Is candidate, of any political
faith, who will circulate a malicious
story in detriment to the character
and good name of another candidate,
worthy of the support of his fellow
man? First of all he should be sure
he has the facts to back up his
story, and even then it isn't gentle
manly to use them. Candidates are
free to use every honorable means
to gain their desires, but, a man who
will defame the name of an opposing
candidate simply to gain votes for
himself isn't a reliable man to place

and sentenced to serve four years on

CASES ALL SETTLED
Corporations Will Compl, With Inv

Nobody went to jail and nobody was
fined as a result of the four hearings
held yesterday before the State Corr
poration Commission, for alleged of
fenses against the corporation laws
OF the State. Compliance with the
statute and payment of the costs will
probably end all of them.
The Richmond, Urbanna and PENN
sula Railroad Company, charged with
failure to make the required report
as a concern not yet engaged in bust
ness, appeared through its secretary,
j. Taylor Robertson. The proper re-
port was rendered and accepted, and
aie case dismissed on payment of costs,

Samuel REGISTER, counsel, represented

road. The report, it was stated, had
been filed away by the secretary, who
did not know of the requirements OF
the law, and who thought no report
would be necessary until actual work
on the road was done. The paper will
be filed at once and tho payment of
costs will end the matter.
Foreign Concern Appears.
The Carolina Engineering Company,
which is building bridges in Virginia.
admitted through It's secretary, Mr..
Scott. that it was n foreign corpora

however, that the fault was uninten-
tional, being due to delays. a prom

to pay s25 entrance fee and $50 for
registration tax for the years 1905, 1909
and 1910, with other fees, which will
make the total about $50. The court,
II Is believed, will dismiss the case
IL this is done at once.
In the last case, that of the Eureka
Soapstone Corporation, a letter was
received from the attorney, asking
for a postponement. The commission

Forrest Hamilton. the roller skater
in charge of the skating rink in the
Coliseum this summer. has just re-
ceived the news concerning a nearly
fatal accident to his brother who is
appearing at Wheeling Park, Wheel
ing, West Virginia. Hamilton slides
down the chutes on roller skates and
just before he starts his clothing is
saturated with gasoline and set atire
and he dashes down the slide mass
of flames. On the night the accident
occurred Hamilton started down as
usual all aflame. When near the bot
tom his skates struck a nail, disturb
ing his balance and causing him to
alfght in the lake on his back. In this
position the contact of the water cauS-
ed the gasoline to come UP around his
neck, shutting off his breath and his
lungs Immediately filled with water.
1t was customary for him after he
had successfully accomplished the feat
to swim ashore, but this time he failed
to swim and a boat was soon put out
and he was brought to the shore in an
unconscious condition and carried to
his dressing room where he was
brought around all right after a ply
stefan had worked over him for about
an hour. Dare Devil Hamilton, as he
is called. says that he will continue
his performances and that while this
was perhaps the narrowest escape he
has had it is not the first one.
