CLUB
WILL CELEBRATE
FRIDAY March 26

The Illinois Club is making en-
thusiastic preparations for the cele
bration of Illinois Day, as was shown
by the reports of the committees at
the meeting yesterday afternoon.
Next Friday, March 26th, has
been designated as Illinois Day, and
the Annual Reunion will be held
from to p. M. in Mum Park, un-
less the weather should be cool or
cloudy. in which case, 1t will be held
indoors.
Tho program committee has de-
parted from the usual custom of in
viting outside speakers and the ad-
dresses this year will be made by
members OF the club, including their
honorary member, Senator Drane.
Several Of the city's prominent men
and their wives have been invited to
attend as the guests of the Club and
. special table will be prepared for
them.
The Club members themselves will
bring baskets Of good things to eat
and the contents will be spread upon
long tables. Coffee for all will be
provided by the Club.
Many Of the members have ex /.
pressed wish to bring their friends
to the supper. Accordingly 1t has
been decided that member may
bring any number of guests upon
payment Of twenty five cents for
each person, the guests then being
entitled to all the privileges enjoyed
by membrs themselves.
The badges this year will consist
of Club buttons in addition to the
usual ribbons, and a small charge
will be made. The buttons are the
result OF a desire on the part of the
members for an emblem that can be
worn throughout the year.
The Illinois Club has never aimed
at being an exclusive organization.

DR.. Dodd, spoke last evening ON
Safe, II Saved"
Can a child Of God be finally lost
The word Of God and 1t alone can
authoritatively, satisfactorily and
finally answer this question.
Experience cannot answer 1t for
experiences vary among different in

with authority. for It has varied
voice.
Observation cannot answer this
question because observation cannot
have full and perfect Information.
First, one can never know absolutely
by what he sees and hears Of an
other whether that other Is saved
person or not. And second, II he
knew that much he could never
know whether or not that one was
finally lost. And to prove the GER
tainty Of final apostasy one must
show beyond all doubt one Of two
things. D That the one lost had
been a saved person; (2) that the
one saved was lost.
None can answer but the divinely
inspired. unalterable and eternal
Word, our final court Of appeal In

SEQUEL TO GREER SUICIDE.
Robt. McElrOy Faces Serious Charge
in Jail at Spartanburg.

Readers Of The Courier will recall
the recent account published in The
Courier as to the suicide Of Annie
Glenn, of Greer. The following dis
patch sent out from Spartanburg
tells of the awful sequel that may
follow the sad death Of the young
girl:
Spartanburg, Oct. 2O.-A crime
punishable by the death penalty is
charged against Robert McElroy, a
young white man of Greenville who
was brought to the Spartanburg Jail
Sunday on an indictment charging
accessory before the fact in the sui
eide Of Annie Glenn, young woman
Of Greer.
Young McElroy was captured in
Laurens Saturday. Since the sui
eide Of the young girl, on October 8,
occurred in Spartanburg county, the
young man will probably be brought
up for trial before the coming term
Of the Court OF General Sessions, I'M
less the charge is dismissed at pre-
liminary hearing before a magistrate
at that time.
McElrOy, it is alleged, was involv-
ed in the dying statement Of the girl,
who IS said to have asserted that she
took her life because her lover, who
had disgraccd her, had fled town af-
ter all arrangements had been made
for their marriage. McElroy former
ly conducted a pressing club at Greer.
According to statement last
night by local attorneys, a verdict Of
guilty on the charge against the
young man would mean the same
penalty as if he had been charged
with murder. Should the jury find
Il verdict Of guilty with recommcnda-
ton for mercy, the judge, of course.
would impose a milder sentence. as
in cases where murder is charged
The case is a novel one from Il lc-
gal standpoint for this section, and
it is probable that no case Just like it
has come up for trial in this county
in many years.
When the shrill voice OF the pea
cock is heard a change of weather is
probable.

LETTERS TO CLEMSON.

In seeking information or help from
Clemson College, farmers should ad-
dress the expert or officer in whose
line the point In question is, when
ever possible. This will avoid DELAYS
which are sometimes costly. This is
especially true Of such matters as in
sect pests, plant diseases and animal
diseases. which can spread 80 rapidly.
In outbreaks OF hog cholera, farmers
should either communicate Immediate
ly with the county demonstration
agent or with the veterinary division
Of Clemson College. Merely address
ing the college will get letter to it's
goal eventually, but sometimes delays
which are dangerous come about 1t
Is good plan for a farmer to keep
one OF the experiment station bulletins
always at hand, as in the front Of
each OF these bulletins will be found
the experiment station staff, which
will serve as directory to any one
wishing to write to the college for in
formation.

ENGLISH WOMAN EXECUTED
by German COuftmartial for Assist
ance Given COuntlymen.

London, Oct. 21.-The full report
of the circumstances of the conviction
and execution of Miss Edith Cavell
an English woman and head Of a
training school in Brussels, for help
ing English, French and Belgian sol
diers to escape from Belgium, made
by Brand Whitlock, American minis
ter at Brussels, to Walter H. Page,
issued by the British government this
evening.
How the secretary Of the American
legation, Hugh S. Gibson, sought out
the German Governor, Won Der
Lancken, late al night before the eX-
ecutiOn, and, with the Spanish minis
ter, pleaded with the Governor and
the German officers for the English
woman's life, is graphically related in
Il memorandum from Mr.. Gibson.
This document makes reference to an
apparent lack of good faith on the
part of the German authorities in
failing to keep their promises to in
form the American minister fully of
the trial and sentence.
Minister Whitlock telegraphed to
Ambassador Page on the 18th: Miss
Cavell sentenced yesterday and exc
cuted at o'clock this morning, de-
spite our best efforts, continued until
the last moment"
Mr. Whitlock' final appeal was in
the form Of a note sent by messen-
ger late on the night Of the 11th to
Governor Won Der Lancken, reading
as follows:
My Dear Baron: | am too sick to
present my request myself but ap-
peal to your generosity Of heart to
support it and save from death this
unhappy woman. Have pity on her,
Yours truly, Brand Whitlock."
Secretary Gibson's report says that
Conrad, an official Of the German
civil branch, gave positive assurances
on the 11th that the American lega-
tiun would be fully informed Of the

Despite these assurances, we

assurances that he would not fail to
