SOLDIERS WILL
 GET BACK PAY

Washington, D. C., Feb. 25 Attorney Adrian Sizer of this city has been interested in getting an additional S6, 349 o7 to be added to the SIG, 6,927.IS previously allowed to the state of Arkansas for the two regiments that the state raised for the Spanish American war.

 The money goes to the two Ark ansas regiments and is due for time spent in mobilization and transportation before the regiment entered active service.

LOOKS LIKE MURDER

Paris, March, 13.-The preliminary investigation into the charges against Mme. Steinheil, accused of having murdered her husband AdoIphe Steinheil, a painter, and her step- mother. Mime. Japey. was concluded today. The examining magistrate, NJ. Andre. informed the woman that the evidence against her was sufficient to warrant a formal accusation of premeditated murder.
 She will be tried for her life in the assize court, not as an accom- plce, but as the principal. The in vestigation says the magistrate, led logically to the deduction that Mme. Steinheil herself, in seeking to get rid of her husband, to whom she objected, and her step mother. whose fortune she would inherit, deliberately planned and carried out the double crime

 conduct myself in ihe office for which you propose me, US to further the
 best interests of the DniteI States and merit your approval. We have
 before us a most difficult session. Tariff legislation is in . class by. it self and from the standpoint nf I,rac- teal legislation preson:s more diffi- cult problems than any other kind of legislation. A tariff bill is general in that it affects the whole great subject of revenue; bLt. q: the same time, private and special in its la- lure, as it enters every district -,..d affects the produces oi every f;rm and factory.
 "The approaching Legislation. tbr-e-' fore. win bring with it peculiar 6i:- ficulties and unusual temptations. While we must guard with snlicitous care the interests of people we rer- resent individually, we mus. keep constantly in mind that our first duty Is to the United States as whole, that its revenues may be sufficient. It is not only necessary that we do our work well, but essential that We do it as quickly as is consistent with thoroughness. The industries of over 0,000. 900 people await our motions. Newspapers tell us, as one symptom of industrial prostration. that 300.0O0 freight cars lie idle on the sidings. The wisdom of those who have pre- ceded us in this house has left us "a system of rules the most efficient that ever guided legislative body as large as the house of representatives. Every step in making these rules efficient was resisted by the minor aity and the men who stood up for the rules were misrepresented by ev cry interest affected by their action and criticised by large army of in nocent victims of the misrepresenta- tion. But misrepresentation dies with the day. Now those men who so much criticised then are commended on every hand, while new brood of misrepresentation arouses new criticism"

AIKEN MAY HAVE new
BANK.
h0VEMENT ON GOT TO LSTAB-
LISH NATIONAL BANK IN THAT
CITY NORTHERN VISIT
0RS INTERESTED.

Aiken, March "a movement
is on foot for the establishments of
the First National Bank Of Aiken"
in this city. Announcement was
made in a journal of finance several
days ago Of the scheme. DIR. b.
Sherwood Dunn, winter resident
OF this city, is now in the city, and
says he is working in the interest of
the new institution.
The capital Of the new bank is TO
be $4,000, and its promoters are
MessrS 4. R. Graves. Charles Z.
Sprague, Leslie h. Palmer and How
ard f. Butler, all capitalists of more
or less prominence in New York fl
nancial circles. Nothing definite has
been given out about the new bank.
DR.. Dunn states that the institu-
ton has not yet taken any definite
form. but that the gentlemen named
as promoters stand ready with the
money if they find that the field
here is as inviting as it should be for
national bank, DR.. Dunn appears
to be enthusiastic over the prospects
Tor such bank, and he believes
that there is nothing in the way for
a splendid bank.
No secret negotiations are being
made, he said, and as fast as de
velopments are made, he will make
them public.

Lexington, March During the
last few months the roads Of LeXing-

court house to Columbia have been
clayed, with the exception of abo ut
mile and a half, and this will be
finished in the near future, it is said.
The Augusta road has been clayed
eight miles beyond town and is as
fine piece Of road as there is in the
country The better condition Of
these roads has been brought about
by the cooperation of the people
living in the neignborhood, who assist
by hauling and otherwise aiding in
the work. The county has furnished
a great deal Of assistance and in this
way no one seems to be out a great
deal Of cash. County Supervisor

TELEPHONE WIRES CUT

Aiken, March l-On Sunday
morning one Of the most malicious
acts of recent date was committed.
The rural telephone line running into
the Johnson and Prothro territory
was cut by mischievous boys. Some
persons climbed the pole and with
some kind of an Instrument cut the
wire, and made communication with
the city impossible.
The maliciousness of the act was
made apparent soon after the deed
was accomplished. A party in the
neighborhood desired to telephone
for doctor to attend very sick
child, but il could not be done, and
the result was a delay Of some time
before the physician could be secured
the child residing several miles in
the country.

section has offered a reward OF
twenty five dollars for the conviction
Of the party or parties who did this

CLOSING HOURS OF
THE GENERAL
ASSEMBLY
TO DECIDE THE LIQUOR QUESTION
In AUGUST

Columbia, Mar. With the
sine die adjournment of the legisla-
ture carly Sunday morning 11:5o by
the house and senate clocks, but
tritle after 9 by all others-came to
d close most unusual session of the
Legislature. The net result of it all
was conclusively to prove what had
been confidently asserted before
tnat the house was prohibition and
the senate local option. True, the
majoritieS in both cases were great
enough to Join issue with the senate
and consented to the compromise
bill.
The compromise bill fathered by
Senator Christensen was passed by
the senate Thursday night after
three hours discussion.
The bill is in effec, sorely a mea-
sure to compel elections throughout
the otate--or rather in the wet"
countes--on the question of LIQUOR
sale. The bill provides that on Au-
gust 3 all county dispensaries shall
be closed and statewide prohibition
shall be inaugurated. On the 18th.
however, elections on the sale of
whlskey are to be held in counties
now wet. If liquor is voted in the
Counties are to continue to run their
county dispensaries under the Carey-
Corhran act, as at present. The test
vote on the Christensen compromise
IN the senate resulted For the bill
Is; against 9.
When the senate passed the com
promise measure, which purpoted to
be an amendment to the Statewide
prohibition bill, though it was in
reality local option measure. it
was freely predicted that the house
would not accept the amended bill.
but such speculat;onS proved un-
founded. the house consenting to
the compromise Saturday.
Thus for one more year the state
wide prohibition movement is laid
on the table. 1t is claimed by Sen
ator Otis that at least Is counties
will 80 dry al the election in August
but this estimate is believed by most
to be too high. The general opin-
ion seems to be that from five to
seven counties will vote themselves
dry,
Besides the liquor bill the most
important act of the legislature at
this session was the repeal of the
lien law, which came earlier in the
session, before the determined fight
on prohibition was well begun.
Other Important Action.
Other important notes by the leg
iSlature were: The passage of the
bill requiring statements of condit-
ions by all corporations.
The killing of the railroad rate law
making the legal rate in this State
| Z IL cents miie. The railroads
are now giving 2 ID cent rate, so
the bill would have made no imme-
diate difference.
The increase in the appropriation
Itor common schools.
The enlargement of Commission
Ter WatSon,s duties, extending his
| Jurisdiction to industries and pro-
vlding for a factory Inspector.
| Passage of the Brice ten hour act
for textile establishments.
Increase OF facilities at Winthrop
and the University of South Car
DINA.
J Passage Of anG-discrimination bill
torbidding underselling in certain
lines Of business.
In addition to these a number of
local acts we're passed.
The legislature took no action on
compulsory education or tax reform
and both may be expected to come
up again al the next session.

GLAD TO Be HOME.
Congressman Madison and Family Arrived
In Dodge City Last Night and Were Met
BY a Large Crowd.

When Congressman Madison ar
rived at the Santa Fe;depot late last
night, it looked like he would Lave to
stay on the train. The platform
space was ell taken up by friends and
neIghbors who had waited at the sta
ton until II o'clock to welcome the
Seventh District Representative and
bis family back to their home town.
No general arrangements had been
made for meeting the train, and it
was not known by many that Nr
Madison would arrive on No. B last
night. A number had inquired as
to when he would arrive, and We're
expecting to wait at the depot, and
during the evening others learned Of
the fact. The Dodge City band
voluntarily made its own arrange
ments for meeting the train, as each
party Of friends and neighbors Of the
Madlsons had done, and q long time
before the train was in there was an
imme.e croAd at the depot. The
train wasjnearly an hour late, and .he
crowd kept increasing during the
wait.
A short talk was made by Con-
gressuan Madison to the crowd he
said that it seemed good indeed to
get back home, and he wanted TO-
thank his old friends and neighbors
for the cordial reception he had re-
ceiyed. Speaking very briefly Of the
session Of congress just over, he said
he had tried earnestly TO represent
his district TO the fullest and best Of
his ability. Regarding the tariff bill,
be said that be would state frankly
that il was not all he had hoped in,
the way Of a revision downward. All
that he could do had been done to
secare a better one. Still, the bill
passed, be honestly and sincerely be-
lisyed was an improvement en- the
