gangs.
Spartanburg. May 23.-Approximate-
ly 42O laborers who have been engaged
IA working upon the roads Of Spar
tanburg county will necessarily be
thrown out Of employment as a result
Of the inability Of the coun'y to pro-
vide sufficient funds for It's mainten-
ance OF road construction. Attorneys
have advised the county that it has it's
limit Of bonds now and cannot issue
more without amendment to the con-
sritution of the state Of South Caro-
lima
The legislature at it's last session
authorized two bond issues. ono of
$"30,OOO and the other Of $125,OOO. In
addition, the legislature appropriated
$4,000 for highway purposes, this
amount to be divided among the vari
Gus township commissioners and the
county supervisor. The total bonded
Indebtedness OF Spartanburg county.
including city, road and school bonds,
will exhaust the amount permitted by
law when the issue OF $l25,O0O for
back Indebtedness Is sold. The law
fixes the amount that any one depart
ment OF single unit may issue at 8
Per cent. However the total for all
departments may not exceed Il per
cent. This leaves the county highway
commission without sufficient funds to
prosecute the work now under way In
Spartanburg county.
All hired help will be discontinued
and the county roads will be maintain
ed only by the county chaingang.
At a meeting Of the Spartanburg
county delegation yesterday the bor-
rowing OF $4,000 was authorized, this
amoLnt to make possible the main
tcnance OF the chaingang.

DEATH OF MRS. l.. A. LiNGsTON
hntiye Of Lanrcns Dies In Darlington
Her Adopted Home.


The following account of the dcatl,
OF Mrs. l.. A. Langston, which ap-
, 2eared in the Darlington News and
Press Of May 10Th, will be read with
/ sorrow BY tho friends and relatives OF
the deceased in this county:
The friends Of Colonel and Mrs. J
II. Langston will sorrow with them in
the death Of the mother OF Colonc
l-angston, Mrs. j.. A. Langston
While Mrs. Langston had not beer
we'll for some months and 1t was real.
lied that her condition was serious tc
one Of her advanced years, the end
came with most unexpected sudden,
ness Sunday evening at 7 o'clock
when, surrounded by her dear ones
shc peacefully breathed her last.
Last November, while visiting her
nephew, W. NJ. Langston, in Charlotte
\. c., Mrs. Langston had severe at
tack OF pneumonia, and was for some
weeks in the hospital there. This at
tack was followed by an illness OF
some weeks caused by pleurisy, and
from these two attacks she never en-
tircly regaincd her strength. Every
possible attention was given her by
her devoted son, with whom she had
for many years, made her home, but
all OF this was Of no avail. and she
went quietly to her reward after q
long :nd useful life.
Mrs. Uangston was born in Lau-
rens November 20, 1850, and was in
her seventy-first year when she died
She was the widow OF l.. A. Langston
who died April 3, 1915, and she was
buried by his side Monday afternoon
at $3.50 o'clock, Rev. d. NJ. Fulton con
Quoting the services. Mrs. Langston
was Of strong Characteristics, woman
ly and true in all things. She was a
consistent member Of the First Bap-
tist church, faithful in all things, and
doing good by her steadfast example
and usefulness. In spite Of lowering
clouds and rain, many friends assem-
bled to pay a Inst tribute to her mem
'ory,Tand the floral tokens were num-
erous and beautiful. Mrs. Langston is
survived by her only child, our os-
teemed fellowcitizen, Colonel John T.
Langston; one sister, Mrs. M l.. Law
son, OF Laurens, and by one brother,
DR.. G.. f. Moseley, Of Union. The pail
bearers were Messrs. c. w. Skinner,

SIIRINERS TO Sch
FOUR ACT COMEDY

"Belierc Me, Xantippc" TO be One OF
Features OF Spring Ceremonial This
Week in Greenyillc.
Local Shriners arc toeing the mark
with an anxious thought toward Green
vile as the spring ceremonial of Hciaz
Temple will be held there Thursday
and all Shriners in this section arc cx-
pected to be there.
Among the attractions provided for
the Shriners will be the four act com
edy Believe Me, Xanuppe," staged
by patients and nurses at the y. S.
Public Health service hospital at
Camp Sewer. 1t is Harvard prize
comedy and was written by Frederick
Ballard. The play was gotten up the
Dramatic club at the United States
Public Health Service Hospital and
was shown at the camp hospital in
March, being repeated more recently
at the Grand Opera House in Green
vile. No play which has been given
at the Grand by local talent has met
with such general approval and ere
atcd such favorable comment as Be
lieve Me. Xantippe." In the acting
it is not difficult for even the unini-
tiated to recognize talent that is not
local except that the actors are
sojourning at Greenville's Camp Hos
pital. Before the war undermined
their health, many OF them were pro-
fcssional actors. The entire cast is
composed Of patients and nurses at
the L. S. p. II. S. Hospital The seen
cry used in the previous performances
was painted by patients at the hos
pital. The show Is just one laugh
after another with little touch OF
pathos and romance to add spice 70
the whole.
No Shriner should think OF leaving
Greenville on Thursday until he has
witnessed this performance and aD-
sorbcd sufficient laughs to last until
the next ceremonial.
