Over $125,000 Loss in Threaten ing Fire at Winston-Salem. Winston-Salem Special 17th. to Charlotte Ob. Fire discovered at 6:15 to night gave the city firemen hours of hard work and result ed in the complete loss of the old Casper building, occupying a position in the heart of the manufacturing district. The fire reached such threatening proportions at one time that the Greensboro department was asked to have help ready to leave on moment's notice, but after two hours of fighting the flames were confined to the building in which they started, with the exception of several dwelling houses close by which were partially destroyed. The fire was the most spec tacular in years and, coming at the supper hour, drew fully 10,000 people to the scene, light ing the heavens for miles around. Stored in the building, which was five stories high, brick con- , struction and running through ; from Church to Depot streets, was 30,000 pounds of leaf to- bacco, all of which was consum ed, lhe tobacco was the prop erty of Coleman Brothers, ex tensive buyers on the local mar ket, and their day's purchases had just been added to the stock when the fire was discovered on the top floor. The building was owned by John Jasper of Jack sonville, Fla., and C. O. Smith deal and was valued at about $60,000. The tobacco was worth a like amount, while damage to surrounding property will run the total fully $10,000 or $15, 000 more. On the lower floor were the mail order offices of R. C. Click, local merchant, whose loss was complete. All the property was partially insured, the exact fig ures not being obtainable to night. Adjoining the burned property was the extensive fac tory building of P. H. Hanes & Co., manufacturers of under wear, and only the hardest kind of fighting with favorable wind, saved them from catching and probably communicating to the Reynolds tobaco plant, close by. The private fire department of the R. J. Reynolds Company was called out, and did splendid service in assisting the city de partment. The origin of the blaze is unknown. The Outlook for 1916. Statesville Landmark -f" - The election is a closed' inci dent, but it is just as well to have in mind the facts as to the 1 result. The Democrats have 31 majority over the Republicans in the House of Congress and a majority of about 15 in the Sen ate an increase over the pres ent majority. This year Uni ted States Senators were elect ed by the people for the first time. It is reasonable to as sume that the States that elect ed Democratic Senators or gave a Democratic majority for State officers would have cast their votes for President Wilson had he been a candidate this year On that basis, had this been a presidental election year, the Democrats would have had 307 votes in the electoral college, the Republicans 220. The claim of the ReDublicans that the re suit indicates a Republican vir- tory in 1916 is not borne out by an analysis of the votes on the 3d: the result in 1916 will de pend on the prosperity of the country at that time. If the country is prosperous it will be : cenerallv conceded that Demo cratic policies have made good; if it is not, the Democrats will oe held responsible, whether they are to blame or not. A Billion of Money and a Million Men For the War. The House of Commons of the British Parliament granted on Monday, the 16th, without a dis senting vote, Premier Asquith's request for a vote of $225,000,- 000 pounds ($1,125,000,UUU) and another 1,000,000 soldiers The Prime Minister charac terized the crisis as "the great est emergency in which the country ever has been placed He said 1,200,000 men already were under arms; that the war was costing nearly $5,000,000 a day and that the government proposed to lend Belgium $50,- 000.000 and Servia $4,000,000 without interest, until the end of the war.

MAR- Social Events in Morganton in Honor of Mrs. Hemphill. From the Ridgewood Herald of Nov. 19th, published at Ridgewood, N. J., the home of the bride, we take the following account of the marriage of Mr. Joktan Hemphill, son of Mr. and Mrs. T. L. Hemphill, of Morgan ton, and Miss Alice Silleck: "On Saturday evening, at the home of the bride, in the pres ence of 130 guests, were mar ried Miss Alice Silleck, only daughter of Charles Dayton Silleck, of 117 Spring avenue, and Joktan Lafayette Hemphill of Schenectady, N. Y., the Rev. J. A. Van Neste, pastor of the First Reformed Church, of which the bride has long been a member, officiating. The house had been decorated by Florist Barkham with a pro fusion of palms, Southern smil ax, pink chrysanthemums, snap dragons and roses. The veran das were enclosed, and decorat ed with autumn leaves and ever greens. At half after seven o'clock, to the nuptial music from "Lohen grin," the bridal party descend ed the stairs and entered the liv ing room where the ceremony was performed. The ushers, Howard R. Law rence of this village, and Lenoir Avery, of New York City, were followed by the two matrons of honor, Mrs. Howard R. Law rence of Ridgewood, and Mrs. David Stuart Hamilton of Pat terson, attired in pink satin trimmed with Oriental lace, and carrying pink chrysanthemums. Following them came the maid of honor, Miss Ada Taylor, of Brooklyn, cousin of the bride. She was gowned' in pale pink satin with chiffon of the same shade, and Oriental lace, and carried pink chrysanthemums. R. Henry McLain of Schenec tady acted as best man. The bride was given away by her father. Her gown was of white satin, trimmed with duch esse lace, and her veil was of tulle and duchesse lace, caught with natural orange blossoms. She carried a shower bouquet of bridal roses and lilies of the valley. A reception followed the cer emony, and supper was served by Maresi of New York. The music, consisting of piano, vio lin and cello, was furnished by Rosenburg of New York. As sisting the bridal party in re ceiving the guests were Mrs. George Silleck, of Greenwich, Conn., the grandmother of the New York, or you can apply to Gap.

Mr. and Mrs. Hemphill left af ter the reception for a wedding journey of several weeks in the South, after which they will be at home m Schenectady where Mr. Hemphill is connected with the General Electric Works. On Friday afternoon Mrs. T. L. Hemphill entertained in a most gracious way in honor of her daughter-in-law Mrs. Jok tan Hemphill, who was married the previous Saturday. In the receiving line with Mrs. Hemp hill and Mrs. Joktan Hemphill were Mrs. Edward Moss, of Con cord, Mrs. Everett, of Laurin burg, Mrs. A. E. Hicks and Miss Katharine Claywell. Those as sisting in the hall were Mes dames W. A. Harbison, B. Bris tol, Derr Boger, Kate Bellmer, James Innes, and Mamie Col lett. In the dining room, where delicious cream, cake and mints were served, were Mrs. W. A. Leslie, Mrs. Matthews, Misses Margaret Bristol, Flora Kibler and Mary Bellmer. The color scheme in the parlor was red, and red roses added much to the effect. Pink was used in the halls and in the dining room, lovely pink roses and carnations being used most effectively, and the color scheme also carried out in the refreshments. Morganton ladies were de lighted with the opportunity of meeting Mrs. .Hemphill and wei comme her to the home town TOO MANY CHILDREN are under-size, wider-weight with pinched faces and poor blood ; they do not complain but appetite lags, they have no ambition and do not progress. Such children need the rich medicinal nourishment in Scott' Emulsion above everything else; its pure cod liver oil con tains nature's own blood-forming, flesh- building fats which quickly show in rosy cheeks, better appetite, firm flesh and sturdy frames. If your children are languid, tired when risine, catch cold easily or find their studies difficult, give them Scott EmaUion; it supplies the very food ele ments that their systems lack.

Again on Saturday afternoon Mrs. Joktan Hemphill was the recipient of a social honor, when Mrs. Benedict Bristol entertain ed in a most charming way at her home on Avery avenue. The guests were met at the door by Misses Mary Bellmer and Rose Davis and shown into the par lor, where receiving with Mrs. Bristol and Mrs. Hemphill, the honor guest, were Mrs. Everett, Mrs. Moss and. Miss Katharine Claywell. Mesdames W. A. Harbison and Harry Riddle showed the way to the dining room, where sandwiches and tea were served by Misses Margaret Bristol, Elizabeth Gillam and Gladys Holloway. The house was decorated with galax leaves and potted plants, and pink was the color used in the dining room. Pass the Plate For Starving Belgians. To the Editor of The News-Herald: . Christmas approaches and countless unhappy Belgians, de spite governmental relief, the Rockefeller Foundation and other valuable agencies, are con fronted with starvation. I therefore beg the favor of your columns to say that the Dollar Christmas Fund for Homeless Belgians, of which I am Treas urer, is working for the special purpose of preventing starva tion amongst hundreds of thou sands of Belgians this winter. For this purpose we are co-operating with the London "Shill ing Fund" a much older fund which has collected nearly $400,000 and which is expressly organized to see that no Bel gian man, woman or child spends Christmas-tide devoid of food and shelter. There will be no duplicating, no overlapping and every penny subscribed will go direct to the victims in whose behalf I ap peal. I believe this great work of mercy commands the sym pathy of us all and more es pecially in this month when Americans doubly blessed with peace and plenty are preparing to celebrate the Day of Thanks giving. Inspired by this thought I suggest various ways in which you can help to avert the agony of suffering which must other wise confront the refugees dur ing the coming winter. You can send a donation to our Fund addressed to myself as Treas urer, Messrs. Henry Clews & Co., Bankers, Broad Street, our Secretary, Percy Bullen, 66 Broadway, New York for col lection card. He will be glad to issue same to any person enclos ing references. Churches, chap els, clubs, societies and Sunday schools can assist by a collec tion. Entertainment commit tees may render great help by sending us the proceeds of ben efit performances. In all these ways friends everywhere are assisting nobly. All the money received will be cabled to Eu rope before Dec. 20th. Many heads of families and boarding houses have promised to "pass the plate" for the homeless Bel gians betore the turkey on Thanksgiving Day. The needs are immeasurable. .Let us re member that no little nation in the world's long history has been more grievously stricken, yet no people can raise their heads more proudly from the dust. The Crown of Thorns is still a Crown! Help us as best you can. Your gift will surely be remembered long after the war has ceased and no man's Thanksgiving or Christmas Day wi'l be the less happy because in some cases the gift may en tail some measure of personal sacrifice. Yours very truly, .HENRY CLEWS, Treasurer, I Dollar Christmas Fund for' Homeless Belgians, 15 Broad Street, New York. The News-Herald will be glad to forward to Mr. Clews any amount left at our office for this fund. Tuberculosis Sunday. Tuberculosis is the most ter rible disease in the world.

Mr. and Mrs. James Lazos have returned home from New York, Mr. Lazos having gone there a week ago to meet his wife, who has been on a visit in Greece for about ten months. Mrs. Lazos says she was on the water 28 days and was stopped six times on the way for inspec tion of the ship. She also says the ship which" she came over on was sliot twice on the way be tween Greece and America. Hickory Democrat. Our people are right hopeful now that the Watauga & Yad kin road will be pushed to com pletion just as soon as possible as iar as sogers two nines down the mountain from Cook's for a Southern outlet, and the Virginia and Carolina within 10 miles for another and western connection, it will certainly be a very great improvement on our present facilities. Watau ga Democrat. We understand that Mr. Os car Sherrill, of Catawba, who was elected County Judge at the recent election, finds that he cannot afford to give up his bus iness as manager of the J.

He will prob ably tender his resignation to the new Republican board of county commissioners as soon as the board is organized on the first Monday in December. It is rumored that the new board of commissioners will elect Mr. C. H. Mebane, of Newton, to the office. Newton Enterprise, How the Next Legislature Will Stand. The Raleigh News and Observ er publishes a list of members of the next Legislature. It says the Senate will contain 43 Dem ocrats and 7 Republicans.

The extreme cold weather and the exhaustion of the troops have virtually brought the battle in Flanders and France to a standstill. A des ultory artillery duel continues at some points along the wide front and there has been an oc casional infantry attack, but for the last three days the fighting has been mild compared with the fierceness of thaft which for more than a month preceded it. The Germans, it is thought, haVe sent their best troops to the eastern front and even in big buns the Allies appear to have, the advantage. There are no signs however, of an offen sive on a large scale on the part oi the Allies, who doubtless are as badly in need of rest as their opponents. In fact, it is stated that officers and men who have borne the brunt of the fighting in the trenches are being given a short leave. This together with the can cellation of the order for the re moval of shipping from Dun kirk, is taken to indicate that the Allies consider their posi tion safe and that they do not contemplate an immediate for ward movement. For this reason, and because the result will, have an import ant bearing on the war, interest still centered on the battles of Poland. As has been the case heretofore when important events were impending,- little news is coming from either Petrograd or Berlin. It is known, however, that the Ger mans are offering stubborn re sistance to the Russian" advance in East Prussia. County Progress Day and Com munity Service Day. There will be a Community Service Day held in each school district in the county by the teachers, committeemen . and patrons of the school on Friday, December 4th. The object and purpose of this meeting and so cial gathering has been explain ed m bulletins and letters sent out to the teachers, and commit teemen. We sincerely trust that the committeemen and patrons of the various schools will heartily co-operate . with the teachers in making this one of the most profitable school days in the his tory of the county. We desire to make special mention of the fact that we hope to have the good mothers of each school district to spend this day in a social way at the public school building and give their support to the teacher and the school. On Saturday, November 28th, the County Board of Education is very anxious to have the fol lowing persons meet in their of fice (Board of Education) at 10:30 o'clock to discuss and ar ranee a program for "County Improvement Day" to be held on Saturday, December 5th, in the town of Morganton: lhe old, and newly elected Board of County Commissioners, the Mavor and Town Council oi Morcranton and Mayor and Town Council of all other in comorated towns of Burke countv.

What the Farmer Did. Exchange. A city man recently visited his 'country cousin." The man from the city, wishing to ex plain the joys of metropolitan life, said: "We have certainly been having fun the last few"! days. Thursday we autoed to the country club, and golfed un til dark, then trolhed back to town and danced until morn ing." The country cousin was not to be stumped in the least, so began telling of some of the pleasures - of the simple life: "We have had pretty good times here, too. One day we buggied out to Uncle Ned's and went out to the back lot, where we base- balled all that afternoon. In the evening we sneaked up into the attic and pokered until morning." A sturdy old farmer who was listening, not to be out done, took up the conversation at this point, and said : "I was having some fun about this time myself. I muled to the corn field and gee-hawed until sun down. Then I suppered until dark, and piped until 9 o'clock, after which I bedsteaded until the clock fived, after which I breakfasted until it was time! to go muling again." IT REALLY DOES RELIEVE RHEUMATISM. Everybody who is afflicted with Rheumatism in any form should bv all means keep a bottle of Sloan's Liniment on hand. The minute you feel pain or soreness in a joint or muscle, bathe it with Sloan's Lini ment. Do not rub it. Sloan's pene trates almost immediately right to the seat of pain, relieving the hot, tender, swoolen feeling and making the part easy and comfortable. Get a bottle of bloan s Liniment for 25c. of any druggist and have, it in the house against colds, sore and swol len joints, rheumatism, neuralgia, money back if not satisfied, but it does give almost instant relief.
