Lancaster, March 26.-Sherif ]. T.
Hunter returned last night from Win
ston- Salem, n. c., where he went for
a negro, John Crockett, wanted here
to answer - charge Of selling crop
under lien. Crockett refused to come,
however, without requisition papers,
whereupon the sheriff wired Gov.
Blease asking him to request Gov.
Kitchin TO instruct the North Caro-
lima sheriff to hold Crockett until
requisition could be made for him, but
so far as Mr.. Hunter knows the gov
ernor has not yet complied with his
request, though several messages We're
exchanged between the sheriff and the
governor, while the former was In
Winston Salem. The kilograms are
as follows:
Sheriff to governor:
II came here for John Crockett, col
ored, charged with selling crop under
lien. He refused to return with me
without requisition. Please request
Gov. Kitchin to instruct the sherin
here to hold Crockett until requisition
can be procured. Answer quick. my
expense"
Governor to the sheriff:
Your wire. Will issue requisition
If Lancaster county will pay expen-
ses."
Sheriff again to governor:
my reason for wiring you at first
to request Gov. Kitchin to instruct the
sheriff here to hold John Crockett,
was on account of hearing Crockett
had employed a lawyer, who was ana
is now making an effort to have him,
Crockett, released. So please comply
with my request and let me hear from
you and oblige."
Governor to the sheriff:
will issue requisition upon receipt
of proper papers. Have so wired
Gov. Kitchin."
Sheriff to governor:
"The sheriff here has received no
notice from Gov. Kitchin to hold
Crockett. Will you please request him
to order the sheriff to hold Crockett
at least until I can place proper
papers in your hands to justify you In
making requisition? I will pay all ex-
penses."
Sheriff Hunter received no reply to
his last telegram, so he returned TO
Lancaster without the negro.

LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP

1t Is a we'll known fact that many
men who buy life insurance do so
without knowing whether or not they
might not have gotten q far better
contract for the same or less money
and in a company with a far better
past record and future outlook than
the one which happened to be repre-
sented by the agent who solicited
them, or whom they felt inclined to
help. In other words they do not look
before they leap. On the other hand
there Is a constantly increasing num-
Der who do look, and this Is
especially true In South Carolina,
as Is proven by the fact that
during 1910 the Mutual Benefit Life
Insurance Co. wrote more new busi-
ness than during any year since 1t
entered the state about 20 years ago.
and about $1,00O,000 more than its
nearest competitor, and the outlook
now Is that during 1911 1t will surpass
its last years record by at least the
amount 1t surpassed all others. II you
will call and have me show you what
the Mutual Benefit has to offer in the
way Of past record, policy contract
and cost, and then sign an application,
you will always be thankful that you
did so, provided, of course, the policy
Is issued.

We Presume That

There isn't a single farmer, or gar
dener, or truckman in York county,
who doesn't raise Irish potatoes. In
fact 1t Is wonderful to note the ever
increasing interest in the Irish pota-
to. We believe that the Irish potato
Is grown, with more or less success in
every state Of the Union. Thousands
of people eat Irish potatoes times a
day. The Irish potato can be easily
kept through the winter IL the people
would raise more Of them. AS 1t Is,
they don't raise enough, and conse-
quently eat them all up before spring.
Moral: Plant Irish potatoes. Plant
lots Of Irish potatoes. Plant Irish po-
tatoes by the bushel-by the sack, and
buy your Seed Irish Potatoes from US.
We have Early Rose from Limerick,
Irish Cobbler from Antrim and Red
Bliss from Donegal. And we've got
everything else that first-class gro
cerymen ought to keep. We will tell
you more next week.

ABOUT CLOCK tuesday night
the following account of Monday
nights hold up of Mol. was re-
ceived from Odgen. AS it is the
latest authe ntic report of the
robbery to reach us. we give it
space today:
Ogden, Utah, Jan. 3, 1911
The Independent, Elko:
Last might at 1875 the Over
land limited No l. going west was
held up by highwaymen, nine miles
from this city at what is known as
Reese Station and most of the
passengers were robbed of their
money and valuables.
The bandits stopped the train at
the siding by means of the block
signals and hut few of the pas
sengers knew the train was being
looted until the desperrdoes came
through the cars with drawn guns.
Two negro porters. William Davis
and A. w. Williams, wi O were
reluctant to give up the fight were
shot, the former being instantly
killed, the latter now lying in the
Dee Hospital Of this city shot
throufih the arm.
Ut is estimated that the bandits
secured from $1,000 Ito $1,000
worth of money and valuables. AS
soon as they had ransacked the
train the bandits made their way
on foot northward stopping at
Warren, two miles away to hold
up crowd of young people coming
from a dance. The robbers took
what spare change the boys had
but refused to take the ladies
watches.
The young people state that the
men we're heavily armed with
rifles and automatic revolvers.
They were well dressed and wore
high topped leather shoes. No
trace of the men have been found
since they left Warren at l O'Clock
this morning. Notwithstanding the
fact that a number of posses of
special officers OF the railway
Company, the police force of the
city and the sheriff's office have
been touring the country since the
robbery was reported. II is
thought that the bandits have
succeeded in getting into the city
and are being shielded by con.
fedrates. A numberof arrests have
been made during the day but the
officers do not think they have
captured the right men. The rail-
road Co has offered reward of
$500 for the apprehension of the
robbers and it is more than likely
that the governor Of the state will
offer reward on the morrow.
