ASK PARDON FOR NJ A. CARLISLE.
President Wilson May Commute I'm
prisOnment to Newberry Jail.

Washington, July Ex-senator Till
man and Representative Aiken and
Ragsdale, of the South Carolina dele
CATION, went to the White House to-
day and made a strong appeal to
President Wilson to pardon NJ A.
Carlisle, the Newberry banker, who
is under sentence to serve a term in
the penitentiary The president some
weeks ago commuted the sentence
from five years to one year and one
day. He told the South Carolina
delegation today that if he found
he had the legal power to do so he
would further commute the sentence
to Imprisonment in the Newberry Jail.
TIE law is now being examined by
experts to see if the president can do
this.

To Put Carlisle in Newberry Jail.

Washington, July 25.-As a result
of constant efforts on the part of Sen
ator Tillman, Representatives Aiken
and other members of the South Car

Wilson today signed an order to the
proper authorities for Milton A Car
Isle, the Newberry banker, who was
some time ago convicted of misman-
agement of national bank funds, to be
confined for tle prcze.- = t.?e NcT-

prlSOnmenI.
Recently stories were sent out to
the effect that Carlisle's sentence had
been again commuted, but these
we're incorrect, as learned here to-
day, after the South Carolina con-
gressmen had seen President Wilson
and from what the pardon attorney
of the department of justice said
concerning the matter. In word,
the case stands this way: Carlisle IS
under sentence of year and day
in the federal prison at Atlanta, but
in accordance with President Will
sons promise and order today he
will, at least for the present, be
confined in the Newberry county jail
and will not be sent to Atlanta. What
further action may be taken by the
president looking to more cutting
down of the sentence is matter
that has not yet been announced.

DISEASELESS WORLD
WITHIN so YEARS

EDMONTON, (Alta.) March IL.
Francis J. Lewis of the
department of biology at the Uni
versity of Alberta in Edmonton, said
in the course of a public address
here yesterday that with the know
ledge already possessed by science
it should be possible to remove
every form of epidemic from the
world within so years. He added
that this conclusion also fits the
economic world, saying its applica-
ton to the strife between capital
and labor would remove all fric-
ton before the close of 1860.
Referring to the question of dis
ease, the speaker said there is none
known to nature, except amongst
the human race, which means either
determination or readjustment The
former results in the case OF man;
but with nature it is otherwise, as

Delving into the subject of or
ganic evidences of evolution, he
showed the process which is at
work in the physical world, declar-
ing that the struggle for existence
is confined solely to the members
of their class. He laid special stress
upon the statement that the diff
erent classes are not in competition
with each other. The remedy, he
said, is the intelligent application Of
economic laws.
Professor Lewis was emphatic il

that man has existed on the earth
only two or three thousand years

man, in very primitive condition

NEW TUNNEL TO
BE RUN AT NELSON
From Wednesdays Daily

[ w ChhCs0o
George P. Harrington, general
manager of the Nelson Mining Com
pany, operating in the Bradshaw
mountains, stated yesterday that an
other big contract had been decid-
ed upon in running a new tunnel to
further explore that mineral prr.'o-
sition, and which will entail the
outlaying of a large sum.
This decision was sanctioned by
eastern stockholders, from the
splendid results accomplished in the
initial development in tunnel work.
A point about 1000 feet to the
south of the original tunnel and from
200 to $50 feet below has been Sc
1ected. and work will commence i'm
mediately.
This exploration will give a YER
teal depth of about 500 feet below
the face of the upper tunnel, and
about 1000 fet under the shaft where
the original Development was per-
formed on the group, from which
the large operations are due at the
present time in the splendid posi-
bilities of the property. From the
anex Of the mountain it will be over
1880 feet.
Speaking of development in tho
tunnel, Mr. Harrington states that
in the face 900 feet distant, the ore
body continues strong and runs iron
four feet to four and one-half fee
in width. Work goes ahead at thi:
point and the tunnel will be driver
1000 feet as contracted. He feel:
very much elated over the out
look. and states the outcrop on th'
Nelson holdings is clearly defined
for 5000 feet, and extends to othe
properties an additional $500 feet
A large ore dump is accumulatin,
from the upper tunnel, and the ques
ton OF treating the yield is unde
consideration by the eastern stock
holders. The general grade OF tn
ore is milling, but considerable o
the yield will warrant shipping.
