Clears Up Mystery Ct Sub
Treasury.

Chicago.-The mystery surrounding
the disappearance of S173, 900 from the
Chicago sub-treasury, and which caus-
ed Chief Wilkie, of the Secret Service,
to come to Chicago and take personal
charge of the case, is said to be clear
ed up in the report which Captain
Porter sent to Washington today. The
report is said not only to contain a
solution of the "mystery," but to give
the names CT the men implicated in
the theft.
All OF this except the sending Of the
report, Captain Porter denies. He
asserts that all theories have been ex-
ploded, and that no new word has
been received.
Further shortages have been found
in the affairs of the sub-treasury, says
Mr.. Bantz, and Asserting Teller Fitz-
gerald is still liable, technically, for
the money which disappeared from
his cage. 1t is not asserted, however,
that he will be 80 held.

Lexington County Teachers
Association.


TIE association held its regular
meeting in the Institute building
March 9, 1907. The morning being
fine-zest to the occasion was lent.
This proved a very pleasant and
profitable meeting. Our president,
Mr.. J. F. Kyzer, presided over meet
ing. Prayer was offered by Rev. A.
S. Leslie.
The first speaker on the program
was Rev. A. S. Leslie, who gave a
delightful address, the subject being:
'Parents and Teachers Influence
Morally on the Student The rela-
tionships of teacher and minister were
closely traced by him. The elastic
form of the word "Student'' was
clearly drawn. Then in beautifully
touching manner the mother impress
was portrayed. Of this several were
mentioned. Of these mentioned was
the mother of the Hebrew law giver
of the old testament dispensation,
s'Moses." Also the mother of the
noble Wesleys. This good mother
left Christian impress with her chill
dren of whom II were reared from 19.
Close attention of those present was
called to the unconscious influences
that guide the mind of the child.
Here the teacher, like the mother,
wieids her impress either for good or
evil. Instances of noble type of man
were cited as coming from our church
colleges, due to noble Christian i'm
pressions imprinted by college presi-
dents and instructors. These graces
are absorbed by the student.
Prof. Hare, the next on the pro-
gram, gave an interesting address on
the s'Need of the Dictionary in the
Common School," He enumerated
the faculties developed by careful
and systematic use of the dictionary.
''The Present Adoption of Text
Books'' called forth remarks and crit
icisms from the teachers present. Oc-
casionally we hope to have these books
discussed by the members of the asso-
citation. Secretary.

Walton Not Man Seen With

Columbia, March 15.-The mystery
surrounding the holdup and murder Of
Mr.. Greene and the killing of Mar
shall is as deep as ever, with less
hope now that it will be solved per-
haps, than ever before.
The inquest was reopened today by
the coroner, for the purpose of trying
to identify Walton, the man arrested
yesterday, as the stranger who was
seen in company with Marshall. This
failed entirely. Walton was not iden-
titled. Beyond this fact there was
practically nothing developed at to-
