ON THE ROAD TO RECOVERY
Sure Sign That Miss Amanda Lowry
Was Going to Get
Better.

There were certain traits which
distinguished Miss Amanda Lowry
from most of her neighbors, and al
though not all of them were adj
mirable traits, they were Miss
Amanda's, and therefore accepted
lovingly by her friends.
When she was taken suddenly i'll
with pneumonia, the village was in
great distress.
81 went in to see her just a min
ute," said a fearful friend, "and she
scarcely looked at me. l don't think
she really sensed / was there. But
yet they say she's a mite better, if
she can only get some strength into
her. The fever's gone, but she lacks
interest, she's so weak"
A few days later, still fearful, but
joyous, the same friend made more
encouraging report.
"She looked at me, Amanda did,
where | sat, way across the room,
and then she beckoned to me. You
go take a look at yourself in the
glass; she said, and tell me if you've
got your brooch on straight. 1t looks
canted to the left, to me-
"And 'twas" said the neighbor,
wiping her eyes. "She could hardly
speak above a whisper, but when I'd
straightned it, she said, That's all
right and turned over and went to
sleep. She's going to get well p-

To IMPEACH GOVERNOR BLEASE
Continued from page IL

for a few hours yesterday 1t is
reported that he came to the city
for the purpose of holding a con-
ference with Attorney Thomas B.
Fielder, of this city, but no con-
firmation of this report could be
secured last night.
His visit was of special interest
In view of the fact that only a few
days ago 1t was reported from Co
lumbia that an effort would be
made at the next meeting of the
Columbia legislature to impeach
Governor Blease on charges grow
ing out of his conduct while a state
senator in connection with the old
dispensary."
Nothing Known of it in Columbia.
That such a conference was held
In Atlanta Saturday was a sur
prise to the usual news sources in
Columbia, when they were asked
about the incident. Really there
was very strong inclination in
that city to discredit the entire
story despite the fact that it was
known a similar story had been
published a few days ago in one
OF the Eastern papers, under a Co
lumbia date line. 1t was further

Mr.. Lyon was reached by long

story from Atlanta, said:
There is absolutely not a
word Of truth in that statement, so

1t before this minute, and you are

driving to the mines of the Super

day, with the sem monthly I.dy
Tor the miners, Davis Steen was
shot and instantly killed by a high
wayman. His father, William J..
Steen, who was in the buggy with
him, caught the body of
his son as it toppled over
The money, $3,4OO was saved.
Later in the day Quadrata Or
righelli, an Italian, was arrested
suspected of knowing something of
the crime and it was with difficulty
that troopers of the State constab-
ulary prevented the elder Steen from
throttling him.
The shooting occurred almost
within a stones throw of the Steen
residence, near Woodville. Father
and son were driving along the
road when two men appeared and
opened fire, one with a revolver,
and the other with a shotgun. The
Steens were armed, and remember
Ing the experiences of other pay
masters in the country of Western
pennsylvania, each had his hand on
his revolver.
Five minutes after they left the
Steen home with the money and
were passing an abandoned mine a
man appeared in the road. Without
warning he opened fire with a re-
Volver, as another man came in
TO view from the other side. He
lifted shotgun and fired. Both
shots were. directed at David Steen.
who was driving and both took
hn
right hand, cutting the reins, and
the other buried itself in his body,
near the heart. The reins dropped
and the frightened horse sprang
forward. With a dying groan the
dying man toppled over toward his
aged father, who encircled him
with one arm, and drawing a re-
volver began shooting at the ban
dts.
They did not reply, and after
standing in astonishment for
moment, turned and ran swiftly to-
ward the hills. The older Steen,
