Books Escape Flames.

Albany, N. Y, March 30.-More
than 100 workmen attacked the still
smoking ruins left by the fire in the
west end of the State capitol this af-
ternoon and soon discovered that the
wreck of the States magnificent Ii
brary was not as complete as at first
supposed. Buried under tons of stone
lay thousands of books that can be
preserved by rebinding and many are
unscathed. The salvage may amount
to many thousands of dollars.
Records of the war of 1912 were
found intact, and the custodians hope
other valuable relics may be discov-
cred in a state of possible preserva-
ton. The work of clearing away the
debris promises to prove an enormous
and expensive task. A bill introduced
in the legislature appropriates $780,
900 for this purpose alone.
Gov. Dix issued special orders to-
day to the workmen to make every
effort to find the body of Samuel j..
Abbott, the aged night watchman,
who is believed to have perished in
the State library. Mr.. Abbott's son
spent a part of the day with the
gangs at work in the library.
The unsettled United States sena-
torship situation leaves in doubt the
question of temporary quarters for
the legislature. If the legislature
elects a senator tomorrow it may re-
cess for a week or more, leaving the
matter of quarters open until its re-
turn

Pursuing Band Of Kidnapers.

Las Vegas, N. NJ, March 81
Headed for the bad Lands" near
the Oklahoma line, four bandits, who
kidnapped the two sons of A. T. Rog-
ers, Jr., an attorney of this city, and
compelled the payment of $4,000
ransom, are tonight closely pursued
by deputies, with the prospect of a
conflict.
Bloodhounds are used in the chase.
A message from ranch, 60 miles
northeast of here, tonight said that
four men, believed to be the bandits,
passed there, riding at full gallop.
Cowboys from the ranch started af-
ter the fugitives. They had ropes
for a lynching in case the kidnapers
should be captured.
The kidnapers are believed to be
members of a gang of postofhce and
bank robbers, ex-convicts.
A reward of $4,000 has been Of
fered for the kidnapers, dead or
alive.

SERIOUS FIRE AT FAIRFAX.
Warehouse and Stable Burned to
Ground.

Fairfax, March 30.-A warehouse
belonging to w. E. Harter and con-
tanning 100 rolls of bagging and some
forage, and ]. J. Harter's livery
stables were destroyed by fire last
night. The fire was discovered about
10 O'Clock in the upper story of the
warehouse where the forage was
stored, but how it originated is a
mystery as the building had been
closed and locked several hours be-
fore. The flames soon spread from
the warehouse to a small building
near the livery stables and it was
then impossible to prevent the de-
struction of the stables.
Fire was communicated from the
stables to the town guardhouse but
this structure, though badly damaged,
was not destroyed. The losses will
aggregate several thousand dollars.
There was no insurance on anything
burned.

Dirt Broken for Interurban.

Belton, March 30.-At exactly
2:15 this afternoon dirt was broken
for the first time on the new Pied
mont Northern railway. It was be-
gun about two miles below Belton
and by nightfall the work began to
look much like a roadbed in course
of construction. For several days
hundreds of men, together with car
loads of mules, road scrapers, wagons,
traction engines and other road
building paraphernalia, have been
coming into Belton, but it was only
this afternoon that work was really
begun.
w. T. Lee, chief of the engineer
ing crew, and w. S. Shelor, who has
the matter of rights of way in charge,
handled the first wheelbarrow OF
dirt. The two miles will be built
into Belton and then the line to
Greenwood will be graded.

Assessors.
Greenville, March 30.-Concerning
recent discussions that arose over the
action of Gov. Blease in revoking the
commissions of G. G.. Drake and j. l..
Campbell as members of the county
board of assessors and the subsequent
alleged statements of the governors
stenographer that the names OF
Bearden Jennings and Mr.. Acker had
been erased by Representative G. D.
Smith, a member of the Greenville
county delegation, Mr.. Smith went
before B. NJ. Shuman, an attorney,
and made affidavit, the substantial
statements of which are given in the
following extracts:
Senator Mauldin stated that the
stenographer in the governors Office
told him that had erased the name
of Mr.. Acker and substituted that of
Mr.. Campbell on the board of assess
ors of Dunklin township and also had
erased the name of Bearden Jen-
nings and substituted that of G. G.
Drake in Cleveland township.
Says Governor Did 1t.
"I erased no names, nor were they
erased under my directions, but these
changes were made under the direc-
tion of the governor.
Being the only member of the
Greeville delegation that was espe-
cially friendly to the governor, the
governor stated to me on several ,oc-
casions while in Columbia during the
session of the general assembly that
he would make appointments on my
recommendation.
'He told me to make my fight in
the Greenville delegation and if l
was downed to come to him and he
would take care of me.
Was Voted Down.
''In the delegation meetings the
delegation appeared to be controlled
by Senator Mauldin, and all the men
recommended by me were promptly
voted down by the members. In
Dunklin township, which was my
home township, I especially request
ed the delegation to recommend the
name of J. L. Campbell in the place
of ]. D. Wood. The delegation, how
ever, recommended the names of
Traynham, Cothran and Acker, my
recommendation being Cothran and
Traynham. In Cleveland township
there was no delegation meeting. L
was Informed that the majority Of
the delegation recommended Nor
gan, Hagood and Jennings. The mi
nority, which were Mr.. Earle and my
self, recommended Hagood, Morgan
and Drake. / carried the papers to
the governor, who had told me he
would appoint my appointees, and
thereupon Gov. Blease told his Sec
retary to make any, changes that l
desired.
''The appointments made were by
the governors own orders and the
governor knew that he was appoint
s4ng on my recommendation and not
on that of a majority of the Green
vile delegation" "
B. M. Shuman was on Blease's list
of eligibles for circuit Judge.
Smith is one of the leaders of the
Cotton Farmers union and has been
organizing the union. He has also Or
ganized the farmers in the legislature
so that they may legislate intelli-
gently on matters pertaining to
farms.

Too Strong for Opponent.

1OO oO1OAS5 AOA oPHSAAo'
Mrs, Brooks took the elevator to
the second floor of the establishment,
where Mrs. Binford was employed.
AS she stepped from the elevator Mrs.
Brooks inquired where she could find
Mrs. Binford, and as the latter ap-
preached, Mrs. Brooks, without say
ing a single word or giving any
warning, pulled her big revolver
from her muff Mrs. Binford, realiz-
ing her danger, grappled with Mrs.
Brooks and tried to wrest the weapon
from her. Her strength was no
match, however, for that of Mrs.
Brooks, and the latter quickly freed
herself and forced the other woman
against the wall. In the scuffle the
weapon was discharged, the bullet
plowing it's way through Mrs. Bin
ford's hand.
With her victim at bay, Mrs.
Binford stepped back and fired four
times. The second ball struck Mrs.
Binford in the left shoulder, the
third one an inch higher, and the
fourth entered the base Of the neck,
shattering the spinal vertebra. Just
before her victim sank to the floor,
Mrs. Brooks fired again, the bullet
striking Mrs. Binford behind the ear,
coming out through the top of the
