CLARK CONVICTED
Florence Man Given Lie Sentence
Reached by consent
The Sta.e.

the Sta e.
Florence, June 9.-Accepting a YER
dict of guilty of murder with recon-
mendation to mercy, Howard Clark of
this county today was sentenced to
life imprisonment for tAe murder of
his wife, Anita Parrott Clark, at their
plans alton near this city last spring.
The case came to trial at the court
Of general sessions here today. At the
close of the testimony of the State the
attorneys for the defense offered to
accept verdict of guilty with rec
ommendation to mercy, without put
ting in any evidence. The attorneys
for the State agreed to this and rec
cmmended to the jury that they rem
der their verdict accordingly Ju-ge
S. w. G. Shipp then submitted the
case to the jury, who retired and after
10 or Is minutes deliberation return
ed verdict of guilty with recon-
mepdation to mercy.
Judge Shipp sentenced the man to
life Imprisonment in the State peni-
tentiary. Clark received the sentence
in his usual calm manner Not the
least emotion did he show, even
though Judge Shipp spoke of the re-
gret he felt in having to perform this
duty, on account Of friendship for the
young mans ia her, the late Fred
Clark, at one time representative in
the house from Florence county,
1t was thought the plea of the de-
fense would be insanity, but this was
abandoned after a number of experts
rad been called here to examine the
accused, among them being DR.. Bab-
cock of Columbia.
1t is understood that the agreement
as to the verdict was conditioned
upon fur her agreement that there
would be no attempt made to secure
O. pardon. The indictment charges
murder and alleged a premeditated
killing by means of a pistol shot and
by strycninine poisoning. The testi-
.nony produced was sensational and
revolving.
The jury was completed by ii
o'clock this morning. Judge Shipp
subjected each iuryman presented to
an examination on his voir dire and
a number were rejected before the
panel was made up. The box was
finally filled with David Gregg, fore
man, and the rest of the panel consist

CAPT. w. G. WEBB
A Friends Tribute to a Splendid Man
and Citizen.

10 the Editor OF Inc News and
Courier:
The passage from this temporal ex-
istence to the life eternal of Capt.
W. G. Webb marks the departure of
him whose loss, while irreparable to
his cherished wife and beloved child
rem, deprives our city of one OF the
highest examples of devotion to the
trust reposed in him in the business
world, OF performance Of civic duties,
obedience to law, reverence for re-
ligion and kindly consideration and
regard for mis- fellow man. He was a
man of great moral courage, and hav-
ing nigh conceptions of right living he
dared maintain them, but always en-
deaVored to effect results with grac-
ious courtesy and WANING gentleness.
During his last weeks of wasting i'll
ness ,he tribute to these noble attri-
butes was attested by the solicitous
enquiries of hundreds of devoted ad-
mires whose concern for his health
was accompanied with sincerest wishes
tha: ne might be spared fer the en-
nobling influence which his teachings
and practices eXerted upon all who
came in contact with him.
He held no high position in the af-
fairs of State nor on :he marts OF
trade; no politician, statesman, nor
moneyed magnate was heE but an
humble, worthy citizen whose loss to
his city is greater at this particular
time when we need so distressingly
God-fearing, law-abiding men-pat-
riots OF the people among the people
who unseIfshly guide them to right
for that righ. is right and to follow
right is wisdom in the scorn of con-
sequence and who do not mislead them
for personal aggrandizement.
Some years ago upon the resigna-
ton from the depar ment Of State Of
a modest but worthy employee, Sec
retary Elihu Root vote to aim:
Your labors have been inconspic-
uous and OF a cha ,acter to attract
little public atteGtion, and you cant
expect much public appreciation OF
them, bur they have been appreciated
by everybody in The State department
and by all who have had occasion to
become familiar with the working Of
the bureau OF citizenship, and shat
should De for yourself basis OF en-
daring satisfaction.
So it was with lamented Capt. Webb,

Look Years Younger! Try Grandma's
Recipe of Sage and Sulphur
and Nobody VIII Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which Is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get 8
large bottle for about so cents. Every.
body uses this old, famous recipe, be-
cause 10 one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does it
so naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with 1t and
draw this through your hair, taking
ore small strand at a time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

Natives Of Annoy.

look after their graves. Having thus
provided for the future, they go back
to their adopted land and return to
China only to die on their native soil.
In many cases they never return, n
their wives wait patiently In vain year
after year.
On the highest point of a mountain
at the entrance to the Annoy Harbor
stands a pagoda, more than 1900 feet
above the sea and visible for miles.
This pagoda, called the Southern Sen
tinel, is said to have been erected by
a faithful wife that her husband,
whose return she had awaited in vain,
might know that she had been mindful
of him if he came back after her
death.

IN VERY PRIMITIVE Annoy
Finest Rice In China Grown In Prov
Ince Where Customs Never
Change-Dearth Of Men.

London.-The inhabitants Of Annoy
plant and reap their crops as they
have done for centuries, and manu-
facture products in the same way.
The results are not bad, however, for
about 80 miles from Annoy the finest
rice in China Is grown. Here also Is
the soil particularly adapted to the
Chinese lily.
Almost all Of the cultivation OF the
soil Is done by hand. The rice plants
are transplanted by hand and the
fields frequently weeded in the same
way. If a farmer has some surplus
plants he throws them In an unused
corner neal a well and those who lack
enough for their planting may have
them for the asking.
Such implements as are in use are
extremely crude. The native pillow
does little more than scratch the u r
face, and the simple and inexpensive
harrow is usually drawn by an Indian
cow or bullock or sometimes by the
water buffalo. Horses and donkeys are
rarely used.
The emigration from this district
has been very heavy, and the male
population Of whole villages Is large
ly limited to old men and boys. Wo-
men are to be found whose husbands
left for the South soon after marriage
and have hardly been heard Of since.
Occasionally they return after years
of absence and purchase or adopt a
son for their Chinese wife, so that
their ancestors may be revered and
thew themselves have some one to

ought to be a typhoon of a game. Good

reckless enough to act as umpire Of a

They weren't like you delicate, air

Why, in my early days, We Pune
