DARTMOUTH is VICTORIOUS.
Defeats Brattleboro by a Score Of 49,
10 on Local Floor.

The Dartmouth varsity" basket
ball team defeated BrattleborO Y. Nj.
! c. A. Wednesday evening by score
| of 1910 In game characterized by
unusually hard luck for the home
team. Although the colleglans nearly
doubled their opponents score II was
nothing like n runaway match, FOR
Brattleboro played just AS fast ball
as the visitors but was unable TO
make the leather stay in the net. Time
after time did l.. Stafford, Howe ana
March rim the cup" so TO speak, the
ball at times almost seeming to fall
out of the basket after II had been
safely lodged therein. In spite of the
number of shots that the Y. NJ. {, A.
PLAYERS had during the game they
were only able TO cage the ball three
times from the floor. once in the first
half and twice IN the second. The
Dartmouth team on the other hand
showed n remarkable aptitude FOR
scoring and made nearly every chance
count
The first half ended with the score
l1-2 in favor of the visitors ID, stat
ford having been the only local to To-
cate the basket. For Dartmouth
Grebenstein had made three, Ryder
and McGrail one apiece, and Frost
one from n free try. In the second
half Brattlehoro secured eight points
70 its opponents' seven. four of the
former being made by Howe on free
tries. Brattleboro played stronger
game in this half but seemed TO lack
speed. For the collegians Capt RiX
and McGrail played beautiful game
ut guard while Grebenstein was KING
pin In goal throwing. The STAFFORD
brothers played the best game for
Brattleboro, although Ferriter and
March worked very hard, Howe was
not quite up to his usual form.
The local contest was won by the
Union 1910. the result RELOCATING
COMPANY TO last position in the local
league. As far as the score went the
game was much more exciting than
the other contest for the lead was
continually changing and the result
was in doubt until the end. For the
Union Wallen played the best game,
and the passing by him and d. Riley
was largely responsible Tor the
militiamen's defeat Mickey and
stevens did the best work for the
losers. The summarizes

An Elevator Accident.

At St. Louis, MoA'On "Wednesday a
crowd Of employees pressing against
the elevator gate on the sixth
floor OF the Brown Shoe Company
building at Seventh street and Wash
ington avenue, caused the gate to
give way and ten persons were plunged
down the shaft. Six were taken out
dead and the other four, seriously in
jured. Two Of the injured died soon
after reaching the hospital and with
out regaining consciousness. The
employees had assembled at the close
of the work in the corridors on the
different floors waiting for the eleva-
tor to take them down. The elevator
was at the seventh floor receiving pas
sengers when those On the sixth floor,
eager to get near the door and be first
into the cage began to push toward
the gate. Suddenly the gate gave
way, just as 1he elevator started
to descend and ten of the employees
plunged head-first down the shaft.
James Johnson, the elevator operator,
was taken into custody by the police
pending an investigation. Johnson
said the elevator gate did not break,
but that it had been raised by en-
ployes while waiting for the car to de-
scend to the floor and suddenly the en-
ployes in the rear of the crowd began
pushing, precipitating them down the
shaft. Factory Superintendent Fray,

Wants to Know.

At washington on Tuesday of last
week Representative Hardwick, OF
Georgia, introduced resolution ask
ing the secretary Of war to tell the
house of representatives how many
Mauser rifles were captured by the
United States in Cuba during the
Spanish American war, and how and
under what circumstances these rifles
have been disposed Of. In the pre-
amble to his resolution, Mr.. Hardwick
quotes from the presidents message
of January 4, in reference to Costa
Rican newspaper dispatch, from which
the following is taken:
Hundreds Of stacks of arms, con-
tiscated by the Colombian government
at the close Of the late revolution,
have reappeared from some mySterl-
Gus source and thousands Of rifles, that
look suspiciously like the Mausers the
United State captured in Cuba, are
issuing to the gathering forces from
central points of distribution"

The State ONT ofDebt.

The reports of the fiscal officers Of
the State for the past year will he in
the nature of a surprise to the gener-
al public, for instead of a deficit a
small surplus, something in the neigh
borhood of $50, 900, will be shown. It
is explained that this surplus is due
to the money Senator Tillman obtain
ed from the United States on account
of Indian and other claims. That
sum will not be available again this
year in counting the recipients, but it
is expected that increased valuation
of property and increased receipts
from other sources will place the State
on a cash basis. This Is probable,
even if nothing is done in the way OF
tax reform, and there will be numer-
Gus schemes on that line to come be-
fore the legislature.

Officers Like Gamblers.

The Columbia State says: 1--WE are
curious to know the reasons influence
ing 35 members Of the house to vote
against declaring the operation OF
slot machines illegal! They are
not only gambling devices that are
outlawed in many of the big and
bad" cities but they are devices that
first entice boys to gamble. They are
enormously profitable to their owners
or lessees and only for them should
their merits be appreciated. 1t is
easier, however; to outlaw the ma
chimes than to prevent their opera
tion. Officers Of the law appear to
have very kindly feeling for, all
classes of gamblers except the little
darkey who shoots craps in back
alley with a banking capital OF two
cents. These get pulled" and there
is righteous indignation"

bills, and each was passed and sent
to the senate, including Mr.. Wade's
bill to outlaw slot machines. The
four third reading bills we're: Mr..
Beamguards to provide for the
immediate delivery Of freight; Mr..
Coggeshall's to provide for the
immediate shipment and delivery of
freight, and Mr.. Dorroh's to regulate
the size Of cabs used by railroads.
After the conclusion of the work OF
the morning hour" debte was re-
sumed on Mr.. Haskell's bill to require
the recording Of deaths, births and
marriages. After some discussion
the bill was killed.
Mr.. Donnald's bill to reduce the rate
of tag tax on fertilizers was then
taken up. He declared that Clemson's
revenue is $4,000 this year and the
cost of inspection is but $4,000. He
argued that the burden Of this rev.
enue is on Jnel farmer, not on the
manufacturer.
Mr.. D. O. Herbert argued that the
cost Of fertilizer would not be reduced
if the privilege tax should be taken
off.
Mr.. Donnald suggested that if such
is the case why not double the amount
Of the tax.
Mr. Stackhouse declared that the
privilege tax does make a difference
in cost as farmers on the State line
can testify, for they are made to pay
more than the farmers in North Caro-
lima.
MIR. Herbert maintained his posi-
tion and declared hisOpposition to the
bill, as he wants Clemson to have the
means to give scholarships to poor
boys, and he had introduced a bill to
that effect.
Debate was adjourned until next
Wednesday on motion Of Mr.. Kibler,
who suggested that 1t would be wise
to wait until the report Of Clemson
college is received.

ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION.
A Negro Fires Upon Rock Hill Man
from Ambush.

A dispatch from Rock Hill TO The
State says the community was shock
ed over the dastardly attempted
of a negro named Will Walker to
take the life of MIR. w. J. Ingram.
Mr.. Ingram lives in Rock Hill, but
recently purchased place about six
miles away on the Chester and Rock
Hill road. Tuesday morning while
Mr.. Ingram was working in his field
at this place Will Walker came along
the road near by, hallowing and yell
iug in disgraceful manner. Mr.. In
gram went to where he was passing
and asked what he meant by such con-
duct, whereupon the negro became
angry, and reached in the direction Of
his hip pocket as If to draw pistol.
Anticipating his action Mr. Ingram
drew his pistol, and covered the negro,
who thereupon disavowed any inten-
tion of being disrepspectful. This
happened about s or 9 o'clock in the
morning, and was thought TO be the
end Of the matter; but about 2 in the
afternoon, as Mr.. Ingram was driving
towards Rock Hill in a buggy, at a
point near where the first difficulty
occurred, without the slightest warn
ing, some one fired upon him. The
shot came from a thick woods on the
side Of the road, and the aim was so
accurate that part of the load took
effect in the brim Of Mr.. Ingram's
hat. AS soon as the shot was fired
Mr.. Ingram looked back and saw Will
Walker coming out into the road with
a gun in his hands, and apparently
trying to reload. In order to avoid
further danger Mr.. Ingram then
then drove on at a fast speed. He af-
terwards went to the office Of Magis-
trate Beckham, and had warrant is
sued and after a short preliminary ex-
animation this morning Will Walker
was committed for assault with intent

ed under such circumstances. briggs
was not taken to the jail directly. He
does not lose his citizenship by the
conviction, but cannot hold office
again In the Federal government.
In pronouncing sentence Judge
Thomas said: "A man Of honorable
feeling, although he has erred, would
abhor the retention of what came TO
him illegally and believe that such
will be your attitude.
You will find that to make sure of
rectitude in your past life, your
friends will join it with the private
and civic virtues that you may achieve
and maintain in the future, and that
in the end you will be judged by your
whole career and not alone by this
intervening fault and failure"
briggs later was taken to the Ray
mond street jail and placed in cell.
Sheriff Hesterberg, after consultation
with counsel, decided that the terms
of the sentence would be complied
with by OBTAINING the prisoner only
