TILLMAN'S DEFENSE FOR
SHOOTING EDITOR GONZALES
Lattre HoIts His Own, But Crisis Is
Yet to oCme.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Jan. 16.-Editor
n. G. Gonzales, who was shot and Sc
riously wounded by Lieut.. Gov. Till
man, is holding his own. The crisis is
yet to come. The best doctors in this
part of the state are doing all they
can to save his life, but hold out little
hope of his recovery. At the same
time, Mr.. Gonzales is making a plucky
fight for his life, and as he has a
strong constitution, excellent habits
and a resolute will, it is thought there
is q chance for him to pull through.
Mr.. Tillman made this statement:
when the truth of the unfortunate
as the people, will know how thor
oughly 1 was justified in acting as I
did. The statements in the papers are
untrue, and at the proper time this I
will be prepared to show"
It is understood that Mr.. TilIman's
line of defense will be that he thought
Mr.. Gonzales was armed, had a weapon
in his coat pocket and had his hand in
his coat pocket. Mr.. Gonzales friends
state that he was not armed. Mr. Till
man also will claim that when he aim
ed his pistol the second time at Mr..
Gonzales he did so expecting Mr..
Gonzales to defend himself, and that he
lowered the weapon because there was
no response and not because of any,
thing. Mr.. Gonzales said. Mr. Tillman
will contend that he had not met Mr..
Gonzales. This is denied by Mr. Con-
Zales' friends, who say Mr.. Gonzales
and Mr.. Tillman were in the senate
chamber together.

Paine's Celery
OmpOund
GayeNeWLife and Happiness

The year just closed has been a
memorable one for Paine's Celery Com
pound. A multitude of men and wom-
en- weakened, nervous, run down and
suffering the pains and agonies of dis
ease, have had their burdens, removed
and their feet firmly planted on tbs
solid rock of health.
Stirring political events of the past
year, the colossal efforts OF trusts and
monopolies, the recent miners strike
and other notable events will be quite
forgotten in a few weeks or months.
Not so with the strength after weak
hess, the new life after years of suffer-
ing, the robust health after wasting
disease. the permanent cure after the
verdict of 'fncurable" pronounced by
the physician. These glorious remem-
ORANGES and blessings, and the happy
assurance that Paine's Celery Com
pound makes sick people WELL" will
be indelibly craven on the mind as long
as life lasts.
The victories of Paine's Celery COM
pound over disease in the past year
are supported by thousands of testi,
monial letters from the best people Of
the land. Medical journals have noted
the blessed work, and physicians have
been compelled to indorse the life-sav-
ing virtues of earths best medicine.
1t matters not, dear reader, how bad
your case may be, give Paine's Celery
Compound an honest trial, and you will
surely share the blessings 1t has be-
slowed on others.

RED LODGE, Mont, Jan. 16.-In the
arrest last night of Jack Kirby and
William Judenan for completely in the

over the division of the spells and a

have lost part of it on the road Kirby
had about $1,000 to divide. Murray
claims he was innocent of any compile

PUPIL STANDS UP FOR scHLEY.
Disputes His Teacher and the Text
Book Version of SANTIAGO.

The Sampson Schley Santiago con-
troversy broke out yesterday in clash
between one of the teachers Of the
Jackson school, Miss Shively, and Ar
thur F'rederickson, a pupil in her room.
Miss Shively naturally stands for the
text book version of Santiago. Fred
erickson, a bright lad OF her class, re-
fuses to stand for any such thing.
Young FrederickSon made plain his
conviction that it was a shame to make
a fellow say in class that Sampson
beat Cervera, when Sampson was miles
away.
When the teacher insisted that pop
ular prejudice could not be permitted
to make history, and that the historian
had doubtless looked this matter up
carefully, young F'redericksOn be-
thought himself of Maclay and said
things that left no doubt of his pro-
found contempt for modern historians.
Miss Shively was in dilemma. She
proceeded to explain in the kindest
possible manner that it would be i'm
possible at this time to reargue the
merits of the Sampson Schley i'm
broglio, and that her belligerent young
protege would have to take his history
in chunks, just as handed out with
the approval of the government.
WELL" retorted the youngster, in a
determined manner, they never will
make me say that Sampson won that
fight when he didn't"
That ended the contest of wills for
a time, as Miss Shivefy had a whole
class of little folks to teach, and Ar
thur seemed to be in a class by him
self.
Last evening the boy was observed
at the public library, literally buried in
authorities on the Spanish war, max
ing cOpious notes and evidently pre-
pairing a brief in his own defense In
case he should be hauled on the car
pet for defending his naval idol in so
vigorous manner against the d1cta
of teacher and text book.

THEY DYE The ICE

War Is on Between Ice Com

The siege of Lake Calhoun has been
re- established. Armed guards patroled
the shores of the lake all last night

WHAT THREE DICE CAN DO.

ing may be found a number of curious
rules on dice and dominoes that will af-

which most people know nothing.
Three dice are necessary. They must be

throws three skies, or eighteen points.
it is very good sign. 1t means a
speedy rise in life, great profit in BUSH
ness or something else that the person
has ardently wished for.
r Seventeen points mean water The per-
son will either go himself on the water
Or he will have important or profitable
dealings with others by way of water.
A pleasant journey is promised by 16
points, and immediate good luck and hap
piness by 10. Fourteen points warn you
to beware of a secret enemy who is ready
to bring some trouble upon you or to
draw you into plot
Thirteen is always a bad number. 1t
means tears and sobs. Twelve tells of
