efce County, which opened the second day
OF February, 1897. When the Circuits Of
South Carolina were r%earranged. Judge
Klugh wa continued as Circuit Judge Of
the new Eighth Circuit. composed at pres
ent Of the Counties OF Newberry, Green
wood, AbbevilIe and Laurens. He. served
as a delegate to the Constitutional Con-
venti0nof South Carolina in 1895.
Judge Klugh was always interested in
matters Of education. He believed in
training the minds and hearts Of the youth
of our beloved State. For eight years he
gave his services as a member OF the Coun-
ty Board of Education in his County, and
for many years served az trustee Of the
Abbeville Graded Schools. For foIr years
he was n trustee OF the estate Of DR.. John
dc la Howe, which supported Il school for
poor children.
He was Il man Of excellent business
qualifications, which he exhibited as an al
dcrman IF the city Of Abbeville, as a di-
rector OF the National Bank OF that place,
AMI us a director and president of the Alb
bcville Cotton Mill.
AS a Judge, James G.. Klugh will long be
remembered by the people, and especially
by the lawyers, OF South Carolina. On the
bench, rs in private life, he was modest,
almost retiring, but he was courageous,
and dared, when occasion arose, to speak
plainly and boldly. He believed in the
law; he loved equity, and it was his great
aim that law in equity should go hand in
hand. He was always patient, and ever
ready to lend assistance to the younger
members OF the bar. When his health had
failed, and he had become a great sufferer,
he still continued to work with a degree OF
patience that was remarkable.
Judge Klugh died at his home in Able
vile on the End day Of October, 1911. In
his death the bar Of South Carolina lost
one of the truest members it ever had, and
the judiciary of our State had taken from
it one Of the most conscientious, upright
and Christian Judges that ever occupied a
place in our Courts.
Therefore, Be it resolved by the New
berry Bar Association:
First. That In the death Of Judge Coke
Klugh, the Eight Judicial Circuit has lost
q Judge, whom it was our privilege to hon.
or and respect, because Of his ability, his
sincerity and fairness; that his people
have had taken from their midst a distin.
guished citizen, whose walk in daily life
was that Of an upright, Christian gentle
man; that his family are called to mour
the departure Of a kind and loving hus-
band and father, and that we hereby ex-

three years. In January, 1885, the bar OF
Abbeville unanimously recommended him
for appointment to the position Of Master
In Equity, and to this position he was ap-
pointed by Governor Hugh S. Thompson.
So carefully, fairly and conscientiously
did he perform the duties Of the Office OF
Master, and so strong were his reports
and decisions in equity matters, that he
soon established for himself a reputation
for being one Of the best equity lawyers
In South Carolina. He held the Office OIL
Master until February, 1897, when he re-
signed to take up the duties Of Circuit
Judge Of the. Eighth Judicial Circuit, which

DULL WEEK IN CONGRESS-

Washington, June ~16.-Congress will be
in almost a total eclipse during the next
fortnight. The Senate, perfunctorily meet
ing a few minutes every third day, will
transact no business. The House may
pass the sundry civil appropriation bill to-
morrow.
The delay In enactment OF a dozen an
nual appropriation bills, which provide for
the operation OF the Government, will
make it necessary for both houses to pass
a concurrent resolution about July l, con-
tinuing the present supply bills into the
next fiscal year for a brief period, with
probable later extensions OF the period.
The last similar embarrassing situation
was in the SD Congress, almost twenty
years ago.

BEWARE The TREE BUTCHER
indianapolis, Speaking from Expert
ence, Sounds a Warning That 10
Well Worth Heedlnq.

The influence of tho tree trimmer IN
increasing the susceptibility Of a tree
to insect attack Is often Of moro I'M
portance than would appear at first
glance. Many trees are 80 weakened
by wanton butchery that they become
an easy prey to the various borers
that seldom attack vigorous trees.
While this vandalistic form of injury
is p~reventabIe 1t is surprising how
many people continue to allow the
tree butchers to ruin fine shade trees.
The tree butcher goes on p. T.. Bar
NUNS old assumption that there II
q sucker born every minute" The
truth OF this was we'll shown IN In
dianapolis last year when some
itinerant tree doctor" went about
painting the trunks of shade trees
with a dope" containing tar. 40
cording to the self-styied expert. tho
preparation was absorbed through the
bark and then disseminated to all
parts OF the tree, killing any bugs"
that might be present. When there
was no evidence of any insect injury
the tree doctors would suggest the
use of the tar paint to open up the
pores of the bark and make the tree
healthy" 1t seems almost too abb
surd to believe that intelligent citL
zens would be caught by such q fax
or. but even after a series OF news
paper warnings he succeeded In paint,
ing hundreds of trees throughout the
city. The d~eplorable thing about 1t
all Is that practically every tree that
was painted died-and there appears
TO be NO law TO cover the case.-ln

MONK STREET SLIP
HAS BEEN DEEPENEO
IMPROVEMENTS MADE BY CON-
TRACTOR kRAUss APPREcI-
ATED BY PUBLIC.

The work of Contractor George R.
Krauss on the slip at the foot OF
Monk street has been finished. The
Finn company dredge has deepened
the slip so there is ample water at
all times This improvement is much
appreciated by the public generally
and boatmen especially. who have
been greatly inconvenience in the
past by inability to get into the slip
at low tide.
This is the only public landing on
the river-front and is therefore a
great rendezvous for boats and small
craft that ply between Brunswick and
her river points. The improvements
just finished were made possible by
appropriations from both the city of
Brunswick and the Glynn county
commissioners.

WIND7IPE SHOWS WOMAN WAS
STRANGLED BEFORE BODY
WAS PLACED IN WATER.
FINO TWO MRS. MENSCHINKS
Private Detectives AIIege that Both
Women Were Approached by "a
Lawyer" Who Offered to Help Them
Get Estate.

New York, Sept. ia warrant
for the arrest of Burton w. Gibson.
the lawyer who was with Mrs. Rosa
Szabo when she met her death while
rowing on Greenwood Lake on July
16, will be asked for by the authori-
ties of Orange county, New York. The
autopsy performed on the exhumed
body of the Szabo woman showed that
the windpipe was wrenched out of
place and that the superficial appear
ance of the internal organs was such
as to cause the surgeons to retain
them for microscopic examination and
chemical analysis.
Lawyer Gibson said he would return
to this city from his country home
to await arrest
The physicians who performed the
autopsy, it was said, were agreed
that Mrs. Szabo's larnyx was found
to be so crushed and forced up into
her throat that it would have kept
water from entering her lungs so that
she must have died from strangula-
ton and not drowning.
Two Mrs. Mensehiks.
Private detectives claimed today to
have made important discoveries in
the case in the locating of two Mrs
Menschicks, who say they were ap-
preached about the time of Mrs. SEA-
bo's death by a man representing
himself as a lawyer and telling them
that he could put them in the way of
obtaining an estate that was left to
them. When he spoke of signing the
papers the women in both cases de-
murred.
Officials of the Austro- Hungarian
consulate here made an investigation
in the Szabo case and alleged that
Gibson in asking for the probate of
the s.abo will, lea ling an estate of
$4,000, asserted that Mrs. Szabo' s
mother, Mrs. Mensch!k, was still alive,
and to support hat statement Gibson
produced waiver of citation signed
ny he supposed mo;hcr. DR.. Fische-
rauer the Austro- Hungarian vice-con-
sui. alleges that Mrs. Menschik is
dead. !.

THE BoOo ON MAIDEN TRIP
WILL INACCURATE SERVICE
BETWEEN POINTS NAMED.
NOW READY FOR SEA
Opens Up Trade Relations With a
Territory New to This Section and
Adds to Importance of Brunswick
as a Port.

The steamer Bodo, owned by the
Bahama Lumber company, the largest
boat ever put on the marine ways in
Brunswick, which has been undergo
ing repairs at the Parker HenseH
plant, is now ready for sea and will
begin takin gon cargo this week. Her
first cargo will consist of miscellan-
eous freight, including a locomotive,
steam skidders for handling logs, steel
rails, hosting engines, ETC., consigned
to the company which owns her.
The Bodo is of steel construction
of 700 tons capacity, 200 feet long, %
foot beam, IS foot draft, and carries
a crew OF IS men with Capt. A. b.
Larson in command She will ply
regularly between Brunswick, the
Bahama Islands and Cuba and in so
doing will open up trade relations
with a new territory for this section
and adds one more link to the inn
portance of Brunswick as a port.
The Parker Hensell Engineering
company is gaining national re5u-
tation among steamship men that not

SECRETARY WEATHERLY RE.
cEIVEs WORD FROM SEcRE-
TARY CAMPBELL.
BRuNsWICEs UNITED PROTEST
Move Attempted on Part of A., 8. 6
A. Would React on the Business
Growth and Prosperity of City and
Should Be Prevented.

Secretary Weatherly of the board OF
trade, was advised yesterday by Wal
lace Campbell, secretary of the Geor-
gia railroad commission, that Octo
Der 8 had been set for a hearing on
the disseminating of local passenger
trains by the A., B. & A.
AS The News announced Saturday
morning, the A, B. & A. has filed a
petition with the state railroad COM
mission asking permission to discon-
tinue trains Nos. 5, 6, Z, 8, and 1C
between this city and Thalmann, the
only trains affording direct connec-
ton between Brunswick, Jacksonville
and Savannah.
With this announcement both the
board of trade and city council took
immediate action and at the coming
hearing, which will take place in At
1anta on the date named the board
of trade will be represented by Sec
rotary Weatherly the city by
Mayor Butts and City Attorney Col
son.
This unjust discrimination on the
part of the A, B. & A. would react
on the business growth and prosper
ity of Brunswick, and the prominent
business houses of the city should
also have representatives at the hear
ing.
AS The News has stated, Brunswick
is not going to ask anything unreal
sonable of the A, B. & A., but to
have all local trains taken off during
the winter when emigration south is
at its heighth is going little too
far and there is no doubt but that
the state railroad commission will
heed the united protest of the people
of Brunswick and the city will receive
just treatment
