In Loving Memory

OF my dear wife, Corrie Frick, nee
Corrie Ballentine, who died January
Is, 1907, by one who loved her:
Fresh as the grass our bodies stand,
And flourish bright and gay;
The Lord has come in my home again
And took my dear wife away.
Dearest one you have left me,
And lonely my heart is today;
How I miss your gentle footsteps
And each kind word you say.
My good and happy home on earth is
darkened,
For my dear one has gone to stay;
I shall no more see her on earth,
For the dear Lord has called her
away.
All and all I had. on earth,
But I know the Lord knoweth best;
Thou gavest her spirit at her birth
And T know she is at rest.
So far away my dear one,
You have only gone before;
To meet our dear baby that we loved
And hope one day ! shall knock at
your door.
How dark that day and the day that
followed,
That dreary eve of pain,
Those loving eyes now closed never
more
To open here again.
Dear one how I loved you,
No pen can write no tongue can
tell;
But the gentle shepherds have called
you,
I must bid you a long farewell.
Just a few months ago to-day,
The Lord took our dear baby away;
And now has come 20 soon again
And took dear Corrie to dwell with
him.
The last word that she spoke,
Was for me to meet her in heaven,
And our dear little girl that is gone
before,
And now, dear lord, help me to
love thee MORE.
Written by her lonely husband.

Russell sage's Maxims On Life

s.elr ##rs -.
The tender care of a good wife is
the finest thing in the world.
When you have made your fortune
tits time enough to think about spend
ing it.
A boy who knows bargains in socks
makes a man who knows bargains in
stocks.
There is no such thing as a money
curse. A good man cannot have too
much money.
The longer a man lives the more
mistakes he may be counted upon to
make.
Clubs are only a place for idle men
and wasteful young men.
An active man builds success upon
q foundation of failure; passive men
do not.
Real charity is dispensed without
the blare of trumpets.
Two suits of clothes are enough for
q young man.
Aserge suit and a linen suit are
enough for summer and should last
two seasons. Seven dollars is plenty
to pay for the serge, and you can get
a fine, cool linen suit for So. so to 81.
Fifty cents is enough to pay for a
straw hat, and then it should last two
seasons. These extra fancy hat bands
are just SO much waste.-From cpl
grammatic sayings of Russell Sage.

Planting Cotton Third Time.

New Orleans, May "a third plant
ing of cotton will be necessary in Lin.
coin parish, La, on account of the
unreasonable weather. Overdows
caused by heavy rains r the cause
of the latest disaster to the crop. The
farmers n ray of hope in the situa-
ton is that the wet weather has in
some measure drowned out the boil
weevil.
Gloster, Miss, also reports that a
new planting of cotton will be neces-
sary. In both sections complaints
are made that seed is very scarce and
high priced.

Lynching Barely Averted.

A lynching was barely averted at
Decatur, Ala, last week by the
prompt action of the authorities, who
speedily organized a grand jury, in
dicted a negro named Lipscomb and
spirited him off to Birmingham. for
safe keeping. The negro had at
tempted an assault on Mrs. Schrump-
sher, a daughter of former sheriff
Silas P. Ryan. She was alone in the
back yard of her home when attacked
and her creams frightened the assail-
ant away. He was later captured and
identified.

Lexington Will Sell Beer 70
Columbians.
Lexington county is blessed with a
dispensary board whose members
have plenty of sense and no preju-
dices.
The Lexington board is blessed with
attorneys who give it good advice.
Ali this is very good for Lexington
county.
The Carey-Cothran statute is a re-
markable law. Study of it reveals
manY provisions in it which may be
surprises to the majority which en-
acted it.
Section 6 of the statute says: "The
members Of the said county dispen-
sary board are hereby declared to be
county officers, and are hereby au-
thorized and empowered under the
authority and in the name Of this
state to buy in any market and retail
within the state liquors and beverages
as provided herein"
1t will be noticed that county boards
are authorized to ''retal within the
state'' and their sales r not restrict
ed to their own counties. The only
restrictions upon their sales is con-
tanned in section II Of the Carey-Coth-
ran Law, which says:
mo sale or delivery permitted un-
der this act shall be made,on Sunday,
ON a general or primary election day,
{ on q legal holiday, OF between sum
set and sunrise of any day; nor shall
It be lawful for dispensaries to ship
liquors or beverages into q county
where there is no dispensary."
Anybody with a grain Of sense can,
easily see that the law. permits the
county board of any county to make
sales in any other county where there
are dispensaries, though it cannot sell
IN prohibition counties.
There is q great demand in Rich
land for fresh Schlitz beer, which
was bottled and sold under the state
dispensarylaw by J. Best Lection, who
was granted in the Carey-Cothran law
q license to continue such bottling
and sale.
Readers Of The Record are familiar
with the way in which the Richland
county board has treated Bother Let
ton and refused to- buy his fresh
Schlitz beer.
At it's meeting yesterday the Lex
ington county board bought q large
amount Of fresh Schlitz beer for sale
In Richland as well as Lexington
county, which it has q perfect right
to do undert the sections quoted above,
~ must be plainly evident to even a
person OF mediocre intelligence.
It has appointed q clerk who will
reside in Columbis and attest the sig
natures upon orders for Schltz beer.
The orders will be forwarded TO and
filed in Lexington and'Bottler Lection
viii be instructed to FILL them. Pay
ments will be made for beer to the
Lexington board which will pay Bot
tier Letton for all orders he filed.
The schlitz beer will be sold by the
Lexington board in Columbia at the
same price which prevailed under the
old dispensary law, Is cents a dozen,
delivered. Orders for this beer can
be phoned to 81 and the clerk of the
Lexington dispensary will call to at
test the signature of the prospective
purchaser upon his order.-Columbia

WILL PAY EXPENSES
OF TENNIS TEAM

NEW YORK, February Cat the twenty
sixth annual meeting OF the United States
National Lawn Tennis Association. held at
the Waldorf-Astoria last night, the chief
point of discussion was the method of send
Ing team to Europe to compete for the
Dwight F. Davis international cup. When
d. c. Trask moved that a team be sent
abroad under the same conditions as last
year some very warm discussion ensued
A team, however, win undoubtedly go
abroad and have its expenses paid as here
tofore.
Mr.. Taylor Of Philadelphia maintained
that 1t deteriorated from the standard Of
tennis by paying the expenses of the team,
as he considered 1t professionalized the
men. He made a motion to have the clause
relating to financial details" omitted. If
the personnel Of the team were satisfac-
tory to the executive committee. This
brought forth storm of protests. and
when taken to vote the motion was de-
feated.
Five new clubs were admitted to men,
bership at the meeting. They were the

Trenton c. c., Trenton, N. j.: Irvington
c. c., Portland, Ore; Sycamore T. c., Lake

The other business OF Importance at the
meeting was the decision to incorporate
the body, probably under the laws of Rhode
vent school boys from playing In more
than one interscholastic tournament in a
year.
Thirty-one clubs were represented by del
egates, twenty by proxies and sixty clubs
were not represented.

HANDB00KS IN USE
AT HOT SPRINGS

HOT SPRINGS, Ark, February 6-Races
were run at Oaklawn yesterday and will
very probably be run today, but the general
belief Is that Oaklawn track will close be-
fore the week Is out. 1t now transpires
that the supposed bookmakers arrested In
the betting ring on bench warrants issued
by Judge Sumpter were all dummies. Con-
iident that the raid would be made, but
that the raiders would allow some business
10 be done before making arrests the book
makers placed dummy layers in the stands
and made fake bets until the officers made
their swoop- AS soon as the raiders were
fairly out of the grounds the genuine lay
ers got down to business until the officers
were known to be ready for another raid.
In making their arrests the deputies gath
cred in entire crews In each case
Yesterday the betting was all done by
landlords, hence no official track odds can
be given. This eastern style of placing
money will be used as long as the Oakllwn
races continue.
The sudden curtailment of the Hot
Springs meeting will work great hards hip
to many horsemen, especially those with
small strings.

WORDS OF WISDOM
FROM CONNIE MACK

Connie" Mack says he never has trouble
with the older members of his team re-
garding the salary question, that it is the
younger ones who raise the fuss. Com
menting on the salary matter, he said the
other day: Il never have any trouble with
the old players. They know how matters
stand and are easy to handle. As an exam
pie of that, l can give an incident that hap
pened before the settlement Of the trouble
with the outlaw Tri-State League. One of
my players came to me and said he thought
ne would jump to the outlaw league this
season. l told him 1t was matter for him
to decide alone and that / wouldn't offer
any suggestion. If he wanted to go he
would have gone. simply told him 1 would
not tell him he could go. He didn't go. !
guess he is thankful now that he didn't t.
But, speaking of young players, recently
sent blank contract to a young player
who Will be on my team next season. Last
year he got $50 month tor four months
playing, total of $3.50 for the season. !
sent him a contract calling for salary of
$1,000 for the season. He returned the
contract, saying if 1 would make the fig
ures s., 800 he would sign.
IF l were able to meet him and talk to
him a few minutes it would not take long
to show him that he is wrong. A manager
can't afford to make the salary of an I'M
tried youngster too high, and that's some
thing 1 don't do. II a young player makes
good with me he doesn't have to play at the
figures he signs for, make it a rule to in
crease salaries any time during the season
when player shows me that he can de-
liver the goods. / have raised player as
much as 81, 900 a season, and did it in the
middle of the season, too. Young players
have strange notions. For instance, they
sometimes ask for advance, money, and get
it. Then when their blank contract comes
along to be signed they insert q clause that
the advance money is not to be taken from
their salaries. OF course such interlinea-
tiOnS no onf Ruf =
simply shows that the young players are
not easy to handle. The expenses of run
ming team in the major leagues are much
more than they used to be. Some years
ago we could run team through the sea-
son with fourteen or fifteen men on the
salary list. Now we have to carry as many
as twenty. l have half a dozen pitchers,
four catchers. and we have to carry two
extra outfielders and extra infielders that
makes quite a difference in the pay roll
over a few years ago"

ONE SUPERSTITION
OF BALL PLAYERS

CHICAGO. February 6-"Although every
ball player and almost every spectator has
some superstition all his own, and generally
very dear to his heart, do you know there
Is one universal superstition" asked Pop
Arson few days ago.
LET me Illustrate Arson went on.
Suppose at a game in Pittsburg Phil
lippe IL pitching against New York and
that up to the ninth inning McGraw's men
have not made hit.
''Now, every bali player and almost every
spectator knows or feels that this is the
time for silence. Let some player remark:
why, New York hasn't made q hit yet
and then and there some Giant player will
poke out safety.
"Or suppose Leach at third has accepted
fifteen chances without slip and some
spectator--who isn't yersed In this super
stition--remarks to his neighbor: Gee
Tommie is playing q great game Fifteen
chances and no errors and sure as you're
alive the next ball hit to third Will be
fumbled or thrown Wild.
Well, I remember the first game Bad
Bill Eagan ever played at short for the
Chicago team. It SO happened that the OBJ
posing team hit almost everything at Eagan
that day and he was soon the most popular
player on my team. Every chance was q
desperate one, but Bad Bill made 1t look
easy.
..As the ninth inning began spectator
bent over the rail and said: Great man.
eleven chances without an error so far
THAT was enough. The next ball hit to
Ea&an he threw ten miles over my head.
and Ne iost tho Game saghs thsa anA there.'
