District U. D. C. Conference

The Edgefeld delegate was never
more delighted than to find herself
domiciled with that delightful Barn
well-Aiken-Edgefeld family, the Ham
monds. Old Major Spann Hammond
is the last remaining son of the nota-
BILE Governor James H. Hammond
and while 85 years old, has mind of
great brilliancy and his retrospect
was as clear as in man many years
younger.
There surrounded by the many
evidences of his families former
grandeur, he lives a quiet life with
his devoted help mate, who was Miss
Hanson Dunbar of Beech Island.
They have two sons, DR.. Dunbar Ham
!mond of Blackville and Mr.. Jas. h.
Hammond Of Columbia.
The conference was entertained
at delightful informal reception at
the home of Mrs. Rich, after which
automobiles were provided to take
the visitors and delegates to the Ma
sonic Hall where a lovely, lovely
luncheon was served. Never was there
more tasteful and simple decora tions
or a more sumptuous feast served in
three courses-canteloupes Tor the
frst-for the second, a half chicken
on toast, peas en- casserole, creamed
potatoes, tomatoes with mayonnaise
dressing, dainty rolls, ice tea. For. the
dessert, ice cream in red blocks and
square white cakes with a Confeder-
ate flags done in the icing. There was
merriment and jollity in spite of the
inclement weather.
Mrs. Black gave very happy
toast to the Davis Lee Chapter,
which is the baby chapter in our
District and numbers only "a men,
bers. "II rs to health, wealth and
growth"
At the school building our session
was held. The reports were all very
good, but the principle thing for
which this conference will be remem-
bered is that it was decided to give
a hundred >.ollar liberty bond, which
the district purchased last year by
25 cents subscriptions to the 1917
1918 Hero educational fund. That
leaves us with fifty dollar bond and
a bonus of about S14 in the district
funds. Our Winthrop scholarship for
this year is assured. This scholarship
is vacant now and it would be good
thing if some of our girls would ap-
ply for it. 1t is worth $100 and free
tuition. Admission is by examination,
the applicant being descendant of
someone who served in the war be-
tween the States. The application
has to be signed by the cha pter pres
ident and sent to Miss Armida Moses,
Sumter, S. C. Any girl wishing to
apply for the scholarship should stand
the regular Winthrop examination
on Friday, July 4th, and write to Miss
Moses for application blanks.
The Aiken women got ahead of us
in the matter of entertaining the con-
ference next spring. They did a good
deal of lobbying so when a call was
made for invitations Edgefeld only
received 23 out of the 67 votes cast.
They voiced the wish to come here
next time however. Altogether, it
was most delightful and successful
conference.

NEW ERA MOVEMENT BOOSTED
Presbyterian Conference Receives
Message From the President.

Lake Geneva, Wis, Sept. 2.-Presi-
dent Wilson was applauded by fellow
Presbyterians from all parts of the
United States when message from
him as an elder in the Presbyterian
church was read by. DR.. William.
Hiram Foulkes, general secretary, to
the staff officers and field delegates
Of the Presbyterian new era move
ment in conference here. President
Wilson'S message was as follows:
Il am deeply interested in the char
acter and purposes of the new era
movement Of the Presbyterian church
in the U. s. A. / shall follow that
movement with the greatest interest
and, / need not add, with the deep
est sympathy. That the church
should devote itself to these great
purposes of service and enlighten-
ment is an evidence, 1t seems to me,
of its true Interpretation of the spirit
Of the Gospel and of its vitality as
an instrument of high public service
in the nation.

KENosHA WOMAN DEAD
Mrs. Lavinia j. Lafayette, Widow of

Kenosha industries will be shipping
to Europe entirely by water within
three weeks and not only that but Ke
nosha will have better shipping facili-
ties than either Chicago or Milwaukee,
declares A. S. Hubenthal, one Of the
Waukegan managers Of the Hill Boat
Line.
81 was in consultation with Chicago
authorities yesterday, and arrangements
are proceeding rapidly to make Chica-
90, Milwaukee, Keposha and Wauke-
gan, and other lake cities, ocean ports
as far as transportation to Europe and
Africa are concerned, said Mr.. Hub
entha1. seThose backing the plan are
endeavoring to secure regular ocean
freight rates for goods shipped from
here to Europe. If this is accomplish
ed and such an arrangement is thought
very probable, industries here will be
able to ship to foreign countries at an
infinitely lower cost.
"Kenosha and Waukegan will have
better transportation facilities than
Milwaukee or Chicago, from which
ports boats will depart for Europe,
since goods will be. accepted here for
both cities 50 local industries will have
double service while Chicago industries
and Milwaukee industries must wait
for boats leaving the respective ports, =
he declared.
If present plans develop the first
boat will leave Chicago for Rotterdam,
Holland in three weeks. Mr.. Huben-
thai expects blanks for cargo space to
reach here soon and .Waukegan bust
ness men can reserve space in the yes
sci. The next vessel after that viii go
to Hamburg, Germany, and others will
go to England or various other Euro
pean countries.
Ii Kenosha or Waukegan factory
has a consignment for a foreign coun-
try, they need only to reserve space in
the vessel leaving Milwaukee or Chi
cago through Mr.. Hubenthal and bring
their exports to the Hill warehouse.
The goods will be taken to either city
designated and transferred directly to
the boat. The vessel, bound for Eu
rope will then leave by the lake route
to the Welland Canal and out the St.
Lawrence river to the Atlantic.
Boats have already left Chicago for
foreign ports demonstrating the prae-
ticability of the plan and now the pro-
ject is being put on commercial basis.

Big Ice House On Lake
Elizabeth Totally Destroy
ed BY Fire Just After
Six O'Clock This A. NJ.
BOARDING HOUSE IS RUINED
Origin Of Fire Is Unknown But It Was
One of the Most Spectacular In Ke-
nosha County - Loss Is Estimated
At Near 100000.

The town Of Randall had one of the
biggest fires in its history just after
six o'clock this morning when the big
ice houses of the Esch Ice Company, of
Chicago, located on the west side of
Lake Elizabeth, was completely de-
stroyed. The flames spread to an adj
joining boarding house and it was ruin
ed. The loss from the fire is estimated
in the neighborhood of sixty thousand
dollars and it is said to be partially
covered by insurance. Officials of the
company could not be reached, but peo-
pie living near the ice house declared
that the origin Of the fire was mystery
Nearly all of the ice had been removed
from the house some time ago and it
was filed with dry sawdust. Eight OF
ten men are employed by the company
in the neighborhood of the house, but
they had not been in the building
this morning.
Tho flames broke out just after six
CLOCK at the northwest corner Of the
building and as the house was entirely
Of wood they spread like lightning
The smoke from the burning ice houses
was carried in clouds all over the rec
tion of the county Only meagre efforts
were made to stop the spread of the
flames as it was evident that there was
no chance of saving the building.
The big Esch house was erected
about ten years ago It has very
large capacity and was known as Sly
room house, 1t has been in use by the
Chicago company since its erection anc
had been one of the principal shipping
points for the company in the Twin
Lakes district
No statement was forthcoming as tt
whether or not the house would be
rebuilt.
