of baptism in village in the back belt

the minister of the childs father. "John

DARING ROBBERY IN SpARTANBURG.
Mt. ". l. Gowan Sandbassed and Relieved o
Si5-Unconscious on Sidewalk for
Some Time.

SPARTANBURG, March 15.-The most
daring robbery recorded in the city's his
tory was the sandbagging of Mr.. W. l..
Gowan and the rifing of his pockets OF
SIS by an unknown thief last night about
$50 o'clock on North Liberty street,
about a block from East Main. Mr.. Gowan
bad started home from his green grocery,
81 East Main street, for the night, carry
ing in his large leather purse three i've
dollar bills, along with some express re-
ceipts and other papers. He passed Pc
destrian, tall man envelopea in a long
black overcoat, who appeared in the act
of tying his shoestring. Just as he walked
by Mr.. Gowan received a blow in the
back of the head, which felled him and
rendered him unconscious, during which
time the highwayman "went through" his
pockets. A little negro boy reported to
the police that man was lying dead on
North Liberty street, and when the officers
arrived Mr.. Gowan had regained con-
sciousness, and was lying on the side
walk, with his head resting against a
telephone post. There was large knot
raised on his head, about the base Of the
brain; but he was not seriously injured.
Further down the street the purse, the
papers and receipts were found, scattered
about. The police have been working on
the case; but so far, there have been no

FIsHERMEN's RIGHTS.
Shall They Follow Streams on Private
Property?

Denver.-The Supreme Court has
been hearing arguments in the Gunni-
son county fishing case, rising from
the intervention of the attorney gen
erals Office on behalf of the state. Al
ter the recent decision of the Supreme
Court. holding that an individual had
no right to fish in streams crossing pri-
vate property, the state complained
that it had not been given opportunity
to appear and asked leave to intervene,
which was granted.
c. d. Hayt, Platt Rogers and Ralph
Talbot are acting as friends of the
court in the matter, having volunteered
their services upon invitation, and will
submit comprehensive brief in the
case Judge d. C. Beaman, Charles S.
Hughes and Shackelford Sprigg of
Gunnison argued in support of the pre-
vious decision. l. B. Melville. assist
ant attorney general, Thomas Ward
and Ethelbert Ward argued for the
state.
Mr.. Melville, speaking for the state,
held that the constitution declares the
waters of natural stream to belong
to the public and that the Court of APP
peals in the Hornbeke case decided
that the fish belonged to the state. For
the reason that the waters are public
and the fish belong to the state, he
contended that fishermen should have
q right to fish in the streams.
A second point was that under the
common law all streams capable of be-
ing used to float ties, etc, are termed
navigable, and other courts have held
that all persons have a right to fish in
uavigable streams.
The state in its argument does not
ask that fishermen be allowed to go on
the banks Of streams. and it is not con-
tended that the Legislature ever in
tended they should, but only that fish
ermen have a right to walk in the bed
Of the stream. The matter was taken
under adyisement.

chef, will soon learn it in lesson

So saying, he rushed to the window
and tried to follow the form of Alexis
disappearing into the night.
He could see the figure against the
snow in the open, but it was lost when
the darkness of the forest became the
background.
Brave fellow" exclaimed the couri-
er, as with straining eyes he strove to
pierce the darkness. brave fellow!"
By heaven, If do not make all Russia
ring with your praises for this act,
my name is not Ignatieff. There he
goes!" he continued. as Alexis strug-
gled on through the drifts. and with
his rifle brought down the first of the
wolves as they sprang upon him. He
has gained higher ground. My God,
he is LOST" he went on as Alexis
stumbled for moment-"No! he is
on his feet again. Brave man! Well
done!"
Alexis had barely time to use the
rifle as a club and to knock the brains
out of one of the furious brutes as it
sprang upon him, till he heard cry
OF anguish.

CORPORATION FUNDS.
Proposed Law Against Their Use for
Political PURPOSES

hington.-Probably the most
tangible result of the insurance invest
igation in New York will be a strong
effort made to pass some sort of cor
rupt practices act, so as TO require
publicity for all expenditures and con
tributions for federal election~
throughout the country.
Within a few days Chairman .Cortel-
you of the Republican national com
mittee will have ready n complete list
of all the contributions made through
him in the last national campaign. AS
result of the revelations in New
York the postmaster general, after
consultation with the President, is pre-
pairing to show up his books, and he
probably will go on record as favorinal
some sort of law or a political custom
which will prevent the reception OF
political contributions from corpora
tions.
The President will take mp the same
matter in his message, and probably
will urge such action by congress as
will put stop to the unfairness of So
liciting or accepting contributions
from corporations without a direct
vote of all stockholders.

HOSTESS SHOWED MUCH TACT.
Hint Enabled Visitor to Appear in Ap-
propriate Dress.

"One of the most tactful invitations
l have received this season. said a
girl who is on a round of country
house visits, was accompanied by a
short resume of the functions that
were to take place during my stay,
thus enabling me to take clothes suit
a"le to the occasion. After setting
the date of my coming and going and
giving me choice of several trains at
which | would be met. my hostess
said: There will be garden party,
picnic lunch in the woods during the
week you are here ! therefore pro-
vided myself with n fluffy. frlly or
candle, a simple decollete gown, and
something for the picnic which would
not show grass stains nor be the
worse for briers and brambes.
Had | gone without an inkling OF
what was in store for me might
have prepared to vegetate for week,
carrying with me Il trunkful of cali
Goes and sunbonnets, or something
equally inadequate; or have gone to
the other extreme-arriving on the
scene with all the Paris gowns / pos
sess, appearing at the simple little en-
tertainments provided by my hostess
overdressed than which nothing is
more uncomfortable.
Il wonder why more people do not
follow this plan of delicately suggest
ing what wardrobe a guest shall bring
by mentioning the events which will
take place during her stay. This
would be especially convenient when
one visits a place for the first time
and is unfamiliar with it's social life."

Terrible Railway Collision.

Lincoln, Mass-The most disastrous
railroad wreck in this state for many
years occurred at 3:15 tonight at Ba-
ker's bridge station, mile and half
west of Lincoln, on the main line OF
the Fitchburg division of the Boston &
Maine railroad. The regular Sunday
night express, which left Boston at
7:45 for Montreal via the Rutland sys-
TEN, crashed into the rear of local
train which started from Boston. at
7:15 for points on the main line ~
the Marlboro branch. At least fifteen
persons were killed outright, burned to
death or suffocated, and thirty or more
were seriously injured. Many passen-
gers received minor cuts, bruises and
burns.
The wreck was primarily due to
thick weather, which apparently OBJ
scured signals set by the forward
train, which at the time of the disaster
was standing in front Of Bakers Bridge
station.
