BLOWN THROUGH GINHOUSE.
Boiler and Engine Hurled From
Place by Explosion.

Trenton, March 15.-The boiler
at the ginnery of Richard Ripley, To-
Gated about four miles from this
place, exploded Friday afternoon,
killing a negro woman and seriously
iujuring two, negro men. Mr.. Rip
ley and his brother narrowly escap-

ing that the water in the boiler was
low, steamed it up and then attempt
ed to pump cold water into it, caus-
ing the explosion. Both the engine
and boiler were blown through the
ginhouse, entering at one end, pass

Anderson Plant Changes Hands.

Anderson, March 13.-The proper
ties of the Anderson Water, Light
and Power company, consisting of the
water and light systems of the city
and the Portman Shoals power plant
on Seneca river, developing $500
electric horse power, have been ac-
uuired by the Southern Power COM
pany, more than s1,000,OOO being
involved in the deal.
The Anderson Water, Light and
Power company is capitalized at
100000 and has bonds outstanding
amounting to about 100000 addi-
tional. 1t is said that the purchasers
paid $3.50 for every 500 of stock.
The sale of the local company has
been talked of in business circles for
several days and while it is known
positively that the deal has been
made, no word Of confirmation can
be secured from the officers. Presl-
dent Orr says he has no statement
to make and Secretary Chapman says
that no stock has been transferred on
the books of the company recently.
During last summer G. Elmer
Smith, of York, Pa, and Elliott G.
Stephenson, of Detroit, bought up
nearly all the stock of the company,
leaving only one large stockholder,
w. S. Lee of the Southern Power
company. Later Smith and Ste
phenson transferred their stock TO
the Georgia Railway and Power com
paay of Atlanta, that company there
by securing control of the local COM
pany. The deal that has been con-
summated now is the purchase of the
stock originally held by Smith and
Stephenson by the Southern Power
company. The Southern Power COM
pany is now said to hold practically
every share of stock of the company.
The local company, in addition 70
furnishing water and lights for this
city, also lights Abbeville and Green
wood and furnishes power to the
Greenville, Spartanburg & Anderson
railway and to many cotton mills in
this section of the State.
This company holds lease of and
operates the Savannah River Power
company, which is owned by the
Georgia Railway & Power company.
The Savannah company develops g.
500 electric horse power.

$4,000 OR 5000 DAYS.
Sentence of Joe Hogan, Alleged
Sumter Blind Tiger.

Sumter, March 14.-What is prob
able the greatest fine or number Of
days Imprisonment imposed by any
municipal officer in this State was
the sentence imposed by Recorder
Lee here yesterday on Joe Hogan.
when he pleaded guilty to the charges
in thirty warrants, each containing
three counts, for violations of the
city ordinance against the sale, stor-
ing and keeping of alcoholic liquors.
The sentence was $50 of thirty days
on each of the ninety counts, making
a total of $4,000 or 2,700 days.
Hogan had already pleaded guilty
in one case and been tried on three
other warrants by juries and was
found guilty each time. The totals
of his fines and time are $4,000 or
5000 days. Hogan has appealed in
each case on the ground that the city
ordinance is defective.

Desperation Cause of Stealing.

Atlanta, March 13.-Declaring
that she was forced to steal out Of
sheer desperation, and that though
she was garbed in silk and velvet
dress of the latest fashion, she act
ually did not have a nickel to buy
something to eat with, Edna john
son, an unusually pretty girl, who
says she comes from Kansas City,
broke down in police court yesterday
afternoon and pleaded guilty to shop
lifting charge. After spending a
sleepless night in a cell at police
headquarters, she was in hyster'-
cal condition and wept pitifully. She
said that she was penniless and
starving and that unable to obtain
work, she preferred theft to the
only other alternative. Sentence
has been suspended in her case, and
the police are making an effort to
get in communication with her FAM
lily. The girl shows every evidence
of education and refinement.

Free Advice.

The late James B. Hammond, of
typewriter fame, had a singularly
generous nature-as was evidenced,
among other things, by his distribu-
tion of $4,000 bright new Lincoln
pennies from his motor car among
the children of New York.
Mr.. Hammond hated meanness.
Once, at club, he heard a man
meanly asking a doctor for free ad-
vice on all sorts of medical topics.
And now, doctor,' this individual
finally said, suppose man got frost
bitten-how would you treat him.
"Oh," broke in Mr.. Hammond I'M
patiently, rub him with man who's
had a sunstroke.

BOND OF $4,000 DEMANDED.
Joe Hogan in Jail for Failure to Pay
Fine.

Sumter, March 16.-Further de-
velopments were made in the Joe Ho-
gan case yesterday when he was re-
arrested and recommitted to jail on
failure to pay a fine in one case N
which he had plead guilty and to put
up a valid bond pending the appeal
in other cases. His bond was fixed
at $4,000 by the Recorder, in &C
cordance with law, his fine being So
600, and he was unable to put up this
bond
Hogan's attorney and the city are
at present contending as to whether
the appeal was served in the time al
lotted, the former claiming time
limit of five days, while the latter
alleges that all appeals must be made
within twenty-four after conviction:
the time customarily allowed in the
city court for the making of appeals.
This is another question which will
probably go to the higher court when
the appeal comes up. The main
ground of appeals is that the ordl-
nance is invalid as to selling liquor,
but should the appeal be sustained on
this ground, the two counts of "stor-
ing and keeping in possession" will
still hold. Hogan's attorney promises
further developments in the case in
the next few days.

FIRST HAIRCUT IN IS YEARS.
Florida Democrat Submits to Ampu-

Seated in a bandstand in the pub

presence of scores of the townfol!1

Hill, an aged resident of Orlando,
yesterday had his first haircut in 16
years.
During the 1896 campaign Hill
made a pledge to allow his locks to
go untrimmed until Democrat be-
came president of the United States.
Hill, in a speech, declared that the
pleasure of parting with his supera-
bundan2e of hair was not more wei
come than the assurance that Dem
ocrat at last had taken up his resi-
dence in the White House.

BOYS Face Trial.

Hillsboro, N. c., March 13.-
Twelve jurors were selected and the
taking of testimony was begun here
today in the trial of the four Uni
versity of North Carolina sophomores
charged with manslaughter in con-
nection with the death of Isaac Will
lam Rand, a freshman of the institu-
ton, who met death while being
hazed. The students on trial are
Ralph w. Oldham, Raleigh; Aubrey
C. Hatch, Mount Olive; William L..
Merriman and Arthur H. Stryon,
Wilmington.
Attempts by counsel for the prose-
cution and attorneys for the defend
ants to reach an agreement by which
they would bring in a special verdict
in the case failed today after two
hours conference.
Four witnesses were introduced
for the State before court was ad.
journed for the day. They told of
the defendants coming to the room
occupied by Rand at the university
and taking him to the athletic field
where he was forced to sing and
dance
Because of the legal precedent in
volved in the case many prominent
lawyers from throughout the State
were on hand. The defendants are
represented by a brilliant array of
counsel, while Solicitor S. NJ. Cattle
also is aided by leading members OF
the bar in this State.
Young Rand met his death as the
result of being hazed by upper class
men September 13, last. According
to his roomate, Robert Bellons, who
also was hazed, Rand was dancing on
the head of a barrel when it toppled
over. In falling Rand's neck struck
the ragged edge of broken bottle,
severing the artery. He died within
nalf an hour.

Patronage VS.. Patriotism.

Congressman Byrnes has earned
the gratitude of his constituents IN
this town. for his successful work in
securing for them post office and
custom house building. Last year he
got congress to appropriate twenty
five thousand dollars for the deepen
ing of Archer's Creek, and this year
the rivers and harbors bill through
his efforts carries an item calling for
the survey of the Savannah-Beaufoit
inland route with view to deepen
ing it. 1t is said that he has been
equally diligent in developing the up
per counties which cast much lar
ger primary vote. Each appropri-
alton he has got has been for real
and substantial benefit to the tax
payers, and we do not believe that
any reasonable critic would claim
that they are pork barrel grabs.
The hold that Congressman Byrnes
has on his district is not based, how
ever, on his ability to- get US appro-
priations. The district was enthusi
astic about him before he had made
an effort along this line. Neither is
it bottomed altogether on his pleasing
personality and gift as a campaign
debater, in which he has few equals
in this State. In our opinion it
springs from a general belief in his
honesty of purpose to serve the coun-
try in a large way, and confidence in
his good judgement.
The force with which he supports
the measures advocated in the Demo-
cratic platform and President Will
sons Interpretation of them, will be
the real measure of the value of his
service to the country. The tenden-
cy is going to be to judge him for
the recommendations for appoint
ments he will make. In the nature
of things he will disappoint more in
dividuals than he will please by his
recommendations, for there will be
many disappointed applicants to
each successful one.
The whole South is now on trial.
After many years our leaders are
at the helm of national affairs. Be-
hind them are their constituents,
and unless they, and that means each
of us, forgets patronage and cult
Yates patriotism the administration
may be wrecked.
We do not know whether our con-
gressman is going to have our friends
appointed and We are not going to
judge him by what he does along this
line, but by his vote and his influence
on important legislative measures.
With large majority of his constit-
uents we snare confidence in his po-
litical integrity.-Beaufort Gazette.

BURGLARS MAKE RICH HAUL.
Get More Than $25O.OOO in Loot
From Pawn Shop.

New 1Olh, MdlCu io.-IAL SooI
side burglary, perpetrated by clever
cracksmen some time today, netted
the thieves the largest haul obtained
in New York city in many years.
Martin Simons & Sons, pawn brokers
in Hester street were the victims,
and the property stolen includes
100000 worth of jewelry, diamonds
and other precious stones, and $780,
600 worth of negotiable securities.
The thieves gained acces to the
pawn brokers' richly stored vaults by
means of tunnel from an abutting
building on a neighboring street.
They made a clean getaway with
their valuable loot.
The police are of the opinion that
six cracksmen were employed on the
job and that the tunneling required
all of last night and the greater part
of Sunday morning. 1t is their be-
lief that the actual robbery took
place this afternoon, while hundreds
of persons were passing along the
street in front of the pawn shop.
The police found that the tunnel
was begun in the cellar of a house
in Eldridge street, directly adjoining
Simon's place. 1t was driven through
the wall of the Eldridge street house
and into a wood bin in the cellar of
the Simon's store. There, leading up
into the pawn brokers' shop, is a
fight of stairs. They are wired for
a burglar alarm, however, and the
thieves avoided them and sawed away
the overhead flooring at spot direct
ly in front of the treasure vault. The
vault, which stands II feet high and
is built into the wall, was entered by
chopping away the masonry.
Later $4,000 of the negotiable
securities were found scattered on
the floor of the vault, but about $50
600 were missing, the robbers evil
dently having been afraid to take
them owing to the risk of detection
in their disposal.
Another thing that seemed to point
to the up-to-date business acumen Of
the looters was that they left behind
them in the litter about the vault
three pairs of gloves. The police are
of the opinion that the cracksmen
wore gloves in robbing the vault, re-
alizing the extent to which the finger
print bureau of the police department.
is capable of going into detecting
crooks who leave impressions of their
fingers at the scenes of their crimes.
The burglars were we'll prepared
for their task. In the pawn shop
they left ell the paraphernalia they
had used in preaching the wall, cut
ting through the floor and hammer
ing their way through the brick ma
sonry of the vault.
When Simons and his son reached
the pawn shop and made hasty in
ventory they declared the loot taken
easily was worth s250,0OO and that
probably it's value would exceed that
figure.
