County.

Capt. E. M. Adams, corps of en-
gineers, stationed at Charleston is
in Marion today, guest of chamber
OF Commerce. Capt. Adams was in
vited here to inspect what is local
ly known as the Gibson dam, near
where the Atlantic Coast Line rail-
road crosses the great Pee Dee riv-
er. 1t is claimed that about 10000
acres of land are made practically
valueless by the overflow of the Pee
Dee, whereas if the Gibson dam
was restored this rich section, once
cultivated with little or no chance
of loss by flood, could be reclaim
ed and would prove to be some of
the most productive sell in this
very fertile county.
The dam was built Before the
war between the states and in Jan
uary, 1865, was destroyed by the
Sherman freshet, since which time
the section has gradually become de-
populated due to floods and the un-
healthfulness caused thereby. A
committee representing the cham
Der of commerce took Capt. Adams
over a jart of the affected area to-
day and later laid their argument
before him. 1t is the belief of the
Marion people that if this dam is
restored and certain bends in the
river removed by making "cut-offs''
not only will the usefulness OF
the lands and the health of the com
munity be restored but navigation
on the river will be favorably af-
fected, the dam serving to keep
the water in the channel and the
Strengthening of the bends serving
to remove the sluggish eddies where
sand shoals form a serious menace
to navigation.
1t is estimated that if these
things are done it will result in an
Increase of land values of this coun-
ty of from 100000 to $65O,0OO ant
the work will probably cost not NOR,
tfan $4,000 to $4,000. If Cap
tain Adams recommends the resto-
ration of the dyke and Improvement
of the channel the money will be
available from the appropriations OF
$4,000 for Pee Dee river. Wheth-
er Capt. Adams recommends it or not
remains to be seen.-The State.

OF all the pleasures which ma
ture has given man the power to en-
! Joy the keenest, is that derivtd from
fair contest. To the winner in any
fair rivalry where wit is pitted
against wit, effort against effort,
endurance against endurance, there
is satisfaction not to be found in
any other pleasure. The sense Of
superiority thus acquired is the only
sense of superiority that is laudable
and bears no resemblance to vanity
which is engendered by wealth or
or charm. The loser in a fair con-
! test is yet winner by the mental de-
velopment acquired through con-
testing gallantly against keen oppo-
sition. To the winners in this pop
ularity contest the pleasure of the
strife will be equal to the magnifi-
| cence OF the prizes.

INTENDED DUPE OF HORSE RAGE SW|NDLERS EFFECTS
 ARREST OF CLEVER CROOK
Mechanic Had Drawn Check For $500 to
 Bet on Horse Races.
Check, However, Was Valueless and He Had Hoped to Beat Swinders at Their Own Game-Failing He Caused Their Arrest After Winning
 Small Sums of Money from Them

Through the arrest at Seaside park yesterday of well dressed, retiring young man describing himself as John A. Browne, clerk, 28 years old of Atlanta, Ga, there was dis closed sensational attempt to oper- ate gold brick swindle in the heart of the city Saturday afternoon in which Browne and his associates are alleged to have all but succeeded.
 Browne is held under bail of $200 for attempting to obtain money un- der false pretenses, but the police are confident that Browne although he went to jail this morning in default of the necessary cash for bail, will have it before his case is called again next Thursday and will not appear for trial.
 Andrew Bright, upon whose com plaint the prisoner was arrested by Detective Hall at Seaside park yes terday morning is a mechanic, work ing for the A. & B. Mfg. Co., Yester- day morning he and Browne. were walking through Wall street toward Main street, when they met the de- tective. Bright gave Hall the wink, and nodded his head significantly to- wards his companion whose attention was directed elsewhere.
 Bright and his cOmrade walked down Main street with Hall follow ing, turned up Gilbert street to Broad street and proceeded to Railroad ave- nue. Here Patrolman Brown was standing at the corner. Hall still shadowing the pair, told Brown to call Bright one side and ask what was in the wind.
 Bright told Brown to urge Hall to continue to follow. The two reached Seaside park before Hall finally de- cided to approach them. As he did, Bright seized Browne firmly and call ed to Hall. Heres your man, Pete" :" exclaimed the mechanic, as Hall walked up. Whats the trouble 9" asked Hall. He's tried to rob me of $500," exclaimed Bright, and then he told of his placing a $500 bet on a horse race.
 According to Rright,s story he stood in Fairfield avenue Saturday afternoon when Browne, whom he had never seen before, asked him when the ball game began. As they stood talking casually, Browne ex- claimed. pointing behind Blight, Look
