 Won The Prize. Charlotte Observer. The Montgomery Advertiser wins the prize offered by The Observer for the first ap- proxmately correct answer to the question: What is the name of the Junior Senator from south Carolina?" There were many unsuccc, ufuI competitors. most of them holding to the prevailing view that no such Individual exists. The Advertiser however, with it's usual thirst for information. did not stop short Of recourse to the CongreS- sional Directory, by which means it found that Senator Tilman has colleague and that his name is Asbury C. Latimer. Our congratulations,

If there Is any duty which is spe- cially legislative, 1t Is that of provid- ing for the times and terms of the va- rfous courts of the State. Certainly, the Senate and House of Representa- lives ought to be able to discharge such a duty, yet there is bill pending which provides for a commission to be appointed by the Governor to do this work and submit it to the Legislature. It looks as if this is to be a personal and commission government. When this court commissions report comes back to the Legislature. 1t will have to be carefully considered as if 1t had been originally prepared by a Senator or Representative, or joint committee. and to an outsider the proposition looks like trifiing with very grave matter.

ANOTHER OF THEM.

We may expect an eruption in Vir- ginia literary circles, if not more than one, all due to the claim that the Pow hatan Pocahontas was not the only one The claim is that a man up in Maine has found some ancient records which show that there was a romantic, but sad story connected with Captain John Smiths exploration of the Ken nebec region in 1914. The tale runs that a band of Indians. bent on put ting Smith and his men out of the way, pursued and came up with them just as they were encamping for the night. Just here is where the romance comes in It seems that a young Indian girl named Sebois had suffered Smith to make a mash on her, and, learning of the designs of the Indians, she hurried on before the attacking party and was just in time to throw, herself in front of John when the savages sent flight of arrows at the doughty captain. The sad part of the story is that while Smith was not injured, the gallant Sebois was pierced by the arrows of her people and Tell deau at the Ieet of the man she loved.
 This is the gist of the story, and, though 1t bears a strong resemblance to the other. it's sad ending makes it different. Pocahontas escaped and be- came famous, through herself and her descendants, but poor Sebois died and was forgotten, unless the alleged dis covery proves genuine and establishes the truth of the story. If it is true, this Cabassas red maiden did braved act than Pocahontas did, for the latter was doubtless aware that her father would not kill her, while Sebois had good reason to believe that her vengeful and savage people would shoot to kill. Whether there is truth in the story cor not, it is historical fact that Captain Smith went on an exploring expedition to New England In 1914, and did travel up and down the Kennebec River for considerable distance. The event may have occurred and thus Pocahontas may have had an imitator several years after her affair with John Smith. Are our Virginia contemporaries on to this story?
