York County Farmer Meets Violen
Death Near Rock Hill.

Rock Hill, Nov. 30.-The South
ern's train No. 80, last night at
Steeles crossing, south of the city,
struck a buggy driven by a farmer
named Sims, instantly killing him
and his animal. The track is straight
and open for half mile or more on
each side. The street talk to-day
was that Sims had been drinking and
that someone had put him in his
buggy and started him homeward.
He leaves widow.

POSSIBILITIES.

It is not without the range of posi-
bility that we will at some time have a
legislature which, without a referen-
dunn, will provide for a system of per-
manent road work. It will cost some
money to build permanent roads-and
the howl will be long and dismal and
blood-curdling. 1t is not unlikely that
the men who put through such a
measure would be showed under in a
succeeding election, if the election
came soon after the enactment OF the
measure. But when the roads were
used, and the advantages, in conVen'
ience and in dollars and cents, were
realized, the authors Of the measure
would be heroes, and some of those
who kicked loudest against spending
some money for permanent road work
instead of throwing it away in patch
work, would be proclaiming loudl!
how they had told the people all th'
tine that permanent work was wha
was needed, and while it would taxi
money to do it, it would be the best In
yestment which the people coult
make.

THE TURKO.ITALIAN WAR.

In this twentieth century OF the
worlds Christian civilization, it would
seem that the nations could get to-
gether and provide for the settlement
of such disputes as that between Italy
and Turkey by arbitration. Every CIV
ilized nation has large forces of Of
fcers to prevent the settlement of pri-
Wate disputes by a. resort to physical
violence, and to punish the offenders,
and yet these same nations, when it
comes to a. question among themselves,
do that which they have outlaWed so
for as their citizens are concerned.
The time has come in the progress
of the world when standing armies
and large 'navies ought to be utilized
to enforce the DEGREES of an interna-
tional court of arbitration.

"The millionaire Kid"

"The Millionaire Kid" the latest
play from the pen of the we'll known
writer, Lem B. Parker, deals with a
subject familiar to us all, namely: the
stock market and it's various ramihca-
tions and at the same time subject
very little understood by the vast ma
jority and as such is consequently OF
great interest to all. It throws light

score of catchy musical numbers are
rendered and are all Of the kind that
make your mouth pucker up to the
whistling stage and refuse to leave
YOUR mind. These same numbers are
emphasized by an exceptionally beau

has the happy faculty of mingllng
music in a drama without detracting
from the action of the piece itself.
The mounting of the play is up to
the usual Kilroy-Britton standard
which is "excellent." Raymond Paine,

Return of "The CIansman."

After an absence of three years from
this section, the famous Thomas Dix
On success, "The Clansman," has been
given an elaborate revival for a tour
of the South this season.
News to this effect has just been
ascertained from Manager Scurry, of
the opera house, who states that he
has completed arrangements with
George H. Brennan, manager OF the
Southern Amusement company, for an
engagement in this city on Saturday,
October IA.
An entirely new scenic production
has been provided for the big revival,
and the forthcoming performance here
will be an occasion of unusual import
ance in theatrical circles. "The Clans
man" is too well known in this city
to necessitate lengthy comment Suf-
flee it to say that the coming revival
will be the seventh year of unpreced-
ented success which the great South
ern drama has enjoyed. Few plays
can boast of such a record. The
Clansman" is one Of the plays Of
Southern life that has won universal
success and popularity.
The part of Silas Lynch, the color
ed lieutenant-governor in "Fhe Clans
man." is one of the best william roles
that has ever been written. 1t is rich
with possibilities and requires an ex-
ceptionally capable actor for it's inter-
pretation. Ali of the former actors
who have played the part have said
that they have derived keen enjoyment
out of it. Mr.. Paulson will appear as
Lynch in the coming production OF
''The Clansman."

Oh! glorious days of "SeTenty-six,"
The day of white mans reclamation,
The day of Hampton, Gary, Butler,

From "carpet-bag" domination;
Where have you gone? Oh! where can
you be?
I've hunted for you fairly,
I've searched the North, I've searched

East, West, and all points squarely.
Can it be, God of our land forbid!
That the sons that we've raised and
pampered,
Have bowed them in Gust, to the "gold
calf" of gain,
And their souls, by indulgence, been
tampered?

strom of woe,
Lest I languish, grow faint, lest I
perish
For the watchword Of old, in this
Southland of ours,
This birth-land of all that we cher
ish.
Are they dead, to all memories-God
rest them in peace!
May the sun shine kindly DER them!
Our maidens' bright eyes, all dimmed
with tears,
In anguish, will softly deplore them
The boys whom We love, of whom
we've dreamed,
The lineal descendants of glory,
The boys We would place pom the
apex of fame
To be told of in song and in story.
All boys! All boys!! the sons of the
sires,
Who vanquished the unholy abortion
Who are sleeping in death, who spent
their last breath
To shield you and fill you with eau
ton;
To put you on guard 'gainst the evi
to come,

These heroes who've lived, as grand
men should live
And died, and been shrouded II
glory!

BLUES MORE TO
HIS RIBBON LIST
FIorI1am Hackney Stud Preemi-
nent at Long Branch
Horse Show.

LONG BRANCH, July 29-There was
no diminution of interest yesterday al
the Monmouth County Horse Show, al
Hollywood Park. West End, the final
session of which is held this after
noon. Lowering clouds in the early
afternoon and the prospect of rain had
no terrors for the devotees. with the
result that there was a most of mem
bers of Rumson road society on hand
to witness the awarding of the rib
bons.
The nominations OF the Florham
Hackney stud stood out from the rest
of the many comptitors, and when the
days Judging was ended George Wat
son had added five more blue ribbons
to his already long string. as well as
his quota of reds.
Florham Tip Toe and Florham Top
Notch made a double event of the har-
ness pairsfi and the harnes standems,
catching the eyes of the Judges for the
blue in each instance. Aside from these
wins, Florham Charm was the best
combination and saddle horse, while
Fiorham Dilham o. K. took care of the
ponies in the harness class.
These victories for the biggest ex-
hibitor of the show were supplemented
by a somewhat hollow victory in the
f~our-in-hand class, in which the Flor
ham coach and four were quickly I'D
judged the Winners over Emil Seelis's
quartet.
During the progress of the latter
event a proceeding which was voted in
very bad taste was sen when an en-
ployee of Seelig. apparently d~issatis-
fed with the showing of his employers
team, threw mud clods at the leaders
heads, in order to stir them up a bit.
Closely following this rather out-of-
