The japanese made their hats of pa

back to the petasurs worn by the an
Gent Romans when on journey, and
hats with brims were also used by the
earlier Greeks.
1t was not until after the Roman
conquest that the use of hats began In
England. A ''hatte of bever," about

The Thermometer In sickness.

Currie of Edinburgh employed Their
mometer in the treatment of typhoid
fever patients with the cold douche as
early as 1897. He was ridiculed by his
German contemporaries as an instance
of medical decay in English medicine.
The first clinical application of the
thermometer was made by Santorius of
Padua. He invented a thermometer
open at the end. After being held by
the patient it was plunged into cold
water Boerhave taught the impor-
lance of the thermometer. De Haen
Q704-1776I must be given the honor
of introducing the thermometer into
current use at the bedside. 1t was
not until 1850 to 1870 that it came into
general use.

FAIRMoNT, &c I9.-J. M. Burr,
the fireman on the Pittsburg flyer,
which was wrecked Nov. Is at Chief
ton, and the engine turubled into
the river, died from his injuries at
the Miners Hospital yesterday
morning. When the engine rolleu
over the embankment into the West
Fork river Mr. Burr was pinioned
under the debris. He was taken
out after much difficulty. His
left limb was severed above the knee
and he was otherwise badly hurt.
The loss OF blood from the sever
ing of the limb greatly weakened his
condition and was principally the
cause of his death.
Mr.. Burr was about 81 wears of
age, and his home is near Weston.
He was born in Taylor county. He
was well liked lnrailroad circles and
and his death will be learned with
much regret
The remains were taken to the
Jones undertaking rooms and pre-
pared for burial, and were taken to-
Weston for burial today.
A. +. Carrico, of this city, the q
gineer who was injured in the sam
disaster, has about recovered froni&.

DID HE GET TILLMAN'S MAIL
SENSATION DEVELOPS IN SOUTH
CAROLINA CAMPAIGN.

Congressman Talbot Charged by
Postmaster at GreenviIIe with Oh
tanning Mail Containing Political
Secrets of His Opponent for Gov
ernOr. j. III. TilIman-Ta1bot Denies
the Charge and TiIIman Says He
strong Evidence.
Columbia, s. c.. July H.-There was
a sensation to-day when it was pub
lished that the private mail for J. H.
Tillman. containing whatever cam
palgn secrets he might have, had fall
en- into other hands last night at
Pickens, that the postmaster and his
assistant had identified Congressman
]. w. Talbot as the person who got
Tillman's mail and had notified the
department at Washington.
Both these men are running for
Governor and Tillman has been free
in attacks on Talbot, there being con-
siderable bitterness between them. In
his speech from the stump in Green
Vile this afternoon Talbot declared the
statement that he had taken Tillman's
mail was "a fake" 1t was printed in
a Greenville paper with declarations of
the Pickens postoffice officials. Talbot
said he did not think the public would
believe him guilty of such conduct and
he asked Tillman if he believed it.
Tillman replied that he would not be-
lieve it unless faced with strong evil
dence. 1t is generally believed that
there is something behind it.

kAOLIN IN WORTH.
Valuable Deposit Believed TO Have
Been Discovered.

Been Discovered.
Triton. Ga, July 17,--Mr. w. j. Hen
derson of Triton, who is considered an
expert mineralogist, was on a pros
pecting tour a day or two ago, and
visited the place of Col. John Murrow
in Worth county. In an old pine field
on this place, he noticed at the mouth
of long gulIey some briars. stained
with something of the color of kaolin.
He returned home and secured the
proper tools and visited the gulley
again, and drilled to the depth of ten
and a half feet, and as deep as he
went the substance was as good as
when he first made the discovery. Not
a grain of sand about the ore. 1t
has a rich color, and will pull as free
as chewing gum or candy.
Mr.. Henderson made a valuable dis
covery of kaolin in Florida, and says
that he knows that this is the same
material as that. 1t has the appear
ance of being more like Fuller's earth
than kaolin, but the goods that are
manufactured from the product are
the same. Kaolin makes the finest of
crockery, and the discovery made by
Mr.. Henderson is a large one, and will
prove a valuable mine, If there Is no
flaw to be found. He says the usual
depth of such mines is not more than
six feet, and that this one being ten
and a half feet, as far as he drilled
would likely stand to be probed sew
eral feet farther down

Midwife. Ga, July 17.-Johnson. the
Emanuel county desperate, who killed
Wilson last winter near Herndon, and
has since been eluding the officers and
committing robberies and burglaries of
every description in the community of
Malvern and Garfield, killed Mr.. Joe
Flanders. brother of the sheriff of
Emanuel county, last night at II
O'Clock, about four miles south of here.
Johnson and his wife were discover
ed yesterday in a creek swamp on Mr..
Gays plantation. Fred Flanders, the
sheriff, was promptly notified. He left
Swainsboro at o'clock with his
brother and two deputies to arrest
johnson. He was Joined at Mr.. Gays
by party of fifteen men, who thought
they had Johnson surrounded in the
swamp. but upon investigation found
he had escaped. His wife drove out of
the swamp in a buggy, but was not
recognized by the men at the
time. When Sheriff Flanders arrived
and found that johnson had escaped
he dispatched his deputies and others
who were helping to arrest Johnson IN
different directions to search for him.
johnson met his wife some time during
the evening, but kept in hiding until
after dark They were overtaken
near Lemly Sherrod's in the road lead
ing to Midwife at II o'clock last night
by Joe Flanders and Deputy Sheriff
Curl. The officers told Johnson to
stop and throw up, his hands. 1t seems
that Johnson was expecting to be pur-
sued and was sitting with his face to
the back of the buggy. When he was
told to surrender ne deliberately shot
Joe Flanders in the left breast with a
Winchester rifle. He then dropped
his rifle and fed. Flanders and Curl
both shot at him. but he
made good his escape and
went in the direction Of the Ogee-
chez Swamp. Johnsons wife shot
at Flanders and Curl, while they were
shooting at Johnson. Flanders fell out
of his buggy and expired after firing
three shots at Johnson. Mrs. Johnson
was shot in the head The ball en-
tered her ear and lodged in the back
of her head. She has been taken to
Jail. Flanders corpse was carried TO
Swainsboro. There is a large party
securing the country for Johnson.
