CHARACTERISTIC REMARKS
Of Rev. W. r. PEBBLES on the War
Claim Matter.

The Dallas Daily Christian Advo-
cate, which reported in full the daily
proceedings of the Methodist General
Conference, gives the following
synopsis of the remarks made
by Rev. w. r. PEBBLES in sup
port of the Jordan resolution on the
war claim matter, which was adopted.
To the friends of Mr.. PEBBLES, the
remarks sound very characteristic of
the man. His words were as follows:
II am getting to feel encouraged that
we are going to come to a conclusion.
| am frank to say that a big point in
this matter to me has been the return
of the money. If we could get every
dollar of it back, without any condi-
lions to it by my vote, would put it
there tonight, and | wish | could do
it, | have always felt that there was
an incongruity somehow between keep
ing the money and condemning the
folks that got it, and the way they got
it. | had little experience once.
You will pardon me for telling it, 1t
is homely thing, but it is right on
the spot In my childhood one Sun
day evening my grandmother told me
to go down to the creek. where the
boys were graphing the fish, and to
tell them not to do it, that it was
wrong to do that on Sunday. I went
to deliver her message. When 1 got
there they were catching them so fast

came up soon after with a string of |
them most as long as my arm. Now,
what was the resultY There were
results laughter. Why. sir, the first
thing she did she made me throw that
tring of fish over the fence to the hogs, |
and then she consulted me with her
single. Now, l never would have
gotten over it if she had eaten those
fish right straight out ana then used
that shingle on me. That is what
would apply to this case. Now, if
grandmother had said to me- II will
whip you anyhow, and / will put these
ish in the ice box, and if at any future
time the hogs will eat them, why, all
right. Now, that is about the size

receipt can acquire wealth. But he

of all that most men of honorable
instincts hold dear.
A young man in Chamberlain 8 en-
ploy, so the story runs, one day sug-
gested that the screws should ha We
ends to them like the points Of GIN
let. The inventor first showed his
plans and drawing to Chamberlain.
Chamberlain kept the drawings for
sometime, and secretly had some
screws made after the young invent
or's model These screws worked
like CHARM and Chamberlain at
once saw that the invention was an
extremely valuable one.
1t is said that he reported to the in
ventol that the idea was not particu-
larly valuable, as it would necessitate
the making of entirely new machinery
throughout all the screwmaking fac
tories in England. He offered the in
ventor, however, $50 $4,000 for his en-
tire rights.
Under the circumstances, and in view
of the discouraglng aspect which
Cham berlain had shrewdly placed on
the gimlet screw idea, the inventor
gladly accepted the terms.
Thereupon, patents were Immediately
taken out for the device, and as soon
as the new screws were put on the
market Nettlefold and Chamberlain
began to receive so many orders for
screws that they could not be filled, |
even though all the machines in the
factory were kept working day and
night. Within six months Chamber
lain's firm practically controlled the
screw making business of England
Those who delight in attacking the
of the Colonial Secretary have
constantly asserted that, even after he
had made vast fortune from the
adoption of the gimlet point idea he
failed to aid the inventor, or even to
Keep him employed at fair wages.
this story be true or not, the
TACT remains that Chamberlain did
make his vast fortune, estimated at
about $40, 600, 600, by introducing the
gimlet- pointed screw. 1t is also a
Iact that he did not invent this idea,
but purchased the patent outright at
very low price London correspondent

An Interesting Puzzle.

"Stop eating meat. is the cry OF

over an article in recent issue OF Q

Of the same newspaper carried each
day a picture Of q tin bucket with the
plea to vote the republican ticket and
obtain flour years more of the full

quotes l8boring man as saying that
to stop eating meat is the only way in
which laboring men can obtain their

puzzles ever offered to the American
working man is how to find the meat

WHILE HE SLEPT.
Sam Warren. a White Man, Arrested
on the Charge
OF Being Implicated in the Robbery
OF Taylor Bros Store at
Hampshire.

The arrest of Isaac and Henry Frier
son, the two negroes charged Will
breaking into Taylor Bros. store neal
Hampshire. has been followed By
other and rather sensational develop
ments.
Saturday Sheriff Hight received a
telephone message that Gardner Frier-
son and Win Lannom, two other
negroes, had been arrested ON the
charge of being implicated in the
robbery. and the Sheriff went down to
get them. He found that the warrants
had been taken out by Jasper Taylor
before Esquire Love. and that they
had been served by a man who affixed
his signature as u. NJ. Warren" and
who had represented himself verbally
as being a United States Secret Ser
vice official, but who, in making the
returns ON the warrant, did not sign
his name in his alleged official capac-
ity. This aroused Sheriff Nights sus-
picions, and, after returning to Co.
lumbia with his prisoners, one of the
negroes confessed that he had taken
part in the robbery, but said that the
white man Warren was the ringleader,
and that he Warren) had bored the
holes through the floor of the store,
by which means an entrance had been |
gained.
Early Sunday morning Sheriff Hight |
telephoned to Hampshire. and was told |
that Warren had left. The Sheriff, /
by Deputy Sheriff Church,
and Constable Goad, started i'm
for the scene, and were
Joined afterwards by Constable Lunn.
Arriving at Hampshire, they found

They started out to trail him, and

STRUCK A TORPEDO.
Evan Alexander Meets with Serious
Accident

Evan Alexander's curiosity was the
cause of his getting into good deal of
trouble and having a narrow escape
from death last week. Alexander
about 10 years old, and is the
son of Ellis Alexander. who lives in
West End. He was walking along the
railroad track near the South Main
street crossing, when he noticed
torpedo fastened to one of the rails
I hese torpedoes contain a high ex-
plosive, and make loud report when
they go off, being used to signal the
engineer to stop his train. Evidently
Alexander did not know the danger
attached to the thing, and, picking up
a ROCK, struck it. Then there was a
loud report like pistol shot, and the
negro fell back, stunned.
He was carried to his home, where
he received medical attention. and it
was found that one eye had been blown
out. while his face and one hand were
terribly lacerated. It is thought that
he will recover unless lockjaw de-
velopes.
