COMFORTS HIS F|ANCEE
THROUGH PRISON BARS
Pretty Mamie Mitchell's
Wedding Day Has to
Be Postponed

+, A pathetic side to. the arrest of An
tonic Mancuso last Wednesday on a
charge of robbery developed yesterday,
when Mamie Mitchell. pretty young
girl. called at the city prison to see
him. She cried bitterly She clung to
Mancuso and he seemed also deeply af-
| fected. Yesterday was to have been
their wedding day, but it had to be in
definitely postponed because of his ar
rest. The girl protested that Mancuso
could not be guilty of the crime
| charged, and that when he wAs again
a free man she would gladly marry
him. The homes of both are at Precita
park.
Mancuso is accused of being one of
three men who knocked down and
robbed John Aker of the Enterprise
hotel Sixteenth and Folsom streets, of
| 500 at Twenty fourth and Folsom
streets last Monday night. Aker had
been drinking in a saloon at Twenty
| fourth and Army streets and displayed
considerable coin.
! When Aker left the saloon the saloon
keeper had John Nauer, the bar tender,
go with him to see him safely home.
Mancuso had been drinking at the bar
and followed Aker and the bar tender.
| 1t is alleged that Mancuso called two
companions and that at Twenty-fourth
and Folsom streets they confronted
Aker and the bar tender and knocked
both down. Aker was relieved of 500.
Mancuso was arrested by Detectives
Burke and Smith, and last Friday he
was tnstruced and arraigned before
Police Judge CabaniSs and the case
continued till July 5.

SAYS HUSBAND TORE OUT
HIS HAIR WHEN ANGRY
Mrs. Mary Cope, in Divorce
Complaint, Tells of a
Hot Temper

IF Frederick Cope is not yet bald
he soon will be- No other conclusion
can be drawn from a divorce complaint
filed yesterday by his wife. Mrs. Mary
Cope. He has an ungovernable temper,
she says, and often during their ten
years of married life he flew into a
rage and frightened her by pulling out
ance he upset tables and sent chairs
crashing against the wall.
One paragraph OF the complaint
reads: ''It was the common practice of
the defendant to throw articles of fur
niture around the room, to pull his hair
out and do similar acts to torture,
frighten and intimidate the plaintiff,
and she fears he may cripple her for
life or kill her"
The main allegation Of the complaint
is cruelty, but Mrs. Cope also charges
desertion. Cope is a plumber and
makes $50 a month working at his
trade. He and his wife separated a
year ago last March. They have one
child, a girl aged four years.
John r Hanniver filed a counter
complaint yesterday against his wife,
Mary, who recently sued him for di-
vorce on the ground of desertion. He
accuses her of cruelty, consisting of
verbal abuse, spending most of her time
at her mothers, while her own house
work was neglected and deceiving him
by going on trip to San Rafael after
telling him that she was going home
for the day. Hanniver also charges de-
sertion.
On March II. 1906, he gave her a
twenty dollar piece, he alleges, telling
her to pay the rent, which amounted
to $12, and keep the change for herself.
She threw the money on the floor and
called him cur and a coward. A few
days later, charges Hanniver, she col
lected her clothing, pulled the curtains
from the windows, rolled up the por-
there's and, carrying those articles in
a somewhat cumbersome bundle, dis
appeared in the direction of the open
door down at mothers.

WORKS BOARD HAS NO
MONEY FOR employees
Several Hundred Men May
Be Laid Off Until
Situation Mends

Unless President Duffey of the board
of works makes arrangements with
the supervisors finance committee to-
day or tomorrow morning for the ap-
portionment of appropriations made In
the budget for street cleaning and re-
pairing the works board will be COM
PEELED to lay off it's entire force, except
those attaches whose salaries have
been provided for under specific ap-
preparation of $176.o00.
The work of the department seems
likely to come to a standstill, as 1t
probably will be necessary to drop sew
eral hundred mechanics, street and
sewer men, janitors and others who are
rated as per diem employees until
such time as the money for the month
of July has been set aside, as was Pc
titioned for recently by the board.
Acting Mayor Gallagher said yester-
day that he would consult with Duffey
some time next week relative to the al
lowance to be made and the laying of
of the employees may be delayed until
definite conclusion has been ar
rived at
Six additional building inspectors
will assume their duties tomorrow un-
der a special appropriation made for
the purpose.
Recorder Nelson says that he will be
compelled ito lay off eight copyists un-
less the supervisors allow him more
money. Nelson declares that it is i'm
possible to run his Office with less than
3S copyists, and the regular appropria-
tion will permit of the employment of
only 80 men,

Another League Contemplated.

Georgetown loves base ball
and wanted to get into the State
leagne again this year. Finan.
cial losses last year have, how
ever, deferred those most active
in promoting the game from go
ing into the State league once
more. But Georgetown wants
base ball, and must have it. A
club is now being organized for
the purpose of entering the
league of amateurs, which will
be composed of teams from the
towns of Darlington, Florence,
Sumter, Kingstree. Cheraw and
others. Georgetown has some
excellent material, and she
aims to do some sensational
playing before the season is
much older, and leading for
the pennant from the start off.
The lovers of good ball will
contribute literally towards the
of the home team, and
will be easy on the
boys who wish to get off in Or
Ter to uphold the honor Of old
Georgetown on the diamond.
As a matter of fact it is reason
able to suppose that the local
men will induce more interest
md engender more enthusiasm
lmong the citizens, especially
he fair ones, than hired men.
The locals will receive no COM
oeusation for their work

Newspaper Advertising.

It has come to be recognized
as a fact that the merchant who
does the best business and en-
joys the most prosperity is the
one who does the most and best
newspaper advertising. 1t
stands to reason that this is so.
1t is the logical conclusion OF an
admission that it pays TO adver-
tise. AS providing that news
paper advertising pays, We find
in an exchange a couple Of Incl
dents related by W 4 Summers,
a shoe dealer of Hartford, Conn.
The incidents, which are from
his own experience, Mr. Sum-
mers referred to an address be
fore the Associated Retail Shoe
dealers of New England in ses-
sion in Boston.
About three years ago one Of
his sales-girls made abelt Of shoe
strings. The belt was novel
ty and quite attractive, and Mr.
Summers had her make up a
dozen or so with an idea of sell
ing them. He put a line or two
in his ads. calling attention to
them, with what result he told
in the following words:
"The first dozen were sold the
following day, and in the next
three months We sold between
10000 and $1,000 of these belts
at a good profit. 1t also gave
our sales-girls an opportunity OF
making quite a little pin money
after hours. This was accom-
plished just through newspaper
Advertising"
Most shoe dealers now hand
lie some make of arch supports.
Mr. Summers said his attention
was first called to arch supports
through an advertisement in a
trade journal. He ordered few
pairs and had one of his clerks
familiarize himself with their
virtues, proper fitting, ETC., and
advertise them. The ads. were
written, of course, so as to ap'
peal to persons suffering from
fallen insteps, broken arches
etc. 1t was only day or two
before inquiries began to be
made concerning them, and be-
fore long he was selling scores
! of instep supporters. In many
cases also instep support was
the cause of selling pair OF
shoes-where the customer was
convinced that the kind of shoe
he CT she was wearing was not
the proper sort to obtai n the
best results. This all came
through newspaper advertising,
without which no retail busi-
ness can be made the great est

Is Shaw Right?

As was To be expected from a man
who was until very recently Secre-
tary of the Treasury of the United
States, leslie NJ Shaw has had his
little say as to the recent unpleas-
ant stock market flurries;
"The recent panie-the first since
1901-was not an unmixed evil he
observes. We had little more
freight than the roads could salts
factorilv handle; little more labor
than laborers. a little more com
merce than money. and this has con
1inued until everybody has become
Independents and living expenses
have advanced a little too high. Liv-
ing expenses are never cheap except
in periods of Industrial stagnation.
There is a reasonable limit, however,
10 all good things. and that limit
has been a little more than reached.
A slight curtailment every where
viii us good"
What does the distinguished inan-
cier mean by saying "a slight cur
tailment viii do as good?' Who are
Gus ." Very likely the late squeez-
ing down of stock values viii do the
market good, and those who specu-
late in securities. But are the living
expenses he mentions, the costs Of
things needful TO the whole people,

That does not Immediately appear,
and until il does even Mr.. Shaw viii
scarcely be able to convince the
country that there was very much
virtue in the slumps of last month.

exactly be legislated into people,
there is no doubt that good deal of
eussedness can be Iegislated out of
them. Human nature can't be
changed, perhaps; but some of its
meanest manifestations can be pre-
vented.
Before people get frightened at
the speeter OF too much legislation,
let them learn of the accounting
laws, the company laws, the eorpor-
alton supervision, of other and older
countries. Less insularity, more
willingness to learn from other ma
tons experience, more realization
that in these matters we are just
starting on a road that European
countries have been travelling for
decades, would be extremely sensi-
bic and helpful just now. Every
body knows that we are going 10
travel over the road; why not look
up the charts that other mariners
have made, and benefit by their ex-
Berience?
