tive Hardwick of Georgia, chairman
of the special house committee named
to Investigate the sugar trust, called
at the White House to-day and asked
the president to lay before the COM

important part of the coming in
quiry.

HALLE GOLD NINE SOLD.
Sale Made by Receivers Under Order
of Court.

Lancaster, June 5.-The Halle
gold mining property in Lancaster
county, consisting of 1895 acres,
was sold here to-day at public auc-
ton, together with all the machin-
cry and personal property on it. The
sale was made under order of court
by the receivers, Chas. D. Jones, of
Lancaster, and L. w. Amerman, of
New York. The property brought
$4,000 and was purchased by John
T. Stevens, of Kershaw, for himself
and associates, Leroy Springs, Chas.
D. Jones, J. H. Witherspoon and E.
D. Blakeney, who will organize a
company to operate the mine. The
work of repairing the machinery and
pumping water out Of the mine
will be begun at once, and it is
thought that the mills will be run
ming within 80 days.
By those in a position to know, it
is believed that the purchasers Of the
property have secured bargain, the
land alone, 213 acres of which, is
heavily timbered with long-leaf
pines, and is said to be worth the
purchase price, to say nothing Of the
mineral interest. In fact the next
highest bid at the sale was $68,O0O,
made by prominent planter in the
neighborhood, w. U. Clyburn. The
buildings on the place, it is stated,
cost $4,000.

Shoots at Fleeing Negro.

Brunson, June 2.-Considerable
excitement was occasioned here Tues
day, just about dark, when three pls-
tol shots rang out, quickly, in the
residence part of the town. The wife
of a merchant was sitting alone on
the veranda of her dwelling house
when a young negro, about 1S years
of age, came to the steps and stated
that he had called for so cents due
the washwoman who had sent him to
make the collection. The woman,
recognizing the negro, stepped into
the room and taking the change from
her purse returned to the veranda
and handed it to him. The negro
fingered, and finally made insulting
proposals to her. Quickly stepping
into the house, she secured a pistol.
On coming again to the front, she
saw him hastily going out Of the front
gate. She began firing at him asahe
ran. and fired three shots-all the
loaded chambers of the pistol-as he
fed in the gathering darkness. A
searching party found him about 3
o'clock this morning in a negro's
house about one mile from the town.
He was brought back and identified
by the lady whom he had accosted,
and was hurried to the Hampton jail.
He is a loafing negro youngster OF
the town, and is known by the name
of Reverend Best.

which has had large transactions with
the State dispensary. Thereafter, on
March 16, 1905, you addressed an
other communication to the same
party as follows:
Dear Sir: Since writing you on
the 26th ultimo, saw Hub. He hand
ed me the five hundred. Hereafter
either deal directly with me or
through J. F. Confidently, cannot
rely on Hub in money matters. Hope
to see you soon and report happen
ings. Very truly yours,

l charge further that your election
to the Office of governor of the State
of South Carolina was compassed By
methods and means contrived by you,
your law partner. Fred Dominick-
now a member of your winding-up
commission-your henchmen and al
lies. whose master hands are dex-
terously skilled in the art Of corrup-
ton and debauchery as the result OF
many years of practice in this art,
The specific means to which I refer
being the raising of gigantic cor
ruption fund, which was used under
your direction to debauch a large
portion of the electorate Of the State
OF South Carolina. serve you with
notice that have full roster of the
names of the solicitors of this fund
and a. partial list of the contributors.
Notwithstanding the fact that this
fund was disbursed under your direc-
ton and supervision, you signed an
affidavit prescribed by the statute
of your State in which you declared
that the disbursements made by you
in your candidacy for governor were
infinitesimally small.
Socially Ostracised.
As to your conduct as citizen 1
have no concern. understand, how
ever that it is true that because OF
your conduct you are very largely
denied the privilege Of association
with the ladies and gentlemen OF
your State; that you are scorned OF
the one and despised of the other;
that in effect you are socially ostra-
cised and that your most intimate as
sociates belong to the criminal class
es. do not state as a reason for
your conduct, but as matter of fact,
that, instead of frequenting the social
clubs Of your city where convivial
gentlemen are wont to assemble to
appease their appetites, you do your
tippling daily at the bars OF the
"blind tigers" of your city, in viola
ton of the laws of your State which
you are under oath to conserve and
protect. I am without information
as to whether your visits to the one
and not to the other are from choice
or necessity, but from my knowledge
of the gentlemen who compose these
social clubs and from the character
of gentlemen who usually compose
the membership of like institutions,
the inference upon my part is JUS
titled that it is with you a matter OF
necessity and not choice.
STEPPED in crime and infamy as
you are, gravely doubt whether you
will pursue either Of the courses
above indicated for redress of your
grievances. Your failure to do the
one or the other will necessarily place
you in the category of coward or
thief, one or both, and no gentleman
could thereafter afford to take fur
ther notice of your vaporings.
However, when the opportune time
presents itself you and yours will
hear further from me through the
proper channels.

let his calves lose what Is known az
calf fat" 1t is well known that young
animals gain more rapidly In proper.
ton to their live weight and to LOG
pounds of food than do older animals.
That is, they not only made more
economical use of their feed than the
older animals, but they take a shorter
time to make a certain total gain. The
man who turns off steer that weighs
1000 pounds, has, if that calf weighed
100 pounds at birth been given 10 per
cent. of the total weight by the dam,
while the man who keeps the animal
till it weighs 1880 pounds has been
given only per cent. The man who
can make a steer weigh 1000 at II
months has more return for his
trouble than the man who keeps II
"a months, with an additional weight
of only $50 pounds.
Butchers, too, have changed to suit
the demand of the consumer. Al
though meat is generally considered
a luxury in the diet of the poor mans
family 1t still remains an absolute
necessity in the diet of the better
classes. But, where people formerly
ordered large roasts and steaks, they
are ordering steaks and rOasts now
that are from so to rs per cent small
er on account of the advanced prices
They find that if they get a small
roast from large animal that it II
long on bone. The butcher then t
suit the demands for smaller bone de
mands smaller animals, and during
the last few months they have beer
willing to offer, not premium oil
smaller steers so far as dollars pc

brought the price of small steers u
so close to that of the large ones tina
there is really a premium on littl
steers when we consider the cost c

BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my first baby was six months
old he broke out on his head with little
bumps. They would dry up and leave
a scale. Then it would break out
again and it spread all over his head.
All the hair came out and his head
was scaly all over. Then his face
broke out all over in red bumps and
it kept spreading until it was on his
hands and arms. l bought several
boxes of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time.
He had it about six months when a
friend told me about Cuticura. | sent
and got bottle OF Cuticura Resolvent,
cake of Cuticura Soap and box OF
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to I'M
prove He began to take long maps
and to stop scratching his head. After
taking two bottles of Resolvent, two
boxes of Ointment and three cakes Of
Soap he was sound and we'll, and never
had any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all ovel
his head l don't think anything else
would have cured him except CUT
