One of the most astounding passages
in the book reads as follows: But

that have no doubt that even men

the district school days, we learned the many
uses made of the deer by those people.
AS matter Of fact, the nearest approach
to the reindeer which we have on the east
side of the continent is the caribou and it IL
not domesticated at ALL A few reindeer, it is
true, were turned loose years ago in the New
foundland wilds and there are traditions of
their having been seen-traditions with about
as much basis Of truth as are the vague re-
ports OF camels in Death Valley; for Uncle
Sam, 1t Will be recalled, once attempted camel
transportation in the southwest, on the deserts
and when it failed he turned the animals out
to range.
DR.. Grenfell, however, has one difficulty to
meet in trying to replace the dogs with the
reindeer. The people here are used to tho
dogs and know just how to handle them The
reindeer is an unknown proposition and a
primitive people are always dubious ebout
such.
Moreover no reindeer can be put in use in
settlement until all the dogs Whereabouts arc
gone, for the dogs will scent deer miles
away and then the pack will go for It at once
Reindeer moss abounds here and on it they
can feed even through the snow. Up at St
Anthony's, where the doctors mission has
hospital, the 300 deer which he has had
brought there are fourishing.

NEGRO SUSPECT ARRESTED.
May Know Something About Murder
of DIR. Hickman.

Augusta, Ca, April "A negro,
James Mathis, is in the custody OF
the police tonight, held because it is
suspected that he has knowledge of
the assassination, in February, OF
DR.. c. w. Hickman. The negro to-
day went into the pawnshop OF Max
Tunkle, on upper Broad street. and
offered to pawn a watch. The clerk
to whom he applied for the loan,
when he saw the watch and appreci-
ated that it was a valuable time
piece, made an investigation. He
says he compared it with the num-
bers given as the numbers on
the watch DR.. Hickman had on
at the time of the murder,
which has been missing since
the murder, and he told the
newspaper reporters tonight that
the numbers corresponded. The
negro was gotten to the police bar
racks as quickly as possible. He is
there under sweating process at the
hands of the chief and his lieutenant.
The officers refuse to let reporters
interview the prisoner, and also re-
fuse to make any statment for pub
lication at this time.

Showing the Right Spirit.

How earnestly the need of a rail-
road from Bamberg to Ehrhardt Is
felt is illustrated by the remark OF a
prominent business man" to The
Bamberg Herald that che will give
500 to get the new railroad''-and
he does not mean that he will sub
scribe for stock of that amount, but
will make donation outright Of the
sum. This gentleman, 80 The Her
aid says, goes further and declares
that he will give twice as much as
any other man In Bamberg to get
the road.
The distance from Bamberg to
Ehrhardt is 16 miles and II the gen.
tleman quoted by The Herald Is rep
resentative of the prevailing senti-
ment about the undertaking, the road
will be built. It ought to be built.
This section of the country that 1t
would penetrate is too fertile and 1t
is inhabited by people too intelligent
and progressive to remain isolated.

Senate Digs Into Scandal.

Jackson, Miss, April 1.-The Mis-
sissippi senate delved deep into the
affairs of State Senator Theodore
Bilbo to-day. Continuing their in
vestigatioa of his alleged bribery at
the HANDS of L. G. Dulaney, the
Delta planter, and former member
of the legislature, his fellow legisla-
tors had Rilbo relate, first. the cir
cumstances of visit he is said to
have made to q questionable resort
in the hope of meeting Dulaney and
arranging the preliminaries Of the
vote sale. This occupied the morn
ing session.
In the afternoon Senator Letwich,
acting as cross-examiner, went back
to Bilbo's college days and asked If
it were not true that he was expelled
from a university for cheating at an
examination. The charge had been
preferred, Bilbo explained, but he was
exonerated. The witness admitted
that at one time he was charged with
the embezzlement Of small amounts
but subsequently the charge was
withdrawn. The questioning finally
drifted to legislation in which Bilbo
has taken a more or less prominent
part, but without the development
of material facts.
The senate was in session again
tonight behind locked doors.

SMALL GIRL WOUNDED.
Little Mary Connor, of McCormic, Ac-
cidentally Shot.

McCormic, April 3.-Mary Connor,
the ten-year-old daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. W. J. Connor, was accidentally
shot and seriously wounded Friday
by a school mate, Wyatt Chamber
lain, while on walk on the out
skirts Of the town.
Miss Lucille Conner, one Of the
high school teachers, at the request
of some of the pupils Of the sixth and
seventh grades, consented to chap
eron them. The party which she
chaperoned consisted Of girls from
these grades and few girls from the
fifth, one of whom was May Connor.
They went to nearby creek for an
afternoon of pleasure. While at the
creek they were approached by four
Of the boys Of the school, who had
a gun with them.
On the return trip, the supposedly
empty gun was fired, in some un-
known way, the whole load taking
effect in the little girls thigh. Drs.
Jennings and Mattison made a thor
ough diagnosis of the wound and de-
cided to carry her to Augusta to the
hospital for immediate attention. DR..
r. F. Jennings, the attending ply
sician accompanied her to Augusta
yesterday morning.

Bamberg Must Have Road.

The Bamberg correspondent OF
The State writes as follows Of the
railroad situation here:
Bamberg, April 2.-The question
OF extending the railroad from Ehr-
hardt to this point is assuming pro-
portions of interesting size. Bam-
berg is out to win the fight for the
road If it is to be built and that 1t
will be built is felt certain. A letter
has been received from prominent
citizen of Orangeburg which shows
the attitude towards the project as
viewed in that city. They state that
they are ready and able to cooperate
with the citizens of this community
In having the road built and are
ready to send q committee to confer
with q like committee. from Bam-
berg, which two committees will con-
fer with the people Of the Ehrhardt
section. The fact that the cham
bers of commerce Of Augusta, Co.
lumbia and other cities are looking
ct the scheme with so much favor,
leads one to the conclusion that the
Atlantic Coast Line road or some
other road will take up the work in
the near future. This read would
open up a section badly bottled up
at present.
The people of Bamberg are in
earnest about the matter. One prom
inent gentleman of this community
has offered to give his certified check
for $500 If the road is brought
here, and says that he will give twice
as much as as any other man for the
building Of the road. There are 9TH
ers here who think very much like
this man and are willing to bring
out the cash for the upbuilding OF
the town. ....
There has been something like
SIS, 200 spent for automobiles in this
town during the past 1S months. 1t
is believed that fully that amount
could be obtained for more perma-
nent investments here, such as the
railroad. In fact three years ago
stock for such road as Is now pro-
posed was subscribed to the amount
OF $4,000.
Bamberg wants the road and will
have it II it is to be built.

MANY IDLE sPINDLEs.
Greatest Curtailment Known Is Now
in Progress.

Boston, Mass, March 30.-Fifty
per cent. Of the spindles in Southern
cotton mills are idle, according to
statistics which have been assembled
by the American Wool and Cotton
Reporter.
The figures show that the curtail-
ment now in progress, not only in the
South, but in all sections Of the
country, both North and South, is
more extensive and drastic than has
ever been known in the history Of the
trade, even taking into considera-
ton the panic year of 1907. The
greatest curtailment comes among
the yarn mills, although restriction
of production among weaving mills
is greater than ever. before. Mill
after mill is closing down entirely
until new cotton arrives or market
conditions improve, while with the
majority of others the amount OF
curtailment varies from 20 to 100
per, cent. with many mills running on
orders only: The followingh are the
percentages Of spindles idle by
States:
Alabama SO per cent; South Caro-
lima 81; North Carolina 40; Georgia
80; Tennessee 80; Virginia 60; Mis-

The Boy Who is Most to be Pitied.

The very reading of the title sug-
gests the little fellow Of the street,
Who is knocked about and cuffed at
the place he calls home, and is dirty
and unkempt and untaught. Butts
he the most to be pitied, after all?
A successful business man was
talking frankly the other day to a
visitor. This business man had &C
cumulated money in abundance. But
he leaned over his desk weary,
heart-heavy man. To the visitor he
frankly confided that his older son
had gone wild; and then he said:
"And there Is my other boy, now
sixteen. Only a few days ago a
friend warned me that this boy was
going with a wild crowd. Where
upon I put down the names of the
boys he was going with, and find
that the crowd is made up of min
ister's son, q merchants son, ply
clans son-each man standing at the
very head Of his group in the city.
If those boys are not fit chums for my
boy, where on earth will I find fit
chums?" Ad the great body trem-
bled and the eyes filled with tears.
Mark it: This was not gang OF
friendless street boys, but group
of wealthy boys. And two nights
late the same visitor sat in the home
of one of the boys mentioned. The
telephone bell rang, the boy was
called to the instrument, and accept
ed an appointment to go to the the
atre with a chum, who should call
for him in his automobile. The boy
was fifteen years old. No word was
offered to the parents to to tell them
even of his destination, and they
asked for no information aside from
that they heard from the telephone
conversation.

that sowing! A wealthy boy Of that
type has not even a fighting chance
to come out all right. Pity the street
boy, we may, but, at least, he early
learns something Of the art of self
preservation, and it often pulls him
through. Not 80 with the pampered
wealthy boy. Money buys his way
everywhere-why should he be anx-
ious about the future? If he wants
anything, he gets it. Can there be
any more mischievous preparation
for life?
While the Church is awakening to
the needs of the boy on the street,
let US not forget the needs of the
wealthy mans son, when that son is
unwisely pampered and spoiled. He,
too needs a friend that will save him
from his folly.-Sunday-School Maga-
zine.

Took the Wrong Bottle.

Danville, Va, March 30.-As a re-
suit of mistaking a bottle Of carbolic
acid for whiskey, J. Luther Abbott,
clerk in a tobacco ware house here,
killed himself this afternoon at a
house in the Craighead street sec
ton. Abbott had a bottle of whiskey
on a bureau and beside it was an
other bottle labelled whiskey, but
containing the poison which he drank
He died in terrible agony in thirty
minutes. Abbott was thirty-tWo
years old, and leaves widow and
two children.
