NARROW ESCAPE
OF MRS. M'FALL
THROWN FROM BUGGY WITH HER
DAUGHTERS AND ALL SUS-
TAIN INJURIES.

Mrs Emma McFall and daughters,
Misses Mary and Emma, had a mar
row escape from death Thursday af-
ternoon and as it was both the young
ladies received numerous painful
bruises. The three ladies had been
to Mrs. Allen Harlan's entertainment
and were returning home on the
Hampshire pike. Soon after starting
down Perkins hill, one of the steep
est drives near Columbia, the holding
back straps broke and their horse ran
away down the steep hill. The ladies
were riding in runabout and were
somewhat crowded and in conse-
quence could not successfully control
the horse or retain their positions.
After the horse had run some distance
the young ladies were thrown violent
ly to the ground, but managed to hold
on to the lines. Mrs. McF'all remained
in the vehicle. The yound ladies were
some distance and the horse
finally stopped. The vehicle was not
damaged.

WRIGHT WILL
NOT MAKE RACE
DECLINES TO ACCEPT HIGH HON.
OR FROM The PRoHlBl-
TON PARTY.

ATLANTA. Ga, July 13.-Seaborn
Wright. a member Of the Georgia Leg
islature and a leading advocate Of
prohibition, who has been mentioned
as the possible nominee Of the Pro
hibition Convention now in session at
Columbus, o., in a statement given TO
the Associated Press today, says that
he can not accept the nomination
should it be given him. Mr. Wright's
statement follows:
In a conference recently with
Chairman Jones and Wilson / told
them | could not accept a nomination
for President by the Prohibition par
ty. The question of negro domina-
ton was not in my mind. / have no
fear of this in the South. 1t is the
fear of the liquor domination in the
Democratic party in the South. If l
should go out Of the Democratic party
to accept the Prohibition nomination
for President and carry with me any
considerable number of Southern Dem
ocrats, it would turn the dominant
Democratic party in the South over
to the liquor element in the party,
resulting in repeal of the prohibition
legislation secured already in the
South through the Democratic party.
Il am thoroughly in sympathy with
the high aims of the Prohibition par
ty. am not insensible to the great |
honor of nomination for President !
at their hands, and nothing on earth
would give me more pleasure than to |
speak on this vital question to the
people of the country from the com
position of a candidate for
President.
The one overshadowing question
before the American people today is
clean, intelligent citizenship. If
he American saloon is not destroyed,
will eventually destroy this Repub-
ic through the corruption of the peo-
lie, especially in our great cities. The
question today is not so
much the right of the individual to
rink as the right of The dominant
quor interest to destroy the citizen /
hip upon which this Republic is bot
omed."

WHERE NOMINEE
WIN. TAFT STANDS
HIS PERSONAL VIEWS ON INJuNc-
TIoNs ARE OFFICIALLY
MADE PUBLIC.

CHICAGO. July IA statement
given out b. the industrial headquar.
tiers established by Mr.. Taft's cam
paign managers here and printed to
day referring to Mr.. Taft's personal
anti-injunction views, says:
The injunction as It has been used
in labor cases generally is repugnant
to our American sense OF fairness.
Judge Taft stands ON record with the
union as opposed TO it in its present
form, a position that many others
who had advised against the injunc-
ton have not dare to take. what
strongly emphasizes the difference
between talking about a matter and
being ready to do it.
He Judge Taft has stated repeat
eddy that no injunction should be
granted until both parties to the case
have been heard. If this suggestion
ever becomes law, the labor injunc
ton will be put out of business, for
the right to leave service under GER
tain conditions has been established
firmly. The dissolution of each labor
injunction issued against a strike in
wage controversy directly between the
employer and the employee proved it,"

STORE ROBBED
BY TWO BOYS
CRIMINALS WORE
MASKS, CARRIED GUNS AND
PLANNED TO BLOW SAFE.

BATESVILLE, Ark, July 10
Their desire for a goat and cart out
weighed their fear of the law, and
.aeven boys between the ages of and
IL years are under arrest charged
with burglarizing the store of Wat
kins & Young last week and taking
away $40 from the cash register. Sus-
picion was attracted to the boys by a
display of money which they made
after the robbery, and when one of
them was arrested he confessed to
the robbery and implicated his other
companions He said each of them
had borrowed a pistol, wore masks
and planned to blow the safe in the
store when they first entered. They
had drilled hole in the door of the
safe and were ready to put the nitro
glycerine in when a noise overhead
frightened them off.
After their arrest the boys managed
10 get together about half of the mon
~ they had stolen, which they re-

COL. BROWN THROWN
FROM HIS HORSE
SuSTAlNS SERIOUS INJURIES IN
FALL, COLLAR BONE BEING
FRACTURED.

Col, Allen Brown was thrown from
his horse while en- route home from
town Monday afternoon and sustained
painful injuries. Col. Brown
had almost reached the gate where
he turns in from the Theta pike to
his farm. A COW dashed out suddenly
from the side of the road and the
horse SHE'D and threw Col Brown
violently to the ground, the fall rem
dering him unconscious. John Cant,
Jr, was near by and secured help
and carried Col. Brown into a nearby
house. He was later taken to his
home. He is doing as well as could
be expected today and his friends
hope for his early recovery.

At the mention OF Patterson's name

light. the long peHt up enthusiasm
didn't catch on. the boys on the door

ana moved his arms and began 10
shout as If something had happened.
Immediately other leaders on the
stage likewise rose to the rescue and
then the boys knew what was ex-
pected OF them and they did their
stunt right manfully They paraded
the hall with banners, Rugged each
other in their delirium of joy, gal
Hoped up and down the aisles and
about the stage, but the slow start
gave the whole thing away, it was
and never had the ring
of the real thing, though it lasted
twenty-eight minutes.

their seats utterly unconscious of the
asses they had made of themselves. !

them a hell of a long time to get /
