STATEMENT FROM JUDGE JONES.
Defeated Candidate Thanks His Sup
porters in Recent Primary.

Columbia, Oct. 1.-Judge Ira B..
Jones tonight expressed his apprec!-
alton of the support of his followers
and his gratitude to them and his po-
sition in contesting the election in
the following statement:
ITO the People of South Carolina:
The State executive committee of the
Democratic party has declared Gov.
Blease to be the nominee of the party
for the Office of governor, and do
not question the correctness of their
conclusion from the evidence that
they had before them. 1 am also per-
suaded that the subcommittee charg-
ed with the duty of investigating the
conduct of the election did all that
was possible for them to do in the
time that could be given to their
task.
II think it proper now to return
my thanks to all those who support
ed me by votes, voice or influence,
and who joined me in contest which
we believed was for the best interest
of South Carolina. To all such /
wish to say that in the light of the
suspicion of fraud and illegality
which was so freely expressed, l felt
it to be my duty to them, as we'll as
to myself, to contest the election and
to this end 1 employed counsel.
ITO conduct such inquiries and
procure such testimony as would
prove these suspicious well founded
would have required a large sum OF
money for the necessary expenses OF
such an investigation in many coun-
ties-a sum much beyond my ability
to furnish. I made no request for
money from those who were interest
ed in the success of the cause which
I represented, as a call for funds had
been made by the State executive
committee for an impartial investiga-
ton by a subcommittee Of their own
body; Upon the result of this COM
mittee action I was, therefore, forced
to rely.
Their report, based upon a full
investigation in few counties, a
partial report from several and nc
report at all from several others
with no further testimony furnished
to me, did not justify me, in law or
in morals, to urge action by the full
committee different from the recon-
mendations Of the subcommittee
and so it was that I submitted the
matter of my contest to their de-
cision upon the testimony reported to
them.
The confidence and support of my
friends in this contest fill my heart
with deepest gratitude.

Reading-Paragraphs About
Men and Happenings.

T. U. Vaughn, who was arrested IN

boro, secured a verdict against the

of reducing the verdict.

grand prize race at the Savannah Au-
tomobile races, was killed at Mil
waukee, Wis, Tuesday. He was

Girls Walk Street Under Disguise

Atlanta, Oct. 1.-Certain young
girls in Atlanta who want to walk
the streets more than young girls
have got any business to be walking
them, have adpoted the unique dis
guise of carrying bundle of school,
books dangling at the end a strap.
There are so many bona fide school
girls going to and from the city and
high schools every day that the
"phony" school girls have been work
ing their little scheme successfully
for some time past, but in the midst
of the present upheavel of reform
several of them have been brought to

CONGRESSMAN BYRNEs UNHURT
RumOr Current in Charleston Proves
Totally Unfounded.

A report that gained currency here
yesterday to the effect that Congress
man Jas. F. Byrnes, representative
of the I'd South Carolina district, had
been shot and killed in Aiken, prov
ed upon inquiry to be wholly un-
founded. Mr. Byrnes is ct home in
Aiken, and was seen yesterday af-
ternoon by representative of the
News and Courier. It is probable
that the trouble at Wagner, in Aiken
county, gave rise to the report that
Mr.. Byrnes had been shot.-News
and Courier, Sept. 80.

to-day charged with the murder OF

Will Inject Flavor Into Watermelon.

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. 30.-1f an in
vention said to be practically per-
fected becomes popular in Georgia
the farmers of this State will likely
be asking the city customers next
summer this unusual question:
What flavor will you have your
watermelon"
This is no alleged funny story. 1t
is a record of scientific achievement.
A hypodermic needle does the trick.
Flavoring extract is injected into the
system of the watermelon while it is
still green. Vanilla has been found
thus far to be the most satisfactory
The natural flavor of watermelon is
not full and satisfying even when the
fruit is deliciously ripe. The natural
flavor is too elusive, too delicate.
