The Lamara


 The last chance to see the pie lures of "The Inside of the White Slave Traffic" is offered by the La mara theater to the movie fans of the city, and those interested in sociological research today. This pie ture has broken all records so far for a midsummer attraction. The people literally stood up at the La mara both last night and the night before to see the portrayals. It is expected that todays business will eclipse both the other days. The at traction not only has been a draw ing card for the night performances but also for the afternoon. No such matinees have been played in a long time at any theater in the city as were shown at the Lamara to 'The Inside of the White Slave Traffic." The picture is the most interesting of its kind that ever has shown here It gives the inner workings of the system that drags young girls down to degradation and woe. It shows several heart-rending scenes. There is no comedy in the picture-it is sordid. It has a mission and teaches great moral lesson.

To Meet to Consider Borrowing
100000 for Expenses.

Columbia, May 6.-The borrowing
board of the State will meet on Mag
81 to consider the advisability OF
borrowing 100000 or 100000 to
meet the running expenses OF the

posed of Governor Manning. Comp
troller General Sawyer and State

cent. 1t has been necessary for sew
eral years 10 borrow several hundred
thousand dollars to meet running eX-

PURE PIRACY, SAYS TEDDY.
Col. Roosevelt Comments on Sinking
of LuSitania.

Syracuse, y. Y, May 7.-Theodore
Roosevelt. former president of the
United States, after learning details
of the sinking of the Lusitania to-
night, made this statement:
This represents not merely piracy,
but piracy on a vaster scale of muir
der than any old-time pirate ever
praoticed. This is the warfare which
destroyed Louvain and Dinant and
hundreds of men, women and chill
dren in Belgium. 1t is warefare
against innocent men,. women and
children, travelling on the ocean, and
to our fellow country women, who
are among the sufferers.
"It seems inconceivable that we
can refrain from taking action in this
matter, for we owe it not only to
humanity, but to our own national
self-respect.

Much Damage at Elloree.

Elloree, May IA fearful cyclone
swept over Elloree this afternoon,
it's path ranging from quarter of a
mile to half a mile in breath and sew
eral miles in length, uprooting giant
trees and demolishing number of
buildings. 1t seems a miracle that
no one was seriously hurt, and so far
Mrs. J. D. Strock, who was passing
the Methodist church, which was
completely demolished, is the only
one reported to have received any in
juries.
Mrs. Strock, who stopped in the
porch of the church, was struck by a
piece of the falling building. Her in
juries, it is said, are slight. No cas-
ualties from the country so far have
been reported, but it was learned late
this afternoon that a number of farm
buildings had been reduced to debris.
The cyclone appeared to have
started several miles south of Ello-
rec, sweeping over the main business
section of town in a northeasterly
direction toward the Santee river,
and it is roughly estimated that DAM
age amounting to at least $4,000 has
been sustained.
The Methodist church was reduced
to a mass Of ruins. One of the three
warehouses of the Elloree Warehouse
company, containing about two hun
dred bales Of cotton was completely
wrecked, while the roofing of the ad-
joining buildings was badly damaged.
The entire roofing of the stores of
the Stack company and P. S. Jones
was uprooted The old Snider store
room, owned by DR.. P. L. Fielder,
was badly damaged and the small
negro church and lodge building was
levelled to the ground.
The barn and stables of w. F.
Jones and of F. A. Fair were COM
store room of P. E. Heatley & Son
was badly damaged.
The cotton seed houses on the At.
lantic Coast Line Railroad company's
right of way were badly damaged
and so terrific was the wind that sew
eral box cars that were standing on
the siding were blown several hun
dred feet up the track.
A number of other buildings were
more or less damaged and this after
noon the streets were strewn witt
debris and uprooted trees that were
in the path of the cyclone, which GOV

Manning, Darlington, Elloree, and
other Points Hard Hit When
Drought is Broken.

Manning. May IA tornado
struck the centre Of the town OF
Manning shortly after t o'clock this
afternoon and caused fearful destruc-
ton of life and property. The prln-
cipal force OF the storm was limited
to a radius of about one hundred and
fifty yards of the Confederate monu-
ment, on the court house grounds,
and in that area property to the
amount of 100000 was destroyed.
Three lives were lost and several per-
sons were seriously injured.
In the New Idea Store, at the Nc
Leod corner, Miss Clara Baggett,
saleslady, was instantly killed by the
falling roof and walls, while her sis
ter, Miss Julia Baggett, is thought
to be fatally injured. In the same
store Miss Annie Thames, milliner,
was so injured as to be rendered un-
conscious for some hours, while her
brother, John Thames, was painfully
injured about one knee.
Two Killed in One Building.
At the other end of the same block
the upper story of the large Nettles
building collapsed and killed two
men, Mr.. Beasley Davis and negro
porter. This building was only re-
Gently occupied by the Manning Dry
Goods company with an extensive
stock of entirely new goods. Ad-
Joining the Nettles building is Arant's
drug store, which was almost en-
tirely demolished.
The intervening buildings, from
the Bank of Clarendon to Katsoff's
Bargain Store, were either damaged
or totally destroyed. In the Mcleod
block the walls of the Clarendon
Millinery Store. collapsed and mar
rowly missed crushing Mrs. J. NJ.
Bradhan, the proprietress. The roof
of the Home Bank was blown off, and
the walls of the Wilson Insurance
company's Office collapsed.
Stores Unroofed.
Across the street extensive damage
was done to the roofs or front walls
of nearly every store except Zeigler's
Pharmacy. The main building Of the
Plowden Hardware company was un-
rooted, while the warehouse in the
rear was demolished. Cothran's to-
bacco warehouse and Glenn's tobacco
warehouse were completely wrecked.
Singular freaks of the storm were
impressive, such as the new brick
stables of Coffey & Rigby being un-
rooted and damaged, while the frame
stables of D. H. Bradham & Son,
across the street, escaped unscathed.
A number of small dwellings were de-
molished, but the full extent of the
damage cannot be ascertained.

Moral Life Among
Circus Employees

The elevated standard OF morality
of circus men and women is a revela.
ton to one who is with them from day
to day, and is their close companion.
The atmosphere and environment
seems charged with health and hap.
piness, vigor and virtue. Drunken,
ness is never permitted in any form.
immediate discharge, no matter who
the offender may be. is the penalty
and, except in the ranks OF the work,
inGmen. few, ii any. are ever found
guilty. The very nature OF the cir.
Gus business torbids immoral or vic.
Ious excuses. The hours are long
and the work is hard, therefore the
Ylgor OF the brain and body must not
be dissipated.
The women Of the circus are not
permitted TO engage in conversation
with any one not directly connected
with the show. Most OF them attend
church each Sunday and it is not an
tntrequent occurrence for a ministe,
OF the gospel TO be invited to lead di.
vine services on a Sabbath afternoon.
II has always been the aim with the
management OF the Carl Hagenbecx.
Wallace Circus, which comes to Fair.
mont Friday, September n, for two
performances, TO inculcate a spirit OF
good fellowship and enduring arec.
ton, founded upon commo respect
and esteem.
1t demands that everyone connect.
ed with the show be polite and civil,
assist patrons in trouble, maintain a
spirit OF harmony; in fact, make the
visit OF the people a pleasing one that
they may wish 10 return Oh another
day to the circus. Gambling is strict
~ prohibited, and a fine awaits the
one caught using profane language.
The Carl Eagenbeck-WalIace Circus
is a little city within itself. There
are almost a thousand people connect

TIME FOR BALL CLUBS TO TAKE CHANCES
is WHEN THEY ARE BEHIND, SAYS FOIL

Manager Lee Fohl OF the Cleveland
Indians has a few pet ideas about
managing a ball club that are a little
different from the general run.
"a manager should not send a bat.
ter up 10 the plate with definite or.
ders," says Foil. ANY time you put
a batter under orders you are taking
something away from him for, in fol.
lowing instructions, he may be forced
to let a grand opportunity pass.
Pitchers should o be worked too
hard in the spring training camp.
