UNIONS JUBILEE
SALE TUESDAY
ThrOngs of Spectators and
Shoppers Filled the
Streets Tuesday Evening.
Splendid Show Window
DecOratiOns-Prize Win
nerS.

Unions Jubilee Sale" came off as
scheduled Tuesday evening. Main
street was brilliantly lighted, the new
white Way" being on in full blast.
The White Way" is all and more
than 1T was expected to be. The light
ing is perfect and the ornamental
lamp posts, capped by a cluster of
globe-shaded lamps produce quite an
artistic effect.
Many of the stores had windows
tastefully decorated; in fact, it must
have been hard matter for the
Judges to award the prizes to the
winners of first and second place. c..
Allen Co. won first prize, $500; Union
Clothing Co. won second prize, $3.50;
while Godshalls market won honor
able mention. The Union Hardware
Co. won the prize for the best electri-
cal display. Besides the winners there
were many handsome windows, among
them being Stone-Jones Hardware Co.,
Union Grocery Co., Milhous Drug Co.,
Peoples Drug Co., Glymph,s Phar-
macy, Palmetto Drug Co., N. Shapiro.
J. Cohen, Tinsley's Jewelry Store, /.
From, Sanders Brothers, rTcLure
,Megeaintile Co, Mel Clure- - mo
store, Bailey Furniture & Lumber Co,
Bailey Undertaking CO., The Battery,
!, Busy Bee" and others. 1t must
have been quite difficult to decide upon
the winners. But whether prize was
won or not is of small moment. Ev-
cry merchant who tried to win was a
helper. The combined result was a
most creditable showing. Better than
all prizes is the spirit of cooperation
shown and the willingness to boost.
The prize given to the one customer
whose purchases aggregated the larg
est total went to Mr.. E. A. Goodwin.
The trading was quite lively, many of
the merchants doing a very handsome
business that evening.

MRS. wakefield
DIES IN COLUMBIA
Was a Woman of Highest
Type of Character and
Was Greatly Beloved.
Buried at Shelbyville,
KY.

Mrs. w. D. Wakefield died at her
home in Columbia Thursday night,
Dec. 16, and her remains were taken to
Shelbyville, KY, the following day for
burial. She had been very ill for sew
eral weeks, and for some time before
her death her life had been despaired
of. Rev. w. d. Wakefield, formerly
pastor of the First Baptist church
here, and at the time of Mrs. Wake
fields death, pastor<-of the Second
Baptist church, Columbia, has the
deep sympathy of a multitude of
friends in the hour of his sad bereave-
ment.
Here in Union Mr.. and Mrs. Wake
field held large place in the hearts
of the people. During the several
years pastorate here both the pastor
and his wife were untiring in their
efforts to win souls to Christ.
M Mrs. Wakefield before her mar
riage, April %, 1902, was Miss Sarah
HARRISON, of Shelbyville, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. B. C. HARRISON. Be
sides her husband she is survived by
her mother, Mrs. Kate B. HARRISON, q
11-yearrold son, Ben HARRISON Wake
field; and three brothers, y B. Har-
se zsd 5 = s'Hil Espsiz5n' b Indiassys
offs. Mrs. D. G. Cowhred, Of Kansas
City, her aunt, and her mother were
at her bedside at the time of her
death.
The death of this noble Christian
woman has brought sorrow to many
hearts. She was gentle and kind of
heart, tactful and helpful in admins
tering to the needs of others, and was
willing to spend and be spent for the
Master, whom she served. She was a
woman of more than ordinary mind
and to a trained mind she added a
heart as kind and tender as that of a
child. She leaves behind her name
for good works and for exalted living
that will exert a wide influence
throughout the coming days.

James A. Hayne, M. D., State
health officer, in his report, says:
Pellagra still remains the riddle
that we have not yet solved. Light
seems to be breaking in the east in
regard to this disease. We are now
able to say that we can do much to-
wards preventing it's occurrence by
proper diet and proper hygienic sur
roundings, and we believe that esti-
mates systematically directed towards
educating the people in regard to pei
iagra will stem the tide of this disease
which has taken the awful toll of
l,3O6 lives in South Carolina during
the first ten months of this year, near
~ equaling tuberculosis and over
three times the mortality of typhoid
fever" "-Wednesday's State.

about two months ago. Neither Knox
nor Foster know the other was in
