GOLD BRICK SWINDLEIsS.
Reputation HonoreC by Governor OF North
Carolina and Rendition Warrant
Issued for Return to
This State

Columbia, S. c., April Iq.-South Caro-
lina's 'gold brick" swindlers seem to
have gotten into a good deal of trouble,
and are wanted i'll several places in South
Carolina, i'll Iowa and North Carolina.
from all appearances there are numbers
OF these gold brick" swi...iers, and they
have way Of compromising their troubles
and getting away. IT may be that they
have gotten up a job III North Carolina to
have themselves arrested and held for a
short while and then have the case
dropped, and though others wanted them,
skip and save themselves further trouble.
Such things have been known and have
been done before, and there seems to be
ear marks of the same thing just now
with the "gold brick" agents in North
Carolina. The chances are that if the
three South Carolinians who were nceced
out of nearly fifteen thousand good dol
lars for bronze brick will Just keep close
after the North Carolina crowd that they
can get compromise out OF them.
FROM GOV. AvcocK.
Governor McSwccncy today received
the following letter from North Carolina
relative to the Wheeler rcqusiton:
April ID, I9oI.-IIlbert II. Aull, Private
Secretary, Columbia, S. C.--Dear Sir:
His Excellency, Governor Aycock, has
received tue rcquisition for John I.ipe
Thompson and Frank Wells, alias Frank
Hawly, charged with 'sobtaining money
under false pretenses. The rendition
warrant has this day been issued for the
return of these parties to your State, and
the same has been mailed to c. w.
Bishop, Newberry, S c. The warrant
shows that these parties are the gold
brick swindlers. A few days ago we had
requisition from the Governor of Iowa
for gold brick swindler now confined in
Jail at Greensboro, and we issued the
rendition warrant and handed the same
to the agent i'll person, who came from
Iowa here with the papers. He went to
Greensboro, and the authorities there de-
clined to surrender the party. I stated to
the agent from Iowa that, while we would
honor the requisition, I could not assure
him that the authorities of Greensboro
would surrender the man he was after.
We honor your requisition and make the
same statement to you That is, if the
authorities there think they have good
case and insist upon holding the prisoners,
provided, of course, they are the same
ones refer to, then we cannot insist.
that they be turned over to the authorities
from your State. Ifthese parties could
be tried and acquitted, then it is we'll
enough to have your man OH ground to
arrest him Immediately and take him to
your State. Very truly yonrs,
?. M. PEENsHII.,
Private Secretary.

to News and Courier.

There is one specimen of humanity
that always reminds me- of the mule,
and that is the constitutional kicker.
There are two points Of resemblance
more noticeable than the other, viz.
They will kick the hardest when thev
are most needed to do something else.
sometimes think that this is because
they are ashamed Of themselves.
The other point of resemblance is
that they arc both infringments on na-
ture. The kicker is cross between
failure and successfully fail to die out
OF the way (who ever saw dead consti-
tutlonal kicker?) but scccccd in mahing
everybody around them miserable.
There Is but one thing that can bo
said in favor Of the kicker, and that he Is
tho moral thermometer in the comlnu.
nifty In which he lives. When hitched
to Load, the kicking mule never kicks
till tho other one tries to start the
wagon and then his kicking qualities
are most In evidence. Then he brings
out all OF his reserved force, and about
the only thing that he moves is mud.
Just so with the constitutional kicker.

to save my life can't find where all

WHICH ~ THE BETTER PART?

at the age Of Is, after moro than
thirty years Of continuous public life.
Senator Hoar is disposed to take q
rather gloomy view Of tho not result of
his efforts.
When he entered Congress no had n
law practice which paid him S2O, 100 q
year, and was growing steadily moro
profitable. 1t would probably have
reached $50,000 year long before now.
He had saved 100000. lie thought
that he could retain his practice and
also attend to his duties in Congress.
Like every other man who has made
that experiment, he found that it could
not succeed. One or the other must be
neglected-the law practice or con
gressional duties.
Senator Hoar has been absolutely
faithful to the latter, and therefore the
former has suffered In his old ape he
finds himself without u law Dracticc
and with meager bank account. The
comfortable sum which he had put
away before he gave himself up to poll
tics has gradually diminished until
very littlo Of it is left.
1t Is natural that Senator Hoar should
contemplate regretfully the handsome
fortune which might now have been
his had he eschewed politics and clung
10 the law. But has he not gained as
we'll as lost?
Has he not won some things which
money cannot buy?
How can he value the ever waver-
Ing confidence which the pc ople of d
great State have reposed in him for
more than thirty years and the honors
hey have heaped upon him?
ls surplus money better than these
things?
1t depends, OF course, upon the man,
upon the point of view
But to q man of Senator Uoar's tastes
and accomplishments wo have no doubt
that such q career he has had Is more
replete with true satisfaction and genu-
Inc joy than the making of money.-
