The illustrations in the paper
speak for themselves. The sub
ject matter will appeal to very
large circle eff readers, as the
paper will be sent out to every
section where it will do the most
good. bearing it's message of
progress and development and
the rapidly growing reputation
of Cheraw. We hope by this
means the people will bebrought

good work of building up our
town and our section will con-
tinue on the same high plane that
1T has for former years.
No town in the United States
offers more attractions and ad-

manufacturer than Cheraw. It
possesses every qualification of
soil, climate and surroundings
that contribute to comfort, health
and happiness. Statisticians
give US an exceedingly low rate

The Chronicle and Its Work.

The Chronicle first thrust it.
self into newSpaperdom on the
5th day of November, 1895 just
exactly 13 years ago. The out.
look for a long life at that time
was pretty slim. In fact some
of our most aslute business men
predicted that The Chronicle

prediction was probably based
on the fact that others, in many
respects, especially financially,
better qualified to run a news
paper had dismally failed. How
ever, we directed every one to
the motto as printed on the
paper-'Tis' Not in Mortals to
Command Success, But Well
Do More, Well Deserve IT,.
And for thirteen long years we
have done everything in our
powerto deServesuccess. Audwe
have succeeded. Today wehave
here in Cheraw the best equip
ped little printing plant. for the
size of the town, to be found in
the State. And all that we have
accomplished is due to the loyal
ty of our friends here in Cheraw
and other sections of the coun-
ty. Without their sympathy,
advice and support we coul d
have accomplished nothing. The
Chronicle is not what we would
like il to be. We wish, for the
sake of our town and county,
that we could bring The Chron-
icle up to our ideal of a weekly
paper. This. however, we can
never hope to do. We will con-
tinue. however, to do the very
best under the circumstances
that we can to improve and make

c. T. Darlington Declares Scrugham
Told Him to Alter Defective Ball
lots-Policy Holders Writ
ing Initiated
BY Associated Press.

by Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May &C. f. Caring
ton, a former employe of the Interna-
tional Policy Holders committee tes-
titled in police court today that George
r. r-rugham, manager for the COM
pany, instructed him and other en-
ployes to alter defective ballots sent to
them in connection with the election of
directors of the New York Life Insur-
ance company.
He declared also that Scrugham had
not forwarded to the New York Life
tellers so-called administration bal
lots" which fell into the hands of the
policy holders committee.
"Scrugham told me that when any of
the administration ballots fell into my
hands there was no need of sending
them to the company" testified Carri-
gan. land he added jocularly that
might send them upstairs to him, as he
had some chloroform for them"
Carrington's testimony was given
after he had been promised by Assist
ant Attorney Smith that anything he
testified to would not be used against
him.
Darlington said that acting upon in
structions from Scrugham, he told the
clerks to make as close a copy of the
policy holders handwriting as possi-
BILE. Later. when the time was growing
short, he was told to instruct the girls
not to take any great care in this re-
spect. Darlington said that when he
went to the polls as a policy holders
committee watcher he had instructions
from Scrugham to challenge all admin
istration ballots and to let all commit
tee ballots pass.

KANSAS CITY. Mo-, May 9.-Search

building at Ninth and Locust streets,
destroyed by fire yesterday. One body
at least is known to be in the debris,
that of Miss Aurora Wittbert. an ar
tist, and it is believed that many 9TH
ers may be found.
The fire is still smouldering this
morning and it will be late in the day
before a thorough search can be made.
The known dead now number two
Miss Wittbert and Prof. George De
Mare.
1t is believed that all of the injured
will recover. The most seriously hurt
is Alexandria Blumberg, the Russian

men have been passed, when the body
of, talesmen pass to the defense for ex-
animation.
The state passed twelve men early this
forenoon and the general examination is
in the hands of the defense. OF the
eleven men remaining in the body at
the close of todays session only three
have been passed by both sides. They
have not been finally accepted and
sworn and are still subject to per-
emptory challenge.
They are a. L. Ewing, carpenter
and veteran of the Civil War; William
Van Orsdale, a grocer of Boise, and
Samuel d. Gilman, a farmer who lives
in the country ten miles from Boise.
Gilman served in the Philippines with
the Idaho volunteers. Under the law as
recently amended each side has ten per-
emptory challenges.
Judge Wood announced that he in
tended to give both sides wide latitude
in the examination of talesmen. He
also showed a willingness to grant chal-
lenges where there seemed any reason
able objection to the attitude of the
talesmen, and in the one contest of the
day he ruled with the defense, which
had challenged the talesman and was
resisted by the state.
The state today filed a supplementary
list of 151 witnesses, who are to be called
to testify against Haywood, Meyer or
Pettibone, and Mr.. Hawley announced
that additional names would be filed
later.
The list includes former Governor
Peabody of Colorado, and his daughter,
Miss Cora Peabody; Charles Sweeney,
mine owner of Spokane; Detective
James Mcfarland, Steve Adams. Mrs.
Steve Adams, Bulkeley Wells, adjutart

CORNELIUS FACES
CONTEMPT PROCEEDINGS
BY Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 9.-Richard
Cornelius, president, and James Bowl
ing, secretary of the Street Car Mems
union, were cited by Judge Hebbard
today to appear before him at 10 o'clock
ON the morning of May 16, to show
cause why they should not be punished
for contempt of court in failing to re-
store George Dingwell, an expelled
member, to his former standing in the
union.
The affidavit upon which the order
was issued was sworn to by A. L. We'll,
attorney for Dingwell, who charges
that these two officers are guilty OF
contempt in failing to notify the mem
bers of the writ of mandate issued by
Judge Hebbard.
Dingwell was expelled from the
union in December, 1902 The charges
against him were plots to disrupt the
organization. He carried the case to
the courts and was granted writ of
mandate.
