band in Columbia S. C.

COLUMBIA, S. c., March S.-Alrs. Belle

widow, and also Eldredge Dawkins, who
had been hanging around the woman
The pair were subsequently released<on
some technicality, and it was thought
that the affair had ended, but Coroner
Green and Police Officer SLACK persisted
in their investigation. The contents of
Graddick's stomach was analysed
Last night the woman was remauded
to Jail, as the chemist, DR.. O.. "
Owings, testified that Graddick's stomach,
contained enough arsenic to cause death.
Negro cooks and servants testified that
while Graddick was sick, supposedly with,
grippe, his wife administered some drug
In his coffee, avowedly to break him OF

that she would give $50 for something
to put her husband to sleep and keep
him so. }3s5S5

f,earthstone, and contained ans alkaline
solution of arsenic. =

WHO WILL GET THE CASE.
II is Now Up to the Gov eruor to Pass
Upon Very Important Case.

The case of the inbecile girl who
now lies in the county jail awaiting
to be sent to one of the humane in
stitutions of the State. is very i'm
portant one, IS fixing precedent for
future action in such cases says the
Huntington Herald.
The girl, it appears, whose name
is Effie G. Racey and who is proha-
bly, LIS years old, was brought to the
Home for Incurables some time ago.
She was admitted TO the Home. but
it was soon discovered that she was
insane and at times became so vio-
lent as to endanger the other inmates
OF the institution. The management
Of the institution had her examined
and she was pronounced idiotic and
was sent to the asylum at Spencer.
There she was refused admittance
upon the allegation that she was not
insane, as she had never, according
to the history OF the case, been sane
but had been born idiotic. So she
was returned here for re-admission
to the Home for Ineurables, and
again refused admission. She was
then turned over to the county Jail
er and it is now up to Governor At
kinson to decide what disposition
shall be made of the case
The question involves several in
tricate points and being the first
one to arise under such q head the
final disposition of it will be watched
with interest by the authorities Of
the various humane institutions of
the state.

self.

A PECULIAR CASE.
Division of Estate Depends on Which
of the Bice Brothers Died First.
Uniontown News Standai

A very unusual and peculiar case
may develop from the recent death
of Jefferson and Jacob Biee Letters
of administration In each estate were
issued Tuesday to Alexander Mack
of Masontown, and the circum
stances are about as follows: Jetfer
son and Jacob Biee both died July
5, 1900, intestate, the former at his
home in Masontown and the latter
in Nicholson township, both deaths
occurred about Is minutes after s
o'clock p. m. 1t has not been def
nitely determined which died first,
and from this circumstance may
arise some litigation in regard to
the settlement OF the estates. They,
with their brother, George w. Nj.
Biee were joint owners of farm OF
164 acres in Nicholson township
together with the stock and other
personally Jefferson died leaving
a widow, but no children, and one
brother, George w. M. Bice. Jacob
was never married and leaves a
brother, as above mentioned, his
only heir IfJeferson died first his
widow would be entitled to one sixth
or one-third Of one-half of the per-
sonal property on the farm abso-
lute]y and to life estate in one
sixth of the land; while il Jaco ,
died first she would be entitled to
one fourth of the personal property

SEPTEMBER FIRST.
Improvements In Electric Light Plant
viii be Completed at That Time.

The new poles for the Electric Light
and Power Co. have been put in and
painted but the further improvements
in the plant and equipment will have
to wait for while. Mr.. Sturgiss is
too busy Just now to attend to it and
it will go over until about September
first. A very radical improvement
will be made ia the plant itself.
A two hundred and fifty horse pow
er engine will be installed TO take the
place of the one hundred horse power
machine that they have at present.
The capacity OF the plant will be pro-
portionately increased and there will
be plenty of power to run all the lights
that may be needed in town. For
some time the demand has been much
greater than the ability of the plant
TO supply and the service in conse-
quence has not been of the best. With
the improvements that are contem-
plated it will be equal TO the best in
the country.

whose work is well known to Morgan
town people. They have long admir-
ed him AMI viii be glad OF the oppor-
tunIty Of getting another example of
his art The book il having great
run at the Acme Book Store. That
its popularity is we'll deserved the fol-
lowing from the Atlantic Monthly
will show conclusively:
Like the best OF Mr.. Aliens wri-
tings, this is a story Of Kentucky life,
but in no degree u repetition of any
thing In his previous books. Indeed.
the scenes which form the background
of the story's movement have never
before pictured in American fiction,
The period is that at the close OF the
Civil War. about 1865. All OF the
characters, but ia an especial degree
the young man and woman In
whom the interest OF the stony centres
have felt the upheaval OF standards,
the social and intellectual changes,
brought about by the war, and are adj
iusting themselves to the new condi-
tions and relations forced on them by
the war. Each is the child of the
revolution; she has been forced by cir
camstances from high social position
to obscure hard work, which she
would not have been free to follow be-
fore the war; his form OF the new lib
erty is intellectual, where hers is So
cial, but the two streams OF revolution
run together and act on each other.
ssIn Mr.. Aliens work we have the
unusual blending of realism and pc.
etry; it has an almost unique place in
American fiction.
The usual price is $3.50 but is sold
for 81 % by the Acme.
