changed in any particular, says Mr..

the last general assembly in regard to
pension was to add $4,000 to the pen
sion fund out of wi ich must come in
round rambers $17,5OO or the main
tanance of the Confederate infrmary.
Tae fund this year for pensions is
SIS, 500, and the fund will be thus dis
tributed by the comptraller general by
the direction Of the State pension
board The pensioners may expect the
money on Or about April Is, 1915.
There was absolutely no Grange made
in the pension law by the last general

PLENTY OF JOBS

NEW FEDERAL COURT PIE IS
APPORTIONED.
Several Places to BE Given, With the
Choicest PIums Kept in the Con-

P. H MCGOWAN, in The State.
Washington, March 12.-If South
Carolinians we're surprised last week
WI en- they l. card how successfully the
matter of providing or the appoint
ment of an additional federal judge,
district attorney and marshal for
the western district had been ar
ranged and now apparently only
those on t e inside were taken care
of, they will be more surprised still
if they will do little more real think
ing.
Alt ough tie positions of judge,
marshal and district attorney are the
three real big places, there are some
others, and if those Interested IN the
matter will keep their ears close to
the ground they will hear something.
That man very close to Senator
Tillman is to be clerk Of tie new
court-possiblg a relative, possibly
not-is about settled; in fact, was set
tied along with the passage Of the bill
and the immediate announcement of
who mad then already been selected
i or tie best places. Following the ap-
pointment Of William IIhurmond, OF
Edgeield, for district attorney-which
is likely to be made any day-comes
t naming of an assistant district at
torney-another nice juicy plum. And
here again do a little thinking and see
if you can not figure out where this
Job will fall. Rumor nas it-and some
times she comes pretty near the trGtl
that Mr.. Thurmond will name form
er Edgefeld man for the place, t is
man now being lawyer in a county
nearby. This man is quite close to
Senator Tillman and is said to have
been figured in the original plan
matched out mere last week. TAis last
appointment uSSO AOL NoUoC AAANS
comment when it is made, when the
wi ole thing is taken into considera-
ton, because it's all pretty much like
a big family affair anyway you lock
at it.
But even this will not by any means
complete the slate. T2ere are other
good jobs that are said to have al
ready been parceled out ready for the
organization of the new district ma
chinery. There are deputies and minor
clerkships and constables and Eigh
and low sheriffs, attaches and court
criers of various rank to be appointed.
Tsey are going to be distributed among
the amily and again little timely
advice might be given to outsiders to
save their time and money by not ap-
plying. There's no use. Just watch
and see who get the assistant district
attorneys place, then it will be seen
ow nicely this congressional family
division plan works out in the distri-
button of federal jobs.

HARRY THAW ACQUITTED;
FACES ANOTHER DANGER
Cleared of Conspiracy, He Will BE-
Object of Determined Effort to
Return Him to MatteaMan.

New York, March 13.-Harry K
Thaw, acquitted today of conspiracy il
escaping from Matteawan, faced to,
nigst a renewal of the determined CT
forts Of New York State to send him
back to the asylum. In his cell in
the Tombs ne was enthusiastic. His
keepers said he was wi istling like a
boy and seemed to be the happiest
man in the city.
Almost endless litigation seemed to
be in sight as the result of the verdict
The words of acquittal had scarcely
died On Foreman Bailey's lips wnen
Deputy Attorney General Cook was on
his feet witt a motion to have Thav
reoommitted to Mattcawan. This was
opposed by John B. Stanchfeld, chic
of TtaW's counsel, on the ground tina:
the court already had under advise
ment motion to return Thaw to New
Hampshire, whence he came to an
swer the conspiracy charge. The mo-
ton was renewed and Supreme Court
Justice Page set Monday at 2 p. m.
for argument thereon.
In the meantime Thaw occupies his
old cell in Tombs prison, the cell in
which he was locked during tee
months from the night he shot Stan
ford White, nearly nine years ago, to
his removal to Matteawan.
Tnaw's four aides In his whirlWind
automobile flight through four States
from Matteawan to Canada we're ac-
quilted by the same verdict which ac-
quilted Thaw and were discharged.
Deputy Attorney General Kennedy,
while satisfied with THE verdict in so
far as it related to Tnaw, said that he
had expected conviction of Tbsw's
accomplices.
An appeal from Justice Pages de-
cision on the motion to return Thaw
to Matteawan was regarded almost as
a certainty, regardless of what the de-
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1915-03-16

cision mig be. The case, therefore,
seemed likely to remain in the courts
for months before t e final decision.
utaW dined heartily in his cell in
the Tombs tonight. TO warden wao
brought him a number of congratu-
iatory kilograms lie expressed gratif-
cation at the verdict, but was non
committal wnen it vas suggested that
he might soon be declared sane and
receive his liberty.
'I'm not so sure of tie outcome as
that" said Thaw, "but l am going to
make a fight for it.

when we reached Easter island, we
filled baskets with earth. All we had
to plant were beans and peas, and
We soon found that they were not
growing. We were just about ready
to give up our window garden wen
there came wheat ship. We planted
some Of it and you see it is grow

Easter island was bright page in

strange little Christmas tree at the
captains elbow, still bearing its gold
candles, was a relic, the officer said,
from last Cristmas' celebration.
Lying on the table were photographs
which the captain displayed as tis

two great icebergs and a wide gray
ice field.
'We went far south of the Horn, y

the battles on the coast and we were
afraid to the straits. And then we
were up in the tropics shooting sharks.
