We would rather die first is the sub

the soldiers. A fight was almost star

countered a sentinel Of the 10th caval-

OF the path and rudely bumped
against the soldier. Only the inter-
yention Of some cavalrymen preven-
ted a serious encounter, as other IN

Weak
Hearts

Are due to indigestion. Nnety-nine OF every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when it was simple indiges-
ton. Iii scientific fact that all cases OF
heart disease. not organic. are not only
traceabe to, but are the direct result of indi-
ges.ion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting it up against the
heart. This interferes with the action Of
the heart, and in <he course Of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

WILL ABOLISH DEATH PENALTY.
French Cabinet Approves Measure
Doing Away With Capital Punish
ment.

Paris, Oct. So.-The Cabinet held a
meeting today and approved meas
ure providing for the abolition of the
death penalty. This means that Par
lament in its coming session will en-
act a law to that effect-such action
has been expected since the Office OF
Monsieur De Paris" or public execu-
tor, was suppressed a few months ago
by the exclusion of his salary from
the budget. At that time neither the
sarrien ministry nor the Chamber OF
Deputies took formal action declaring
that capital punishment would no
longer be inflicted in France, but M.
clemenceau, the new prime minister
has decided on taking a definite step
to that end.

st. George. Oct. 23.-The trial OF
the State, with Mr.. S. E. Kaiser as
prosecuting witness, against NUMBER
OF negroes, charged with CONSPIRACY
growing out }of the lynching Of Will
Spain, was called before Magistrate j..
w. Cummings promptly at 10 O'CLOCK
this morning and consumed the entire
day. Judging from the large NUMBER
of white citizens from far and near
there was more interest manifested
in the proceedings in this case than III
any previous trial in Dorchester coun-
ty. The case has been unusually In
teresting, both on account OF the
principle involved and because Of the
infrequency of such trials.
The preliminary today develo PED
the fact that at the inquest OF Will
Spain, a negro who was lynched near
here some time since, a crowd Of ne
groes. was present, who, when the 1n-
terment. was about to take place, held
a caucus, the result of which was that
they banded themselves together by
electing leader, as testified to by one
Of the co-conspirators, a captain. This
band was formed for the purpose, as
developed in the testimony, Of pre-
venting any negro from assisting in
the burial Of Spain. Nothing was
brought out at the preliminary
which would indicate why this was
DONE but it is supposed that they
took the position that, since Spain had
been lynched by white people, he
should be buried by white people.
The conspirators went so far, it
appears, to send one Of their number
to several negroes who had been en-
gagged to bury SPANS body, warning
them that if they did they would suf-
fer bodily harm or be put where Spain
was 1t was also developed by infer
entail and circumstantial evidence
that this same combination was in
strumental in bringing about injury
to Mr.. Kiser, to the extent of preven-
ting any Of the race from laboring
for him.
AS a result of the proceedings had
today four of the parties charged in
the Indictment were committed to Jail
to await trial at the next ensuing
term Of Court for Dorchester county.
Their names are Henry Wyndham,
Grant Wyndham, Gap Hodges and FL
lie Freeman
Much interest has been manifested
in the case from its incipiency, due to
the fact that the determination Of the
principle involved would mean much
to the community. Attention was first
concentrated on the n1andamus pro-
ceedings which were had before Judge
Ernest Gary at Chambers, the object
Of which was to force Magistrate
Cummings to recede from his po-
sition refusing to grant the motion
for change Of venue. Judge Gary
sustained the magistrate, and the
change of venue was denied.-News

| MOVEMENT FOR PRACTICAL
REFORM.
We Have Had Our Exposures: the
Peoples Lobby" Will Now Get
Down to Business.

Writing Of the Peoples Lobby, the
bureau to be established at Washing
ton this winter to disseminate infor-
nation regarding the good or vicious
features Of proposed congressional
legislation. Samuel Merwin Of the ed
itorial staff Of Success Magazine,
which is promoting the movement
says Of the men chosen to form the
governing committee:
:'They represent a great many diff
ferent interests in life. They approach
the question from many different di-
rections. You will find on this COM
mittee men Of mature experience and
men Of youth and enthusiasm. Not
a man has a panacea to stuff down
our throats. They are clean, square
men Of today, men Of ideas, men Of
moral and ethical standards. They
know that right is right, and wrong
wrong They know that the congress
man who slides a joker into a bill is
a liar and a sneak. They know that
the senator or speaker who trades
in the necessities Of his constituents,
who uses the power Of high Office to
make money, is'a pitiful rascal.
"The work before these committee
men is simple and plain. 1t is not
their Office to play into the hands Of
this party or that. 1t is their Office
to see that Congress. comes out of its
subterranean channels, its tortuous
passages, its hidden closets, and work
in the light, where every voter in this
land can see what is going on, all the
time. The committee will not take
sides on debatable questions. 1t will
throw its white light into the dark
corners It will assume that all
measures which shrink from that
light are bad measures, and will drag
them. out for your inspection. The
Peoples Lobby will not try to settle
the tariff question, when, as it in
evitably must, that question comes up.
But it will very likely exhibit to the
voters some strange wrigglings and
cravings in those dark corners we
have been talking about. Hereafter
t. responsibility for every congress
sional action or inaction will be fixed
on individuals Senator'S ad congress
men will no longer be able to dodge
the responsibility that is theirs. In
language, again, they must stand for
what they do The experience will
be novel, but we trust it will be salu-
tary. They will no longer be able to
fool their constituents, for those con-
stituents will have at hand cold,
dispassionate, accurate statement of
every mans record. A post card will
fetch such statement. If the news
papers won't print it, the magazines
will.

CLEMSON COLLEGE REPORT.
Income From Fertilizer Tag Tax
shown to Be Exactly S164,996.s2.

Anderson, Oct. 29.-Judging from
the newspaper editorials and the talks
Of individuals, Clemson college will
come in for a big share Of the time of
the next general assembly.
knowing that the annual report Of
the board Of trustees Of Clemson col
lege was being prepared, your cor
respondent called on Col. r. W. Simp-
son, chairman Of that board, at Pen
dleton yesterday. The finance COM
mittee will meet next Friday night at
Clemson college to put the annual re-
port in writing, at which time the
newspapers of the State will be fur
nished with copy of the report.
The report will show that Clemson
college secured from the privilege tax
on fertilizers and cotton seed meal be-
tween July 1, 1905, and July 1, 1906,
exactly s164,9s6.S2. From this large
amount must be deducted the amount
of the unused tags which amount is
s6,642.7e, so really s15S,354.0S is
what the college secured.

After deducting this amount from
the s15S,35403, leaves Clemson col
lege proper s122, 2,o30S0 with which
to operate the college. To this amount
should be added the income from pay
cadets. Which amounts to about 500
coo annually, Which gives a grand to-
tai Of s142,O3O.so.
There are about 500 cadets at the
college this year and if t,1is number
is divided into the s142,O30.S0, the
cost of each cadet annually is 1886. IL.
In making up these figures, il must
not be forgotten that the college IS
always making some Improvements.
The equipments Of the various depart
ments are always being renewed. The
college being a textile and mechanical
one. there are always some equip
nnents to be added, and the cost Of
operating a college such as Clemson
is much greater than the cost Of an
ordinary literary college. Therefore,
the s236,71 is not the right amount
to be used as the cost of each cadet.
The experimental station is sup
ported by the United States govern
ment. The Hatch fund provides s15,-
600 annually for the station. The
Adams amendment, which passed the
last congress, provides for $4,000 ad-
ditional this year, and the amount is
to be increased by $4,000 annually
until the station income is $4,000.
The experimental station is not only
supported by the United States gov
eminent, but it is operated by the
government The affairs Of the sta
ton do not connect with the affairs
