SAW NO MONEY PASSED.
Hence Release Of Columbia Men
Charged with Race Betting.

Columbia, March An police
court to-day a number of persons,
arrested Saturday afternoon in the
rooms of w. S. Poat, at 1885 Main
street, on charge of gaming and bet
ting on horse races, were tried. w. S.
Poat was not present and his bond
was forfeited The other defendants
were arraigned and pleaded not gull
ty. Detectives Richardson and Ford
testified to having found charts hung
upon the walls in Poat's rooms, upon
which were posted the names of
horses, but they did not see any
money change hands.
Mr.. Christie Benet, city attorney,
addressed the court, and stated that,
as the defendants had not been
searched and no money had passed,
he would recommend that the cases
be dismissed. However, he warned
the defendants that it was the city's
intention to put a stop to betting on
the races, and cautioned them to be
more careful in the future.

FIVE DIED FROM GAS.
A Man, His Wife and Three Children
Found Dead.

Accidentally suffocated by gas,
John Barrett, a laborer, his wife and
three young children were found dead
in their two-room basement apart
ment at II West Fifty-fourth street,
New York, Saturday night. Tenants
in the house detecting an odor of es-
Gaping gas, notified the police, who
broke into the apartment and found
the body of Mrs. Barrett sitting up
right in bed, one hand clutched to
her breast and the other over her
mouth. The bodies of Helen, aged
7 and Winfred, aged 2, were lying
with their heads almost in her lap
with Their hands raised to her. The
body of the efour-months-old baby was
lying on a pillow at her feet, both
hands clasped over the mouth. Bar
rett's body was lying with the head
on the floor and the feet still in the
bed The family evidently had re-
tired in the one bed and Barrett or
mis- wife, before going to bed had
turned the gas down to dim light,
at the same time accidentally turned
the cock supplying a gas stove which
was unlighted.

Blease Turns Adams Loose.

A parole of unusual interest has
been granted by Governor Blease.
The governor has given r. A. Adams,
the Colleton county man, his liberty.
He was convicted after 'ong trial
in the county court at WATERFORD
and sentenced to hang. His sentence
was later commuted to life imprison-
ment and he entered the penitentiary
in 1903. This was an unsual case.
Adams killed a man and escaped.
The citizens OF Colleton county offer
I'd a reward of $500 and Governor
Hayward offered an additional $500.
Governor Hayward refused to offer
the reward for the arrest of Adams
dead or alive, taking the position that
it would be legalized murder to make
that provision.

500 ACRES OF MELONS.
New York Firm Leases Large Tract
in Florence County.

Florence, March 3.-What is said
to be one of the largest melon patches
in the South will be planted near the
southern suburbs of this city this
year by Messrs. Young & Matthews,
of New York, who have recently gone
heavily into the melon business.
This firm has leased and will
plant 425 acres of watermelons,
and seventy-fve acres of canteloupes,
making a total of 500 acres of mel
ons. They have arranged with the
Coast Line to put in side tracks at
their farms for the purpose of re-
ceiving fertilizers and for shipping
their melon crop. They have already
arranged for the sale of every melon
made on the 500 acres and could
have sold more if they could have
secured the land on which to plant
more.

GIRLS STOPS JAIL DELIVERY.
Jailer's Daughter Calls Him to Drive
Prisoners Back from Roof.

Litchfeld, KY, Feb. 29.-Quick
action by Miss Mary Jackson, the g.
year-old daughter of Jailer Jackson,
prevented a wholesale jail delivery
here.
Several prisoners sawed through
the cell doors and made their way
to the roof of the jail. Guy Patter-
son, prisoner, jumped to the ground
and escaped.
Miss Jackson heard the noise and
before the other prisoners could get
away she called her father, who, with
a shotgun, ran out and ordered the
men back. They laughed when he
ordered them to return to their cells,
but when the jailer opened fire and
wounded John Pruitt, they took the
situation more seriously and return
ed to their cells.

"RATHER HAVE THE ROPE"
But Samuel N. Hyde May be First
Legally Electrocuted in State.

Anderson, Feb. 2S.-Samuel n.
Hyde, the young white man who kill
ed his wife and her father in the
Orr cotton mill village last July, and
who was convicted of murder last
September, will likely be the first
person to be legally electrocuted in
South Carolina. Hyde was sentenced
to hang on October 20 last, but this
sentence was stayed by an appeal to
the supreme court. The supreme
court dismissed the appeal and Hyde
must be resentenced at the May term
of the court of sessions. The COVER
nor has already refused to Interfere
with the sentence.
Hyde was asked by the News and
Courier correspondent recently If ne
preferred electrocution to hanging by
the neck, and he made the laconlc
reply: "I'd rather have the rope; l
don't want any electricity in mine.
I got burned once by electricity when
was working for the traction COM
pany. That little touch of juice was
enough for me. I'll pick the rope
every time" 1t is presumed that the
electric chair will not be installed at
the penitentiary until April or May,
if that soon. If that be the case
HYDE will probably be the first to
take the chair.

Bar Association if that organization

committee in ousting William H.
Lewis, negro, assistant attorney

The attorney general declared that

upheld for a quarter of century
while Senator Smoot is, as he always
has been, an ardent advocate of the

OF having been the first man in the

done the bidding of Senator Smoot
as much as any other man in Utah.

lures with safety on account of our
methods of assessments.
Had We our way we would let every
man who would build nice home and
beautfy his grounds, and every man
who will plant an orchard go scott
free of assessment on improvements
for twenty years, and place a heavy
assessment on the fellow that never
spends a nickel for improvements but
just sits down and waits for his
neighbor to improve so he can sell
his own unimproved property. We
have such amongst us and no doubt
always will. but the assessor should
see that they get the big end of the
figures, and should look after the fel-
low who is spending his money to i'm.
prove and build up the community.

JUST OR UNJUST

IL
My neighbOr has fine field of alt
alta from which he cuts a remark.
able yield of choice hay annually.
Through a four wire fence is MY
young orchard planted two years ago,
doing nicely, but in all human prob
ability viii produce no returns for
three years more, and during this
time the expense end of the venture
will be heard from. My neighbor is as
sessed a reasonable amount per acre
for his alfalfa land, and the assessor
closes his accountMy land is likewise
assessed reasonable amount per
acre, andthe assessor before closing
my account, insists on placing a
handsome amount against me under
improvements on account OF my trees.
Is this right? Is this just?
The above from one of our sub
scribers opens up broad field for
thought and study, and likewise a
field that should be carefully studied
and worked out. We are not the as.
SCISSOR and are therefore not the right
kind of Judge TO bring immediate
results. Had we the power we are
free 10 say that the Improvement end
OF our office would be made mighty
small, as far as taxes on this parti.
cular item is concerned. There is alb.
solutely no pustice in permitting a
field Of alfalfa to go unassessed as i'm
provements,and at the same time as,
sesing field of unyielding fruit
trees as improvements, and IL such
conditions maintain the result will be
less fruit trees and fewer orchards.
improvements should be encouraged,
but what inducement is there for a
man TO improve his property when
the assessor jumps on to him and
assesses him beyond reason because
OF his improvements. We need i'm.
provements, we want fields OF alfalfa.
but We don't want men to feel that
they cannot go into any Of these ven.
