a pitiful story comes from Bolton in

OF the life Of Mr.. Preston B. Mitchell
about two mics west OF Bolton. For
the past three or four years Mr..

WANTS HIS MONEY BACK.
Passenger Who Was Held Up by
Floods Sends in Bill.

A dispatch from Columbia says:
The railroad commission is sometimes
taken for collection agency by peo-
pie who have bills, or who think they
have, against railroad. Wednesday
the board received one from an insur-
ance agent In Florence, 1t being for
$8 against the Southern Railway.
The man had Il ticket on train No.
36, on the Atlanta and Charlotte
division. When the train got to
Greers 1t was found that the Tiger
river bridge was down and it could
not proceed. Some pressing business
evidently made this particular pas
senger want to get to Spartanburg at
any cost, so he took hack at Greers
and drove to Woodruff, expecting to
take the Charleston and Western
Charleston line.
The bridge Of that company across
the Tiger river was also down, so
another hack was taken and Spartan
burg was reach at last, after. many
trials and much tribulation. The
passenger secured Il statement from
the conductor Of 36 that he had a
ticket to SpartanburE, and this was
attached to the bill, which follows:
Hotel bill at GreerS, SOC; hack ta
Woodruff, Sl.75; Dinner at Wood
ruff, soc; hack from Woodruff to Spar.
tanburg, 1925 Total So.
The passenger says he put on nc
charge for time and trouble. The
commission has not yet taken action
on the bill, hut it will hardly do any
more than transmit it to the;Southern.

Money on Cotton

The Spartanburg Journal says 'it is
an i'll wind that blows nobody good. .
While many Of the cotton mills OF the
South are in Il pinch over the matter
OF securing cotton and of making a
profit on their goods at the present
high price Of the raw material, the
CLIFTON manufacturing Company has
gone ahead and disposed of 6, 900 bales
or cotton on which II is said that the
net profit was 4l50,000 The comp
any had on hand nine thousand bales
OF cotton when the flood struck their
warehouses. Six Thousand bales were
saved, while most, Of the remainder is
scattered down Pacolet river for miles
below the mills. This success In sell
ing cotton ut a high profit is especially
fortunate for the mills at this time
In view Of their recent heavy
losses caused by the flood disaster

The town Of Babblngton, r. l..
seems to be trying to cheat the town
at Fort Mill, S. c., out OF the honor
OF having erected the first monument
in the United States to the faithful
slaves. The morning papers contain
an account OF the nnveling OF such a
monument there and state that it is
the first of its kind ever erected. In
1895 Cadt. Samuel E. White of Fort
Mill erected such a monument in the
park close to the monument OF
the old soldiers and the women OF the
Confedcracy. 1t is tall, plain marble

Many Mitlsllipincn.

A dispatch from Annapolis, Md,
says nearly 700 candidates for admls-
sion to the naval academy are here to
take the examinations. About2OO Of
the youths have been here for some
time preparing at the preparatory
schools Of WerntZ and Wilmer. The
incoming trains Of the past several
days have brought dozens more.
Nearly every State in the Union is
represented. The candidates have
considerable trouble in engaging
quarters, as the hotels and boarding
houses had but few spare rooms, and
a number Of them have been taken In
by private families. THE new fourth
class, which the successful ones will
enter, will number upward Of 300
members, and will be the largest class
ever at the institution.

LEOPARD SEIZED HER
Nine. Pauline Attacked by wild
Beast In Gage.

A di,pacth from Baltimore Wednes-
day says: Nine. Pauline, the famous
trainer OF wild animals, was attacked
Tuesday by an infuriatcd leopard. If
blood poison sets in she may die. The
leopard Is one Of the East Indian ami
mails recently brought to this country.
The two, one male, and the other a
female, reached the exposition grounds
Saturday evening and were placed in
q cage specially prepared for them.
Although the lcopards are about four
years old they have never been trained
and are as savage as they ever were In
the jungle. M ia9.'
Nine. Pauline who has gained q
reputation as trainer of lions
panthers and leopards, entered
their cage Sunday for the first time.
She had made u preliminary inspec-
tion from the outside, and decided
that as the female, the smaller OF the
two, be seemed to quiet and meek, she
would not have her tied down as is the
custom when trainer enters a cage
OF wild animals for the first time. The
male was tied, and when Nine. Pau
line entered he showed q savage spirit,
trying to free himself and to bound
upon her. The female lay quiet in a
corner of the cage.
Nine. Pauline again entered the
cage Monday and received Il slight
claw wound on her hand, But still
the female remained quiet and gave
no evidence Of being displeased by the
visit. When Nine. Pauline entered
cage Tuesday, one Of the guards had
thrown a rope around the neck Of the
larger leopard and held it, but the
smaller one was not bound. The train
er gave more attention to the larger
leopard, whose eyes glarcd like balls
OF lire and whose restlessneSs at her
presence was plainly apparent.
The door Of the cage had scarcely
l,een closed when the smaller leopard,
crOuchcd in an opposite end of the
cage, sprang upon the trainer. Her
hind feet struck Nine. Pauline near
her waist. while the fore claws sank
into her neck, and she seized the wo.
man by the throat with her teeth.
Blood gushed from all the wounds and
1t seemed as though the woman would
be killed.
Nine. Pauline lost neither her cour-
age nor her possession, but at once
began struggling with the animal,
whose furry seemed to increase with
the smell and taste OF human blood.
Pushing the mlzzle Of her revolver to
the eyes Of the Leopard, Nine. Pauline
discharged blank cartridges In quick
succession, which caused the animal
to release her hold. Several attend
ants seized iron bars and beat the ami
NAL to the floor Of the cage, while
Nine. Pauline, with blood flowing
from II wounds, rctreatcd from the
cage.
Either the teeth or claws Of the
animal pierced her lower lip, and be-,
sides she was bitten and claWed IN tie
neck, shoulders and back. Half faint
ing, she was placed in her bed in
tent in the rear OF the animal show
and the surgeon Of the exposition
dressed the wounds, inserting nearly
thirty stitches in all

~ negro lynching in the city of In

affair at Relleville, III. Just what
degree of guilt attaches to ncgro's
act in apparently forcing his remarks

easy to decide perhaps. At any rate,
reasonable people would say that the
girls testimony rs to the character Of

fore resorting to summary measures
against the negro. The Indianapolis

In Speaking Of the murder of The
