RUMOR AFlOAT BORAX SMITH
INTERESTS ARE SEEKING CONTROL
OF THE NORTH STAR COMPANY

Although lacking official confirma-
tion and given little credence locally,
a rumor is in circulation TO the ef-
feet that the "Borax" Smith and "a
briskie interests are endeavoring to
acquire control of the North Star
mine. which especially of late has
been attracting considerable atten
ton in the mining world through sen
sational values encountered during
the last week in a new drift on the
ledge recently intercepted by the
south crosscut on the 1250-foot level.
The development of the new find has
been proving up in a highly satisfac.
tory manner, lending support to the
general belief that the discovery is
one of the most important revelations
made in the camp for several years,
especially in view of the extraordi-
nary ratio of the gold and silver con
tent, the ore carrying approximately
an ounce of gold to an ounce of sill
yer in place of 100 ounces of silver
to one ounce of gold, the characteris-
tic proportion of the yellow and white
metals in Tonopah ores.

briskie interests seek to gain control

SOUTH GEORGIA WANTS
NEW FEDERAL CIRCUIT
Bill VIII Be introduced in Con-
greSS Asking for Reds
triCting u. S. Court
Especial Dispatch to The Journal)

NSpeCldl OlSpdLCH 10 lie JOuIhdAJ
SAVANNAH, Ga, Nov. 23.-It is no
secret that the lawyers of south Geor-
gia have been looking forward to the
creation of a new judicial circuit of
the United States court and yesterday
while Congressman H. d. Clayton, of
Alabama, was here, they took up the
matter with him in an informal way.
Mr.. Clayton is thoroughly conversant
with this matter and when referred to
him, he admitted that Alabama had
three judicial circuits of the United
States court and that Georgia was pos
sibly entitled to as much.
The bill may be introduced at the
present session of congress and if car
ried out would give the state the nor
thern circuit with Atlanta as the CEN
ter; a middle circuit with Augusta and
Macon and Albany as the larger cities,
and a southern circuit including Savan-
nah, Brunswick. Waycross and Balm
bridge and Valdosta. For the sake of
legal convenience the middle circuit,
where Judge Speer now presides, might
have to be named the southern circuit
and the Savannah circuit could be called
the southeastern. This would provide
for an admiralty judge.
1t lis expected a Savannah lawyer
would be named as judge Of the new
circuit. Yesterday afternoon several
members of the bar took luncheon at
Thunderbolt with Mr. Clayton and were
later Joined at the Terrace by Mr.. w. F.
McCbmbs, who happened to be passing
through the city. Mr.. McCombs, Of
course, is not a member of congress,
but as a man who stands very close to
President-elect Wilson he is interested
in all the talk about reforms. He is a

CHAIN NEGRO TO TREE,
THEN RIDDLE BODY
Special Dispatch to The Journa

NEWBERRY, S. C., Nov. 23-WiIl
Thomas, a negro. was taken from a
magistrates constable by a party of
masked men at a point fourteen miles
above Newberry, at about 10 o'clock
Friday night, and was chained to a
tree and his body riddled with bullets.
The negro was being brought to the
Newberry Jail by Constable Gary G.
Johnson, on a warrant charging Thomas
with the murder of Spurgeon Johnson,
who was assassinated in the upper sec
ton of the county near the Laurens
line, some weeks ago.
Constable Johnson was halted by the
mob at a point in some thick woods
just beyond Little river bridge. He
says when the mob approached him they
demanded the prisoner. and that he
refused to deliver him and shot off his
pistol, thinking to bluff the mob.
He says he was told if he did that
again he would be killed. and that he
was then entirely surrounded by the
masked men and had to surrender. He
said the mob then told him to go down
the road quickly and that he obeyed.
They struck his mule he says and
before he had got very far he heard
the firing of guns and pistols.
