James Crichton Langdon was impera-
lively summoned to London. and given
such lecture by Mr.. Abingdon that he
so far abandoned the error of his WAYS
as to strive to forget that such a person
as Evelyn Atherley existed.
The ex-magistrate had seen him in De
vonshire, and was so skepticaI of his
statements concerning the whereabouts
of Sir Philip and lady Morland that he
travelled direct to York, via Gloucester
and Birmingham, to clear up with Philip
in person a mystery rendered more dense
by the curious letter and telegram he re-
cived in London.

RACE ISSUE is DANGEROUS.
Colonel Youngblood Says TiIIman
Speaks No Idle Words.

Colonel William Youngblood of Ala
bama, former auditor in the treasury
department and a prominent republi-
can, in an interview at the national
capital, declared that a great danger
is ahead of the nation, because of the
race question.
Senator Tillnan speaks no idle
words" he says. "a great danger is
ahead of us. 1t is strange that a gov
eminent which runs off to civilize
the Filipinos, to relieve the oppressed
Cuban, and which is so powerful as to
bring peace between Russia and jap
an is too powerless or so Indifferent
to the protection of the life, liberty
and property of its own subjects. The
only remedy of the race issue is the
election of a nonsectional, non-racial
man to the PRESIDENCY"

Havana, Oct. 21.-Reports received
by Governor Magoon this afternoon
from the provincial governors show
that the hurricane was less disastrous
than at first believed. The storm was
confined mainly to the provinces of
Havana and Pinar del Rio. Batabano,
32 miles southeast of Hanava, was the
only town except the capital which
suffered greatly.
The mayor of that place reports
that nine persons we're killed and that
many are missing. The American
steamers Campbell, plying between
the Isle of Pines and the coast, and
the Sava went ashore and many small
craft were wrecked.
Numerous houses were blown down
and hundreds of persons are home
less and destitute.
The loss there is estimated at $780,,
600. Governor Magoon has directed
Governor Nunez of Havana province
to assist Batabano. The mayor of
and in the center of the rich tobacco
district, reports great damage to seed
tobacco, but no loss of life.
Governor Silva Of Camaguey says
that no hurricane was experienced
there.

HEAD-ON COLLISION
THREE TRAINMEN KILLED ON
The GREAT NORTHERN.
Also Three Seriously i,jured-crew
of Freight Train Disobeyed Orders
Near Everett, Wash.-crash With
Passenger Train FoIIowed-Two
Other Freight Trains Just Escaped.

Everett, Wash, Oct. 22.-The fail
ure of a freight train to obey orders
resulted in a headon collision on the
Great Northern at o'clock Sunday
morning a few miles east of Monroe.
in which three were rilled, three seri-
ously injured and others bruised. The
dead:
Freight Engineer J. e. Hudson.
Freight Fireman A. w. Riddell
Freight Fireman Patrick Sheridan.
The injured: Passenger Engineer
George Lawrence, Passenger Conduc-
tor WetIell.
The freight was an extra, east
bound. 1t had orders to meet No.
PIT, the Skykomish local at Monroe.
Arriving at Monroe the crew of the
train believed they had time to make
Sultan, the first station east of
Monroe.
Immediately after leaving Monroe
the train broke down and was de-
layed some time. Just after they had
started up the collision took place.
The track at this point is tortuous,
winding around the Snohomish
Neither engineer could see the other
train until they were within 100 feet
of each other. The trains came to-
gether with terrific impact. Both
engines left the track. Their crews
stuck to their posts till the last min
ute. That there were not many IA
talities among the passengers is due
to the lightness of the train, consist
ing only of three cars, and that the
heivy freight was going up grade.
Passengers hurried from the coaches
and assisted in extracting the dead
and injured. Fireman Riddell of the
freight train was found sitting head
less beside his engine. His engineer.
Hudson, was not found until late in
the afternoon, his body being buried
under the ponderous freight engine.
Both the engineer and fireman Of
the passenger were badly scalded.
Fireman Sheridan died on me way to
the hospital in Everett. Engineer
Lawrence was brought to the hospital
here and the physicians say his burns
are not fatal. Lawrence has a wife
and two children in Seattle; Hudson
also has family in Everett. All the
others were unmarried.
Conductor Erickson of the freight
train was placed under arrest by
Deputy Sheriff Brown at Snohomish
at the instance of Coroner Mum. The
coroner will hold an inquest at Sno-
homish tomorrow afternoon.
The escape of the freight trains
from a disastrous wreck between
Leavenworth and Cashmere was a
narrow one, and that the engines did
not come together is due to the fact
that when first seen by the engineers
the trains were on level stretch OF
track between the two towns. The
wheels did not cease revolving until
the engines nearly touched each 9TH
err A mistake in the train orders or
their misleading is assigned as the
cause of the blunder.

MAJOR A. t. SMYTHE TELLS OF THE MA u
AGENENT AND AFFAIRS OF THE INsTI-
TUTION-SAYS IT'S WELL MANAGED
Another Farmer Scores the College for the wav
Attendants the Farmers Institute
Were Cared For,

the trustees were in the habit of re.
ceiying, besides their actual expenses,
8 Pc: diem Of ss44, and that this tended
to keep them hanging around the
college indefinitely, on the pretense
of serving on committees. This is
entirely erroneous. When was
first elected trustee the law allowed
members of the Board of Fertilizer
Control, consisting of four trustees, a
per diem of So in lieu of expenses,
but it was found that this did not
cover the actual expenses of the
members of the board attending it's
meetings. When the laws were re-
codified in 1902 in some way this
provision was omitted, and, therefore,
such payment was stopped. No
other per diem was ever allowed or
charged. All that the trustees have
ever received was their actual ex-
penses in attending the meetings of
the board. There has never been
any legislation which 1 have ever
known directing that the trustees
should not receive per diem, and 1
don't think there is any such.
l remember that at one meeting
this question Of per diem was dis
oussed, and it was decided almost
unanimously that it was not an open
question, and that no per diem could
be paid, and none ever was.
1t is charged that all the choice
products of the dairy, horticultural
department and other supplies go to
the professors and not 70 the students.
The professors are not allowed TO
buy any supplies from the butcher or
caterer during the term. In fact one
cause of complaint among the profess
sors is that they are not allowed to
get their meat from the butcher or
their other supplies from the pur-
veyors of the institution.
1t is urged again that the privilege
tax which was pleged to Clemson
College for its support at the time
the Clemson bequest was accepted
should now be divertod and paid into
the State treasury, and 80 much as
the Legislature saw fit should be ap-
propriated Gy annual Act of the Leg
islature. Thsre are two answers to
this proposition:
First. The Legislature at the time
that I lie Clemson bequest was offered
and accepted, and as part of that
transaction, pledged this privilege
tax in good faith without limit as to
time or amount to the support of the
college. 1t was contract entered
into by the State for valuable con-
sideration received. Whether wise
or not was question for Legislative.
determination, and the Legislature,
after full discussion and considerable
opposition, decided the question and
entered into the contract. AS I have
said, | opposed it at the time; still 1
always felt and do feel that it was a
contract which the Legislature had
power to make, and when it made it
and received the consideration tho
