KILLS STEPFATHER-IN-LAW.
Orangeburg County Farmers in Fatal
Diffculty-Slayer Surrenders.

Orangeburg, Nov. 4.-As the result
it is said, of contentious of long stand
ing, Caesar Holman shot and killed
his stepfather-in-law, J. H. Compton,
in the fork section os The county this
morning. Both parties are prominent
white farmers. 1t is said that Comp
ton began the trouble by going to the
residence of Holman and assaulting
him with a gun, whereupon Holman,
who had succeeded in sheltering HIM
self from the attack of Compton, fired
upon the latter with shotgun, in
ficting a wound which was almost
instantly fatal.
1t is understood that lawsuit has
been pending for some time, which Wss
brought by one of these men against
the other. Upon hearing Of the shoot
ing, officers were sent by the, sheriff to
arrest Holman, but before they had
gone far, they met him coming to
Orangeburg to surrender.

WOMEN TAKE A HAND
DOWN IN JACKSONVILLE
Feminine Mob Gathers to Stone Car.
Hurry Call for Militiamen.

Jacksonville, Fla, Nov. 6.-For the
first time since the carmen went on
a strike, just one week ago today, the
women have taken a hand in the mob
violence. This afternoon a party OF
about one dozen women stopped a
Riverside, car at the corner of Dale
and May streets, apparently for the
purpose of boarding it. When the car
had made full stop, the women COM
menced throwing bricks stones and
glass bottles. A hurry call was sent
for militiamen, but the women made
their escape. Today the Jacksonville
Traction company announced that it
was willing to recognize local union,
but positively would not recognize the
Amalgamated association. The com
pany says it is anxious and willing to
settle the differences in any way pos
sible with the exception of recognizing
the Amalgamated association.
One car crew was attacked at tie
corner of Main and Seventh street this
afternoon, the motorman and conduc-
tor being stoned by a small mob.
Three shots were fired into an Oak
land car this forenoon at the corner
of Union and Washington streets. the
assailants having hidden in new
building being erected at that corner.
Of the Is men arrested yesterday
for violence, only one was fined in the
municipal court this morning. This
has caused much comment.

EXCEEDED APPROPRIATION.
Comptroller General Refuses to Hon
or Industrial School Warrants.

Columbia, Nov. 4.-Because the leg
islature appropriated only $1,000 for
the erection of a dormitory at the
Industrial School at Florence and the
board let a contract for buildings
amounting to s27,678.50, Comptroller
General Jones has declined to honor
any warrants for the contractor which
are drawn On the appropriation On the
ground that it is a violation OF the
law. The comptroller general had be-
fore him the criminal code, which
makes it a felony for any public officer
to enter into any contract for more
than the appropriation and also the
constitutional provision prohibiting
the legislature from authorizing pay
ment or part payment of any contract
not authorized by law.

South Carolina AS
Seen by a Yankee.

Seen by Yankee
South Carolina is a State of perpe-
tual irritation, situated between Geor-
gia and North Carolina, and some
where between the Revolution and the
war between the sections. 1t is the
fighting State in the Union, and IS the
unsafest spot between the Atlantic
and the Pacific in which to discuss
the emancipation proclamation or to
edit a newspaper with trenchant
enn.
South Carolina is about as big as
the front yard of Texas cattle king.
It contains 10000 square miles, is
shaped like a 5 cent cut Of pie, and has
1900, 900 people including republicans
Chinese and Indians not taxed. The
population is almost equally divided
between whites and negroes, but one
white Carolinian when he gnashes his
teeth and draws in his breath with a
low, kissing sound can make 100 color
ed residents go and change OF cl-
mate without waiting for the next
train
South Carolina was settled about
250 years ago, but has. remained un-
settled ever since. 1t has always been
noted for it's nervous disposition and
it's willingness to rise up and smite
the universe on ali occasions. The
British were having an easy time in
the revolution when they struck South
Carolina, but Gen. Marion soon made
them look liFe republican who has
criticised Gen. Lee in Charleston. The
State helped win the revolution, but
threatened to take its doll things and
90 home in Jackson's administration,
and in 1861 it opened the War Between
the Sections by seeding with pro-
digious explosion. Later it contributed
Tillman to the United States senate
and has listened to the uproarious re-
suits with pride ever since. South Car
olina was severely shaken By earth
quake in 1886. but did not secede at
that time
South Carolina raises cotton, rice
and sweet potatoes, and supplies tur-
pentine and rosin to the world at large.

Indianapolis, Jan. 2.-William J. Burns
arrived here today to testify before the

cred to be the final lap in the gov
eminent investigation of the alleged

night Mr.. Burns expects to confer with

ment prosecutor in southern California
and District Attorney John D. Fred
ericks of Los Angeles county, Cal, the
latter two being due to arrive here
from the coast during the day.
The announcement of Ortie E. Nc
ManigsPs departure from Los Angeles
for this city completes the gathering of
the government forces in building UP

Mr.. Burns declared he would not be

investigation is aimed is already IN

were offered in California for the ar

Topeka Will Have New Summer
Amusement Resort.
Garfield Park Will Be Turned
Over by the City.
Is PER CENT
City Win Be Given Part of the
Gross Receipts.
Contract for Work Now in Hands
of Commissioners.

If daily conferences pending between
the board of city commissioners and
local promoters come to a satisfactory
end, Topeka next summer will have one
of the best amusement parks in the
west. In addition to this promise, the
park will be at Garfield in North To-
peka-a down town location and place
accessible by a one way car fare
Then there is another feature-the
city of Topeka will receive Is per cent
of the gross receipts of the amuse-
ments. 1t is figured by 9. c. Matthews,
who is at the head of the local pro
city will be given more than $4,000
year revenue without one cent of ex-
pense.
What the promoters are asking is a
lease of the park rights for five years.
If this is Secured-and there is every
reason to think that the city commits
sioners will be in favor of the PROPOSE
tion--a Philadelphia amusement park
equipment concern will begin 1mmedl-
ately to build the features and trans
form Garfield park into a dazzler of
fun.
1t is planned by the Topeka men at
the head of the contracts to cover the
land Just east and southeast of Gar
field park with every kind of an at
traction, found in modern joy parks A
figure eight, or a coaster and scenic
railway will be built over this ground
1t will be of the latest pattern and the
E~~N- O@@7
riety of sensations. The track will
cover the entire territory
CarouseIs, airdomes, moving picture
screens and a score more attractions
will. be built 1t is planned to make
the entire park district a blaze OF cleo
tricity at night.
No admission will be charged to the
park The promoters promise the city
that no damage will be done to the
grounds. No trees will be cut down
Everything will be carried out on q
clean amusement feature plan under
the direction of an appointed city in
spector if the city desires. Every even
ing after the park closes Is per cent
of the gross receipts will be turned
into the municipal treasury.
Topeka now has one amusement
park-Vinewood. 1t is located few
miles southeast of the city and is
reached by tWO-fare car line. Vine
wood is conducted by the Topeka Rail
way company and has been popular
place.
City commissioners declare that To-
peka needs an amusement park down
town-or at least a park that can be
reached more easily by working men
and their families It is argued that
the location of Garfield prak would ne
of great benefit to everyone
Conferences between c. Q. Matthews
and the city comm issioners have been
progressing for some time. When the
contract is agreed upon it will be
signed and the Philadelphia concern
will begin work on the park features.
