Synopsis of Proceeding Fifth Install
ment-By a singular chain of clrcum-
stances Miss Betty Carewe has come
to confuse Tom Vanrevel and Crailey
Gray, believing each to be the other.
Miss Betty is the reigning belle OF
Rouen, Ind, in the day just preceding
the Mexican War. Tom Nanrevel is a
young lawyer of Rouen, and her faith
ers mortal foe. The two men have
quarreled over politics and also on
personal matter and old Carewe has
threatened TO shoot Tom should he
ever find him on CareWe's property.
Tom has fallen desperately in love with
Miss Betty at first sight. Crailey Gray,
lazy, generous, popular, talented, good
for-nOthing, and poet, is Toms law
parner and is engaged to Miss Fan
chon Bareaud, but it is becoming evil
dent that he, as well as Tom, had
fallen under the spell of Miss Betty's
beauty.
At the great fire which burned down
two of old Carewe's big warehouses,
Miss Betty achieves an amazing rescue
of five of the Rouen fire department
including its chief Tom Vanrevel. and
his lieutenant Crailey GTay-from the
roof of one of the blazing buildings.
Miss Betty is captured and hurried
away from the scene by Crailey, who
asks permission to escort her home.
She first hesitatingly declines and
then haltingly explains. Crailey COM
prehends and sees his chance; she has
mistaken him for Vanrevel, the popu-
FAR idol of all Rouen-wth the excep-
ton of her father. Crailey is not only
the town scapegrace, he is engaged
to another woman. He, therefore, as
Betty finally accepts his Offer does not
undeceive her, but deliberately as
sumes the character of Vanrevel.

Now that you have saved my life"
said Crailey. in d low, tremulous tone,
what are you going to do with it?'
Her eyes opened almost as widely
as they had at her first sight of him
in her garden. There was a long
pause before she replied, and when
she did it was to his considerable
surprise.
Il have never seen a play, except
the funny little ones we acted at the
convent" she said, but isn't that the
way they speak on the stage?'
Crailey realized that his judgment
of the silence had been mistaken. and
yet it was with a thrill of delight that
he recognized her clear reading of him.
He had been too florid again.
Let us go" His voice was soft with
restrained forgiveness. You Knocked
me once before"
Knocked you?" she repeated, as they
went on.
Knocked me-" he said, firmly.
Knocked me for seeming theatrical,
and yet you have learned that what 1
said was true; as you will again."
She mused upon this; then, as in
whimsical indulgence to an Emporium
ate child:
We'll, tell me what you mean when
you say 1 saved your life"
you came alone" he said, hastily,
ito stand upon that burning roof
Whence all but him had fed!" Her
laughter rang out interrupting him.
MY room was on the fourth floor at
St. Marys, and / didn't mind climbing
three flights this evening"
Crailey's good nature was always
perfect You mock me and you mock
me-" he cried, and made her laughter
but part of a gay duet. II know L

was earnest and quiet, and there had
been something in her tone, too-as
very often there was-that showed
how young she was. oh" she began
again, turning to him, impulsively, Il

ening in the garden, and have wished

clear how it happened, but even those
few minutes left a number of strong
impressions about you. And the
strongest was that you were one with
whom l could talk of a great many
things, if you would only be real with
me. 1 beIeve-though I'm not sure

you to be real; perhaps because you
are so different at different times that
you aren't sure, yourself, which the
real you is. But the person that you

selves, lighter and easier to put on

PENSION EX-SLAVES.
T.. II, AUi.ir EDiroR.

Senator Hanna's measure to pension
ex-slaves seems to be meeting with
very general approval in the South.
What motives may be actuating
Hanna is hard matter to decide. He
may be bidding for the negro vote in
the next presidential campaign, and
then he may be actuated solely by
desire for the prosperity of his brother
in black. Be that as it may, pension
to ex-slaves would be of great benefit
to the South. Here the negroes are
going to stay, and here they are going
to spend their money so long as they
have any to spend. The national gov
ernment is now spending millions of
dollars in pensions, not one cent of
which is coming southwark. BY all
means let the ex-slaves be pensoned.
1t will be gratifying to us of this sec
tion to see them made happy in thc;.
declining years. They were faithful
before the North took it upon itself to
put them in such position that they
would need pension.
There is only one objection that could
be urged against the measure. 1t
would put into the young negroes the
notion that they are the special wards
of the government, and that no matter
how worthless, no matter how INDECENT
they are, they will be taken care of.
That seems to be too much the prevail
ing idea among them now. But we
suppose they can be dealt with. At all
events, we would like very much to see
the pensions to cx-slaves begin to come
South very soon. The white people of
the South will be benefited. The ex-
slaves will not live long enough to be
brought into any great amount of
trouble by it. The Crum nomination
and the lndianola. Miss. postotfice mat
ter, and che recent White House recep-
ton, and other matters are doing the
rising generation of negroes so much
harm that a little more will not be felt
by them.

LEGISLATIVE PROCEEDINGS,
Child Labor Bill Has Passed Both Houses
Ktbler Insurance Bill-Many Matters
of Importance, Some. Relating
to Newberry.

Senator Marshall's Child Labor Bill
passed it's third reading in the House,
by vote of So to ID, on Saturday
morning, and the three years fight for
4 law prohibiting the labor of children
in the mills was brought to an end.
The Bill will become law as soon as it
has received the signature of the Gov
ernor. The debate in the House con-
tinued through several night sessions,
and the measure was vigorously op-
posed and ably defended A number of
amendments were offered, but none of
them were adopted, the Bill passing the
House in its original form and as it had
passed the Senate.
Only one Newberry Representative
tool, part Iii the debate Mr.. Aull. He
spoke, as reported in the News and
Courier, in favor of the measure, saying
he was the only candidate elected in his
county who favored such legislation.
He was not opposed to the mills and
felt himself their friend. These chill
dren, however, have rights that are
supreme. If the Bill passed. then we
must have compulsory education. The
chief thing he wanted to say was that
the main issue was whether or not it
was injurious to the child and to the
citizenship Of the State to work at such
ages and for such long hours. The
simple question was simple to answer,
whether this work will be injurious or
not. If any proof is needed the mill
presidents give it themselves. The
mills themselves claim that they are
now enforcing twelveyear law by re-
fusing to employ children under twelve.
A mill president told him he had taken
the stockholders money to build schools
and libraries. He did so for the advan-
tage of the mills, because it would help
to make the mill operatives more skill
full. He stated that he had looked fully
into the r:2tter and gave facts and
statistics. He said he could bring the
evidence where the parents want to
send their children to school and the
superintendent deny the children the
right to go to school. He knew men
who failed on promotion in the mills be-
cause of lack of education. AS he un-
derstood it the mill men themselves
favored this Bill. The mill presidents
themselves admit that child labor is an
evil and that they are uying to remedy
the matter.
On the final vote roll call was de-
manded, but the denand was withdrawn.
On the .GOY call Mr.. Aull voted in favor
of the bill and Mr.. Kibler against it.
CThe full text Of the bill is published
! elsewhere in this ISSUE

upon it has been looked for with good
deal of interest. It provides that after
the first of May, 1908, that part of the
profit made OF, liquors sold by the dis
pensary which goes to the State, or to
the common school fund, shall not be
less than twelve per cent. nor more
than twenty per cent. 1t was claimed
by the advocates of the Bill that such
increase in the price of dispensary
liquor would not affect at all the profits
received by towns and counties and
would net the school fund something
like $500, 900 a year-and that the liquor
drinkers could stand the increased
price.
In the discussion of this Bill Mr.. Pol
lock created somewhat Of sensation by
his statement, as reported in the News
and Courier, that he had had this propo-
sition made to him: "Pollock, do you
want to make barrel of money, and
make it quickly and honestly? Well,
there is distillery over here at Cam
den run by man who hasn't any
sense, and is selling his liquor for al
most nothing. You buy that distillery,
and you can get all the money you
want with which to buy it, and you
can sell the product to the State at q
good profit" Mr.. Pollock, when asked
If the man who made him that PROPOSE
tion was connected in any way with
the State Dispensary, replied that he
,, was not making any charges against
anybody and would not answer the
question.

Mr.. Aull'S Road Measure.

In reference to goCl roads legisla-
ton the other day we were mistaken in
saying that no bill of general charac-
ter had been introduced on this subject
Mr.. +. II. Aull, member from New
berry. previous to the assembling Of
the good roads convention, introduced a
bill embodying the idecs adopted by the
convention, and upon which was based
their memorial to the Legislature. The
house killed Mr.. Aull's bill, for what
good reasons we cannot conceive. The
bill left it to the taxpayers of the coun-
ties whether they would tax themselves
TO build good roads or not, and what
possible bjection there can be to that
we cannot see. The bill may come up
again through the memorial of the good
roads convention, and, in anticipation
of that, Mr.. Aull has made some amend
ments to his bill, but the general prn-
ciple Of it stands, to allow each county
to do what the taxpayers may deem ad
misable to do about this matter. This
is absolutely fair and just, and it is tc
be hoped that the house will reconsider
its action. Columbia Record.
