Leon F. Czolpocz. the red hal

Leon F. Czolgocz, the red hand
ed assassin of President Mckinley,
was placed on trial in Baff.lc, N, Y,
on September 3rd, charged with the
murder of President William Nc
Kinley. On his arraignment, he
plead "guilty" which was subse-
quently changed to not guilty by
direction the court. The explanation
of this is that under the laws of New
York a person charged with murder
in the first degree cannot plead
guilty and must proceed to trial. The
defense was insanity which it failed
to established. ''The wheels of JUS
tice moved swiftly. The trial of the
assassin consumed eight hours and
25 minutes and covered period of
two days. Practically all of this
time was occupied by the prosecution
presenting a case 30 clear, so conclu.
sive that even had the defense not
abandoned the plea of insanity it is
doubtful if the jury would have re-
turned a verdict different from the
one rendered today" The jury was
out little over half an hour and re-
turned with verdict of guilty of
murder in the first degree. Justice
White announced that he would pro-
nounce sentence on the prisoner on
Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock. He
will die by electricity.

The second primary to nominate a
~ candidate to succeed the late Hon.
J. VIM. Stokes, Congressman from
the Seventh District, was held yester-
day. While the returns received so
far are meaere and unreliable,
enough has been received to place
Hon. A Frank Lever over HOO votes
ahead of Mr.. Brantley.
It is conceded by some Of Brapt-
ley's Wa-mest friends that the out
look for him is gloomy and that he
has but little, # any chances OF pick
ing up enough votes from the boxes
yet to hear from to place him in the
lead and he may, therefore, be con-
sidered practically out OF the race.
We have not the remotest doubt
about MIR. Lever having been noml-
mated; the only question is as to his
msiority-later returns only increase
it to larger proportions, or not mate
rally decrease it. 8rantley's county,
Orangeburg, gave him such a set
back in the first primary by its luke
warm support, that it was impossible
for him to recover from it and he
entered the second primary virtually
defeated.
The figures indicate that Lever
has carried Lexington, Sumter, Cole
ton, while he received very fatter-
ing vote in Richland, the complete
returns giving him 80 to Brantley's
80. Ofangeburg stood to him in
commendable way, while Dorchester
did not forsake him. No returns
have been received from Berkeley.
Lexington feels proud and makes
her most graceful bow and returns
her profoundest gratitude to her sis
ter counties for the support they have
given her favorite son and pledge MIN
in advance to work for the best
interest of the entire District.
The returns for member Of the
House of Representatives to succeed
MIR. Lever, who resigned to go to
Congress, indicate that Mr.. John
Bell Towill has defeated DR.. J. L.
Shuler.
The vote received up to the hour
of going to press stands as follows:

Paradise for sportsmen.

To him who knows not where to 60, there
can be no better place suggested than the
Pocono mountains, lying in the northeast
ern part of Pennsylvania, along the beauti-
full Delaware river. Whether you 60 for
health, or sport, you can hardly experience
the latter without acquiring the former.
The elevation of the mountains varies from
1000 to 1900 feet, and are one dense growth
OF pine and fir trees. Deer, bear and other
large game are plentiful, and though the
region is visited by thousands of sportsmen
every year, there seems to be no noticeable
decrease in the attractions offered. The
Pocono mountain hotels, camps and game
preserves are readily accessible by the
Lackawanna Railroad, the great trunk line
between New York and the Great Lakes.
