RECORD BREAKING ATTENDANCE
AT SUNDAY SCHOOL

Hundreds of reports have been re-
ceved at the State Sunday School
office, in Spartanburg, showing that
there was record breaking atten-
dance in the Sunday Schools in the
State on "Come-to-Sunday Schoo,
Day" February H. In every way the
day seems to have been a success
throughout the State and those who
had the matter in charge are parti-
cuarly pleased With the resul&s.
The Sunday Schools, the First Bap-
tist OF Orangeburg, with an attendance
of 1,120-600 of this number being il
the men class, and the First Bap
tist of Greenviile, with an attendance
of 1,1O3, were probably the largest
Sunday Schools IN the State. Other
large schools that have reported to
the State office are the First Baptist
of Anderson with ISL; the First Sap
tist of Spartanburg, 702; Bethel Meth
odist, Spartanburg, $50; Central Meth
odist, Spartanburg, $50; First Pres
byterian, Spartanburg, 557; South
Side Baptist, Spartanburg, 81; First
Baptist, Rock Hill. 474; Bethel Meth
! odist, Charleston, 507; Dillon Metho
dist, 800 (this Sunday School secured
lO5 new members) Central Baptist,
Greenyille, Al; Mullins Methodist.
1872; Westminster Baptist, 312; Oak
land Avenue Presbyterian, Rock Hill.
$40; First Presbyterian, Greenville,
! 415; st. Paul Methodist, Greenyille,
, 3S1, and Buncombe Street Methodist,
| Greenville, 81 There are a great
number of other Sunday Schools in
the State that had 300 or more in at
; tendance on "Come-to-Sund3y School
Day"
A splendid record was made in I'm
| ion on that day. The enrolment IN
nine schools is 1922, average atten-
dance, 992. On February II, tlo at
tendance was 1896. This is an in
crease OF 25 per cent over the en-
rollment, and 65 per cent over the
average attendance One Sunday
School in Union with an enrolment
Of 130 had 221 present Sunday morn
ing. The official report from Rock
Hill shows that the Sunday Schools
! were larger than ever before. Eleven
! Sunday Schools had a total attendance
of 2,599. 1t is estimated that this Is
at least Is per cent gain over the
usual attendance. Eight Sunday
; Schools in Westminster report a to-
tai attendance of 1927 Sunday. One
of these Sunday Schools secured 81
, new members at this time, and an
! other 40. 1t is conservatively estf-
mated that there were 10000 people
in the Sunday Schools of Greenville
Sunday, and more than 5000 in the
Sunday Schools in Spartanburg. In
both of these cities many Sunday
Schools had the largest attendance in
their history Thousands of new
members were secured in the Sunday
Schools of the State on last Sunday
! as a result of the carefully planned
program suggested by the State Sun
day School association.

Oil and water will not mix-that IS
an old axiom, but it is no truer than
the fact that Fifth Avenue and Coney
Island are not intended to meet and
mingle on the. same social plane.
Fifth Avenues manners and garb are
very humorous in the eyes o. Coney
Island and Coney Islands lack OF
manners and garb are equally humor-
Gus to Fifth Avenue-where they are
not shockingly offensive.
Slices from these two very differ
ent strata of society meet and try to
mingle on the screen of the opera
house Thursday, where the Famous
Players Film Company pres ents Irene
Fenwick with Owen Moore, in "a
Coney Island Princess" a Paramount
Picture, produced under the direction
Of Del Henderson. 1t is an adapta-
ton of Edward Sheldons successful
play "The Princess Zim-Zim." The
result is one of the most fascinating
combinations of comedy and drama
that has been seen on the screen for
long while. Can you imagine a
Coney Island dancer, Tessie Mooney,
introduced to Fifth Avenue as the
finance of one of the "400?' Can you

ELLIOTT DIES
IN CALIFORNIA
WAS ELECTED STATE SENATOR
FROM ESMERALDA COUN-
TY IN 1914

j. r. Rock, formerly associated
state senator from Esmeralda coun-
ty, last night received a telegram
announcing che death of DR.. Elliott
at Paradise, Butte county, Cal. Since
he left Goldfield some time ago, DR..
Elliott's friends here have from
time to time received word that he
was in poor health and of late the
seriousness of his condition has been
known. He went to Paradise fol-
lowing the close of the legislative
session at Carson.
DR.. Elliott was among the first
dentists to enter GOldfield, coming
here in December, 1906. In jan
uary, 1907, he entered into partner
ship with DR.. j. V. Ducey and the
firm built up a large and lucrative
practice. The partnership was later
dissolved and in 1914 DR.. Elliott
was elected to the state senate on
the democratic ticket.
In 1909, he was married to a
Goldfield girl, Miss Crowley, a
daughter of the proprietor of the
San Carlos hotel in the earlier days
of the town.
DR.. Elliott was born in Logans-
port, Ind, and lived there during
his younger days. In 1908 he gra-
duated from the Denver university
and before coming to Goldfield prac-
tised his profession in Victor, Colo.
DR.. Elliot has two brothers, one
in Logansport, Ind, and the other

LOUD EXPLOSION
CAUSE OF ALARM
DYNAMITE PLACED IN REAR OF
MAIN STREET BUILD
ING

An explosion that in the down
town section sounded like the report
of a cannon and that was heard all
over the town occurred shortly after
8 o'clock on Saturday night in a
cabin in the zeal of an unoccupied
building at $40 North Main street.
The explosion is thought to have
been caused by a small quantity of
dynamite placed in the cabin by an
unknown person. 1t did no damage,
as the cabin in which the dynamite
was placed is a shack and the eX-
plosion merely made a hole in the
floor.
At the time of the explosion
Chief of Police Morrison and Night
Officer Benton were standing on the
corner of Main and Hall streets.
Benton ran down Main street and
through the California Beer Hall.
Morrison hurried down the alley and
the two officers reached the scene
in a fraction of a minute, but no
one was anywhere near the cabin,
which was filled with powder smoke
and dust. A large crowd quickly col
lected With the aid of Benton's
fashlight the officers entered the
cabin
The dynamite had evidently been
laid on the floor, which received the
full force of the explosion. A hole
was torn through the boards, but
preserve jars standing on the floor
less than 10 feet away were not
hole in the floor, the interior was
not disturbed by the force of the
explosion, owing to the fact that
the greatest force of exploding dy-
Mantle is exerted in the direction
of most resistance.
Tim Connolly stated to Chief Of
Police Morrison that for an hour
previous to the explosion he had been
sitting in the doorway of his resi-
dence on the corner of Columbia and
Miner streets. The night was clear
and the moon was shining brightly.
Connolly had a clear view of the
cabin in which the explosion oc-
Curreu ana ne states tndt he saw no
che near it.
The explosion is a mystery. The
authorities believe hat the dynamite
was placed for some definite object,
which they are unable to determine.
1t is thought by them that the
charge was carefully placed where
it would not injure anyone and that
it was made small enough to insure
against considerable damage to
property.
Lying directly under the hole in
the floor was found a large iron ball,
estimated to weigh over so pounds.
The ball is of a type used as a
weight on safety devices attached
to steam boilers.

to strike at the presence of insidious
diseases and at alcoholism at all
military camps.
Decisions have beer announced as
follows:
First; that under military con

ed about all military commands as
the most practical and effective mea-
sure to prevent insidious diseases.
Second; that these military
zones shall serve also as a means
of control of alcoholic beverages,

and conditions in these zones will
be guided by military measures so
as to prevent the spread of diseases.

1.-THE council also recommends, as
a further solution of the problem,
that all military commands be pro-
vided with good facilities for the re-
creation of the troops. 1t urges
that all suitable athletics be en-
couraged.
"The use of alcoholic beverages
on the part of the soldiers and sail

been under military control. But
the creation now of these military
zones will in effect extend such con-
troll over the troops when they are

n. C.. 0. CHARGED
WITH VIOLATIONS
JURY SITTING AT
CARSON

The Nevada = California = Oregon
Railroad company was indicted yes
terday by a federal grand jury, sit
ting in Carson City on ten counts
for alleged violation of the Sherman
antitrust law. The trial of the case
probably will be held early in the
summer.
According to the charges OF the
government the company, by the
practice of evasion, has been receiv-
ing fuel oil for it's own consumption,
over the lines of the Southern Pa
cific company, at less than the tariff
rate of that company, in violation
of the interstate commerce laws.
The government claims that this
fuel oil is shipped from the Califor-
MIA fields for storage at Reno where
it is supplied to engines operating
on the MOO. line. That in order
to obtain a rate from the point of
origin less than the tariff rate the
MOO. directed the shipper to con-
sign this oil to Summit, a small way
station on the MOO, north of
Reno, thereby permitting the NC
o. to participate in the through
rate. That such oil was never car
ried to Summit on the MOO. line
but was Immediately stored in tanks
at Reno.
By this arrangement, it was as
serted by the government, that the
MOO. received a 81 rebate on
each ton of oil, paying only $3.50
a ton freight while other
paid $3.50.
