NEGRO PERISHES.
Prisoner Supposed to Have Fired
Guard House.

Anderson, Sept. GA negro
named White was burned to death
at o'clock this morning when the
guard house at WILLIAMSON was de-
stroyed by fire.
White was from Greenville coun-
ty and was arrested late yesterday
charged with stealing pair of ever
alls. When the fire was discovered
a policeman rushed in the guard
house, which is divided into four
cells, and tried to push White toward
the door. White was standing near
the rear window and was butting his
head against the iron bar across the
window, he resisted the officers ef-
forts, probably being stunned, and
perished. The fire is thought to
have originated on the inside of the
guard house. Supposition is that
White fired the building to burn his
way to safety. He was the only pris-
oner.
Just as the citizens Of Williamson
were returning to their homes at 6
o'clock after the guard house was
burned the barn and crib belonging
to State Senator George W. Sullivan
was found to be on fire. The build
ing, with all contents, except the live
stock, was totally destroyed. Sena-
tor Sullivan had stored in the barn
the largest crop Of oats he has ever
made besides lage quantity of corn
and farm implements and farm ma
chinery His loss is more than $1,000.
The origin of the fire is unknown.

American Embassy Remains at Paris

The diplomatic corps, excepting
the embassy of the United States, ac-
companies the government to Bor-
deaux. Ambassador Herrick's de-
cision to remain in Paris has been
warmly commended by the minister
Of foreign affairs because the repre-
sentative of the most powerful neu-
trail government will be able, should
the occasion arise. to serve the
French as we'll as his own people.
Mr.. Herrick thinks he can better
look after the several thousand
Americans here if he remains in
Paris. These are principally perma-
nent residents in business or persons
of moderate means unable to leave
conveniently.
Mr.. Herrick asked Washington on
Friday last if he might stay and Sec
retary Bryan gave his consent.
J. w. Garrett, minister of Argen-
tina, Louis A. Sussdorff, Jr., of New
York, third secretary of the embassy,
Captain Parker, military attache,
have gone with the French govern
ment to Bordeaux.
The American embassy is now
charged with British, Russian. Japa-
nese, Servian, German aand Austrian
affairs in Paris. Mrs. Herrick, who
has been i'll but is now recovering
will also remain here.
William G. Sharp. the newly ap-
pointed American ambassador, and
Robert Bacon, former ambassador,
arrived today. 1t is understood Mr..
Sharp will not take charge of the
embassy at once but with Mr.. Bacon
will assist Mr.. Herrick.

CONTRAST IN SANITATION.
German Soldiers Have Half as Much
Sickness and Death as French.

French and German sanitation has
been brought into strong contrast by
the simultaneous debates in the Ger
man reichstag and French chamber
as to the high sick rates in the re-
spective armies. The French mill
tary authorities show that the pro-
portionate amount of sickness is the
same as for many years, though the
death rate per 1000 sick is higher
than any year since 1908. The Ger
man soldiers have about half the
death and sickness of the French,
and yet the legislators are incensed
that there should be even that much.
The awful prevalence Of typhoid
fever in France is accepted there as a
matter Of course, but it would cause
a near-revolution in Germany. It
seems that public opinion, which is
the real basis of sanitation. is better
informed in Germany than in France.
The Swiss side of the Lake Geneva,
we are told. is model of sanitation,
but the French side is disgraceful.

ANOTHER SIEGE OF PARIS.
All the Public Knows Officially is
Contained in One Sentence.

London, Sept. 3.-The battle to de-
eide whether history will repeat it
self in a second siege of Paris is
still in progress, according to latest
official announcement
Future military historians will
write volumes of the details of this
battle, but all the British public
knows officially concerning the IL
tanic struggle-the most momentous
British soldiers have fought since
Waterloo-is contained in one sem
tence of an official report issued last
night by the press bureau:
Continuous fighting has been in
progress along almost the whole line
of battle"
To this the French official commu-
nication adds the fact that the allied
forces have fallen back toward the
southwest to avoid an action under
unfavorable conditions. How far and
to what line the allies have gone is
unknown

Getting Out of the World.

There may be fuller line than
usual of dissatisfactions with life,
but the facilities for getting out of
it were never more various or ac-
lively operative. One is impressed
with it in reading a Monday morning
paper. Motor cars continue to be
the steadiest agency of homicide,
but drowning has made strong
showing lately, as it usually does
when summer weather attracts
pleasure parties to the water. Acct
dents in mines, destroying life by
wholesale, are no novelty, sad to say,
but the recent proceeding by which
nine Austrians lost their lives in a
too-real sham battle between air We
hicles is painfully modern. A man
was killed by lions in Chicago which
is unusual in Chicago.
The means of killing people by
machinery was never 80 prevalent
as now and never so active. Never
theless, the average of life still
lengthens, so the presumption is that
machinery pays back to life more
than it takes out of it.-Life.

COW AND HER PRODUCT.
Clemson College Weekly Notes for
Farmer and Dairyman.

The silage system helps to main
tain soil fertility and to build up run
down soils.
A poor mixer is almost certain to
diminish the milk flow.
A calf's digestion is easily upset
and much attention should be given
to this point. For example, one
should never give a calf warm milk
at one feed and cold milk at the next.
Scours is caused by eating spoiled
feeds, too much salt, too sour silage,
etc. The best thing to do is to re-
move the cause. If scours occurs
soon after the cows go to pasture,
feed hay with grass.
AS a general thing, the cow that
eats and drinks a great deal is a
money maker. Feed is converted
into milk and unless a cow eats a
lot Of feed she cannot give a lot of
milk.
1t is not enough that a. cows
mother was a good mixer. Find out
what sort of milk producers were
among the sire's female ancestry.
There is very little difference in
the cost of maintaining cow thSt
gives 10 pounds of milk and cow
that gives 80 pounds of milk. A
comparatively small amount added
to the purchase price is likely to
mean the difference between a
money-making cow and boarder.
Dirty milk is not only very expen-
sive, since it sours so quickly, but it
is also capable of transmitting to
those who drink it many of the worst
diseases. Clean milk, on the other
hand, will always be one of man
kinds most beneficial feeds. Keep
milk clean.
After the milk flow, through lack
of sufficient feed, has been allowed to
run down, it is very difficult matter
ever to restore it to its former
amount.
A common cause of failure to get
butter to come easily is a too low
temperature of the cream. This
makes it hard to churn.
1t is we'll for every farmer to re-
member that, in dairying, he can get
no profit until after the cost of feed
ing and handling has been covered.
Keep record charging the COWS
with every pound of feed given them.
Then, by the use of the scales and
the tester, one can tell without trou-
bic which cows are profitable and
which are not.

His Wandering Boy.

The telephone bell jingled merrily
in the officers room at Central sta
tion the other night, and a feminine
voice replied to a corporal's hello
'rIs dis der poIeese station?"

"Nuddings. But he won't stay at
home at night. He just runds

sometimes he don't get home till
nearly 10 o'clock.
Smothering a desire to laugh, the

The Blue Boys in Marion.

News reaches US that Chief OF
Navigation Victor Blue and Surgeon
General Rupert Blue will come to
Marion this week for a short stay
with members Of their family.
When these great men reach Marion
the impressive titles imposed upon
upon them by Uncle Sam will fall
like discarded mantles, and again
they will be Victor and Rupert-at
home and to all of the "boys." The
Star would like to arrange big re-
ception for these sons Of Marion, who
have climbed so rapidly and so high
in the service of the nation, but we
fear that the visits to Marion would
become less frequent because Of such
pomp and ceremony. "The Blue
Boys" are up against the pomp and
the ceremony day after day. and
when they are in old Marion we wish
them to feel that they can confident
ly stroll uptown" and smoke, and
joke, and yarn with the fellows of
the use-to-be-days of long ago. To
see the chief of navigation Of the
United States navy, or the surgeon
general of the United States army,
on the streets of Marion, mingling
with lifetime friends and play fel-
lows, one would never imagine their
Importance, and it is just this fea-
ture which probably appeals to these
gentlemen on their visits to Marion.
In simple way we can only say
welcome to our heroes, and add
that Marion loves her blue Boys,
and ever wants them to come back,
again and again, and mingle with US,
to slap US on the back and be slapped
on the same friendly slapping place.

Sanity and Honesty.

Some called it impossible idealism.
Others sneered at it as schoolmaster
ideas of government. Cowardice and
lack of patriotism, shrieked the
Hearst yellows. Sanity most of us
call it now-sanity and honesty.
Lack of balance, lack of calm
Judgment, lack of honesty-those
things have plunged Europe
into war. The possession of those
things by President Wilson kept this
nation out of war.
Five letters spell Woodrow Will
sons ideas of dealing with indivl-
duals, and those same letters spell
the word upon which is based his for
eign policy. Those five letters are
right.
Chicanery and Machiavellian diplo-
macy, thickness, cunning attempts to
get ahead of others, desire for what
belongs not to them and the exer-
else of all the tricks in the Meter
mich system of diplomatic dealing to
attain that desire have characterized
the dealings of European nations
with each other Ethically, diplo-
mats in Europe are horse traders.
The new American principle is diff
ferent. 1t is based upon the theory
that intercourse between nations is
ruled by the same ideas of right and
as is intercourse between individuals.
President Wilson did what was right.
He gave every nation it's due. and de-
manded nothing but what was our
due. He applied the ordinary canons
to national and foreign relations.
And all the time he kept his head.

Youth.

Youth came into the market place
half dazed by the dazzling brilliance
of the sun, but with strong hands and
a ready spirit. Youth found mas

charged with labor aand meagerly re-

gave largely of service and Of loyal

gal, being richer in them than in dol
al, being richer in them than in dol
lars. Years rolled by, and Youth was
less quick, and showed the pallor of
working indoors for small recon-
pense. Then one day the master re-
flected and said to himself: Which
of my handmaids has less to give me
in the time to come? For l must
keep in my house only those whose
backs are strong and feet eager and
hands subtle" And she whose name
had been Youth passed languidly. and
the master marked her without
that she no longer sank softly at her
work as once, and he reflected: "A
few years and she will be of much
less value to me, and I shall be pay
ing her as much as her labor is worth
to me-which would be no bargain.
Better dismiss her today than tomor-
row." And he called to her and
said: "My plans are altered, Youth,
and 1 no longer need you here. Take
two weeks, look about you, and be
sure that shall give you letter
of recommendation saying that have
found you a fairly faithful servant
in such matters as you understand.

HOPE.

What tho the days be sulky,
And full of grief and fear;
Our burdens be so heavy
That we can hardly bear
There's One who always helps us
Ger the weary way
Whenever we will ask Him
Aye, He will help today.
Tho friends desert US boldly
And enemies arise;
Tho neighbors treat us coldly.
And take us by surprise;
Yet help is always near at hand
Within the reach Of all,
If only we will ask for it,
No one need ever fall.
