Crushed to Death by Train.

Newberry, Feb. 10.-About one
half mile above the city limits, mid
way between Newberry and Helena,
to-day Sumter J. Carter was killed
by Southern passenger train No. 1S.
The engineer of the train gave the
signals and slowed up his train, but
he says Mr.. Carter threw himself
across the track just in front of the
running train. His head was severed
from the body and ground into an
unrecognizable mass, his brains be-
ing scattered along the track for sew
eral yards.
Whether he threw himself delib-
erately across the track or slipped on
the muddy ground and fell across
the track will probably never be
known.
Some years ago Mr.. Garter was an
efficient member of the Newberry po-
lice force, but for the last few years
he has been working in the cotton
mills here. He was about 60 years
old and leaves wife, and also five
children by a former marriage.

A 55.STORY BUILDING.
Big New York Structure Will Tower
to a Height Of $50 Feet.

From the profits of his five and
ten-cent stores Frank w. Woolworth
is about to erect the tallest Office
building in the world on the Wester-
ly side of Broadway, New York city.
It will be $50 feet high or about so
feet higher than the Metropolitan
tower, and nearly $50 feet taller than
the Singer tower.
The idea is to have the main build
ing of from 27 to 80 stories. Sur
mounting this, directly in the mid
die, will rise a tower about 80 to 80
feet square, containing 25 stories,
making 55 stories in all.
This new skyscraper, which WILL
only be exceeded in height in the
world by the Eiffel tower, 9S5 feet,
will cost $12,0O0,OOO, or more. The
land, which has been acquired in the
past year, has cost about s5,OOO,OOO.
The building will cover a total area
of $4,000 square feet and there will
be $4,000 cubic feet in the structure.
1t will be of the highest fireproof
construction.

"The people of the South he said,
''are no longer supine and listless'
With wonderful courage, unsurpass-
ed energy and tireless effort they
have transformed that section into a
new country, with new aspirations
and new purposes. But there is
something even better than all this.
The coming of the Spanish war
quickly proved to the world that the

PATTERSON'S PARDON RECORD.
He Gave Freedom to 1888 Criminals
During His Four-Year Term.

Nashville, Tenn, Feb 9.-During
his administration of four years Ex-
Governor Malcolm R. Patterson par
doned 1888 criminals, the offenses
for which they were convicted rang
ing from weapon-carrying to the
most grave and serious charge
brought against the criminal body,
murder in the first degree.
Two hundred criminals inprison-
ed for murder in the first and second
degrees were during Mr.. Patterson S
administration, pardoned, their I'M
mediate release being given them.
Many other sentences were commut-
ed for periods Of varying degrees OF
length.
One of the most interesting cases
in this connection is that of Powers
Gentry, who will hang on the 18th
day of this month unless pardoned
by Governor Hooper. Gentry was
give respite of sixty days and his
case will be the first serious case to
come before the new governor.
In spite of the general sentiment
against selling liquor, pardons have
been issued to 1856 prisoners indicted
on this charge during the four
years administration lately closed
Fifty-three of the 156 cases were
pardoned since April IA, 1910.
Among the charges brought against
this latter class were illicit distilling,
whiskey selling and a few cases OF
near-beer selling.
Patterson's pardon record contains
Executive clemency issued to 197
criminals pardoned on charge OF
larceny. A large proportion of that
number have been pardoned during
the last few months.
Pardons issued to criminals during
the last four years indicted on mis-
cellaneous charges have amounted to
562. The larger number of these
miscellaneous cases have been issued
to prisoners who had been committed
to the penitentiary for assault OF
varying degrees of seriousness. A
large number were issued to prison
ers indicted on the charge of man
slaughter, both voluntary and invol-
untary. Gaming and tippling, en-
/, bezzlements, robberies, forgeries and
other serious charges were among
the indictments of those in the mis-
cellaneous class. Less grave indict-
ments have been brought against
those charged with housebreaking,
public drunkenness, bigamy and
other misdemeanors.

COUNTY OPTION IN ALABAMA.
Parks Bill Passes House by Vote OF
SO to II.

Montgomery, Ala, Feb. 9.-By a
vote of So to "A, the house lat 8
o'clock this afternoon passed the
Parks local option bill after a debate
lasting five hours. AS the senate is
known to be overwhelmingly in ia
vor of local option bill it is believ-
ed that the Parks bill will be rushed
through that body and become a law
before the end of next week, This
does not mean that the State will be
thrown open to the sale of liquor i'm
mediately, for the Parks bill was SO
amended to-day so as to make it in
operative until regulation measures
to accompany it are enacted.
During the discussion the galleries
of the house were crowded to suffo-
cation by local optionists and prohi-
bitionists and the lobby between the
two halls of the legislature was filled
with lobbyists and leading men from
all parts of the State. Many women
were in the throng. In the gallery
were the wife and daughter of Gov,
O'Neill, both deeply interested in the
measure, which represents the gov
ernor's views on the liquor question.
Throughout the long debate telegraph
messengers followed each other hur-
riedly to the floor of the house bear
ing kilograms to the various mem
bers to vote against the Parks bill or
for it.
Pleads for Dispensary.
Speaker Almond opened the dis
cussion for his dispensary bill on a
motion to substitute for the Parks
bill. He argued against the reestab-
lishment of the open saloon and said
his bill would promote sobriety, peace
and concord and carry out the plat
form of the Democratic covention
which nominatedSGov. O'Neill. The
motion was lost by vote of sc to Al.
There were many speeches on both
sides.
The Parks bill provides that As per
cent. of the number that voted for

on the question of wet or dry. If
wet then an election is ordered on

INFURIATED HOG KILLS HORSE.
Big Boar Disembowels Horse which
Has to be Shot.

Big Boar Disembowels Horse which
Has to be Shot.
Aiken, Feb. 12.-As the result of
the mad rushes of an infuriated
boar, the horse belonging to Mr.. Will
Taylor had to be killed yesterday af-
ternoon, after it had been fatally
gored in the side.
The affair happened at the farm
of Mr.. w. Rothrock, just on the
northern boundary of the city. On
this farm Mr.. Rothrock has a num-
ber of highzclass hogs, and among
these is fine Berkshire boar weigh
ing about 800 pounds. Yesterday
they were moving some other hogs
to the place and they drove double
team into the hog yard. The big
boar in some way became infuriated
and rushed wildly about the yard.
1t was driven away several times,
but finally ran around the team and
drove one of it's tusks through the
side of the horse.
The horse was>disembowled, med
ical aid was summoned. After some
several hours work on the animal it
was seen that relief was impossible,
and it was finally decided to kill the
horse to end it's misery.

JONES SEEKING PARDON?
Pearlstine's Slayer in Pen, but Not
''PrisOner."

Columbia, Feb. 12.-The proceed
ings in the matter of John j. Jones,
who was convicted of killing Abe
Pearlstine, at Branchville, are, to say
the least, unusual.
There was a great furry and
flourish in the newspapers, from the
home end of the line, that Jones had
abandoned his appeal to the supreme
court and that he was going to be-
gin his sentence of ten years and one
month for the killing of Pearlstine,
and thereby perhaps engage public
sympathy.
Allowed Many Privileges.
1t is true that Jones is in Colum-
bia and it is also true that he receives
his mail and friends at the peniten-
tiary, but he has not abandoned his
appeal and he has not begun his
service. He does not wear stripes,
which is the first essential of pris
oner. and he has not "matriculated'
as convict.
If he has been entered as a prison
er he would not be allowed to do as
he pleases and he would have been
required to don stripes, which he has
not been required to do, as all other
prisoners must do.
IF Not Prisoner. What?
Superintendent Griffith has been
advised by counsel for Jones that
Jones has not abandoned his appeal
and until he does this he cannot le-
gally be considered a prisoner and
Capt. Griffith does not so regard
him.
The further fact appears that
Jones is conducting from the peni-
tentiary a campaign for his pardon.
He is in conference with his attor-
neys, or at least with Columbia at
torneys, with reference to his par
don, and it was stated that on yes
terdsy a lot of blanks were taken
him, and that he will send these
blanks out to secure signatures ask
ing for his pardon, when, as a mat
ter of fact, he does not appear to
have begun his sentence.
Appeal Not ENTIRELY Abandoned"
The invariable rule of previous
administrations has been that as long
as a party contended for his liberty
before the courts, he was in no po-
sition to ask for pardon, and that a
pardon could only be asked for after
the remedies of the court had been
entirely exhausted or abandoned.
To the outside world Jones would
appear to be a prisoner actually serv-
ing his sentence, whereas Capt. Grif-
fifth is advised by Jones's counsel in
Orangeburg, that the appeal has not
been "entirely abandoned" and Jones
has not been asked to wear stripes
the usual apparel of prisoners in
the State penitentiary.
Why Taken to Penitentiary?
If Jones's appeal has not been
abandoned, it appears somewhat pc
culiar that he should have been
brought to the penitentiary instead
of remaining in the jail at Orange
burg until the supreme court passes
on his case.
Inwhat purported to be an inter-
view with Jones, while he was in
the Orangeburg Jail, published in an
Orangeburg paper, Jones was accred-
tied with the statement that he was
going to the penitentiary to begin
his sentence and would perform any
work to which he was assigned, the
inference being that the appeal
would be abandoned. Contrary state
ments are made now. 1t is all very
curious.
