diamonds might be or meteorlc orl-
gin, the scientists being unable to
agree whether the bottomless bores IN
which they are found and which are
known as diamond pipes" are the
result of ancient volcanic action-ex-
: plosions of subterranean laboratories
which are natures diamond factories,
or OF meteors which are themselves
the cruclbles from celestial regions in
which the diamonds are produced.
The latter theory has many dis
tlnguished supporters, Of whom the
most eminent perhaps, is Sir Will
lam Crookes, the great English SCI
enlist Sir William examined one OF
the fragments Of the great Arizona
meteor and found it to contain dla-
mond crystals. Speaking OF the
pipes" in which diamonds are
found at Kimberley, Sir William
said;
They are irregularly shaped
round or oval pipes extending YER
tically downward to unknown depths,
retaining about the same diameter
throughout.
How these great pipes were orig.
fnally formed It is hand to say. They
were certainly not burst through in
the ordinary manner OF volcanic
eruption, since the surrounding and
enclosing walls show no signs Of
igneous action"
It Is well known that meteors are

suggested that the meteor thus be-
comes a crucible which furnishes
both the intense heat and the tre-
mendous pressure necessary to

Scientifically, therefore, there is
every reason to believe that the Ar-

es of Honor has been received
by Pickens Chapter. Those vet
Grams and their descendants
who desire Crosses are urged to
make their applications at once,
and certainly not later than by

Second Document.

During the time that Cole L
Blease represented Newberry
county in the State senate,
gentleman by the name of F
Charlton Wright, who came
from Savannah, Ca, whose
brother was division superin
tendant of one of the railroads,
perhaps the Selboard Air line,
with headquarters in Columbia,
and who came to Columbia as
private secretary to P. |. Welles,
superintendent of the Southern,
was transferred from that posi-
ton to the position as private
secretary of the general coun-
sci of the Southern railroad.
Mr., W. Charlton Wright
was interviewed at length IN
the city of Columbia, and dis
cussed conditions obtaining
there during his incumbency as
private secretary of the general
gal 4
counsel of the Southern rail
road. He discussed at length
the dishonesty of Senator Cole
L. Blease. The most pertinent
statement made by him, which
is quoted literally, is as follows:
Why, of course, l know he
is a crook. When | was work

What the Evidence Will Show.

Augusta, Ca. July 13.-Evi
dence taken by dictagraph and
in personal contact by one Of "
J. Burns detectives was sub
mitted to the Investigating COM
mittee from South Carolina
Friday afternoon setting out
that Gov. Cole L. Blease had
received $1,000 for pardoning
Rudolph Rabens, of Charleston;
$500 for blocking railroad legis-
lation; 5000 for killing the first
attempted dispensary investiga-
ton and that he gets his share
of the blind tiger protection"
money from Charleston.
w. J. Burns himself on the
stand said he would prefer that
the committee hear the records
his men would have to submit
in the case. He was asked if
the work he had done would
show whether or not "Blease
has been grating as governor
and state senator. The direct
question was applied to him:
DO you mean that the re-
cords will show whether or not
he has been grating as govern
or and senator.:''
Yes" quietly replied Burns.
The hearing then adjourned
until 10 o'clock Saturday morn
ing when Reed, of dictagraph
fame, will so on the stand

4 PRACTICAL TEST.

The dictagraph was placed in
an adjoining room in the Rich
mond county court house. The
ear pieces We're used by three
members of the committee in
the court room While the other
members repaired to the room
and engaged in a general con-
versation. Every word uttered
was heard distinctly. The die
tograph was also tested by the
half dozen newspaper men pres
ent. The committee were salts
fed With the fact that the appa
ratus carried every word from
room to room and ruled that the
testimony was permissible. The
demonstration Of the dictagraph
was given by Detective Reed.
This same instrument was
used in the Los Angeles dyna-
mite case and it was in part the
means of bringing about a con-
fession from the Mcnamara
brothers who are now serving
sentences in the California pen
itentiary. The dictagraph had
been used in many cases
throughout the country and the
testimony secured is recognized
in court proceedings.
Detective Reed testifying be-
fore the committee. stated that
it was impossible to fake the
testimony Of the dictagraph.
He gave a technical description
of the workings Of the instru-
ment and stated that any II
regularity on the stenographers
notes would be Immediately de-
t,cted.

Who Detective Burns Is.

William J. Burns is the
shrewdest detective and great
est criminal hunter in America.
He is recognized as a sieuth
from whom there is no escape,
It was he who traced down and
unravelled the plot of grating
and corruption among certain
of the Ohio Legislators and sew
; eral of them We're convicted OF
bribery and went to prison. He
unearthed the corruption of Abe
Reuf the San Francisco king,
had him convicted and sent to
the penetentiarv. With his
men and dictagraphs, the Nc
Namara brothers plead guilty
to blowing up the Times build
ing at Los Angeles and killing
twenty odd men, and are now
serving life terms for murder.
He is said to be a spiritualist
and when he cannot run down
the criminal with his men. and
by means Of the dictograph, he
communes with the spirits, He
has never failed on any case he
has ever under, AIKEN and prom
ises the people of South Carolina
to unearth and prove one of the
most gigantic schemes of graft
ing and corruption which ever
existed in any country.
The following excerpts from
the testimony given by Detec-
tive Burns before the investigat-
ing committee in Augusta, Ga,
July 18th and 18th, is taken
from press dispatches to the
daily papers:
The Pickens sentinel. (Pickens, S.C.) 1911-2016, 1912-07-25

Direct testimony was giver
that Sam J. Nichols had been
given a check for $500 as a re.
tainer fee to secure the pardon
for DeFord and that the check
was on deposit in the Bank of
Commerce in Spartanburg.
Direct testimony was given by
Reed and Fielder that an addi-
tional check for $500 had been
placed at the disposal of Nichols
for work in buying a pardon for
DeFord. Direct testimony was
given that there is $4,000 on
deposit in a Chicago bank to be
paid to Sam j. Nichols upon the
word that DeFord had been re-
leased from the State peniten-
tiary.
These checks, Fielder said,
will be placed in evidence before
the committee.

Fourth Document.

John H. Morris and r. L
Toland. of Spartanburg, s. c..
J have stated, and will undoubt
edly swear if called before you,
committee that Cole L. Blease
then a senator from Newberry
who was acting upon the in.
vestigating committee to in
vestigate the affairs of the late
dispensary, was employed by
Jeff Dunwoody of Atlanta,
agent for the Atlanta Brewing
and Ice company, to obstruct
the proceedings of the said CON-
mittee.
They will also swear that
the said Blease sought a private
interview with them and did
everything in his power to pre-
vent them from testifying be-
fore said committee.
JEFF Dunwosdy, being a
citizen of Georgia, can not be
compelled to corroborate this
evidence; but the fact will be
sufficiently established by those
two witnesses.
In this connection I desire to
state that when Cole L. Blease
was senator from Newberry and
a bill was introduced to appro-
pirate $4,000 to be used by the
attorney general of the State In
conducting the prosecutions
against the grafters. that the
liquor dealers employed the
said Blease, then senator, to
oppose the passage of said
measure; and as a matter of
,ct tn said Blease did oppose
by speech, vote and influence
the passage of said resolution,
aud that he received for his
services the sum of $3.50 in cash,
which was paid to him at
Wrisht's hotel in the city of
Columbia, State Of South Caro-
