Charged with Misusing Mails.

Spartanburg, Oct. 9.-John b
Atkinson, United States commission
er, Monday heard evidence in the
case against L. NJ Charles, who is
alleged to have musused the mails
by sending worthless checks to IL
quor houses. There are five or six
counts against the defendant. Mr..
Atkinson has reserved his decision.
1t seems that Charles, while in
Union, sent through the mails worth
less checks to various liquor houses
throughout the country securing
whiskey for them. He was prose
cuted in Greenville during last April
on similar allegations, was convicted
and sentenced to one year in the
penitentiary. He appealed to the
United States Supreme court. The
last charges made against him are
similar to these for which he was
convicted.

WEEDS IN SHROUD SHE MADE.
Miss Sophie NJ. koerth Was Operated

Dressed in the gown which she
made four years ago, in preparation
for her funeral. Miss Sophie NJ. ko-
erth, 1928 McHenry street, was mar

Miss Koerth was once a sufferer
from internal trouble and underwent
nine operations at different times.
Last May, after the last and most
vital of the operations was performed,
Miss Koerth felt that she was cured.
Since then she has felt not the slight
est trace of pain.
Her case is regarded as remarkable
by physicians at the hospitals in
which she has been a patient, many
of them having declared that she was
ncurable.-Baltimor Sun.

TILIMAN'S "ALLEGORICAL COW.
Illustrated Article in Congressional
Record Causes Furry.

Washington, Oct. S.-Senator Till
mans "allegorical COW sketched
eighteen years ago to accompany an
attack by the South Carolina Senator
upOn Wall street and the money
rover" illustrated the same article
in to-day's Congressional Record.
One view shows the COW as an elong-
ated animal, symbolic of the nation
al resources feeding on the farms OF
the South and West, while her golden
milk is being drawn in New York and
New England. Then the COW is pic
tured turned around, but the Su-
rreme Court is choking her as she
attempts to feed on the income tax.
Southern farmers are getting no
milk.
Unanimous consent for inserting
the article with Illustrations in the
Record was obtained by Senator Till
man. who said he made the request
because so much that was mere sur
mise and prophecy then has come
true" He added that he rejoiced
that the country no longer could be
"bamboozled" and that under DEM
ocratic administration legislation was
being enacted which would prevent
the robbery that had gone on in the
past.
The appearance Of the cartoon in
the Record created a furry at the
Capitol. Nobody remembered when
such thing had happened before.

Curious Hotel Customs.

In an Edinburg hotel the bar coun-
ter contains a slot, into which each
visitor who is heard to swear must
drop a penny, and notice to that
effect is displayed. These pennies
are at intervals collected and sent to
aid the funds of one of the local in
stitutions.
A curious custom prevails at an
hotel in Dumfries. In one of the
public rooms there is an armchair
which was often occupied by Robert
Burns, the Scottish national poet.
Any one who enters the room and
seats himself in this chair is eX-
pected to sand treat to all pres
ent. when the memory of the bard is
drunk.
At Aberdeen, in a temperance ho-
tel, each visitor, on signing his name
in the hotel book, il desired also to
affix his signature to a card testify
ing that he is teetOtalier ana Will
not bring any intoxicants into the
hotel. In a Glasgow hotel it is the
custom weekly on Sundays, to go
round the various rooms and take a
subscription on behalf of one of the
city charities. In another Glasgo"
hotel the proprietor, religiously IN
clined, holds divine service each Sum
day at noon. to which all the boar1-
ers are invited. At several of the
large hotels in the north of Scotland
the guests are beguiled from their
slumbers each day by the playing
of the bagpipes, while in an hotel
in Inverness a posthorn is employed
for the same purpose.-Tit-Bits

THE HARBOR OF REFUGE.
Cape Lookout and It's Great Sea Wall
to Cost $5,OOO,OOO.

off Cape Lookout, in North Caro-
lima, in three or four years, there will
be the greatest harbor of refuge in
the world" remarked F. B. Arundel!
of Raleigh, at the Raleigh. Work
has been started on the great sea
wall, for which congress has appro-
priated 100000 for preliminary
work. This wall, when finished, will
be 5000 feet long, more than mile
and a half, and 45 feet high, which,
it is estimated. is two and One-half
feet above high water at all times;
20 feet wide at the top, and when
completed will cost more than So
600, 0,0G0. That part Of the South At
lantic coast is perhaps the toughest
On the Atlantic. 1t is to avoid the
dangers that so often bring death
and disaster to ships off Cape Hat
teras that the Cape Lookout harbor
was projected. The sea wall is to
be built of cement and granite, and
the building estimates show that l.
100000 tons of granite will be used
in the construction.
while planned primarily for a
harbor of refuge, this great work will
mean that Cape Lookout will be one
tions on the Atlantic coast, and per-
haps in the world. The railroads al
ready are buying ground upon which
to build tracks over which to run
their cars of coal for supplying the
expected fleets of vessels that will put
into the harbor "-Washington Post.

EXPLOSION DAMAGE $4,000.
Other Effects of Accident at Hamp-
ton County Lumber Mill.

Hampton, Oct. 1.-THE explosion
of large boiler at the lumber manu-
featuring establishment, owned and
operated by Lightsey Brothers, at
Mileys, about seven miles from Hamp-
ton, yesterday, which resulted in the
death of one negro workman and the
injury of several other laborers, caus-
cd a loss which is conservatively es-
timated at $4,000. The damage
resulting by reason of delay in opera
ton of the big plant will be consld-
cradle. There is thought to be insur-
ance to cover the loss.
Pieces of the boiler we're found in
all directions within a radius of one
half mile of the plant. One negro
fireman was caught bodily up and
thrown through the air for distance
of about 100 feet. A large piece OF
wood, which came out OF the furnace
under one Of the large boilers, was
blown 200 feet through one Of the
front windows of the office building
and commissary, overturning large
can of lard and literally strewing lard
over the whole rear portion Of the
store and Office.
The negro, Frank Patterson, who
was killed, was about so feet from
the boiler. He was driving mule to
a cart. His body was torn to pieces
and the mule was killed.
The dome to the boiler was found
to have been blown two hundred
yards through two houses and shed.
1t knocked the top off an automobile,
broke the wind shield into pieces and
the complete dome sat itself down in
the seat of the auto, necessitating its
removal before Mr. Henry Lightsey
could use his machine.
An inquest was held at Miley's yes
terday and the testimony, it is said,
showed that no blame os account of
negligence or otherwise could attach
to the owners
