TWO DISTRICTS PROPOSED.
Representative Aiken Introduces Bill
for Two Federal Judges.

Washington, May 29.-If the plans
of Representative Aiken are carried
out, South Carolina will soon be di-
vided into two Judicial districts, with
I. new Federal judge for one of the
districts.
Mr.. Aiken has introduced a bill
to this effect, and If the committee to
which it has been referred reports
favorably and Congress passes the
bill, it will be up to the President to
name the new Judge.
y The new, or Western, district
would include the counties of Oco-
nee, Pickens, Anderson, Greenville,
Spartanburg, Laurens, Abbeville,
Greenwood, Edgefield, Saluda New
berry, Union, Cherokee, Chester, Ian
caster and Fairfield. All the other
counties in the State would remain
in the old district. There would
also be separate court officials, con-
sisting of a district attorney, clerk
etc.. in each district. @
members Of the South Carolina dele
cation to pass this bill two or three
years ago are well remembered. Had
it not been for the persistent zeal of
some Of the members in fighting for
towns in their respective districts the
measure would probably have been
a law long ago. The rock upon
which the scheme was dashed and
broken to pieces three years ago ap-
peared when 1t came to the question
of authorizing the courts to be held
at Greenville, Spartanburg, Rock
Hill. Chester and Greenwood. These
1 towns, through their representatives
'Gn Congress, fought bitterly. but
without success, the whole matter
finally dying because they could not
reconcile their differences. Every
member of Congress from South
Carolina who was in any way inter-
ested in'the matter contended for the
interests of his district, and Senator
Latimer was one of the strongest
supporters Of the proposition to make
Greenwood one of the court towns.
The conference got the bill after it
had been passed by both the House
and Senate, but so vigorously was
the fight kept up that the 57th Con-
gress came to an end with nothing
done.

"SrUNG!" AND STUNG PROPER
Brewer Can't Recover from Hotel
Where Mule was Stung.
(Atlanta Journal, 14ihD

(Atlanta Journal, 14ih)
S. T. Brewer drove up to the hotel
of j. NJ. Carswell, at Hinesville,
down in Liberty county, not long
ago, unhitched his mule, left his
buggy standing in tie. farm lot, tied
the animal, and went off into the
town.
A few hours later he came back,
to find the mule frantic, knottod with
bee stings and still fighting for free
dom from the persistence Of a few
of the insects that had not lad their
turn.
Brewer gave his attention to doc
toring the mule, missed his own din
nor, got no feed for the mule on ac-
count OF the late hour Of starting
back home, and left without paying
anything to the hotel.
The mule died that afternoon from
the effects of his singing. Brewer
brought suit against Carswell for
damages covering the value of the
mule, under the statute making ho-
tells responsible for man and boast
sheltered by them.
The lower court dismissed the case
on motion for non-suit. The SUI
preme Court, in decision handed
down Wednesday, sustains the lower
court.

bugler:
HAS it ever occurred to you, Mr.
Chairman, that the cotton cloth made
in South Carolina annually would
make sheet big enough to cover
the entire face of America and Eu-
rope and lop over on the toes of
Asia? Or, if all the cattle raised in
each year were one COW, she could
browse on the tropical vegetation
along the equator, while her tail
switched icicles off the North Pole,
and that her milk could float a ship
load of her butter and cheese from
Charleston to New York? Or, if all
the mules that are marketed each
year were one mule, it would con-
sumo the entire annual corn crop of
North Carolina at one meal, and
kick the spots off the sun without
swelling it's sides or shaking its tail?
Or, if the hogs we raise annually
were one hog, that animal would dig
the Panama Canal in three roots,
without grunting, and it's squeak
would be loud enough to jar the CO.

MAKES A VALUABLE DISCOVERY
To Put Up Vegetables without Use
OF Preservatiyes.

Washington, May 27.-Congress-
man A. f. Levers desk In his Office
is literally filed with cans of beans,
beets, squash, etc., world without
end. This comes of the fact that
he Is / member of the committee on
agriculture and is the chief cham
pion of the strict enforcement of the
pure food and drugs law and of the
idea that preserving powders and the
like are unnecessary in the canning
business. The department of agri-
culture has just issued bulletin,
giving very ample method by which
all fruits and vegetables may be
canned in the farm home and kept
through winter, and this is to be
done without the use of preserva-
tires. The cans and jars on Mr..
Levers desk represent the efforts of
the department of agriculture to con-
vince him that it's method is not
only ample, but effective. He is
thoroughly convinced. The process
for preserving is the work of Frank
BreaZeale, an Anderson boy, and a
graduate of Clemson College, who
has been in the department Of agri-
culture for, several years and who
has made good. BreaZeale is a con-
firmed dyspeptic-as lean and ca
daverous in appearance as the Con-
gresham whom he is interesting in
his work. He is yegetarian--as
much so as Senator LaFollette, who
is also greatly interested in his pro-
cess. 1t is because of the fact that
he is vegetarian that he has fallen
upon this plan of preserving fruits
and vegetables.
The only thing in it is glass jar
and an ordinary tin can or clothes
beans, okra-in fact, all vegetables
may be kept with their original
color and flavor. The method con-
sists of steaming the fruit or vege-
table in closed vessel for one hour
each on three successive, days, this
completely steriliZing it, killing all
germs and other things. The cause
of decomposition is germ or bac-
terra, and as soon as these are de-
stroyed the vegetables will keep in
definitely. The adoption Of this
method not 'oAly leaves no excuse for
the use or preserving powders,
against which Mr.. Lever and DR.. Wi
ley have fought hard during the re-
cent session of Congress, and which
are undoubtedly harmful in their eff
fects up infants and invalids, and
are used to cover up unSanitary and
unclean methods and cheap and rot
ten materials; but it enables the
housewife to make use of every veg
etable raised in her garden and of
all the fruit from her orchard, and
the expense is practically nothing.
The department has issued a bulle-
tin, being simple in it's .get-up, and
these may be had by applying to
members of Congress. 1t is Farmers
Bulletin, No. $50. Mr.. Lever has
been allotted 1900 of these, and
any one who is interested in his cru
sade for pure food may have one by
writing him a postal card asking for
the same. .. 80

DEAD MAN HAD NO BRAIN.
Scratch, Too, Was Only Sign of Frac
tured Skull.

A special from Cincinnati to the
Philadelphia Record says: Physi-
clans at the city hospital pnd the
coroner's Office are mystified over
the case Of Joseph S. Ossenbeck, "a
years old, upon whose body a post
mortem examination was made Mon
day. Except for a very Slight abra-
sion of the skin on his forehead
there was not a scratch on the entire
body, yet it was found that the left
side of Ossenbeck's skull was frac-
tured, and there were several hem
orrhages of he brain.
What puzzles the physicians, how
ever, is that the brain is gone, leav-
ing large cavity in the Skull, yet
there is no opening in the skull.
Ossenbeck when taken to the hos
pital was said to be suffering from
epilepsy.

SURETY COMPANY MUST PAY.
Supreme Court Hands Down an I'm.
pOrtant Decision.
(News and Courier. J

The Supreme Court has handed
down very important decision af-
firming the decision Of the lower
court in the case of the Greenville-
Carolina Power Company, respond
ent, VS.. the United States Fidelity
and Guaranty Company, which
means that the surety company will
have to pay the amount sued for
$50, ,OOO-having entered upon the
bond of John f. Grandy G. Son, con-
tractors. The issues in the case were
first heard before Judge Hydrick,
who decided in favor of the power
company, rendering judgment against
the surety company for $25, 900, and
the Supreme Court upheld Judge Hy-
bricks decision.
The complaint in the case alleges
that the Saluda River Power Com
pany was incorporated under an act
and were authorized to build a dam
across the Saluda river in Pickens
and Saluda counties, and operate a
power plant. The charter was sub
Sequently changed and the name of
the power company became Green
Vile Carolina Power Company.
The John T.. Candy Company was
10 do all the work and provide all
Cie nlateTlal LOT the construction on
Saluda river of masonry dam, hav-
ing a clear. rollway of about 275 feet
long and 4 height Of SO feet above
the normal river bed, and also for
other construction work. The Fed
eral Construction Company had
agreed to pay the Gra' dy Company
$4,000 for this work. The Grandy
Company, it is alleged, stopped work
in December, 1905. The Federal
Construction Company had then to
make arrangements with another
concern for this construction work
and that the cost for completing the
work, together with the amounts that
had been paid the Grandy Company
exceeded the original contrast price
by more than $4,000.
1t was for this amount that the
suit was brought and recovery OBJ

ST. Matthews, May 29.--A county
seat is never lacking in interesting
and sometimes sensational legal
suits. DR.. l.. NJ. Able rented one or
his stores to Mr.. Joe Hanna last fall.
The latter sub-rented to his brother
in-law, John Alexander. The rent
was promptly paid, II appears, but
early in April, Mr.. Alexander issued
fiaring advertisements of "quick
sales and Short profits" DR.. Able
suspected that Mr.. Alexander was
preparing to leave and levied for
rent, which was not due till the last
of April. Alexander brought suit in
the Magistrates Court, which result
ed in Alexander's favor. An appeal
was taken to the Circuit Court, and
Judge Watts referred it back to the
Magistrate on an error. In the
meantime, Dr.. Able drew the door
staple of the store and removed, it is
alleged, part of the goods.
The attorneys of Alexander then
paid all costs of the Magistrates
case, quashed the case and served
papers yesterday on DR.. Able in the
sum of $4,000 damages for forcibly
removing the goods from the store
The case VIII be fought out III the
