NAMES ON ENGINES.
Southern Railway to Encourage Pride
Among Its Drivers.

Among Its Drivers.
The Southern railway has recently
adopted a novel plan in order to stim-
ulate the interest and pride Of engi-
!neers in their engines. It has been
decided to assign each engineer to an
engine and if the locomotive has been
kept in good condition after certain
number of miles have been covered,
the engineers name will be printed
on the side of the cob.
It is a well known fact among rail-
road men that many engineers take q
personal interest in the upkeep Oh
their engines and pride themselves on
the cleanliness and smooth running
order of it's various parts. Pet names
have often been applied to locomo-
tiyes and it is to reward these men
and to serve as an incentive to others
that the plan of placing their names
on the outside of the cabs was ad-
vanced by the officials of the road
President Fairfax Harrison of the
Southern has recently installed
number of improvements on the road
for the benefit of the employees and
this will likely prove to be one Of the
most popular as we'll as beneficial In
stimulating the interest of the engi-
neerS in their work.

WEBS FIANCE'S RIVAL.
Georgia Girl Runs Off From Man She
Was to Marry.

The romance of Florence Martha
Pickard, daughter Of the Rev. DR.. W.
L. Pickard, the new President OF
Mercer University, who eloped from
Savannah, Ca, last Friday !sith her
old sweetheart, Everett Harrison, Of
Halifox, n. S., while her announced
fance, Karl Gustav Karsten, was on
his way from London to wed her,
ended sadly in New York after a
honeymoon of four days
The mother OF the girl has received
a letter saying she wants to come
home. The information was hardly
sufficient to determine whether she
had been abandoned by her husband
or whether she has merely grown dis
satisfied with her choice. Announce
ment of the engagement Of Miss
Pickard to Mr.. Karsten was made
July 70. The marriage was to have
taken place July 2S, at the First Bap-
tist church of Savannah.
On the day the engagement was
announced Harrison arrived in Saw
annah and visited Miss Pickard. He
was said to have been engaged to her
once. Within five days Miss Pickard
eloped with him. karsten reached
America on the same day.

CHILDREN IN MILLS.
State Factory Inspectors Give Stats
tics on Cotton Mill Help.

A glance at the report Of the in
spectors sent out by the State depart
ment of agriculture to inspect the cot
ton mills shows a decrease of S72
white males, while there has been an
increase of % white females, SIC
negro males and IS negro females.
Though there has been an increase
Of 163,10S spindles and 1880 looms
it is noted that there has been a de-
crease in the total number Of opera
tives of 427. These figures would in
dicate that the mills are installing
modern labor-saving machinery, and
that there is further tendency to
change from coarse to fine goods.
With this increase in spindles there
has been gradual increase in chill
dren between the ages of IA and 16
years, an increase of 81 white boys
and 104 white girls, and an increase
of II negro boys and 10 negro girls.
Between the ages Of - and IA years
We find an increase Of 1876 white bows
and Sc white girls, with an increase
Of s negro boys and S negro girls.

CANAL RULES
Ships Must Observe Them in Passing
Through Panama.

Rules and regulations for opera
ton and navigation Of the Panama
canal are provided for in an executive
order just issued. Generally these
are framed upon the regulations in
force in the Suez canal and the 500,
though there are new features made
necessary by peculiar local conditions.
One is the limitation of six knots
per hour imposed upon the speed of
vessels in the Culebra cut, and it is
even required that in approaching
turns vessels shall maintain the slow
est speed that will keep their head
way. In Gatun lake, however, in the
thousand-foot channels, the speed
may be as high as fifteen knots; in
the S00-foot channels twelve knots,
and in the 500-foot channels ten
knots.
Everywhere else in the waterway,
in Mirafores lake and locks and in
the entrances to the ports, the six
knot rate prevails. Greatest precau-
tions are to be adopted in the pas
sage of vessels containing quantities
of high explosives or infammable
cargoes to guard against injury to
canal locks or other vessels.

COAL RATES FIXED
SOUTHERN POK ARE BOTTLED
UP, SAYS DULANEY.
According to West Virginia Operator
Pennsylvania Powers Try to Push
Traffic Away From Charleston.

In his testimony at Washington
Monday before the Senate naval af-
fairs committee B. L. Dulaney, one
of the best known coal operators in
southwest Virginia, told the commit
tee considering the Tillman resolu-
ton regarding shipments Of coal to
South Atlantic cities that the South
ern railroad had so manipulated
things that it is now impossible for
that section to ship coal with a profit
to Atlantic cities.
This fixing of high rates, Dulaney
said, was due to the control of the
Southern by directors who had COM
paratively little financial interest in
it. Their great interests were in the
coal trusts of Pennsylvania and they
were also in the Northern railroads
and set the rate from their mines to
1 the seaboard in the North so nigh
that it was cheaper to ship coal from
PENNSYLVANIA mines to Philadelphia
and then by sea to Charleston than
to ship direct to Charleston from the
Southern mines
Those responsible for this condi-
ton, according to Dulaney, are Geo.
IF. Baker, Geo. F. Baker Jr., Ebert
H. Gary, Adrian Iselin, Adrian 1se-
lin Jr., Charles Steele of ]. P. Nor
gan & Co., E. ]. Berwind, president
of the Berwind-White Coal company,
Henry K McHarg and Grant c.
Schley.
Were the rates on coal from the
Southern fields to Southern potts fix
ed on anything like the basis on
which the rates from the Pennsyl-
vania fields to Northern ports, or
from the Pocahontas fields to Norfolk
and Newport News, Dulaney said,
abot 100000 tons year would be
moved by the Southern railway and
other lines in that section. Putting
lit in another way, Dulaney said, ST.
100000 was taken from the Southern
seaboard to pay for coal brought over
Northern railways and then by barges
or boats which ought to come direct
by rail from the Southern mines.
! Dulaney declared that Pennsylva,
MIA railroad companies entirely domi.
mated the rates on coal to the sea-
board. He cited reports Of the inter
lstate commerce commission, showing
the control by the Pennsylvania and
the New York Central of the Balti'
more & Ohio, Chesapeake & Ohio
Norfolk & Western and other North
ern carriers. He then declared thai
the directors of the coal trust
Through their control Of the Southern
land other carriers in that section
were able to stifle competition from
independent coal miners in the South
| AS an instance OF discrimination
against coal produced by indepen
dents and against the Southern rail
way as a handler of coal, DulaneJ
said that on each ton of coal hauled
| from Alexandria to- Washington ovel
the bridge by the Pennsylvania, thai
railroad made charge of 81 cents
lif the coal had been hauled to Alex
|andria by the Southern; but only 2(
cents if the coal had been hauled tt
Alexandra via the Norfolk & West
ern.

ATTACKo WHITE MAN.
Gaffney Negro is Shot to Death by
Man He SlaShed.

While dozens of hurrying pedes-
trians, composing the usual Saturday
evening crowd. looked on. Harold
Sparks, a we'll known young white
man of Cherokee county. shot and in
stantly killed negro named Hose
Moorheal, alias Nose Petty, on one
of Gaffney's principal thoroughfares.
The shooting took place about s
o'clock and no shots were fired until
after the negro had already cut the
white man across the left shoulder.
inflicting number Of painful
wounds.
1t is said that the dispute arose
over the fact that the negro would
not drive his wagon out Of the way
to let the white man pass. and when
the two met later in the evening the
argument. was renewed. Heated
words were heard and then the negro
is said to hae seized Mr.. Sparks and
dragged him from the door of store,
inficting the cuts with large knife.
Sparks then opened fire with his pis-
tol and three bullets took effect in
the negro's breast near the heart.

AIKEN KILLING
Lee Yaun Charged With the Death of
Willie Brown.

The place of Mr.. Albert Yauu, in
the Shaw's Fork section of Aiken
county, was the scene Of a killing on
Saturday night, when Lee Yaun, son
of the former, shot and killed Willie
Brown, a farm hand. There were
only two eye-witnesses to the occur
renee and the testimony of each was
in contrast at the inquest, which was
held by Coroner Spradley Sunday
morning. One, Mr.. e. C. Moseley,
testified that the shooting was justi-
fable homicide and the other claimed
that it was without provocation.
The dead man and Samp Hightow-
er, it seems, had been to a frolic in
that neighborhood on Saturday night
and when returning went to the we'll
at Mr.. Yaun's place to get water.
While there they cut watermelon.
Some claim that MIR. Lee Yaun came
out and asked them where they got
the melon and that the fuss started
over that, and the shooting was in
self-defence. Others claim that Mr..
Yaun stated that he would settle with
Brown and began firing.

STRIKERS ROUT GUARDS
AFTER ALL-DAY BATTLE RIOT.
ERS FIRE ARKANSAS MINES.
Strikers Wreck Plant With Dyna-
mite and Apply the Torch-Loss
100000.

After pitched battle between sew
eral hundred coal miners and their
sympathizers and one hundred guards
at the Prairie Creek mines Of the
Mammoth Vein Coal company, near
Fort Smith, Ark, Friday. which end
ed in the rout of the guards. tipples
of three mines were destroyed by fire
and dynamited. The property dam
age is estimated at 100000.
So far as can be aScertained no
one was killed or seriously wounded
in the fighting, which began shortly
after daybreak and continued until
late in the day, when the mine
guards retreated after their ammuni-
ton was exhausted Rioters held
possession of the mines for several
hours, wrecking the plants with torch
and explosives.
All Friday night the properties are
deserted. Preparations are being
made to send additional armed men
to- resume occupation Of the mines.
County officials went TO the scene,
but before they arrived the attacking
party had disappeared.
Fridays rioting was elimination
Of a series of minor disturbances
which have occurred at intervals
since the contract with the United
Mine Workers was abrogated last
March, and announcement made that
the properties owned by the Bache-
Denman Coal company, but under
lease to the Mammoth Vein COM
pany, would be operated on an "open
shop" basis.
In one attack several employees
Of the company were badly beaten
after they had been forced, by a mob
estimated to have numbered more
than a thousand men, to withdraw
the fires from the boilers. Last Sun
day night Frogtown, union min
ing camp a mile distant from Prairie
Creek, was "shot up and the disor-
der was repeated Wednesday night.
Each faction of workmen charged the
other with the responsibility OF the
shooting. No one was injured.
At the time Of the first outbreak
an Injunction was secured in the
United States District Court to re-
strain the strikers from interference
with the operation of the mines, and
a force of fifty men, under the direc.
ton Of the United States marshal
placed on guard. This force was re.
called under instructions Of Attor-
ney General McReynolds, who held
that it was the duty of the State and
county officials to protect the mine
properties.
Last Friday officials of the com.
pany applied to United States Dis;
trict Attorney Bourland to be per.
mitted to recruit company Of mel
to be commissioned by the United
States marshal, but under instruc'
tions from Washington the company
was not organized, the attorney gen
eral holding to his previous ruling
that the situation should be taker
care of by local authorities. Gov
Geo. W. Haynes stated that no re
quest had been made to him fol
State troops.

WAS INDEPENDENT DEMOCRAT
j. P. Gibson Tells of His Candidacy
in 1880.

From long statement, containing
much irrelevant matter, we publish
the following essential statements,
made by J. P. Gibson, in reply to the
| display Of Mr.. Pollock Of a ticket
bearing his name and two negroes as
candidates in 1880. Mr.. Gibson
states:
That in 1876 and in 1878 he was
"red shirt" rider for Hampton, voted
for Hampton and did arduous and
dangerous work to bring about the
Democratic triumph.
That il. 1880 he was candidate
on white independent Democratic
ticket for the legislature, along with
a number of prominent white men,
for various county Offices.
That he did not know that his
name was placed on a ticket with
Republicans and negroes until the
day of the election and that it was
without his consent.
That in any address signed by him
self and others on hi. ticket, pub
lished during the campaign, which
he has preserved, it was declared that
they were opposed to the restoration
of radical rule in the State or the
county.
That he can prove that in speech
the campaign Of 1880 he said
that he was not a Republican leader
and that he would withdraw anu help
to elect the nominees Of the Demo-
cratic convention if the Republicans
put out a county ticket.
That the ticket exhibited by Mr..
Pollock was not the white independ-
ent ticket on which he was candi-
date, but the Republican ticket on
which his name was placed without
his knowledge or consent.

READS PARODY.
Pollock Amuses Grow at Pickens at
Governors Expense

At .Pickens Mr.. Pollock Friday re-
viewed Gov. Blease's record, saying
it contained so many things the gov
ernor could not explain that he
(Blease) would not attempt to do so.
In connection with the governors
pardon record the speaker referred to
the pardon Of portland Ned, and
read a parody on "Old King Cole,
which amused the crowd.
He referred to the appointment on
the governors staff of J. Preston Glib
son, James Sottile and Edwin Hirsch,
calling them "a sweet bunch" to be
saluted when the governor, with his
topknot waving" reviews the State
militia. Mr. Pollock read the Char
lesion list, asking the Bleasites pres
ent how they liked being lined up
with such bunch of dagoes''.

velopment and advancement Of the
State
Despite these pleas, partisan ten
sity is noticeable at every meeting,
though the lines are apparently far
less closely drawn than in 1912.
Whether or not this continued plead
ing for elimination Of factionalism is
responsible for the marked quietude
at the campaign meetings is mat
ter of personal opinion and of con-
siderable doubt.
