we have a right to-we are all new

Why should we not stand together

a move which was known to have
been done in good faith. even though
it was not quite the best way to

Dr. Harms commenced his lecture
by telling his audience that the men
OF the present day were too far re-
moved from childhood, they were Sc
paratcd from the ideals and ambitions
Of childhood, they were too far re-
moved from their children and did not
take sufficient interest in those things
that interested their children. He
told Of how one could find enjoyment
in the reading of the old "GOosie"
rhymes which were so dear to childish
hearts. He told how one of his friends
had been forever freed from pes
smism by reading one of the little
jingleS and how the same treatment
would cure others of the blues.
He then went on to show how the
little jingle about The House That
Jack Built was expanded and ap-
piled it to the building of ones char
actcr. Good material must be used
the timberS must be solid, they must
be straight and square, he said. The
tools must be purpose, a plan and
perseverance. The speaker quoted
from many authors and brought into
his talk many interesting, anecdotes
and incidents, throughout a wide
range of subjects, applying them to
his points in an apt and interesting
manner.
DIR. Harms made deep impression
on his audience by his address, which
no doubt will be the means Of much
future thought in the minds Of those
| who heard him, as there was much
10 think about in what he said. If
he ever comes to Sumter again he will
meet with an extremely favorable re-
ception, SO heartily was his audience
pleased with him Sunday afternoon.

lower abdomen, was carried to a hos
pital in Columbia. Edwards was shot
in the left breast, the ball barely
missing the heart and lodging itself in
the body, the extent Of injuries can
not be determined tonight
The shooting was the result of a
quarrel between Strothers and Ed
wards who claimed that Strothers had
knife in his hand when he fired the
first shot Fifteen or more shots were
fired. Edwards Immediately after the
shooting made his way across a back
street followed by the two officers.
When he was told to throw up his
hands he drew pistol from his pocket
and fired directly at the officers who
returned the fire. Not until the pistol
was empty did he cease to shoot. Ed
wards was brought to Jail, where his
wounds were dressed by DR.. C. Frank
Roberts.

ANTITRUST LEGISLATION,

Washinton, April 11.-Anti-trust
legislation is to engage the attention
Of the Democratic majority in con-
gress early in the regular session if
not during the session which is now
wrestling with the tariff bill. Several
bills amending the Sherman law are
in contemplation and one, already in
troduced by Representative Baker Of
California, has been referred to the
judiciary committee
The Baker bill would specifically
define the law and public policy of
the government with respect to COM
binations.
Combinations in restraint of trade
would be defined as all arrangements,
without exception, limitation or quail
itication, between two or more persons
which in any way or to any extent
limit competition or the freedom to
compete in trade or which create the
dangerous probability that the to-
tality of national trade shall be de-
creased for private profit" Such COM
bination in which unlawful means are
used to further the purpose Of combi-
nation would be classed as conspiracy.

There was a large audience Of men

audience for the fifty minutes that he
spoke.
The title Of DR.. Harms talk was
most unique, The House That Jack
Built and many in his audience were
anxious to see how he would expand

81 knew that you had fine list of
prizes and have intended for a week
to get in and try to win the auto

be so easy to get votes. 1 have had
several of my friends saving ballots
for a few days and thought l could
make a good race that way, but
find that it Is much easier to get votes
on subscriptions that it is to get a
much smaller number by clipping the
ballots"
Others have had the same eXpe-
rience. 1t is not difficult to get votes
/ in this contest, and it will not be diff
fcult to win. All it takes is conf
dence and enthusiasm, and each be-
gets the other.
Subscription votes count so much

strength of contestants by so much
greater reaps. that the contest does

Subscription Ballot Offer is the real
beginning of the race.
During the week that this offer is
on, the first subscription turned in by
or for any contestant will be credited
with 1000 extra votes, in addition to
the regular scale. The offer applies
equally to subscriptions Of any sched-
uled length, from 75c subscription
to SIS one, and as we'll for new
nominees as for those whose names
appeared in the paper today's list. 1t
is also retroactive; that is, it applies
to those few candidates who had al
ready turned in a subscription before
the Subscription Ballot Offer was an
nounced.
While this offer is on is the proper
time to enter the contest. After it
closes, on April 10, the 10000 extra
votes will not be offered Consequently
those who come in later will find
themselves under n handicap that it
will be hard to overcome. Ten thous-

at. A much smaller number than that

 SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. S.-Interest in tOmorroW's 2G-round return bout be- tween Bob McAllister of the Olympic club and Sailor PetrosIIy the rough and tumble middleWeight boils down to one question: Has McAlIister got the punch?
 A month ago the men fought 20 rounds to a draw, the first long dis tance fight McAllister ever travelled and the referees decision is still subject to argument. The weight of the odds. however, is against the official It is ten to seven on McAllister who was quoted last night at ten to six which are the odds tonight. The same ref cree will rule
 puzzling thing about McAllister is that as an amateur he was rated as a knockerout. As a professional he has retained his speed and cleverness and proved his courage under punishment but the punch seems to have deserted him. After the last fight it was gener- ally agreed unless he shows more pun ishing power. nothing can recommend him for serious consideration Give him the punch and he would be the most dangerous middleweight in sight

Latest advlces to the state department to Consul Can ada were not regarded at the con suIate as altering materially the pre- Vious instructions, and most of the transportation provided will continue to be second class or steerage.
