Columbia, S. c., May 20, 1907.
Editor Herald and News,
Newberry, S. G.
Dear Sir:
My attention has been called to an
article in your paper of May IA,
inst. headed "Building Material"
and signed "A Builder" This article
seems to lay great stress on the i'm
perfect fire proof quality of concrete
as building material. It is entirely
different from the reports which I
have on file in my Office of Baltimore
fire, Jacksonville, and Los Angles.
CAL, fire. These reports show that
concrete buildings stood the test of
the extreme heat; superior to ordi-
nary kiln brick.
deem it unnecessary to go fur
ther into this matter, except to say
that I was very glad to learn, upon
investigation, that the article refer
red to was sent to you by the Geor-
gia-Carolina Brick Co., Of Augusta,
Ga, for publication, they having in
serted the same over the word ga
Builder" as the author Of the pub
ication.
Now, I think that your readers
should be informed OF the fact that
these brick people could not afford
to bring out a publication Of Etis
kind signed by themselves, therefore
they thought best to set up in front
Of them as breast work GA Builder"
and hide themselves under bushel.
L notice that they insinuate that your
good people may be mislead in using
concrete as a building material. I
know Of nothing that could be any
more misleading than for brick
concern, so we'll established as these
people referred to, to undertake to
publish such communication and
|attempt to hide themselves behind
1.-THE name of A Builder.
IA I would like to get one Of the PAM
Pphlets referred to by the "a Build
Fer," so that T could investigate to
see If it also was not compiled by
brick manufacturer who is unable
to find sale for his brick.
Yours very truly,
D. g. Zeigler,
Consulting architect.

 er's Guest. HEAVY LOSS TO
 A. w. RANNEY Tools and Writings of Scier- tific Forester as We'll
 as Launch Are
 Lost.

Norwich, Aug. 22,-By an explosion, supposed to be caused by gasolene fumes ignited by the cabin light, the power boat Forester of New Haven, owned by A. w. Ranney of that city, who has been cruising with the boat for the past seven weeks, was burned and sunk on the Thames river at Fort Point about I o'clock tonight. Har- sal Smith of Boston guest of the owner, was painfully but not serious Iy burned about the face and was cut on the face and hands. He jumped overheard and was rescued almost ex- hausted by Charles w. Burns of New Haven, the sailing master.
 Daniel Duffy of Boston, one of the crew, was slightly burned about the face, but the others of the five on board, including the owner and John Flaherty of the crew, were not hurt. They were rescued by the tug Vel come and brought to this city on a passing launch.
 MT Ranney is a scientific forester Yale School of Forestry, 1901. He es- t'mates his loss at $6,O00 on the launch and several hundred dollars in tools and writings upon forestry topics. All on board saved only the clothes in which they were dressed.

UNION ENDORSES STRIKE IRON MOULDERS MEET No Action At Barnum's
 Pending Return Of O'Leary.

The regular bi-weekly meeting of the New Haven local, Iron Moulders' union, was held last night in Trades Council hall, and the strike for better wages on the part of the employees at the McLagon foundry was endorsed The local union will assist the em- ployes at McLagon's financially during the time that they are away from their work.
 Following the meeting of the union, the striking employees at Mt. Lagons held meeting and discussed plans of action to be pursued toward a settle ment but nothing def.itely was decid- cd upon pending the arrival from New ork of Third Vice President O'Leary, who was here at the time the strike was called.
 The employees of the Barnum foun- dry, who asked for more pay, have not struck and they will not before MT. O'Leary returns. Hugh Donnelly the deputy for New England, does not think a strike at Barnums will be necessary for the employees get their increase in wage.
 Up to the present time the matter of recognizing the union has not entered into the matter. MT. Farnsworth, the president of the McLagon company, was not asked to recognize the union, nor were the officials at the Barnum foundry.

Car Running in Opposite Direction
 Breaks Yale Bowling Masters Arm.
 Paolo Sahino, who has had charge of the bowling alleys at the Yale gym nasium ever since they were installed and who has been mascot for more that one Yale team, yesterday left the hospital after five weeks confine ment, and is still carrying his left arm in sling as a result of a very peculiar accident He was riding up from Savin Rock on a trolley car one night and near Congress avenue reached out his left hand to fleck the ashes off his cigar A car coming from the oppo- site direction struck his hand, which was projecting about seven inches from the guard rail, and broke his wrist and several other bones in his arm completely crushing his hand.
 After he was taken to the hospital he communicated with the Connecti- cut company and asked that his bills during his illness be paid. and the com pany refused to pay them, saying that the accident was due to his own care- lessness. Dr. William O. Anderson, who is at the head of the Yale gymna- sium, then took the matter to the rail- roads authorities without satisfactory results. Sabino will probably retain counsel and bring suit, as soon as Dr. Anderson arrives home from his west ern trip. Sabino lives at 100 St. John street.

ARTIST STORY
 IS A SUICIDE Brother of Emma Eames' Divorced Husband Shoots Himself Through
 Head. MEMBER OF MANY
 PROMINENT CLUBS Tragedy Occurs at Beauti- Summer Home-0nly Servants in the
 House.

New York, Aug 22.-Marion Story, the artist, and brother Of Julian P. Story, the we'll known artist, who was divorced by Mime. Emma Flames, com mitted suicide at his home, Brook Farm, about one mile from Portches- ter, tonight, by shooting himself through the head The only other per son in the house at the time were hls servants. Mrs, Story, who had not liv- ed with her husband for about year, is said to be somewhere in the south.
 In the absence tonight of any mem Der of the Story family there could not be obtained any authoritative statement as to what prompted Mr. Story to end his life, Those persons, however, who remember the troubles through which he had been in the last year and half, which included heavy losses in the stock market, his com mitment to the Bloomingdale asylum and his domestic infelicities, attribute his act to these. He returned short time ago from Europe to his beautiful country place, Brook Farm, one of the finest estates in Westchester county, but his friends observed no improve ment in his melancholy tendency.
 Marion Story was committed to Bloomingdale asylum in April, 1906, by Judge Platt, of Westchester coun- ty, Though his mental alteration was said to be only temporary and Mir. Story was released within a year from the institution, his friends say that he never again acted quite like himself.
 In the last year MT. Story had oc- cupied himself only in Wall street Ispeculations which, 1t is said. were un- fortunate. His losses were not great enough to impair his fortune to any extent for he was to possess several million dollars. but his reverses did operate on his susceptible mind
 MT. Story was an enthusiastic sports man, and up to almost the end he con- tinued his interest in horse flesh, yachting and golf. He had for several years been one of the principal exhib- itors at the Westchester horse show. He was also a member of the follow ing clubs New York Yach, American Yacht Westchester Country, Vest chester Hunt Apawamis Golf, Rac- quet, Union and Harvard

WANT BIG VOTE OUT West Orange Charter Com mittee in Session on
 Voting Plans. MEETING ENTHUSIASTIC While Members Favor Char ter They Want Voters
 at the Polls.
MEETINGENTHUsIASTIC

An enthusiastic pro-charter meeting was held by the members of the com mittee that has in charge the pre- senting to the citizens of Orange of the new city charter in the West Haven town hall. A session lasting about an hour was held at which 1t was decided to work to bring out as large a vote as possible on the matter in order that the expression of opinion thus made may be representative of the majority of voters. An effort will be made to get out the voters as the committee does not desire to press the charter unless the people really want it, and show it by the vote.
 The meeting last night was attend ed by about seventy-flve members and was unanimous in favor of the charter. Attorney Henry A. L. Hall was chair man of the session. Among the citizens who spoke at the meeting last night in behalf of the adoption of the charter were Edward Gagel, chief engineer of the New Haven road: Dr. J. T. Bar nett, Clarence L. Clark, Dennis A. Kimberly, James B. Smith, c. D Hall, Cyrus W. Futile, s. F. Butterf1eld, s. L. Morse, Arthur A. Benhan, Walter A. Main, John Wilkinson and many others.
 The voting will take place on Thurs day, September 5, and the polls will be open from in the morning until in the afternoon.

SECRETARY TAFT
 ON RAGE QUESTION south's, Lack of Represen- tation in Nations Coun-
 cils- Due Only to Single Issue.
SHOULD LONG AGO
 HAVE BEEN REMOVED
Convinced That the Race Problem is Gradually Working Itself
 Out.

Lexington Ky, Aug. 22.-secretary of War Taft to-day opened the republi- can state campaign win a discussion Of the race problem general political issues from the southern standpoint, and an appeal to Kentuckians to aid the republican party in support of those principles. Calling attention to what he called the souths lack of rep .resentation in the councils of. the na- tion, he declared that this was true because one single issue has made 1t the perpetual tail of the democratic party so that, however small the north ern head, 1t wags that tail. The south has permitted the shadow of an issue, that circumstances ought long ago to have removed to bind it to the demo- cratic party, no matter what princi- pies or candidates that party adopts"
 He called attention to the prosperity of Kentuckys industries and agricul- ture, and expressed the belief that many Kentucklans who favored a pro- tective tariff had blindly voted the democratic ticket because of feeling on the race issue.
 Then, taking up the race question, he said:
 'I know that the discussion by a northern man of the race question is apt to arouse from the southern dem- ocrats the objection that he does not understand the question; that he does not know the difficulties of 1t and that if he cannot take it up with sympathy, with the attitude of the white man of the south, he had better not take it up all On the other hand, he is liable to encounter the criticism of the colored man who, with a natural sensitiveness, remembering the wrongs and oppres- sions to which their rase has been
