Hutchinson, who about year ago fig
ured in the public press by marrying
7 a Miss McEachin. of this county. and
leaving her destitute in Atlanta,
turned up here a day or SO ago and
went to the home of his wife and

: ing surprised Hutchinson and threw
double-barreled shotgun in his
face and made him hold up his hands,
while the warden OF the convict camp
searched Hutchinson and took his
automatic revolver from him and
300 rounds Of ammunition and pro-
cured the rife from Il local hotel.
The sheriff carried Hutchinson to
his Office at the court house, and
while the sheriff's back was turned
on him for moment he sprang
through window and made his es-
cape, still handcuffed.
Hutchinson brought into town a
negro, and it is supposed the negro
Will communicate with him and fur
nish arms. The sheriff and large
posse are now searching for him
and it is generally supposed that
when they come up with him Hutch
inson will put up a desperate resist
ance and bloodshed is expected.
On Wednesday Alder McEachin, a
brother of Hutchinson's wife, went
to the home Of his mother 10 bring
his sister to town and McEachin says

ambush. Hutchinson then went to

law.

Statements that May BE Investigated
Testimony of WaIhaIla Citizens.

When a Walhalla citizen comes to
the front, telling his friends and
neighbors of his experience, you can
rely on his sincerity. The state
ments of people residing in far away
places do not command your conf
dence. Home endorsement Is the
kind that backs Doan's Kidney Pills.
Such testimony Is convincing. Inves-
tgation proves it true. Below Is
statement Of a Walhalia resident No
stronger proof Of merit can be had.

halla, S. c., says: "My kidneys were
disordered, as was shown by too fire.

AMENDMENTS TO BE VOTED ON.
Two of Them Relate to School for the
Deaf and Blind.

To the Voters Of South Carolina
At the last meeting OF the Genera
Assembly, at our suggestion, two
amendments to our State constitution
were proposed for the betterment o.
this school to be voted upon by yor
at the coming general election. II
these proposed amendments are an.
proved by the people of this Stat,
voting Yes" upon both Of them the
school for the deaf and blind will no
longer be claSSed with the penal and
charitable, but with the educational
department Of the State. In order TO
effect this change of classification it
Is necessary to amend our COnStitu-
tion in two places. First, it is neces-
sary to so amend as to take the school
from the penal and charitable sec
ton. A second amendment is ncCes-
sary to place the school under the
educational section.
At the coming general election you
will be asked to cast your ballot
either for or against these two pro-
posed amendments. Knowing that
the people of this State will uniform
ly vote Yes" on these two amend
ments, provided they are informed as
to their importance to this school, !
tive OF this school, to address this let
ter to you.
A century ago the deaf and the
blind children Of these United
States were allowed to remain a bur
den to their parents and their friends.
About half century ago, great ad-
VanCement had been made when a
large majority of the States had es-
tablished schools under the name of
"asylums" for the deaf and the blind
children. SO ignorant were the
masses of the people in regard to
the ability and needs OF these chill
dren that they could not disassOciatc
the charitable idea from deaf and
a blind child. But there has come Il
general awakening in all our States
They are recognizing the fact that
every deaf and every blind child
within the bounds Of these United
States has right to hope for an edu-
cation and Il right to hope that it will
not be handed out to him with the
label OF charity upon it, while his
more fortunate brothers and sisters
get the same thing and there is not
the suspicion Of charity with it. The
work done at our school is education-
al in the highest sense, for it includes
instruction along literary, musical,
industrial, physical and moral lines.
Our graduates are successful men
and women winning their way in the
world and gaining the respect of
the people around them; they are
never objects Of charity and the
school that makes them should not
be classed with the penal and charit-
able work Of our State. For years,
for all practical purposes, our classi-
fcation has been educational, but le-
gally we have carried the stamp CT
charity upon us. To take away the

U. S. IN NEED OF MORE MEN.
To Properly Garrison the Countries
Coast Defenses,

Washington, Oct. 22.-An urgent
plea for more men to garrison the
country's coast defenses was made by
Brig. Gen. e. NJ. Weaver, chief of
coast artillery, in his annual report
to-day to Secretary Garrison. No
new fortifications were asked for in
addition to the proposed forts at
cape henry TO command the entrance
to Chesapeake Bay.
Calling attention to the larger
guns of foreign warships Of latest
design, Gen. Weaver asked that 16-
men guns be provided for Cane
Henry.
"Otherwise," he said, these forti-
Icatohs may be subjected not only
to very much greater volume of
nre than can be delivered by them,
but also have the disadvantage of
replying to that fire with guns of in
ferior power, both by reason of the
diameter Of the bore of the gun and
by reason Of it's shorter length"
or the need for additional artil-
lerymen, the general said:
The shortage of coast troops for
the United States proper is at the
quirementS as to make it matter
deserving the serious consideration
of Congress.
He reported 564 officers and 1O,-
9SS men below the needed number,
explaining that the taking Of 25 COM
panies, to which must )e added "a
IN the near future, for service in the
philippines, Hawaii and the Canal
Zone, had crippled the service at
home.
UNLESS provision is made in the
near future the report continued,
FOR additional coast artillery per-
sonnel 1T will be necessary to reduce
the garrisons to some caretaker de-
tachments at some Of the defenses Of
lesser importance, including Ports
mouth, Delaware, Charleston. Sa-
Vannah, Key West, New Bedford, Po-
tomac, Tampa, Columbia, Baltimore.
