THE PARDON BOARD
GETS WALKING PAPERS
Governor BIease Says That He VIII
Refer Nothing Else 10 Them.

Gov. Blease has decided to dis
pense with the State board of pardons
He, as the governor of South Caro-
lima, will act Independently on all pc
titions for pardon, commutation or
parole presented to him.
Gov. Blease said yesterday that he
would refuse to refer any case to the
board for review. There were rumors
to the effect that Gov. Blease would
dismiss several of the members of
the board. When asked as to the
status Of the case, he replied: well
| have recalled the papers in their
hands, and / will not refer any more
cases to them"
The members of the State board of
pardons are: r.. Mays Cleveland
chairman, Greenville; w. A. Clark
Columbia, secretary and c. A. Savage
Walterboro
The law requires that the board of
pardons meet four times each year
for the purpose of reviewing cases
that might be desired by the governor
OF the State. 1t is not required that
the governor of the State send cases
to the board for review. The matter
is left by the law in his discretion.
AS provided by law. the members of
the pardon board receive $4 per day
while actually at work and mileage.
Under the law the board will be re-
quired to meet and can only report
to the governor that they have met
and adjourned. Just whether this
will be enough work to insure the
drawing one days pay is question
that will have to be decided
Several weeks ago Gov. Blease ad-
dressed a letter to Secretary w. A.
Clark asking that he return all peti-
tions for pardons. The papers were
returned.-The State

SEEK BACON CIPHER

hidden object"
The doctor declared he was under
contract not to divulge the first fruits
of his search to the newspapers. and
refused to tell how he discovered the
exact spot where, according to his be-
lief. lies the key to the great literary
question.
1t has, however. transpired that one
clew was given him by line in the
first folio edition, 1923. of Shakes
peare opposite his portrait.
ut was for gentle Shakespeare

Owen spent last year searching for
the angle" and explored Chepstow
castle without results. AS soon as he
received the Duke of Beaufort's per-
mission, 1t Is said, the doctor, who
never had been at Chepstow before,
found his way through the woods to a
spot one mile from the castle, to-
wards the Wye. He walked with the
secret of his cipher and without hest
tation directed the workmen to begin
digging at certain bend in the river.
According to an Express correspon-
dent DR.. Owen showed him the source
Of information which enabled him to
locate the precise spot where manu-
script was hidden. 1t is long scroll,
IS feet In length and q yard wide,
which at first glance appears nothing
more than conglomeration of print

American In England After

Duke Of Beaufort Backing Or. orville
Owen Of Detroit In His Search
for Hiding Place OF Key TO
Ancient Mystery.

London.-During the last three days
general attention has once more been
called to the evergreen Bacon
Shakespeare controversy by the news
that DR.. OrvilIe Owen of Detroit has
begun extensive digging in the bed of
the River Wye at Chepstow.
The doctor is not digging for treas
ures. Besides himself and the Duke
of Beaufort, whom he has succeeded
in interesting In his search, no one
knows exactly the nature OF his mys-
terious quest. The American has de-
clared, however. that he hopes to dis
cover nothing less than undisputable
proofs that Bacon was the real au-
thor of the Shakespearean works.
1t is asserted by some Baconians
that Sir Francis Bacon was son of
Queen Elizabeth and rightful heir to
the throne, and that he published
things which he dared not publish I'M
der his own name, hiding them by
means OF a cipher in his plays, which
were issued under the name OF
Shakespeare.
II is this cipher which DR.. Owen
has come from Detroit to England to
find. He had been laying his plans
more than a year, and now has sue
ceeded in obtaining leave to make ex
tensive excavations In the mud Of the
Wye ON the property Of the Duke OF
Beaufort.
The work can only be accomplished

SOME WALK FOR A PIGEON
Makes Trip From New York to Phil
adeIphIa on Foot as Result
of Wager.

Allan A. Ryan, the president OF the
Aero Club of America, said at a re-
cent aeronauts' banquet in New York:
There's chap in France who is
getting remarkable results out of
study of the flight of the large soar
ing birds, the eagle, condor and vul.
ture. He tames these huge creatures.
They walk at his side like dogs. A
condor of his at the Pau aerodrome
narrowly escaped being run over by
an automobile last month
There is always something funny
about walking birds. You will re-
member that windy day when the
blasts were SO wild and strong that
the crows all had to walk home. Can't
you see those crows, black and grave,
trudging sturdily homeward along the
wind-swept and snowy road?
Il heard the other day about man
who bet a pigeon fancier that he
hadn't pigeon that could make the
trip from Philadelphia to New York.
The pigeon fancier accepted this bet,
and foolishly intrusted his best car
rier pigeon to his opponent. The lat
ter, though, before releasing the bird
in Philadelphia, clipped its wings.
"The next day the fancier admitted
sadly that his pigeon had not yet come
home.
"'Then l win,' said the other man.
mo; you must wait Bit objected
the fancier.
The second day the pigeon had still
not returned. But on the third day
the fancier gayly demanded payment
OF the wager.
my bird is back he said. and in
superb condition. only his feet are
sore'"

no Mark Hlstorle spot.

A movement is on foot to erect
monument to commemorate the first
burial which took place In the first
cemetery Of the first church in the
Kishacoquillas Valley, Mifiin county.
Pennsylvania. A little white child.
whose name has been long ago for.
gotten, was first to be inferred. The
funeral cortege was beset by In
dams and the men stood guard with
their rifles while the women lowered
the body into the grave and filed in
the earth. The spot is historic, located
only a few yards from the celebrated
Logan spring, where Judge William
Brown, the original grantee of the land
surrounding Browns Mills, now Reeds
vile, from the commonwealth Of Penn
sylvania, met Chief Logan, the Mingo,
which meeting sealed the friendship
between Indians and whites until the
former had been pushed further west
by the trend of civilization.
