making to the U. S. in the matter of

Ed. Hamilton Arrested, Charged
With Swindling.

Ed. Hamilton, of Augusta, Ca,
was arrested in Abbeville yesterday
by Deputy Sheriff Chas. J. Bruce,
on charge of obtaining property by
false pretenses. Hamilton went to
Anderson Monday and traded a
horse to ]. J. Fretwell for two mules
giving papers for the difference. He
gave his name as Ed Williams and
his residence as Due West.
Different stockholders in this
section have been swindled out of
stock in the last few years by selling
mules on a credit to persons who
could never be found. They evidently
bought under assumed names, Civ
ing false information as to their
places of residence. 1t is believed
that Hamilton is connected with
some of these schemes.

Complimenting Mrs. Marshall.

One of the pleasantest meetings
the Daughters of the Confederacy
have ever held, was that last We'd
nesday when they met at the home
of Mrs. Fannie ]. Marshall and Gel
ebrated her eighty-third birthday.
Mrs. C. C. Gamorell, the new Pre-
sident of the organization, presided
for the first time but as this was a
festive occasion no business was
transacted. Mrs. Marshall had
prepared a history of the Abbeville
chapter from its organization, which
also contained many "reminiscences
of the people who make up the his
tory of the town. At the conclu-
sion of this sketch, box of lovely
birthday gifts was laid at the feet of
Mrs. Marshall by her granddaughter,
Miss Fannie DuPre. This box
was made in the shape of a sham
rock and contained many remem-
brances from friends.
Dainty refreshments of punch,
charlotte and cake were served in
the dining room. Judge R. E. Hill
presided astoast master, and res
ponses to the good wishes of the
season were made by Mrs. w. O.
Cromer and Mrs. Fred Cason. Be-
sides the regular members of the
Chapter, there were a number of
invited guests.
Each guest was presented with
shamrock souvenir which was made
of Confederate paper and bore Mrs.
Marshall's name and, the date of this
most pleasant occasion.

Russians Capture Przemysl.
Nothing has happened during the
present war that is of more impor-
tance than the capture by the Rus
slams of the Austrian Fortress of
Przemysl. The siege of this Aus
trian stronghold began in the early
days of the war. Reduced by dis
else and shortage of provisions,
the garrison has surrendered after
a defence lasting several months.
The fall of this fortress marks the
most important capture of the war
as it opens the door to Cracow, the
last remaining stronghold of Aus
tria and releases a large number of
Russian forces which can be thrown
into the struggle in the Carpathians.
The efforts of the Allies to force

The Way to Fix Father

Congressman Thomas U. Sisson,
of Mississippi, smiled when the topic
turned to the proper punishment for
a negligent husband. He said he
was reminded of a case of that kind,
according to The Philadelphia Tele-
graph.
Some time ago a married man ran
away with silly young girl, and
after an exciting chase the elopers
were captured and returned home.
Naturally the escapade was the one
theme of conversation in the small
town where they lived, and every
body in the corner store had it's own
idea as to what the husbands pun
ishment should be.
One suggested a life sentence, an
other said that 80 years in the peni-
tentiary would be the proper thing,
while third spoke eloquently of tar
and feathers.
"You are all wrong" finally re-
marked little man sitting in the
corner. 81 have a scheme that beats
all of yours mile down the boule-
ward"
"What is it," chosused the crowd,
quickly glancing at the speaker. You
wouldn't hang him, would you"
"No," was the quiet rejoinder of
the little man. 81 would turn him
over to the wife's mother"

room on one side. The kitchen was
in the rear, and the bed room of Mrs

The negro entered the rear kitchen
window, and came through the door
the two rooms. Another
door leading out the front of the
house was the way that the little
girl escaped to spread the alarm.
