Phiiandet Chase Knox who =
Mr.. Taft's secretary Of state. rezen-
tiers the cabinet atter five years IN

he was appointed IN June, 1904. TO
iii the vacancy caused by the death
Of Matthew NJ. Quay. Like most Of
his colleagues in the new cabinet
Mr.. Knox Is lawyer and frst came.
into national ptominence as atto.S
uey-general in Mr.. McKinley's first
cabinet when he successfully prose-
cuted the Northern Securities case.
Mr.. Knox is So years old, having
been born in Brownsville, Pa, May
8, 1853. After graduating from
Mount Union College at Alliance,
o., he began the study Of law in
Pittsburg and three years later was
admitted to the bar in that city.
When Mr.. Knox was only "a years
of age he was appointed Assistant
United States District Attorney for
the Western district Of Pennsylya-
MIA. After a short term i'll this Of
fee, however. he resigned and en-
tered private practice with James
II. Reed, under the firm name OF
Knox & Reed. The Arm became
counsel for many large interests and
it is said that Mr.. Knox has recely-
cd some of the largest fees ever
paid iii this country. During the
Homestead riots in 1892 he was
counsel for the Carnegie Steel Com
pany, and directed the legal. end of
that lannon's labor disturbance.
When in 1901 Mr.. Mckinley APP
pointed him attorney general AR.
Knox's participation in the Home

on the part OF labor organizations
to his confirmation. AS attorney
general MI. Knox not only prose-

ernment's suit against the Northern
Securities Company, but conducted
the case against the so-called beet
trust with the result that that com
hination was sdissolved blythe final
decree of the United States Supreme
Court. Mr.. Knox has been credited
also with having prepared and car
ried through the Panama Canal pur-
chase in 1908. 1t was shortly after
the conclusion OF the Panama pur-
chase that Mr.. Knox was appointed
to the United States Senate by
Governor Pennypacker to dill the va

Governor Dawson as a Leader
Whfle the Charleston Gazette does
not agree with the policies pursued
tand advocated by William NJ. TO-
Dawson as governor of the State yet
that newspaper frankly acknowl-
edges his greatness as leader OF
men, In this respect the Gazette
says:
Governor Dawson is entitled TO
the respect of those who like deter
minatton and pluck, and who ad-
mire a man of ability and dntiring
energy. He has led the energies OF
ithe state four years of loud cry and
hot foot. He has whipped into I'M
willing, and distasteful submission
hundreds of the big men of his own
party and has caused many OF his
ideas to be written upon the statute
books of the state. He has exercised
control over his party and It's
leaders and impressed his views and
methods upon the times, in such a
way and to such a degree that'3it Is
idle to question his great ability or
fail to accord him wonderful execa-
tive force and pronounced character
istics as a leader of men. Like all
active, earnest and able men; his
friends and foes are intense. The
governors enemies are after his
scalp all the time and would get 1t
but for his friends who sleep with
one eye open to guard, at all times,
his interests. 4

IMPURE WATER AND PELLAGRA.
Army Surgeons Study Origin of the
Disease.

s Il
Washington.-It will be safe, for
those who like 1t, to eat cornbread
and hoecake to safety without
knowing to certainty that the corn
will cause the dreaded pellagra.
Army surgeons have made discov-
cries as 20 the origin of the disease,
which is found in many parts of the
South, and which exists in many
part Of the country to an alarming
degree. These discoveries have been
made at Peoria, at the Illinois State
General Hospital for the Insane. 1t
appears that patients afflicted with
pellagra have first undergone an af-
Fiction of the intestinal tract re-
sembling dysentery, which is often
brought about by an impure water
supply. That the disease at the Peo-
ria Hospital was due to impure wa
lfer IS said tos be pretty well estab-
iished. l. U6rd4a aos capt. Sifer, pei
lagra has lately been discovered in
New York. He expects other COM
however, soon to be heard
from. The army surgeons do not con-
slider they have found out all there is
to be found about the origin of the
disease. They still look on corn as
one of the food products that may
cause it, but it is considered that
many vegetable foods of a starchy
nature may also be responsible in
part. 1t is thought pellagra is caus-
ed by the action of starchy sub
stances on the damaged Innings of
the intestines.

BEN kINCHEN Was IN A RACE
Defies Jailers, Who Would Put
Him in Cell.
SAYS HE HAS been IMPOSED upon
Swings Razor and Threatens Officers
in Anaite City Jail. Finally In
duced to Go Into Cell by His
Attorney, Judge Reid.

Amite City. Excitement was at
fever heat last week around the
Tangipahoa parish Jail, when Ben
Kinchen, held for the triple murder
of the Breland family in this, parish,
and under indictment for the killing
of Doe Everett in Livingston, held
the ofacers for a.time at bay with a
] kpp1ara 6 inch eI pad heen
having some trouble with Cleveland
Hughes, who Is in Jail for killing a
negro at Tangipahoa not long ago,
the difficulty being renewed in a
fight which was stopped by Deputy
Sheriff Dave Story, who order Kin
chen to desist, whereupon hot words
ensued, Kinchen calling the officer a
liar. Story Immediately struck Kin
chen on the head with a bunch of
keys. Kinchen retaliated by slash
ing the officer on the hand with
razor, with which he was armed.
Chief Deputy Dolhonde, who had &C
companied Officer Story into the Jail,
at this juncture threw his pistol On
Kinchen, demanding that he make no
further advances. The officers then
ordered Kinchen into a cell, but he
refused to obey, whereupon they re-
paired to the outside and deputized
several bystanders to assist them in
putting Kinchen into cell.
The Times-Democrat correspond
ent and another man went into Kin
chen's room in the Jail, which he has
been allowed to furnish comfortably,
and asked him why he refused to be
locked up and continued to defy the
officers. He answered that he was
desirous and anxious to make state
ment for publication in the presence
of three intelligent persons, naming
as the desirable witnesses Judge
Robert R. Reid. Thomas M. Ranks
ton and Judge Clay Elliott. Ellis, is
sued a peremptory order that Kin
chen be placed in the cell at all cost.
The temperance of the officer with
the order still found kinchen in his
room defying the officers to do their
worst, asserting that all kinds of i'm
positions had been heaped upon him
because Avery Blount was convicted
Of the murder of the Breland family,
and his brother Garfield Kinchen,
was fugitive, charged with the
crime.
But for the timely appearance of
Judge Reid, Kinchen's attorney In
the Livingston case, and one Of the
persons requested by him to witness
statement, bloodshed might have
resulted. However, this fear was
put at naught when Judge Reid,
who had entered Kinchen's room, re-
appeared shortly with him and walk
ed around to cell, which Kinchen
entered
