Astronomical Sharp Assures Clergy

15,00O,OG0 Years.

Philadelphia, Dec. 15.-Replying to
question put by clergyman at the
weekly meeting of Presbyterian min
listers to-day Eric Doolittle, director of
the University of Pennsylvania as
Economical observatory, said he
thought that life On this earth would
come to an end in about 15,000,0OO
years.
Prof. Doolittle had been making an
address on Astronomy in Reference
to the End of the Earth's Life" He
said:
"Unless some supernatural power
or being interferes or the earth comes
in contact with another planet or
heavenly body, the earth will exist
for 100000 more years.
"The earth is dependent upon the
sun for its heat and light, although
the earth now contains some heat it
self When the sun cools the result
will be darkness and cold, which will
bring an end to all life, animal and

P. Grace, OF Charleston, against Con-
gressman R. S. Whaley. One OF the
Two Republican members Of the COM

Mr.. Borchers of Illinois, voted with
Representative Frear, of Wisconsin,
Republican, for investigation.
There will be a majority report
which will be formulated Jointly by
Chairman Post and Representative
French. Mr.. Frear's report will rep
resent his own views only, as Repre-

HAD NO STATE LICENSES
Stopped Sport OF Emerson Party, Says
Chief Game Warden-One Tried
And Acquitted.

Columbia, December l6.-Issac 4.
Emerson, the "Bromo Seltzer King.
who owns hunting preserve in
GEORGETOWN county, took his party OF
wealthy northerners out Of the State
on a special train Sunday afternoon
when Caief Game Warden A. A. Rich
ardson got in behind them for hunt
ing without licenses. according to in
formation given out to-day by Mr..
Richardson, who had just returned
from Georgetown where he said one
of the party George w. Ewing, of
Baltimore. Nd, was dismissed on a
technicality at hearing before
magistrate for hunting in the State
without a lisense.
According to a statement from Chief
Game Warden Richardson, he sent his
assistant Mr. Funderburk, to George
town county to look over the cituation
when he felt that there were not as
many nonresident hunting licenses
being reported from that county as he
was certain there should be. Deputy
Funderburk reached Georgetown on
Thursday and found he states that Mil
lionaire Emerson was entertaining a
party of wealthy tourists, none Of
whom had licenses as far as he could
ascertain.

but that he would listen and give his
time provided every one behaved in a
gentlemanly manner.
1t was evident from that point on,
that much bad feeling was to be
shown. and this continued until final
adjournment at o'clock. Time and
AGAIN through the proceedings Mr..
Grace was admonished that he must
not coach witnesses, that he must con-
fine himself to facts and not hearsay,
and that the committee was becomiG&
exceedingly weary Of hearing about
what he meant to produce hereafter.
Although Mr.. Grace submitted a
dozen or more affidavits they were al
along the hearsay line and amounted
to little. Something he did say, how
ever, attracted attention. He told the
committee that he followed the ad-
vice of Senator TiIlman in filing the
original petition and that ne had beg
ged several members Of the South
Carolina delegation in the house to
protest against Mr.. Whaley taking his
seat and that he thought until the
very last moment that Representative
Johnson would do so, but that the
latter at last failed to act. He said
Mr.. Johnson feared hot fight in his
own district in the coming election.
Mr.. Grace told much about E. w.
Hughes and George Won Kolnitz and
their past political records, but as it
did not bear directly on the question
of Mr.. Whaley's conduct it made little
impression on the committee.
Shocked at Martin,
Discussing the position of Sheriff j,
Elmore Martin in the matter and how
he had turned from Won Kolnitz to
Whaley in the second primary Grace
said it was question Of ''who had
the most money" He said he knew
Martin bought votes some years ago
in another contest because he say
MIN to do it and was shocked.
Referring more directly to Mr.
Whaley's alleged purchase of votes,
Mr.. Grace said that Whaley sent men
to his (WhaIey's) cashier to get the
money and that they got it by the
thousands.
He said also that F. C. Peters had
been given the position of collector of
the port to pay him back for what
he had done for Mr. Whaley.
Mr.. Grace said the election in the
First District was hurried up and it
was understood that certain cotton
mill interests had spent something
like $4,000 to secure Whaleys cleo
ton because they were not satisfied
with certain features Of the tariff bill
which was then pending.

Grace Shows Anger.

Washington, Dec. 15.-The house
committee on elections, which for the
past two or three montase has been
endeavoring to get at the truth of
the charges filed by Mayor John P.
Grace of Charleston against Repre-
sentative Richard S. Whaley, spent the
entire day listening to further testi
mony and affdavits submittd by Mr.,
Grace.
Mr.. Grace began the undertaking
OF the day by bringing to Washington
two character" witnesses, Joan L,
Cosgrove and Charles Bresnahan, the
former young lawyer in the Office OF
Logan & Grace, and the latter gar
bage collector of the city of Charleston
serving under Mayor Grace. BY these
witnesses Mr.. Grace hoped to upset
much OF the matter which had been
submitted by Mr.. Wnaley.
To show that Cosgrove was a relia-
bic man there was produced a letter
from President Randolph Harrison Of
the College of Charleston which
gave him a good name. Another wit
ness-A. C. Moses, a Washington bus
mess man-said that Mr. Cosgrove,
while employed here during the time
ne was student at Georgetown uni
versity, gave entire satisfaction in the
handling of certain funds entrusted
to his care.

Knew But Little.

CosgroVe, who was summoned to
testify concerning Charleston witness
es, did not know more than small
portion of the men whose names were
signed to affidavits To some Of these,
as their names were called, he would
answer good > bad, very bad or
otherwise as the case might be
The main thing that Cosgrove testi-
fed was that the reputation Of Magis-
trate J. J. O'Shaughnessy of Charles
ton, who had been claimed to be one of
the main Whaley workers, was very
bad for honesty, and that recently ne
had been ordered removed from his
position, that certain influences had
been at work and he had thus been
able to retain his place
Eliminating what both Cosgrove
and Bresnahan said as of practically
no value, nothing Of interest develop

Scores Commission Form of Gov
ernment Declaring 1t to be
Farce.

Columbia, December 17-Comp-
! troller General Jones to-day sent out.
blanks to the State and county officers
for them to send to him their estimates
of the needs for their respective de-
partments for next year. Each Office
reports to the Comptroller General
the amount of money they need to run
their department for the year, and the
Comptroller General will compile the
estimates and make up the budget for
next year for presentation to the
General Assembly.
1t is estimated that the budget for
next year for all State and county Of
fees will reach $2,5OO,OOO. The esti-
mates for this year were for over
$2,4O0,000, but the General Assembly
trimmed this down to about 100000
which was covered in the annual ap-o
preparation bill. The budget as made
up by the Comptroller General will be
sent to the House ways and means
committee for guidance in making up
the appropriation bill.
The State board of claims, to pass
on claims which will come before the
General Assembly, will meet to-mor-
row morning at 10 o'clock in the Office
of the Comptroller General. Claims ag-
gregating several thousand dollars
have been filed to be passed on by the
board. It's finding will be reported to

Scores Government. By Commission.
Governor Blease this morning scored
the commission form of government
and said that he hoped the recall
would be invoked in every city in t3e
State before Christmas where that
provision is in force. He said that he
was glad that the recall had been in
voked in Orangeburg, that while he
didn't care who was mayor of that
town still he wanted the peopleto see
just wnat their Representatives had
] put on them. There is no democracy
in the commission form; its a farce"
declared the governor forcibly.
When the commission lorm was
passed it was vetoed by Governor
! Blease, but was passed over his veto.
The Governor this. morning denounced
the provision wherein 20 per cent of
the voters could recall any official
why they could have an election
every thirty days, he declared, point
ing out what in his opinion is one of
the greatest weaknesses in the Com
mission Act
81 hope they will all use the recall
said the Governor, ito show to the peo-
pie what a nuisance the legislature
put on them. And hope they will
keep on recalling them said the Gov
ernor, pointing out the fact that it was
possible to recall the officials every
month 1t would be an endless sys-
tenn calculated to wear out any Off
cials, even though they were reelected
every time, as was pointed out by the
Governor this morning.
1t is thought. in Columbia that an
amendment raising the minimum re-
quirement of the percentage of voters
to sign a recall petition before it is ef-
fective will be offered in tle coming
session of the General Assembly
