Trespassers in Trouble.

TIE railroad commission has been
notified of two other accidents, both
on the Southern and both near
Branchville.
One of these was of rather out
of-the-ordinary nature, and may in
volve the death of one and possibly
two white men, who, according to the
railroad report, we're both trespass-
ers. The report says that on the
18th, w. C. Steady and Anton Demil
appropriated" a railroad velocipede
belonging to a Western Union line
man at work nearby, without the
linemans knowledge or consent" to
go home on, and that the machine
and pair were struck by freight
train before they got out Of the
Branchville yards. Steady was Sc
verely cut about the head and other
wise injured, while Demil had his
head "severely lacerated," his left
shoulder dislocated and his left side
crushed.

Love Leads Man to Prison.

Baltimore, Sept. l5.-For swear

heart in order to secure marriage

that she was Is years of age when
in fact she was scarcely Is.
The pair were married August 9
and later went to the home of the
girls mother. The latter, instead of
receiving the youthful couple with a
parental blessing, had the bride
groom arrested. His trial and con-

matter might be compromised, but
Mrs. Saylor, the girls mother, was
obdurate, and is said to have insisted
that the law be executed.

Dear Sirs:
For a number of years I have been
a great sufferer of rheumatism and
backache. About two months ago l
heard of Yarns Rheumatic Remedy
being fine, and sure cure for rheu-
matism and backache, and went to
the Wimberly Drug Co. at once and
got a bottle. 1 have taken two bot
ties, and am proud to say that am
just as clear of rheumatism and back
ache as 1 ever was. I am 62 years
old, and l consider this medicine
wonderful to cure a man at my age.
You, nor any one else, can recon-
mend it too highly.
I consider it a great blessing to
humanity that this remedy has been
discovered. I gained six pounds
while l was taking two bottles.
Yours respectfully,
A. H. BRUCE.

CASES WILL CAUSE SURPRISE.
Sensational Evidence to Appear Dur.
ing Dispensary Trials.

Columbia, Sept. 1.-THE evidence
which will be brought out in the
forthcoming dispensary graft trials
will be of startling nature. The sur
prise will not come so much from
the fact that there has been corrup-
ton in the management of the old
State dispensary; but it will be the
boldness and carelessness of the
States trusted agents and the whis-
key men, the latter SO used to deals
of this kind and who would naturally
be thought to do their work better
that will be the basis of the uneXpect-
ed in the trial of these cases.
Of course the prosecution is guard
ing it's case jealously, and only an
outline can be glimpsed by the best
positioned observers, but enough is
known to make the prediction safe
that in several of. the trials at least
very strong cases will be made out,
and it will not be surprising if there
are several convictions. And there
are also indications that several of
those under indictment are doing a
lot of quaking, where. up to recently
they did lot of laughing.
And the feeling in Columbia as to
the proba ability Of convictions is be-
ginning decidedly to change. For
some reason the feeling appears to
have prevailed here and elsewhere
over the State that the trials would
amount to very little so far as tan
gible results are concerned, and it
has been freely predicted that there
would not be a conviction in any of
the cases.
The State will push the prosecu-
ton as rapidly as possible, but not
even the Attorney Generals office
hopes to get to a trial of all OF the
cases.
Now it is practically promised
that the men under indictment will
have no monopoly in the business of
being defendants, and several other
sensational arrests are expected, but
these will be delayed for several
months yet. The evidence in the
trials about to take place will doubt
less make guessing as to who these
gentlemen will be easier. In this con-
nection it is pointed out that a GER
tain shining mark for prosecution
has been making frequent trips to
Atlanta during the past several
weeks, which circumstance fits in
with other facts pointing to his CIV
ing aid to the prosecution. The rea-
son why some three or four men have
not been indicted will likely be re-
vealed little later.

Murder is Suspected.

Georgetown, Sept. 1S.-It trans
pires that the white man who, about
three weeks ago was found dead in
the Sampit river, near the wharf of
the Waccamaw Steamboat company,
and supposed to have been drowned,
was one of party Of tourists from
Philadelphia, who arrived in this port
as passengers on the steamship Nava-
hoe, the day before the said event.
He was connected with the Pittsburg
Steel Works, of Pittsburg, Pa. He
was travelling for his health, which
had been failing for some time, and
had come here for the purpose of see
ing the old Harvest Moon. A letter
of inquiry has been received here by
the Clyde's officials from Mrs. Nor
rison, of Newark, n. j., seeking in
formation concerning this stranger,
stating she was one of the party Of
tourists, and wanted to know the
cause of his absence from the ship
when it sailed from this port.
1t is further ascertained that the
Wednesday night previous to his
death, he had roomed in the city with
a Mr.. Newman, who had been bar
Der at Rosemary, such was the infor-
nation given the captain on his
north-bound trip by Mr.. Newman,
who was then passenger going
North, and that the stranger had left
him next morning and said he must
tell the captain not to wait on him,
as he would meet him in Whining
ton, N. c., and not to be alarmed if
he did not sail with him from this
port.
This is said to be the last seen of
him until his body was found float
ing in the river next morning. The
captain states that the man had about
$50 or $50 in large wallet when he
first came aboard his snip, and the
presumption is now that he was kill
ed and thrown overheard, as his
throat was very purple when his body
was taken out of the water, evidenc-
ing that he had been strangled to
death.

Broom Gets Hearing.

Lancaster. Sept. 15.-Cecil Broom,
the young business man of Waxhaw,
y. c., charged with criminally as
saulting a young lady of the Van
Wyck section of this county, who
was recently captured in Atlanta and
brought here by Sheriff Hunter, had
preliminary hearing this afternoon
before Magistrate Caskey in the court
house. Several witnesses were ex-
amined, among them the young lady
herself.
The magistrate has not yet decid-
ed the matter, having the case still
under consideration. When the case
came up this afternoon some 200 or
800 people were in the court house,
but before the investigation began
all we're excluded except detectives
and witnesses. In addition to local
counsel several attorneys from North
Carolina were present. A court
official present said the State made
out weak case.

HORSEWHIPS A MAGISTRATE.
Crowd Sees Rancher's Wife Resent
Alleged Disparaging Remarks.

Los Angeles, Sept.1S.-For alleged
disparaging remarks touching her
character, Mrs. George Clark, wife of
a wealthy rancher of Antelope town
ship, publicly horsewhipped Justice of
the Peace o. S. Bulkley at Lancaster
Sunday morning. In the presence of
several hundred persons at the South
ern Pacific depot the indignant wo-
man diligently piled the lash until
restrained by constable. Details
of the whipping reached here to-day.
you're just the man I'm looking
for" was the greeting of Mrs. Clark
as she approached the Justice. Four
times she brought the lash down with
telling effect and each time it cut
across the judges face. Mrs. Clark
has not been arrested.

PASTOR OFFERS PRIZES.
Box of Candy for Woman Bringing
Two Men to Church.

Every young woman who takes
two young men to Sunday-school at
the Christian German Lutheran
church of Hazelton, Pa, next Sun
day will be awarded prize by the
pastor, Rev. J. o. Schlenker. The
prize will be a large box Of candy,
and he says he hopes he will have to
buy it by the wholesale.
There has been such large falling
off in the attendance of the young
men in the classes that Rev. Schlen-
ker determined some novel way must
be adopted of getting them to be
present, and he decided to use the in
fuence Of the young ladies of the
congregation. Many of them have
already said they would enter hearth
ly into the spirit of the plan and
would easily win the candy. Rev.
Schlenker does not say whether he
will continue the practice each Sun
day or not.

RICHARDS is UNCERTAIN.
Doubts the Propriety Of Pressing
Statewide Bill.

A Statewide prohibition bill might
get through the next legislature, and
Governor Ansel, although he was
elected on a local option platform and
has always recommended the contin'
uance of this policy in his annual
messages, will not only sign State
wide bill if it is passed but will vel
come it's passage, but, following his
custom he will take no part IN get
ting such an act through.
Still, a Statewide bill is going to
be doggedly disputed in the Senate,
where it got it's death blow last ses-
sion, and it is not going to have any
easy sailing in the house, where it
passed last spring by majority of IS
votes, on the motion to advance it
from second to third reading.
True. c. A. Smith and NJ. L. Smith
and others in TIE house, and particu-
larly the prohibition workers outside
of the house and senate. are elated
over the gains of prohibition this
summer and have announced thei1
determination to press forward for
State-wideism next spring, but there
are others, none the less prohibition
lists, who consider themselves bound
by the agreement. reached last spring,
whereby the present law got into
existence.
Representative John G. Richards,
Jr., the prohibition floor leader in the
house and author of the prohibition
bill which passed the house, has him
self undergone change of view. He
declined, when asked the direct Ques-
ton, to say what position he would
take. He said he was still as strong
a Statewide prohibitionist as ever,
but he has not made up his mind as
to the propriety of advocating State
wide prohibition in the present legis-
lature. True, he was not party to
the compromise of last spring, and
took occasion then several times to
warn the friends of the bill not to
enter into any agreement, that the
prohibitionists we're sure of success
finally and that they would be unwise
to step into this agreement trap laid
by the willy local option politicians.
Still he feels that it is possible he
might be regarded as geing bound by
this agreement to certain extent, in
asmuch as he along with other pro-
hibitionists is enjoying the fruits of
that compromise.-Columbi Record.

HIGHEST TOWN IN THE WORLD.
Mining Station Run by Americans Far
Up in the Andes.

Cerro de Pasco is the highest town
in the world. The remarkable broad
gauge railway by which it is reached
passes over higher ude-about
that of Mont Blanc-and there are
mining camps and Indian villages at
greater elevations. 1t is also true
that there are higher railway stations.
for on the Arequipa-Puno line the
station of Crucero Alton attalns the
stupendous elevation of 1860 feet;
but at l4,200 feet above the sea level
there is no other real town OF 5000
inhab bitants, with railway station,
telegraph, telephones, churches,
shops, clubs, hospitals and vice con-
suls. 1t is a wonderful example OF
American enterprise.
The section of the railway which
runs from Oroya to this town belongs
to the Cero de Pasco Mining COM
pany. and is extremely comfortable.
smooth running and fast, considering
the gradients. 1t passes through fine
grassy valleys grazed by countless
herds of lamas, and the blue sky, the
srarkling streams. the snow peaks,
combine with the green pastures to
give a delightful variety OF colors
which afford a striking contrast to
the uniform brown hue of the barren
Chilean Andes.
To get fair view of Cerro de Pas
co it is necessary to go to the top of
high rock near the railway station.
The town with it's little thatched
houses and narrow streets, lies in a
large undulating basin in which the
chief features are the tall chimneys
and other buildings belonging to the
mines. In the distance large lake
can be seen, and all around the hori-
zon is studded with snow capped
heights.
At our feet is a busy scene. The
useful Indian is everywhere-noW
driving herds of lames, the universal
mountain carrier, now riding mules
or driving small carriages over the
undulating roads-and all his busi-
ness is part of the great work OF ex-
tracing copper and silver from the
deep shafts. The rosy cheeks OF the
Indian children. whose healthy color
shines through their brown skin, is an
unusual sight in sallow South Ameri-
ca, for the climate is healthy and in
vigorating. In the winter there is a
great deal of rain and sleet, but the
summer is bright and crisp and all
the year round the temperature is
equable, one Of moderate cold in
which the thermometer seldom falls
much below freezing point.
Everything at Cero de Pasco is
run by the American. There is ?
spacious club where bowls are played
nightly, and in the hollow below there
is baseball ground. Both these
games are characteristically Ameri-
can; they are played at high pressure
the whole time; the biggest match
can be played in about in one and
half hours and the players are near
enough to the spectators to hear the
comments, encouraging or otherwise,
that are literally bestowed. The hos
pitality of the Americans is unbound
ed and the life is one of the utmost
good feeling and good fellowship.
The only drawback to the visitors
enjoyment is the soroche or noun
tain sickness, which is almost GER
tain to attack newcomer unless b.
ascends by very gentle stages.

SOUTHERN DAIRYING
Why 1t IS Unprohtable-l'he Same OBJ
servatior May Be Applied to Hogs.

The Winfield Union Banner says:
Dairying is undeveloped in the South
ern States largely because the farmers
Of that section do not understand how
to make it profitable They realize the
necessity Of more fertilizer for their
farms. and they are buying large guam
titles Of it at high prices They realize
too that barnyard manure is superior to
commercial fertilizer, but they do not
understand how to keep the cattle to
make The manure without sustaining
loss on the cattle
This is due principally to three
things: % The cattle now kept are as
rule inferior and could not be kept
probably under any circumstances. (2)
Many dairymen buy practically all their
feed instead of growing it, especially
those who live near the city and can get
a good price for their products CD The
dairyman who lives some distance from
the city and sells butter as rule makes
al inferior product. A very large per
cent of the diaries in the Southern
States are suffering from at least two
of these difficulties, and in many cases
from all three"
All of which can not be disputed Sue
cessfully, and may be applied to the hog
growing industry There can be no
profit in growing hogs mainly on mast,
or on the old system of root hog or
die" To be profitable the hog must be
of the improved breed, which when sup
piled with the necessary food, including
corn, will return its feed in good solid
form for market at the highest price.
An inferior hog is not profitable
