painter and one already held In high,

TILLNIAN SCORES COLUMBIA
For Charging Guests at Taft Lunch
con $40, and Declines Invitation.

Columbia, Oct. 26.-Because he
was asked to pay $40 for a plate at
the luncheon which will be given to
President Taft on the occasion Of his
visit to this city November 9Th, SEN
ator b. r. Tillman has declined to
attend the luncheon, and states that
he may not serve on the reception
committee.
Senator Tillman states that while
Columbia is to be the nominal host
OF Mr. Taft, the city expects the
State at large to pay for the Presi-
dents entertainment. The letter in
which Senator Tillman makes these
statements is addressed to the sec
retary Of the Columbia Chamber of
Commerce, who wrote asking Mr..
Tillman if he would attend the lunch
con. Senator Tillman says he receiv-
ed an invitation to the luncheon, and
with 1t an invitation to send check
for $40.
Mr.. Tillman continues:
'ThiS may be new way of con-
Quoting entertainments in South Car
olina that will find favor in the fu-
ture, but it is wholly contrary to all
the ideas Of courtesy and hospitality
that ever heard of in this State. and
! do not propose to lend any aid or
countenanCe to it,"
MIR. Tillman, in concluding his let
ter, says, since lit seems to be the
olllcial scheme to ask men to meet
the President and have them pay the
expenses, | tell YOU cmphatically. no.
! will not attend the lunchcon."
Governor AnScl and the other mem
berS OF the committee in charge of

CONTRIBUTOR COMMENDS.

The fund for the monument to the
Confederate dead of Oconee con-
tinues to grow. Slowly but surely
the time is coming when the women
who have labored so long and earn
@stly in this cause will be able to lay
aside their work and receive the
hearty and deserved commentator
of the whole of Oconee-"Well done
good and faithful servants"
Prof. A. w. McWhorter, (English
History, Iiampden-Sidn College,
Virginia. has contributed a dollar
to the fund, and in doing so takes
occasion to say:
editor Keowee Courier: You will
find enclosed 81, which desire to
contribute to the Oconcc Confederate
monument fund. Along with others,
] am glad to join to this cause, which
seeks to commemorate the valOr
and hcrOiSm of our most noble and
glorious Confederate soldiers, living
ana dead. We cannot afford to lose
this opportunity to do them honor,
and | congratulate you and your pco-
pie on the step you have taken to
build a monument in your midst to
IN" memory Of the men who went
out from OcOncc in the early COS to
do battle for the cause Of Justice and
right.
''My special interest in this matter
grows out OF my ancestral cOnnrc-
lions with Oconec. My grandfather
the late Re-. VIM. McWhortcr, of
Bachelors Retreat, 5. c.. gave three
sons to the COnfcdcracy. The old
est, the late Or. w. ID. McWh0rtnr,
was Il member Of OrrS Regiment

in th" capacity OF Il surgeon: the
second son, (my Iathrrl. Dr. Jas.

Youngest son, John ). McWhOrtrr

gallant, but fatal, charge at the bat
Tie OF Franklin, Tenn, where he was
killed and where he now lies buried

MISS CLEMENS FOUND
DEAD IN BATH TUB
MARK TWAIN'S DAUGHTER
SUCCUMBS TO EPILEPSY

ing and Went to Bath ROom-Maid
Found Her There Dead Half Hour
Later.

Redding. Conn, Dec. 24.-Miss Jean
Clemens, the younger daughter of DIR.
Samuel l.. Clemens Mark Twain) was
found dead in a bath tub at her home
here shortly before eight O'Clock
this morning by her maid. following
an anxious wait for her mistress to
appear in her dressing room. Epilep-
sy from which she had suffered sever
al years, is given as the cause of her
death. During the last few months
her condition seemed improved.
When she arose at seven o'clock
this morning she greeted her father
cordially and retired to her bath
room after instructing her maid to be
ready in the dressing room half an
hour later When the mistress failed
to appear. the maid investigated and
found the body. Mark Twain is re-
ported nearly prostrated with grief
and it is feared the shock may prove
serious. Miss Jean Clemens is 25
years old and has recently acted as
her fathers secretary. Twain's other
daughter. Clara, at present on her
honeymoon in Switzerland. has been
notified of her sisters death.

NANCE O'NEIL WINS
RECOGNITION IN NEW YORK

New York. Dec. 24.-Nance O'Neil
for years great favorite on the Pa
cific coast stage but without recog-
milton here. has won New York laur-
els at last and is heralded today as
one of the foremost emotional actress
es of the age. Following her great
success in THE Lily" which opened
last night in the Stuyvesant under the
direction Of David Belasco, her po-
sition is established above question.
After the third act of the play the
curtain had to be run up IS times in
answer To the insistent applause. The
audience gave Miss O'Neil the sort OF
demonstration that is the dream OF
aspirants to dramatic success. All
New York papers today agree in pay
ing her high compliments and pro-
claiming her one of the best actresses
of the world of her type.
