and 'forwith'' certify to each county
clerk a statement of the assessments
of such corporation, etc. The tax upon
incomes other than corporations, etc., is
computed by the county clerk, assist
ed by the assessor of incomes, and he
in turn certifies the incomes for as
sessment and the amount of the as
sessment to the town and village and
city clerks.
Complaints are Discouraged.
The board of review in each county
will consist of three resident taxpay-
ers appointed by the tax commission.
They viii receive SO a day for their
services. The county clerk is to act
as clerk of the board. It is provided
that the board, if it considers the case
demands, can employ stenographer to
take evidence in any ease, otherwise
the county clerk takes notes and keeps
the records. 1t is further provided
that the stenographer shall be paid by
the state, but the board ''may in its
discretion" charge the expenses 10 the
complaining party or parties appear
ing before the board. This would tend
to discourage complaints unless the
complaining party was cocksure of
winning.
ANY corporation, joint stock COM
pany, etc., is given the same rights
of hearing and appeal as are now grant
ed corporations assessed by the tax
commission.
It is expected that through the Ella
borate machinery provided for the en-.
forcement of the act the state will be
able to secure greater revenue from
this new tax than has been done in
other states, which have experimental
with an income tax only to give it up
in the end as impracticable.

Bids for New St. Thomas Church to be
Taken by Architect Next Week.
Architect Joseph Lindl has complet-
ed the plans and specifications for the
new st. Thomas Roman Catholic church
to be erected at the corner of Eliza
beth and Charles streets and the con-
tract for the new building will be let
on July Goth. It is estimated that the
church and other buildings planned
will cost between $4,000 and $4,000.
The plans show one Of the most beau
tiful churches ever planned for Keno
sha. The buildings will be entirely of
brick and the church will have every
modern convenience. The congregation
under the charge of Father Malone is
growing very rapidly and already the
little church on the west side is too
small for the membership. It is plan
ned to complete the new church before
the end of the present year.

many victim of the new tax will have
serious doubts as to whether the infor-
nation which he gives viii be held in
violate and not to pass to some one
who he would not like to know his
exact condition financially.
How Tax is Collected.
The first seven sections of the bill
are taken up with the features of the
tax, what incomes include, and the rate
of taxation and exemptions. The next
twenty three sections have to do with
the machinery, by which the law will
be enforced.
The tax commission viii have entire
charge of the enforcement of the law.
The state will be divided into assess
ment districts. Counties cannot be di-
vided in forming the districts. The col
lection will begin next year on the in
comes received during the year closing
Dec. 81, 1911. In addition to the as
SCISSORS, the tax commission can appoint
deputies or authorize the assessors to
do so. It is provided that such assess
ors and their deputies shall have all
powers now granted by law to the state
tax commission.
This feature was commented on ser
iously during the debates on the bill
as comforting unlimited powers on dis
trict officials and their deputies. The
salaries of the assessors and deputies
are fixed by the tax commission. The
only limit to expenditures is that the
expenses for the assessors and their
assistants shall not exceed cents for
every thousand dollars for the valua-
ton of all property as fixed by the
tax commission in the state assessment
Of the preceding year.
Assessments to be Reviewed.
The tax commission and assessors Of
incomes are to meet on the first day of
January of each year ''and proceed to
assess" every income received during
the preceding calendar year," which
is liable to taxation. The county board
of review will meet in each county
on the last Monday of July at the
courthouse in each county to review
the assessments of incomes made by
the assessor. Where there is more than
one county in an assessment district
the board of review of the county,
designated by the assessor, shall meet
on the above date and the other will
meet at such time as the assessor may
fix, when it will be possible for the
assessor to meet with them. Notice
of the meetings are to be published in
, the county newspapers.
Anyone Directing to the assessment
made can not question the assessment
unless he first makes "full disclosure
made under oath of any and all income
of such party liable to assessment. -
An appeal to the tax commission can be
taken within twenty days when the
commission will review the findings
from the record as made.
The state tax commission has to
complete the assessments of incomes of
corporations, joint stock companies,
etc., or before Oct. Is in each year

WILL LAY ALL SECRETS BARE
Incomes of People of the State Will be
Laid Open by the Assessors and this
Promises to Bring Court Contest on
Law.


A feature of the new state income
tax, which viii undoubtedly cause con-
siderable dissatisfaction, is the init
mate knowledge which the assessor of
incomes will have of the financial con-
dition of every person and. family in
the state.
People are generally disinclined to
make known their income, even to
their most intimate friends That they
must now tell this inside information
to a total stranger will hardly be ac-
cepted with a good grace.
This feature of the bill was recog-
nized by the trainers and they tried
to make the people feel that any infor-
nation they might give would be safe
and not given publicity. 1t is provid-
ed, therefore, that no commissioner, as
SCISSOR of incomes, member of a board
of review, or any official or employee
shall divulge or make known to any
person in any manner Except as pro-
vided by law, information which has
come to him in the discharge of his
duties

Secrecy Will Be Enforced.

In case any official or employee does
divulge such information, it is provid-
ed that he "shall on conviction thereof
be punished by fine of not less than
$500 nor more than $500, or by impris-
onment in the county jail for not less
than one month nor more than SIX
months, or by Imprisonment in the
state prison for not more than two
years, at the discretion of the court.
"Such officers, agent, clerk, or en-
ploye upon conviction shall also for
felt his office or employment and shall
be incapable of holding any public Of
fee in this state for period of three
years thereafter.

as strict as it could be reasonably
made, still there is no question that

NEGRO ACCIDENTALLY SHOT.
Cheraw Hunter Mistakes STOPPING
Negro for Wild Turkey.

Cheraw, Oct. 14.-Ysterday as
Messrs. Hugh and John Bottoms, two
young business men, were hunting
on Thompson's Creek, few miles
from town, one of them saw some
distance away beyond the bushes
what he took to be wild turkey,
and thought he would have one tur-
key anyway if he got nothing else
this year. He shot, and on reaching
the spot, he found to his horror that
he had shot Anderson Williams, COL
ored, who had been gathering fodder
and had stopped to fix something,
bending over into unrecognizable
shape. He was at once brought to
town and put under medical care.
If he lives through to-day he has
chance to recover.

Richmond, Va, Oct. 1o.-The
work of preparing the petition ask
ing the Virginia supreme court OF
appeals for a new trial for Henry C..
Beattie, Jr., recently convicted OF
having murdered his young wife in
July, was begun to-day, 80 as to- be
ready for submission to the court
when it convenes November 8.
Beattie's lawyers expressed the
opinion that the chances for a new
trial are by no means hopeless.
Should the court grant writ of er-
ror, it is likely a hearing would be
had before the January term of court.
The courts first decision day will be

Louisville, KY, Oct. 14.-A negro
was 80 badly beaten by a mob here
tonight that his recovery is doubt
full.
The black had attacked 4-year-old
Ethel Cook, and when she released
herself he grabbed Hazel Hughes,
aged IA. Her cries for help brought
her mother, Mrs. Maud Hughes, and
she was also beaten by the negro.
Infuriated by the cries of the two
girls and the woman, mob was re-
strained from killing the black only
by the police. Members of the mob
have made statements to the police
and freely offer use of their names.

thirteen homes and stores, injured
four persons, one probably fatally,
and caused damage estimated at
$50;00O. Residents had noticed the

and most of them sought refuge In
cellars. Houses were blown from
their foundations and one residence
was picked up, carried nearly 200
feet and hurled against the side Of a

Physicians were Immediately sum-
moned and Rouse was put in an am
bulance and carried to the Greenville

The doctors stated this morning
that he was in fairly good condition,
and din't think any bones were
broken. It seems he had the presence
of mind to double up while falling,
which probably saved his life.

FUTURES TAKE A JUMP.
Advance of Two Dollars Per Bale.
Reasons Assigned.

New Orleans, Oct. ia reaction
of two dollars a bale in the price OF
cotton came this morning within an
hour after the opening of the week.
This was the first sudden upward
movement in futures since the long
declines started, decline that Satur-
day night amounted to almost four
and three-quarters cents pound, or
nearly $25 a bale.
The market opened at an advance
of 8 to 9 points and kept on rising
until the December and January de-
liveries were 43 points over Satur-
DAYS close. Other active months
made gains of Al to 43 points, but
the first two named months attracted
most of the trading.
General rainy and cloudy weather
over the cotton region, storm warn
ing for the Texas coast and the fore
cast of frost for Oklahoma and the
Panhandle of Texas, were the cause
for the rise. Shorts were heavy
buyers from the first call on and it
is said that one or more immense
lines of shorts were being covered.
Heavy buying for the long account
was in evidence and was on larger
scale than in any previous session
for months. Commission houses did
a large business, which was taken as
a sign that the outside public was
coming in on the bull side. At 10
O'Clock the rise was checked by the
profit-taking operations of scalping
longs. s.

Sunk His Own Treasure.

Aiken, Oct. 14.-George Haynes,
a negro, is under arrest in Augusta,
pending extradition papers to bring
him to Aiken to answer to q peculiar
charge. It is alleged that he filched
one Andrew Lee, respected negro
of North Augusta, out of large sums
of money on the pretext of having
an instrument whereby he could To-
cate buried treasure.
It is said that sometime recently
Lee purchased farm near Hamburg,
on which there had been timehonored
legends of buried wealth. Haynes is
said to have approached Lee with the
statement that he had an invention
that could locate buried treasure and
offered to use it on Lees farm to
find the legendary pot of gold. He
set his compass and it pointed to
a spring. They dug down, and sure
enough rusty pot was brought to
the surface. Haynes said it would
never do to open it then as it con-
tanned a deadly acid, and it would
have to be reburied near the surface
to allow the acid to spend itself. This
was done, and in the meantime
Haynes is said to have collected $500
of Lees hard-earned money. OF
course when the pot was eventually
opened it contained nothing Of any
value whatever.
But before it was opened, Haynes
undertook, with the aid of $500 more
of the negro's money, to find addl-
tional buried coin, but after getting
the money Haynes took to other
parts, and left the supposed pot or
gold and all other valuables with
Lee. He was located in Augusta and
arrested.

and half miles from here Sam Will
liford shot and fatally wounded
Ed Anderson, his brother-in-law. An.
derson married Williford's sister, and
they were all living together. 1t is
understood that Anderson was un-

was mistreating his wife, and this
Williford resented, firing at Ander-
son with a pistol twice and inf1icting
one wound in the abdomen. Ander-
son was operated on Saturday night,
but died yesterday. Williford sur
rendered to the sheriff last night
about 10 o'clock. Anderson was a
man about sc years of age and a car
penter by trade. Williford is little
more than a lad, being about II or
18 years old.

NEW YORK FOR INCOME TAI
PASSES RESOLUTION RATIFYiNc
PROPOSED AMENDMENT.
TabuIation, However, Shows That I'M
post Will Not Become Law
This Year.

Albany, July 13.-New York state
went on record as in favor of a fed
eral income tax when the assembly,
by vote of 81 to AZ, passed the reso-
luton ratifying the proposed amend
ment to the federal constitution au-
thoriZing such a tax. The measure
passed the senate on April 10.
Although New York, by the action
of the assembly swings into the list
of states that have ratified the pro-
posed federal income tax and brings
the total up to 81, tabulation shows
that the necessary So, Or three-fourths
of the state, is out of the question
this year.
Fifteen states have either defeated
the amendment in one or both houses,
have adjourned without taking action
or, having Endorsed the measure in one
branch, have gone into adjournment
with the other branch unrecorded.
This accounts collectively for all 46
states to date.
Thirty Votes for Tax.
Eliminating Arkansas, whose gov
ernor has raised a nice constitutional
question by vetoing the Endorsement
of the amendment by both branches
of the state legislature, only 80 votes
in favor of the proposal remain. Thus
it is obvious that further progress must
await the converting of new legisla-
lures.
The fifteen states which have failed
to indorse the amendment either be-
cause of adverse action or by inactive
adjournment are: Connecticut, whose
house killed the proposal yesterday
following the lead of the senate; Della
ware, Florida, Louisiana. Massachu-
sets, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Utah, Rhode
Island, Virginia, Vermont, West Vir-
ginia and Wyoming.
Those which have Endorsed the
amendment are: Alabama, Arkansas
California, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho,
Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Kentucky Kan
sas, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Mis-
sissippi, Montana, New York Nevada,
North Carolina, Missouri, Nebraska,
North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Ore
gon, South Carolina, South Dakota,

Above the dais was a green and white
striped canopy with front decorated
by the royal arms. Under this can
opy were two ancient chairs, used for
centuries past as seats for hundreds
of England's sovereigns who have in
vested their heirs apparent as princes
of Wales. Upon these the king and
queen took their seats and sent for
the prince.
The ceremony of investiture chosen
for the present Prince of Wales is
about 300 years old, and smacked of
the Stuart rather than the Plantag-
enet regime. The prince, upon ar
rival before his royal parents. made
low obeisance three times, and, after
the third time, when he had come
near to the king, he knelt down upon
a rich pillow while his letters patent
were read. Then the king, reading
the words of investment, put the
robes upon him, girded on his sword,
invested him with rod and ring and
set the cap and coronet of office upon
his head. The letters patent were
again read and delivered to the king,
who, in turn, handed the document to
the prince, amid a fanfare of trum-
pets. After this a religious ceremony
was conducted by the bishop of Ban
gor and by a representative minister
of the nonconformist churches. The
king and queen then proceeded to
Queen Eleanor's gateway and there
presented the prince to the people.
This was the culminati ting point of the
ceremony
After the princes presentation, the
royal household, together with the
long list of England's nobility who at
tended the ceremony, witnessed a
naval review in Carnarvon bay, which,
except for the absence of the foreign
battleships, was as impressive as the
royal review at Spithead
