WATERMELONS The CAUSE
OF ILLNESS LOCALLY
Shipment of Fruit Was Con.
denned

| Sudden illness upon the part OF
several people here led to the inVes-
tigation by City Physician Chambliss
yesterday as to the possible origin of
the trouble, and the conclusion reach.
ed was that it resulted from having
eaten watermelons that were I'M
wholesome, but not in sufficient guam
tity to produce death, though several
people were made violently i'll.
Thorough investigation upon part If
Or. Chambliss revealed the fact, he
stated, that the suspected melons had
been sold by local dealer, who pur-
chased a carload shipped here from
South Georgia.
With this information at hand, DR..
Chambliss forbade further sale of the
suspected melons, and at the same
time had the dealer who had sold them
to at once notify all of his customers
who had bought melons. By thus hav-
ing taken prompt action, any other
possible trouble may have been avert
ed
Two people residing out on the
southside were made i'll, both of whom
had eaten of the melons, while al
entire family of negroes were render
eG violently i'll. Emetics were given
them in time, however, and no serious
consequences resulted. DIR. Chambliss
as a precautionary measure, sent d
portion of one of the melons to the
statec hemist, and his report there
upon will determine if the melons had
really been poisoned. This might pos
sibly have been done by the grower
in order to catch thieves, and the
melons shipped later by mistake.
DR.. Chambliss stated yesterday that
several of the melons contained
slight puncture, as though made VITA
= needle, and poison might have been
injected into them by that means.

FARMERS AWAIT A
GENERAL rain HERE
Crops Are in Need of Good
Rain

While the long-expected general rain
so much needed throughout Sumter
county, has not yet materialized, show
ers in several localities during the
past two or three days have afforded
at least temporary relief from the
oppressive heat, and benefit to the
growing crops.
Cotton, as well as corn, needs rain
very much just now, and as the fields
are clean of grass and well worked,
general rain would prove most ben
efcial. The cotton crop is very late
this year, even that of the first plant
ing being small in comparison with
the growth of the plant at this date
last season.
Both the old and the replanted crops
must be worked for several weeks
yet, and rain will be essential Pros
poets are favorable and farmers hope
for general rain over the county
within a day or two.

To Forget $4,000 Bond.

Washington, d. c., July 11.-JaCk
Johnson's announcement that he would
never return to the United States caus-
ed department of justice officials i'm
mediately to consider steps to bring
about the forfeiture of his 100000
personal bond pending in Chicago for
his appealance in connection with
white slave indictments upon which he
has not yet been tried.
Judge Carpenter a few days ago de-
clined to declare the bond forfeited
until it was clear that Johnson would
not appear when wanted.
The department of justice, it is said,
will probably seek official confirma-
ton of his announced purpose not to
return and present the matter again
to Judge Carpenter
Government attorneys expressed no
regret over the negro's announcement
A few days ago officials considered the
advisability Of asking France to de-
port him upon arrival but it was de-
cided to let the case take its usual
course. Their view was that there
could be no objection to his absence
from the country, and if he should ever
return the years Imprisonment SEN
tence would always be enforceable pro-
vided the circuit court of appeals 40
proved the verdict.
Jack Johnson may not find refuge
in France. in the opinion of the state
department Officials, They say that
while probably there is no provision in
the extradition treaty with France I'M
der which his surrender could be de-
manded, the French authorities, even
without a formal appeal from the gov
eminent, may deport Johnson, as like
all European countries, France is I'M
derstood to have laws prohibiting thu
immigration of a person convicted of
crime in his own country
