TRUSTEE MATTER F0R COURTS
JOHN G.. RICHARDS, JR., SO
WRITES GOV. BLEASF.
Says His Recommendation as Member
of Clemson Board Will Not Deter
mine Issues Involved

Columbia, Feb. 17.-John G.. Rich
ords, Jr., a member Of the railroad
commission, yesterday addressed a let
ter to Gov. Blease asking that the
question Of the right Of q trustee Of
a State college to hold public office
be finally decided in the courts Of the
State.
Mr.. Richards is a member Of the
board Of trustees Of Clemson college,
having been elected by the general as
sembly. He says that he will refuse
to resign until the matter has been
finally decided by the courts Of the
State. He takes the position that his
resignation will in no way decide the
issues involved.
The Letter.
The letter Of Mr.. Richards to Gov.
Blease follows:
II have read your message to the
legislature, in which you call atten-
tion to what you regard as a violation
Of the constitution upon the part Of
myself and others who are serving as
trustees Of State college while holding
| other positions under the government.
l have also read the report of the sub
committee of the senate and house, in
which they give it as their opinion
that The Hon. John G.. Richards, Jr.,
who Is an elected trustee Of Clemson
college and also railroad commits
sioner Of this State, is holding one or
the other Of the said Offices contrary
to the constitution of the State"
Il was elected upon the board of
trustees Of Clemson college without
being a candidate for the position
and by practically the unanimous vote
| of the general assembly. I was at
| that time member Of the legislature
| and served two yeasr as a member Of
| that body while member of the
Clemson board. The question involv-
ing the same issue as raised by your
message was submitted to the legisla-
ture by resolution during the session
| Of 1909 or 1910. The judiciary COM
| mittee Of that body, as recall it, rem
dered an opinion that the holding Of
| a trusteeship of a State college or
school, while serving in another gov
ernmental capacity, was not viola
tion Of the constitution and there the
matter rested. I have never felt

ODD ENGLISH SNAKE STORY
When Cow Was Bitten by Reptile,
Form Of Latter Appeared on
the Cream.

The west country OF England is no.
toriously land of strange beliefs and
superstitions. In the first week OF the
present month COW belonging to
Mrs. Heale of Goldburn, Okehampton.
which was quite we'll at the mornings
milking, was found In the evening to
be suffering from an enormous swell
ing of the udder 1t was concluded at
once that the animal had been bitten
by something, most probably by a
viper.
The cow was MIXED and the milk
was about to be flung away when the
servant girl interposed, and speaking
from previous experience said: Let
it stand. because If the COW has been
bitten by snake 1t will show up in
the milk The milk was accordingly
set aside, and on looking at 1t some
three hours afterward the form of a
snake was distinctly seen In the
cream which had collected on the sur.
face.
There was an exact model OF the
reptile, the head, with the v mark,
the eyes and the tongue projecting
from the mouth-perfect throughout
to the tail. Moreover, by aid of a
magnifying glass the scales of the
skin could be distinctly seen. All this
was seen by Mrs. Heale, her two
grown-up daughters, the servant girl
and the boy groom
On the following morning the figure
was less distinct A moth had got
into the cream and destroyed the con.
tinuity of the tail. Still the figure
was traceable, and the attention OF
the veterinary surgeon was called to
IT, He admitted that, the form of a
snake was undoubtedly there. His
treatment OF the animal from the first
was for snake bite. -
