BLEASE WANTED McMASTER?
Carolininian Not Eligible for Militia
Instructor. Department Replies.

Washington, June 15.-About two
weeks ago an effort was made to get
the war department to assign Capt.
George H. McMaster, of the Sth in
fantry, who is South Carolinian, as
instructor of the South Carolina d.
vision of. the National Guard. The
department replied that it could not
grant the request, on the ground that
Capt. McMaster is not at this time
eligible for the post under regula-
4ions of the army. No officer has as
yet been named for the place.
Rumcr has it that Gov. Blease
wrote to the department asking that
Capt. McMaster be named, and that
on being answered as aforesaid, the
governor intimated, in characteris-
tic letter, that if the war department
could not comply with his request it
need not name anybody. 1t is said to
have been the general custom of the
war department to consider the rec
concentrations of the governors of
States with regard to the appoint
ment of militia instructors.

TWINS MARRY TWINS.
Different COlored Flowers Used to
Distinguish Grooms.

Two Missouri twins married two
Texas twins at San Marcos. 80 miles
south of here, yesterday. The brides
were Misses Alma and Alta Moore,
and the grooms Leland and Loran
Tabler, of Adrian, Mo.
The most interesting feature of
the double wedding is that the brides
resembled each other so closely that
their most intimate friends cannot
tell them apart, and that the twin
grooms also look as much alike as
two peas.
The twin brides were dressed alike,
as were the two grooms. TO distin-
guish one from the other different
colored flowers were worn. The two
couples left together on bridal trip
to St. Louis, and will be at home In
Adrian, Mo-, in about two weeks.
The circumstances of the marriage
are quite romantic. The young men
were informed about year ago of
the two ladies, this leading to cor
respondence and an exchange of pho
tographs. Last Christmas the young
men came to see the young women.
This led to the marriage.

The Use of Nitrate of Soda.

Nitrate OF soda is the most avail
able source of ammonia as it is en-
tirely soluble. It does not have to
undergo decomposition to become
available as do the other sources Of
ammonia, but as soon as it reaches
the moisture of the soil it is dissolved
Immediately and is at once available
to the plant as food. Owing to the
readiness with which it dissolves, it
should be used with care as 1t Is Ii
able to be washed out of the soil by
heavy rains.
Nitrate Of soda should not be used
with stable manures as identification
is liable to take place and thus the
nitrogen is lost, as it passes into
the air as free nitrogen. The time
to apply nitrate of soda to grain Is
in the early spring, from March 1st
to March 18th, at the rate of 100
pounds per acre. 1t should be ap-
piled to cotton as a top dressing
when the first squares are formed.
Most farmers make the mistake of
waiting too late to apply the nitrate
of soda to the cotton and corn. 1t
should be applied to corn when the
corn is about waist high.
The yield of sweet potatoes can be
enormously increased by applying
200 pounds after the vines have thor
oughly covered the ground. Apply
after a rain and after the dew has
dried off. The amount that should
be applied to cotton and corn varies
with the fertility of the soil, the
amount of other fertilizers used and
the seasons. A wet year nitrate of
soda should be applied in one or two
applications and it is usually more
profitable to use it wet year than
during dry one. At the Experiment
Station we have used as much as
200 pounds per acre on corn and cot
ton proftably. Nitrate OF soda Is
an especially valuable fertilizer to
gardeners and truck farmers. 1t
produces a rapid healthy growth in
vegetables.
The use of nitrate Of soda as a
side dressing produces a darker
green foliage in plants ard somewhat
retards their maturity. If, however,
it is used in the early growth of the
plant, it may hasten maturity. 1t
should be used largely as side ap-
plication and other sources of am
monia should be used at time of
planting.

Director S. G. Experiment Station.

BANK PRACTICALLY WRECKED.
Tarboro Shortage Probably 100000.
Cashier Prepared for Suicide.

Tarboro, N. c., June 15.-State
Examiner Doughton reported to-day,
after cursory examination, that the
alleged shortage of Cashier Hart,
who committed suicide yesterday,
and Assistant Cashier Hussey, who is
in Jail in default of bond, will prob
ably reach 100000 and may run
considerably in excess of that sum.
The bank is said to be practically
wrecked and the depositors may be
loser to a considerable amount. The
true conditions will not be known
until Saturday. The funeral of the
cashier took place to-day.
Developments to-day showed that
Hart prepared for his suicide. He
had stated some time ago that he was
prepared for that step. His wife
urged him, it is said, to take her
property and make good the shortage,
but Hart refused, saying he would
take his medicine. A note was found
on the body, stating that Hart had
this step in mind for some days.

DIED FROM BEATING.
Tale of Barbarous Cruelty Told at
Inquest at Spartanburg.

Spartanburg, June 14.-Because
she objected to her husbands selling
whiskey, Mrs Mary Lawter, who re-
Gently came to Arlington in a remote
section of this county, from near Sa-
luda, n. c., was so severely beaten
by him with a hickory stick that she
died from the effects of it, accord
ing to the finding of the coroner's
jury, which rendered this verdict at
the inquest held by Coroner J. S.
Turner Tuesday evening: eve, the
jury, find according to the evidence
that Mary Lawter came to her death
from a whipping at the hands Of An
dy Lawter, her husband"
Lawter was at once arrested and
committed to Jail. AS the alleged
whipping occurred in Polk county,
N. c., the authorities of that county
have been notified and Lawter will
be held here until the sheriff of Polk
county comes for him.
The witnesses told a tale of bar
barous cruelty on the part of Lawter.
He whipped his wife several times,
they said, and once seized a gun and
tried to kill her, but was restrained:
Mrs. Lawter finally left him, saying
she would live on dry bread and
water before she would live with
her husband and take the beatings
such as he had been giving her. She
went to live with her sister, Mrs.
Lucy Owens, at Arlington, and it was
at her home that she suddenly died
Tuesday morning. The most severe
whipping had been administered, it
was testified, last Sunday two weeks
ago. Broadus Lawter, her 9-year-old
son, testified at the inquest.
"My father whipped my mother
with a hickory as big as a fishing
pole while she was making up the
bed. He got the gun three times to
shoot mother with. Ben Garrett kept
father from shooting mother"
Tildye Hendrix, Mrs. Lucy Owens
and w. E. Owens, the 1atter's hus-
band, testified that Mrs. Lawter told
them she was beaten because she OBJ
jected to her husbands selling whis-
key and having it in the house.
DR.. W. F. Brockman, who perform
ed the autopsy, testified that he found
Mrs. Lawter had been enciente. An
examination Of her heart showed it
to be normal, but there was small
clot of blood on which the physician
said: 1T drifted to the right side of
the heart, thereby stopping instantly
the hearts action, death resulting. I
believe some injury to this mother
while in health has caused such an
abnormal condition to exist
Solicitor J. c. OTIS said tonight
that although Mrs. Lawter died in
Spartanburg county and her husband
was arrested here, Lawter would have
to be tried in North Carolina, since
it was there, according to the testi-
mony, that the beating was inflicted.

Bomb Explodes in Conduit.

Chicago, June 16.-For the third
time within a month an explosion oc-
Cured to-day in a cable conduit of
the Commonwealth Edison Company,
under the subway of a railroad track.
The blast shattered windows in
buildings within a radius of block
and threw several families from their
beds.
The police believe the explosion
was caused by a bomb set off by la
Dor agitators. Officials of the Edison
Company, however, say they have
had no recent trouble with their
employees and are unable to solve
the cause of the mysterious explosi-
ons.

Inherited Millions, Now Bankrupt

George Law Davidson, who has
never been in business and never had
an occupation, and who in one way or
another has disposed of 100000
or more, all inherited, filed petition
in the bankruptcy court, of New
York, which stated that he had abso-
lutely no assets and owed creditors
$16,935.
Davidson originally inherited $780,
900 from his grandmother, Mrs. Alb
bey E. Layton, which, lasted him a
year. His uncle, William Layton,
then bequeathed him s435,00O, which
went in ten months. Next his
mother died leaving a trust fund of
100000, which yielded him $4,000
a year. The $4,000 went in year,
with $4,000 raised on some property
and $4,000 borrowed from relatives.
Davidson was married twice. His
first wife was Mary Baldwin of New
Jersey. They were divorced within
a week. He then wed Miss Lillian
L. Hall, of this city. In 1901, when
his first wife sued for $4,000 year,
Davidson first entered bankruptcy.
His creditors claiming $4,000 at
that time, Davidson calmly displayed
the testamentary provisions of his
deceased relatives, all of which pro-
vided that his income was not to be
attached by creditors. Then he went
his way smiling.

To illuminate Orangeburg.

Orangeburg, June 15.-Orange-
burg's great white way is now being
extended, and when completed this
city will have practically all her
business section brilliantly lighted.
Extensions are being made on
Broughton, south Church and St.
John streets. The great white way
placed upon Russell street some
months ago has proven a big adver-
tisement for Orangeburg.
