Otis in the prosecution. There was
no dispute as to the facts. Taylor
married Miss Buford Cubic at Glenn
Springs in 1909, and in May, Of this
year, left her and married Miss Hat
tie Blanchard at the same place. Miss
Blanchard admitted that she knew
Taylor had a wife living when she
married him. The prosecution OF
Taylor was instigated by Miss Blanch-
ards brother.
Judge Aldrich declared that since
Miss Blanchard knew that Taylor was
already married the defendant had
not committed bigamy. The ceremony
said the court was a mere meaning
less form, a silly farce.
Whether or not the second wife
knew her husband was already mar
ried had nothing to do with the case
said Mr.. Otis. "She Is not on trial.
said the solicitor; and he read a def
milton Of bigamy from a lawbook
which he said was frequently quoted
by the supreme court as an authority
This book said that bigamy consisted
of going through the ceremony OF
marriage while another husband OF
wife. not divorced. was still alive. II
was in the ceremony, Mr.. Otis con-
tended, that the crime was commit
ted.
Judge Aldrich took exception. A
ceremony was not necessary for a
marriage in this state. he said If a
man and woman called each other
man and wife in the presence Of wit
nesses and lived together as such, they
were married just as legally and firm
ly as II the ceremony had been per-
formed by the chief justice Of the SUI
preme court. The ceremony In the
case Of Taylor and Miss Blanchard
was without significance, he said
since both knew 1t to be illegal II
they chose to compromise themselves
that was their own affair and the
state could not interfere with a prose-
cution for bigamy.
Mr.. Otis rejoined by citing a case
in which man was held to have
committed bigamy in marrying a ne
though the fact that the woman was
a negress in itself made the second
marriage illegal and void. He also
mentioned the case of a Mormon who
pleaded as an excuse for bigamy that
he had been performing a religious
duty. He was held to be guilty al
though 1t was presumed that his Sec
ond wife knew he was already mar
ried.
Judge Aldrlch said that Dlgamy was
an offense against the state only inso-
far as it was an offense against a
daughter of the state. and in the Tay-
lor case no offense was committed
against Miss Blanchard because she
knew beforehand that her marriage to
Taylor would be illegal.
Mr. Wilson supplemented what the
court said in the matter by declaring
that Taylor's second marriage was a
joke and neither he nor Miss Blanch-
ard had any intention at the time to
maintain relations as man and wife
Solicitor Otis intimated desire that
Judge Aidrlch should direct the jury
to bring in a verdict Of not guilty In
order that he might take an appeal
Judge Aldrich accc rdingly did so, ex-
planning that If he did allow the case
to go to the jury and they should find
Taylor guilty he would set the ver-
dict aside.-Spartanburg Herald, Sep

the beetle from a glass case in which

the beetle from a glass case in which
it was enclosed. 1t was beautiful
scarabaeus. and, at that time, unknown
to naturalsts,-of course great prize
in a scientific point Of view. There
were two round black spots near one
extremity of the back, and a long one
near the other. The scales were eX-
ceedingly hard and glossy, with all the
appearance of FURNISHED gold. The
weight of the insect was very remark
able, and, taking all things into con-
sideration, could hardly blame Jupi-
ter for his opinion respecting it; but
what to make of Legrand's concordance
with that opinion could not for the
life of me tell.
Il sent for you," said he, in a gran
diloquent tone, when 1 had completed
my examination of the beetle,-"I sent
for you that I might have your coun-
sci and assistance in furthering the
views of Fate and Of the bug"
MY dear Legrand," I cried, inter-
rupting him, you are certainly unwell,
and had better use some little precau-
tions. You shall go to bed, and l will
remain with you a few days. until you
get over this. You are feverish and
Feel my pulse" said he.
I felt it, and, to say the truth, found
not the slightest indication of fever.
But you may be i'll and yet have
no fever. Allow me this once to pre-
scribe for you. In the first place, go to
bed. In the next"
You are mistaken" he interposed;
II am as we'll as / can expect to be un-
der the excitement which l suffer. If
you really wish me well, you will re-
lieve this excitement"
and how is this to be done?'
VERY easily. Jupiter and myself are
going upon an expedition into the hills,
upon the mainland, and in this expe-
dition we shall need the aid of some
person in whom we can confide. You
are the only one we can trust. Wheth-
er we succeed or fail, the excitement
which you now perceive in me will be
equally allayed."
Il am anxious to oblige you in any
way" | replied; "but do you mean to
say that this Internal beetle has any
connection with your expedition into
the hills?"
1T has"
"Then, Legrand, can become par
ty to no such absurd proceeding"
Il am sorry-very sorry,-for we
shall have to try it by ourselves"
TRY it by yourselves! The man
is surely mad!-but stay!-how long
do you propose to be absent?'
Probably all night. We shall start
Immediately, and be back, at all events,
by sunrise"
And will you promise me, upon
your honor, that when this freak OF
yours is over, and the bug business
(good GodD settled to your satisfac-
ton, you will then return home and
follow my advice implicitly, as that OF
your physician"
Yes: I promise; and now let us be
off. for we have no time to lose"

A CHINESE SOLOMON.
His Decision In a Case Of a Woman
With Two Husbands.

WIKI TWO f1uSpdHOS.
There was a Chinese judge named
Wang, who was as wise as Solomon.
Before Wang two men and a woman
appeared The older man was the
woman's first husband. He had gone
to the wars and been reported dead.
Now he returned alive to claim his
wife. But she meanwhile had mar
ried the younger man, who refused
to give her up: hence all three came
before Wang that he might decide
this truly difficult case.
Yang XII" said the judge to the
woman, which of these two men
made the better husband?"
Both were perfect husbands, my
lord judge" Yang Ki modestly re-
piled.
So the Judge told the men that he
would keep the woman by him for
week examining her thoroughly, and
q week hence he would decide the
case Well, the week passed, and the
two husbands came once more be-
fore the Judge. He shook his head
gravely and said to them:
The woman, Yang Ki, has died.
There is no case. Let her original
husband take the body away from
my house and pay for the burial"
'.Ho, not T." said the original hus-
band. And, so saying, he darted
from the court and was soon lost to
view.
You. then" said the judge to the
other man, must stand these burial
expenses"
Yes" the man answered, that Is
just, and 1 will give this woman, who
was good and kind, the finest burial
my purse will allow"
The judge clapped his hands.
Yang Ki, blushing and smiling, en-
tered the courtroom in a rich dress
Of gold brOcade.
Take her." said the wise judge,
for you and not the other merit her
love and service"

FORTUNES FROM WASTE.
Refuse Turned into Wealth by Acct
dent and Design.

Refuse Turned into Wealth by Acct
dent and Design.
One of the wonders Of modern SCI
ence is the manner in which products
hitherto regarded as worthless have
been turned to such good account that
they have earned fortunes for manu-
facturers and provided employment
for thousands of workers. 1t is not sc
many years ago that gas makers were
glad to give away coal tar in order tc
get rid of it. 1t was regarded merely
as waste and of no value. Then science
discovered its use for making dyes
how 1t could be turned into valuable
antiseptic, such as carbolic acid, and
ultimately it proved an important fac
tor in the invention Of the smokeless
powders and powerful explosives
which have made modern warfare sc
terrible.
About the same time that the value
Of coal tar was discovered an effort
was being made to utilize a thick, evil
smelling liquid, a by-product of the
soap boiling industry, which had been
thrown away as useless. Ultimately
this substance was collected and refin-
ed, the result being glycerin and for
tune.
Perhaps one of the most astonishing
discoveries was that by which the
CRIME washed from the sleeps fleece
was made to yield many thousands OF
pounds. Some observant individual
discovered that a certain amount OF
potash was absorbed by sheep as they
chewed the meadow grass. The potash
circulates through the system, and
eventually exudes through the skin
and adheres to the wool. In cleaning
the wool this mixture Of dirt and pot
ash was recklessly washed away. Now
adays, however, wool-cleaning estab-
lishments retain the water and employ
chemists to remove the potash for FUR
ther chemical use. 1t is estimated that
no fewer than 100000 pounds of po-
tassium carbonate is made from the
potash thus saved in the mills and
securing establishments of France and
Belgium.
Little is wasted nowadays in the cot
ton and silk industries. although one
time the outside and inside husks oil
cocoons were regarded as mere refuse
Now, however, the working up oi
waste fibers has been so perfected that
rarr little Of the raw material Is
thrown aWay, Velvets and pushes are
now made from short fibers which were
at one time regarded as mere waste.
The same story could be told of cot
ton. Nearly all cotton rags, as well as
linen rags are respun. Although mucn
cotton waste finds it's way to the pa
per maker the time is not far distant
when, like flock and shoddy, even shor'
cotton fibers will be worked over again
for textiles. AS it is, the waste or cot
ton mills is employed for the making
of mating and wadding and of carpet
Innings.
BY the way, how many people are
aware that it was quite by accident
that the late Sir Titus Salt, who made
an enormous fortune out of manutac-
turing alpaca, founded his wealth OF
waste, He bought up lot of monde
script hair wood which was regarded
as mere rubbish, for it was practically
useless for spinning. Sir Titus bought
the material for a mere song, and after
numerous experiments produced alpaca
from what had hitherto been regard
ed as waste material.

Anderson Daily Mail: About a year
ago the grand jury recommended that
the county supervisor buy himself an
automobile with the county funds, but
the supervisor failed to act on the rec
ommendation. This year the grand
Jury recommends that the supervisor
buy a horse and buggy out of the coun-
ty funds. We are fully of the opinion
that the county should pay the super
visor's travelling expenses, but we think
it would be better for him to buy the
automobile. He could do a lot more
travelling over the county with an au-
tomobile, and at little if any greater
expense.
