Couldn't Lose the Pattern.

Mary and Nellie, two small sisters. went to visit at grandmOther's in the country. Since it was their first visit away from the city they found much to please and delight them. The chickens were their particular favorites and hunting the newly laid eggs their chief pleasure.
 "Bs careful. children" said grand mother one day, mot to take away the nest egg" So the girls guarded 1t carefully. One day, however, when they were trying to see who could A4d the larger number of eggs Mary Rp- preached the nest first. Seizlng the nest egg she started for the house.
 ~Oh, grandmother" cried Nellie, hurrying after her sister, "Mary'S got tho egg the old hen measures by."

The Rese Man,

He persisted In saying that he waS going to be calm, cool and collected when he was married, but on his wedding morning he nearly had ner- ypus prOstFRtiOD when he couldn't ind the ring. The best man produced 1t. Then he went to the church without the license, and the best man had to !. return for. it. While waiting for. the bridal party to march down the aisle the poor bridegroom actually needed physical support, his knees were shak- ing 90. The best. man was discOur. aged and dlsgusted, and finally in deS- peratlOn leaned toward the bride groom and whispered In his ear, "I1 you've got cold fseG pu marry her for $1O0Oi"

depicted not only for the entertain ment of the public, but as well fol the education and intellectual uplift of the race.
 In this day of the high cost O1 living the manager of this theatre has never lowered the standard but insists that the best is none too good for the people of this part of the country. While the class of product. ions that he shows cost a little more than the ordinary kind, yet he has refused to lower his standards.
 In making this review of the on ward progress of the county we are glad to compliment the management upon the good that is accruing to the community through his progressive efforts in furnishing the people with all that is new in the whole range of human endeavOr and life.

every patron of the concern is also a loyal supporter and a consistent booster for it.
 Nor has the management and asso- ciates in the company been satisfied with merely providing for the imms. diate needs of the people of the sec tion. With a broad vision of the fu- ture they have made improvements with the view of greater expansion of their service and have been mOst loyal supporters in the movement for a Greater Home County"
 It is not necessary here that we de- tail the many desirable features of their service to the public.
 In conclusion, however, we wi&h to state the manager and assistants have always taken commendable interest in all propositions that furthered public improvements and that they have been willing and anxious to aid in the expansion and growth of the county at all times.

Vote During Encampment.


Fort Mill militia officers yester-
day were informed by the mill
tary department in Columbia that
the second rum over election be-
tween Capt. +. M. Mack of Fort
Mill and Capt. A. Nd. Mcleod of
Camden for major of the Sd bat
TALON, First regiment, N. G. s. c.,
will be held during the encamp-
ment of the regiment at Mount
Pleasant next month. In the two
former elections six votes have
Seen cast for each of the candi-
dates. The four companies in
the Sd battalion are located at
Rock Hill, Camden, Fort Mill and
Hartsville, and the impression is
that the Rock Hll and Fort Mill
officers are supporting Capt. Mack
while the officers of the Camden
and Hartsville companies are
for Capt. Mcleod.

wHzN NIoHr suRaEHDzRs,

Sunset and twilight are too fa-
miliar to command the conspicu-
ons attention Of all tue people of
the workaday world, says The
State. Yet probably there are
few SO sodden and matter-of-fact
as never to know mood of SEN
sitiveness to the spectacle of fad
ing day and the stealthy oncom-
ing night. 1t is apt to be a
vaguely sad regretful mood for
the dying of another day always
symbolizes the transitory nature
of all things in our world. There
is. innate protest against the long
farewell to d day that will re-
turn no more, whether to repeat
for us its gift of joy or it's meas
nre of opportunity.
About the dawn of new day,
however, there is a wholly diff
ferent aspect. As spectacle the
glory Of it is matchless. 1t is
youth, not age. 1t is the triumph
Of light, not darkness. 1t is the
coming with new opportunity,
not the departure with record
written. 1t is stimulating, not
depressing, and shines with hopes
not yet dashed or deferred. An
-tother day is another chance. With
dawn comes the morning, which
is fresh, unweary and suffused
with eager forwardness of look.
Yesterday-it is gone, but here
is another day just as good.
They-and how many there are
who never witness the breaking
of new day are losers, who miss
one of natures grandest displays
and start their days in stale mo-
notony of habit, without the ini-
tial refreshment of soul and sub
tle stimulus to renewed purpose.
II is a pity. As some one has said
if man had never seen a sunset
or sunrise, he would travel half
the globe to see the infinite won
der and grandeur of it. To see
dawn and sunrise, however, he
merely needs to awake and. be
astir little earlier than is custo-
Hary. 1t is warth the cost every
time. If he be one to whom it
does not seem so, then it is a
pity, indeed.

License of Doubtful Value
To BedweII.

BALTIMORE. July 9.-The State
racing commission has granted II.
Guy Bedwell a license as a horse
trainer, but before doing SO adopted,
by a vote of to /, a resolution
the effect OF which will make the
license, or any other license granted
by the commission. OF doubtful value.
The resolution, which was offered
by Commissioner Jervis Spencer, jr,
and supported by Chairman James A.
Latane, recites that the attorney gem
eral had made a ruling defining the
powers of the commission in grant
ing licenses, and that licenses grant
ed by the commission are not to be
considered as a mandate to the race
track managers; that II any license
should be rejected by the track man
ayers the racing commission will not
interfere in any action so taken by
the tracks.
The effect OF the resolution, which
Commissioner Timanus opposed, is TO
notify the managers of Pimlico, and
Laurel, who have been opposing the
licensing of Bedwell as q trainer and
of Carroll II. Shilling as a jockey, that
II they refuse to permit them to en-
ter on the racetracks the racing COM
mission will not back up the licenses.
Carville ID. Benson. who appeared
as counsel for Bedwell. protested Wig
orously, and pointed out to the COM
mission that the resolution would
have the effect of encouraging the
track managers to reject the licenses
OF the racing commission.

Carpenter.
