MINERS AND ARMED GUARDS
BATTLE-GUARDS ROUTED

Calumet, Mich, Sept. 30.-Striking
copper miners in Keenewa County to-
day succeeded in turning back sew
eral carloads of armed guards, i'm
ported in special train from New
York City. The train bearing the
New York gunner was rushed
through Calumet without stop, but
a few miles outside of Ahmeek it was
halted by piles of ties on the tracks.
The guards opened fire on mob of
strikers there and the fire was re-
turned. Every window in the train
was broken, but as far as could be
learned no one was injured.
Unable to reach Ahmeek by train,
the guards returned to. Calumet and
were rushed into the Keweena dis
trict in automobiles. =
For the first time in many weeks
the rioting in the strike district was
serious today. Made confident by the
arrival of reinforcements, the mine
guards were even more insolent and
overbearing than usual in their treat
ment of the strikers and general dis
orders resulted. The scalpt of wo-
man strike sympathizer was laid open
by the billy of a Wadden detective
when guards engaged in fight with
paraders. The woman's condition is
serious.

JUROR REFUSES TO ACT.
Sat Reading Newspaper While Others
Tried to Render Verdict.

There was a peculiar case in Mag
istrate E. Powers court Thursday. 1t
was peculiar in that one of the jurors
refused to express himself or vote on
the case, or say what he wished
to do with the case. He sat in the
jury room for about an hour and read
a newspaper, refusing to take any
part in the deliberations of the jury
or to allow them to reach verdict of
any kind. The other jurors finally
reported the condition of affairs to
Judge Powers, and he ordered a mis-
trial.
1t was suit of Manly Boon against
F. w. Lindsey, of Brownsville, for a
balance of $54 claimed to be due for
labor for this year. Lindsey claimed
that the amount had been paid.
The case will be tried again at some
future date.-Pee Dee Advocate.

STOLEN JAM COSTS $1,000.
Servant Girl Gets Verdict for Blow
Received When She Reproved Boy.

A verdict of $1,000 damages
against a 13-year-old boy has been
returned by jury before Supreme
Court Justice Cohalan, and the Court
refused to set aside the verdict. The
plaintiff was Ann White, servant
employed in the family of Walter B.
Chambers, a wealthy architect at 109
Broad street, who lives at 161 East
64th street. She sued his son, Wal
ter, on the ground that three years
ago he struck her in the breast when
she reproved him because he was
helping himself to jam in the pantry.
Her testimony showed that cancer
developed from the boys blow.
AS the boy will have no property
from which the judgment can be
collected until after he is of legal
age, the plaintiff will be compelled
to wait for some years, unless the
Judgment is settled in his behalf be-
fore that time.-New York Sun.

FAMOUS WALNUTS TO GO.
Woodmen Cutting Illinois Tract Of
400 Acres Never Before Touched.

Woodmen entered the Makemson
tract of timber four miles east OF
Danville, October l, and began cut
ting the worlds largest forest of
virgin walnut timber. For the first
time in the memory of the Oldest in
habitant woodmen were allowed to
enter the 400-acre tract, which was
closed to the inspection of all save
the close friends of Hirem Makemson
during his life.
The forest land came into the pos
session of the Makemson family by
means of a Government land patent.
BY both Hiram and his son it was
held sacred. All about the tract were
well-tilled acres, but not even stock
was permitted in the wooded park
until after the death of its jealous
guardian, some months ago. In set
tling up the estate sale was ordered
by the Court. An Indian firm of
lumber buyers purchased the walnut,
paying $4,000 for the timber just
as it stands. The ash timber brought
$4,000 more, while the hickory, elm
and oak and smaller timber brought
the total price for the standing tim
Der close to S150,000.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

fight for higher price cotton has been
and what the fight in the future will
be. To the farmers ignorance OF
grades and of marketing conditions
were attributed the low prices in the
past
Senator Smith told Of the tests he
was instrumental in having made to
determine the value of yarns made
from various grades. These showed
that with equal conditions the yarn
made from low grade or blue cotton
was as good as that made from the
highest grades. The Senator outlined
his work in the fight on the cotton
futures tax Investigation, increased
price of soda, and other matters vi
tally affecting the farmers. His
speech was heard with close attention
and he seems to have the support
of a large number of farmers in this
county. Chairman Rhode, Of the
national commission of the farmers
union, followed Senator Smith with
an excellent address.

SUMTER LADY INJURED.
Mrs. George F. Epperson Victim of
Peculiar Accident.

Sumter, Nov. 4.-What was a
most unusual accident, caused pain
full, but not serious, injury to Mrs.
George F. Epperson here today.
While cranking Mrs. Epperson's car
for her a pistol dropped from the
pocket of Policeman J. NJ. Lawrence
and the weapon was discharged, the
ball striking Mrs. Epperson in the
leg near the knee and making its
way for nearly foot through the
flesh before it emerged just below
the thigh.
After the accident Mrs. Epperson
was taken to the hospital, where it
was found that none of the main
blood vessels had been cut and the
bullet had not struck the bone.
While the wound is said to be very
painful it is flesh wound and not
considered serious, although it is
probable that Mrs. Epperson will
have to remain at the hospital for
some time.
The accident occurred when Mrs.
Epperson came from store and
started to crank the car. The po-
liceman offered to crank it for her
and she was standing on the side
walk a few feet away directing him
when the pistol dropped. Policeman
Lawrence had the pistol in holster,
but it was not belted in. He stated
that he had always been accustomed
to carrying it in this way and it had
never fallen out bef fore, even when
making arrests and holding unruly
prisoners. He deeply deplores the
occurrence, as do the other mem
bers of the police department. Mrs.
Epperson's friends are sorry for her
injury, but are glad that she was
not more seriously wounded and
hope for her speedy recovery.

A certain New York hotel manager

keeping them in ignorance OF any
happening around the place. He hired
a new bell boy recently. and gave
him the usual warning:
Remember" he warned. III any
thing happens around here I'm to be
the first person to know about it."
Soon after that he was showing
three naughty Daughters OF the Con-
federacy one OF the best rooms In the
place, when the new bell boy rushed
In with his hair on end.
Something's happened" he yelled.
The three Daughters OF the Con-
federacy turned coldly. and the man
ager, anxious to get rid OF the boy.
demanded to know the trouble.

the boy, has just had kittens. What
shall we do?"

Scored Another Hit.

The reproduction of the Peter
Pan Ministries at the Grand last
evening attracted a larger crowd
than did the first performance
on Monday night, and needless
to say the show was extraordin-
arlly good from start to finish.
The cast was virtually the same
as Monday night, but the jokes
and some of the specialties were
new. Master Harry Patton, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. F. M. Patton, of
Savannah, scored quite hit in
his two rag-rime songs and the
hearty applause was well-earned
as the young fellow has an UNI
usually good voice for a child.
