Arm Lacerated in Gin Saws.

Aiken, Dec. 6.-On Friday J. H.
Adams, one of the most prominent
citizens of Sweetwater section of the
county, suffered a most painful acci-
dent, which will probably necessitate
the amputation of his left arm.
Mr.. Adams, while at the Toole gin
merry, near Hamburg, was assisting in
ginning a bale of cotton. The ginnery
was short of help and Mr.. Adams
volunteered to help out. The gin
merry is operated by gasoline engine,
which had stopped, and while the gin
was not running Mr.. Adams was
cleaning out the moats under the
gin board. While he had his hand
in the gin saws the engineer started
the engine, catching the shirt sleeve
of his left arm in the gin saws. The
entire left arm was quickly drawn
into the gin, and besides being brok-
en-, the arm was terribly lacerated.
But for the fact that the belt was
loose his arm would have been
ground to pieces, but the belt slipped,
thus stopping the gin saws. Mr.
Adams was quickly carried to the
Augusta hospital, where he is now
receiving treatment. It is hoped that
his arm may be saved, but it is
doubtful, as it was severely crushed.
Mr.. Adams is widely known and
his many friends are grieved to learn
of his severe misfortune.

TO BUILD GREAT TUNNEL.
New York Plans Gigantic Water
Main From Catskills.

New York, Dec. "a public hear
ing was held to-day by the Board OF
Estimate on the amended plan OF
conveying the Catskill water supply
through the city. 1t is proposed, to
build a tunnel fourteen feet in d.
ameter nearly the entire length OF
Manhattan Island, with branch
tunnel under the East River to
Brooklyn and Queens. The length of
the tunnel will be about thirty-three
miles, which is five miles shorter
than the system originally planned.
It will be necessary to bore
through solid rock for nearly the
entire distance at depth of from
five to six hundred feet, and with
out disturbing street traffic.
It is proposed to run tunnel
across the Harlem River on bridge,
near High Bridge, and then south
under the centre of Manhattan. The
system is arranged to give greater
pressure than the original plan pro-
vided in addition to serving every
borough in the city. The cost will
not be materially greater than the
first plan, which provided for pipe
conduct system through the Bronx,
Queens and Brooklyn to Staten
Island with a separate pipe line for
Manhattan.

Nomination Displeases Smith.

Washington, Dec. Louis {.
Kuker's name was sent to the senate
to-day to be postmaster at Florence.
The appointment was made without
consulting Senator Smith and the
Senator does not like it. He isn't
going to stand for it. He will inter-
pose his objection to the confirma-
ton.
1t is an unwritten law in the SEN
ate not to confirm man as post
master in a senator's home town
when the senator objects. President
Taft did consult with Senator Smith
several times last spring about the
Florence postofRce, but Kuker was
not the man over whom the consul
tation hinged. Last August Kuker
was all of a sudden-like given a re-
cess appointment when the senator
wasn't looking.
He seized on the job, supplanting
the Rev. Wilson, and now he is up
for confirmation. We shall see what
will happen. Even the unwritten law
sometimes fails. Senator Smith will
have a little talk with the president.

HUNTER CASE CONSIDERED.
Appeal Of Carolina Man Before
United States Supreme Court.

Washington, December 6.-The
case Of G. Wash Hunter. against the
State of South Carolina, now on ap-
peal in the Supreme Court of the
United States came before the Court
this morning on motion for a writ
of certiorari to complete the record
in the case, strangely called in legal
phrase, For diminution of the rec
ord by the addition to the record OF
the opinion of the Trial Court at
Greenwood, at which place Hunter
was found guilty of manslaughter
and sentenced to seven years In the
penitentiary. Blease & Dominick, Of
Newberry, and Richey & Richey, OF
Laurens, are local counsel for Hunt
er, and Jno. G. Capers, who per-
fected the appeal of the case to the
Supreme Court of the United States,
represents Hunter here.
Mr.. Capers, for counsel, made no
objection to the addition of the rec
ord suggested, but was unwilling that
the record should be further added
to by matters which had not been
in the printed record of the case
considered by the Supreme Court of
South Carolina, unless in turn, mat
ters which he desired put in the
record were also allowed to 60 in.
Attorney General Lyon and Mr.. Ca
pers could not agree about these ad-
ditions to the record and it was,
therefore, agreed to allow it COM
pleted only in the way requested by
the writ of certiorari and to take up
later on, as an agreed statement OF
counsel, such matters, if any, as are
to be hereafter added. 1t is prob
able that it will be sometime before
the case will finally be heard by the
Supreme Court of the United States.

THREATEN NEGRO.
Scheme to Lynch Jailed Negro Youth
Reported.

Kingstree, Dec. 6.-John Rose, a
negro less than 20 years old, charg-
ed with an attempted criminal as
suit this morning on a 14-year-old
white girl several miles above here,
was secretly brought to town this
afternoon and is now in jail. 1t is
reported that the negro admitted in
tercepting the girl this morning as
she was on her way to school, but
denies having attacked her.
He was caught short time after
the alarm was given and quietly
brought to the Jail. Up to this time
no demonstration has been made
though it is reported that an at
tempt to take the prisoner will be
made tonight. 1t is hardly probable,
however, that these rumors will ma
terialize. This being salesday there
was an unusally large crowd in
town, but very few knew of the at
tempted assault until the prisoner
had been placed in jail.
Everything is quiet now.

ECHOES OF LYNCHING BEE.
Illinois Court up Against Stone Wall
of Silence at Cairo Investigation.

Cairo, Ill.,, Dec. 6.-As a result of
the recent race riots in Cairo, when
Judge Lynch presided, the regular
term of the circuit court commenced
to-day, will be the most important in
Cairo history. Arthur Alexander, ac-
cused with the negro James, who was
lynched, of having killed Miss Anna
Pelly, will be tried during the term.
What investigation of the lynchers
was made will also come up for a
legal review, but there is little pros
pect Of securing the conviction of the
men who led the mob. General SYM
pathy is with those who took the law
into their own hands, and the author
tiles have found themselves up
against a stone wall of silence.
While most of the citizens regret the
reign of terror which was inaugural
ed by the mob, a majority now con-
slider it best to let sleeping dogs lie,
and forget the whole matter as speed
lily as may be done.

PROSPERITY RULES.
Business Men Report Bright Outlook
in Every Industry.

New York, Dec. 6.-That indus
trial prosperity rules throughout the
United States, and that the business
men Of the country expect 1t to con-
tinue, is shown in reports from g.
900 representative firms, compiled by
the National Association of Manu-
facturers and made public here to-
day.
John Kirby, Jr., president OF the
association, summing up the result
of the reports received, says: 1T is
quite within the bounds of conserva-
tion to say that to-day, practically
two years after our so-called panic,
the country has reached condition
of normal prosperity. BY normal
prosperity Is meant to be understood
a satisfactory state of manufacturing,
selling and collections.
"This statement is not based upon
unsupported optimism, but upon
such trade barometers as the agricul-
tural output, bank clearings, manu-
featuring, movement of freight and
other we'll known indications.
A majority of the manufacturers,
in making suggestions as to the best
means to maintain condition OF
normal prosperity throughout the
country, urge that it is necessary to
keep down the prices of raw ma
terials, and avoid further tariff agi-
tation for the present.
1t is further said that all inter-
ested in the general welfare of the
country preach conservatism and
fight wild speculation in real estate
and business enterprises in general,
as we'll as in Wall street."
