roll, and the privilege of a good green
pasture, soon puts him in marching

The sergeant now left the room.

thought a better thought, and you
never contrived better act, than just

Henry, II can sling 1t with a strap.

as a smile rose on her features.

Columbia, April 3: Agitation has
started again in the interest of the new
county which it is proposed to form OF
parts of Greenvile Laurens and Spar
tanburg counties, with Fountain Inn
as the county seat. An erroneous i'm
preston seems to prevail that a petl-
ton has been filed with the governor,
asking him to call an election. NO
such petition has been received by him.
There are being received at the gov
ernor's office requests for a conference
before the council provided for I'm the
act of 1906. The last Legislature pass
ed an act giving Fountain Inn author
ity to hold an election on the question
of issuing $4,000 in bonds to build
court house and Jail in case that coun-
ty Is made Those portions OF Green
vile, Spartanburg and Laurens coun-
ties which it Is proposed to form the
new county from Is a splendid farming
section, and will make a rich county.
But, of course, the scheme Will be
fought by all three of the old counties.
The fight is just beginning.

SUBMERGED GUNS.
The Experiment Of Firing a Cannon
Buried Under Water.

Buried Under Water.
The most curious experiment ever
made with a piece Of ordnance was at
Portsmouth, England. A stage was
erected in the harbor within the tide
mark. On this an Armstrong gun Of
the 10 pound pattern was mounted.
The gun was then loaded and carefully
during the time of low tide. A few
hours later, when the gun and the tar
get were both covered with water to
depth of six feet, the gun was fired by
means of electricity. We said aimed
at a target" but the facts are that
there were two targets, but only one
was erected for this special expert
ment, the other being the hull Of an
old vessel, the Griper, which lay d.
rectly behind the target and in range
Of the ball. The target itself was
placed on twenty-five feet from the
muzzle of the gun. It was composed Of
oak beams and planks and was twen-
ty-one inches thick.
In order to make the old Griper in
vulnerable a sheet Of boiler plate three
inches thick was riveted to the water
logged hull, in direct range with the
course the ball was expected to take,
II not DETECTED by the water. On all Of
these-the oaken target, the boiler
plates and the old vessel hull-the ef-
feet of the shot from the submerged
gun was really startling. The wooden
target was pierced through and
through, and the boiler iron target was
broken into pieces and driven into its
"backings," the ball passing right on
through both sides of the vessel, max
ing huge hole, through which the wa
ter poured in torrents. Taken alto
gether, the experiment was an entire
success, demonstrating, as 1t did, the
feasibility of placing submerged guns
In harbors in time of war and doing
great damage to the vessels which an
enemy might dispatch to such points
for the purpose. Of shelling cities

Resolution of Sympathy Adopted by
 New York Senate.

Albany, March 1S-On motion of Sen ator Armstrong the senate to-day adopted the following concurrent reso- lution on the death of Miss Susan B, Anthony:
 Whereas, Because of the distin- guished character of her services dur ing the eighty-six years of her life, she had become one of the most famous and remarkable women of her time; and,
 Whereas, Because of her unceasing labor, undaunted courage and unselfish devotion to many philanthropic pur- poses and the cause of equal political rights for women, her death creates a loss which will be mourned, not alone in this country, but throughout the world; therefore,
 Resolved, That the sympathy of the fpeople of the state be extended to her family in their bereavement, and that a copy hereof be transmitted to her sis- ter, Miss Mary S. Anthony, at Roches- ter, N. Y.'
 When the resolution was presented Senator Grady said he wanted to do nothing indelicate, but he did not be- lieve the senate should place itself on record in relation to Miss Anthony's work for woman suffrage.
 Senator Armstrong said the resolution was very carefully worded, and sug- gested that it be read again for the senator's benefit.

WILL INVESTIGATE THE
 BAY STATE LEGISLATURE
DISTRICT ATTORNEY MORAN TO FIND OUT ABOUT COR-
 HUTTON.

Tells Judiciary Committee that Bill
 Providing that All District Attorneys
 of the Commonwealth Shall be Under
 Jurisdiction of Attorney General Was
 Presented Because Of His Own Ac-
 tivity-vigorousIy Opposes the Mea-
 sure as Absurd
 Boston, March 13.-District Attorney John B. Moran pledged himself to in vestigate the alleged corruption at the state house at a public hearing to-day, before the committee on judiciary on a bill which provides thar all the district attorneys of the commonwealth shall be placed under the jurisdiction of the att torney general. MT. Moran vigorously opposed the bill He characterized the measure as absurd and unnecessary. {. He said:
 During my campaign promised to investigate charges of corruption in tLis legislature and propose to keep that promise and see If there is any corruption on Beacon Hill. Now what is the motive of this measure? Can it be that any member of the legislature is afraid of an investigation? Is it be- cause the Suffolk district attorney found hotels violating liquor laws with the police commission and police cap tains winlSing at the violations? It is because investigated the Boston board or aldermen and discovered that the law had been violated in the selection of a chairman? I say to you that the law was violated and it was proved to me by evidence submitted by the alder men themselves; yet I presented this evidence and law to the grand jury which failed to return a bilP'
 MT Moran declared that his own ac- tivity was responsible for the introduc- tion of the bill, which would place his office under the direction of the attor- ney general.

NEW FRENCH CABINETS POLICY
VIII be the Same as That of the Rou-
 vler Government.

Paris, March 19.-President Fallteres to-day signed decrees nominating the new ministers, which will appear in the Official Journal tomorrow morning. A general statement of the ministerial policy will be made in the chamber of deputies in the afternoon. The cabinet at that time will express it's determina- tion to continue in M Rouvier's line of action relative to foreign affairs, which has been repeatedly approved by the parliament.
 It is understood that one of M. Bour- geois' first acts after taking over the foreign office will be a reiteration of the instructions hitherto sent to M. Revoil, the senior delegate to the conference at 4Algeciras on Moroccan reforms. These Instructions provide for the acceptance of the proposal for an inspector of Nor pecan police, but categorically reject the claim that the inspector shall hold com- mand at any port
 The ministerial statement will allude to the maintenance of the Franco-Rus- sian alliance and highly-valued friendly agreements with other powers. Inter- nal policy also will be treated of in de- tail The ministers will take the view that the church and state separation law clearly establishes the mode of pro- cedure concerning inventories and will announce that measures will be taken against the organizers of resistance.

 VERELY REPRIMANDED

Would Not DivuIge Whether There Was
 Any Connection Between the Trust
 and Other COmpanies--Ex-Senat
 COcISreIl, of the Interstate Commerce
 Commission, Expresses Weariness at
 Effort of Company to Conceal the
 Truth.
 Kansas City, Mo-, March 1a-Francis H. Cockrell, of the interstate commerce commission, severely reprimanded G, w. Mayer, Kansas City manager of the Standard oil company, to-day during the investigation into the alleged meth ods of railroads and the Standard oil company in discriminating against in- dependent oil hereabouts. Repeated ef- forts had been made to get from Mayer an admission that there was any con- nection between the Standard oil com pany, the Union Tank Line company, the Republic Oil company, the Waters. Pierce oil company and other compa- nies. To all questions MT. Mayer an swered:
 T do not know"
 At the close of his testimony Mir. Cockrell asked him;
 Tell this commission, are the Repub- lie oil company and the Waters-Pierce oil company part of the Standard oil company"
 T do not know, sir"
 What is your best impression about it?"
 T have none"
 Don't you feel and know In your heart that they are all part and parcel of the same company"
 T do not know"
 Then the veteran ex-senator slapped the desk with his fist and said severely;
 T am tired and sick of this effort made by Standard OH people to conceal this fact, when every man, woman and child knows it is so. Now, everybody wants the truth told here, and why don't you tell it? Every tub ought to stand upon it's own bottom, and you folks ought not to dodge this question further"
 Several witnesses testified to-day to discrimination by railroads against in- dependent producers.
 The hearing will be concluded to-mor- row.

 Chicago, March 13.-Prices of the traction stocks suffered severely to-day on both the New York and Chicago stock exchanges. 1n New York the price of Union Traction common stock broke almost in half, dropping from ll@ to 75s. The preferred stock, which closed last night at 46, declined to SO West Chicago showed decline of l5 points from close of 55 last night, and North Chicago was down 2S points. There were no sales of the stock of the Chicago City Railway company yester- day, and the last quotation prior to tnS opening of the stock exchanges to-day was 1931s. It changed ownership to- day at ITO. On the exchange here the break in the prices of traction stocks was attributed to the rush of small holders, who desired to get rid of their stocks at almost any price.
 A wrong interprettion placed on the first reports of the supreme court de- cision aroused much wrath among local brokers to-day. Several prominent brokerage houses were thrown com- 
 pletely on the wrong track by the first reports, which declared that the decis- ion was in favor of the companies. The amount of money involved was not great, but from the flood of angry and perplexed messages which were rained on Chicago brokers to-day it was evil dent that great many people had been sadly puzzled by the decision It IS es- timated by local f1nanciers that the de- cision of the supreme court has wiped out franchises belonging to the Union Traction company valued at anywhere from $6O, 100000 to $S5,O0O,0 GOO.
 The Union Traction company has out standing stock as follows: Preferred, $12,O0O,O0O common, $2OOOO,OOO. The two underlying companies have the fol- lowing securities: West Chicago, bonds guaranteed $17,S9OOO0, stock guaranties $l1, POT, 300; North Chicago, bonds $7,SOO,- 900, stock guaranties $6,147, 900; Chicago Consolidated Traction, bonds outstand- ing $6, ,75O 900, bonds assessed $5,875,OO0.
