Stripped Of His Possessions.

ST. petersburg, Jan. 16.-Because
he married a woman in private life
against the will Of the Emperor, the
Grand Duke Michael, brother OF En-
peror Nicholas, was to-day removed
from his lofty rank in the army and
forced to turn over his property and
affairs to a guardian.
The Imperial manifesto specifically
relieves the Grand Duke Of his dnt!ns
as commander OF the chevalier
guards and establishes a guardian
ship over his person, property and
affairs under the supreme direction
OF the Emperor, while the admins
tration Of his estate is transferred to
a department Of the Imperial Court.
The manifesto also removes the
Grand Duke from his position as re-
gent-designate during the minority
Of the Imperial Crown Prince in case
of the death Of the present Emperor.

TO G. e. O. MITCHELL.
As He Was Regarded by One Who
Knew Him ..ell.

Editor Keowee Courier: The wri-
ter was greatly grieved to read the
announcement that G. e. o. Mitchell
was dead. | am quite sure that
Westminster in particular, and all of
Oconee county, has suffered a dis
tinct and heavy loss in this the pass
ing away of one of her most devoted
and public-spirited citizens, than
whom no more useful and helpful
citizen ever lived in the county.
1t was my pleasure to be associ-
ated in business with Mr.. Mitchell
for a number of years, and in this
way we became quite intimate, and
the longer we were in business to-
gether the more magnetism he dis
played. Being of a quiet and retired
disposition, no one would realize his
true worth on meeting him, but long
before our business was dissolved his
noble, high-toned, honorable and low
able life showed up with resplendept
force.
G. E. o. Mitchell has passed to the
great beyond, but his life and char
acter will for long time be an in
spiration and an example for good
to those who were SO fortunate as to
be associated with him.
In writing the above l realize that
my pen is too feeble to comment ad-
equately on such a character as was
his. w. A. Strother.

Ironing Done With Feet.

One Of the most curious sights
which beheld in Cairo, writes a cor
respondent of the Wide World was
men ironing with their feet. They
had not been mixing their drinks; it
is simply a custom of the country.
These men were employed in the ma
tive tailoring establishments. Except
for long iron handle the irons were
shaped like the ordinary flatiron,
only larger. A solid block Of wood
rested on the top Of the iron, and on
this the men placed one foot, guiding
the iron in the direction desired, by
means Of the handle. For the sake
Of convenience the ironing boards
were raised only a few inches, and
however strange the method may
seem to our ideas, 1T certainly does
the work we'll and expeditiously.

HON. A. @. JONES TAKES LIFE.
No Cause Known for Act Except Ill
Health.

| Spartanburg. Jan. 15.-Telling his
wife that he was going to the wood
house for some fuel, A. G. Jones, a
travelling salesman, formerly can
didate for Governor of South Caro-
| lima, and one of the most widely
known men In the State, went to a
| little clubhouse in the back yard of
his homo on Converse Heights, this
morning at 10 o'clock and shot and
instantly killed himself. An inves-
tigation was at once held, but the
officials were convinced that it was a
quest was held.
Mr. Jones had been in i'll health
for about two weeks. He was a suf-
ferer from severe attack Of grip,
but this morning was much improved
and had planned to come up street.
But at 10 o'clock he went alone to
the little wood house and fired one
shot from a 38-calibre pistol. The
ball took effect in the right temple
and death resulted instantly. There
were no eye-witnesses to the tragedy,
but several persons heard the shot.
They hurried to the scene, but Mr..
Jones never spoke after the shot.
The Jones home is situated on Ma
pie street, which runs parallel to East
Main street. The little wood house
is about one-half block from East
Main street, and about twenty yards
from the back door of the house. 1t
was a narrow little shed, and Mr.
Jones, after shooting the fatal shot,
fell backward and his head rested on
tho door sill. The pistol was found
near his feet, where he had dropped
it while standing up before he fell
backward.
DR.. j. f. Edwards, who lives neG"-
by, was at once summoned, and when
he arrived a few minutes after the
shot was fired, Mr.. Jones was dead.
DR.. Edwards stated that Mr.. Jones
had been sick for two weeks, and was
Respondent at times. He recently
changed his business connections, but
it is not thought that this had any
thing to do with his dependency,
and that 1t was rather the result Of
i'll health. He was unquestionably
temporarily deranged at the time he
fired the fatal shot. He left no note
or message to his family.

NO, YOU CAN'T SHIP BABIES
by Parcels Post-5ccs and Bugs
Have Preference.

Washington, Jan. 16.-The mail
ing of babies by parcels post is a real
infant industry which Postmaster
General Hitchcock is asked to foster.
In the circumstances of his bache-
lorhood, Mr.. Hitchcock has consider
ed seriously the calling into consul
tatiOn of experts in the transporta-
tiOn of babies, as a letter which he
received to-day presents to him n
problem with which he is quite un-
familiar. TO add to his embarrass-
ment the letter contains a note Of
genuine pathos which appeals strong
ly to the postmaster general. This
is letter identically as it was
phrased and punctuated:
Eft. Mcpherson Ga.
POSTMASTER General:

cations to use in wrapping so it
(baby) would comply with regula-
tions and be allowed shipment by
parcel post as the express co are to

The name signed to the letter is
withheld at the request of Mr. Hitch
cock.
AS babies, in the opinion Of the
postmaster general, do not fall within
the category Of bees and bugs, the
only living things that may be trans
ported by mail, he is apprehensive he
may not be Of assistance to his cor
respondent.

Andrew l. wis Home Burned.
(Anderson Mail, 18th

The Andrew Lewis old home, on
the road to Clemson College from
Cherry's station, was destroyed by

also much other valuable old furni-
ture and antiques. 1t Is not known

The Harvesting of Tallulah Falls.

The development Of Tallulah Falls
by the Georgia Railway and Power
Company is going to rank as one of
the great engineering feats Of the
age, according to the belief Of dis
tinguished engineers who have re-
Gently viewed the site.
In the development of the falls
the natural beauty of the surround
ings will not be marred, says a dis
patch sent out from Atlanta. The
magnificent scenic effects will be en-
hanced rather than disfigured
With the development of the falls,
power, light and hea. will be carried
to thousands of communities, many
Of which have not had any power or
electricity before.
The height Of the~dam is 115 feet;
the legnth is $50 feet, while the base
Is approximately 100 feet The
length of the tunnel through which
the Tallulah River is to flow is
6,663 feet, and this Is the really re-
markable feature of the develop
ment, as nearly every foot of the way
Is hewn thorugh the solid rock. The
lake, seven miles from the power
house, will hold 1905, 100000 cubic
feet of water.

Mrs. Rozibelle Carter, wife of N. f.
Carter, a daughter of Nick Rholet-
ter. She leaves small son and her
husband to mourn their great loss:
a loving father and mother, one sis

was a favorite with all who knew her
and it is hard to give her up.
'Tis hard to break the tender cords
When love has bound the heart;
IT'S hard, so hard. to speak the
words,
we must forever part"
But again we hope to meet her
When the day Of life Is fled,
And in heaven with JOY to greet her,
Where no farewell tears are shed.
To her dear ones we would saw.
weep not for her, though gone.
While her body rests in the cemerery
at Damascus awaiting the resurrec-
ton, her spirit Is safe with the an
gels at home.
She was a member of Unity Baptist
church for some years and was still
IN the bloom of life, being but 30
years old. 'Tis sad when one SO
young is taken from our midst, but

Founders Day Was FIttingly Cele-
brated In Columbia Thursday.

Columbia, Jan. 16.-"Founders
Day" at the University Of South Car
olina closed brilliantly tonight with
the address of Charles Francis
Adams, of Massachusetts, in which
me reviewed his fifty years of expert
ence in a public career and gave his
estimate Of men and movements in
that time.
One OF the most effective incidents
of the celebration was the presenta-
ton to Mr.. Adams, at the close Of his
address, Of a floral emblem by the
NJ. c. Butler and Wade Hampt ton
chapters Of the Daughters OF the
Confederacy. The presentation, on
the platform, was made by James
SimonS, Of Charleston. In beautiful
ly chosen words he dwelt on Mr..
Adams's services in behalf of the
whole country, saying that no man
has done so much to restore good
feeling between the North and South.
1O8 Years Old.
A hundred and eight years ago the
doors Of this ancient institution were
opened to the youth Of the State. The
college grew out OF the message Of
Governor John Drayton, on Novem-
Der %, 1901. He called for an irsti-
tuition mot prompted by local views
or party prejudices, but springing
from the united voice Of an Clighten-
ed Legislature; projected as a rally
ing point Of union, friendship and
learning for the youth from all parts
of the State. May the kindeSt favor
OF Heaven smile on this national un-
dertaking, may no cnvious opposition
disturb its progress and may the
thanks of a great people remain with
IL those who have been or shall he
instrumental in establishing and sup
porting this institution, equally hon
orable to their heads and their
hearts"
Beginning with thirty students in
1905, the enrolment OF the Univer-
sity the present year will exceed 500.
The influence of the University is

State, rendering service to the peo-
pie, in building good roads, in better
ment Of the common schools and pro-
noting public health and sanitation
and the work for the enrichment of
rural life. BY extension lectures and
practical bulletins the University is
identifying itself with the everyday
life Of the people. All of these pur-
poses Of the founders come up for
review on this historic date.

Back to 1916 Tariff.

Kansas City, Jan. 16.-"We must
go back to the tariff of 1916 for a
solution of our tariff problem" said
Vice President-elect Marshall here
to-day on his way to Arizona. "We've
got to get back to the time when the
people Of the country had equal op-
portunities; back to the time when
there was old-fashioned competition,
old-fashioneG rewards of comforta-
BILE living and tranquil old age for
labor.
eff I know Mr.. Wilson and old
fashioned Democracy they propose
to go back to first principles. We pro-
pose first to go back to a constitu-
tional tariff. The tariff has corrupt
ed this country more than anything
else. 1t has corrupted good men and
made bad men worse.
81 don't care how good a man is,
give him tariff favor at the ex-
pense OF his neighbor and you
weaken his moral fiber. In little
while he can see no wrong in buying

How should I get type at a dra-

How should you get it anywhere
