BIG INCREASE In PAY
FOR STATE MiLITIAMEN

Following a conference last
week in Washington, announce
ment was made Saturday through
the daily newspapers that the
militia of this State will re-
ceive yearly an additional $780,
600 for services rendered the Fed
eral government.
According to information given
out, the militia pay bill now be-
fore Congress provides an am
nual appropriation OF $S, 600. 600
to be used tor the peace training
Of the organized militia, AS
originally drawn, the bill pro-
vided that this sum be distri6-
uted according to State and Ter
rltorial appropriations. Had the
bill been approved containing
this clause. South Carolna-with
the small! appropriation of $12,-
600 would have received but a
meager amount, as New York
donates $3,000,000 for its mill
tiamen, and other northern and
western States also provide large
amounts. Half to three quar-
ters of this Federal pay appro-
priation would have been utilized
in the compensation of the mill
tiamen in these States.
Under the provisions of the
bill-as i: will pass, having been
approved by the convention of
adjutants general and war de-
partment-the militiamen will
agree to serve in reserve as in
the regular army. The $130, 600
will be home service lay. Train
ing at home the enlisted militia
men will receive from the Fed
eral government 20 per cent of
the regular pay of the regular
army, provided they attend drills.
This means that each enlisted
man will receive $36 for 45 drills,
or 80 cents per drill of an hour
and half.
The commissioned officers will
receive 20 per cent of army of
ticers' pay for their service per
drill, providing they attend 20
drills per year. The staff will
receive 5 per cent of army pay,
excepting regimental adjutants,
who will get the 20 per cent.
The %obth Carolina National
Guard now receives an average
of SIS, 000 to $50, 600 a year from
the Federal government.

Attacked on Highway.

Fort Mill friends of Mr.. j. A.
Shannon, of Sharon, who was
visitor recently at the home of
his brother in-law, the Rev.
w. A. Hafner, will read with
interest Of his narrow escape
from a serious injury at the
hands OF an unkno wn negro who
attacked him on the public high
way near Lockhart on Sunday
alto rnoon, January IL. Mr..
Shannon had been to visit the
family of Mrs. Wade Osborne at
Lockhart and was returning
home IL his buggy, when an
unknown negro approached from
the roadside and began cursing
him. Mr.. Shannon jumped from
the buggy and, having no
weapon with which to defend
himself, picked up some rocks
aud Ia. eW them at the negro,
who continued TO advance.
VI ci'tiStiiHS lObS hiiltC Mr.
Shannon was able to keep the
negro back far enough to pre-
vent himself from getting cut.
though his clothing was badly
slashed. He finally succeeded
IN striking the negro a blow
between the eyes with the butt
end Uf his whip, which so stunned
the negro that he was unable to
advance again. the negro was
carried off by another negro who
came upon the scene about this
time. Mr.. Shannon had never
seen his assailant before and
could not give the officers his
name.
Mr.. Shannon's assailant was
said to have been Sam Thomp-
son, a tenant on a plantation in
the vicinity Of Locknart, and his
attacking Mr.. Shannon was
thought to have been due 10 the
negro's indulgence in Cocaine or
whiskey. He had not at last re-
ports been apprehended.

SCHOOL NOTES.
By Supt. j. =. Coats.

The enrolment of the Fort
Mill schools has reached about
2S0, with Al in the high school.
This is the largest enrolment
in the history of the institution.
both in the grammar school and
in the high school. This means
great responsibility for the
trustees, \. teachers and parents.
The enrolment of the first
grade alone is S2. Of necessity,
this grade is divided into two
sections. During the session,
beginners have been allowed 10
start at any time they saw fit.
This caused several divisions in
the work OF this grade, one
group Il few weeks behind
another, etc. The board of
trustees has been compelled to
pass the following regulation:
no pupil who cannot be put in a
grade or class already formed,
can enter school after the month
of January. This is no hard
ship for anyone. A beginner
who would start after this time
would have to do the work over
next year, for no pupil will be
able to do a years work in four
months. Besides this, the
teacher needs all of her time to
try to get her regular pupils
ready for the next higher grade.
This regulation has nothing to
DO with new pupils who may
come from other schools. The
purpose of the passing of the
regulation was to keep from
having to form any more new
classes. Ii the pupil can be put
in a class already formed, the
school will be glad to have him
at any time.
The work of planting thirty
two nice trees is no little job.
Last week MIR. Carothers and
the Boy Scouts planted thirty-two
fine trees upon the school
grounds. We wish to heartily
thank these public spirited per
sons for this work. 1t is the
beginning of a work that is
needed as much as any in Fort
Mill. We have nice school
building, but the grounds are in
great need Of improvement. This
is the property of every person
In town. Then let us try to
make 1t the most abrasive place
III town.

penses are second, about $11, 900.
The poor will receive about
Sc. 500, including tensions for
veterans.
The county board of COM
mlssionerS estimates that the
snm of $58.734 63 will be re-
quired to pay the ordinary ex-
penses Of the county for the
year commencing January l,
1914, and Of this amount SIS, 300
will be raised from the fines of
magistrates and the court of
sessions, and the balance. $52,- :
S04. 63. must come from taxation.

May Increase Parcels Weight.

Recent experiments conducted
by the Fostoffice Department
with the aim of increasing the
weight limit of the parcels post
have proved so successful that
parcels weighing 100 pounds
soon may be shipped by mail.
The present weight limit of par
GELS is so pounds.
THE 100 pound weight limit
has no terrors for me-" said the
postmaster general. He ex-
pressed belief that 600, 1000, 600
parcels would be transported
through the mails during the
year beginning July l next with
a revenue of approximately 10
cents each.

Suggests r call of Petition.

Editor Times:
In talking with different citi-
zens about the proposed bond
issue for waterworks, | have
heard the idea advanced num-
Der OF times, that the petition
would be more freely signed if
the tax payers knew that who
ever handled the contract and
paid out the money would get
value received for every dollar
spent. Up to the present only a
few names have been signed to
it, and don't you think it would
be d good idea to recall the
petition and amend it by insert
Ing the names of three well
known citizens to act as a COM
mission without pay to have
cnarge of the work?
| would like to suggest the
names of l.. j. Massey, w. B.
Ardrey and l.. A. Harris for this
commission. am sure that the
towns interests would be well
looked after.by these three hard
headed business men.

THE CATAWBAS.
Yorkvillc Enquirer.

There is ever a peculiar in
terest attaching to the Indian.
especially among those who see
him only occasionally and no
matter what may be the faults
of the Catawbas, there is a
friendly sentiment for him
throughout the whole county.
Ii was because Of this that the
reporter took advantage of an
opportunity last Wednesday to
have short talk with Chief
ID. A. Harris, who was in York
vile to appear before the legis-
lative delegation in behalf of his
tribe.
Harris is a man Of rather heavy
build, with dark, straight hair
dark eyes and all the other dis
tinctive features that make the
Indian. He is about 40 years of
age, is quite intelligent and
whatever his knowledge Of his
native dialect, speaks very good
English. He was inclined to ne
friendly aud Sociable ana did not
hesitate to answer any q iestion
the reporter SAW proper TO ask.
No, | do not get to Yorkvilll
often, he said. 1t is my first
vlsltjnere in 4 long time. like
to come whenever the oppor-
tunity presents; but my duties
on the reservation require most
OF my time and attention, and |
seldom leave there except WREN
| have pr, ssing business OH be-
malt OF the tribe away"
Chlel Harris said that there
are about 125 Indians. including
65 children, ON the reservation;
but not nearly all Of them are of
pure blood. Some white men
have married Indian women
and some Indians have married
white women. He claims that
his own blood is unmiXed.
Our reServat on is quite
small, said Harris, there being
only about 600 acres Of il, and a
part OF it is too rough and hilly
to be cultivated. We have some
good bottom lands; but the river
often gets over the crops in the
bottoms and destroys every
thing. This year we made only
about 80 bales of cotton and
very little corn"
lt IS generally known, no
doubt, that the Indians have
their own civi! government, and
are not subject to the laws of
the State exsspt as to matters
between them and citizens of
the State, or upon appeal to the
State authorities. They hold their
lands in common, and the chief.
to all intents and purposes, is a
petty king who can do pretty
much as he will, in accordance
with pretty we'll established
laws of the tribe. He settles
little differences among indi-
vidual members of the tribe, and
represents the tribe in all mat
tters OF community interest or
Importance.
About 80 Of our children are
In school, said Harris, and
they are not only anxious to go,
but eagear to learn and are doing
well. We have fairly good
school house and we also have a
church OF our own. Most of us
are Mormons. UNCONVENTIONAL
missionaries have done and are
still doing more or less work
amongst US; but" and he con-

The question of sgranting bail
to Harry X Thaw twill not be

a rescril t filed Friday with the

federal court Judge Aldrich said
there would be no hearing on
the matter of bail until the final

His name is on the Confederate
monument in Fort Mill, and

fact.

(By Associated Press.)

Washington, April 4.-The confir-
nation of Winthrop M. Daniels late
yesterday afternoon as member Of /
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
after a bitter three-days' fight in the
Senate, was followed today by the re-
velation Of the fact that during the |
fight Daniels had urged President Will |
son to withdraw his name. The Pres |
ident refused.
Daniels is personal friend o. Pres
ident Wilson. Many senators held
that Danisls' views on railroad valua-
tions are not sound. The mississippi
senators split on the final vote for
Senator Williams voting to sustain the
President and Senator vsrdaman vot-
ing against the confirmafion.
Nine members of the Senate. headed
by Senator La Toilette. declared on
the floor during the executive session

of the Senate in the future and to dis
cuss publicly legislation not affecting

rule are Bristow, Clmmins, Clapp. Ken
yin Norris, Jones, Gronna and Poin-
dexter. All are Republicans except

} confirmation carried by vote of thir'
ty-six to twenty-seven.

ment, Senator La Toilette said 81
told the Senate considered 1t mis-
take to have considered the nomina

Senator Clapp said that the exec
utive sessions, except to consider mat
; ters of great public danger, were Ger
tain to be abolished before long.
"In a great crisis there would be NJ
trouble in keeping the proceedings sc
] cret," he added, "but in matters sucl
as nominations the public is entities

will know if some of us have our wa.
