Whisky and Pistols Make Two Graves,

Columbia, S. C., Dec % "A
telephone message from Karshaw
this afternoon says that Bar-
ry Mobley, the only survivor Of a
terrible pistol battle in Wilson's
barber shop at Kershaw Saturday
night between three prominent
young men of that town, is re-
covering nicely from three
wounds. The otherl two partici-
pants we're Thomas L. Clyburn
and his first cousin, Steve WEIGH
Ciyburn was acting as peacema-
ker, both being instantly killed.
Welsh was buried this morning
at Kershaw and Clyburn this af-
ternoon near his old home SIX
miles from Kershaw. Clyburn's
mother was in Charlotte, n. G,
at the time of the tragedy. The
phone message says the fact that
the young men concerned were all
armed is uudoubtedly..the cause Of
the double tragedy. Whiskey play
ed it's part and the irritation ELI
gendered by a previous quarrel
had something to do with it; but
had the ever-ready pistol not been
at hand, the affair would have
been nothing more than a harm
less, if somewhat exciting, fistic
encounter, filling no graves and
leaving few hard feelings.-Char-
Iotte Observer.

 Wayne the Wizard is the vaudeville feature at the Iris this week. A big crowd witnessed both performances last night and every one was mystified by his great trunk mystery. Two men from the audience put his assistant in a sack and seal it, then place the sack in a trunk which has been examined. The trunk is then placed in the cabinet and in one second the lady steps from the cabinet and asks the committee to open the trunk, and to the surprise of everyone Wayne is found secured in the sack where the lady had been tied by the committee. This is wonderful trick, considering the remarkably short time required to make the change.
 The moving picture entitled "Are You an Elk?" is very funny one, showing the initiation of new member of the lodge. "The Romance of a Singer" is a very pretty moving pie ture.
 Billy Cummings has two good illus trated songs. His singing of "You Splash Me and l Il Splash You'' makes hit with the audience.

NONEY IN TRANSMISSION Is
 NOT A MEDIUM IF DISEASE

eipally by reliable statistics and the re. suits of practical experience.
 "Whoever may be inclined to inves. tigate this subject in reasonable way and will visit the treasury department at Washington, where an enormous amount of old and filthy paper money IS being constantly handled and re. handled, or will seek information from bank officials, will find that those who are connected with this work do not | contract infectious diseases any oftener than anyone else.
 There IS no reason why persons thus employed may not contract infectious disease, because they are subjected to the same outside exposure that others are, but this furnishes no proof that money is the medium of transmission. It Is rather to be regarded as a coin cldence there is probably no doubt that in rare instances money, like other things, may act as means of trans hitting disease, but it is so uncommon that We must not give it undue con sideration, for there are so many other considerations with which we must deal in protecting the public health that constitute a real menace that we should rather devote our energies to these than to conditions which are based on theory. The fear that money transmits disease is, l am quite sure, largely due to the fact that it is frequently old and filthy. While this is unpleasant in many ways, it does not indicate the presence of pathogenic organisms-that is, the germs which transmit infectious dis ease. v

 Dr. A. II. Doty, health officer of thi, ,ort, who for years has made study ot Infectious diseases, and especially tho rsdium of their transmission, does not ,ree with the theorists, who contend b,t money is a transmitter of disease
 Dr. Doty said yesterday that, while neurological examinations were pre-. ,srtei to show that different forms of btteria were found on money, practical and careful observation had proved that infection was caused and epidemics ,sre spread in nearly all instances by ,4rsoual contact with infected persons, and more especially with ambulant a,es, rather than through the handling ,i money and clothing.
 Concerning the current agitation on money as an agent of disease, Dr. Doty aii:
 aThn theory that money acts as a rsiium of infection a plausible one, nricularly as it deals with an agent shich is being constantly transmitted hOm one person to another and among in classes of people. Clothing, rags, rsrehaudise, cargoes of vessels etc, are i,1 regarded as means by which dis s,e is commonly transmitted.
 'This belief is popular because it of srs an explanation for outbreaks of in- bttious disease the origin of which is aknOwn. Modern sanitation, however, 5ss not regard as valuable theories rheh are unsupported by fact or prac- t,al experience. The theory that money ais as a medium of infection carries 5th it no satisfactory or even reason ge proof It is true that from time to inc the results of meteorological exam nations are presented to show that diff trent forms of bacteria are found on ,5ley. No one who is familiar with ss subject doubts this, but the same ,ganisms may at almost any time be and on our hands.

AFTER OFFICIAL SCALP OF SUPER

PRESIDENT OF TEMPE NORMAL IS TRYING TO GET TERRITORIAL HEAD OF SCHOOLS TIRED--s MERELY CRITICIZED.

When all the rest of the people oi Arizona are busy forgetting all but tn, pleasant events of the last week, tn, teachers of the territory are quietly dis cussing resolutions condemning Super intendent of Public Instruction Long which were introduced last Friday al the session of the Arizona Teachers as sociation, says a Phoenix paper.
 President Matthews of the Tempe Normal managed to get the resolutions carried over as unfinished business un. til the next annual session of the asso- citation, when they will again rise to be fought out among the teachers.
 Professor Stilwell, principal of the Phoenix schools, introduced the resolu- tions. Asked about the matter today, he stated that the resolutions were pre- sented to him at the request of large number of teachers, some twenty of whom held conference and decided to take the step,
 Superintendent Long is made the sub lect of an attack that amounts to noth- ing less than request to Governor kib- bey that he remove the superintendent of public instruction because of his failure to reeiprocate with the teachers in their association.
 When the resolutions were introduced they met with applause. After mo tion had been made to adopt the resolu- tions, and discussed, another was made to lay them on the table. This was lost as was a motion to close the debate.
 At this point someone suggested that it might be embarrassing for the presi- dent and secretary of the association to sign the resolutions because of their official relations to Superintendent Long. So strong an impression did this sug-
