SENATOR TrLLMAN AMUSED
To See How Little Was Made Out
of W'ylie's Confession.

Senator Tillman was in Columbia
on Monday on his way to the country
from his home in Trenton, stopping
over between trains to do bit of
personal banking business.
What do you think Of the YER
dict in the Farnum case?" he was
asked, as he boarded street hack
and ordered the driver to hurry to
the Southern train.
Haven't thought very much about
it one way or the other" he said,
ordering the driver to "go on. ,
1T has tickled ME no little to see
how some people are worrying about
it. And it has surprised and amused
me to see how little the prosecution
got out of it's little game Of bam-
boozling that follow Wylie into a
confession. BY that time the Sen
ator was making his way rapidly
toward the depot.
He told a friend that it was his
intention to do no ircturing this
year, that he was gCiag home and
stay there till Congress opened. de-
voting his attention to farming.

CURTAIL's MAYORS POWERS.
Judge Aldrich Renders an Important
Decision.

An appeal case from the mayors
court involving an important ques-
ton of Jurisdiction, was decided be-
fore Judge Aldrich in the Sessions
court at Anderson last week. The
appeal was from a decision of the
mayor imposing fine of one hundred
dollars or thirty days for selling
whiskey, and the decision reversed
the mayor.
Appellants counsel took the po-
sition that the mayors court had no
jurisdiction to try defendant charg-
led with selling whiskey, maintaining
that the mayor had only concurrent
jurisdiction with the magistrate, and
that, as the statutes gave a magls-
trate no jurisdiction to try such
case the mayor was bound by the
same statutes limitation. The gen.
eral statutes give the mayor Of the
city the same powers as a nagis-
trate, and it was argued by counsel
for the defense that city counsel
could not extend by ordinance the
jurisdiction defined by the Legis-
ture.
The decision Of Judge A!drich in
case it is sustained by the Supreme
court will be of the most far reach
ing consequences. 1t might seriously
hamper the enforcement of the liqour
law in every town and city in the
State. All that the police depart
ment of city could do would be
to make arrests and have warrants
issued by a magistrate. The magis-
trate would then, if upon pre-
liminary hearing the evidence war
rants it, send the case up to the Ses-
sions court for trial. The decision
has attracted great deal Of inter-
est here. The city will appeal to the
Supreme court, and decision Of that
tribunal will be awaited with gener-
al interest over the State.

Monday. A rumor got out last week
among the children in lower Jersey

made to blow up the school with
dynamite.
The children had been particular
ly nervous about it, and when the
bombs went off suddenly, they ran
from the recitation rooms into the
halls and down the stairways.
There. are two street doorways but
one Of them was closed. At the
closed entrance there occurred a dis

SCORES INJURED
BY A TERRIFIC EXPLOSION OF
FILMS AT PITTSBURG.
Accident Spreads Excitement in the
Downtown District of the City.
Damage Amounts to 100000.

At Pittsburg, Pa, terrific eX-
plosion occurred Monday in the Of
fice of the Columbian Films ex-
change, located in the Ferguson
building, between Smithfield and
Wood street, in the heart Of the
downtown district.
From SO to Is persons were in
jured, many of them seriously. and
the monetary damage is estimated
at 100000 or more.
At first it was said that seven
employees of the Aim company had
lost their lives, but thorough
search of the ruins failed to disclose
any dead. The employees, it is now
thought, made their escape and have
not been located owing TO the great
confusion which followed the iex-
plosion.
A score of injured were taken to
hospitals. A majority of them are
burned, while the others sustained
fractures of the arms and limbs.
The force of the explosion was so
great that south wall of the Fergu-
son building on Third avenue was
blown out. The remaining walls
were badly damaged and the build
ing inspector Immediately ordered
them razed.
Windows for fully square on
either side Of the explosion were
broken and a number of pedestrians
making their way along Fourth
avenue, the "Wall Street" Of Pitts
burg, were cut by falling glass. The
explosion was caused by an electric
al spark. The manager of the firm
was absent.
Practically every Office the big

many of them falling down tho
stairways. Others congregated about
the elevator shaft and in their frant-
ic efforts to board the cars wrecked
the iron frame work encasing the
shaft. AS most of them finally reach
ed the street they fell to the ground
suffering from burns cuts and
bruises.
The accident threw the downtown
dist rict into the greatest excitement
and special detach1nents of police
were necessary to clear the streets
of pedestrians who at times were
in imminent danger from second
explosion.
Shortly before o'clock all the
employees of the film company had
been located. John X. Gilletts,
shipping clerk, made a statement in
which he said the explosion occurred
in the vault Gilletts said he went
into the vault. which is three feet
wide and six feet high, to get a
film. When he turned the electric
Hight on a spark shot from the switch
and signited one of the films. He
jumped from the vault, slammed the
door and shouted to the others to
run. As they reached the corridor
the explosion occurred.

COTTON PICKER
INVENTED BY A BENNETTSVILLE
MAN IS A SUCCESS.
Operated by Seven Hands and Will
Pick From Four to Six Thousands
Pounds Per Day.

For years the genius of the South
has been trying to solve the problem
Of labor saving in the cotton fields
with especial reference to the picking
of the cotton, the great bug-a-boo of
the planter. Mason of Sumter and
others have made partially success
ful experiments, but nothing has
yet been found practical. A Ben
nettsville genius now thinks he has
solved the problem. The Advocate
| of that town in speaking Of the in
vention says:
A few days ago Angus Campbell,
representing Theodore Price, the
we'll known New York Cotton man
and speculator, was in Bennettsville
for the purpose of securing field OF
| cotton for the demonstration of Mr..
Campbells cotton picker, in which
Mr.. Price and others are interested.
1t was announced that the cotton
would remain in the field till about
| the first of October, when Mr.. Price
and his associates would come to
Bennettsvile and try the machine
in the field of cotton, which was OBJ
tanned from Mr.. Prices friend, ex-
Senator John L. McLaurin.
A few days after Mr.. Campbell
was here, a telegram was received
from New York, announcing that
the factory which was making the
cotton picker had been burned down.
and that the demonstration would
have to be called off. -. ..,....--
While the people Of this section
will not have the anticipated pleas
ure of seeing the Campbell-Price
picker demonstrated here they will
be able to see one invented and
manufactured by a Bennettsville
man. ]. NJ. Brasington, the inven-
tor and manufacturer Of the. Star
pea; huller, and other valuable farm
machinery Of his own invention.
He expects to have 1t ready, for a
| practical trial in the field within the
next few weeks.
Mr.. Brasington's picker will be
operated on the suction principle.
| It will have six arms and when one
| of them touches an open bole Of cot
! ton, the staple will be drawn from
the boil and up the hollow arm into
a receptacle. The principle Is the
same as that by which cotton is
sucked up from a stall or wagon
into ginnery.
The machine will be propelled
and operated by a gasoline engine.
The wheels will run in the middle
of the rows and the machine will be
high enough to move over the top
of the stalks. The arms will be di-
rected to the open bolls by hand.
There will be an operator FOR each
arm, one on each side Of the row,
and three rows will be picked at a
| time. The arm will merely touch
the boil, when the cotton will be
instantly sucked out and will be
passing up into the receptacle while
the arm is being moved to the next
boil.
Mr.. Brasington has tried the ma
chine by taking stalks of cotton to
it in the factory here. 1t picks the
cotton clean, and he is convinced
that a practical demonstration in
the field will prove it to be a sue
cess. He estimates that machine
will pick from 1000 to 5000 pounds
day. 1t will require seven hands
six to operate the arms, and an en-
gineer. The machine will be so
constructed that the engineer can
regulate the speed for thick or thin
cotton.
