the causes Of carelessness, ignorance

LIFE LOSS GREAT.
Greater even than the loss of prop
erty is the tremendous loss of life
through the agency of fire. More than
5000 lives were lost, according 10 the
statistics. by fire last year in the

conserve the property of our people as
We conserve the health and lives OF
the people of this state.
ITO this cad, therefore. it is most
earnestly recommended that Wednes-
day the ninth day OF October. 1912,
which Is the 41st anniversary of the
great Chicago fire, be set aside and
be known throughout the state OF
illinois as Fire Prevention day, that
on said day all owners of property
shall take steps to see that their build

purpose of discovery ald removal of
dangerous conditions therein: that the
civic authCiities concerned in the
prevention of fires take steps to call
the attention Of the people of their
community 10 the common fire dan
gers and cooperate with them in
every possible way in correcting dan
gerous conditions ard that our
school authorities. both public and
private, shall on the above day con-
duct such appropriate exercises as

KILLED by his own invention" is a
fitting epitaph for the grave of DR..
Frank Carson's baseball aspirations.
He evolved the 12-club league idea for
the Central league and so unsuccessful
was it that in response to an unques-
tionable opposition on the part of the
directors he has announced that he
will not be a candidate for reelection
as president He is a member of the

scheme failed so miserably was in line

interest in the Case.

Columbia, S. c., June 4.-Governor
Blease stated Tuesday that he would
shortly instruct the sheriffs of Spar
tanburg and Greenville counties to
arrest Thomas B. Fielder the Atlanta
attorney, who has won such a name
in this state, and who is charged with
conspiracy and attempt to bribe an
official of this state, as he passes
through this state on his way from
Atlanta to Baltimore, enroute to the
national democratic convention. He
furUner stated that if Fielder should
be arrested in Baltimore he would
issue a requisition on the governor
Of Maryland for his return to this
state Mr. Fielder is a delegate at
large from Georgia to the Baltimore
convention.
In going from Atlanta to Baltimore
Mr.. Fielder will almost certainly have
to pass through South Carolina. He
will, in so doing, either use a South
ern train stopping at both Spartan
burg and Greenville, or else he will
take a Seaboard Air Line train pass
ing through Abbeville, Greenwood anG
other towns.
There are rewards outstanding for
the arrest of Fielder in this state
amounting to 5000, and there are
three warrants for his arrest in this
state, these being held by the officials
of as many counties. There is one
warrant for his arrest in the hands
of a magistrate of Newberry county,
and there is also one in the hands OIL
a magistrate in Richland county.
These warrants charge Fielder with
conspiracy to defraud the state of
South Carolina, and with attempting
to bribe state official. The whole
is the outgrowth of the affairs of the
old state dispensary.
