Wife Slayer Not PardOned.

Columbia, May 15.-Formal an
nouncement has been made here that
Gov. Blease has refused to grant the
petition for pardon of w. T. Jones,
the wealthy Union planter, convicted
of having brutally murdered his wife,
this being the endorsement by the
governor: ''In view of the statement
and recommendation made by the
Hon. T. S. Sease, then solicitor and
now Judge. of the Seventh judicial
circuit, who prosecuted the case
against the petitioner for pardon; OF
the history OF the case given by the
Hon. R. w. Memminger, presiding
Judge, at the trial at which the petit
toner or applicant was convicted,
and also of the present status of the
case, I am constrained to deny this
application for pardon and the same
is therefore hereby denied
Jones, now a prisoner in the Union
county jail, has an appeal IN the
State Supreme Court, but it is be-
lieved that the tribunal will again
deny him his requests. 1t is of course
possible that the governor may later
consider the case again. Jones was
convicted of the killing of his wife
either by giving her poison or fore
ing her to take the deadly stuff. That
was three years ago. Since then the
convict has battled desperately in the
courts for reversal, but without sue
cess. He has been sentenced to life
Imprisonment and his third appeal
to the supreme court is upon the
grounds of after-discovered evidence
in his favor.

ANOTHER MISTRIAL.
Jurors Cannot Agree the Second
Time in Sensational CAGE.

Aiken, May 12.-After consuming
the whole of yesterday and late into
last night the ''cow case" resulted
in mistrial on the order of Magis'
trate Smoak this morning. This is
probably the first case in the history
l;of Aiken county, or perhaps in the
State, where a jury was locked up
all night in magistrates misde-
| meanOr case. In this case JudsOn
Fox, white farmer, and two ne.
groes, Squire Matthews and jim
Simpkins, were charged with selling
the meat of bull that had died a
natural death. The case had been
tried once before, resulting in mis-
trial at that time. Yesterday the
crowd was so large and the interest
so intense that Magistrate Smoak re-
moved his court to the court house.
which was almost filled.
1t was charged that the men were
bringing a COW to Aiken when it be-
came afflicted in some manner and
died by the roadside. They are
charged with having 'butchered" the
dead COW and sold the flesh to resi-
dents of that section for mice
young heifer." A number of wit
nesses were sworn testifying that
they ate of the meat and that they
became i'll from it. Other testified
that they ate some of it and that
they were not made sick. The de-
PENDANTS stoutly maintained their in
nocence and declared that when they
had gone a considerable distance to-
ward Aiken with the animal it be-
came irate and "sulled," that no
amount of persuasion could move
the bull, and that as a final resort
they cut it's throat and that the 9TH
er witnesses had mistaken the rigid
ity of the animal, which they say al
ways accompanies 'sull," for death.
The case went to the jury last night
at 8 o'clock and they were not al
lowed to leave the jury room until
9 this morning, when the mistrial
was ordered.

Rrazzils Lodged in Jail.

Lancaster, May 12.-George King
returned at / O'Clock this morning
from holding an inquest last night
over the body of w. P. Vaughn, who
was shot and killed last evening in
the Heath Springs section by Ben and
John Brazil, father and son, as
charged by the verdict of the coro-
ner's jury. The Brazzils are now IN
Jail, having come to town and volun-
tarily surrendered last night.
The tragedy occurred in the yard
of the Brazil home. The trouble
started few days ago, when, it is
said, that Vaughn, who lived across
the road from the Brazzils, went to
the house of the latter and fired sew
eral shots about the premises, some
of the shots hitting the barn.
In the fight yesterday number OF
shots were fired by the Brazzils, as
many as seven taking effect, Vaughn
receiving five pistol wounds and two
gunshot wounds, which were in the
breast, shoulder, back and hand in
which he held his pistol. He had
started toward his home when he
fell and expired in a few moments.
Mr.. Vaughn was son of the late
John VI aughn and was about 35 years
old. He leaves a family. He and
Ran Rrazzil were brothers-in-law.

STACK BROTHERS HELD.
Coroner's Jury Accuses Them of Kill
ing RAYMOND McManuS.

Lancaster, May 15.-Coroner King
returned this morning about four
o'clock from holding an inquest last
night in the Tradesville section, IA
miles from Lancaster, over the body
of Raymond McManus, who was shot
and killed yesterday afternoon by
Walter Stack, as charged by the jury
of inquest. The verdict also charges
Will Stack, brother of Walter Stack,
with being an accessory to the kill
ing. Parties are all white. The
Stacks, both young men, sons OF
Sebe Stack, are now in Jail. They
were on their way to town last night
to surrender when they met the cor
oner going to hold the inquest.
They were taken back to the inquest
and brought here this morning.
The homicide occurred in the yard
of Bunk Stack, kinsman of the other
Stacks, whose home is about mile
from Tradesville, and grew out of a
friendly tussle. The parties, it is
said, were drinking. 1t is alleged
that McManus and Will Stack were
scuff1ing on the ground when the
former seized the latter by the
throat, and that Walter called upon
McManus to turn his brother loose,
and upon his declining to 40 SO

McManus and was about 80 years
old. He leaves a family.

Model Print Shop.

While in Bamberg Saturday the
editor of The Advertiser called at
the office of The Herald to see
Brother knight. Having only a
short time in Bamberg, the east
bound train being almost due, we
regretted that we could not remain
until Mr.. Knight came in. Posi-
bly, he has grown so wealthy and in
dependent that he does not have to
hustle early and late as most OF the
craft have to do, lest the traditional
wolfe >overtake them.
Although we were denied the
pleasure of grasping our friend and
brother by the hand and hearing his
merry, CHEEKY voice, we enjoyed the
privilege of inspecting the fruits of
his labor, the product of his genius,
a model printing, plant. The wri-
ter has heard much of the Bamberg
Herald Office, but, frankly, we had
thought the picture was somewhat
overdrawn or little too highly col
ored. But, instead of being over
stated, the half had not been told.
To begin with, Mr.. Knight planned
and erected a two-story building
to meet the needs of modern we'll
lighted, well-ventilated newspaper
and job office The Herald occu-
pies the entire first floor, the second
floor being rented for other pur-
poses. The front portion of the
ground floor is occupied by The Her.
aid bookstore, next to this is the
editors Office, and the rear portion
of the building is used fof the press
and composing room. The room
has metal ceiling and wainscoating
and the floor is stained. The presses,
stands, cases and cabinets are not
only kept scrupulously clean but
seem to be polished as if ready to un-
dergo a Figid military inspection.
The writer felt as if he were in
specting printing machinery that
was arranged for exhibition pur-
poses at some exposition instead of
being in a practical, everyday, ac-
tually-in-operation newspaper and
lob office. No wonder our friend
knight issues such a neat and at
tractive paper, the appearance OF
which is excelled only by it's value
and real merits as newspaper.
The people of Bamberg should be
very proud of The Herald and give
it loyal and very generous support,
which no doubt they already do.
The writer is indebted to Mr..
Bruce. the intelligent and capable
foreman of The Herald Office, for his
cordial reception and kindly atten-
tion.
Just a word as to Bamberg-and
only a word for our opportunity for
making observations was limited.
The stranger whosenters Bamberg is
impressed with the fact that it is a
wide-awake progressive town. And
Judging from the many big, bright,
brassy automobiles-occupied by
handsomely gowned ladies-that
are to be seen on the streets late in
the afternoon, it is town of con-
siderable wealth. Then stroll out
from the business street, where are
located stately residences surround
ed by beautiful lawns and flower
gardens, one is impressed with the
fact that Bamberg is town of high
order and refinement and culture as
well as wealth.
Let US say in conclusion that there
is not another town in South Caro-
lima of Bamberg's size that has a
hotel the equal from any standpoint
of the Mayfower Inn, which Is so
admirable kept by Mrs. Brooker.-
Edpefield Advertiser.

FIGHT FOR LOVE OF GIRL.
One Combatant in Fistic Encounter
Dying of Injuries.

New York, May 13.-Joseph Sapo-
rana,, an 1S-year-old office boy, is dy-
ing in a hospital here as the result
of fstic duel with his cousin, Jo-
seph Erarda. The battle, fought in
the basement of a downtown office
building, was waged to decide the
rivalry of the two boys for the heart
and hand of a girl they both loved.
Erarda won the fight and the girl
with stinging blow which felled his
rival, and Saporana wrung his hand
in congratulation. An hour later
the latter became unconscious and
surgeons found that his skull was
fractured.
Erarda was locked up.

GOOD IDEA FOR A coTlLLoN
Empire Erect Lends Itself Charming
ly to the Decorations and Favors
Some Pretty conceits.

The hostess who wants to entertain
well and does not have to count PEN
nies should give an empire cotillon.
The idea would lend itself charming
" to the decorations and favors.
Empire wreaths and garlands OF
pink and white roses should decorate
the walls. Tall duh gold empire gas
kets with long handles filed with the
same flower should be placed about
the rooms. And empire screens could
shade the electric lights to give the
soft glow of innumerable wax candles.
For favors she would have many
Charming conceits to choose from.
Among the prettiest would be PIN
cushions In the shape Of these small
empire baskets. Their centers are
Stuffed for the cushion, and they are
made Of dull tarnished gold. in wick
er, with the edges and handles twined
with wreaths of small satin flowers.
And empire work bags made Of dull
brocade with tarnished gold trim
mings, and the picture Of some beauty
Of the French courts framed on the
side make stunning favors.
Empire scarfs in shaded pink and
white, gold and white, and the green
and white of that period are infinitely
attractive used as fayors.
Small gilt mirrors In empire design,
tarnished gold jewel boxes SO typical
of that charming day. and tiny fans
make lovely favors.
Then If all the girls wore empire
frocks, and empire wreaths of pink
and white roses were given them to
carry over their arms, fascinating
effect would be attained.
The empire idea should also be car
ried out in the supper room, the table
decorations Of gilded empire baskets,
filed with pink and white roses. This
idea should show itself in the ices,
and everywhere possible in the table
accessories
