EBERHARD PLEADS GUILTY.
Hackcnsack Youth Who Killed His
Aunt Gets 80 lears.

Hackensack, N. j., Sept. 23.-Au-
gust Eberhard, on trial here for the
murder of his aunt, Mrs. Ottilie Eber-
hard, to-day changed his plea to
guilty and was sentenced to serve 80
years in the State prison.
After a conference between the
prosecutor and counsel for Eberhard
1t was stated to the court to-day that
the prisoner had agreed to plead nom
vult. The prisoners counsel said
Eberhard's grandfather died in an
insane asylum, that his sister now Is
in an institution for the insane and
that young man himself had been act
ing strangely for some time prior to
the crime. Judge Parker said the
very fact that Eberhard had agreed
to change his plea proved that his
mental arrangement was not severe
enough to absolve him from punish
ment. There remained nothing for
the court to DO, he said, but to i'm
pose sentence Immediately. Eber-
hard heard the sentence without a
tremor.

THE TUBERCULOSIS CONGRESS.
1t Is the Greatest Anti-Tuberculosis
Movement Ever Begun.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 21.-For
the next three weeks the national
capital will be the scene of such a
crusade as, perhaps, never before has
been witnessed against humanity's
worst common foe-the white plague.
1t will be an educational campaign,
worldwide In Its scope, the ultimate
object Of which is to eradicate, IL
possible, from the ends of the earth
disease which, statistical experts
declare, cuts short the lives Of from
one-tenth to one-eighth of the CIV
ilized population. Such distinguish
ed foreigners as Drs. Robert Koch, of
Berlin; Bang, of Copenhagen; A.

dolid, Spain; T. lshigami, of Osaka,
Japan, and noted American doctors
and scientists and others who have
devoted their lives in an effort to
solve this problem, will actively par
ticipate. s.
The campaign will be carried on
by the coming International Con-
gress on tuberculosis in It's sixth an
nual session, which will meet In the
United States for the first time, at
the new Natioal Museum, in this city
This congress, which might fittingly
be called real worlds congress on
tuberculosis, will mark an epoch in
the anti-tuberculosis mo- ,ment in
this country.
The initial step will be taken to-
morrow night, when there will be
public opening at the new National
Museum, in connection with the con-
gress, with tuberculosis exposition.
1t will be one Of the largest, the most
important, and in every way the most
comprehensive exhibit ever assem-
bled, and 1t will be illustrative Of
what is being done throughout the
world in the fight against tuberculo-
sis.
While the display is connected
With the congress, 1t Is not so closely
related as to be taken as the official
opening Of the congress. That i'm
portant event will occur one week

cholera. In this city increased to-day,
but the disease has invaded the aris-
tocratic precincts Of st. Petersburg.
1t has even reached the Winter Pal
ace, one case having been discovered
In the servants quarters of the pal
ace, in which extensive preparations
are going on, in the expectation that
the Emperor and Empress will spend
part of the coming season in the capt.

ed in the palace of Grand Duke Mich

ace, the palace of Prince Alexander
Oldenburg, cousin of the Emperor,
and the Imperial Opera House.
A number Of diplomats and promi-
nent society people have hurried their
departure abroad, but the exodus has
been checked to a considerable ex-
tent by the prospect OF being held in
quarantine at the frontier.
In order to test the efficiency of
vaccination in cholera cases several

University voluntarily permitted
themselves to be vaccinated, after
which they drank solution of chol-
era germs. "

Should Politicians Bathe :?
(Anderson Mail.)

Mr.. Cansler, Of Tirzah, was can
didate for Railroad Commissioner
two years ago, and several times be-
fore that, If we remember correctly.
In filing his expense account two
years ago he put In an item for "one
bath, 25 cents" He was defeated by
several thousand votes. This year he
was candidate again, and in his ex-
pense account he put in an item for
mine baths at 25 cents each, $2.25."
And he was defeated by only several
hundred votes. 1t would appear that
Mr.. Cansler has made some progress
toward cleanliness in politics, and
that the people have been duly ap-
preciative, 1t may be argued that
If Mr.. Cansler had taken just a few
more baths he would have been elect
ed. But before committing yourself
to that theory it would be we'll to re-
member that the expense of Mr..
Caughman, who was elected, did not
show that he took any baths at all.
or course Mr.. Caughman may have
taken bath every week, or every
day, during the campaign, but he
cannot prove 1t by the offlcial record,
his expense account, and therein Mr..
Cansler has the advantage over him.
The record offered by Mr.. Cansler Of
fers wide field for comparisons and
speculations. Does it pay for poll
tician to battle or not?

WILL HAVE HrsaEN ELECTORS.
"Mat' Tighe inSState to Select Presi-
Dental Electors.

columbia Cor. News and Courier.)
The Independence party, better
known as the Hearst party, will put
out an electoral ticket in South Caro-
lima.
This announcement may not create
any great political excitement, but
nevertheless the announcement is
made, and 1t may be interesting, even
II not exciting. Matthew F. Tighe,
formerly head of the Columbia Bu-
reau of the News and Courier, was
in the city to-day. He is now head
0i the Hearst newspaper syndicate
bureau in the National Capital, and
because of his familiarity with men
and. conditions in this State has been
sent to South Carolina for the pur-
pose of opening up the Independence
party campaign. Mr.. Tighe has been
In Greenyille, where Mr.. Ihmsen was
with him; but he is alone here on
his political mission and Mr.. Ihmsen
Is In Florida Mr.. Tighe went to
Charleston tonight, and there may
be some field for his efforts in Char
lesion, where 1t is said to be a diff
cult job to keep alive the fires of
true Democracy"
1t may not be a matter of great
difficulty to put out an electoral ticket
in this State. All that you have to
do Is to get nine qualified electors
who do not hold office Of any kind;
they cannot even be notaries public
or directors in national bank, and
1t is not hard to find nine men who
are neither, though it may be harder
to find nine men who would not like
to be both. At any rate, that is all
that has to be done. Under the laws
of this State 1t is not even necessary
to call convention Of the party
the electoral ticket can be Just put
out just so, and Mr.. Tighe says it
will be done. 1t is not yet deter
mined who will compose the ticket
and 1t does not yet appear that there
will be any unseemly scramble to get
4 place thereon.
Mr.. Tighe does not seem very
hopeful Of carrying South Carolina
for Hisgen and Graves, although Col.
Graves was born and educated in
this State. In fact, he comedies this
State to Bryan and Kern. Hisgen and
Graves, it may be we'll to state, are
the nominees Of the Hearst party for
President and Vice President respec-
lively.
The Independence party has a ma
tional committeeman in this State.
He lives in Fort Mill, York county,
but he is all the organization that is
at this time apparent. Col. ]. Con-
way Darlington was at one time Of
cially connected with the organiza-
ton, but later resigned, declining to
desert the good old Democratic party,
which is now as ever strong in Lau-
rehs county.

THEY WANT HASKELL BOUNCED.
Democratic Committeeman Ready to
Use Influence Against Him.

#
New York, Sept. 23.-It became
known at Democratic headquarters
tonight that several national COM
mitteemen are preparing to use every
influence to bring about the removal
of Governor Chas. N. Haskell from
the office of treasurer OF the national
committee. - ~
This is the result of the publica-
ton of charges that Mr.. Haskell, as
Governor Of Oklahoma, declined to
permit the State to prosecute the
Prairie OIL Company, subsidiary
company of the Standard OIL Com
pany.
Charges that Governor Haskell had
been identified with several railroad
promotions in this city, which are
said to have been unfortunate in
the matter of contamination, are
said tonight to have also tended to
increase the feelings of the national
committeeman that the time has
come for Haskell to resign from the
committee or be removed. National
Chairman Mack is taking no action
In the matter at present, nor would
he state tonight what the outcome
might be with reference to the Has
kell matter, though his attitude Is
known to be such as to oppose the
continuance on the committee Of any
man whose affiliations are proved to
be with the corporations, which are
opposed by Bryan.
Haskell Has Resigned. ..
Washington, Sept. 23.-The resig-
nation Of Governor Charles H. Has
kell rs treasurer of the Democratic
campaign committee is already in
the hands Of the Democratic National
Committee, and has been since he
left Chicago several days ago for Ok
lahoma. 1t is said on Democratic
authority here that as early as the
Denver convention y certain Demo-
cratic leaders of national reputation
learned that Governor Haskell had
figured In certain corporation mat
ters in the past, which made it in
consistent for him to appear as one
Of the leaders in an anti-corporation
campaign.
These men also understood that
Governor Haskell had been very close
to the Standard Oil Company, and
while he lived in Ohio was business
associate Of Senator Brice and rail-
road promoter in Ohio and New
York. The Democratic leaders were
somewhat concerned, therefore, when
Mr.. Bryan selected him for treasurer
OF the campaign committee.
At the first suggestion from Mr..
Hearst Of the relations of Haskell to
the Standard Oil Company the lead
ers Of the Democracy told Mr.. Bryan
that he would find it hard to defend
his treasurer, and at the same time
Governor Haskell was advised to
place his resignation at the disposal
Of the national committee to meet
any contingency that might arise. 1t
Is the understanding of men here
who are familiar with the facts that
Governor Haskell left for his home
In Oklahoma with no intention of
returning to his duties as treasurer.
Upon the known facts regarding
the Haskell resignation is based the
interesting theory that Mr.. Bryan
will, as soon as he has read Presi-
dent Roosevelt's letter addressed to
him to-day, announce Mr.. Haskell's
withdrawal in a way to derive as
much political advantage as possible
from situation which was forced
upon him.
