for Jones' release on bond, stating that
bond in any sum could be furnished.
This motion for bail was refused by
Judge Hydrick after hearing not only
the defense side, but also that Of the
prosecution, which Is represented by
Circuit Solicitor T. S. Sease Of Spar
tanburg, Hon. ]. Ashby Sawyer and
Mr.. P. D. Barron Of this city. This
refusal Of bail from Judge Hydrick
came rather as a surprise to the gen.
eral public, but soon notice Of an ap-
peal to the supreme court was given
by the defense counsel. When the Sep
tember term of court convened, they
endeavored in different ways to have
the case continued, but the motions
were overruled and Jones was ar
ranged. Then the defense sprung a
surprise by producing an order from
Chief Justice E. J. Pope Of the state
supreme court, forbidding the case to
be tried until the appeal before the
supreme bench should be heard, which
could not be done until the latter part
Of November at earliest. This brought
the intended trial for which nearly two
hundred witnesses had been summon
ed to an abrupt termination. When the
case came before the state supreme
court in November, 1t was on two mo-
tions, one on the appeal from Judge
Hydrick's order refusing bail, and an
other on direct appeal for bail to the
supreme court. After the arguments,
the hearing was continued until sew
eral weeks later when 1t was resumed
and an order was then handed down
dismissing the application and refusing
bail, which was signed by two OF the
associate justices, Chief Justice Pope
dissenting. Jones was in attendance
at the hearing in Columbia in the GUS
tody of the sheriff and afterwards was
committed to the county jail here,
where he has been confined ever since.
AS to just when the case Will come up
here next week cannot be foretold,
though II the past tactics of the de-
tense are followed a strenuous effort
will be made for continuance, though
it is known that the prosecution will
vigorously oppose such action and en-
deavor to force the case to trial. All
in ALL this case will probably be one OF
the most sensationally contested trials
ever held in South Carolina, and al
ready wide spread interest is felt in 1t.

Again Declared a Leper.

Prominence has been given again to
the case of John Early, the suspected
leper who was detained as such by
the Washington authorities and later
delivered to New York, where he was
released from the hospital on the word
of DR.. Bulkley that he was not suf-
fering from leprosy, by report to the
Treasury Department from Consul
Johnson at Bergen, Norway. This is
to the effect that at the recent inter
national leprosy convention there DR..
Hanson, the discoverer of the leprosy
bacillus, asserted that he had found
the bacillus of leprosy in piece of
skin taken from the American soldier,
John Early, and which was sent to
him by Early's wife. This decision
from a man regarded as the foremost
authority tends to confirm The posi-
ton taken by the Washington health
authorities. After his dismissal from
the New York hospital Early was de-
prived of the pension for total disa-
bility which had been granted when
he became known as a leper

worked, the gypsy evangelist held the
great mass of people in check, and
finally, in the Alhambra Theater meet
ing, showed his perfect control over
an audience collected, as was this one,
from the most notorious dives in the
levee district.
The red light district did not take
the invasion seriously. Never before,
perhaps, in the annals of the district
were so many persons grouped in the
houses at one time. But the men and
women who marched and sang through
the ill-paved streets did not know that,
and their voices rose in a fervor OF re-
ligious enthusiasm, as though they
would convert the whole district by the
earnestness of their singing And be-
hind the drawn blinds, up at which the
marchers gazed with wonder and sor-
row and certain curiosity, the follow
ers of the life of joy laughed and
smoked and drank and scoffed.

DR.. Edward Everett Hale was a foe
to long sermons. He used to tell a
story of long-winded preacher and

Rabies Laid to strange Cause.

In Baluchistan even the wolves go
mad. In his book, The Frontiers of
Baluchistan," G. p. Tate writes: THE
shepherds give strange reason for
the epidemic of rabies According to
them it was caused by the wild beasts
eating dead larks. In some years,
they said the larks develop extraordi-
nary vitality and pour forth such a
flood of songs as they rise on the wing
that they become suffocated and fall
to the ground dead. A wild animal
which eats one of those dead birds in
fallibly develops rabies. This is a
widespread superstition and seems not
unfamiliar to the natives of India who
were with me-

UNSUCCESSFUL BANK RAID.
Lone Robber Dies by Own Hand
When Run to Cover.

A lone robber, going about his bust
ness in borrowed automobile driven
by chauffeur who says he was ignor-
ant of the part it was intended he
should play in the crime, Wednesday
walked into the D. NJ Erskine & Co.
bank, at Highland Park, H., herded
the employees into an iron cage at the
point of a pistol. gathered up SAT-
from the cash drawer and got outside
of the building with his plumber. Then,
pursued by posse, when the rest of
his carefully laid plan failed him, he
ended his life when run to cover.
Failure of an automobile to start
compelled the robber to fee on foot
Meantime the whole community, a
fashionable one, had been aroused. and
a pursuit followed in which million
aires and street laborers jostled elbows
and snapped cartridges.
Hunted into an old building, the
bandit answered shots of his pursuers
by bullets from his own revolver, until
wounded and feeling himself about to
faint from loss of blood, he resolved
upon last dash for liberty.

think of entertaining at any place but
in her own home Now she goes to a
restaurant to save the trouble in the

when the hostess prided herself on
her own conversational powers and
upon her ability to draw out her
guests, who were generally chosen
with regard to some ability in this di-
rection. Now nobody talks, but some
body sings or plays and the concert
or rhetorical entertainment has taken
the place of brilliant conversation.
