NEGRO HUNT[D ALL DAY
But HE ELUDES PARTIES
Track Dogs Hot on Trail Of
Henry Austin

Allendale, S. c., May AFTER out
whiting and eluding bands of armed
men and track dogs all day, firing Oh
one party which attempted to stop him
in a public road about 2 o'clock this
morning, and escaping, being once
| driven beyond the state border into
Georgia, and later being forced to
cross back into South Carolina, Rich
ard Henry Austin, the negro who kill
ed two men and wounded four in
hampton county last night, was
pushed back by his pursuers inro
Coosawatchie swamp, not a great dis
lance from Barton, late this afternoon,
and early tonight the dogs have taken
the trail and the negro is believed to
have been located at O'Clock to-
night.
At that time it was the general
opinion of the 200-odd men in the party
that he would be captured before mid
night.
When it was discovered about 3
o'clock tonight that Austin had broken
through the thin line of men sur
rounding the bay from which he fired
killing two and wounding four, tn9
crowd was divided into smaller par.
ties and efforts made to take up his
trail. After midnight track dogs
from the chain gang of Barnwell coun-
ty did take the trail and followed il
about three miles. From one location
to another he has been driven about
in the swamps all day today.
At no time, though, did the dogs
take up the trail after they had reach
ed the blood spots and lost it in the
road this morning until about
o'clock this afternoon. One party of
men is securing that section between
the Coosawatchie and the Savannah
rivers, and another party is guarding
the swamp. The latter have the dogs
and from them comes the expression
of opinion that the negro will be taken
by midnight. Though the report came
from Hampton this afternoon that
the state of feeling had altered from
one of excitement to a determination
to make a memorable example" and
that there were free and frequent
threats of vengeance as a lesson" it
is not believed here tonight that any
general trouble is going to result from
the chase for Austin
Whenever and however Austin is
taken. in the event he should be cap
tured, there is no question now what
the disposition will be Nothing could
prevent a lynching and from the tenn
permanent Of the crowd, it is not to be
unexpected that fire will play its part.
One small posse of eight men trailed
the negro toward the Savannah river
swamp and about o'clock this after
noon five miles from the Savannah
river they left their automobile, on
account of a puncture. and were walk
ing along the roadway when their at
tention was attracted by some one
running through the underground mi
the woods. They stepped to one side
of the road, and, as Austin came out,
ordered him to stop. Instead he
paused a moment, opened fire on the
posse and turned back into the woods
The fire was returned and while blood
on the ground indicated that Austin
had been hit, he was not seriously
wounded

PUTS ON WAR PAINT
TO Fight jim NUGENT
President Has Strenuous
Night in New Jersey

Newark, May president Wilson
battled hard tonight in two speeches
at Newark and Elizabeth to wrest New
Jersey politics from what he termed
resumption of control by Jim Nil
gent and the old political machine"
Great crowds, frequent Interruptions
of applause and demonstrations of ap~
prevail greeted the president when he
put on his war paint" as he described
it, and campaigned in earnest to have
the power of drawing juries taken
from the sheriffs and placed in the
hands of a non-partisan commission.
He also pleaded for the calling of
constitutional convention and pointed
out that it was no longer regarded as
a radical procedure to change consti-
tutions in the United States.
The Old Gang in Jersey.
His two speeches were filled with
satirical characterization of what he
called the "old gang in New Jersey,
but he made it clear that his fight for
apparently a local issue was made
for the rank and file of the nation.
Il am sorry" he said at Elizabeth,
that l should have to come back to
criticise, but l must say that it is ia
miliar to have the war paint on n
New Jersey. And it is not singular
that we should always have to be fight
ing to get control of our own affairs.
I'VE want to redeem the jurispru-
dence of this state, not only of the sus-
picion, but of the stain that men are
not equally treated in the courts Of
law. The political machine where it
is misused in this state, as in every
other state of the union, is where the
machine controls the sheriff's Of

Most women suffer much humiliation
because of great quantities of fat, so To-
Gated that, no matter how they dress,
everybody sees that they are abnormal.
This is the day of the slender figure, and
fat women are simply not tolerated either
In business or social affairs. Women may
not know IT, but men when they see q fat
woman pass them on the street or In
public places make al manner OF sym
pathetic remarks about her. They do
not mean 10 be unkind or to seem IN
manly, but 1t Is natural for a man to
dislike fat on a woman. Where fat
shows the most there Is where IL must
be removed, n as quickly. as possible.
This seasons dresses seem to be made
for the fat woman's misery, and the slen-
der woman's delight. They expose all
the charms Of woman and her uglinesS
as well. Exercise and diet will not re-
move fat. This has been proved. The
