First Shock Early.
1t was 4:3G o'clock this morning
when the first shock was felt Ac-
cording to the meteorological observ-
atory, the greatest intensity was
reached al the end of the first minute
but the instruments continued to re.
cord the shock for fifteen minutes
more.
More than half of the dead airount-
ed for were soldiers. They were
raught beneath the falling walls of
the artillery barracks in San Cosma,
a locality near the Mexican Central
station. Another place where the
earth quake took its toll of death in
considerable numbers was at the city
power plant of the street car COM
pany Here six were killed and six
wounded Two others were found in
the debris and consisting partly OF
steel rails which had been stacked
partly in the iron and wood depart
ments which collapsed
Victims Were Poor.
The victims were inhabitants OF
little shacks built along the side of
the structure. With two excetions
and death list was made of single
cases and in some instances two or
three caught beneath falling walls in
the poorer buildings of the district
most serioosly affected.

Earth Quake Which Rent Capital OF Mexico
Sent Note OF Tragedy Into Reception
In Honor Of Madero's Arrival

Although the shock which was felt
in all parts Of the city few realized
the magnitude of the catastrophe until
late in the forenoon, due to the fact
that the causlaites We're consigned
to comparatively small area.
Accustomed as the residents are
to earth quake shocks and to their
harmlei sness on former occasions
they were not slow to learn that this
was the most serious shock of recent
years.
No property Of Americans was dam
aged and with the exception of one
Chinese killed no foreigners were
injured
In the barracks where the soldiers
were killed twelve women also lost
their lives. They were the wives of
the artillery men. These women have
the privilege Of spending the night
within the walls of the barracks
Seyenty-two soldiers were sleeping in
the house. approximately half were
quartered on the first floor and the
remainder on the second. The outer
walls fell away and the roof crashed
: upon sleeping men hurled them
through the floor on their comrades
below.
Bodies OF Soldiers Recovered
Ihe bodies Of thirty soldiers have
been recovered, three were injured
and sixty wounded.
Three blocks from the barracks in
the yards al the Mexican Central
which Madero had been scheduled to
enter presented another spectacle of
the shocks intensity. There a lone
wall separating the walls from those
OF the Mexican railway was thrown
down. A Mexican locomotive engine
was lying at it side. The warehouse
of the Mexican Central is almost a
wreck, one wall and portion of the
building having collapsed. About one
third of the round house was torn
down. No casualties were reported
here.

GIVE HOME TIE PREFERENCE.

Governor Blease believes in
employing home talent when the
opportunity is afforded, and bis
position in the matter of employ
ing an architect for getting up
the plans for the new building
which is to be erected at Win
throp college is correct. The
board in charge of this matter
employed an architect from Char
lotte. The governor is the ex.
omcio chairman Of the board, and
he protested against going out
of the State for an architect
when there can be obtained in
this State equally as good serv-
ice, but the majority of the board
had already made the contract
with the man from Charlotte:
nevertheless the governor is
right. The governor is also right
in his position about acquisitions
from other States for persons
charged with being guilty OF
s;misdemeanor." Most of these
misdemeanors consist of men who
have left their homes owing
little debt and the criminal ma
chinery is resorted to for the col,
lection of the debt. Frequently
when the party is arrested the
charge is withdrawn upon the
payment of the debt.

IS JUNES 4 CONVICT?

There is in the penitentiary at
Columbia ':for safe keeping" one
John J. Jones, convicted of the
charge of manslaughter for the
killing Of Abe Pearlstine at
Branchville. and hewas sentenced
to the penltentiary for term Of
years. A notice of appeal was
made, but pending this appeal,
Jones has been in the peniten
tiary; not as a prisoner, but as
"a safe-keeper. Why 1t should
be necessary to have this prisoner
in the penitentiary instead of the
jail Of the county in which the
crime was committed other than
for Mr.. Jones own convenience
does not appear. Mr.. Jones is a
lawyer by profession; this prob
ably has something to do with
the extraordinary privilege being
accorded to him. It has often
been claimed that human life in
South Carolina is cheap, and
that it is of rare occurrence a
white man can be convicted when
charged with homicide. The jury
which tried the Jones case heard
the evidence, rendered a verdict.
and the trial Judge fixed the sen
tence. The mandate of the court
has never been complied with.

SHALL We HAVE HORSE RACEss

The racing game has been leg,
islated out of a number Of States:
and now tits said there is a proba,
bility Of the sport heading fo1
South Carolina. Those who op'
pose bringing the races to this
State claim that they do not OBJ
ject to the races but it is the bet
ting they are opposed to. What
would a horse race be without
betting? A few years ago a bill
was introduced to permit the
establishment of race course
near Charleston, and if our mem
ory is correct Senator Blease,
now governor, opposed the meas,
IRE and succeeded in having in
corporated into it an amend
ment to prohibit betting. This
amendment was knocked out
in free conference; and the
bill became a law without this
amendment. The probability is
that al the next session there
will be some legislation looking
to the prohibition of these racing
meets in this State. But if bet
ting is to be allowed at the races
at the State fair, we see no rea-
son to exclude it from other
courses in the State.

The idea Of establishing a new
morning daily in Columbia is not
dead yet, SO we heard yesterday.
There is in serious contempla-
ton a syndicate with a bunch
Of money considering the start
ing of a morning newspaper at
the capitol in the near future.
To make a successful investment
we believe the project will d.
minish the bunch's bank roll the
first two years, and if they can
not stand being hard pinched for
at least two years our advice
would be, if asked, to stay away.
Columbia's morning field is we'll
covered. True, there are many
who disagree with the policy of
the paper at times, but it must
be conceded it's management has
done a lot Of hard and effective
work for that city as well as the
State at large, therefore we say
to go in to crowd out such a
newspaper is q huge undertak-
ing which will take pluck. perse-
verance, and the cash.

High Prices :'or Tobacco.
Editor The Manning Times:

ECltor Inc Manning Times:
Will you please publish the following
information to tobacco growers OF Clar-
endon and adjoining counties:
I have recently mace thorough can.
vasS OF the tobacco situation and pros.
poets in general for South Carolina and
Eastern North Carolina, and from all
that can gather this certainly is going
to be the banner year for our growers.
People who have plants certainly are in
the swim. l find that they are scarce
rot only in South Carolina, but in
Eastern North Carolina, too. I also
find that good many farmers did not
prepare beds at all, owing to the high
price OF cotton last year, and especially
was this true in North Carolina. Ialso
understand that the tobacco crop last
year was 81, 5,00G, 900 lbs. short Of demand.
So you can readily see the need OF plant
ing all the tobacco you possibly can this
year.
The above figures come from men
who are in the business and this is not
hot air talk. Water your plants and
save what you do not need for your
neighbor. I copy the following from
the Southern Tobacco Journal:
We are of the opinion after close
study of the situation, that farmers in
the bright belts will do well to increase
their planting over last year. We do
not mean that they should plant an alb
normal crop, but as the crop that is just
passed into history was both short and
common, we believe the demand for
brights OF desirable kinds will oe great
next season at good paying figures.
We would therefore urge Eastern
North and South Carolina to plant as
much tobacco as they can we'll care for.

of the writer who signs the letters
over that name published in The

attempts at satire is connected in
some way with the paper. The
writer from Cope is not alone in
his belief; there are many who
have the same opinion, and these
think The States opposition to
the present governor could be
made more effective if it would:
in a conservative but open man.
ner, make known its opposition
and the reasons therefor. If The
State would commend the good
things done by the governor, and
in a proper manner criticize his
mistakes it would be rendering
the State a good service and its
influence would be a potent force:
as it is, the masses look upon
The States opposition as being
prompted by persona. spleen aud
that it would hesitate at nothing
unfair to accomplish its purpose
to cripple Governor Blease in the
public estimation.
We, too, have criticized the
governor when we thought he
should be criticized, and will con-
tinue so to do, but at the same
time those of his acts which we
approve we shall and have com
mended. In other words we are
disposed to be fair, and we
think every newspaper should
strive to oe.

Editor The Manning Times:

Editor The Manning Times:
In your issue of the 18th, you
publish an article "a Worthy
Call" written by Hon. J. Il.
Lesesne. The article written is
to the point and explains itself.
I hope the call to meet at Man
ming will be responded to by the
young men to whom it is ad.
dressed. and a movement by
them will be set on foot to erect
on our court house square a
monument to perpetuate the
memory of Clarendon's soldiers
in the late war between the
States. To erect a monument
to the honor of the Clarendon
Confederate soldiers is duty of
the people of Clarendon. Forty
six years have elapsed since the
last gun flashed for Southern
Independence, and behold. there
is as yet no monument.
In conversation few months
ago with a gentleman who is a
resident of Manning he sug-
gested to the writer a plan
to bring about the erection CT
a monument to perpetuate the
memory of Clarendon's Confed-
crate soldiers, and this gentle
man further said that with the
plan he suggested be would vii.
lingly contribute one hundred
dollars.
It has been said that twenty
FIVE hundred dollars will build a
suitable monument. Could not
twenty four more men in Clar-
endon contribute hundred dol
lars a piece to this laudable IN.
dertaking?
A word to the wise is suffi-
cient. and Mr.. Editor, I will say
nothing more along this line at
present.

There is now a chance for the
appointing power OF the governor
to have a test in the courts. In
the case of the appointment of the
magistrate at Greenwood who
was appointed by Gov. Blease,
his predecessor refused to turn
over the books and papers of the
Office claiming the governor had
no power to appoint without the
recommendation of the legisla.
tive delegation, the matter now
comes up before Judge Watts un.
derarule directing the magistrate
holding over to show cause why
he should not vacate the Office,
and turn it's effects over to bis
successor. We presume the de.
cision OF Judge Watts will settle
the controversy so far as the
governor is concerned.
