RICHARDS SUCCEEDS SULLIVAN.
Kershaw County Man Appointed on
Railroad Commission.

Columbia, November 26.-John G.
Richards, Jr., of Liberty Hill, KershaW
county, will fill the unexpired term OF
the late James Mattison Sullivan
for railroad commissioner. The ap-
pointment was made this afternoon by
Governor Martin T. Ansel. Major
Richards was not an applicant fol
the position, but he was recommend
ed to the governor by numerous
friends of both. The term for which
Major Richards is appointed is TWEEN
ty-six months.
Major Richards served twelve
years in the general assembly, as a
member of the house of representa-
tives. During that time he made a de-
termined fight for higher education
and especially for the common schools
of the State. Likewise, he was Glenn
sons standby" in the house. During
the days of the old State dispensary
John Richards, was a hearty advocate
of the system, but imme ediataly upon
the death of the dispensary he became
a prohibitonist and was always, in re-
cent. years, pressing that measure in
the house. During the session of 1909,
when the prohibition measure was
passed in the house, along with Men
del L. Smith, a prohibition leader, re-
fused to vote for the compromise 2
measure that came over from the
senate.
Major Richards has held two other
commission appointments under Gov
ernor Ansal, one being the commits
sion in the matter of the women's
monument and the other being the
Jamestown exposition commission.
Last summer Major Richards was in
the race for governor.
The fact that Major Richards is
named will probably mean that there
will have to be rehearing before the
railroad commission in the matter OF
the cotton piece goods rate to Char
lesion, and the general freight rate
hearing also may have to be postpon-
ed. 1t so happened that Governor An
sci did not name any one for the posi-
ton Of railroad commissioner out OF
the thirtyone applicants.
T. B. Lumpkin will remain as Sec
retary of the commission. B. L..
Caughman will probably be elected
chairman in January. The other mem
Der of the commission to come in dur
ing January is G. McDufie Hampton,
Of this city. Major Earle holds his
position until January.

was found empty. The second barrel
contained an empty shell, and another
empty shell was found within few
inches of the muZzle of the gun.
The branch runs through a broad
field. An overgrown hedge covered
the banks of the branch, which is
about FIVE feet deep and about six
feet wide at the top.
Seen by Negroes.
Within about $50 yards is negro
cabin. An old negro woman who
lives there said that she saw the boys
out there shooting, but that she paid
no attention to them and knew moth
ing of their disappearance. Within
one-half a mile are three other houses.
The point where the boys had hitch
ed their horse was within quarter OF
a. mile of where their bodies were
found.
Thursday night and Friday morn
ing searching parties were out look
ing for the boys. The party was in
creased largely last night, and with
lanterns the entire swamp on this side
Of the river was carefully searched.
The Gruesome Discovery.
A party was again formed this
morning, many who had been out all
night again renewing the search,
which was begun at the place where
the boys were last seen, with the un-
derstanding that it was to spread
gradually and take in every foot OF
the ground The portion where the
boys bodies were found was assigned
to a party, among whom were Frank
Crosland and ". G. Carlisle. Mr..
Crossand was riding horseback up
the branch, when he discovered the
body of young Moore.
The bodies remained as they were
found until the coroner empanelled
his jury, when they were moved and
an examination made by DR.. w. J.
Crosland. The jury is making
thorough examination aud taking the
testimony of everyone IN the immed-
late vicinity.
Accident or Murder?
Many think it practically impossi-
BILE to reconcile the facts with the
theory Of accident, yet nothing has de-
veloped 20 point conclusively to the
theory OF murder.
The coroner's jury adjourned late
this afternoon to meet again next
Wednesday, when additional testimony
will be taken with a view to throwing
further light upon what now seems to
be an impenetrable mystery.

DEATH OF YOUTHS
BODIES OF BENNETTSVILLE LADS
FOUND BY SEARCHERS.
Peculiar Accident or Murder.-Search-
ing Parties Discover Remains
in Branch.

Bennettsville, Nov. 26.-The dead

10 o'clock.
AS reported in The News and Cour-
ier today, these two boys left home

They went to Gardner's Bluff, hitch
ed their horse and buggy and nothing
definite could be learned of their
whereabouts until the bodies were
found today.
Load Passed Through Body.
Prentiss Moore, the son of Mrs.
Emily E. Moore, and the younger of
the two boys, was found lying on the
south side of a branch about five feet
deep. His feet were towards the bot
tom of the branch, and he clutched a
briar between his fingers. An exam1-
nation showed that the load from a
shotgun had entered his body from
the side near the edge of the should
er blade, ranged towards the middle
of the chest, passing through the body.
The entire load, shot and Wad, was
lying underneath his clothes, in front
of the chest.
Shot Through Heart.
Guy Rogers, a son of County Treas
urer n. B. Rogers, and the Older of
the boys, was found in the bottom of
the branch, only a few feet from the
body of young Moore. His face was
turned down, his body was nearly in
kneeling position, with his head in
the edge of the water, in a puddle of
blood. He, too, was wounded with a
shotgun, the load entering directly
into the heart from the front, passing
through the chest, shattering the ribs
on the rear side, some Of the shot
burying themselves in the skin of the
back. One was found inside the shirt,
near the wound. The wound in young
Rogers body ranged slightly down
from the front.
Shotgun Nearby.
A double-barrel shotgun was found
on the brink of the branch, the muz-
zle slightly elevated, pointing towards
the ditch, one trigger cooked, and in

BOSTON-ELY.
No Foundation For Rumor That As.
sessment Is to BE Levied.

They are still sinking on the Bos-
ton-Ely in the Emma shaft, and each
day brings them so much nearer to
the water level where it is confidently
expected that they will get the ore.
The sudden shrinkage in the price of
the shares of the company came as a
surprise to the people here who have
kept in touch with the work that Is
going ahead at the property; but the
cause has become apparent on re-
ceipt of information from the eastern
centers.
A rumor was started in the east
that another assessment was inn
minent, but there is no foundation for
this report unless it be that bearish
interests are at work. From what is
learned here there are $4,000 in the
treasury and this precludes the neces-
sity of an assessment for at least
another year. The Boston-Ely can
operate for that length of time with
a monthly expenditure of $4,000, and
it will not be necessary to spend more
than this amount until long after
they have secured the ore.

be appointed, and the property sold
to the highest bidder for the accrued
debts 1t is up to the stockholders to
get busy.
As far as the indebtedness of the
company is concerned there need be
no fear that it will be paid. for the
property is worth far in excess of the
bills against Il. During the week
Receiver Millard secured an order of
court authorizing him to issue re-
ceivers certificates to the amount of
$4,000. This amount is to be applied
TO the payment of the interest on the
outstanding bonds, $500, the taxes
and the current expenses in operating
the pumps in the Eureka shaft 1t is
said that arrangements for the cash
ing of the certificates have been made
and that the money will be forthcom-
ing. Then Mr.. Millard has plan for
raising the amount of the entire in
debteness, paying off everything, and
making the money he has raised a
first mortgage against the property.
Then again there is the possible sale
of the rights of way desired by Ne
vada Consolidated, which would put
the reorganized company on its feet
for several months. after which as
sessments on the stock would be
necessary to keep things going. But
before this can be done reorganiza-
tion must be effected. and this is the
kernel of the nut which must be
cracked by the stockholders of Ely

ASK FOR BIDS FOR
COUNTY PRINTING

. With the view of diminishing
. the expenses of the county dur
. ing the coming year, the COM
missioners, at their meeting
Wednesday afternoon, ordered
, that sealed bids be submitted
> for the county printing for the
year 1911. These bids will in
clude the printing of the tax
statements, tax roll, delinquent
tax list, legal notices and sta
tionery used in all branches of
, the county government. At one
of the last meetings of the board
bids were received for printing
, the delinquent tax list and the
, contract was let at the rate of
, 49 cents for each description,
and in view of the fact that in
the past the county paid 50 for
the same work, 1t can readily be
seen that a big saving to the
county has been made.

Congressman James Tawney of

Congressman James Tawney of
Minnesota, was defeated in the
primaries last week, after serving
his party and district for eighteen
years. The man who opposed him
had "sDn' on the end Of his name:
it is openly charged that a lot of
democrats voted in the republican
primaries because they wanted to
get rid Of Tawney; and the insur-
gents were ''agin" hin-a combin-
alton that he could not withstand.
The unknown insurgent trimmed
him up to the tune of $500 major
ity, and now Tawney is probably
wondering what he has got out of
his long service. The man who n
tiers politics wants to already be
ready for the defeat that awaits
him when the tickle. public gets
ready % change its affections.
