Three New Aldermen
Take Their Seats
Next Monday
System Of Sewerage Most Important
Thing With Which New Council
Will Grapple- Start Without a
Cent in Treasury

Three new members of the city
council elected at the recent election
will take their seats on Monday,
May 1st. The personnel of the
new council is as follows:
First Ward-H. Q. Britton W..
NJ. Ogle, (holdover).
Second Ward--W j. Nix; S. M.
johnson, (holdover).
Third Ward-M. r, Swanson; A.
}. Murray, (holdover).
There is possibility that w. M.
Ogle will resign from the council,
his present position as travelling
man keeping him away from the
city too much. He now has a
leave Of absence which will expire
in short time. In the event OF
his resignation the council will ap-
point a new member in his place.
There are many things with
which the new council will have to
cope during the coming year, Of
which the greatest one in point OF
Importance to the city of Roundup
is the installation of a system oI
sewerage, on which the outpoino
council has already made prett,
fair start. TO make this possible
the council will have to call !;
special election to bond the city in
the amount OF approximately SD.
10000, which is given as a fail
estimate Of the cost Of installing
the sewer system. This is an i'm.
proyement without which Roundup
cannot afford to 90 much longer
Realizing this the old council en-,
gagged an engineer to survey and
plat a sewer, and having plans and
specifications drawn, at cost te
the city of about 100000.
The matter Of improving the
streets, next in importance to the
sewer system, will also no doubt
receive considerable attention from
the new council, and it is expected
that no small amount will be ex.
pended in this manner.
The new council starts out witt
one drawback, and that is thai
the treasury is depleted, the city
being what is commonly termed
broke" Economy in it's strictes>
sense will have to be practiscd un
til money begins to pour into the
city Golfers. Licenses and fines
will be the principal source OF
revenue until the annual taxes are
collected next fall. The tax levy
, for this year has not yet been de
termined, but will probably be the
maximum again, 10 mills.
AS whole pretty good result:
may reasonably be expected from
our new board of city dads.

CROP THAT PAYS WE'LL.
What An Aiken Young Women DID
With Small Tomato Patch.

The Columbia Record says Editor
Hugh Long, in the Wagner Edisto
News, wrotes with proper pride con-
cerning the tomato production record
made by Miss Deborah Derrick Of
Ridge Spring, who seems to have
passed the mark set last year by an
other Aiken County girl, Miss Katie
Gunter. Miss Derrick had one-tenth
Of an acre planted in tomatoes.
From this small plot of ground she
gathered large quantities of tomatoes
for household consumption, either
raw, or In the form OF catsup. pickles
and preserves; and, besides this, from
the same patch" she garnered choice
tomatoes enough to fill S73 cans.
These cans of tomatoes cost her 7
cents each and sell readily ct II 1-2
cents.
She estimates her profit from this
patch" on canned tomatoes alone,
at s4S, which Is at the rate of $3.50
per acre, very much more than staple
crops ever yield. Miss Gunter's ag-
gregate production Of canned toma-
toes was $50 cans, from ole-tenth
acre.

THEIR CRUEL DEEDS
WOUNDED MEN Gre CRUCIFIED
AND BURIED ALIVE.
Dreadful Barbarities Practiced on
Italians by Turks and Arabs in
Tripoli War.

Stories of almost Incredible bar
barities practiced by Arabs and Turks
are related in dispatches received at
the Italian embassy at Washington.
In dispatph received Saturday from
Rome the Italian minister Of foreign
j,afairs describes alleged atrocities
practiced on the Italian wounded,
Which includes crucifxion and burial
alive. Women, IL Is said, take part
in the perpetration Of the cruelties.
The dispatch, which Is signed by
Signor San Guliano, minister of for
eign affairs, follows:
Near the mosque of Hani. where
tho medical post of the Twenty-sev-
enth battalion Of Barsaglieri had
been located, and in it's vicinity %
bodies of our soldiers were found.
They were horribly mutilated, cruci-
fed, with their throats cut open, i'm
raied, torn to pieces and dismem-
bered. Among them there was the
body of a surgeon lieutenant.
''In the Arab cemetery, near the
place where the fourth company of
Rersagrieri was located, seven bodies
were discovered. They had been in
tered alive with their heads out Of
the earth. The body of one of these
shows that they had been terribly
tortured.
ut showed many shots and dagger
wounds; the eyes had been pulled out
and threaded and the eyelids sewn
to the eyebrows. His body shows ter
rible spasmodlc contractions. Anoth-
er one had one arm out Of the earth
from which the had had been cut off.
The body of a Dersagieri had been
torn to pieces.
"a captains cap has been found.
Its owner was identified by Corporal
Pasqui, who escaped miraculously af-
ter remaining over four hours in a
ditch. He testified that among the
ferocious horde were Turks and wo-
women. The military engineering
corps took photographs.
1T Is reported that tonight (No-
vember 81 in the Arab cemetery in
the. interior Of the city Fthe body of
an Italian gunner was found with
many dagger wounds. The murder
ers were many, and amongst them
ttera WAS n local noIiceman L2sntial.
who is now under arrest. From 9th
er sources it is reported that the
murder was committed by the afore-
said Zaptie, with the passive assist
ance of other Zapties, who concealed
TIC crime"
The dispatch also confirms the
withdrawal of the Italian troops from
Henni. This, it is said, was neces-
sary because the Turks had polluted
the wells.
