Policeman Killed Mill Operative.

Rock Hill, June 16.-Henry H.
Putnam, about 20 years of age, an
employe of the Victoria cotton mill,
was shot and almost instantly killed
by Policeman Eubanks on the South
ern track near the mill this morning
about 5 o'clock. Coroner Louthian
held the inquest to-day. The gist Of
the evidence showed that Putnam
with three other young fellows were
at the letter box in front Of the mill
and that Putnam swung on passing
freight train and rode about the
length of a box car. That Eubanks
came out from the other side of the
train when it passed, and arrested
Putnam. After they had got out of
sight coming toward the city shot
was heard and Putnam's companions
and Night Watchman King of the mill
ran up to find Putnam had been shot.
He died in few moments. No wit
nesses saw the shooting so far as has
appeared. City Attorney Wilson at
the inquest stated that Eubanks ad-
mitted the shooting, but claimed self
defense. The verdict was that Henry
Putnam came to his death by pistol
shots at the hands of Gus Eubanks
while in discharge Of his duty as a
policeman of the city of Rock Hill.
Eubanks surrendered Immediately af-
ter the killing and will be sent to jail
to await the making Of bond.
The coroner left Immediately for
Roddy's Station, where a negro was
killed by another while in a crap
game.

H. Goldstein Arrested in Augusta at
Instigation of n. Y. Authorities.

Augusta, Ca, June 13.-Following
a raid on his place this afternoon,
H. Goldstein, who operated a little
secondhand clothing store on Kol-
lock street, was arrested this after
noon by Chief George P. Elliott as
a result of a long chase, at the insti-
CATION of New York police authori-
ties. In Goldstein's shop were be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 worth of
imported cigars which usually retail
for 10 to Is cents, but which have
been selling on the Augusta market
lately at a remarkably low rate.
The authorities charge that they
are goods handled by local lend"
by a New York smuggling concern.
Goldstein is held under bond.

CAUGHT AFTER 1S YEARS.
Tom Buchanan Held for Killing of
Marlboro Farmer.

Bennettsville, June 15.-Tom
Buchanan, Sumner Davis and Sink
Quick are in Jail here, the former
charged with the murder of William
Brigham in this county nearly eigh-
teen years ago, and the other two
held as accessories. The homicide
occurred at what is known as Lack
ey's bar, or distillery, then noto-
rious illegal drinking resort, William
Brigman was well-to-do farmer of
the Brightsville section, and it is
said that he and Buchanan had had
some kind of dispute about watch;
that Brigham received word from
Buchanan that he expected to kill
him if Brigham ever came over the
State line. 1t also seems that Buch-
anan, Davis and Quick were all at
Lackey's bar room drinking; that Eg-
bert Odom drove up with Brigham in
his buggy; that Buchanan put down
his glass, took up his gun, stepped
outside of the building and shot Brig
man, the gun being loaded with nails
and slugs.
Strenuous effort was made at the
time to catch Buchanan, and it was
thought at one time that he had been
located at Spray, N. c. He was final
ly taken at Rocky Mount, N. c.,
where he was working at lumber
mill. It is said that Buchanan ad-
mits having fired the fatal shot, and
duplicates other parties. A prelim-
mary has not been demanded, but it
is possible that it will be held before
Magistrate Gibson the first of next
week.

ROW IN U. S. COURT
Gonzales and Hemphill Obtain In.
junction-Ask for Receiver.

Greensboro, N. c., June 15.-In
the United States court here to-day,
Judge James E. Boyd signed an or
der restraining the present owners
of the Charlotte Observer and the
First National Bank, Of Charlotte,
from the collection of notes held
against Ambrose E. Gonzales, for
shares of stock of the Observer Com
pany deposited as security for pay
ment of said note The order was
signed upon the petition of attorneys
representing Major J. c. Hemphill,
former editor of the Observer, and
Mr.. Gonzales, former general man
ager. June % was fixed as the day
for hearing why the injunction
should not be made permanent.
The complaint charges that by
reason of the conspiracy between D.
A. Tompkins, George Stephens and
w. H. Wood, the plaintiffs were oust-
ed of their interests in the stock,
management and control Of the OBJ
server Company, contrary to contract
made between the five when the COM
pany was reorganized about six
months ago. The plaintiffs ask that
a receiver be appointed to collect the
assets of the company.
All of the parties to the suit are
prominent in Southern Journalism,
Mr.. Gonzales being also one Of the
owners of the Columbia State. Major
Hemphill is now with the New York
Times. He was for twenty years edi-
tor of the News and Courier, Of Char
lesion.
In a statement tonight, George
Stephens, of the Observer Company
and a defendant to the suit, stated
that the matter referred to a tenta-
i've agreement for partnership,
which was never legally entered into.
He declared that the Observer Com
pany was in no way involved, the diff
ficulty being more of a personal mat
ter between the five parties named
in the suit.

There has been a decrease Of 33
per cent. in the number of children
in the cotton mills of South Carolina

The reports filed show that no chill
dren under IL years of age, are en-
ployed, while in 1911 there were
16S.

present and past ages.

present and past ages.
If the boys who are to stay on the
farms are to win success which
will make the farms attractive to
those who are now going to the cities,
they must be educated to their busi-
ness just as the boys who have left
the farms have been educated for
lawyers, doctors, merchants, teach
ers, and preachers. This has not
been true in the past. They have
not had an equal education, either
in quality or quantity, and until the
boy who stays on the farm is given
as good a chance to win success
as good an education in his business
as those who go to the cities, the
exodus from the country will con-
tinue. We have proclaimed the I'M
aginary advantages of the country
long enough to prove that this meth
cd of attempting to change matters
is a failure. Now let us make the
chances of the farm boy for success
equal to those we have given the
boys that have left the farms, and
our efforts will be more successful.
Is it impossible now to give the
farmer as good an education for his
business as we now give the lawyer
or the doctor? We believe it is now
impossible to do so, taking the farm
boy as a whole. Farming education
lis not so old nor so well established.
Our common schools and our agricul-
tural schools are still too much the
prey of politicians and "quacks." But
there is evidence of change and
when the right sort of education is
given them, as is now given to those
who leave the farms, then the
chances for success will be in favor
of the boys who stay on the farm;
for when other things are made
equal-which has not been done in
the past-the farm offers opportuni-
ties for true success equal to those
offered to the lawyer, the doctor, or
the merchant who lives in the city.

FIELDER MAY BE ARRESTED.
Gov. Blease Says He Will Issue Or
ders to That Effect.

Gov. Blease stated last week that
he would instruct the sherifs OF
Greenville and Spartanburg counties
to arrest Thomas B. Fielder, the At
lanta attorney who has won such a
name in this State and who Is charg-
ed with conspiracy and attempt to
bribe an official of this State, as he
passes through this State on his way
from Atlanta to Baltimore, en- route
to the national Democratic conven-
ton. He further stated that if Eel
der should be arrested in Baltimore
he would issue requisition on the
governor of Maryland for his return
to this State. Mr.. Fielder is a dele
gate 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 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
and other towns.
5000 Reward for Fielder.
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, said Gov. Blease Tuesday, these
being held by officials of as many
counties. There is one warrant for
his arrest in the hands of the sheriff
of Lexington county. A warrant for
his arrest is in the hands of magis-
trate of Newberry county and there
is also one in the hands Of magis-
trate in Richland county. These
warrants charge Fielder with conspir-
acy to defraud the State Of South
Carolina and with attempting to
bribe a State official. The whole is
the outgrowth of the affairs OF the
old State dispensary.
Would Issue Requisition
Gov. Blease further stated that
if some detective in Baltimore should
desire to get the 5000 reward and
should arrest Fielder he would issue
a requisition on the governor OF
Maryland for his return to this State.
He said he wanted to see the charges
against Fielder thrashed out and to
this end he would do all In his power
to have him brought back to South
Carolina and made to face jury.

DOGS OF THE YoUKoN.
They are Born Fighters, 1nveterate
Thieves, Sometimes Cowards.

Dogs in Alaska are Of all breeds
and sizes, the most common being the
malamute or native dog, says a
writer in the Wide World Magazine.
The word "malamute" is an Indian
word meaning Eskimo and is applied
to both dogs and natives. The mala-
mute is of the wolf strain-in fact,
the best of the breed are half wolf.
They evince all the characteristics OF
the wolf, both in appearance and
manners.
Owing to his wolflike fur, the NAL
amute can easily stand the extreme
Alaskan cold. He is born fighter,
an inveterate thief and somewhat OF
a coward, for he will seldom fight
singly against a lone adversary. The
malamute, while well able to with
stand the cold, does not seem to have
the same order of intelligence as is
displayed by the outside dog, and
the best dog for Alaska would seem
to be mixture of the two strains.
Another native breed in the North
is the huskie, but this breed Is rarer
than common usage of the word
would imply. The real huskies are
bred in the neighborhood of.the Nc
Kenzie river, and are more common
in the territory under the jurisdic-
ton of the Hudson's Bay company
than in Alaska.
Small dogs, such as fox terriers,
are a rarity in Alaska, for In that
country dog is valuable in exact
proportion to the amount he can pull.
A sleigh dog will weigh anything
from 80 to $50 pounds, the average
being about rs pounds.
Dogs in Alaska, when on the trail,
are fed once a day, after the days
work is done. They are never fed in
the morning, for if they were they
would be lazy all day, or, what is
more probable, would vomit up their
breakfast soon after they got on the
trail. Dogs, to work well, must be
well fed.
They get a variety of foods, includ-
ing rice, tallow, corn meal, and fish.
If rice or corn meal forms a part Of
their food it must be cooked. Some
men prefer to feed their dogs on ba-
con or fish, thus doing away with
cooking.
The Youkon sled, while not thing
of beauty, is built to stand all kinds
of hard wear. The sled is about eight
feet long, is made of any kind Of hard
wood, lies close to the ground, costs
from ten to fourteen dollars, and
makes trail sixteen inches in width.
Another pattern is known as the
basket sleigh, and is to the Youkon
sleigh what three masted schooner
is to a coal barge. In length it is
from eight to fifteen feet, is made Of
birch, oak, or hickory, cuts trail
% inches in width, costs from $40
to 5000, is raised foot or more
from the runners, and, in the best
examples, is lashed together with
raWhide.
The basket sleigh, as its name i'm
plies, is fitted with basket, into
which the load is placed, and from
the back Of the basket pair Of han
dies project, to be used in guiding
the sled on the trail. In very cold
weather wooden runners are best.
but in ordinary circumstances steel
or brass runners are used.

final GAMES TO SETTLE THE
/ MAINE CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES

MAINE BOWDolN.

Orono. Nov S.-Final games in the
championship series of the four Maine
colleges win be played, Saturday.
Maine will play .Bowdoin at Orono
and a victory will settle the cham
pionship in favor Of the home team.
Colby, still hoping to at least tie
Maine, will entertain Bates at Wa
tervile. Bates also entertains hopes
of breaking into tie.
A decisive victory of Maine over
Colby was somewhat of a surprise
Many had looked for victory but
none had dared predict a score 50
large. Maine is now a decided favorite
for the State championship. She is
the only team which still has a clean
string Of victories TO her credit for
the series.
Unlike Colby, Bowdoin has we'll
balanced team. While Colby has a
star back field in Lowney and Fraser,
but a weak line, Bowdoin has a strong
line and a good backfield Maine has
a similar team Her line is strong, and,
while, her baekfield is much faster
and more aggressive than the Bowdoin
set of backs, they do not possess the.
speed of either Lowney or Fraser OF
Colby.
Bowdoin however, has no such man
as Captain Shepafd ..gSiae Maine full

his team, last Saturday. in gaining
