SOLDIERS WHO WEAR Wells
British Troops In Southwest Africs
Have to Conduct Campaign
Under Difficulties.

One Of the hottest places where the
British are fighting is in German
Southwest Africa. where General
Botha is in command of an expedition
against the enemy. The habitable part
of German Southwest Africa lies In
the center of a sun-scorched, water
less, shadeless desert OF shifting sand.
and General Botha's men have to carry
everything they need. for nothing
whatever can be obtained from the
country, not even FODDER for the ami
mails.
The sand penetrates everywhere.
and the heat of the sun is SO terrific
that all the troops fighting with Gem
eral Botha have been served out with
wells and goggles" Without them.
indeed, 1t would be impossible to get
along at all, and, as it is, hundreds
of the Boer burghers, though hardened
campaigners, have been so blistered
by the sun that they are in hospital.
The heat at midday is 1872 degrees

pass that time of the day with moth
ing on but a sun helmet and a pair

BALLOONIST DASHED TO DEATH

Jacksonville, Fla, Jan. 10-In the
presence of several thousand persons,
George Taylor of Philadelphia was
dashed to death near the Florida os-
trich farm this afternoon when, in
some maner, the parachutes failed
to work as he made his leap from
the big balloon, which is Sunday
feature at the farm. Taylor had risen
to height of about $4,000 feet, when
his campanion, Andrew Owens, gave
the signal to him to cut loose. AS
his body dashed through the air and
the parachutes failed to open, the
large gathering stood horrorstricken,
not one making move until his body
struck earth in Evergreen cemetery,
just 100 feet from the point where
two years ago, almost to the day
Richard Payne, an aeronaut, was
dashed to death in the same manner
Practically every bone in his body
was broken by the fall.

annual music festival, which this year

in which not only the plucky and pro-
gressive Spartan city but the whole
State feels just pride.
The DamroSch orchestra, which has
furnished the orchestral background
for the festival for a number of years,
but for sake of variety has been sup
planted for few seasons by the
Metropolitan opera house orchestra,
has again been engaged, together with
a number of very prominent vocal
stars. That the festival, in spite of
the war and the influences thereof,

pf its predecessors is the positive as
Surance which comes from the di-
rectors.
The spirit and pluck of the festival
association and of the citizens of Spar
tanburg were commended in an edi-
torial paragraph in The State when
the announcement was printed after
the directors meeting the first of De-
