KNEW WHO WOULD GET HIM.
Little Negro Told Judge Mr.. Cannon
Blease Would Get Him if He
Didn't Tell the Truth.

An amusing incident occurred dur
ing the trial of the little negro, FACT
James, for murder in the sessions
court here on Tuesday morning. a
little negro boy was presented as q
witness and was examined by Judge
Gage as to his capacity to testify
Judge Gage put several questions tc
the little negro, who was about siz
years old, and then asked him if he
knew he ought to tell the truth. The
little negro promptly replied, eyes
sir"
"po you know who will get you i
you don't tell the truth?" asked Judge
Gage.
Eyes, sir"
"Who" asked the judge.
Without the least hesitation the lit.
tie negro promptly replied:
"Mr. Cannon Blease."
Mr.. Blease is now magistrates con-
stable. He was formerly magistrate
and has been a peace officer for a
number of years, and his work seems
to have borne fruit in this little negro's
breast, at least.

NEWBERRY LODGE B. P. O. E.
viii Hold Memorial Exercises IN
Opera House Next Sunday-ln.
teresting Program.

throughout Elkdom on next Sunday
afternoon, Memorial exercises will be
held by all the lodges and tribute to
their departed members will be paid.
Newberry Lodge, No. 1103, has been
fortunate in that during the past year
there has been no death within its
ranks.
The lodge had secured Hon. T. F.
Brantley, of Orangeburg, to deliver
the Memorial address, but he wires
that it will be impossible for him to
be here.
Some one will be secured to take his
place, however.
The exercises will be held in the
opera house beginning at 3 o'clock and
closing at 4 o'clock, so that there
will be no interference with the Sun
day schools of the town, and every
body can attend the exercises and also
attend the Sunday school.
A very pretty musical programme
has been arranged by Miss Maize
Do1ninick. The addresses will be
brief so that the entire program will
not consume more than one hour:
The following program will show
the music part and the other places
will be filled by someone:

of course, very annoying to the actors
and sometimes quite ridiculous. Nine.

OF 1869 she was playing in Warsaw
and that her actors had great deal
of fun every time play came from

Every noble sentiment was forbid.

disloyal among others the word

was cut out and replaced by the word

"He was a slave to his passions" was
changed TO "Ie was negro to his
passions"
On another occasion the actor taking
the part of a Roman Catholic priest
had to say. Il love my country and
my people, and | shall never leave
them" The words country and
people" were changed to wife and
children"
In another play the words HE walk

"He walked three steps behind the
emperor and whispered in his ear

ANTS THAT COOK.

They Make Dough, Form Cakes and
Bake Thorn In the Sun.
The remarkable habits of the har-
vester ant have long been known to
naturallsts. Certain species not only
harvest aud store In granaries the
seeds upon which they feed, but &C.
tually plant and cultivate an annual
crop of their food seeds.
But now still more wonderful tale
Is told Of m ant which Is common
In Dalmatia Alessor barbarus. Ac-
cording TO Professor Meyer of the well
known forestry school near Dresden,
this ant not ouly cuts leaves and gath
ers seeds. but actually makes bread
or biscuit
The seeds are first sprouted. then
carried into the sun and dried. then
taken back TO the underground cham
bers, where they are chewed into a
dough The dough is then finally
made into tiny cakes, which are baked
I'm the sun then carefully stored for
future use.
From these observations 1t appears
that the art of cookery is not wholly
confined to the human race. All cook
ing is done by the sun, whether in the
ripening of fruit or In the baking Of
bread in stove. The heat obtained
from fuel is simply stored up sunlight
set free.
The Arab and the native Mexican
speak of ripe fruit as fruit which has
been cooked in the sun. The ant has
somehow learned the art of sun cook

the grain probably taking the place of

A PERlL0US FEAT.

II Took Nerves of Steel, Cool Head
and Steady Eye.
The cathedral ut Salisbury, England,
! lifts its spire 40l feet which is quite
respectable height even In the day
of skyscrapers. This spire Is topped
by ball. and on the ball stands
! cross. From the ground the ball looks
to be about the size of an orange, but
in reality 1t is greater than a mans
height.
A distinguished American visiting
Salisbury when very young man had
a curlously weird adventure on this
! spire. Workmen were at the time re-
pairing it. The American saw them
crawling round the slim steeple In the
afternoon light like so many bugs on
bean stalk. The impulse came to him
to climb the spire and stand on the
horizontal beam of the cross Accord.
ingly, late in the afternoon, when the
workmen had gone. the young man
made his way up the stairs to the lit
tie window which opened to the work
mems staging 10 run up the scaffold-
ing to the ball was easy. Then came
the slightly more difficult climb to the
foot of the cross over the bullying
curve of the ball, A short platform
gave him foothold. He reached up
and put his hands on the base of the
cross and pulled himself up. To gain
tho crossarm was merely Shining
up good sized tree, and soon he
stood on tho horizontal timber and,
reaching up, touched the top OF the
cross.
After enjoying his moment of tri-
umph he slid to the foot of the cross
and with his arms around the post
slipped down over the big bulge OF the
ball. His feet touched nothing. The
little plank from which he had reached
up was not there.
Here was n Poe-like situation requir.
Ing cool head and steady eye. He
could, of course, not look down. The
clinging hold that he had to maintain
on the bottom of the cross shortened
the reach of his body and made it
less than when he stood ON the plank
and reached up to the cross with his
hands. lie must drop so that his feet
should reach the plank, for he would
never be able to pull himself back II
he should let himself down at arms
length. and his feet hung over empty
air.
But this young American had gooC
head, which he Immediately put t.
work. He looked up at the cross anC
tried to recall exactly the angle al
which he had reached for 1t, to make
his memory tell him Just how the edge
OF that square post had appeared. A
few inches to the right or to the left
meant that he would drop into vacan-
cy Bending his head away back, he
strained his eye up the cross and fig
ured his angle Of approach. He eau
! tiously wormed himself to the right
and made up his mind that here d.
rectly under his feet must be the
| plank. Then he dropped And he
lived TO tell the tale.

CLEARED HIS CLIENT.
Aaron 5urr's Dramatic Accusation In
Murder Trial.

MURDER trial.
1t is undoubtedly true that in for
mer times in all parts of the country
1t was considered more important and
more creditable to save a mans life
or liberty than to get verdict where
property only was concerned. These
days have passed, however, as far as
New York is concerned, and in lesser
degree, possibly, in nearly all the other
states, and despite the agitation on the
subject they are never likely to re-
turn. 1t is interesting to turn back
to the earliest days of the republic
and the careers of two lawyers who
would have been giants in any age or
in any country and who were antag-
onistic in character and purpose-Alex.
ander Hamilton and Aaron Burr Both
men accepted criminal as well as civil
cases. One of the greatest efforts of
Hamilton's life was his appearance for
one Crosswell. charged with publish
ing a scandalous libel upon Thomas
Jefferson. The court was divided in
its verdict, but the prisoner was never
punished.
Aaron Burr, that erratic genius who
lacked a balance wheel, is said never
TO have lost case in which he alone
was counsel. 1t is also of record that
he won a case in which by queer
trick of fate his associate counsel was
Hamilton. 1t was murder case. The
actions and manner of the principal
witness against the prisoner seemed
to Burr exceedingly suspicious, and it
is said that both Burr and Hamilton
were undecided in their own minds
which was the guilty party-the wit
ness or the prisoner Hamilton's sum-
ming up was perfunctory. Burr be-
gan to address the jury when it was
nearly dark. The witness for the
prosecution was leaning against pill
lar. His face was pallid and covered
with perspiration. He listened intent
ly to the lawyer. Suddenly Burr selz-
ed large candelabrum. and, throw
ing the light on the face of the wit
ness, shouted, Behold the murderer
gentlemen The witness turned and
rushed from the courtroom and the
prisoner was acquitted.-F. p. Ward

There are two ways of doing almost
everything. and this is especially true
Of fastening battery and coil terminal
wires. One way is wrong. and the
other is to twist the bare end Of the
wire around the terminal as the hands
of the clock move and then tighten up
the nut. The reason for this is be-
cause the screw thread is right hand
ed; therefore the tendency of the tight
ening nut will be to twist the wire
around the terminal tighter than it
was. Should the wire be twisted the
other way the nut would tend to I'M
twist it and it would slip under the
nut and very likely get very poor
hold.-Boston Herald.
