WANTS HIS GRANDCHILDREN.
Senator Tillman Seeks Their Custody
for Two Months.

Edgefeld, June 8.-The report is
current here that Senator Tillman has
recently filed with the Supreme Court
of this State a petition asking that he
be given the custody of his two little
grandchildren, Lucy Dugas and Sarah
Stark Tillman, for the two summer
months to which, by former decree
of the Court, said their father, B. R.
Tillman, Jr., would be entitled to
their presence. 1t appears that the
latter has received an important Gov
ernment position that carries him to
Canada for the summer, and in his
absence it is the wish of the grand
parents to have the children with
them. Mrs. Dugas, their mother, is
cited and ordered to make return to
the rule on next Wednesday, the 10th
instant, and show cause why the
prayer of the petition should not be
granted.

and Geo. Hartnett.

Charleston, June 9.-On charges Of
conspiracy, assault and battery Of
high and aggravated nature a true
bill was found yesterday against Geo.
Hartnett and James K. Livingston by
the grand jury Of this county. Hart
nett and Livingston are alleged to
have decoyed Sam Rittenberg, mem
Der of the Charleston delegation OF
the House of Representatives, to the
Argyle Hotel few weeks ago, and
there struck him several times, bruls-
ing him about the face considerably.
Hartnett, Livingston and Rittenberg
were taken in charge by the police
after the affair at the hotel, but upon
being taken to the Police Station the
three were released without charges
being docked against any one. 1t Is
not known whether the case against
Hartnett and Livingston will be tried
during the present term of court.
No warrant was sworn out before a
magistrate in the case, the usual
course, but the charges were taken
direct to the acting solicitor and
grand jury.

TROOPS MAY PARTICIPATE.
Augusta Camp Open to Palmetto
Militia.

Columbia, June 9.-After the re-
ceipt of a telegram yesterday from
the Eastern department., United
States war department, Governors
Island, reestablishing the instruction
camp at Augusta, the governor, as
commander in chief of the National
Guard will to-day decide whether or
not the three South Carolina regi-
ments are to attend the camp. The
telegram from Adjutant Gen. Simp-
son was referred to the governor for
consideration by o. w. Babb, assist
ant adjutant general. The chief ex-
ecutive will give his decision after a
conference with the commanding Off
GERS of the regiments.
Several days ago the war depart
ment issued an order that the pro-
posed camp at Augusta had been
abolished because of the situation in
Mexico. Regiments from North Caro-
lima, South Carolina, Georgia and
Florida were ordered to prepare for
encampments within their respective
States. The order, however, was re-
scinded yesterday and the joint camp
will be held at Augusta.
The following telegram was re-
ceived yesterday at the Office of the
adjutant general from Adjt. Gen.
Simpson, Eastern department, Gov
ernor's Island, N. Y:
"In view of arrangements having
been made to hold joint camp at
Augusta, Ca, for Ninth militia divi-
sion and the great expense under
gone for that purpose you are au-
thorized and urged to send the mill
tia of your State to that camp in
spite of instructions contained in tel
egram of June 3, directing establish
ment of joint State camps. Immedi-
ate decision as to whether your troops
will attend camp at Augusta or not is
requested. All organizations your
State designated to attend joint camp
must camp same place during one
period"

PASTOR WOULD QUIT.
DR.. G. c. Brown Hands Resignation
to Sumter Baptlsts.

Sumter, June S.-Considerable of
a surprise was sprung in the First
Baptist Church yesterday morning
when, after the morning services, the
resignation of DR.. C. G.. Brown, who
has been pastor of the church for
nearly forty years, was read to the
congregation. After some discussion
and a motion to refuse to accept it, it
was decided to defer action on the
resignation until next Sunday.
DR.. Brown has served the church
faithfully for the past thirty-nine and
one-half years, and it has grown and
prospered under his administration.
He is generally loved and revered by
all of the members of the congrega-
tion, and the separation will be a
hard one for both pastor and mem
bers.
While he did not give his reasons
for resigning and his letter of resig-
nation came as a surprise to many
in the church, some of DR.. Browns
closest associates knew that he had
for a long time contemplated such an
action and were prepared when the
resignation was handed in. DR..
Brown, it is stated by one near to
him, will devote all of his time from
now on to increasing the sum laid
aside for the aged ministers relief
fund, work which he started twenty
one years ago, and to which he has
given much time, thought and money,
as we'll as work. The sum invested
for this cause is now more than s22,-
900, and between six and seven
thousand dollars expended annually
in this relief work.

BIG ORGANIZING PLAN.
American Federation of Labor to
Unionize Government Workers.

Frank Morrison, secretary Of the
American Federation of Labor. has
announced that the federation would
instruct its organizers to undertake to
unionize the 100000 employees of the
United States government throughout
the country. AS far as possible gov
eminent employees will be brought
into existing unions. but it will be nee
essary to create new unions for those
engaged in some lines of work.
There is no law prohibiting unions
of federal employees. although there is
a provision in the new postotfice APP
preparation act which says that en-
ployees of the postal service shall not
join any organization imposing an OBJ
legation or duty upon them to engage
in any strike or proposing to assist
them in any strike against the United
States"
This provision was enacted as re-
suit of an attempt to organize postal
employees into labor unions and the
fear that such organization would be
able to tie up mail trains,
Mr.. Morrison declared that the strike
question had no bearing on the inten-
ton to organize government employ
ees. The idea was. ne said. that with
an organization they would be better
able to obtain fair treatment through
applying to congress for redress.
Trade Study Board Named.
President Wilson has appointed the
commission authorized by congress to
investigate and report on vocational
education and trade training The
two unionists appointed are c. ii.
Winslow of the Sawsmiths' union, now
connected with the United States de-
partment of labor. and Miss Agnes
Nestor of the Glovemakers' union.
The American Federation of Labor has
repeatedly urged that vocational and
trade training be systematized to sup
plant the present practice i'll many
parts of the country where cultural
studies and fundamental vocational
training are overlooked while the stu
dent is forced to acquire a surface
knowledge Of things not practical.
