TILLMAN's AFFIDAVIT.

TILLMAN's AFFIDAVIT.
"Before me personally appear.
ed Jas. 81. Tillman, who being
duly sworn, says: "That the
statement herein made so far as
he is informed and believes, it is
proper to make at this time, is as
follows: That for more than a
year and possibly longer N. G.
Gonzales has villified deponent,
pursuing him unrelentingly with
malice and venom which depo-
nent believes was never equaled
in this State, charging him with
being liar, blackguard, rogue,
debauchee and william and such
other epithets. Every act of de
ponent has been distori-l and
discolored by hate and We. N of
Gonzales. That though Innocent
he was called upon to endure
these, inasmuch as deponent was
a public officer. That he bore all
this with patience although his
private life, heretofore considered
sacred was invaded, discussed and
held up to public derision. That
deponent has been informed that
during the campaign there was a
rumor that Gonzales had said if
Tlllman had said the same things
in Columbia that he had said
elsewhere there would be a per-
sonal encounter in which one
would die. Deponent was re-
peated urged and warned to look
out for his safety while in COL
umbia, by various parties. De-
ponent was informed that Con-
zales came to the State house and
inquired for deponent and said
that he had made deponent show
the white feather on several oc-
casions and intended to make
him do 1T again. That deponent
verify believes that N. G. Con
zales at that time was armed.
Deponent was still anxious to
avoid an alteration if it could be
done honorably. Inasmuch as
deponent was about to retire
from the office he was removing
his personal belongings from the
State house to his room in the
hotel and among other things it
became necessary to remove two
pistols, one the property of de
ponent, the other left in the
room by some one not known,
but presumably some friend.
While carrying these weapons to
his room, while upon Main street,
he observed n. G. Gonzales COM
ing directly towards him, glaring
at deponent, and with his hands
In his oVercoat pockets. Sudden
ly he pushed his hand into his
pocket on the right side and
turned towards deponent. Said
Gonzales was all the time glaring
straight at deponent. Believing
his life in danger, deponent hur-
riedly said, 81 got your message, ;"
and fired. Deponent believed
then and believes now that Con.
zales was armed and intended to
kill him. That he was desirious
of avoiding difficulty with Mr..
Gonzales if he could. When
Gonzales. cut across was the time
deponent saw linn thrust his
hand in his pocket. That depo-
nent when he left the State house
didn't know he was going to
meet Gonzales on the street

HEARING FOR BAIL POST.
PONED.

Some Affidavits Tillman's Law.
yers Have Secured.
Special to The State.
Newberry, Feb. 12.-On a
motion made by Solicitor Thur
mond, on the part of the prose-
cution, the hearing on the appli
cation for bail of James II. Till
man, charged with murder, was
postponed until Thursday next,
when it will be held in the
supreme court room in Columbia.
The motion was sustained on the
ground that counsel for defense
Lad not submitted to States
counsel the affidavits presented
today, and States counsel there
fore had had no opportunity for
reply. Following are the affi-
davits in substance, as they were
submitted today.
Mr.. Nelson for the defense also
presented the testimony taken at
the inquest over the body of N.
q. Gonzales.
HoLTZENBAcH's AFFIDAVIT.
Before me personally appeared
Richard Holtzenback, who being
duly sworn, says: "I came to
the city of Columbia on the 18th
day of January, 1903, for the

ton as doorkeeper for the house
of representatives but was un
able to get the appointment and

where his 'boss' was, and Capt.
White replied, Il have no boss
Mr.. Gonzales said he meant
Lieut.. Gov. Tillman. He said, Il
suppose he is neglecting his duty,
as he always is.' At the time
Gov. Sheppard was presiding.
N. G. Gonzales said to Capt.
White he was referring to Lieut..
Gov. Tillman that he made him
show the white feather on sew
eral occasions and would make
him show it again. Shortly af-
terwards Mr.. Gonzales went of.

Taibird and Brown walking up
Main street. Senator Brown was
on the inside. He dropped back
to speak to a lady and left Lieut..
Gov. Tillman with Senator Tai

the outside. Deponent noticed
Mr.. Gonzales coming down the
street walking in the direction of
the State house. He had on an
overcoat and each hand in the
pocket and his thumb resting on
the top of pocket. AS he got
near Gov. Tillman, he cut across

Eye-Strain and Nervousness.

In some cities the nervous child Is
moving parents and physicians to ap-
peal for fewer hours IN the schools and
less pressure. We do not much believe
in the intellect, the morals or the peGa-
gogics of the colt breakers or the boy
breakers. There are better ways to
break a horse or Il child than to break
its will and the teacher that entertalnS
such diabolic theories should De

the whole discussion is the utter Omis-
sion from hundred papers and cdi-
torials and discussions Of the most im-
portant element of the entire matter.
There are, it is true, many other rae

which is as prolific Il source Of evil as

IRISH LAND BILL PASSED.

John Redmond Declares 1t Will Bring
Peace and Prosperity.
London.-The Irish land bill passed
it's third reading in the House Of Com
mons, by a vote Of 317 to 20.
In the absence of Irish Secretary
Wyndham. the third reading Of the
bill was moved by Premier Balfour.
John Redmond. the Irish leader. said
that while the bill was defective in
some features it would, if worked in
reasonable and moderate spirit, bring
to Ireland the blessings Of peace and
prosperity.
Sir Henry Campbell ,Bannerman, the
Liberal leader. complimented Mr.
Wyndham on his conduct Of the bill
Mr.. Balfour congratulated Mr.. Wynd-
ham and the country on the bill, which.
he said. was tentative step toward
the removal Of the present Irish land
system, which was tht worst in the
world.
Mr.. Balfour said the King had COM
manded him to say that. being aware
of the purport Of the bill. he placed his
interests at the disposal of Parliament.

prejudices found 10 favor in his eyes.
In his mastery encyclicals he spoke au-
thoritatively and most wisely. not al
ways on purely ecclesiastical subjects,
but very often also on subjects which
are of worldwide secular interest.
Thus he was more than an eccelsiastic;
he was also great statesman. Of his
personal chara cter. all who were ever
privileged to know him, have spoken in
the highest terms. That he was ve-y
charitable and kindly is known to all.
In word, he bore himself nobly in his
high office, and now that he has gone
to his reward all who have watched his
sterling and loyal work will admit that
he was true and emnently sagacious
shepherd Of the people.
Many anecdotes have been related as
to the personal chara cteriStics of Pope
Leo XIII. He was accessible and affa-
BILE to all who sought an audience and
consequently thousands Of those who
have visited Rome retain vivid i'm
pressions Of the Pontitf. Simplicity
and frugality of living enabled him to
husband his strength and to accomplish
an amount OF work devolving upon him
as head Of the church" which to
many men of greater physical strength
would have seemed appalling. But
Pope Leo NH. was well entitled to be
considered in many respects the grand
est old man Of the age.

and thoroughly Italian. 1t differed
from the good natured roundness of
Pio Nono's by its great length and the
sharper outlines which it reached to-
ward the chin. The forehead was
massive. high and rather straight, and
was especially striking from its great
width. indicative OF intellectual
strength. The thin hair that streaked
it was Of silver hue. The eyebrows
were dark and heavy and Of perfect
arch, and tic eyes were singularly
mild and soft and. at the same time,
penetrating ard searching. The large,
well-defined nose was characteristic of
tirmneSs and will power. decidedly
Roman in shape, but with wide nostrils
that were credited by physiognomiSts
with bold leonine qualities.
His handwriting is peculiar enough
to excite interest, even if it were not
that Of the Pope. 1t is exceedingly
small. and o. very careful, laborious
construction. as if each OF the intiniteS-
imal characters was formed with the
most painStahing care. In its airy deli
cacy it resembles lPdy'S hand, but
the mosaic elaboration of every stroke
has something highly scholastic about
it. Under his diminutive signature
the Pope left half IN inch Of vacant
space and then completed it by five
dashes, growing successfully smaller
and smaller.
Pope Leo XIII. had 4 marvellous
memory. which he retained up to the
last. Speaking of him in December,
1896, Archbishop Stonor. who frequent
ly attended on him. said:
"TIe recollects many of the people he
receives after intervals OF as long as
sixty years. Many years ago, when
Lord Palmerston was Premier, His
Holiness visited England. and was pre-
sented to the Queen and Prince Con-
sort. OF that visit he still remembers
the small details, and only short time
ago he mentioned Sir James Graham,
who was one of the Ministers of the
period, and spoke of the part he took in
q controversy respecting posts and teie-
graphs" Again, when Miss O'Connell

a poet as we'll rs statesman and

evidenced by the fact that fine poem

achievement it was for man of his

or him indeed it may be said that
whatever he did was well done. There
have been many pontiffs, but not many
who have done greater deeds or ell
deared themselves more to all Chris
tendon than Leo NIII. A conservative
in many respects, he was at the same
time a true child of the century, and
hence he could not be blind to the
march of events. He saw the meaning
of modern progress and he recognized
the potency of modern ideas. A man
Of harrow mind might have come forth

such Il man was Leo. Intolerance

A photograph of Cardinal Pecci,
taken in 1870, when he attended the
Ecumenical Council, gives one an adj

Of the Pope. WITH it appear also the
likenesses of all the other Cardinals.
and it IS no eXaSgeration to say that
Pecci's head is by far the most im-
pressive in this gallery. There are
sterner heads, heads more severely in
