sponded. The candidates were fur,

mic and ice cream festival at the Bap-
tist church which was well attended
and fine jolly occasion it was; and
later in the evening there was a
game of ball played at the regular
ball ground at Mr.. Littlejohn's be-

better. The streams did not over.

Last Saturday night the 9 o'clock
South bound passenger train killed
Fleming Hamilton at first railroad
crossing below Monarch Mills.
Magistrate w. w. Johnson was i'm
mediately notified and at once pro.
ceeded to hold inquest, The facts
testified to at the inquest were that
Fleming Hamilton left the house of
his father, George Hamilton lust
after eating his supper, had been
gone about one half hour, when cars
came along. The left jaw, neck and
left thigh bone were broken, BODY
was lying along side track, head to.
wards his house on right side of rail-
road track, same side on which his
home is. Engineer said he did not
see the deceased, so there was no
telling whether he was sitting on
cross ties or walking along on track.
AS soon as the train could stop, he
reversed and backed up the track to
where the body lay. 1t is evident
that the train did not run over the
body, but knocked the man down,
either by striking with the pilot or
steps of some of the coaches. The
jury found verdict in accordance
with the above facts. That he came
TO his death by accident.

TAFT's POLICY.
New War Secretary FayOrs the Doc
trine of the Philippines for
the Filipinos.

Washington, Jan. 30.-The Philippines
for the F'ilipinos will be the keynote of
the policy Of Secretary Taft toward the
far eastern archipelago. In almost the
last speech he MADE before leaving the
Philippines for home he reiterated this
keynote, which he first sounded when
he was inaugurated governor of the
Philippine islands. This speech has
been published by the insular govern
ment in an official fornt and has just
reached the war department. In it Gov.
Taft declared that this doctrine does not
exclude the encouragement of American
enterprise or the American investment
of capital in the Philippines, for the rea-
son that nothing, not even education or
a free form of government "can make
for the elevations and civilization of the
Filipino people than the investment Of
an American capital in the material de-
velopment Of these islands"

Lake Michigan Presents a Condttien
Which Has Not Prevailed
Since 1880.

Chicago Jan. 29-Lake Michigan is
frozen over from shore to shore. This
condition is the cumulative result Of
continuous cold weather, the average
temperature during December and jan
uary having been lower than in any win
ter since 1876. 1t is the first time the
lake has been entirely covered with ice
since 1880, year made memorable in the
annals of lake navigation by vast de-
struction Of shipping in bergs and foes.
Even in severe winters strip of blue
water usually remains unfrozen in the
middle of the lake. For weeks this strip
has been growing narrower The cold
weather has finally bridged this fair
way and Lake Michigan from end to end
stretched motionless as prairie under
silence Of ice and snow. One could
start across the lake and arrive dry
shod in Michigan.

WARLlkE INTENTIONS.
Colombia Said to Have Determined
to Send an Expedition
Against Panama.

Panama, Jan. 30.-News has reached
here from Bogota that insomuch as
Gems. Reyes and Cavallero have as
sured Colombia that the United States
will only object to her landing forces
in the canal zone, the Colombian gov
eminent intends to organize and send
an expedition against Panama.
The only explanation of this news
from Bogota is that the government
of Colombia is compelled to take some
steps to prevent Its downfall. This is
said to be imminent, as President
Marroquin has lost all the prestige he
ever had. There is much speculation
in Bogota as to the outcome of this
move should it be put through.
