Infantry and Lieut.-Gov. of South Carolina"
 In contradiction to the communication from Chareston business men the fol- lowing dispatch appeared in the Sun day papers:
 At meeting of the board of directors of the exposition company, Lieutenant Governor Tillman's letter to President Roosevelt was fully discussed and the following resolution unanimously ad- opted:
 "Resolved, that the president of the exposition company be and hereby is requested to communicate at once with his excellency, Theodore Roosevelt, president of the United States, and extend to him the cordial greetings and good wishes of this board of directors, with assurances that We look forward to his promised visit to the exposition with the greatest pleasure, and that he will receive from our people the warmest welcome.
 "Resolved further that the president be informed that the board of directors denies any responsibility for the recent communication made by Colonel J. H. Illllldl, nluuc to IIeslueIlJ hOoseNelt, and express their utter lack of sym pathy with his action in the matter. !"
 A committee was appointed by the board of directors to convey the infor- nation to President Roosevelt.
 Following is the telegram sent to Lieutenant-G Governor Pittman by Major Jenkin:
 "You are represented in the press as having telegraphed President Roose- welt, at the request of the subscribers to the sword recently offered me through you, requesting him to with draw acceptance to present the same. If this be so, must decline, under these circumstances, to accept the sword. Thanking you for personal kindness in the matter, l am, truly yours,

WILLIAM McKlNLEY'S LIFE EULOGlZED
Congress Holds Memorial Services In Commemoration of Martyred President

At noon Thursday in the Hall of Representatives in the presence of the President, Prince Henry of Prussia, the members of the Cabinet, the Justices of the Supreme Court, the General of the Army and officers of the army and navy who have received the thanks of Congress; the ambassadors and other diplomatic representatives of foreign countries, the Senators and Representatives in Congress, and a large number of distinguished guests, Hon. John Hay, the late President McKinley's premier, pronounced a eu- lcgy upon his dead chief.
 Four times before, national memorial services for Presidents who have died in office have been held in this hall, two of them, like this one, in com memoration of Chief Magistrates who have fallen by the hand of assassins. By strange coincidence, the day was the twentieth anniversary of that on which the peerless Blaine in the same hall, delivered his eulogy upon the martyred Garfield, and, stranger still, the subject of Thursdays memorial service was the chairman of the com- mittee that had charge of the ar engagements on that occasion.

Prince Henry Touring the States

The second chapter in the national capitals welcome to Prince Henry of Prussia began Thursday. Arriving at 9 o'clock in the morning, he and his suite at noon attended the Mckinley memorial services at the Capitol, and at their conclusion made a flying visit to Washingtons tomb at Mt. Vernon. He was the guest of the President at a dinner at the White House in the evening.
 A driving rain did not deter Prince Henry from going to Annapolis Fri day to visit the United States Naval Academy.
 The Prince traversed the States of Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Ten nessee, Saturday with the battlefields around Chattanooga as the final south ern goal He stopped for formal re- captions at Altoona, Pittsburgh, Co., lumbus and Cincinnati, but the wei come extended to him was not limited to those places. Everywhere along the line after daylight came, and until darkness, the people gathered at the stations to cheer him as he speeded along.

Unable to Stand for Months Because of Sprained Ankles
CURED BY ST. JACOBS OIL (From the Cardiff Times.)

Among the thousands of voluntary endorsements of the great value of St. Jacobs Oil for sprains, stiffness and soreness is that of Mrs. G. Thomas, 4 Alexandra Road, Gelli, Ysbrod, near Iontyprid South Wales, who says:
 Tt is with great pleasure that l add my willing testimony to the invaluable excellence of your celebrated St. Ja- cob's Oil, as experienced in my own case. I sprained both my ankles in walking down some steps so severely that I was unable to stand for several months. The pain l suffered was most severe, and nothing that | used helped me until I applied St. Jacobs oil, when they immediately became better and in a short time 1 was able to go about, and soon after l was quite cured. I am now determined to ad- wise all persons suffering from pains to use this wonderful remedy, which did so much for me-"
 Mrs. Thomas does not enlighten us as to what treatment she pursued dur ing the months she was unable to stand, and during which time she was suffering so much, but We venture to suggest that had she called in any well-known medical man he would at once have prescribed St. Jacobs Oil, for it has conquered pain upwards of fifty years, and doctors know there is nothing so good. The proprietors of St. Jacobs Oil have been awarded Twelve gold medals by different inter- national exhibitions as the premier pain-killing remedy of the world. The committees who made the awards were in each instance composed large ly of the most eminent medical men obtainable. Mrs. Thomas did not know the high opinion in which St. Jacobs Oil is held by almost every Fl ogressive medical man.

 MT. s. M. Marshall, bookkeeper of the Atlanta (Ga.) Gas Light Co, was poisoned with Poison Oak. He took Sulphur, Arsenic and various other drugs, and applied externally numerous lotions and salves with no benefit At times the swelling and Inflammation was so severe he was almost blind. For eight years the poison would break out every season. His condition was much improved after taking one bottle of S. s. S., and a few bottles cleared his blood of the poison, and all evidences of the disease disappeared.
 People are often poisoned without knowing when or how. Explain your case fully to our physicians, and they will cheerfully give such information and ad- vice as you require, without charge, and we will send at the same time an interest ing book on Blood and Skin Diseases.

RooveveIt Threatened with Assasination

Senator Platt of New York Saturday received a call in New York City from q number of gentlemen with large business connections in Charleston, and who have means of securing inside information. These gentlemen laid in- formation before Senator Platt to the effect that, secretly and otherwise, there were the bittenest feelings enter tained by South Carolinans against President Roosevelt They went on to describe the bitterness by saying it was first stirred when the President entertained Booker T. Washington, the colored president of Tuskegee College, in the White House; that it was en- banced when the President withdrew the invitation he had issued to Senator Tillman to attend the dinner in the White House in honor of Prince Henry of Prussia, and that the climax came when Lieut.. .-Gov. James H. Tillman of South Carolina telegraphed to the President withdrawing the invitation deliver sword to Maj. Micah Jen- kins, on the occasion of his visit to the Charleston Exposition. It has been learned that Lieut.-Gov. Tillman sent the telegram to the President at the direction of Senator Tillman. Now Maj. Jenkins refuses to accept the sword unless Lieut.-Gov. Tillman with draws that telegram to the President
 Senator Platt's visitors told him that threats had been made to kill the President when he arrived at the Charleston, Expositio and they begged Senator Platt on his return to Wash iugton to lay their information before the President, and beg him not to attend the exposition. Senator Platt told his visitors he was to attend the Mckinley memorial service in the As sembly chamber at Albany Tuesday Washington he would certainly lay their information before the Presi- dent.
 ."I shall certainly do as you wish me to, gentlemen" said Senator Platt to his visitors, land shall give him the information you have just imparted to me, and beg him not to attend the Charleston Exposition. The informa tion you have given me is of very grave nature indeed"
 The telegram referred to above as having been sent to the president is as follows:
 "A short time ago I had the honor to address your excellency a letter, requesting that on the occasion of your visit to Charleston, you present a sword to Mai Micah Jenkins, of the First United States Cavalry, of whose gallant service you spoke so highly, your words being engraved on the scabbard You accepted the invita- tion, for which I thank you. am now requested by contributors to the sword fund to ask that you withdraw said acceptance.

PAT ROARk REPLIES TO WIFE'S
COMPLAINT.
HIM WITH CLUBS
He Alleges Extreme Cruelty and
Threats of Death-Asks
for Decree.
From Fridays Daily Gazette.

&xOu AA4OQy . LAZY 0oAOCtOs ...H.
Although he has lost both legs and
consequently is handicapped as to
locomotion, Pat Roark does not pro-
pose to be left at the post in the &C.
ton for divorce his wife instituted
against him lately in the district
court.
After thinking the matter over and
consulting legal advice he has con
Guided to not only fight the suit, but
in addition to his defense also ask
the court to grant him a decree, ne
having filed an answer and cross
complaint. The filing was made yes
terday afternoon by G. l.. Harris, who
appears as attorney for Roark.
After admitting the allegations in
his wife's complaint SO far as their
marriage and the birth of their chill
dren are concerned, he enters an en-
phatic denial of the charges of cruelty
and abuse, except in that he makes
admission of once having called his
wife a vile name, which he repeats
in his answer. He also admits that
he accused her of unchasity and OF
having violated her marriage vows,
but further denies that because OF
the language he used toward 80 10
caused her great bodily pain and
mental suffering"
AS his counter complaint he al
leges that Mrs. Roark has been cruel
to him on many occasions and that
regardless of her marriage VOWS she
struck him with clubs, sticks '~' her
fist, particularly in June. 1902, when
she is alleged to have knocked HIM
down and struck him with a club on
the face and body. October 27, same
year, he asserts that she chased him
about with a pitchfork and threaten
ed to kill him; that she struck him
with the fork on the face and body,
compelling him in consequence to
nurse two painful wounds.
He says he and his wife have a
community of property, consisting OF
real estate valued at $500, COWS
worth 5000 more and horses of the
value of $50. Continuing, he declares
that both of his legs have been am
putated and that he is permanently
crippled, and asks the court to grant
him a decree and to order a Lewiston
of the property as he may consider
just and equitable.

Candidates for Sheriff in Rosebud
County Tie.

Attorney J. C. Lyndes of Forsyth is
among today's visitors in the city. Al
though he declares his visit is one
more of.pleasure than business, among
those familiar with the occurrences
down in Rosebud county in connec-
tnon with the recent election a strong
suspicion prevails that the gentle
mans presence is not altogether dis
associated with those events, particu-
larly as one of the prominent lawyers
of the city is one of cousel for the
prosecution.
Mr.. Lyndes informs The Gazette
that the county commissioners of
Rosebud have completed the official
count of the vote and it shows that
the republicans elected eve of their
county officials, while the democrats
pulled six through. The vote for
sheriff resulted in a tie, each of the
two candidates. Guy and Northway,
receiving 300. This throws N" elec-
ton of that official to the county com
im~issioners, and as that party is in
control of the board it is a foregone
| conclusion that a democrat will be
appointed.
The republicans elected are, Viii.
liam bray, representative, -. u. NUN,
| clerk of the district court; j. B. Grier.
son, assessor: F. l.. Gibson, county at.
torney; G. H. Klein, coroner; E. w

SchiltZ, commissioner.
These democrats were elected: j.

treasurer; c.. w. Bailey, clerk and
recorder. Gertrude NJ. Higgins, su'
perintendent of schools; Thomas
Alexander and N. J.. Humphrey, com
