Miss Carrie May Goodson, who lives
at 122 Broyles street ard is something
of an artist, went out to Grant park to
do some sketches from nature. And now

subject
Miss Goodson strolled down to the pad
dock and made a sketch of the dear
little deer She drew the fawns and
their mothers and then found a cool place
on the grass and began a portrait of old
Buck, the head of the herd.
Buck posed like a statue for a while
Then his curiosity led him to wonder
what the girl with the pencil was do
ing Miss GOodson had stopped looking
at her subject and was bending over the
sketch
Suddenly she saw a shadow on her pa
per and glanced up. There was old Buck,
his antler's almost in the artists face,
taking a look at his own portrait. And
that's the way the photographer, who had
been trying to catch the deer in a mo-
ment of repose, got the picture he wanted,

ELECTION PROBE:
IN At COLUMBIA
South Carolina Executive Com
mittee Begins Investigation
of Primary Fraud Charge.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Sept. For re-
lief from the tense political strain I'M
der which the state has been since the
recent primary in which Cole l.. Blease
on the face of the returns, was re-
nominated for the governorship. the
eyes of every man of both factions in
the state are today looking forward to
the state executive committee which is
now in session.
Nearly all the committeeman are
pres ent and an atmosphere Of work pre-
walls. The committee was called to
order by Chairman John Gary Evans
and protests were submitted from sew
eral counties. Judge Ira B. Jones. can
didate for governor, submitted a pro-
test Of the election and asked that the
committee go as far as possible in fer
reting out fraud.
1t is not known what action the com
mittee will take in approval or disap-
prevail of the recent election, which is
conceded both by the Jones forces and
by Governor Blease as having been
marked with fraud. 1t is generally be-
lieved that between 10000 and 10000
fraudulent votes were cast, but wheth-
er the committee will be able to put
its finger on enough fraudulent votes
to declare the election irregular re-
mains to be seen. The committee will
likely be in session several days.
1t is reported on the streets here that
E. S. Reed, the Burns detective who has
inquired so prominently in this state
