Celebrated Gath Birthday.

For the past several years in cele-
brating the anniversary of his birth
day Mr.. j. w. Reese has invited a
number of his friends to share the
pleasure of the occasion with him.
Saturday he arranged to give one of
these very enjoyable private barbe-
cues on the .64th anniversary of his
birth, and invited a score or more
of his friends to be present. Soon af-
ter the guests arrived delightful
barbecued dinner was served on a.
long table under the trees in his yard.
After divine blessings were invoked
upon the occasion, the host and his
family all partook of the bountiful
feast, which was seasoned to the
kings taste. All fingered for a sea-
son of pleasant conversation after
the feast, wishing before they depart
ed many, many yet happy years for
Mr.. Reese.

During his long illness Mr.. Nor

disease which gradually sapped his
vitality and he also had the best at

but all were in vain. Death claimed
him after many weary months of suf-
fering. The Advertiser extends sin

ones of this widely beloved young

of his activities and usefulness.

CONTEMPT FOR PROHIBITION
BREEDS CONTEMPT FOR
ALL LAW.

"Contempt for prohibition laws
tends to breed contempt for all other
laws, and disrespect and constituted
authority" declares the Minneapolis
Tribune. "That is such serious thing
in it's effect upon the national morale
that it lays upon Congress and the
legislatures the obligation to do
everything they can to overcome the
tendency. 1t is high time now-after
a year and half of wartime and
peace-time prohibition-to get stern
ly down to the business of compelling
the respect and obedience that have
not been volunteered. No matter what
the cost, Congress should provide
the money and the men needed for
this compulsion of adherence to a
law with the essential terms of which
every man of sound mind is familiar.
1t lies upon the legislature of every
state to provide the necessary ma
chinery for its own proper enforce
ment part, if existing Instrumental
ties are insufficient. 1t lies upon the
federal and state courts to drive home
upon the violators memorable ad-
monishments that the power and dig
nifty of the United States and of the
state are not to be trifled with. 1t lies
upon good citizens to cooperate
heartily with accredited authorities
in putting down illegal traffic in in
toxicants."- Union Signal.

Ordinarily it is rule of the diff

to have the regular meetings of the

National idea of the time to have

to be governed by the conditions in

the matters up with all the members

decided to postpone the regular meet

of the fact that meeting on the

Capt. Blocker's Home Burned

Last Wednesday about clever
o'clock the home of Capt. j. R
Blocker, seven miles north of Edge
field on the Ninety Six road, was to,
tally destroyed by fire. As Capt
Blocker was having some cotton re-
planted in a field about six hundred
wards from his house he happened to
observe a volume of dense smoke
rising above the roof of his stove
room. He at once rushed for the
house. Mrs. Blocker, Mrs. Emma
Blocker, Capt. Blocker's aged moth
er, and Miss Emma Blocker were in
the house arranging for dinner, but
not until Capt. Blocker reached the
house and gave the alarm did they
know that the roof had caught fire.
He made an effort to extinguish the
flames but the fire had burned its
way through the roof into the attic,
which made it impossible for one in
dividual to accomplish anything. See
ing that his efforts were futile, he
at once turned his attention to saw
ing the furniture. He observed col
ored man, Mrs. Blocker and Miss
Emma Blocker rolling the piano out
on the piazza and he went to their
assistance. AS the instrument was be-
ing carried down the steps it became
unbalanced and in some way fell UP
on Mrs. Blocker, injuring her quite
seriously and instead of giving fur
ther attention to removing other fur
uiture Mrs. Blocker's very painful
injury made it necessary to give her
attention first In this way practl-
cally nothing except the piano was
saved. Mrs. Emma Blocker had $56
in cash in her purse which she laid
upon a table in order to same some
pieces of silver, and in the excitement
forgot where she laid her purse and
1t was burned. Capt. Blocker carried
insurance to the amount Of $4,000
but his loss was in the neighborhood
of eight or ten thousand dollars. The
friends of Capt. and Mrs. Blocker
sympathize with them deeply in their
heavy loss. Capt Blocker had his home
burned on the same spot about 22
years ago.
