air Navigator Falls to Death.

Clinging to wrecked aeroplane,
which had collapsed in mid air, a
distance of 5000 feet from the earth,
Daniel Maloney, well-known aero
naut, fell to his death in the grounds
of the Santa Clara College, at San
Jose, CAL, on July 18.
Maloney made his ascension in
honor of the annual encampment of
the college cadets. When several
thousand feet above the earth he
began maneuvering his machine.
Suddenly the spectators were horri-
fed to see the aeroplane turn turtle.
The machine soon righted itself, but
turned again. Finally the aeroplane
collapsed entirely and was dashed to
the ground. The college boys oar
ried Maloney to the college hospital.
His head was crushed and blood was
flowing from his ears and mouth.
He died in few moments.

Won from Secretary OIney.

When Richard Olney was Secretary
of State he frequently gave express
sion to the opinion that appointees
to the consular service should speak
the languages the countries TO
which they we're respectively accred.
tied.
1t is said that when a certain
breezy and enterprising Western
politician, who was desirous of serv-
ing the Cleveland administration in
the capacity of counsel at one of the
Chinese ports presented his papers
to Mr.. Olney, the secretary re-
marked:
care you aware, Mr.. Blank, that
never recommend to the President
the appointment of consul unless he
speaks the language of the country
to which he desires to go? Now I
suppose you do not speak Chinese ?"
Whereupon the Westerner grinned
broadly. "If, Mr.. Secretary" said
he, "you will ask me question in
Chinese shall be happy to answer
it,"
He got the appointment.

Mr.. Jones is very much interested

Mr.. Jones is very much interested
in the Greenville situation, because
as long as three years ago he off,
cially and formally reported that
things in that county were not in
proper shape. He then asked for
money with which to prosecute the
investigation, but it was denied him
on the ground that the county could
not afford to have such an investi-
CATION.
Mr.. Jones thinks that when the
committee gets into deep water they
will find things very much worse
than they are now thought to be.
He hopes that the committee will
get at the very bottom of things and
find out what became of the $27, 900
borrowed on notes from Mr.. Daven-
port and others.
The information is that there are
fully $4,000 worth of notes out
standing and that the county has
never gotten the proceeds from these
notes, or if it has there is no record
OF the fact that the money from the
notes went into the county treasury.

How Consumption Begins.

Consumption always begins with a
cough that fingers. A cough that hangs
on and will not yield to the usual treat
ment may not mean consumption, but
has gained footing. Rydale's Cough
Elixir is very successful in checking the
progress of throat and lung diseases.
Even consumption yields to its powerful
influence, If its use ia begun before the
disease Is too deep seated. This modern
scientific remedy kills the germs that
cause consumption. 1t removes the cause
and helps nature rebuild the broken down
tissue. If you have a stubborn cough
try Ryda!e's Cough Elixir, it will not dis
appoint you. Walhalla Drug Company

Jssss and leonard Raw,iuu. Convicted.

Valdosta, Ga, July 27.-The trial
of Jesse and Leonard L. Rawlings,
on the charge of the murder of two
children of w. L. Carter, ended yes
terdsy afternoon with a verdict of
guilty, but a recommendation for
mercy for Leonard. This means that
Jesse will have to hang, and that
Leonard will spend his life in the
penitentiary.
1t was five minutes after S o'clock
when the jury notified Judge Mitchell
that they had reached an agreement.
The judge was at the court house
waiting for the jury's decision, and
the jury was quickly brought in.
The foreman handed the verdict to
Solicitor General Thomas. 1t read
as follows: 1--WE, the jury, find Leo
nard Rawlings and Jesse Rawlings
guilty, and Recommend that Leo
nard be sent to the penitentiary for
life"
The jury was polled, and each
member acknowledged the verdict as
his.
The mother and sisters of the con.
iemned young men were present, and
as the verdict was read out, the lat
ter broke down and sobbed aloud,
though the girls showed little emo
tion. Leonard and Jesse received
the verdict with pale faces and
bowed heads.

Crookedness In GreenvilIe County.

Information az to the extent of
the crookedness of the administra-
tion of Supervisor Speegle, of Green
vile, grows as the investigation pro-
ceeds. 1t developed last Saturday
that the salary of DR.. w. j. Bran
lett, as county physician, was $50 a
year. Yet the books show that dur
ing 1904 he received between 5000
and 800 for Sperforming surgical
operations in the county Jail. When
closely cross. examined last Saturday
DR.. Bramlett could remember but
two surgical operations, and he
claimed that the books he had kept
for five years previous had been lost.
Chairman Patton of the investigat-
ing committee has information that
the Supervisor received $1,25O for
work done for the Paris Mountain
Water Company with the chaingang
and that he put the money in the
bank to his personal credit. The
sum of 800 received from Chick
Springs Hotel Company was dis
posed of in like manner. Speegle
was bonded in security company
for $4,000 for each term and it is
thought that the security company
can be made to respond to the
amount of the bond.

Mix.Up> Between Latimer and tho Preachers

The dspensary issue caused a
lively time in the conference of the
Greenville District Methodist church
at Bolton the other day. A men,
Der of the conference questioned
each minister as to his church's
standing on the dispensary issue,
and the dispensary was raped hard
and unanimously, until Mr.. Henry,
of Pendleton, reported his church
"a divided in sentiment. a member
of the county board of control be-
longs to Mr.. Henry's church. Mr..
Henry evaded long explanations. Mr..
Blackman said that but two men,
bers of his congregation at Pied
mont are in favor of the dispensary
and he would not deny pleasure at
the prospect of their early depar.
ture. Senator Latimer was present,
but was not member of the confer
ence. AT his request he was ac-
corded the privilege of the floor. He
said that he could not sit still and
see himself and others ruled out Of
the Methodist church for a political
issue. He had preached and prac-
ticed temperance all his life, but
thought the present discussion en-
tirely out of place in a church con-
ference. He would wipe all liquor
business out of the State If he had
the power, and he was not taking
the stump for the dispensary, but
thought political wrangle un-
worthy of ministers of the gospel.
He had never voted for the sale of
liquor, but did not propose to see
people ruled out of the church be-
cause of exercising their own judg-
ment in political matters.
Re- G. II. Harmon, of Greer's,
"lambasted" the dispensary and at
tackled Senator Latimer's position.
Senator Latimer rose to defend him
self. Mr.. Harmon said he must have
been hit or he would not 80 readily
protest. Mr.. Harmon preferred a
blind tiger to two eyed tiger in the
shape of a dispensary. Senator
Latimer retorted that if Mr.. Har-
mon preferred lawlessness to obe-
dience to law he could not argue
with him. This closed the incident
for the day, but it was a live subject
for outside discussion.
On Friday morning the question
was revived by minister's report.
Alter acrimonious discussion, Bishop
Duncan stopped open argument by
broad hint: "Who dragged this
dispensary question into this confer
ence, anyway 2" Senator Latimer
afterward stated that he was taking
no part in the matter save as a pri-
vate citizen, either for or against
the dispensary. but was merely pro-
testing against a political question
being hurled into church confe r.
