Says the State Has Not Gone to
Hades Yet and VIII Not.
The Augusta Chronicle says Sena-
tor Tillman has assumed an attitude
of watchfulness over the situation In
South Carolina and, in brief con-
versation while in Augusta Monday,
made 1t clear that he intended just
what he said in his recent letter to
State Senator Strait. 1t Is plain, too,
than the senator expects to take a
hand in the situation In South Caro-
lima II, in his opinion, it becomes
necessary.
Asked If he had any comment to
make on the letter published Monday
morning from Governor Blease, in re-
ply to the one Of Sunday morning
from Senator Tillnan, the Senator
replied:
t'I have nothing to say now, e1.
cept to say that the State hasn't gone
to hell yet-and we amt going to
let 1t. Further than that I am mere
ly awaiting developments" Senator
Tillman left the city Monday after
noon for his home In Trenton.

EATEN BY A SHARK,
This Is Supposed to be the Sad Fate
Of q Boy.

While swimming at Tybee Island
Friday, Edward Coffee, twelve-year-
old son Of Edward J. Coffee, an e1-
Savannah patrolman, mysteriously

other lads became frightened and
hurried ashore.
This is the fourth death at Tybee

THEY GOT TOO BOLD.
Several Railroad Men Charged With
Fraud.

Completing a trip through four
states in a roundup Of indicted for
mer employees Of the Southern rail-
way, Detective Edward Mcqueen OF
the Railway Secret service, reached
Mobile Friday. The search, which

arresting eleven ticket sellers and
ticket takers Of the Southern, who,
it is alleged In the indictments, swim
died the company out OF more than
$4,000.
OF the eleven indicted employees,
nine have been landed behind prison
bars. One has pleaded guilty and six
others have confessed. Two are at
liberty, but their arrest is but mat
ter Of time. All OF the alleged depre-
dations were committed on the No
bile-Selma branch of the Southern
railway. The operations extended
back for ten years, but the indict.
ments allege only those acts perpe-
trated within the period Of three
years. All Of those indicted had been
in the employ Of the company fol
many years.
The scheme or conspiracy was
worked by the ticket seller selling
the passenger a ticket which he
would not stamp as required by the
railroad. Boarding the train the
tickets taken from these passengers
by the ticket collector would not be

way the scheme worked intefruptedly

Failure Leads to Success.

r a man has failed in some under
taking, to the accomplishment OF
which he set himself, he has no need
OF being either ashamed or discour-
aged. There can be no failure with
out an effort to succeed and it Is bet
ter to try, even II the result Is failure,
and to make no effort at all. Failure
oftentimes leads to ultimate success
as the record of men in every walk OF
life conclusiyely shows. Undaunted
ny failure, even made wised by it, the
man regains his footing and at the
last triumphs.
