stove" said the big pitcher. II l
cannot get enough of the necessary
big league speed on the ball to make
me a pitcher, why ! can go some IN
the outield. and if am in there every
day / will make all the outfelders
hop around. l never was a regular
when I was in st. Louis, and when
fellow cannot play every day he can
not come up to requirements. / am
going to prove that to Chance next
year."
Now it is Marsans who at least one
New York writer is picking to help
bolster the Giants for the race of 1914.
The writer. Sam Crane, says the
Cuban Is a player worthy to become
a member of the New York outfeld
because he possesses great speed and
has all the characteristics of born
ball player. He says he knows Nc
Graw thinks we'll of the member OF
the Cincinnati Reds, and he does not
think it would be hard for the leader
Of the Giants to arrange a deal with
Manager Joe Tinker.
According to gossip among the few
ball-players left around these parts,
writes Bozeman Bulger of New York,
McGraw and Jimmy Callahan are
going to be hard pushed for athletes
when they sail from Vancouver for
Japan. Ballplayers are noted for their
fear of long sea trips, and IL is said
that number of them will back out
as soon as the transforming trip
through the West has ended.
Among those who are expected to
quit at Vancouver are Mathewson,
Meyers, Snodgrass, Speaker and Craw-
ford II others drop off McGraw Will
have less than Is players to 90 around
the world, and the White Sox will be
just as badly off unless new men are
recruited.
Besides the aversion 70 sea
voyages the players do not like the
idea of playing four months for their
expenses. Those who have taken
their wives along will also be put to
something like $1,000 additional ex-
pense. On account of bad weather
the trip thus far has not been a big
paying one, and the players are be-
ginning to wonder if they can get out
even. Their arrangement with the
managers is that their expenses shall
be paid, and If money is made they
are TO share in the profits. None OF
the players are paid salaries.

Red Cross Seal Commission Has
Booth at the State Fair.

Columbia, Oct. 27.-Special: The
work of the Red Gross Seal Commits
sion is progressing rapidly and sue
cessfully. The magnitude of the un-
dertaking may be seen from the size
OF the order for seals and advertising
material which the American Nation
al Red Cross has just shipped to the
commissions headquarters at Column
bia. The order consists Of 1000 ad-
vertising cards, 10000 envelopes,
10000 blotters, and 100000 Christ
mas seals. The active selling season
for the seals is from Thanksgiving to
Christmas. During the next month
this great mass of material will be
shipped out to the many public spir-
tied men and women throughout the
State who have consented to act as
agents. AS evidence of the wide in
terest and the hearty spirit of Coop
GRAFTON the movement is meeting on
all sides, may be cited the fact that
the Southern Express Company,
through Vice President Loop, has
agreed to handle the commission S
shipments free of charge. The COM
mission is plannig to establish a
booth at the State Fair, so that Wis
itors from all parts of South Caro-
lima may become acquainted with
the aims and methods Of the crusade

FISHER ARRESTED FOR LIBEL.
Blackmail Plot Now Charged i'm the
Leo Frank Case.

Atlanta, Oct. 22.-Detectives in
Atlanta and Birmingham are to-day
working to uncover what they claim
Will prove to be a blackmail plot in
the Phagan murder case.
The arrest last night Of Ira W.

fronted by the man he accused, but

EASY RELIEF
FROM CONSTIPATION.
The Remedy thai Replaces Calomel.
Causes No Restriction of Habit
or Diet,

1t is mistake to take calomel
when yo r liver is lazy and needs
toning UP. Hundreds Of people in
this section have discovered that
Dodsor's Liver Tone is a thousand
times better and safer and it's action
is just as sure. There are none of
the bad after-effects of calomel to
Dodson's Liver Tone and no danger
Of salvation.
For attacks Of consultation or bill
iousness one or two spoonfuls of this
mild, pleasant-tasting vegetable IL
quid are enough and Bells drug
store gives personal guarantee that
every bottle will do all that Is claim
ed for it. Money back in any case
where it fails.
Dodson's Liver Tone costs only so
cents for large bottle. Remember
the name because there are any num-
Der of remedies sold in imitation of
Dodson claims. Some Of them have
names very similar to Dodson's s Liver
Tone-and are in same color pack
age. These limitations are not guar
anteed and may be very harmful. Go
to Bells drug store and you will
surely get the genuine. adv.

% OFFICIALS INDICTED.
Conspiracy Alleged to Defraud East
st. Louis Of 100000.

st. Louis, Oct. 22.-Wholesale in
dictments against most of the men,
bers of the city administration of
East st. Louis, which went out of Of
hce last spring, were returned to-day
by the grand jury that has been in
Vestigating charges of municipal ir-
Irregularities.
TWenty-eight persons were indict-
ed, including twenty-four former city
officials. Among those indicted were
Chas. S. Lambert, former mayor; e.
f. Gerold, foremr city treasurer, and
fourteen Of the sixteen members Of
the city council of 1912.
Most Of the indictments charge
conspiracy to defraud the city of va
rious sums of money. The frauds
aggregate, it is charged, 100000.
Some of the men in the list are men,
bers of the present administration.
Tho indictments were returned in
the court Of Judge w. NJ. Vandeven-
ter, East st. Louis, and were the re-
suit OF long investigation by the
grand jury, which followed charges
of graft published in a st. Louis
newspaper. About the same time a
former member Of the city council
signed sworn confession.

Watch Carefully
the ChiId's Diet
START THEM OFF RIGHT WITH A
GOOD LAXATIVE AND THEN
WATCH THEIR FOOD.

Mothers are often unconsciously
very careless about the diet of their
children, forcing all to eat the same
foods. The fact Is that all foods do
not agree alike with different per-
sons. Hence, avoid what seems to
constipate the child or to give 1t in
digestion, and urge it to take more
OF what Is quickly digested.
If the child shows a tendency to
constipation it should immedi ately
be given mild laxative to help the
bowels. BY this is not meant a
physic or purgative, for these should
never be given to children, nor any
thing like salts, pills, etc. What the
child requires Is simply small dose
OF the gentlest of medicines, such as
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which,
in the opinion Of thousands OF watch
full mothers, is the ideal remedy for
any child showing a tendency to con-
stipation. SO many things can hap
pen to a conStipated child that care
is necessary. Colds, piles, headaches.
sleeplessness, and many other an
noyances that children should not
have can usually be traced to consti-
patton.
Many Of Americas foremost fami-
lies are never without Syrup Pepsin,
because one can never tell when some
member Of the family may need it.,
and all can use 1t. Thousands en-
dorse it, among them Mrs. NJ. e. Pat
ten, Valley junction, Iowa, who is
never without it in the house. Mrs

KNIFE TO CURE CRIMINALS.
Operations Performed at Instance, OF
Circuit Court Judge.

Chicago, Oct. 23.-Four patients
were operated on to-day by DR.. e. H.
Pratt, Of Evanston, in an effort to
eliminate criminal tendencies and
moral deficiencies. The operations
were performed at the instance of
Judge Geo. w. Bridgeman, Of the
Circuit Court, Of St. Joseph, Mich,
who has announced that hereafter he
will not sentence any one convicted
in his court of moral crimes to peni-
tentiaries or insane asylums until
the knife has had an opportunity to
regenerate the mind affected.
For obvious reasons the names of
the persons upon whom the opera
tions are performed will be withheld.
DR.. Pratt, in discussing the subject
recently with Judge Bridgeman, said
that the operations would not destroy
any organ or function of the mind or
body, but merely would remove alb
normal conditions affecting nerve
centers.
Two Of those who went under DR..
Pratt's knife recently at st. Francis
Hospital, Evanston, are brother and
sister, both under 20 years Of age.
If DR.. Pratt succeeds in overcoming
their moral weakness, the charges
pending against them in Judge
Blidgeman' Court will be dismissed
Both are said tO ba rocovaripe r,p
idly from the effects Of the opera
tions.
To-day's patients were two men
and two children, against whom
charges are pending in the Michigan
court.

LOUISIANA SWEPT BY STORM.
Many Lives Lost-Damage to Prop
erty Runs Into Millions.

New Orleans, Oct. 23.-A terrific
storm that is reported to have cost
at least nine lives, injured almost
half hundred persons and did great
property damage swept over a mar
row strip Of Southern Louisiana early
to-day. Wires are down southwest
Of this city and news Of the storm 8
damage did not reach here until af-
ternoon.
All wires to Southwest Louisiana
are down and no news at all of what
happened in large section Of the
State is available. At 2 O'Clock there
was no communication west Of Thi-
bodaux, in LaFourche parish.
Many Persons Killed.
From ThibodauX came a brief re-
port that four had been killed there,
a white woman, Mrs. Born, and her
baby and two negroes. Eleven per-
sons are said to have been hurt there.
property damage is heavy
Five are reported to have been
hllleu at Lullng, La, few miles di-
rectly west Of New Orleans. 1t is
said they were all negroes. Twenty
six were reported injured in and
about Luling. The property damage
to the Luling plantation is estimated
at $3.50, 700, mostly to the sugar
cane crop.
Apparently the storm did it's great
est damage in narrow strip in the
southern part of the State, although
wire communication with some points
in the northern part Of the State was
uncertain since early to-day
1t is believed the storm was part
of the one that deluged Southern
Texas yesterday, that it swept east
and gained in wind velocity as it pro-
'ceeded.
