whispering in patient Counsel Pea body's ear.
 Evelyn Thaw was coughing that deep seated, hacking cough of hers as she entered the side door just as her husband came in at the back. It is q cough that brings an angry flush into her cheeks. and the man who hears If fiinches involuntarily, but Harry Thaw did not turn his head to where she sat with Josiah Thaw. his half-brother. until he had reached his place beside his lawyers. Then he nodded and smiled in the direction of the slim, blue clad figure with the big violet crown hat above 1t.
 Edna Goodrich to "Tell All"
 Edna Goodrich, Nat Goodwin's lead ing lady, is going to be witness for the defense in Harry Thaw's trial, however unwilling she may be to play such role. After several attempts William Moore of Lawyer Peabody's office served subpoena on the actress in her dressing room at the Grand Opera House. She accepted the serv- ice without any row.
 Mir Moore went to the stage door of the theater and sent sis card to the star Miss Goodrich knew Mir. Moore, and she must have known what his purpose was. Nevertheless word came out that he was to be admitted. He found Miss Goodrich in her dressing room with her mother. Mrs. King.
 ''I have this paper for you" said Mir Moore.
 q think I know what 1t is," said Miss Goodrich as she glanced at the phrasing of the formal notice 'l don't care to be drawn into this thing, but If I have to go to court will willingly tell all l know about White"
 District Attorney Jerome on hearing of this had her served 10 appear as a witness for the prosecution as well.
 Figures In Swing Story.
 Dan O'Reilly of the counsel for the defense was accordingly highly elated as he came into court for the fifth day of jury getting.
 "I saw Miss Goodrich after her per. formance." said 0'Reilly. and she tells me she will testify willingly"
 The appearance of beautiful Edna Goodrich on the witness stand will provide the second trial with a thrill which the first one lacked. She and Evelyn Nesbit were chorus girls to- gether in the first "'Florodora" com pany at the Casino. According to tho story of Mrs Thaw. it was Edna Good rich who first took her to Stanford Whites alleged house of mirrors" fin West Twenty-fourth street, where the two girls swung in a velvet swing and kicked their young heels through paper parasoIs that were hitched to the cell. ing while Stanford White looked on and applanled.

POLO NOTES.
Beaten in Boston.

Beaten in Boston.
 We may do better tonight.
 Sutherlands great goal tending did 1t.
 Saturday, Jan 11-New Haven at Providence, Waterbury at New Brit ain.
 Murray was going to be left at home, but the boys asked to have him go and the management con- sented.
 Lots of goals were scored by both teams in Pawtucket last evening, but New Haven played too speedily for the Rhode Islanders.
 When Waterbury plays in Boston again Louis Cronan will probably be taken along and the Hartford fans are going up there in a body to see the fun. They think Louis is won der, and he is.
 That preliminary game on Tues day night was the talk Of the town yesterday and last evening. If it can be repeated Managers McMahon and dlC haNN pictures taken of it.
 Opinions differ as to the attend ance at that first Boston game with Providence. One report gave 300, another 2,S00, but the Providence boys who were here Thursday said there were at least 1000 present.
 Referee Hollywood denies that he was shot out of the bunch as if from a catapault. He says his speed was accelerated because he saw several hands reaching for him and he knew that his life insurance policy had ex- pired.
 Some of the western papers are beginning to rap. and rap hard, be- cause of the tactics of the managers in splitting up the teams and loaning players to each other to help out. The last pipe has gone out and the struggle for life is getting strenuous.
 Bob Hart says they had a fine opening in Boston. We had a big crowd" said the good natured cap tain, and everybody was happy. The only trouble with the Boston rink Is  that the spectators are quite a dis tance from the playing surface. The floor is inside the bicycle track and the spectators ire on the other side of the traCS. We'll have things fixed up in a little whilo, though"
 Roaring Red Rorty tells a story about Babe Heffernan, the Pawtueket goal tender. Tn the old days Heffer- nan was tending goal for Bill Murray of Providence. Hefernan was due to report in Providence one night. but he got stranded in Salem. So he sent the following telegram to Murray: Here. can't get there Bill" Murray couldn't dope out where Hefernan was and they had an awful time trying to find him.

MURPHY IS HURT.

Tommy Murphy will not be able to meet Packey Mcfarland at Boston next Tuesday night. Murphy yester- day, while boxing with Billy Grupp, of St Louis, sustained an injury to his left knee which, his physician has de- cided, will lay him up at least three weeks.
 It will be necessary, Dr Perill says, to put the injured limb in plaster cast. This was decided upon late last night, and Johnny Oliver at once wlr- ed the facts to the Armory Athletic club, Boston, asking for postpone ment of at least three weeks.

NEW HAVEN WON.

Pawtucket, R. l., Jan. 11.-After the Boneyard outfit had practically clinched the game last night the Tigers made a great rally, scoring five goals and falling but two short of tying the score when the game closed. Heffernan had spoiled all their chances of victory by his poor goal tending, however, as he left sev- eral slip by which never should have gone in. New Haven took things easy in the last period until Paw tucket became so dangerous, and then the defense stiffened. Bone, Me Carthy and Farrell each put the ball behind Heffernan three times, and their driving and passing was the best seen here this season. Mccarthy took the whole nineteen rushes, but while the New Haven rusher was go- ing good Cunningham was handicap ped in trying to reach the spot by his ankle. Saunders stopped a hot drive from Moneys stick with his neck in the first period, but stay ed in the game and played as pluck fly as ever. Both goal tenders were good and bad in spots, most of lief fernan's work being very unreliable. Slime, local amateur, refereed the game in the absence of the league official

This world contains many evils, but |
wish to speak of only two: liquor and
tobacco. Liquor is fatal to both soul
and body when indulged in. 1t is fatal
TO the body because it wrecks the nerves,
numbs the sensibilities and degrades
and lowers that high standard of char
acter given to man by the Creator.
And when the habit of liquor drinking
is once formed oh how hard it is to give
1T up. Seldom is it ever given up till
death steps in and claims the poor vic.
tim. Liquor brings on man many dead
ly diseases which soon cause death
Physicians will tell us that great per-
centage of those in insane asylums are
there from the liquor habit. Oh, how
sad if they had only taken heed before
it was too late. Now have shown the
effects of liquor on the body. Let's see
its effects upon the immortal soul
Gods word says in I Cor, 6-19, 20
verses, "What? Know ye not that
your body is the temple of the Holy
Ghost, which is in you, which We have
of God, and ye are not your OWN"
"For ye are bought with a price
Therefore glorify God in your body and
in your spirit which are Gods" Then
again in the 10th chap. and 31st verse
will be found these words: whether,
therefore, ye eat or drink or whatsoever
yc do do all to the glory of God 1"
These words are commands from God
to men. Can we drink liquor to Gods
glory? | answer plainly no. Can we
drink liquor as a beverage and be saved?
| again answer no. Then how does Ii
quor affect the soul? 1t stains and blots
the soul in this present world and in the
one to come sinks it forever beneath
the flames of hell. Dear reader, do
you tipple with this deadly stuff? If
so, let me beg you for the sake of your
own soul and for the sake of our Lord
to leave off its use, for it not only
causes natural death, but causes man
to die the second death both soul and
body.
| have defined to you the effects of
liquor. Now let's look for moment
at the effects Of tobacco. Tobacco
like liquor has it's telling effects upon
the body in that it causes disease to
prey upon the health of man. Now its
effects upon the soul. Can man use to-
bacco to the glory of God? Think not.
The effects of tobacco is like unto that
of opium, morphine, etc, especially
when used in the form of cigarettes.
Therefore, tobacco Injuries the temple
in which man dwells or rather the soul
of man. In some cases tobacco using
might be termed slow suicide for it of
ten leads to premature grave.
Christian friends, leave these
thoughts with you believing that your
own conscience will tell you to leave Off
the use of this poison. ! for one am
not willing to meet God In the judgment
with this question undecided. will
abstain from its use, won't you?

SEND E. D. SMITH TO THE SENATE.
Some Good Reasons Why lie Should
Req 'esent South Carolina in that
Distinguished Body.

Some of the politicians have charged
that Hon. E. D. Smith has used the
Southern Cotton association as means
OF riding into office, but the thinking
man, the farmer, The real producer of
wealth and even the business man, must
admit that the work done by Il. ID.
Smith throughout the South and in
South Carolina particularly, has brought
more money to the farmer, the NOR
chant, the DOCTOR the lawyer and to
every other class than that of any other
man who has espouscd the cause of the
South. His work has brought results;
the increased price Of cotton which Mr..
Smith and his associates are largely re-
sponsible for bringing about, has made
the people of South Carolina all of
them-more prosperous than they have
ever been before.
Mr.. Smith attended the University of
South Carolina and is an ahmnus of
Wonord college. lie received his mas
ter's degree at Vanderbilt university,
the great Methodist institution of the
South.
He comes of distinguished ancestors,
being brother of the lamcnted Bishop
A. Coke Smith.
Mr.. Smith is an orator of national
repute and would be able 1, held his
own with the 'giants" of the senate
With Smith in the United States sen
ate South Carolina would yaaL come
into her own and be heard on 1y the
rest of the country. Mr. : nth has a
world of energy; he woui no; only
hold his own on the floor of the senate,
but his energetic work in the committee
room would count for South Carolina.
LETTER FROM W. w. RAY.
Because your prosperity and the de-
vclopmcnt of the resources of the State
depend upon the price of cotton. Be
cause he has devoted the prime of his
life, in conjunction with others, to Sc
cure profitable price to the producers
of cotton. Because he has spoken from
one end Of the South to the other, arous-
ing people on the question of the value
of cotton. He has demonstrated to all
classes, professions and vocatonS their
utter and complete dependency on the
price secured for cotton. He has con
vinced the merchant, the doctor, the
lawyer and the preacher that the fight
for high priced cotton was as much
their fight as the fight Of the producers
He has awakened the people to the right
of the producer to a voice in fixing the
price of cotton. He has denied and dis
putcd the right of the New York and
Liverpool Cotton Exchanges to place Il
price ON the cotton of Southern farmers.
