A clergyman who was very
particular about his personal ap.
pearance went to preach in a
country parish in Connecticut.
Finding there was no glass in the
vestry, and tearing his hair might
not be quite as smooth as it should
be, he asked the clerk if he could
get him glass. The man was
gone some minutes, but at length,
returned and produced parcel
very mysteriously from under his
arm. To the astonishment of the
clergyman, he found when it was
opened that it contained bottle
of whisky, with water and tum
bier.

May be Asked For.

Washington, April 1S.-Repre-
sentative Hull of Iowa, chairman
of the house committee ON mill
tary affairs. will tomorrow intro
duce an administration bill author
izing the President to issue Il cal
for volunteers to the number of
60, 600 or 20, 900 men. 1t will
be considered at once by the COM
mittee and its passage expedited
us rapidly as possible and will take
effect immediately upon the
Presidents approval.
Its terms will authorize the
President to call on the various
States for quotas in making up
the aggregate. BY reading in
this way instead of specifically
looking to calling out the various
State militia, will avoid several
elm arras sin 9 technicalities, Il
main one being the constitutional
inhibition on sending State militia
out of the country, while volun
teers SO called for can be ordered
anywhere. 1t is likely that if the
situation develops fnto~suut grave
proportions as is now expected,
a second call for 100000
volunteers will he issued by the
President.
The necessity for this immense
number, however, is not clear to
the military authorities mt this
time. The draft of the present
war measure has just been framed
by the war department officials
and the leading members of the
military committee have already
conferred with the war department
authorities on the necessity of
this line, the latter having an
nounced maximum of $4,000
volunteers would be sufficient at
this time.
Secretary Alger, now that we
are on the verge of war, has de-
cided not to make public move

Spain to Be Expelled From Cuba
BY THE ARMED FORCES OF
AMERICA.
The War Question Finally and
Fully Settled-The Suspense
at Last Ended and the
War is Near at
Hand.

Washington, April 10. After
one of the hardest fought battles
between the two hours known in
many years, Congress, at an early
hour, this morning, came to an
agreementup upon the most moment
Gus question it has dealt with in a
third of a century. The Cuban
resolution was passed and will be
sent to the President this morn
ing. Its provisions mean the
expulsion of Spain from The island
of Cuba by the armed forces of
the United States.
There were many roll call in
both houses, and each body held
tenaclously for its own resolution.
The conferes had great difficulty
in agreeing. The first conference
showed determination on the
part OF the house not to yie.d u
single point, and it was only after
long consultations with the house
leaders that they agreed to allow
the little words 'are and, in the
first section of the Senate resolu-
ton, which declares that the people
of Cuba are and of right ought to
be free and independent. The
resolution as finally adopted is
that reported from the Senate
committee on foreign relations
with the addition of the fourth
section, known as the teller amend
ment, disclaiming any intention
on the part of the United States
to acquire Cuba. The resolution
cannot be sent to the President
until after it is signed by the pre-
siding officers this morning.

Special to The State.


kingstree, April 15.-When
the news Of the selection by the
Prohlbitionists Of Hon Joel +
Brunson for gubernatoriul honors
reached kjngstree, there was gen
eral rejoicing among the citizens
of his home town. While it has
been said that the nomination of
MIR Brunson was somewhat of a
surprise to the people of the State
1t was not at all so to lis friends
here who wanted and expected to
see him made the leader of the
Prohibition forces in South Calo.
lima.
Joel Edgar Brunson was born
IN Sumter county fifty one years
ago and as was said in the conven-
tion last night, he has been a Pro.
hibitionist from his birth. He
has served longer in the capacity
of grand chief templar than any
other man in the State. When
he took control of the Good TEN
plars in this State in 1889 the
organization had a membership of
little over 400 and when he de.
cllned to be reelected to the posi-
ton OF chief templar three years
thereafter, the fourth time he had
been offered the place, be by
earnest and organized effort had in
his organization 1912 members,
and had paid off a debt that had
been given him by the organiza
tion and had several hundred dol
lars in the treasury of the Good
Iemplars of the State
For the past twenty five years
Mr. Brunson has been one of the
most prominent advocates of Pro.
hlbltion in The State and a more
worthy champion no cause could |
possibly have. He is man who
has always had the courage to
speak his convictions and has his
whole life fought for prohibition
straight and simple, with no com
promise whatever.
Mr. Brunson is man of won
lerful intellect and broad know
ledge and he has few peers in the
knowledge of parliamentary law.
tie has been called upon to pre-
side at almost every prohibition
convention or other body that he
has been u member of for several
years past, and he is well known
iii over the State as ali earnest
md effective worker. The man
'gement of his private business
affairs has shown him to be a man
If undoubted judgment in business
matters and he has never been
inown to fail in single under
aklng that he has attempted.
For years he has successfully
operated at Sumter one of the
argest and most prosperous sash,
ioor and blind factories in the
State and his lumber factory at
is one of the largest in
he south. BY that knack and
mercy which knows only success,
ir Brunson has accumulated con
iderable money and he has devot-
d considerable means TO tho

al stin ct i've non-compromisinu
State Prohibition ticket which ide,
ne has pushed for the past, ten
or htteen years and 1t is very
fitting that he should be the first
now chosen to hold the standard
at the top of the ticket when such
ticket was selected.
He is a fluent speaker and is
always ready to defend the cause
he has so long espoused as was
evidenced by his eloquent and
admirable impromp.u speech de
llvercd before the convention last
night. Nor is he confined TO the
one subject of prohibition in
speech making, but upon almost
any subject he speaks well and
tiuently. He is man of unusual
mental grasp, of noble qualities
and resolute purpose and when call
ed upon to defend any right prin-
ciple he is always ready to re-
spond.
MIR Brunson has been an active
and influential member of the
Baptist denomination of South
Carolina since his youth and he
is honored and revered wher-
ever his name is known. He is
the man of all men prominently
htted for the position for which
ne has been suggested and he will
make a Winning fight. He will
make an interesting debater on
the stump in the coming campaign
The Prohibitionists of South ca.
roIlna have certainly made no
mistake in the selection of Il stan
dard bearer for their cause in
choosing Joel f Brunson' as their
leader.
Hon Joel f Brunson' the next
governor of South Carolina, ar
rived here, his home, tonight
lie was met by large crowd at
the depot and there was great
cheering and an immense demon
stratlon. Mr. Brunson was met
by committee consisting of
Messrs ChaS j Lesesne, Louis J
Brlstown, w w Grayson and
u l. Nelson, and driven up in
carriage accompanied by a great
crowd, cheering all the way to
Barr hotel, where he was met
6y larger crowd and renewed
cheering. Mr. Brunson was intro
iuced by Mr. Lcscsne and made
short talk to his friends which
was received with applause. At
The conclusion Of the speech Mr.
Brlstow was called. He simply
announced that II Prohibition lea.
que would be formed which was
then done, a strong membership
being enrolled.
a steady stream of teleorams
has been coming in to Mr. Brun-
son during the entire day from all
parts of the State, congratulating
him and the Prohibition party.
This is the first time Williams
burg has ever been so honored
with a candidate for governor and
we are especially proud TO know

one as Joel + Brunson. The
