Mangled by Engine.

Darlington, March 28.-While
playing ball this afternoon in a va
cant lot next to the Atlantic Coast
Line Railroad, Sam McCutcheon,
who lives in the Darlington Manufac-
turing company district, suffered the
loss of an arm and other injury from
a passing train.
The ground on which the boys
were playing ball slopes gradually
toward the railroad, and Sam was in
the act of chasing ball down the
grade when suddenly he stumbled
and fell over the embankment to the
railroad, while the train was passing.
His left arm was badly crushed
and one leg bruised considerably.
The arm will have to be taken off,
but the attending physician says
that the leg is probably not injured
seriously. So far as learned the
youth suffered no internal injury and
is expected to recover.

WORLDS BIGGEST LOCOMOTIVE
Santa Fe Has Just Completed it in
the Topeka Shops.

Topeka, Kan, March 23.-The
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe rail-
way company is just completing in
it's Topeka shops the largest railway
locomotive in the world. 1t is an
articulated compound engine and it
is for use in hauling freight trains
over the Arizona grades.
This locomotive is 121 feet long.
It will be operated tender foremost,
as the great length Of the boiler OBJ
structs the view of the engineer. Oil
will be used for fuel as no man could
shovel coal into it fast enough to
keep up the 225 pounds Of steam
pressure required.
The boiler is of the sectional non
explosive type. The locomotive has
duplicate compound air pumps, pow
er reversing apparatus and two elec-
trio headlights, one in front and one
at the rear. The locomotive weighs
100000 pounds and rests on 10 pairs
of driving wheels, two leaders un-
der the pilot and two trailers under
the cab, making "a wheels under the
locomotive itself and IL under the
tender.
The articulated type of locomotive
is in reality two separate sets of en-
gines with their wheels connected by
one long rigid boiler Of tremendous
steam capacity. The rear engine is
rigidly attached to this boiler, while
the forward engine supports it by a
massive slide, so as to let the loco
motive 20 around curves.

Blease Refused Pardon.

Gov. Blease has refused to con-
slider petition for the pardon of w.
B. Avant, the man who, with DR.. G..
G.. Bigham, on September IS, 1909,
killed Dr.. Bigham's young wife on
Murrell's Inlet, 25 miles from
Georgetown, and who, with DR.. Big
ham, after being sentenced to serve
three years and six months in the
State prison, escaped.
The two men left the country be-
fore the appeal had been concluded
in the supreme court and have never
been under arrest, except for the
short time Avant was in the peniten-
tiary for safe-keeping. Avant was
released on habeas corpus proceed
ings. Gov. Blease told the lady who
came to ask for Avant's release that
he would not consider the petition
unless the man were to give up and
be placed under arrest.
The young wife of DR.. Bigham was
killed just at dusk, and the men
claimed that they called to her and
'tthe object" would not answer, so
Avant fired and Mrs. Bigham fell
over and died in few minutes. The
case attracted much attention in
Georgetown and throughout the
State.

sUBDUED GUNDA WITH MOUSE.
Keeper Has Narrow Escape from
Death by Enraged Elephant.

Paul Truman, head keeper of ami
mails at the Bronx Zoo, had a mar
row escape from death when he en-
tered the pen of the elephant Gunda
for the purpose of pairing the corn
of that intractable beast.
This is an operation all elephants
have to undergo in the spring, but
Gunda objected to it. Before Thu
man had made any appreciable head
way the huge creature charged him
into corner from which there was
no apparent possibility of escape.
Several attendants of the elephant
house seized heavy forks to goad the
beast, but Gunda was so far away
from the bar netting that they could
not reach him. Just as it seemed
certain that Truman would be caught
up in the lashing trunk or trampled
under the ponderous feet, he drew
something from his coat pocket and
threw it at Gunda. The elephant
gave trumpet of terror and, swing
ing around, raced to the farthest cor
ner standing there a-trmble. Thu
man slipped past the big fellow, got
through the gate, slammed it, and
said:
"By hooky, that was a close CALI I"
When asked what it was he had
thrown at the elephant with such
success, he replied:
Nothing but live mouse. I al
ways take one with me when tackle
that fellow, but this time the scheme
came near not working. Mr.. Mouse
had eaten hole in the middle lining
of my coat and I came near not get
ting my fingers on it in time. Some
of these days that same trouble may
cost me my life with Gunda."
Afterward Truman said, making
his report to his superior: I might
as well confess that my sole claim to
being able to do more with Gunda
than any one else can do, is based
on the proposition that l always
carry a live mouse when / go into
his enclosure. New York Ameri-
can.

President Smith named Senators
Carlisle, of Spartanburg; Clifton, of
Sumter; and Sullivan, of Anderson;
as the committee from the senate.
Mendel L. Smith, speaker of the
house, refused to name his commit
tee until the act had been approved.
Gov. Blease, upon hearing of the
names of the senate members re-
fused for the time to sign the act.
He gave as his reason, 'Oh, that mine
adversary would write book" stat
ing that all of the senate members of
the committee had written books
about him. He then asked if any
one thought that he would let men
like the senate's committee make an
investigation of the dispensary COM
mission and himself.
Several days ago Gov. Blease said
that he was making little investiga-
ton himself and that when he got
through an investigating committee
would not be needed. Following this
he announced the alleged Fielder Sc
ries of letters, all of which have been
printed.
T. B. Fielder, of Atlanta, on being
notified of the action of the governor,
wired that he deemed it inappropriate
to make any statement at this time.

Won't Appoint Moore.

Gov. Blease said Monday that he
would never appoint Ernest Moore as
special judge to any court in the
State. He said that he would see all
special courts abolished before he
would commission Mr.. Moore.
He made these statements in reply
to a question as to whether he would
commission a special judge for the
Union county court scheduled to open
Monday.
'They can not threaten me-" he
said referring to the letter of Mr..
Moore to R. E. Wylie, in which it was
requested that Mr.. Wylie secure a
commission for Mr.. Moore. He said
that the supreme court had tried to
tell him what to do and that the
supreme court had nothing to do with
him.
