MAN SLAYER KILLED.
bad Jake" Noble, % Years Old,
Slayer of Three Men, Killed.

Lexington, KY, Nov. 14.-"Bad
jake Noble, aged %, who shot and
killed Wesley Turner, jailer CT
Breathitt county, in Jackson last
Tuesday night, was shot to death by
a sheriff's posse in Knott county to-
day. Only meagre details have been
received, but it is reported that when
the posse led by the sheriff of Knott
county called on Noble to surrender
he made an effort to resist, and was
promptly riddled With bullets. Re-
wards had been offered for the cap-
ture of Noble dead or alive. Noble
killed three men. After the shooting
of Turner he escaped into the noun
tains and several bands of men have
been searching for him since.
Noble was first heard from in Lost
Creek valley, where for two days he
was under the protection of armed
henchmen. The first message to the
county authorities was: IF you send
posses to attempt to arrest me, you
had better send along a coffin for
each man."

Calf Loses Life for Money.

Spartanburg, Nov. IA Clifton
calf who chewed up a pocketbook
containing s11S in paper bills, is Of
fered as choice veal at local mar
ket tonight, while the predigested
money is in a local bank awaiting
shipment to Washington for redemp-
ton.
The money thus rescued from the
intestines of the heifer belonged to
Mrs. Luther Calvert, who resided at
Clifton. Sunday afternoon she drop
ped the purse, and the calf immedi-
ately picked it up and put it on her
inside pocket. A search for the miss
ing pocketbook was instituted, and
the discovery of a quarter which had
been in the purse in the COW lot led
to the suspicion that the calf had
gotten the money. The calf looked
guilty they say, and it was decided to
consult a veterinary surgeon. The
surgeon said an operation would be
necessary and that the patient would
have to die on the table. The opera
ton was successful and the money
was recovered.

How Trail Was Obscured.

Chester, Nov. 9.-As the whole af-
ternoon was taken up with the tech
nical work of putting in evidence Jno.
Blacks bank business in Savannah
and Walterboro, have asked w. F.
Stevenson to give me statement as
to what it revealed.
This does not relate. to the main
conspiracy" he said, "but shows pow
erful evidences of wrong doing. 1t
shows that John Black between
March and December, while on the
board, handled over $4,000. The
evidence shows that the original de-
posits were made in Savannah and
that when John Black wished to get
some of that money, instead of draw
ing on it directly, he would draw on
his brother, Henry w. Black, at Wal
terboro and at the same time would
send Henry w. Black his own check
on Savannah with which to pay the
draft and the money would get to Co.
lumbia in this indirect way. An ex-
act instance is the case of the ST.
500 draft on John T. Early put in
evidence to-day. In April 1906, JohE
Black drew on his brother for ST.
600 and the same day for $500.
John Black sent Henry Black the
$4,000. draft on Early with which to
pay these two drafts and in that way
it was not known at the bank in Co.
lumbia that Early had given Black
the $2,500 and made it appear that
the money came from Henry W.
Black"

PREACHER IN THE HEN HOUSE
Then Sold Chickens to Another
Preacher.

Spartanburg, Nov. ia negro
preacher visited the henhouse of the
Rev. Lewis M. Roper, pastor Of the
First Baptist church, of this city, and
took seven fine hens, which were
later sold to the Rev. w. H. K. Pen
dleton, pastor of the church of the
Advent, in this city.
Preacher Henry Worley, as he is
known from the pulpit, or Clarence
Thacker, as he is known when fol-
lowing his other vocation, was sus-
pected of the theft, and the police de-
partment searched his home. He was
arrested, and the Rev. Mr.. Roper
was present at the trial when the
case was called, and positively iden-
tilted his birds. The Rev Mr.. Pen
dleton identified the negro as being
the one who sold them to him, and
Worley or Thacker was convicted.
When the officers visited his home
they also found a bicycle that was
stolen from j. A. Tillinghast, pro-
fessor at Converse College. When
the negro completes sentence of
three months for the city he will be
tried in the circuit court on the
charge of the larceny CT q bicycle.

bonds. If the people of Warren
township can, by annexation to Bam-
berg county get rid of this two mill
levy, the 50 communication tax, and
the 100000 bond issue, why it will
pay them to come.
Our friend states that taxes in COL
Teton county are several mills less
than in Bamberg when assessed
values are taken into consideration.
AS We are anxious to get at the facts
in this matter, suppose the Press and
Standard suggest some plan of set
thing the question finally. We believe
taxes are lower in Bamberg than in
Colleton, at least no higher, with no
100000 bond issue contemplated.
But we may be mistaken We know
one thing, and that is the report of
the comptroller general gives Bam-
berg, a lower levy than ,Colleton,
and that the lands in Fishpond
township in this county, which ad-
joins Warren township in Colleton,
are not assessed any higher, in fact
not so high, as those in Warren. The
average there We understand is some
thing like $500 an acre against
$3.50 in Warren. But the assertion
of our contemporary that taxes are
several mills lower in Colleton than
in Bamberg assessed values consid-
er d, proves nothing, for he makes
the bald assertion with no proof back
of it. If there is any way to get at
it, We will join with him in getting
the facts. Nothing extenuate or set
down aught in malice" is our motto
in this matter, and We are not trying
to induce the good people of Warren
township to annex to Bamberg. We
stated in the outset that We would
welcome them, which is true, but we
stated that it was a matter for them
to decide in business way, in the
light of their best interest. We be-
lieve they are competent to decide
this matter for themselves, that they
will look carefully into all these mat
ers of taxation, etc., which will al
feet them, and that, having. done so,
they will decide to cast their lot with

The Press and Standard states that
Hon. C. w. Garris told the people
of Warren township, on the occasion
of a recent visit to his old home,
that they would not better their con-
dition by going to Bamberg county.
Mr.. Garris was member of the party
who visited Smoaks on this occasion,
the other gentlemen ia the crowd be-
ing from Bamberg. We do not know
from whom the Press and Standard
received its information, but as a
number of people from the Smoaks
section heard the short speech of Mr..
Garris, there should be no difficulty
in establishing the tenor of his re-
marks. To settle the matter defin-
itely, however, suppose our contem-
porary ask Mr.. Garris what he said
in his speech at the school house in
Smoaks.

THAT BOND ISSUE.

We people in Bamberg county
build good roads without issuing
bonds and thereby increasing taxes,
neither have We a special levy of
two mills for roads as has Colleton.
Let us figure little on the bond is

heartily favors. A bond issue of
s3OO,OC0 would bear interest at not
less than six per cent. which would
be $4,000 year,-an amount
practically equal, mind you, to what

ty exr enses. The two mill levy now

will take seventy-five years to pile

Murder Charge from Football.

Wheeling, w. Va, Nov. IA
warrant for Thomas Mccoy, right
end of the Bethany college football
team, charging him with murder in
connection with the death of Capt.
Rudolph Munk of the West Virginia
university team was issued here to-
day by Magistrate r.. G. Hobbs. The
action followed partial completion of
the inquest by Coroner w. w. Rog-
ers.
Munk sustained injuries in the
game between the two teams here
Saturday from which he died within
five hours without regaining con-
sciousness.
The testimony upon which the
warrant was issued was furnished
principally by Homer N. Young, a
Pittsburg attorney, who umpired the
game. Young testified that Munk
was making interference and was a
few yards in front of the scrimmage
line when Mccoy came up to the
West Virginia captain, striking him
in the head. Munk fell to the ground
unconscious and Young ordered Nc
Coy from the field.
The autopsy disclosed the fact that
Munk's death was caused by a blood
clot at the base of his brain and
could not have been the result of a
former injury. The dead athelete's
body was removed to-day to his home
at Connellsville, Pa. Mccoy lives at
Canton, Ohio.

somebody else besides me should
want to be speaker"
On the prospects of the action OF
the new Democratic majority in the
house, the minority leader said:
"The Democratic success at last
Tuesdays election was due to the
fight on the rules in the house and
dissatisfaction with the tariff law. l
suppose we will revise it, cautiously
and wisely We will get together as
soon as congress meets and have a
conference on the tariff and other
matters. 1t is necessary for the DEM
ocrats at the beginning of the next
congress, for it is the first time in IA
years that the Democrats have had a
congress, and there are only three
Democrats elected to the next con-
gress who ever sat before in con-
gress with a Democratic majority.
These are Jones, of Virginia, Talbot,
of Maryland and myself. Talbot has
been a member off and on for 26
years. I am completing my 18th

gress-Bartholdt, Phelps, DeArmond
