THE PRESS ASSOCIATION.
Party Returned From St. Louis Sun.
day Night-A Pleasant
Trip.

The private car Haslemere bearing
the members Of the South Carolina
Press association, who have returned
from the St. Louis exposition, passed
Newberry at 1I:4o Sunday night on its
way to Columbia, where the party
will disband. President and Mrs. Z.
H. Aull left the party at Newberry
The members all reported pleas
ant time and were loud in their
praise of the exposition, saying that
it was the biggest thing in the expo
sition line ever yet attempted. They
appreciated very much the many
courtesies and attentions shown them
by the exposition people and by the
railroads and stated that there had
been not a single incident to mar
the pleasure of the trip.
The party numbered about thirty
five, including several ladies. The
whole trip consumed about ten days.
Col. James Dunbar, of Newberry. was
along in charge of the dining apart
ment and he and his little darghter,
Miss Josephine, who also accom-
panied the party. left the car at New
berry.
The car Haslemere was draped in
deep black as token OF respect to
the memory of the late Col. James A.
Hoyt. who was one OF the charter
members of the association and the
first president in 1875. The associa-
ton remained in Greenville yesterday
to attend his funeral, and one Of the
most beautiful floral tributes laid on
his casket was from his fellow-editors.
Col. Hoyt was faithful and honored
member of the association and: al
ways attended the annual meetings
when it was possible for him to do so.
He long adorned the profession OF
Journalism in South Carolina.

Grim War Humor.

War has it's humorous side" said
General Nelson A. Miles, though
the humor is always grim.
In one of the most perilous In
dian campaigns I overheard group
of privates saying goodnight to one
another on the eve Of an engagement.
These youths were in different regi-
ments. They knew the coming fight
would be a hot one. They knew it
was probable enough that they never
would see one another again.
And so. as they separated, one of
them said:
Well. goodbye boys. As the
coons said when the dogs made after
them. We'll all meet at the hat
ters.

. TWICE A WEEK, $3.50 AYEAR

said Colonel Plunkett, "tand If sober
thew are towards and can be taken
easily An unarmed man in those
DAYS was always safe, even marshal.
I never was the cause Of a woman
becoming a widow or child an Or
phan. and as for justice it was swift
and sure enough in those days. There
was very little work ior the lawyers" ,"
he added with grim smile.
The colonel takes more pride IN his
career among the Usage Indians III
Oklahoma. than in his life in the min
ing camps. He was chief Of police
on the Usage reservation, but his
energies were directed against the
white men in the district. Illicit deal
ers. gamblers and other rlft-raff hung
around the reservation, waiting tor
the Indians to draw their monthly
pension from the government. Their
right to be in Oklahoma was hard to
dispute, but Colonel Plunkett used to
the utmost the law forbidding alco-
holic beverages on the reservation.
Few could be found that were not
liable for arrest upon such charge,
and the colonel exercised a whole
some authority. He won the respect
and confidence OF the Osages, and
whenever the head men of the tribe
go to Washington to appeal against
Visions legislation or maladmlrlstra-
ton OF their affairs. Colonel Plunkett,
if in the country, goes there too. His
direct testimony is of direct value to
them and the congressional commit
tees.
Colonel Plunkett was in Alaska last
year to examine some mining proper
ties held by New York capitalists. He
says that southeastern Alaska, with
it's fine climate and good soil. is at
tracing many householders from tha
Dominion of Canada. He regrets that
more American families do not settle
there. Colonel Plunkett will endeavor
to interest some railroad men to con-
struct a road to the interior.
While in Washington the colonel
was the guest OF former Senator
Thurston, of Nebraska The senator
resented the incredulity of a friend,
who intimated that Colonel Plunkett's
26o pounds made some of the deeds
ior which he is noted impossible.
Senator Thurston was vindicated
when the colonel turned succession
OF handsprings with the agility of
youth.

COLONEL DICK PLUNKETT.
A Brave Man Who Used No Deadly
WeaponS

Colonel Dick" Plunkett. who as
marshall OF Creede, Col.. in the bad
days" OF that turbulent mining camp,
became famous for his contempt for
deadly weapons and his refusal to
carry firearms was in Philadelphia for
few hours yesterday. He had been
in Washington with General Dan
Sickles, of New York. to see Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
Colonel Plunkett is a great leveler
OF distinctions. He has been the
friend and, in a measure, the body
guard OF governors, judges, congress-
men and other notables, but as mar
shall of Crede, and later head of a
police force guarding the Usage In
dian reservation. he has known power
and responsibility. His stay in WASH
ington included call upon Secretary
OF the Interior Hitchcock, for whom
the colonel professed the highest es-
TEEN.
The interior departemnt admits Of
more graft than any other branch Of
the national service" said Colonel
Piunkett. "The lands of the Indians
in the southwest, rich with ore and
oil and capable OF feeding millions of
heads of cattle could be practically
given away by dishonest official.
Mr.. Hitchcock insists that all bids
for leases be brought to Washington
and awarded to the highest bidder"
Plunkett's career is typically west
ern. Arriving in Creede with the
"get-rich quick" fever, he found him
self in the midst of a community
made up of those who came to win
their fortunes by work and many who
were there to rob. Law and order
were administered by the residents
themselves. The power of government
and the decisions of the Territorial
courts were little ';eeded. The posi-
ton of marshal was not much sought
after
| When Plunkett was given the job
he was regarded with humorous in
diligence He had never carried fire.
arms, and was known as peace
maker. His first arrest cost him an
ugly wound in his check, but he cap
tured the outlaw.
His taking of Bob" Ford, the slay-
er of Jesse James, was his most talked
of exploit. Ford had gone on ram
page. and threatened to shoot up"
the town if molested The colonel
awaited his coming and never moved
while the drunken desperate rode at

ness. Here is half dollar. Now,
if you can find any boy whom you

and pay you interest on it, you may

When night came, the banker said,
my SON, how did you invest your
money today?"
"Well, father" replied the little
fellow. "I saw a boy on the street
without any shoes, and he had no
dinner; so I gave him my fifty cents
to buy something to eat with"
You'll never make business

business is business; but 1 will try
YOU once more. Now, here is a dol
lar to invest: see how we'll you can
