MIR. ELLISON IS OUT 500.
Former OCOneean Victim of Careless
Friend and a Stranger.

The following, taken from the
Jasper, Ala, Mountain Eagle, will be
OF interest to many in Oconee, the
victim, T.. G.. Ellison, being a former
Oconeean, a son of Capt. A. II. Eli
son, who lives between Walha,!a and
Seneca, and a brother of C. II. Eli
son, of Seneca:
Man i'm OvcrallS Took Letter.
A veritable Happy Hooligan stunt
was pulled off by two Townley gem
tlemen about two weeks ago, the
particulars OF which have just be-
come known.
Learning that friend Of his was
coming to Jasper on business, f. C..
Ellison asked him to carry a letter to
the Jasper Trust Company for him.
Mr.. Ellisons friend agreed to bring
the letter as requested and was
handed an envelope addressed to the
Jasper Trust Company. Nothing was
said about the contents of the en-
velope.
The Townley man came down here,
attended to his own business, and
had boarded the Frisco train to re-
turn home before he thought Of Mr..
Ellison's envelope.
Rushing out on the platform at the
Frisco depot, the Townley man
asked shabby-looking man in over
alls if he would carry letter to the
Jasper Trust Company for him.
Yes, the man in overalls would
take it, and he was handed the en-
velope.
much obliged to you"
You are welcome"
And here the story ends.
The man dressed in overalls has
never shown up at the Trust Com
pany, and the envelope, which con-
tanned one hundred dollars, has not
been heard Of since the man in over
alls obligingly agreed to take it to
the Jasper Trust Company.
A $25 reward is offered for the
envelope and contents.

DEsTROYERs TO CANAL ZONE.
Their Necessity is Not Explained by
Governor Cocktails.

Washington, Dec. 12.-Col. Goe-
thals has requested that destroyers
be sent to the Canal Zone immedi-
ately, it was learned tonight, but
specific explanation Of the need for
naval vessels there was not included
in the message. A reply asking for
this explanation was sent at once, but
no answer had been received from
Col. Goethals at late hour
Officials believe, however, that the
canal Governor has experienced some
difficulty in preserving the complete
neutrality Of the Zone and it's terri
torial waters. Many ships belonging
to belligerent nations are in the vi
cinity, and 1t is thought possible Col.
Goethals has found himself unable to
check use of their wireless plants
within the three-mile limit.
With swift naval vessels to aid it
would he an easier matter to regulate
use OF wireless, and it was thought
probable tonight the necessary de-
stroyers would be dispatched as
soon as Col Goethals's explanation
was received.
Recent activity by British and
japanese warships in the vicinity Of
the Canal Zone, which followed the
disaster to the British under Admiral
Craddock, has given rise to some
concern here, although no specific
reports Of neutrality violations have
been received so far as is known.
Reports Of wireless interruption
from Panama have led to the belief
that colliers and warships were eX-
changing messages, which, if they
have not otherwise been open to OBJ
lection, have hindered commercial
use Of wireless to Il considerable eX-
tent.
In the view Of Col Goethals's mes
sage, 1t is believed code messages
have been picked up which disclosed
that to some extent the waters of
the zone have been made a base of
operations by one or both of the al
lied fleets, and that the Governor
wishes to establish a patrol which
will prevent further violations Of
neutrality.

DIsAkTER TARIFF BILL DEAD.
Representative s. II. Payne, of New
York, Dies Suddenly.

York, Dies Suddenly.
Washington, Dec. 10.-Represen-
tative Serene f.. Payne, of New York,
died suddenly Of heart failure at his
apartment here tonight.
Mr.. Payne had retired to his room
apparently in robust health. He
telephOned the apartment house
clerk about II O'Clock. asking that
physician be sent Tor. When the
clerk reached the room the Congress-
man was dying and life was extinct
before the doctor arrived.
Mr.. Payne, who was II years old,
lived alone and at midnight his body
lay waiting for the coroner without
friend or relative near. His wife
died three years ago and no one
could be found tonight who knew
the address of his only son.
Members Of Congress who had
seen Mr.. Payne on the floor of the
House to-day. active as usual, knew
nothing Of his death for more than
an hour
A Representative from New York
in every Congress since 1883 except
one, Mr.. Payne was chairman of the
ways and means committee and Re-
publican floor leader in 1909-1O and
directed the drafting of the Payne
Aldrich tariff bill. He was born at
Hamilton, y. Y, June 26, 1S42.
When the Democrats gained con-
troll Of the House four years ago Mr..
Payne was succeeded as Republican
leader by Representative Mann, of
Illinois, who had been one OF his lieu
tenants during the tariff fights. The
New York Representative, however,
did not give up his activities as a
party chief.

JOS. G. Camp, orator, comes to the
school house on Tuesday night as a
lyceum attraction. The entertainer

hoped that good audience will hear

tainer said that Senecas reputation
had gone abroad as giving small
houses to these affairs. Is it true?
Early risers found on Monday
morning that they must resort to
kerosene lamps to see about their
early tasks. The engine at the

steam was shut off at midnight to

LIQUOR, ORANGES AND PISTOL
Were Stolen from West Union Depot
on Monday Night.

Petty thieves as well as regulation
burglars and cracksmen seem to be
working overtime in all sections at
present. 1t might be just as well
for the citizen and householder to
have convenient at hand good and
sufficient" shotgun or pistol ready for
service at any time Of the night.
On Monday night last the Blue
Ridge depot at West Union was en-
tered by negro and two gallon eX-
press packages Of liquor, a pistol and
some 20 or 25 oranges were stolen.
OF course, the parties to whom the
liquor was consigned are much bet
ter off than if the negro had left the
liquor there for them, but still the
fact that petty thieves are at work
is none the less unpleasant.
On Tuesday morning a negro
boarded the train at West Union, and
lie was in particularly happy mood.
He had plenty Of good licker,"
fine pistol and was living high for
the moment on oranges. lie UlauS
no secret of his liquid possessions,
his pistol or the oranges, but rather
gloried in them, exhibiting them to
members of the train crew as they
happened to pass him in the car. But
none Of the crew suspected that the
stuff had been stolen from the depot
in West Union, and it was not until
the return trip in the afternoon that
they tumbled to he truth. Then it
was learned that the depot had been
entered, the liquor and oranges sto-
len, along with the trusy Smith &
Wesson, which belonged to the wife
of the depot agent, Mrs. Wilson. The
thief had also entered the money
drawer, but got only about 80 cents
in cash.
The negro was a stranger to the
members Of the train crew, and they
paid little attention to him. He has
for the present dropped out Of sight
and may never be apprehended.

them, too. If everybody in Oconee
