FURTHER INVESTIGATION
Effort Made to Get Names OF Con-

Testimony Supervisor Miles.
Special to The Herald and News.

Special to The Herald and News.
Spartanburg, S. c., Aug. 1o.-Ihe
investigation today was largely co111"-
lative evidence, it conhded the pre-
vious testimony as to the barber and
sale of positions connected with the
dispensary. the sale OF sample and
complimentary liquors and the entire
disregard OF the law with reference
TO request books and the like. Con-
siderable effort is being made to get
Mr.. Huseman into the position
where he will have to testify as to
who the contributors were to the
Spartanburg Journal fund, which he
raised in Columbia. with which to
fight prohibition in Spartanburs
county. The chief witness today was
County Supervisor D. NJ. Miles. who
for three wears was member OF the
state board OF control. he stated chat
he voluntarily quit the board because
things begain to look suspicious to
him and as he was an honest man he
did not want to get mixed up with the
affair. After resigning from the
board he came here and has twice
been elected supervisor. He stated
that he had very good reasons to be-
lieve that things were not stralght
at the state dispensary. He offered
TO answer any direcI question that
was propounded good naturedly and
not to answer eliminating questions,
because he said. he might do some
one an injustice. He was convinced
that liquor had been stolen from the
chief dispensary and supplied TO the
blind tigers. Those who had charge
claimed that it was paid for. but no
itemized statement of the returns
were made.
The committee will finish its work
here tomorrow. Some Of rhe chief
witnesses have declined to appear be-
fore the committee and it is not yet
determined what will be done in
such1 case. Mr.. Mahafey today tes-
titled that he had never received
money or liquor from Chairman
Evans. Mr.. Miles stated dhat when
he was member of the board OF
contro! certain dispensary officials
showed undue interest and worked
very hard for certain houses. but be-
ing entirely innocent of any wrong
doing himself he did not care to make
any charges. }. X. ~

Miss Eunice Crisp.

Thou hast all seasons for thine
own o Death!' Life has many con-
trasts. In Mr.. John Crisp's home on
Easter Sabbath the joyous wedding
bells rang out of happy hearts. Now
on the first OF August the sad funeral
dirge gives forth its m6urnful note.
Yes. the sweet spirit of loved one
takes its flight to its eternal home.
Sixteen years ago two little girl
babies, Eunice and Mamie, were
precious gifts to the home OF Mr..
and Mrs. Crisp. Fondly they were
cared for while passing through
youth into young wonlanhood. AS
worthy young women they were
much pleasure to their parents, but
now one is not. Miss Eunice was
laid to rest in Bush River church
graveyard. She and her twin sister,
Mrs. Henderson, joined this church
three years ago, a fact which gives
great comfort to the bereaved. 1t
gives a hope beyond the grave, TOR
the faithful shalt ''see the King in
His beauty"
Rev. Mr.. Burton oficiated at the
funeral. Miss Eunice loved the Sab
bath school and her church.. She was
much esteemed by her friends, was
a dutiful pupil to her teacher, and a
kind and affectionale child in her
family. She suffered five long weeks
with fever, during which time she
was carefully treated by DR.. Kl6ler
and most of the time skillfully nursed
bv Miss Belle Williams. With all
,ta: human aid could do to cure,
Coz good will was that she should
20, and now we can only sympatEllze
with rhe family, cherish the memory
of the departed and lay flower on
her grave.
For this through its leaves
Hath the white rose burst,
For this in the woods

Newberry Dispensary in Good Shape.

State Dispenser Dean dropped. IN
on Dispenser John Henry Chappell
Wednesday afternoon very unex-
pectedly to examine the books. The
doors of the dispensary were closed
until Mr.. Dean got through checking
up the books. which is very graft
fving. in view of the fact that
scandal is being unearthed in the dis
pensary affairs of Spartanburg county.
1t was quite amusing to see the
crowd OF negroes awaiting on the
outside during the investigation, and
when the doors were opened there
was a grand rush for booze.

POISON WAS IN TURKEY EGG.
And # Caused the Death of the Negro
Who Stole It.

Columbia. Aug. 7.-According to a
letter received by the governor from
T. NJ. Ward, a prominent CITIZEN OF
Wards on the Augusta road, an IN
vestigation is wanted OF a myster'-
OTIS case of poisoning which took
place near there some time ago.
1t seems, according to the letter,
that little negro boy, SON OF a
negro named Jim Ryan, ate turkey
egg which he had stolen from a nest
and died a few hours afterwards. An
examination OF tlne egg showed that
there was strychnine in it and that
it had evidently been prepared tor
this very purpose. However, the cor
oner was ill and the investigation
made by his substitute was very
ordinary character. so no arrests have
been made.
These facts, as set forth. in the let
ter has led to the whole thing beng
placed in the hands of the solicitor
with instructions 70 push the i1lrestl-
CATION. Mr.. Ward comments rather
critically on the fact that solicitors
have not been very industrious in
looking into such matters and that
if the case were investigated a sur-
prise would follow.
