Hon. ID. S. Henderson, Aiken, S. G..
Dear Sir: | am in receipt of commu-
nication signed by yourself and other
members of the Aiken bar expressing
your views as to the advisability of
calling an extra term of the court of
general sessions for Aiken county to
try the ease of Isaac Knight for Grim
inal assault, committed in Aiken coun-
ty. | am also IN receipt Of number
Of petition signed by the citizens Of
Aiken requesting that such court he
held.
Repl wing, | beg To refer You to sec
ti"n 2744 Of Code of Laws Of South
Carolina, 1902, volume |, which says
that the solicitor may make applca-
tion to the governor for an cxtral
term of court of general sessions in
any county of the state when he thinks
that the public interest demands such
term Of court. When such applica-
ton is made il becomes the duty of
the governor I" appoint some one
learned in the law and suggested by
the chief justice to hold such trm.
Cndrr these circumstances | feel
that the only course can take in the
matter referred tn me is to forward al!
papers in the ease To Solicitor Davis
and rs soon as hear from him will
take action in the matter.
ID. {. IIpVWard. Governor
Mr.. NJ. Y. Holly, the gentleman who
presented the citizen*' petition to the

from the governor.
The Petition.
The petition from the Aiken citizens
follows:
"To His Excellency, d. G. Hayward,
Governor.
"Thc assault upon Mrs. f.. S. Chap
in by the negro Isaac Knight, which
was committed on the night of Sun
day. the Sth of July. is regarded as
an outrage by the white citizens of
Aiken county. Knight has been cap
tured and is now in the custody Of the
officers of the law. Since his arrest
and since hearing his story Of the
crime, there has been talk of lynching
in our county, but good citizens. be-
ieving in the enforcement of law,
have discouraged such talk. However,
there is considerable unrest among
our people, who believe that if this
man is guilty he should be punished
mt once, and that such quick punish
ment would have Il beneficial effect
in future eases, and would encourage
the people of the state and Of the
county to resort to the law and dis
courage lynching.
"We therefore, humbly. petition
your exeellency to order special
c"nr of general sessions to be held
in Aiken county, for the purpose of
trying this ease, as soon as is possible
under the provisions Of the law, be-
levin" that the public interest de-

Red, White, Green Seas.


 The colors of pure ocean water and the varying shades observed where i'm purities are met with are diversified by the coloring effects of the enormous multitudes of various forms of organ lzed life which sometimes mask the natural color of the surface of the sea and tinge extensive areas with remark able colOrs. Red appears to be most frequently met with. In the southern parts of the Red sea and in the Ara bian gulf large areas are colored blood red by microscopic animalcClSe, and in the Indian ocean similar forms of life cause, In addition to red, milk white or yellow spots of great extent, the appearance of which is frequently alarming to the ignorant sailor. On the Guinea coast ships sometimes ap, pear to float in milk. Extensive red streaks are also known to occur in the south Atlantic and south Pacific, which are caused by hosts of small red crus- tacea. The "Vermilion sea" of Cali fornia owes its brilliant color to in- fusoria. Areas colored green have been noted, especially in the arctic regions, which are due to myriads of diatoms, and In some portions of the antarctic seas diatoms of rusty color make the water a dirty brown.

Equipped with nothing but their skill

a proud and brave people. Meat Is
their principal food, although berries

The meat Is now pulverlzed to the

SURVEY PARTY
 AT THE RAPIDS

On the Lavelle Young last Saturday was large government survey party with The Rapids, 37 miles down the river, as the objective point.
 Congress made an appropriation for a preliminary survey in order to deter mine the feasibility of route for build ing a railroad or wagon road from the upper Panama across the Yukon at The Rapids and on in westerly direction to Nome.
 This is the duty assigned to the party referred to. The stay at Rampant was limited and the particulars of the pro- posed work was not learned, but it is understood the party will divide at The Rapids and one section work toward Fairbanks, while the other will cross the Yukon and work westward to the koyukuk and in the direction of Nome.
 The necessary packhorses were aboard the Young, and Frank Rogers was taken on here as a packer to replace a man who had been kicked and severely injured on the way down.
