An interesting social event of the
past week in Newborn was the meet¬
ing of the Sewing Club last Thurs¬
day night at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Green Mitchell. The ladies of
the Club were invited to meet at
that home for that week, and also
were invited to come bringing their
husbands with them. Unfortunately
a bad rain had to interfere with the
elaborate plans made for the even¬
ing’s entertainment. However, a
goodly company gathered and enjoy¬
ed the evening to the fullest ex¬
tent. The house was decorated ap¬
propriately for the season, the color
scheme of white and green being car¬
ried out. As each guest entered,
punch was served. Also peach and
banana cream with old faishioned
pound cake,, and spice, caramel and
ehocalate cake were served in abun¬
dance. Amusing games were played,
Airs. G. T. Chandler winning the
prize, which was a hand-painted wa¬
ter color picture.

Orphans’ Home work day was ap¬
propriately kept by the people of

efit of this cause was given by the
pupils of the Sunday .school.
A debate at the school house was
enjoyed by the school body last Fri¬

or reading during the afternoon were,
Jeanne Carter, Sarah Gay, Ethel Es¬
tes, Alma Davis, Lizzie Davis, Eliza¬
beth Benton, Fred Connor, J. R. Es¬

COLE BLEASE REFUSES
TO SEND MILITIA.
Carolina Governor Says Situation Near
Augusta Does Not Demand Action
Augusta, Ga., October 7.—Respond¬
ing today to the telegram of Sheriff
Raborn for aid in handling the strike
situation in Aiken county, Governor
Blease has declined to issue a milita¬
ry order, and says no cars should be
operated.
The governor's telegram to the
sheriff says: “I would suggest to
the superintendent not to attempt to
tun cairs on this side of the river, as
they do not carry the necessities of
life or United States mail, until the
people quiet down.” He further says,
“The present situation does not jus¬
tify me in sending the militia.”
Sheriff Raborn is ordered by the
governor to poeeed to swear warrants
for the arrest of the 600 men in the
North Augusta mob of yesterday.
As to future action, the governor
says: “If cars do not run aaid strik¬
ers begin to injure the tracks or de
stoy property, I will see that it is
protected.” The telegram is signed
“Cole L Blease, governor of South
Carolina.”
Error In Name.
In the last issue of the New's in
the administrator’s sale advertisement
of J. S. Bridges an error was made
by the printer in one of the names
therein. The types made the adver¬
tisement say that the land was sold
“as the property of Mrs. Ada R. Sall
ter, deceased, for the payment of
debts and distribution among the
heirs.” As a matter of fact, the ad¬
vertisement should have stated that
the land wa(s that of Mrs. N. H.
Bridges, and is being sold for distri¬
bution and payment of debts.
In this case we are glad to make
the necessary correction.
