Charleston is famous, in which en-.
tertainment the editor of The News
and Courier was naturally conspic.
uous, owing not so much to his po
sition as to his own pleasing and
cordial personality. But this Can
aer and Hen incident seemed to have
been an especial bond Of union
Twice since he was elected presi-
dent, Mr.. Taft mas visited Charles
ton, and Major Hemphill has visit
the President in Washington,
their friendship being at each meet
ing intensified.
THE Gander and Hen incident,
you understand, was a joke. Mr.
Taft likes a joke and he likes a man
who gets off a good one. But the
president is not all joke. That
campaign 'lst fall wasn't any joke.
He meant business, and at one time
Mr.. Bryan was pushing him so close
and the Middle West as we'll as
New York showed such signs of Re-
publican disintegration that he got
all vexified, as it were. 1t has al
ways been an idea with him ever
since he entered politics, which was
when he became candidate for pres
ient, you understand, that he was
the man of Destiny to break up the
Solid South. And he wanted 70
90 into the South during that caHre
paign to convert the stiffnecked peo-
pie, aud would have done 30 but
for this dangerous threat OF the
Middle West and New York. But
all the time he was looking about In
the South, watching it very close
ly. He had certain lieutenants, pulse
feelers, to report to him what men
in the South coulo be of assistance
to him in furnishing information
about conditions. Among these was
j. C. Hemphill in South Carolina.
1t is not believed that he called on
these men for assistance, but it is
positively known that he had his eye
on them, and considered them as
not so hostile as their papers might
have indicated to those who did not
read between the lines.
whether he has Major Hemphil'
on his list of eligibles with the hope
OF assistance in breaking up the
Scli1 South or not can be but mat
ter of surmise. It Is certain that
he consults the Major about appoint
ments. and that the Major. whether
consulted or not, sometimes gives
his advice This he did few days
ago in the con1i 'acy OF his cousin,

When finally a big sea dashed the
men from the perches and took the
mast with it. Spearing remained in
the water fully ffteon minutes be-
fore he came to big part of the
wreckage which he at first thought
was a shark. He hung on to the
floating timbers with might and
main until the next morning.
Spearing says the schooner left
Brunswick on Thursday last. The
vessel hailed from Providence, R.
l., but had sailed from Boston to
Brunswick. He did not know the
captains name and had only been
with the ship for little over three
weeks. He Joined the ship at Bos-
ton
The crew consisted of the captain,
TWO mates, an engineer and a steward
and six seamen and the captains
wife. Spearing said that his home
is Cambridge. Hants county, Novia
Scotia. He Is 33 years Of age and
unmarried.
Spearing was floating on the
wreckage two or three miles from
the Shawmut when he was first
sighted, which was about "a miles
ncrth. northeast of Diamond Shoals
lightship. The catastrophe occurred
It Wimble Shoals, about 25 miles
nr-tN or Care Hatteras.
Speqring sail that the vessel went
to pieces about Eve miles from
empt was made eight
or ten times to make RATS to put
the crew on so as to get to shore,
hut the high seas prevented. The
shore could just be seen owing to
the heavy fog.

DRUG STORE WRECKED
IN ATLANTA BY THE EXPLOSION
OF FIREWORKS.
Two Persons Badly Burned and the
Interior Of the Store and Stock


Interior Of the Store and Stock
Ruined.
The Atlanta Journal says as
result Of the sudden and entirely
unexpected explosion of a quantity
of Christmas fireworks in the w.
R. Fuller pharmacy, 470 Pryo:
street, Tuesday evening at 1920
o'clock, Arthur Kagle, the young
soda dispenser, now lies at the Gra-
dy hospital at the point OF death
from burns received; DR.. Fuller ,s
badly burned about the face, han is
and body and the pharmacy Is a TO-
tai wreck.
At The time Of the explosion Or

new supply of fireworks that had
come il during the day and We're
utterly ignorant of any danger; hn1-

tinguish the fire in the stove i've

firecrackers, and dynamite caps. ex-
ploded young Kagel was blown ten
feet against the top Of the store
and came down in the very midst CT
the burning missiles. DR.. Fuller
had gone to the cash register il an
adjoining room to ring up tht. sac
of cigar when he was Jared by
the ignition of the fireworks. Though
he was many feet away be WAS
blown ten feet through space against
the soda tount and badly burned
by The flying explosives before ne
could escape.
After his fight to the ceiling and
back, young Kagel was SO badly bli i'd
Ell that it took him ten minutes 10
slght his way out Of the DI,pmg
prescription room. Finally finding
the door he made a dash for the
street and ran up and down The
sidewalk like a mad man, with his
clothing ablaze. He was so baily
frightened by the flames and ourns
he hal received that it was with
difficulty that W. S. Matthews chas-
ed him down and held him unti:
his burning clothes could be remov-
ed.
The pharmacy looks as if a cyclone
had struck it with all its force. The
front doors were torn from their
hinges, all window panes shattered,
show cases demolished, soda foun-
tain ruined and the building badly
damaged by FIRE. The prescription
room Is total wreck, where the fire.
works were being opened. There
is nothing to it at all. The many
bottles of powder and liquids were
sprinkled all over the floor and every
bottle broken into bits.

Capt. Loose Brands His Own Statement
About Dr.. Cook a Lie.
WAS OUT FOR THE MONEY
Maker of Sworn Statement That
He Had Prepared Cooks Obser-
vations for Him Has Confessed
That the Story Was Prepared
Without Regard to Truth.

Capt. B. S. Osborn. of New Yae&,
secretary of the Arctic Clno. has
written Capt. Joseph E. Bernier and
others that Capt. August w. L1oss's
story of his dealings with DR.. Cook.
as published in a New York news
paper, was concocted for sale, with
out regard to the truth.
In the presence of witnesses"
said Capt. Osborn, II heard Loose
say, I was out for the money, and
l don't care how ! get 1t. %
Capt. Osborn does not believe that
Looses narrative, as supported By
his affidavits, was part of any plot
20 discredit DR.. Cook.
"The idea originated with Loose
and Dunkle," says Capt Osborn.
They had for sale matter In this
controversy SO explosive that nobody
dared handle it. When they found
that out they cast about for some
thing else. Dunkle was the promot-
er, Loose the workman.
ALSO Dunkle got most OF the
money. That's what Loose says, and
now he is casting around to see
where he stands. He's got con-
science, and 1t smarts.
y wrote these facts In private
letters to Capt. Bernier and others,
and their premature publication is
a mistake, and may spoil what would
have been complete documentary
proof Of my assertion, sworn to be-
fore a notary.
Loose had an appointment to
sign a confession, which has al
ready been drawn up. He did not
appear, and now he has just twenty
four hours grace. II he does not
sign very shortly the substance Of
the confession will then be printed
from notes of conversations on which
it Is based"
Capt. Osborn was not al liberty
to name the person who had obtain
ed and drafted the confession.
"a ship owner he designated
him, "a former employer of Loose
and man who has personal infu-
ence with him."
How did this man prevail on
Loose to confess" was asked.
He told Loose straight out"
said the captain, that Loose was
playing checkers with his own
nose."
Capt. Osborn does not deny that
DR.. Cook and Loose had business
'ealings, and that money passed
between them. But he said:
II know enough shipm ates of the
doctors who went into the Antare-
tic with him to be sure the doctor
needed nobody to fabricate observa-
tions for him. No doubt he set
problems for Loose, by which to
check his own calculations"
Neither Loose or Dunkle could ho

Thirty-Eieht Years.

Friday evening James M. Proc
tor Jr., celebrated his thirty-eight
natal day and in so doing his wife
has gained the enviable reputation
of serving the most elaborate, the
most exquisitly perfect s o'clock
dinner in the history of the city.
The friends present were: John
j. Rogers, Edgar A. Thompson,
James L. Lyon, Mark C. Hawkins.
Alex Nelson, j. H., J. B. and Jasper
McClintic, B. o. Wood, DR.. w. B. A.
McNutt, Jno L. Owen, j. S. Con-
way, M. B. Proctor, C. M. Sullivan,
Aaron Boulware and W. B. Arnold
Jim Lyon has been grumbling
ever since, because he had the
toothache so he could not eat his
full capacity. The boys say: W.
B. Arnold has no limit to his capac-
ity and that all of us rode Dan
Patch that night for no night mare
could have gone over the road so
fast.
Jim is one of those exceedingly
fortunate fellows for his lines are
cast in pleasant places. He has a
nice home, nicer wife, pretty chill
dren and a jolly nature.

The Two Kinds of Sport.

It's a beautiful morning" a sports
man said;
The world looks so happy let's
each take a gun,
Go out and kill something for
pastime and fun,
And proudest be him who counts
the most dead"
They blotted out lives that were
happy and good;
Blinded eyes, and broke wings
that delighted to soar.
They killed for mere pleasure and
crippled and tore,
Regardless of aught but the hunger
for blood.
" 'Tis beautiful morning." a sports
man cried,
Who carried a kodak instead of a
gun;
The worlds looks as happy, so
golden the sun,
I'll slip to the woods where the wild
things hide"
The deer that he shot" never
dreamed of his aim,
Yet the bird that he caught went
on with her song.
Peace followed his footsteps, not
slaughter and wrong,
Yet rich were his trophies" and
varied his game"
