WHITE MAN LYNCHED.
Had Killed Another Man and Wound
ed His Wife.

ed His Wife.
Hurley, Va, Dec. 26.-Following 6
the killing here on Christmas Eve Of
Samuel Baker and the serious wound
ing of his wife and two children by
the formers enemy, Henry Penning-
ton, a mob of one hundred citizens
late last night took Pennington from
an improvised Jail, where he had
been incarcerated under heavy guard,
and hanged him to steam pipe.
Pennington, who had been drink
ing, picked quarrel with Baker and
shot him while the latter was on his
way to a Sunday-school Christmas
tree with his wife, his two children
and a friend, Wyatt Meadows. See
ing that he had killed Baker, Pen
nington started to run away. Mrs.
Baker called after Pennington and
implored him to help her take the
body home.
The ruse worked and Pennington
went back to the spot where his
victim lay dead. Bent upon aveng-
ing the dead, Mrs. Baker grabbed
Pennington's pistol from his pocket
and shot twice at him. Her aim was
bad, but she succeeded in wounding
him in the hand and thigh. Pen
nington recovered possession Of the
pistol and then shot the woman and
attempted to kill Meadows, who was
running away, it is alleged, and the
two children.
Pennington then fled, but was sur
rounded by posse on the outskirts
of the town later in the night. He
was captured after an exchange Of
shots with the officers, who badly
wounded him. Being too weak to
stand the journey to the Grundy jail,
fifteen miles distant, over mountain
Gus country, Pennington was locked
up in the constable's house, but
about l o'clock yesterday afternoon
it was thought advisable to remove
him to a boarding house, where he
was put under strong guard.
Feeling against Pennington ran
high, and many covert threats of
lynching were heard during the day.
Last midnight band of about one
hundred citizens was quietly organ
lied, the guard was overpowered and
Pennington was taken to the engine
room of a lumber mill, nearby, and
hanged to a steam pipe. The body
was riddled with bullets, and was
then left hanging until o'clock this
morning, when it was cut down.
Bakers funeral was held to-day,
but his wife was too badly wounded
to attend. Baker was son-in-laW
of Aunt Betty" Justice, and broth
er-in-law of George Meadows, two
of the victims of the famous sextuple
murder here several months ago, for
which Howard Little has been sent
enced to die in the electric chair on
January 6.

The Real Thing.

There's many a glittering bauble, my
lad, -.
That hides the sharpest of stings;
But the values that count
In the final amount
Are always the real things
Don't build your house on the sand,
my lad;
1t may chance for a season to stay.
But will never outlast
The driving blast
That comes to US all some day
There are good old truths that en-
dure, my lad,
And never "go out of style;;'
You may wander aside,
But calmly they bide
In their deathless beauty the while.
SO cleave to the real things my lad.
To God, and honor, and truth;
They will stand the test,
While all Of the rest
But blacken and blight your youth.

Our Great Need of Stable Manure.

Our Great Need of Stable Manure.
The old fields do not produce good
crops, because, among other things,
they are deficient in available plant
foods. We must add something to
these soils. To add commercial fer
tilizers to soils so deficient in humus
or so poorly prepared that they will
not hold sufficient water to dissolve
the plant food so the crops can take
it up, is never the most profitable.
and frequently means actual financial
loss. For building up these old fields,
the first need is stable manure, to
supply the means of maintaining that
germ life which is essential to q fer
tile soil. The growing of legumes
must always be given second place,
unless conditions are such that they
must be used as substitute for,
rather than a supplementary TO, sta
bic manure. Commercial fertilizers
should be used not only to enable us
to grow better legume crops, but also
to supplement the plant foods fur
nished by the legumes, for the grow
ing of larger yields of staple crops
such as corn and cotton.
On most Southern soils all these
sources of supplying plant foods to
the old fields should be used, but in
this review of the subject We can
only call attention to the article
No. 5, February 6, and No. 40, De-
cember 9, 19O9.-Progressive Farmer
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1909-12-30
Fertilizer Crazy.

A farmer writes to me for formu-
Ia to make fertilizer that will give
him 3S to 40 bushels Of corn next
year on land that he says is run
down 80 that it will not make over
FIVE bushels. Now, this shows the
fact that our farmers are fertilizer
crazy. There is no formula that
could be devised that would make
land that poor yield fair crop all at
once. 1t did not get poor all at once,
and it is not going to get rich all at
once, no matter how much fertilizer
you waste on it. Better put it in
peas and let them die on the land
and turn them under and sow rye
and turn that under in the spring
and then with a fair application OF
phosphoric acid and potash the land
will make more corn. Then by SOW
ing peas among it and following with
winter oats, and the oats with peas,
you may gradually get the wasted
tumus back into the soil; and by
following a good rotation Of crops
with plenty of peas and crimson
clover, you may finally get heavy
crops.
To maintain and increase the pro-
ductivity of our soil we must use
brains and continuous and wise ef-
fort and no spasmodic application OF
fertilizers is going to do the work
for us.-Progressiye Farmer.

teachers in the Bamberg graded

Mr.. w. NJ. Richardson, of Orange

quiet affair, only few persons be-

No MATCH IS
MADE AS YET
ReiIIy-McF addsn Go Sill in the
Air---Peters0n Looks
Very Fit.

Nothing more has been done with re-
gard to the Reilly McFadden bout Both
lads seem anxious for the go and the
result would certainly be a hummer, for
there is very bitter personal feeling
between them and they would go after
each other from the first tap of the
gong.
At present it is up to Joe Cohen to
make the next move. But the recent
bouts have not been a very brilliant
success and Joe has hardly had suf-
hclent encouragement to make a very
liberal offer. 1t seems to be the UNI
versal opinion round town that this
event would be a great drawing card
and it is very probable that the winner
of the go would make more by accept
ing percentage than by taking a
purse.
In the meanwhile the fans are talk
ing about the Peterson Sullivan go.
There is nothing in the rumor that
this had been called off on account
of a difference between Cohen and
Peterson as to the size of the purse.
Peterson was at work at the Orpheum
yesterday and looked remarkably fit.
The border lights over the stage were
turned on and the effect of the down
ward direction of the light was to en-
nance the lines of his muscles. He GER
tainly looked a living model of bodily
perfection as he went through his
shadow boxing stunts.
George Nelson was the victim for
Peterson yesterday. These two went
seven rounds before large audience
and the spectators had all they went
to see and then some. Nelson is striv-
ing his utmost to learn to box and is
getting better use out of his left all
the time He leads more neatly than
he has ever done before and, if the
Pune hbowl Demon insists on leaving
his face open as he did last time, he
may find that Georges fist makes
swift connection with his feed intake.
In the sixth round Nelson made a
brave rush for Peterson with a mean
right swing that should have landed.
But it met only the air and Peterson
cOuntered so neatly that the big ma
rine was staggered against the ropes
to the huge joy of the fans who had
filed up the dais seats on the stage.
There is not much love lost between
the two camps. When any member of
either establishment passes another
from the opposition on the street, they
do not exactly stop and chin on the
sidewalk. Usually there is very eere-
monious bow on both sides and they
pass on as who would say "Where
have I seen that fellow before?'
Who will referee the bout it is hard
to say. Paddy Ryan has stated that
he will not act in that capacity again
and it is doubtful whether Peterson
would agree to Mike Patton, even if
the latter would consent to act. AS a
matter of fact Mike did a good piece
of refereeing last time and was quite
correct in all his actions. Howls to the
contrary Notwithstanding.
Developments in the Reilly-McFad-
den possibility will probably show
themselves today and, while there is
not very great chance at present, it
may well be that this attractive bout
will be fixed up.

THREE PLAYERS
ARE LEAVING

Talk about bad luck. Samuel di Hop
pc stated yesterday afternoon that he
has never came across anything worse
than that which he is facing today.
Think of it, three of the best ball
players that Hoppe has in his aggre-
CATION are going away and this will
mean that old di Hoppe will have to
get busy and train up few new play
ers. The players who are going to
leave are Manuel Correa, the crack
first baseman; Kealoha, one of the best
hitters that the Riverside League has
ever produced, and Chas. Masak, anoth-
er big swatter.
Correa and Kealoha will leave on
the Claudine this evening for Puunene
Maui, where both of them have been
offered good positions and during spare
hours are signed to play for the base
ball teams there. When these boys
leave this evening, Hoppe will give
them a big sendoff by taking them to
the dock in an automobile and have
them decorated with Ieis by a few
young ladies who have been invited to
assist.
Then on either Monday or Tuesday
next week, Masak, will leave for the
Mare Island Navy Yard, and it will
be probably six months, before this lad
will again be seen in Honolulu. Masak
is well liked by all the Aala fans and
his departure will be regretted by
many Of them.

WRESTLERS ARE
FIT AND READY

The wrestling match between Sailor
Roberts and VIM. Jornen at the Or
pheum tomorrow night is attracting
considerable attention. There are
many of the fans who enjoy a good
wrestling match and these two husky
performers may be relied on to put up
fine exhibition. They seem to be
evenly matched and should draw a good
crowd to watch them disport themselves
on the mat.
Jornell has quite a record that he
has made for himself since he has been
in the United States. The following
are some of the likely men he has met
and defeated. VIM. Richon in Seattle,
Stranger Smith in Portland, Joe Warn
er in Astoria Pete Hooger in Aberdeen,
Professor Santeu in Astoria, who failed
to throw him three times in an hour;
Phil Schumacher in Seattle, Sam Riley
in Vancouver, Tim Douglas in Tacoma
and George Smith in Bellingham. He
has only one loss to his debit and that
was with Peter Hooger the second time
in Aberdeen.
The big Russian is working very seri-
ously. He has three big, husky Swede
working partners who put him through
the mill every day. These are water
front workers and are tremendously
powerful men as well as being in nat
urally good condition. Jornell is very
confident and has a fine looking wad
which he is willing to put up on him
self. He will take anything up to 5000
that he can best the sailor.
Roberts works at the Camp Very
gymnasium every afternoon and is IN
excellent condition. The Marines all
look on him as a winner and have made
up a pot of no mean dimensions to
slip out on their favorite. There will
be a big excitement tomorrow night
when the two athletes get together on
the mat.

wALLABIEs ARE EXPECTED.

The Wallabies are expected to be in
Honolulu today. They were scheduled
to leave Vancouver on the Moana and,
as that vessel is due in here some time
this morning, we may expect to see
twenty or more husky Australian ath-
letes walking round and seeing the
sights of Honolulu.
As the Moana will not stay here over
night it is impossible to arrange an
exhibition game. If the team had come
from San Francisco direct there would
have been no difficulty about this but
it is quite impossible to get up game
on such short notice.
The team has been very fairy sue
cessful during its recent tour in Eng
land but has not won has many games
as the All-Blacks and Stein Blochs did.
1t viii be pleasant to see them and hear
something of their experiences during
their trip.

HONOLULANS ARE CHAMPIONS

The Honolulu bowling team has won
the championship of the recent series
and is now the holder of the Hotel Cup.
They have not lost single game and
came out with a percentage Of one
thousand. The highest personal aver
age during the series was that OF SeTg-
cant Sim0ns and the highest team score
was made by the Punahous. 23S7.
The series has been pronounced
success in every way. 1t has promoted
the good sport Of bowling and has
induced many desultory players To get
in and work for a place on team. 1t
is to be hoped that there will be an
other tournament Of the same kind IN
the near future.
