cision was made public. Cook left
New York later to escape cOntumely,
says Mrs. Cook, and to go before the
board of inquiry at Copenhagen as his
own representative. Then Mrs. Cook
followed him, met him in England,
found him a nervous wreck and very
ill. She writes that it was her fault
that Cook did not appear publicly
at the time he was unfavorably re-
ported on. She says she took him to
Holland, France. Italy and then to
Spain, where they embarked for
Buenos Ayres. From Buenos Ayres
they went around Cape Horn to Chile.
Cook is still very i'll and will be in no
condition to take up his fight for the
honors which ne still says should
have been his" DR.. AXtell added,
that according to the letter, the eX-
plorer and his family will arrive quiet
ly i'm New York and will settle down
for a quiet life. Mrs. Cook says he
continued, that her husband has no
funds with which to go to the arctic
regions after the proofs required by
the University of Copenhagen, and
that If he had the necessary cash, he
knows of no one he could trust to dc
the work for him."

of the most absorbingly interesting
that we have printed for years.
Although it is an unusually busy
time with the farmers, there has been
an unusually large number of ladies in
Yorkville this week from the country,
on account of the millinery openings.
The like has never been seen mere be-
fore Many of them came during Tues
day. and stopped over with friends in
order that they might be present at
the raising Of the curtain, and help
swell the crowds, that made up the
first nights attendance. Others came
Wednesday, yesterday and today.
There is no question of the fact that
the openings have brought crowds. and
better than that. everybody seems to
think they have gotten what they
have come after.

THAT is a novel experiment that Mr..
Henry Caldwell of Spartanburs Is
making, that idea of breaking up corn
land with dynamite, and it will be
watched with great interest How 1t
is going to turn out, We confess that
we have no idea, and we shall not at
tempt to predict. There are those
who think that the deep breaking up
of land in the spring is fatal to good
crop the same season; but are of
opinion that the result will be benefi-
cial later on. There is a commonly ac-
cepted theory that bacteria is one of
the most important, and an absolutely
essential requisite to the production of
good crops. The experts assert as a
fact that lightning kills the bacteria in
the ground surrounding, wherever 1t
strikes. We have an idea tnat this
killing is due to the intense heat as
we'll as to the shock. The explosion
Of dynamite would be accompanied by
both heat and shock, but it may affect
the bacteria adversely. OF course, also
there may be bad effects from the
turning up of too much clay subsoil
at this season. But, however all this
may be, we do not want to be under
stood as suggesting any unfavorable
criticism of Mr.. Caldwell, whether his
crop is a good one or not, we admire
the originality of mis- experiment, and
we think he is entitled to applause for
trying to do something.

THE esteemed Yorkvile Enquirer
should not get excited over the matter
of that Glover correspondent. The
Record is willing to take The Enqui-
rer's word: and, as a matter of fact,
the Record did not throw any doubt. 1t
seems to us that there is such thing
as too much explanation. Anyhow, the
Records editor never expects to see
$50 bill, much less have sufticiency OF
them to put one up. Editor GrlSt
will please attend to his knitting and
tell us why the county gang IS nearly
always monopoliZed by the western
end of the cOunty.-Rock Hill Record.
We are satisfied with the Records
declaration that 1t is willing tn take
The Enquirers word, and have no de-
sire for it to put up $50, or any other
amount The proposed forfeit was
merely suggested to ensure good faith
1t is a common, though not invtoable
rule among newspapers not to give the
names of the authors Of common nom
de plume communications. without
good reason. 1t is q fact that editors
sometimes write such communications
themselves, and some editors mold that
they have q perfect right To do SO. 1t
happens that the writer of the COM
munication under consideration now,
is perfectly willing to give his name.
However, we have not felt inclin-
ed to allow ourselves to be forced to
give his name through 4 mere inSinua"
ton like that made in the Herald, and
which seemed to be backed up by the
Record. And neither did we care to
leave our contemporaries in position
where either they, or any of their
readers could claim that they had
showed the communication to have
been written by us. As to the Records
request for us to tell why the county
gang is nearly always mOnopoliZ"d by
the western end of the county" we beg
leave to suggest that we are not run

tried to run it We hav" always left it

We do not pretend to speak for the

we are not aware of the fact. The
only point We have seen in this con-
trOversy, was whether or not there il
such contract as has been alleged.

YORKVILLE. s. c.,
FRIDAY, MARCH 25, 1910.

THE house of representatives has
passed a bill that proposes to appro-
pirate the sum of 100000 with which
to raise the battleship Maine from Ha-
vana harbor. The idea is to recover
the bodies of the some seventy or eiSh-
ty sailors, who went down with the
wreck and to determine definitely
whether the explosion that sunk the
vessel, came from the outside or the
inside. The work of raising the wreck
is to be done by the engineer corps of
the army, provided the Cuban govern
ment is willing. There has been a
strong feeling ever since the occur
ance of the disaster, that the wreck
should be raised; but a great many
people in this country have been more
or less doubtful as to the story that
might be told of a view of the bottom
of the ship.

- Batesburg, March "a: Clinton Rho
den, merchant of this place, was
shot and instantly killed at l o'clock
this afternoon by w. b. Glenn, city
electrician. The shooting occurred on
the principal street of BatesburS,
which was crowded at the time. Glenn
surrendered and was taken to Jail at
Lexington. There had been bad feel
ing between the two men for some
time AS Glenn was going along the
street past Rhoden's store the latter
called to him. Glenn answered, IF you
want me. you can come out here for
me-" RhOden then left his store and
went toward Glenn. A few moments
conversation ensued. and then Rhoden
was seen to strike Glenn. Several
blows passed. and then Glenn drew a
pistol and fired four shots at RhOden
The first went wild, but the next three
took deadly effect. The first effective
shot entered under Rhodcn'S chin and
passed through the neck under the
left ear The second severed the right
jugular vein and penetrated the brain.
The last bullet entered under the left
arm, and plOwed its way through the
body, going just under the heart and
penetrating the left lung. 1t was af-
terwards found just to the right of the
breaSt-DOnc. onN one Ol tne SIlotS
would have proved fatal. At the coro-
ner's inquest two witnesses testified
that Rhodcn had put his hand behind
him, as if to draw a pistol, just before
Glenn opened fire. The curon"r's jury
brought in the customary verdict that
Rhoden came to his death by gunshot
wound at the hands of Glenn" Rhudcn
was about 50 years old. He is survived
by his wife and five children. Glenn.
who is about the same age, also has
wife and five children.

- Chester Lantern: The coroner's
jury. after two-dayS' exhaustive and
searching investigation into the myS-
terry surrounding the disappearance
of George Hemphill. colOrcd. of the
Wellridge community. adjourned Sat
urday evening until next Saturday. the
Goth inst. when the inquiry Will be
resumed. The circumstantial evil
dence points strongly to the wife
of Hemphill as guilty of the murder
and burning of her husband. That
she was aided and abetted by crowd
of negro men is strongly winkcd at
in the evidence. This is the theory
of the prosecution and To establish
this theory every StOn" H. being up
turned. The prOberS will go to the
bottom and all the mystery cleared
up before the inquiry is completed,
But justice will be done. There Is
no desire To punish IN innocent party
and the negro women and the two
men i'm Jail will have all the chance
they could desire To let the true facts
in the case be known. The wife of
George holds the key tn tn" mystery.
She was the last seen with him and
she refuses to talk. At the proper
time and place she will have the priv
ilcgp of going on the stand and tell
ing what she knows. M"anwhil" the
probing will continue and the guilty
brought To justice.
