HOOKS WILL BE RETURNED
 TO NEW HAVEN CARS.
All to Be Provided With Hooks to
 Hold Passengers Wearing Apparel.

No passenger car on the New Haven system will be without hooks to hold the wearing apparel of travellers, ac- cording to a decision reached by rep reSentatives of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company who appeared before the public utilities commission. Action to have all coaches provided with hooks to hold clothing was recently taken by the commission
 when it summoned the agents of the road to give their reasons for removing the holders from the racks above the car windows.
 The commissioners discovered that the hooks disappeared from the cars at the time that advertisement were inserted in the space running along the cars over the windows. Representa- tives of the railroad said that in order to insert the advertisements over the racks the hooks had to be removed. All hooks above the windows were re- moved in cars on the sO-called suburb an lines. Advertisements are not used in the through trains, the railroad rep resentatiVes said
 It was found by the commissioners that the removal of the hooks had caused considerable inconvenience to the passengers. The commission, on it's own initiative summoned the rail- road representatives The hearing re- suited in a long discussion, during which agents of the company were with the fact that the trav- elers needed the hooks and would not be at east until they had them. The commissioners were told that the hooks had to be removed to make way for the march Of advertising, but if the passengers suffered tn erailroad agents believed that it would be ad- visable to replace the hooks.
 The railroad representatives told the that the hooks would be replaced imme ediately. The com found that the advertise ments placed in the cars covered cer- tain spaces over the windows and al- lowed a large amount of dust to col lect. It was suggested to the railroad that this was unsani- tary and that a new system of insert ing the advertising cards in the cars, would help matters along. The New Haven road men said that the trouble would be remedied and the hooks into their accustomed places.

Rev. C. L. Hall Asserts Intermarriage
 is Rapidly Increasing.

Minneapolis, Minn., Oct. 1S.-Rev. c. L. Hall of North Dakota, for two score years a missionary on the Fort Bert Hold reservation, declared in an ad- dress before the Aemrscan Missionary Association today that the Indian and white races will be completely merged through inter marriage within the next fifty years.
 Despite the fact that the Indian birth rate is rising and the death rate falling, I believe that the Indian race will have disappeared fifty years from now,'' the speaker said.
 ''Intermarriage between whites and reds is rapidly increasing. The only objectionable feature lies in the fact that many whites arc marrying 1n- dians to obtain their shares of tribal wealth. But this. too, is hurrying the amalgamation."

following Thanksgiving proclama-
ton:
"While other nations and peoples
have suffered horrifying destruction
of life and property, and have endur-
ed the stupendous catastrophes of
war, our people have enjoyed health,
peace and prosperity.
"Our unbroken custom has been to
acknowledge by public act our graft
tude to Almighty God for mercies
vouchsafed us.
Thanksgiving and prayers should
be accompanied by generous gifts for
the relief of those who are in dis
tress and of those in want.
"Now, therefore, l, Richard I. Man
ming, governor of the State of South
Carolina, do appoint Thursday, No
vember 80, 1915, as day of thanks
giving and prayer. On that day
urge our people to lay aside business
and labor, repair to their places OF
worship, lift up their hearts in fe1'
vent prayer to God and express our
gratitude by contributing to the re-
lief of the suffering and want of those
who are in need Of our sympathy and
aid.

the State, in Columbia, this twenty
third day of November, in the year of

Republican Pays Freak Bet.

A freak bet between Groceryman
Charles P. Cecil, Jr., and the repre-
sentative of the Armour Packing
company-Mr. Judy-made over the
result of the recent election, caused
more genuine merriment than has
been witnessed in this city in the past
several months. Mr.. Cecil took the
Hughes end of the betting, while Mr..
Judy espoused the cause of Wilson.
The loser was to push the other from
the postoffice down through Main
street in a wheelbarrow, so Mr.. Judy
had the ride, amid the greatest ex-
citement and the applause of per-
feet multitude of excited onlookers.
Sir Richard Stout, the wonderful son
of the intrepid and wonderful DR..
Stout, led the procession with mop
he used as a baton with splendid ef-
feet. Following came Mr.. Cecil with
his successful opponent in the one
wheel carriage. Mr.. Cecil had coro-
nation which consisted of tin and a
rooster, which was in the act of pro-
claiming victory on his apparently
happy head. Behind was banner
of MIR. Cecils own make, which read:
Typical Democrat thinks he is rid
ing easy, when he is being jolted to
DEATH" Other banners in the pro-
cession were: God Bless Califor-
nia," Use Armour's Bacon" Don't
Thank Us, Thank Johnson Thanks
to Teddy" "Charles Pusher Cecil"
The college boys were in evidence
with large and small drums and with
yells. The whole affair was enjoy
ed by all and a general good feeling
pervaded the bettors as we'll as the
spectators. 1t really caused more ex-
citement than has been seen in Dan
Vile in many months past.-Danville
