The committee, composed of Rep

Rucker and j. R. Earle, of the South
Carolina Legislature, which inspect
ed the Augusta canal locks recently
have completed their work and will
recommend to the National Govern
ment the sending of an expert to
Augusta to look over the situation
and suggest the proper fish gate for
the locks. ...
Superintendent J. D. Twiggs, of
the waterworks department, stated
this morning that he had ordered
lumber already for the new tish gate
but he would wait now to hear from
the government.
Mr.. Twiggs stated that there were
very few fish In the river around the
locks and that he reported to the
committee the fact that fishermen
keep nets and trot lines in the river
all the while and there are few fish
that get as far up the river as the
locks.
The committee will take the mat
ter up with the South Carolina off,
GERS, and 1t Is possible that the Geor-
gia and Carolina officers will work
together and try to prevent the fish.

but as he didn't own a horse, he
hitched up his COW to a two-wheeied
cart. BY this arrangement the cow
was active in the departments of
both production and transportation,
for he delivered milk direct from
the cow. There were no complaints
about unsanitary milk bottles on his
route. The customer would hand

TOLAND BOYS WE'RE HANGED.
The Elder Swore that the Younger
Brother was Not Guilty.

Columbia, May 1.-Ned and Brack
Toland, colored, were hanged at Lex
ington court house to-day for the
murder Of Mrs. p. w. Ellison, at
Cayce three months ago. There was
a tremendous crowd in town, but the
citement. The two young negroes
repeated practically the same story
told on the trial three weeks ago,
and while on the gallows Ned, the
elder Of the two, declared: 81 am
guilty, but my brother Is innocent"
The enclosure was fenced of with
an eight-foot fence and the scaffold
was itself screened by cloth. Only
thirty persons saw the execution.
There has been considerable senti-
ment in Columbia against the sum-
mary execution Of the younger boy
as many believed he was an innocent
locker on. Further, 1t was held that
the fact the jury hesitated to bring
in verdict against him should
weigh in his favor, and 1t was argued
that both were convicted only be-
cause there was fear of mob violence
If any other verdict was returned.
Several strong appeals were made to
Governor Ansel up to late hour last
night, but he positively declined to
interfere at all. He was asked only
to grant q reprieve to the younger
boy, but he refused even this.
