WILCOX ON HIS WAY TO THE
PENITENTIARY.
Surprises JailOr by Pulling Out
a Pistol He Carried all Dur
ing His Trial.

Raleigh, N. c., June ia
special from Elizabeth City says:
Jim Wilcox, twice convicted of
the murder of Nellie Cropsey,
left here today in charge of
Sheriff F. T. Winslow of Perqui-
mans to begin his 30-year sem
tence in the penitentiary at
Raleigh. Previous to the arrival
of the officers at the Jail he
offered to sell the jailor a pistol
and to his amazement took a
3S calibre revolver from his
pocket and fired three shots,
then gave it to the jailer. He
claims that he carried this pis-
tol during both trials. 1t was
fastened to his leg by his garter.
When the officers appeared
he had to be carried from the
Jail by force. He cursed and
swore at them, refused to wear
q neat suit of clothes provided
by his father and insisted on
wearing old trousers and worn
shoes. He said to the sheriff {:
II shall not stay at the peni
tentiary. l shall be back here
soon. A few embers here, some
houses there and a match will
make the blaze. People will
know when | get back"

were not only searched but also
closely watched.
According to MIR. Golden's
statement the defense will en-.
deavor to place Jett near the
posCoffice when the fatal shots
were fired, and will urge that
White alone entered the side
door Of the Court House pri-r
to the shooting. Golden said
they would prove that Jett came
out of the side door after he
went to see Marcum's PROSTATE
form in the doorway, and that
he was there only to learn what
had happened. Golden charg-
ed that Even lied when he
testified that he saw Jett fire
the shot. Curtis Jett was then
called to the stand in his own
behalf. He was cool, but ans
wered questions from his attor-
neys with considerable hesita-
ton.
Judge Redwine intimated that
a special term Of court would
be held to try incendiary cases
if indictments were found
Meantime the overworked troops
were sent out with summons
papers to bring in witnesses for
the grand jury.
The murder case was then
resumed. Jett was asked what
he had said to Mrs. Johnson on
meeting her after Marcum was
killed. He replied 81 said
that she could not lay this on
me, that every time a man was
killed they said l did it" Mrs.
Johnson testified that Jett said :
"Hargis money killed him I
fired the shots" He said at
the time of the shooting his
right hand was so badly swollen
that he could not have pulled a
trigger. He said he had had a
finger amputated two weeks be-
fore When court adjourned
for dinner Jett was still on the
stand.

The contributions to the Cliff
tOn and Pacolet sufferers
amounted to about 10000.
The relief committee have sent
cut the following:
1.-The relief committee and
the people of Spartanburg city
and county feel profoundly
grateful for the heroic services
and generous contributions rem
dered to the food stricken suf-
ferers by the outside world.
Theirs was generosity un
bounded by lines and limited
only by ability to give. Every
telegraph and telephone wire
and every train entering our
city brought unmistakable evil
dence of their sympathy and
loyalty to the distressed. So
abundant and spontaneous have
sheir donations been that ample
means are now provided to re-
heve all want, and the hearts of
our people have gone out in in
expressible gratitude to these
humane benefactOrs. Although
unprecedented loss of life and
property has been sustained,
yet in every eye can be seen the
light of hope, in every counte
nance an undaunted determina-
tion to rebuild the waste
places"

LAW LESSN ESS IN KENTUCKY

Jackson, Ky, June Is in
terest in the trial of Curtis Jett
and Thomas White, for the al
legged murder of J. b. Marcum
was secondary today to the pre-
liminary hearing of the team
sters of the HargisBros arrested
by the soldiers Oh the charge Of
burning yesterday morning of
the hotel of B. l.. Erwin, the
principal witness Of the Com
monwealth against Jett and
White. Although this place has
become accustomed to assassi
nations and incendiary fires
during the feud of the past
three years, it never had such
a night of terror as that Of last
night. Many spent a sleepless
night, not rs members of any
vigilance committee patrolling
the streets, but within their own
doors, as they were expecting
the torch to be applied to their
houses next.
Joe Crawford and Ed Thorp
were brought before Judge Red
wine this morning, and testi
mony was heard. on the writ Of
habeas corpus sued out for their
release by the Hargis people
yesterday. Grady Haddicks and
Jerry Lunsford identified Craw
ford as one Of the men seen
coming from the Even hotel
just before the fire was discov
cred. and y H. Short said he
saw Crawford and Thorp cross
ing the bridge, going in the
direction Of the Ewin hotel, an
hour before the fire. The pris-
oners told conflicting stories of
their whereabouts. JudgeHargis
and the attorneys he employed
to defend Jett and White repre-
sented the prisoners. Judge
Redwine decided to hold them
to the gran! jury, which was
reconvened this morning
After the labeas corpus pro-
ceedings were disposed of the
trials of Jetl md White, for the
assassinatic" of Marcum, were
called. The was much excite

Before the Servian congress
elected Karageorgevitch king
of Servia Monday to succeed
Alexander, they passed reso
luton granting amnesty to all
those who had any part in the
assassination of King Alexan
der and Queen Draga. The
meaning of that is that they
are glad the assassination was
done and that there is to be no
investigation or trial of the
guilty parties. Those people
are about on a parity with that
Kentucky county where things
are in s3 3ch wretched shape
and where lawlessness is stalk
ing abroad.

DR. E. M Poteat, who was
last week elected to the presi
dency Of Furman University, =,
was a class mate Of DR. Bol
bridge while in the seminary
at Louisville, and DR. Boldridge
has very exalted opinion of
DIR. Poteat's ability to fill we'll
the place to which he has been
called. The election of DR.
Poteat, he thinks, makes a new
era in the usefulness of Furman
University and in the cause of
education in this state. He is
said to be man of strong and
attractive personality, modest,
unassuming, sch olarly and cul-
tured and has been successful
in every position he has occu
pied. We hope Lancaster coun-
ty will send a dozen young men
to Furman this fall.

RECORD or THE PAST

 Look well to their record. What they have done many times in years gone by is the best guarantee Of future results. Anyone with a bad back; any reader suffering from urinary troubles, from any kidney ills, will find in the following evidence proof thatrelief and cure is near at hand.
 James L. ScanlOn, street car cOu- ductor in the employ of the Seattle Electric Co.,, of 1910 Nesler way, Seat tie, Wash says: "At intervals for over three years l have been annoyed with trouble from the kidneys, and suffered from severe pain in the small of my back. l railrOaded for years in the east on the Michigan SOunhern R. R., running between Detroit and Toledo, and since coming here six years ago have been in the employ of the Seat tie Electric Co. IT the constant shak- ing and jarring of the cars did not bring on the trouble, it probably ag- gravated it. Be that as it may, during attacks ] noticed ] was always worse if l contracted a cold, which settled in my kidneys and often kept me in con- tinuai misery. Through avery cohvinc- ing ad that l saw in one of our Seat tie papers l was induced Co try Doau's Kidney Pills. When ] commenced the treatment l was in such pain across the small of my back every morning when ! got out of bed that ] could scarcely stand it, and if l stopped or bent uu- thinkingly l can only scribe the twinges as eTcrudiating. Deans Kid ney Pills helped me from the start TO say l indorse the preparation mildly expresses what I think of it"
