The Governor Throws a Fit.

The subterfuge of throwing a fit
is as old as. Aesoph's Fables, we be-
lieve, and the story of the goat that
got upon a high rock to taunt and
challenge his enemy, we know, is in
corporated in that storehouse of hu-
man incentives.
If Governor Blease overheard a
man say in drug store at Bamberg
yesterday that he was going to hear
'Blease speak today, as it would be
the last speech Blease would ever
make" why did he not confront the
coward" as he afterward called him
from the platform, and ask him then
and there what he meant by his re-
mark, and hold him to personal ac-
count for it?
Why wait until he got on the plat
form, surrounded by police officers
and constables, and protected by the
crowd, to call the unknown man a
coward" and challenge him to ap-
pear.
1t is possible some person of sound
political judgment in Bamberg made
the remark that he was going to hear
Governor Blease speak, as it would
probably be the last speech of his po-
litical career that the governor would
make, but if such very likely speech
had been made, it was, no doubt, per-
fectly innocent and entirely justified
by the probabilities presented by the
present political outlook.
Of course, if the speaker had meant
anything else, Governor Blease would
have called him down on the spot, if
he was anything like the valiant
swash-buckler he pretends, but it is
likely that it did not occur to him to
make political capital out of it, in his
present desperate need. to divert at
tention from his official record, until
he reached the stand, or until after
the incident occurred, at all events,
if it occurred at al.
We are all tough and devilish
sly" like Joey Bagstock, when it
comes to inventing things We could
have said, and deeds We could have
done after the eeYent.-Columbia Rec

HORSES THE SIZE OF DOGS.
legend of the American Desert Open
Secret to Biologists.

Horses, some no larger than shep-

tory that until this year it had not
been believed they had existed on
the Western Continent, once cavort-
ed and frisked on the Mojave Desert
and. after cavorting and frisking. left

In the face of. rocks all the way
from France to China have been
found fossilized remains of the ia
NOUS Hipparton horse OF the PHO
Gene Age, but until the Mojave told
its story to Prof. John Campbell Mer-
riam. of the University of California,
this country was thought to have
been one of the newer lands where
pliocene animals never roamed. The
discovery gave proof to the theory
that the continents were connected,
and brought a tinge of authenticity
to the cherished legend Of the van
ished bridge of land" The Mojave
went further.
A worldwide search for the partic-
ular species of Dobbin that ran wild
before the Hipparion had never fill
ed the gap in knowledge until the
California professor started digging
again in the Mojave, the Thousand
Creeks, Virgin Valley and Nina fos-
sill fields of Nevada. Then was dis
covered the horse of the middle or
late Miocene Age, the great-grandad-
dy of the Hipparion, and proof posi-
tive that, so far as present research
can show, horses inhabited what is
now the Pacific coast before they
trotted over the slopes of the Older"
continent.
The story of the horse, as written
in fossils today, means that they orig
mated not many miles from San Fran
cisco, and have roamed over a world.
This continent is no longer to be de-
spised as the new" one, because it
was discovered by men at a later
date.-San Francisco Chronicle.

A Royal Mexican Ghost

The hot springs of Las Siervas near
Vale de Cani5os, in a remote part OF
the State of Guerrero, Mexico, have
been visited from the outside world,
SAYS the Boston Transcript, but they
are famous in the legends and history
of the Indian tribes of that part Of the
republic.
According to the natives, the waters
of the springs possess great medicinal
properties. In ancient times the
springs were the favorite bathing re-
sort of the noble families of the Te-
paneca, Alcolhua and other tribes that
/, lived in that region.
On both sides of the chief spring
there are huge rocks with hieroglyph-
les and the figures of women beautl-
fully carved. Judging from the robes
worn by the women, their stately ap-
pearance and the jewels around their
necks, the figures must represent
princesses or ladies of very high rank.
The spring is at the entrance to a
grotto that has never been explored.
From the grotto rumbling sound re-
sembling distant thunder is to be
heard all the time. According to ma
tives, the rumble is caused by the
ghost of King Excamina, who ruled
over that part of the country three
or four centuries before the Span
iards discovered America.
King Excamina, the tradition says,
was as bad as man could be. He mur-
dered people merely for the pleasure
of seeing them die and committed ev-
cry crime. He had his palace con-
structed in another cave, which COM
municated with that of the spring by
a tunnel. There Excamina, in COM
pany with some of his favorites, had
orgies that lasted weeks and months.

Money for Fish Station.

Washington, June Ex-senator
Tillman today offered an amendment
to the sundry civil bill appropriating
$4,000 for an addition to the fish
cultural station at Orangeburg, ex-
planning that it was identical with the
amendment which Representative Le-
yer endeavored to have adopted by
the House last week. If the Senate
adopts the amendment there is good
chance of retaining it in conference.
