ROBERT TREAT PAINE DEAD.
Was President OF American Peace SO.
ciety and Well.known Phllan-
thropist.

WALTHAM, Mass. Aug. 12.--Rob-
EFT Treat Paine, president OF the Am
erican Peace society, and widely
known as a philanthropist, died last
night.
The end came at 10:40, the patient
sinking into death almost impercept-
IDLY. He was a sufferer from paral-
ysis and had been unconscious for
several days.
II was through his efforts in behalf
of peace among the countries OF the
world that Paine became a figure OF
something more than national prom
inence. AS president of the American
Peace society his work occasionally
took him to Europe, and at The Hague
his name was enrolled among the
prominent advocates OF disarmament.
Born in Boston In 1855, the son OF
Charles Cushing Paine, who was a
grandson OF Robert Treat Paine, one
OF the signers OF the declaration Of
independence, Mr. Paine's career of
philanthropy and religious endeavor
forms chapter in the history OF that
city during the past half century.

WOMAN ACCUSED OF MURDER
STARVES TO DEATH IN PRISON
Mrs. Virginia Wardiaw Deliberately
Ends Her Own Life by Refusing
to Take NourIshment.

NEWARK, N. j., Aug. 12.-Miss
Virginia Wardlaw, one OF the mysteri-
Gus sisters under indictment for kill
ing Mrs. Ocey w. NJ. Snead, the East
Oronge bath-tub victim, died in the
house of detention yesterday after
noon. Death wac due, In the opinion
OF physicians to starvation.
The fate OF the aged woman In this
respect paralleled that of her alleged
Ccey Snead before her death said her
ailments were all due to lack Of nour-
ishing food.
In the opinion OF jail attendants,
Miss Wardlaw deliberately starved
herself to death. This has revived ru-
mors circulated at the time OF Ocey
Sneads death, when the history Of
the mysterious household was under
investigation, that death pact-ex-
listed between Miss Wardlaw and her
niece.
For several weeks the woman's con-
dition had been growing worse and
Monday she was removed from the
Jail TO the house of detention. In the
cell she had occupied was found
quantity of food which the prisoner
had concealed.
What effect Virginia's Wardlaw's
death will have on the fate of her sis
ters is still to be determined. She
was the dominating influence of the
strange household and predictions
were made tonight that Mrs. Martin
and Mre. Snead may never be brought
to trial.

Ephriam Williams has made a rec.

working on the Scarborough gin
house Tuesday and the scaffold gave
away with him when he was about
thirty feet up in the air. He came
down head foremost and struck a 4
by IL piece of timber full force. All
the injury was a cash in his scalp
about three to four inches long.
When he was reached the cash was
seen and some cottonseed were hang
ing to his wound. Examination, how
ever, disclosed that what was seen
was not brains as was at first thought.
1t will take a harder blow than that

popularity Of this sport will wane now

Cotton Seed Meal Rules.

Cotton seed meal as a fertilizer can
now be sold under the cOmemrcial
fOodstuffs act which was passed at the
last session Of the legislature as the
result Of an amendment to the re-
Quirements Of the act as has been an
nounced by the department of agri-
culture.
Under the new arrangement cotton
seed meal can be sold with stamp
as required by the commercial food
act or with a fertilizer tag tax.
The following announcement has
been made by Commissioner Watson:
"In view of the satisfactory presen-
tation to this department on the part
Of those who are engaged in the cot
ton mill oil industry in this State, and
after a full understanding with the
authorities at Clemson College, hav-
ing charge Of the sale of cotton seed
meal as fertilizer. l have today issued
under the authority given in the law,
an amendment to the rules and regu-
lationS promulgated on May /, gov
erning the sale of commercial food
stuffs in the State of South Carolina,
which reduces sthe standard for cot
ton seed meal from 1862 per cent
protein, per cent fat and IL per
cent crude fibre G 1-2 ammonia) and
requiring all cotton seed meal under
this standard to be labeled cotton
seed meal to the basis of per cent.
ammonia. This amendment reduces
our standard to the same standard
required at Clemson College for cotton
seed meal for fertilizer purposes, and
enables any cotton seed meal above 7
per cent ammonia to be labeled cot
ton seed meal but anything below
must carry the term cotton seed feed
meal This is adopting a lower STAN
dard Of cotton seed meal for feed pur-
poses than has been adopted in most
of our sister Southern States, but
have deemed it justifable and, indeed
advantageous in view of the fact Nat
the standard originally fixed brought
about considerable complications, re-
sulting from the standard fixed at
Clemson College for fertilizer pur-
poses, and in order that the cotton
seed oil industry in South Carolina
may not be seriously affected. 1t
merely changes one word upon the
tag, and the dealer knows exactly
what he is buying in protein strength
Furthermore, cotton seed feed meal
carrying as low a per cent. of pro-
tein as 10 per cent. could be sold to
the trade under the former standard
FOR feed purposes. The only effect
so far as the consumer is concerned
to the amended rules and regulations
is the changing of one word upon the
label on such stuff as runs between SO
and 1852 per cent protein.
Il have also issued an amendment
to the rules and regulations estab-
fishing standard for corn chop and
corn bran, fixing the minimum pro-
tein for corn chop, which Is a low
grade feed, at per cent. protein and
for corn bran, which is also a low
grade fed stuff, at 8 per cent protein.
These standards were not set in
the original PRONUNCIATION .on May l..
have also amended the rules and
regulations so as to make 1t clear that
cracked corn. as such, does not come
under the new commercial feed stuffs
law except when proved upon inspec-
ton to be made from damaged whole
grain corn and dangerous to the lives
of animals"

The matter of the encampment
came up for discussion. Chickamauga
Park was advocated because there the
regiment would join with the regular
army In the manuoevers. while Ander-
son was advocated because a march
would be made from there to Paris
Mountain. where they would be join
ed by the 1st regiment which will be
encamped at spartanburg. A sham
battle would be fought between the
two. Chickamauga appealed to those
present more than the Anderson
proposition and a motion TO 60 to the
former place prevailed.
A telegram was received from the
Aiken Board Of Trade inviting the
regiment by encamp there. Aiken and
Anderson were given a vote of thanks
for the invitations extended.
After the discussion and vote a re-
cess was taken to go out and view the
cadet company at the Calhoun school
and for dinner.

The visitors were the guests OF the
J local officers at dinner. After dinner
another session was held, at which
time other matters OF interest to the
regiment were discussed.
