WANT MOB MEMBERS TRIED.
Spartanburg Grand Jury Ask Solici-
tor to Prosecute.

Spartanburg, Nov. 20.-Solicitor
Albert E. Hill is called upon, in a
presentment made to Judge DeVore
to-day by the Spartanburg county
grand jury, to prosecute members
of the mob who on the night OF
August IS last dynamited the coun-
ty Jail in an effort to lynch Will Fair,
a negro accused of assaulting white
woman. Four men are named by the
grand jury as members of the lynch
ing mob and bench warrants for their
arrest were issued this evening by
Judge DeVore.
After careful investigation into
the assault on the jail" the grand
Jury reports. I'VE find that certain
parties, utterly disregarding the
lives of our officers and the county
property, did make an assault on the
Jail with the intent of taking the
life of Will Fair. We present to the
Court w. R. Belcher, Jesse Wolfe,
Bob Wilson and Robert Ward, and
ask our solicitor to prosecute them. }"
Foreman w. G. Query, of the
grand jury, declined to disclose the
method of procedure followed in the
grand jury's Investigation, saying
that to make it public might inter-
fere with the apprehension Of other
alleged members of the mob, who are
being sought.
The grand jury's action is without
precedent here. Fair was not lynch
ed. During a battle, which ragged the
greater part of the night and in which
three men were shot, Sheriff w. J.
White and his deputies held the
men at bay and in the morning spirit
ed Fair out of the Jail and took him
to the State penitentiary at Columbia.
He was tried at a special term of
Court and acquitted, though his ac-
cuser, the young wife of a farmer.
swore positively that he had assault
ed her. Her story was believed by
the jury to be an hallucination due
to condition peculiar to her sex.

TRAINS HIT IN FOG.
Head-on Collision on Southern in
Barnwell County-Four Injured.

Columbia, Nov. 20.-Two tramps,
one probably fatally and the other
seriously, were injured, and two
white passengers sustained hurts
when Southern passenger trains Nos.
% and "a collided head-on in fog
at Barton, in Barnwell county, some
eighty miles south of Columbia, this
; morning at 329 o'clock. The engines
of both trains and express cars were
hurled from the track, which was
torn up for a distance of some yards
: T. A Lloyd and David Simmons,
said to be two tramps, were, it is
said, riding between the engine and
baggage car of No. %, the south
bound passenger, when the collision
took place. Lloyd was probably IA
tally injured, while Simmons suffered
a broken arm and other bruises. Two
white passengers, L. c. Tanning, of
Sally, had his ankle broken, and Mrs.
NJ F. Myers, of Sandy Springs, was
slightly injured by being thrown
against a seat.
None of the train crew was hurt
and only the engines and baggage
cars left the track, the remainder
of both trains sticking to the rails.
Superintendent Hudson was a pas
senger on No "a, coming to Colum-
hia, and he Immediately took charge
OF the wreck, transferring passen-
gers and clearing away the debris.
A wrecking train brought physicians
to the scene and the wounded were
cared for at once. The track was
cleared at noon and the Southern's
southeastern Limited, No 81, got
through on time.
No % runs from Columbia to Jack
sonville, and No. "a from Jackson
vile to Columbia, and were about on
time when they collided this morn
ing in Barnwell county. Both carried
combination baggage and mail cars,
colored and white day coaches and
Pullmans. The cause of the wreck
iss unknown, but it is said that a
thick fog enveloped both trains when
they crashed.

MAKE CHIC TRIMMING
PADDED DAISIES NOW GO WITH
Gs THE MOURNING HAT.
May Be Made at Home Just as Good
as Are Seen in the Millinery Inn
tations-Directions to #
be Followed. e.,

Padded daisies make an extraor-
dinarily chic trimming for the mourn
ing hat, and some of the date millinery
importations have shown them com
pletely surrounding the brims. The
petals are usually little over an inch
In length, and the centers are about
twice as large as the natural center of
the flower they are made to initiate.
From lusterless black crepe de chine
cut ovals of the, size and shape to
make daisy petal about quarter of
an inch wide and q little over an inch
long At both ends the ovals should
be shaped to points. just as the ma
tural petal of the daisy is pointed.
Two of these petals thus cut are laid
together, and seam is run about
them by machine, making one petal
from the two pieces. The bottom of
the petal is left open an eighth Of an
inch up, so that it may be turned in
side out and the seams concealed in
the inside. Then take match stick
and bit Of soft cotton and poke the
cotton into the little petal bag with
the end of the match stick. Make it
quite plump, and be sure that the cot
ton reaches clear to the point Of the
petal. Then sew the petal up at the
bottom. Make sufficient number Of
these, say about twelve. to go all
around the little padded center. This
center is made of circle of the crepe
de chine stuffed with cotton and then
pressed down so that it does not look
too ball-like. The edges Of the crepe
de chine circle are drawn down about
the tiny ball of cotton and fastened
with, a few stitches on the under side.
The petals are then stitched to the
under side of the center. Very little
cotton is used to pad the lower ends
Of the petals, as this would make the
center too bulky underneath when the
petals are stitched to it. Some Of
these daisies are arranged SO that
slightly smaller petals are placed over
and between the gaps left by the u
larger petals about the padded center.
This gives the effect Of a double row
OF petals, which is even prettier than
the single row. "A Georgette sailor

flowers lying nat on the short brim

Much More Effective Than Hours Of
Massaae and 10 No Drain
sf.& on the Purse.

II women only realized that the best
beautifieri is not to be bought on the
market, but is simply provided for by
nature, namely, smile, this would be
happy looking world. 1t Is really
true a smile is the least appreciated,
but most efficient Of beautifiers. The
reason is this !: When the muscles Of
the face are relaxed they sink. The
time spent in sleep brings complete
relaxation Of all the facial muscles for
period OF many hours. This down
pulling OF the muscles, which cannot
be prevented, very naturally needs
condensation. Now, If the face Is
drawn into. lines Of discomfort through
the daytime, naturally wrinkles will
follow in very little time.
On the other hand, all the smiling
you can do in the daytime will not
make lines, because the drawing up Of
the muscles in the day is Offset by
their sinking at night. One balances
the other in way which keeps the
face from falling into either the up
ward curved lines of mirth or the
downward running lines of discomfort.
Those women who spend hours in
massage should try this simple home
remedy for lines. 1t is much less ex-
pensive and much less troublesome
than having professional rub your
face for you. s4g E t:.$5
