DEATH OF INFANT
Little Carrie Thurman.

On Thursday morning, July 26th,
the Death angel visited the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. p. Thurman, Jr., Of
Ruby, and bore away the Spirit of
their little babe.
Little Carrie was about 13 months
old, sweet and affectionate child,
loved and admired by everyone that
knew her, and though the little dar-
ling had been sick long time and
suffered much, it was hard to give up
the precious little jewel. Nothing
that loving hands or medical aid could
do was neglected, however God in his
almighty wisdom saw fit to take the
little one home to Him.
The little body was laid to rest the

DEVELOPING MORE POWER
AT TEAL'S MILL PROPERTY

DR.. d. T. Teal some weeks ago be-
gan the development of the water
power at his mill pond on the Society
Hill Road halfway between Chester
field and Cheraw.
with the improvements being made
Dr. Teal hopes to develope about 200
horsepower, using three 100 hors,-
power turbines. The pond cover
about 800 acres and contains en- onor-
nous amount of water.
The doctor has not yet made known
his plans in detail. 1t is assumed that
he will either build large mill and
gin and thus use his power or he NAV
convert it into electricity for lighting
and industrial purposes.
One thing is certain, there will be
use for all the power devcloped.
1t is hoped that in this entcrnr;so
nc is being encouraged by other pub
Ic-spiritcd citizens. Us dcvclop,,ents
Of this nature are of vital Importance

 NUMEROUS SPIES
By Associated Press.

PETROGRAD, Aug. S.-That the late Czar Nicholas s maintained an ex- tensive espionage system was uni versally known but that the number of paid spies and informers on the imperial payroll numbered nearly one hundred thousand persons is a matter entirely new to the public.
 committee appointed by the pro- visional government to look into the spy system maintained by the late emperor has discovered that at least eighty thousand persons were em- plOyed by the czar as spies and in formers. The committee has already secured the names of large portion of the persons connected with th1s extensive spy army and has publish ed thirty lists containing the name and Ulace of residence of salaried spies and informers most of which were taken from private accounts be- longing to the deposed czar. In ad- dition to the salaried spies. there are fifty names listed by the committee under the heading of "assistants." It is expected that further investiga = ton will increase the list of espion age employees to nearly one hundred thousand.
