AUGUSTA GREETS TAFT
THE EX-PRESIDENT rs GIVEN A
WARM WELCOME.
The Former Chief Executive of the
Nation Shows His Hearty Apprecia-
tion of Loyal Friendship.


A welcome as demonstrative as Mr..
Taft ever received in Augusta while
president-elect or president of the
United States was given him Wednes-
day morning on his arrival al Angus
ia. With 1000 school children gath
cred in and around beautiful Barrett
place, Immediately in front Of the
union station, and with each waving
small American flag and cheering
at the top Of his young voice; with
$50 Richmond academy cadets drawn
up in military formation along Tel
fair street, where the former presi-
dent was driven on his way to his
zens, including the mayor, members
Of city council, prominent business
and professional men and many wo-
men, Mr.. Taft's entry into Augusta
was indeed triumphal.
"Citizen" Taft showed his appre-
citation of the great honor which the
people of Augusta were paying him,
purely because of their regard and
affection for him, and the famous
Taft smile was much In evidence
from the time that he left his private
car until an automobile whisked him
and Mrs. Taft and Miss Helen Taft
away to their hotel, where the ex-
president of the country says that he
will rest and recreate.
'I am impatient to get to my golf
sticks" said Mr.. Taft, "and I am in
deed glad Of the chance to come to
Augusta for few weeks"
The Taft private car, containing
Mr.. and Mrs. Taft and Miss Helen,
Mrs. Thomas W. Laughlin, Mr.. and
Mrs Charles D. Hilles and w. W.
Mischier, the stenographer who has
reported almost all of Mr.. Taft's pub
lie utterances from the time he was
president-elect until now, was at
tached to the Atlantic Coast Line
train reaching Augusta at S:55
O'Clock Wednesday morning.
In another car was party OF AZ
gustans who went on to Washington
to escort Mr.. Taft back home to Au-
gusta. Wednesday morning was TAX
en- up on the golf links until lunch
time. Wednesday afternoon. he evil
denced his entirely care-free feeling
when he and Mrs. Laughlin, accom-
panied only by the chauffeur, motor
ed through the streets of the city and
made a few informal calls.
Wednesday night Mr.. and Mrs.
Taft, Miss Taft, Mrs. Laushlin, Mr..
and Mrs. HilIes made up box party
at the theatre. by especial request
no formal entertainment or functions
have been arranged.

TWO SMALL BOYS HURT.
Playing With Dynamite Cap When 1t
Was Exploded.

Two small boys, Robert Bowers
and Langley Street, of Chester, sons,
respectively, of Ellis Bowers, a well
known Lancaster contractor and
builder, and Joseph Langley, a Sec
ton railroad, were badly injured
Tuesday afternoon by the explosion
of dynamite cap with which they
were playing. The boys found this
cap somewhere near the depot, and
thinking to have some fun they ap-
piled a match to it. The explosion
took place sooner than the youths ex-
pected, and before they could get
away. Bowers right arm and side
were terribly lacerated and otherwise
wounded, while his companion, tho
not so seriously hurt, will be in bed
several days from the effects OF his
injuries.

DEATH TO BLIND TIGERS
THE WEBB BILL PUTS THEM OUT
OF BUSINESS.
An Amendment to the Measure Pro-
hibits Liquor Shipped in This State
Except to Dispensaries.

The Greenville Piedmont says:
when the Webb liquor bill passed
by the recent Congress goes into ef-
feet which will be July l, not drop
of liquor can be shipped into Green
vile. Neither can a drop be shipped
into any other dry county in South
Carolina No intoxicating liquors can
be shipped inside the State except
when addressed to county dispensa-
ries established by the law.
"That the new law contained an
amendment affecting South Carolina
and that the amendment was SO dras-
tic did not become generally known
in this State until recently. How the
alert Washington correspondents hap
ren to let the people of the State re-
main in ignorance Of the sweeping
provision is mystery.
1.-THE general public is familiar
with the main provisions Of the Webb
bill as it was passed but were un-
aware of the fact that an amendment
had been tackled on to 1t affecting
this State. The general bill merely
provided that nc shipments Of Whis-
key should be made into dry terri
tory except for personal use". The
amendment which affects this State,
provides that no whiskey shall be
shipped into this State to anybody
for any use except the county dispen-
saries established by the law. A pri-
yate citizen of Greenyille can not,
under the law, order a gallon for his
own use.
There is a State law, which pro-
hibits the shipment of whiskey from
one point in the State to another and
as the Federal law will prohibit the
shipment from a point outside the
State, it would seem that there will
be no way in the world in which
whiskey may be legally received in
Greenville after July /.
1.-THE discovery by The Daily Pied
mont of the existence of this drastic
amendment to the Webb bill affecting
South Carolina, caused much sur
prise among those who were inform
ed of it. Several citizens stated that
they had followed the newspaper re-
ports Of the debate on the bill in Con-
gress but lad seen nothing about
such an amendment. Two or three
lawyers, who follow all matters of
legislation very closely, declared that
they had not heard OF the amend
ment and were very much surprised
by it.
"The general belize, however, was
that the bill would effectually crush
out the blind tigers in Greenville.
They will now be unable to get wh1s-
key to remain in business and the
prediction is freely made that they
will be forced to get out of the game.
The only way they can get it will be
to smuggle it from some still and this
would be too risky.
"The new amendment, in effect,
provides that no Intoxicating liquors
shall be- received, by the express COM
panies or other interstate carriers,
for, or delivered at, destinations in
the State of South Carolina, except
when addressed to county dispense
ries by law. If any such prohibited
shipments should reach their desti-
nation in this State, they must be re-
turned by the carrier to the consign-
or, who is subject to the charges both
ways

went to the scene of the tragedy but
did not enter. He told Of securing
the hat and clothing of the dead man
and subsequently having them de-
stroyed by fire. He took this action
in consideration of the grief-stricken
relatives. The witness told of find
ing Paul Riley's bicycle standing
against a tree or fence 20 or 80 feet
from the rear gate Of the Dickinson
residence.
J. w. Stokes, a farmer, told OF a
trip to the lot where the shooting
occurred and the finding Of watch
there which he later took to the in
quest. He saw chair at window
at the rear of the house. He de-
scribed a number Of gates there by
which the dead man might have en-
tered the lot. The witness knew
that Mr.. Riley and Mr.. Dickinson
married cousins but thought that the
two men had not spoken to each
other for some years.
H. H. Stokes, an assistant bank
cashier, attended the theatre the
evening of the tragedy and sat near
| the defendant On cross-eXamination
the witness explained how he would
go from the court house to the Dick
inson home and from the same spot
to the home Of the late Paul Riley.
DR.. F. B. McCracken left the
"show" shortly before the defendant
who was present. The witness had
been at his home some five or ten
minutes when he heard shot fired.
He went to the scene, but his testi-
mony was practically that already
| given by other witnesses.
w. D. Rhoad, a merchant, told OF
Mr.. Stokes giving him watch that
had been found. He in turn gave
the timepiece to the coroner. He
found a crowd on his arrival at the
Dickinson home following the shoot
| ing and participated in an investiga-
ton assisted by dim light and was
able to ascertain little from the tour
of inspection. The witness saw the
| chair referred to in previous testl-
| mony.
J. H. Zeigler, coroner Of Bambers
county, told of holding the inquest
and receiving a watch. He delivered
the watch to Mrs. Hunter, wife OF
the sheriff. She took it to a room
in the jail, where Mr.. Dickinson sat
Mrs. J. B. Hunter, wife of the for
mer sheriff, told of giving the watch
mentioned to the defendant after he
had furnished an accurate description
of it. Mrs. Hunter described the at
| tire of the defendant when he pre-.
sented himself at the Jail. He wore
| trousers over a night shirt and was
bareheaded and barefooted. The de-
fendant, said the witness, was IN an
agitated condition and told the wit
ness and her husband, the sheriff, OF
the affair at his home. The repeat
ed statements were the same already
quoted by other witnesses.
At the conclusion of Mrs. Hunter
testimony Solicitor Gunter announc'
ed that the State rested.
S. G. Mayfeld, for the defense, said
the defense would offer no testimony
resting its case on the evidence pre-
sented by the State.
Ole hour was assigned each side
for argument. P. T. HildebranC
