Scouts, why worry about taking
candy, soda water, peanuts, chewing
gum and the like 70 the rally?
Through the efforts Of four scouts,
namely Robert L. Macconel, Leo De
Roo, Chas. Akana and James Hol-
stein, we have succeeded IN obtaining
permission to establish boy scout
cantseu at the rally. There are enor-
nous freight charges on these things,
but owing to the Kindness OF Scout
Commissioner Burnham We have been
able to pay half rates for shipping
them with the scout stuff. Scouts,

" OF mHffktWAII

We have now another Eagle Scout
In the Hawaiian islands, namely Rob
eFt L. Macconel, formerly of Troop
VIII but now transferred TO Troop
Nv. He has the honor Of attaining
the rank OF Eagle Scout exactly one
year after he had been sworn in as
Tenderfoot, the lowest rank In the
boy scout organization. After pass
ing his tenderfoot tests he took his
second and first class tests, which
he passed at the end Of four months.
He was sworn In as first class scout
on June "a, 1915. This scout then
was entitled to take merit badges and
had the honor Of being awarded his
first merit badge on HIS birthday, July
3. This merit badge was swimming
and 1t paved the way for other badges
which he soon obtained. He was the
sixth life scout, and had the honor
OF being the third star scout In the
territory He then had TO 60 through
the work of drawing map, con.
structing bridge across q gulch and
then finally building shack which
three occupants could live in. He sue
ceeded in passing all OF his Eagle
tests on April II, 1917, which made
him the fourth Eagle scout Of Hawaii,
but owing TO q mistake on the part
OF HIS troop, he was not registered
until some time later.
Scout Macconel joined Troop VIII
on February s. 1916, and was the first
one enrolled under its banners. Dur
ing his stay Of one year and a half
with this troop he held the offices
OF scribe, junior and senior leader. He
has succeeded in passing Is merit
badges which have been awarded to
him on various occasions. He will
probably be presented with his Eagle,
badge on Saturday, August Is, by Gov.
Pinkham, just before the boys take
the machines for the big scout rally
&C Waialua.
The Is merit badges which he has
are TOR athletics, automobiling, bird
study, business, camping, carpentry,
cigics, cooking, cycling, electricity,
firemanship, firstaid, first-aid to ami
mails, horsemanship, life-saving, ma.

FLAMES DESTROY
YORK BUILDING
Fire in Heart of Business District.
Bank and Postoffice With Business
and Professional Men Lost
Contents of Offices.

York, Jan. 8.-The most destruc-
tive fire in the history of York oc-
Cured this morning shortly after 8
o'clock when the McNeill building,
a two-story brick structure on Main
street in the heart of the business
district burned, entailing a loss of
approximately $4,000.
The first story of the building was
occupied by the Loan & Savings bank,
the York Hardware company, the
postoffice and w. E. Ferguson gro
cery, while on the second floor were
the offices of DR.. j. j. Glenn, physi-
clan; Drs. Cartwright and Jones, den
fists; Henry C. Allen, architect: the
Lindsay insurance agency, the quar-
ters of the York public library and
the White Rose club.
With the exception of the furniture,
mail, stamps and papers in the post
office everything in the entire build
ing outside the quarters of the Loan
q Savings bank was lost.
The quarters occupied by the bank
were separated from the remainder
of the building by a thick brick wall
and were practically fire proof. Heavy
damage, however, was done to the
fixtures and furniture of the bank by
water.
With the exception of Drs. Cart
wright and Jones and the York pub
lie library none of the occupants of
the second story carried any insur-
ance and the loss is heavy. The York
Hardware company, however, was the
heaviest sufferer its stock being valued
at $4,000 on which there was $4,000
insurance. w. E. Ferguson's stock of
groceries was valued at about ST.
500 on which there was less than
81 900 insurance.
The building, which was erected
about seven years ago at a cost of
$4,000, was insured for $4,000. 1t
was owned by Mrs. S. M. Mcneil and
was decidedly the best business build
ing in York.
The origin of the fire has not been
definitely determined but it is thought
to have started in a pile of waste
paper at the foot of the rear stair
way. Many think, however, that this
was a secondary blaze as it is hardly
probable that the flames could have
made such rapid headway unless there
was fire elsewhere. Several occupants
of the second story were trapped in
the burning structure, DR.. j. ].
Glenn, DR.. A. Y. Cartwright and DR..
Charles Jones making their escape
through the windows by means of lad
ders.
The York fire department was on
the scene within few minutes after
the alarm was turned in but the prog
ress that had been made by the fire,

HE DESERVES SUCCESS.
Mr.. Demos Jones, Greenwood County
Boy, Does Not Let Blindness
Handicap Him.

Lawyers, by the ethics of the pro-
fession, just as doctors, are not al
lowed to advertise. Too frequent no
tices are taboo with the profession.
There are exceptions, however, and
this is one and it will be total sur
prise to the young man who is men
toned. He does not know anything
about, it at all and therefore it does
not come under the ban.
To the average man, a man who is
blind has handicap in a profession
but not so to the blind man himself
with ambition. One of the striking
and winsome figures in the United
States Senate is Sen. Thos. p. Gore. of
Oklahoma. He attracts by his win
ming personality and then his masterp
of statistics is most wonderful. He
can make a speech that is a specch
and worth listening to-. In South
Carolina State Superintendent of Edu-
cation John E. Swearingen is an ex-
ample of what man can do even if
he has this handicap of the loss o..
sight when the man has ambition and
determination. England's greatest
Postmaster General Fawcette showed
what could be don under :.imilar
handicaps. Out in Wisconsin, the
head Of the State Hospital for Tubers
culosis patients is blind man and he
is good one.
Mr.. Jones has completed his col
legiate course, has been admitted to
the bar and is now a member of the
Greenwood bar. He has his Office on
the third floor of the Fire Proof
building. He lost his sight when abou,
IL years old by the explosion of a
cartridge in a parlor rifle. The acci-
dent did not dampen his ardor or am
bition to get an education. He went
to Cedar Springs Institute and when
he had completed the course there he
entered the University of South Car
olina. He completed the academic
course and also the course in the law
school, being graduated this year with
the degree of A. B. and with the de-
gree Of L. B. also. Messrs. Douglas
Featherstone, ]. Franklin Davis and
T. Moreland Crymes were members Of
his class from this county. The first
two named are also lawyers here. Mr..
Crymes is taking special course in
law at the Harvard Law School.
Mr. Jones is determined to succeed
and his course is to be highly COM
mended. There are numbers of peo-
pie who will be interested in him and
this is simply to introduce him to the
people of Greenwood county.-Green-

STILL DESTROYED
IN HEART OF CITY

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 9.-Discovery and
destruction of a full-fedged distillery
in the heart of Atlanta has convinced
the United States internal revenue
officers operating out of this city that
the remote Businesses of the north
Georgia mountains are not the only
places where moonshine liquor can be
made.
Tipped off by friends of the police
to the existence of the distillery in
Atlanta, the officers found a regular
cavern excavated under a dwelling
house on Fair street, and in it they
found 1,500-gallon outfit running
full blast. The dug-out was 20 feet
deep or more, was lighted entirely by
electricity, and the distillery was con-
nected with the chimney of the
house, with special passage led off
to a sewer for disposing of the re-
fuse of the liquor plant.
Since Georgia's new and drastic
prohibition laws went into effect last
May l, there has developed an as
tonishing blind tiger traffic in corn
liquor, which, being a home product
manufactured within the State, is
easier to get than rye and other
brands imported from wet territory.

thing further than confining the
flames to the building in which they
had originated utterly out of the
question.

Rock Hill fire department came on

tically over when the Rock Hill con-
tihgent arrived. Effective work, how
ever, was done by the Rock Hill fire.
men in helping to extinguish the
flames still burning around the Loan
Savings bank and threatening to
gain entrance to the quarters of that
institution.
An incident of the fire was the ex-
plosion of cartridges in the York
Hardware company continuing for 30
minutes.
The work of finding new quarters
for the firms rendered homeless by
the fire began this afternoon. The
postoffice has been moved to the
ODeary building and w. E. Ferguson
has reopened with a new stock of
goods in his old stand in the Moore
building, which he vacated several
weeks ago following fire. The Loan
& Savings link will move tomorrow
morning to the quarters it occupied
prior to the occupancy of the Nc
Neill building and all persons who
had Offices in the building will be
demociled within a day or two.
