A FANATIC CALLED DOWN.
He Said That No VirtuOus Woman
Would Attend Dance.

R. L. Page, Jr., who edits week
ly paper at Quitman, Mass, several
days since had a scathing editorial
upon a dance of prominent society
folk there, in which he called the
dancing public hugging," and init
mated that no virtuous woman would
indulge in such practices. Page has
been out of the city for several days.
He returned Wednesday morning,
was met by a group of prominent
citizens, forced to eat clipping of
the editorial, and was then, taken in
charge by a constantly increasing
crowd. Page managed to escape his
assailants and started to running, ap-
parently making good his escape, al
though many threats had been made
as to what his fate would be.

Election in Florida.

Jacksonville, Fla, May 16.-Com-
plete unofficial returns from the State
primary give Senator Taliaferro, who
is running for reelection, 21,045, N.
D. Broward 21,01S, and Claude
L'Engle 1850. For congress, S. M.
sparkman was nominated without
opposition. Frank Clarke defeated
his opponent by large majority, and
N. H. Mays will be returned to con-
gress by a safe majority. The Off
cial count will be made on May "a.
A second primary will be necessary
for United States senator and will be
held on June Z.
The race between Senator Talia-
ferro and ex-Gov. Broward is the
closest ever encountered in the poll
tics of the State of Florida, only 27
votes separating the two. The second
primary is expected to be one of the
hardest fought in the States history.

A FOOL FOR A CLIENT.
Prisoner, Who Acted as Own Lawyer,
Moved to Arrest Judge.

The Atlanta Journal says Judge
Andrew Calhoun's court was paraly.
zed with astonishmept Friday morn
ing by Frank Pierce, young white
man charged with violating the pro-
hibition law, when he snatched the
conduct of his case from the lawyer
appointed to defend him, and read
long list of motions drawn up by
himself which contained, among 9th
ers, one to arrest judgment by hav'
ing Sheriff Magnum take the court in
custody.
Attorney R. R. Shropshire, the
lawyer appointed was busy striking
the jury, when Pierce arose and got
the attention of the court:
"If your honor please said he
'T don't like the way that lawyer
is handling my case. So I've drawn
up some motions and exceptions
which I want to read. 1 tried to gel
my lawyer to do it, but he intimated
that I was crazy"
Being in his usual good humor
Judge Calhoun permitted Pierce to
read his motions.
They were wonders. It is probable
they will go down in the annals OF
the criminal court of Atlanta-this
being the full entitlement Of Judge
Calhoun's division-without peer OF
parallel. When the court room re-
covered from it's astonishment it sat
up and began to take notice. Then
it leaned back and laughed. Which
not in the least perturbed the prison.
er at the bar. He just kept on read
ing.
Under motion No. 1 he submitted
that his trial was unconstitutional
on the ground of former jeopardy.
"I was tried and convicted before
Recorder Broyles--though not really
guilty of selling whiskey," he read
"and I served 80 days in the stock
ade. THEREFORE, under the constitu-
ton of the United States I cannot
lawfully be tried again for the same
alleged offense."
Motion No. q contained the asser-
ton that the detectives who arrested
Pierce had intimated that Justice Cal
houn had said he would give Pierce
the limit, if the evidence warranted
conviction. Therefore, 1 submit
your honor that you are incompetent
to try my case," read Pierce, "same
as juror would have no right to
serve if he had previously expressed
an opinion"
Under motion No. 3 Pierce re-

Didn't Fish on Sunday.

In West Philadelphia home pre-
cocious boy of eight years created
CONSERVATION by an Ill-timed remark
in front of the family pastor who had
been invited to dine, says the Phila-
delphia Times.
+ The balmy spring weather turned
the conversation to things out OF
doors and both the rector and his
host, being devoted to fishing as a
pasttime were regaling themselves
with fish" stories.
Johnny couldn't get word in edge
wise for the hum of conversation, but
managed after a while to squeeze in
a little line of talk which got him
into trouble after the minister had
gone.
The minister, seeeing the boy so in
terested and thinking to score point,
said:
> "You never go fishing on Sunday,
- g
do you Johnny"
"Oh, no SIR" the reply.
evil you tell me now why you
don't go fishing on Sunday?"
Because dad won't take me
along" answered the boy triumphant
ly.
That night the boy got a spanking.

Double Tracking the Road.

Florence, May ia large force
of hands has been put on the double
tracking, of the Coast Line from this
point to the Pee Dee river, and the
work will be pushed with all possible
speed. That small stretch of road
carries train every 10 minutes Of
the day and night, and is overworked.
and congestion is frequently OCCASION
ed. The double track will be great
relief to the railroad men. The trestle
will be the only part of the road not
double tracked. That will be worked
on the block sytem.

quested the court to appoint another
lawyer to defend him. 81 have tried
to get Mr.. Shropshire to conduct this
case as I think it should be- he
read, "and he won't comply with my
wishes in the matter. Therefore,
want Lawyer Frank Haralson to de-
fend me-"
Then followed what Pierce evil
dently intended to be a bill OF
exceptions. The wording of his con-
Guiding paragraph bore faint re-
semblance to the familiar phraseol-
ogy of legal documents. He pro-
tested against the judgment of the
court, and moved the arrest thereof
by placing Judge Calhoun in custo-
dy- in order to give him time Ito
institute habeas corpus proceedings
in the United States court"
AS Pierce finished his paper Law
yer Shropshire rose to inform the
court that if the defendant was 60
ing to handle his case he would re-
tire. To which the court readily
agreed; and thereupon turned to
Pierce.
"It is evident you have smatter-
ing knowledge of law" said the
court. "But your method of con-
Quoting your case is somewhat mix
ed up. For instance, you cannot ar
restjudgment, because none has been
rendered yet. And your idea of TAX
ing your case to the United States
supreme court is sort Of hop, skip
and jump. You can't leap that far
