An Aftern on Diversion.

An Afternoon Diversion.
A hostess who wished TO provide Il
novel diversion for her afternoon
guests prepared number OF sheets Of
paper with the name OF II course OF an
elaborate dinner written on each, and
at the bottom of each sheet were writ
ten the words, Il vote for.''
The papers We're distributed, and the
guests were invited to write an origi-
nal recipe for the course, which fell to
her lot. A quarter OF an hour was al
lowed for the writing of the recipes,
and at the end of the time the papers
We're gathered up and redistributed, so
that no one had the paper she had
written. As no names. were on the
papers no one knew whose paper she
held. and thus with perfact boldness
she read nlond the recipe on the paper
in hand. Only the cuiprits knew who
had written the recipes which provok.
ed so much mirth when they were read
aloud.
When all the recipes had been read
each guest voted on the paper she
held for the recipe she liked best The
papers We're then collected again, and
after the votes had been counted the
prize, which was cookery book, was
aworded.
Some players were very serious and
did the best they could with the limit
ed knowledge ot their command. The
sshers were nonsehsicai anu amusing.

at the Duncan mills in Greenville
was shot and instantly killed
Monday morning at 4:30 o'clock
by w. S. Chadwick, an itinerant
mill operative, who is said at one

Lindsay fell to the floor of the
porch and Chadwick ran into the

Congressman d. E. Finley a
few days ago introduced in the
house a bill providing for the
issue of emergency currency to
aid in and facilitate the market
ing of the cotton crop of the
year 1914. and for other pur-
poses. The bill, which was re-

issuing of half million dollars
worth of treasury notes to be dis
tributed among banks through
out the South, upon request,
said bank or banks to give their
note to the government to retire
said notes when same have full

NOTHING DECISIVE YET
FROM EASTERN WAR

Yesterdays press dispatches
said that the siXty-third day of
the great European war saw .
repetition of what the people of
all the countries concerned have
forced themselves to expect.
perhaps for months to come-no
decisive conflict on land or sea.
From Berlin to London came
nothing in the way of German
claims to progress or reverses.
From Petrograd came what has
flowed without interruption for
weeks - consistent claims of
progress for Russian arms.
From Paris, at the usual mid
afternoon hour was issued the
usual communication. so-called.
Interpreting the situation along
the battle line of the western
theater of war in the light of
those in opposition to the Ger

from the Belgian frontier, as
the crow flies, and behind them
German forces moving on line

there's. the latter point right at
the Belgian border.
At the same time the official
communication makes it plain
that the Allies have not been
idle and have been extending
their line on the left wing more
and more widely. Blow for
blow evidently is being dealt
around Arras, the scene of
sanguinary fighting recently.

an oral estimate of the cost of
the furnishings, placing the fig
ures at $4,000. The estimate
was objected to by Mr.. Brad

as too indefinite. The objection
was seconded by Senator Beam
guard and Mr.. Cherry, also of
the legislative delegation. Prac-
tically nothing was done at the
meeting more than to call for a
detailed estimate of the cost of
the furnishings, which is to be

Legislature in Extra Session.

The extra session Of the South
Carolina Legislature. called by
Governor Blease some weeks
ago. convened at the State capi-
tol Tuesday at noon. This is the
first extra session in the last so
years and the 10Th in the history
of the State. The primary rea-
son for the extra session was to
consider the cotton situation, but
the proclamation of the governor
was so worded that the law
makers may also transact any
other business. S. T. Carter,
State treasurer, says that the
expense of the session will be
upwards of $4,000 and that
special provision for meeting it
will have to be made before
adjournment, since funds for the
purpose are not available. Each
legislator. regardless of the
length of the session, will be
entitled to draw mileage plus
5000 pay; there is nothing in the
law, however, to prevent any
member from returning this
money or part of it to the
treasury.
