine fellow too) has burned up a
hundred gallons Of gasoline and wore
out four brand new Firestone tires
running his Studebaker hauling the
fair delegates, and that he always
tries to look out for the youngest and
handsomest of the delegates. Just how
he managed tie latter l do not know
for I am informed that they are all
young and handsome and that many
of them are not married Mr.. Burton
is doing the proper thing in giving or
his time and money for the pleasure of
otlrs. That is the only way to enlarge
and develop ourselves. But he is not
tie only one. Other gave their cars
and their time. w. S. Melton, and
Herman Wright, ! have heard met all
trains and Walter Wallace. Well, to
tell the truth 1 don't know all VITO
were there but l feel sure those VINO
were not present would have been if
that notice to stay away and let the
committee do it had not been publish
ed in the papers. So ar as l am con-
cerned | am glad tat these good wo-
men came and / feel sure that they
will leave a good influence on our
whole community which will continue
to do good long al ter they have gone.
God bless the dear women.

disband that he went out in hundred

than a hazy memory, in fact he had
forgotten all of them.
Demanded Separate Trials.
When the case was called Tuesday
morning, before Judge Nuessle, Will
lam Empting and Katie Winegard de.
manded that they be tried separately.
The latter asking to have her trial
advanced at once. This was done
ald jury empanelled. So soon as
the jury was in the box the state
called its chief witness Broderick.
He could not remember anything
about the matter and was sharply
cautioned to try to think.
Was Ordered to Jail.
After few minutes of this kind Of
work, Judge Nuessle ordered the
Wi1egard woman dismissed and Bro
derrick to the county jail until he
could give bonds in the sum Of $4,000.
A charge of prejury will be laid
against him and the matter will prob
,bly come up for hearing before the
end of this term Of court. The case
of Empting will come up at ten
o'clock this morning.

engagement of Prince Oskar, the fifth
son of the German emperor, to the
Countess Ina Marie Won Bassewitz-
Levetzow, maid of honor to the em-
press, was announced today. The
prince is 26; his fiancee is the same
age. 1t is assumed the emperor, who
consented to the engagement, owing,
it is said, to the lack of available
German princesses, as he has an
aversion to foreign marriage. His
son will confer a higher rank in no.
bility on the young countess, who is
not of the royal blood. !
