A Case Of Mistaken Identity.

A young man of some note in the jour-
nalistic and literary world was at crowd.
ed evening party, standing in an upstairs
corridor. To him lady in magnificent
dress and sparkling with jewels came with
great eagerness. Though she was un-
known to him, he modestly supposed she
had recognized him by the light of Gen
ius shining on his Hyperion brow, OF
that she knew him by reputation. He
was therefore prepared to receive her
with smiles,
l"Are you the waiter?" she demanded
aNo!" he retorted with looks of thund-
er, care you the chambermaid?" And he
hurried downstairs.

We heartily wish Comptroller General
Jones good luck in his efforts to equalize
taxes. he has set himself formidable
task, but we trust he will not become dis
couraged, but "keep everlastingly at it"
until taxes are really equalized. The tax
dodger is one of the greatest nuisances
we have, and it would astonish one to
see the tax returns of many people in
Bamberg county. Too many people think
it is all right to defraud the government
when it comes to returning their prop
erty,

TO AID COkViCTS' FAMILIES
Bill to Be Drawn After Outline of
Missourf's Governor.

Bill to Be Drawn After Outline of
Missourf's Governor.
Charles Parsons of st. Joseph, Mo-.
representing the Missouri Society For
the Friendless, addressed a large open
air meeting on the courthouse lawn at
Macon, Mo-, the other evening, says
the Kansas City Star. Sr. Parsons
has made a special study Of criminol-
ogy the last seventeen or eighteen
years and IS confident that much good
can be done for the fallen and espe-
cially those who have made their first
misstep by the direction of systematic
effort in their behalf. One Of the main
objects Of the society IS to find en-
ploynent for the men who are dis
charged with the brand Of penitentiary
upon their shoulders. he says that in
this state work has been obtained for
$50 of such and that only twelve of
that number have returned to evil
ways.
your governor, Mr.. Folk, has asked
our superintendent at Topeka, the Rev.
E A. :Fredenhagen, to prepare an i'm
portant bill relating to convicts for
submission to the next legislature" he
said. "Thts bill is to provide for the
convict's family receiving an appreci-
able percentage of his earnings, as
outlined in a speech by Governor Folk
some months ago. AS every one
knows, the greatest sufferers by the
sudden removal Of the head Of the
family are the wife and children. Al
most as If by the visitation Of death
they are thrown upon the charity Of
the world If a portion Of the wages
Of the husband can be turned over to
the family it will prove a blessing in
many ways. It VIII make the convict
feel that be is working for something
In which be Is personally interested
and it VIII have a strong tendency to
draw him closer to the ones outside
who love him, whether he loves them
or not If there is any good In him at
all he Will take pleasure In the thought
that those dependent upon him are not
entirely at the mercy Of circumstances,
and for this he will be grateful to the
state which has enacted such benefi-
cial law in his behalf and less likely to
60 wrong when restored to liberty"

Bamberg is the best cotton market in
this section. One of the export buyers
here told US a few days ago that prices
were higher here than elsewhere, in fact
he said the buyers here were losing mon
ey on their purchases. Our merchants
are showing a fine spirit in paying above
the market for cotton. This course not
only brings cotton to Bamberg, but it
helps the farmers to pay their debts in
this year of exceedingly short crops.

Shot by His Own Invention.

Leopold Fuchs, the keeper Of poul'
try shop at Charlottenburg, near Ber'
lin, was the victim Of his own contiv'
ance against thieves. He had placed
an automatic pistol above the entrance
to the shop which would fire at the in
truders like a machine gun as soon as
the spring at the threshold was tod,
den upon. He forgot where the dan
ger spot was while locking up his
place. with the result that the pistol
shot him repeatedly. At the hospita! to
which the neighbors took him thirty
six pellets were found in his body. His
condition Is dangerous.

"Your honor" complained Mrs. Mary
Demetris to Recorder Lazarus in court
at Bayonne, N. j., "my husband here
came home, picked quarrel with me
and struck me in the face several
times. I did not give him any provo
cation, but tried to pacify him."
Recorder Lazarus, who hates wife
beater, is fond Of ordering punish
ments which are strange, but there
fore more likely to be remembered.
II am going to rid this city Of men
who beat their wives" said he, scowl-
ing at Demetris, who looked shame
faced. "And to begin I will give all
such who are brought before me dose
Of their own medicine.

your husband into the next room.
There you will strike him In the face

Perhaps the shame Of It will cure him

glance at her husband, then looked at

to her. She hesitated q moment or

walked into the anteroom. Demeris
followed meekly. She closed the door
behind them.
Every one in the courtroom listened
intent1y for moment. Then ''smack," /"

An exclamation Of masculine suffer
