Ancient CourierS.

1t was the custom of the couriers of
the middle ages to carry silver beads
in their mouths to lessen thirst. In
certain districts of India which are not
traversed by railways the ancient cou-
riers still survive and carry mails from
village to village. In the jungle dis
tricts they carry bells about their
necks to brighten away tigers. The
American Indians had their swift run
ners, who carried messages in times OF
war between allied tribes or from the
warriors In hostile territory to their
native villages, and extraordinary tales
are told of their swiftness and endur-
ance. The running messenger in Eu-
rope was succeeded by the mounted
messenger, and as civilization pro-
crossed systems Of couriers were es-
tablished, which slowly evolved into
the modern system Of posts.

WASHINGTON The state de-
partment now has before it four i'm

all of which require answer by this
government. They are:
A supplemental note from Great

and detention of the cargoes.
A special note from Great Britain
on the seizure of the cargo of the
American ship Neches while en- route
from Rotterdam to an American
port.
Germany's answer to the United
States in the case of the William P.

United States protested and described
as a violation of a treaty.
A note from Germany through Am

gests to American shippers that their
vessels display very prominently the
American flag, that they may be rec
ognized at distance by commanders
of German submarines

Water Hemlock.

If you are fond of parsnips you
should before eating them make sure
that they are parsnips and not the poi
sonous roots of the water hemlock.
The water hemlock grows in marshy
places in various parts of the United
States. It's roots, which look almost
exactly like those of parsnips, are full
of deadly poison known to science as
spasmOtoxin.
Animals frequently die from eating
the hemlock and occasional cases of
serious illness and death among hu-
man beings have resulted from eating
parsnips with which tho poisonous
hemlock roots had been mixed by mis-
take. In India the water hemlock is a
favOrite method of suicide.
Even very small dose of the poison
in this root is sufficient to cause death
from asphyxiation, paralysis and ex-
haustion and no antidCae for it has yet
been discovered.-NewHOrk American.

Arguing With an Expert.

Never argue with an expert. 1t is
useless. There is no way Of making
Roadway against him. Though you
may know much more than he does,
you can't possibly get him to admit it
His main defense lies in the possession
of his own special vernacular. No ex-
pert is complete without vernacular.
Many experts have nothing more.
In arguing with an expert he always
begins by assuming, first, that you
don't know what you are talking about
and, second, that if you did know
what you were talking about you
couldn't talk about it intelligently, be-
cause you lacked the specific vocabu-
larry that the subject demands AS the
argument proceeds he spends so much
time asking, Just what do you mean
when you use the word -" and you
spend so much time explaining your
terms that you totally forget what you
are arguing about. Obviously when
man forgets what he is trying to prove
he should Immediately quit trying to
prove it.-Iife.

LIEUT.. BECKER DIES
IN ELECTRIC CHAIR
Put to Death for Part in the
ROSenthaI Murder.

OSSINING, N. Y. Charles
Becker, former police lieutenant in
New York, went to his death in the
electric chair in Sing Sing peniten-
tiary at 5:45 o'clock Saturday morning
His was the fifth life which the
state demanded for the conspiracy
which resulted in the murder of Her
man Rosenthal, the gambler, who was
shot down in front of the MetrOpole
hotel in New York on July 16, 1912.
Becker had been convicted of hir-
ing a band of thugs to do away with
Rosenthal to prevent the exposure Of
police graft in New York's Tenderloin
The four gunner who were convict
ed of the actual shooting 'Dago
Frank" Lefty Louis, "Whitey" Lewis
ard "Gyp, the Blood''-were executed
on April Is, 1914.
Becker spent restless night in his
cell His wife was with him until
1880 in the morning.
81 can now face death with a calm
heart" were his last words as he
babe his wife farewell. Mrs. Becker,
accompanied by her brother, George
Lynch, went to New York City.
After listening to the pleading of
Mrs. Charles Becker for more than an
hour at the Nelson House at POUCH
keepsie Friday night Gov. Whitman
refused to intervene in the behalf of
Becker.
The governor gave as his reasons
the fact that the appellate court has
found Becker guilty and no new evil
dence had been produced.

"LoneIy" and "Lonesome."

Here's the distinction between the
words lonely and lonesome, although
often they are used i'll the same sense,
Lonely" means to be deprived Of hui
man society and cOmpanionship, while
lonesome" is the detection and sad
ness due from lack of society. The one
is a state of being, the other a state of
mind.
To be lonely is entirely physical,
while lonesome is exclusively mental
and may be the result Of actual lone
liness or may merely be an imaginary
lonesomeness caused by mental depres-
sion.
The difference between the words is
better illustrated in the following: A
man is sitting in the library of his
home, both lonely and lonesome. The
telephone rings. Friends invite him to
join a merry party then in progress u
few miles away. In order to reach this
party he must mount his horse and
traverse Il lonely and dangerous road.
In this journey he is lonely, for the
road is lonely, but he is not the least
bit lonesome, for his thoughts are pleas
ant in anticipation of the enjoyable
evening he is about to spend with gay
cOmradeS.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

FRENCH MARINES
LANDED IN HAYTI
u, S. Grants Republic Permis-
sion to Safeguard Legation.

WASHINGTON France has re-
the United States to land marines at
Port au Prince, Hayti, for the protec-
ton of the French legation in that
city, where Admiral Caperton is in
control.
This attitude of France shows that
she at least regards the United States
as in unquestioned control of affairs
in Hayti. In the opinion of officials
it shows also that, after the landing
of marines by Admiral Caperton, the
United States must be regarded by
foreign nations as fully responsible
for eventualities The United States
will thus take care of not only Eng
hsh and French but German, Austrian
and other interests.
1t was stated that the danger in
the city is regarded as increasing. It
L. expected by navy officials that as
Admiral Caperton has cabled that
more marines might be needed" the
department will at a moments notice
send a thousand marines as reinforce
ments from Philadelphia either by
the Hancock or by the North Dakota
or by both
Navy officials say the situation may
be made critical for the 400 marines
in Port au Prince at any moment.
They estimate the population at about
$4,000 There are therefore about 12.-
600 men capable of bearing arms in
the city and suburbs.

LONDON Great Britain and
France have started to carry the sub

Dardanelles to the North sea the al
lies undersea craft have opened a
campaign against the Germans and
Turks which already has cut Con-
stantinople off from Asia, thrown the
city into terror and sunk a German
torpedo boat destroyer, a German
cruiser, a 5000 ton Turkish steamer

submarines shelled and blew up the
Galata bridge across the Golden Horn,

The craft followed this by sinking an
other transport in Karabogha bay
According to dispatches from Mu-
dros this exploit threw the entire
Turkish capital into terror.
The feat of the British submarine,
as announced by the admiralty has
added another exploit to the annals
of warfare by bombarding shore posi-
tions with torpedoes. Turkish pow
der mills and the railway of Kara
Burnu, along the Sea of Marmora
were attacked.

According to another admiralty an
nouncement the British have finally

fare by adopting the methods of Won
Tirpitz and raiding the German coast.
The admiralty statement says:
GA British submarine has returned
and reports the sinking of a German
torpedo boat destroyer, believed to be
of the G-196 class, on July &c, near
the German coast"

class were built in 1910 and 1911.
They are of 800 tons displacement,
with speed of thirty-two knots AL
hour.
Cruiser Also Sunk.
The admiralty announced last night
that a German cruiser was sunk by

sian Army anu Inen DdttST III
Northern Defenses of Polish Capital
-Czar's Troops Are in Good Posi-
tions.
AMSTERDAM - The Luxembourg
correspondent of the Tyd reports
that 100000 Germans the last ten
days have passed through Luxembourg
on the way to the western war theater.
PETROGRAD Three hundred
thousand Germans, under Won Gall
witt, have begun a terrific drive south
ward in an attempt to cut the War
saw-PetrOgrad Railroad by crossing
the River Bug at Vyskof, thirty miles
northeast of Warsaw.
Their aim is to seize the railway at
Tluscz, twenty miles northeast Of
Warsaw, and surround a part of the
Russian armies still holding the sail
ent around Warsaw. Won GallWitz is
equipped with heavy guns of all cali
her, and has been supplied with fresh
troops, presumably from the western
battle front He evidently has been
ordered to batter by quick, smashing
blows the northern defenses of the
capital and force the city's fall with
out further delay.
Ammunition Aids Germans.
The official dispatches placed the
advance guards of this German force
southeast of Olaski, on the railway
leading to Vyskof, and thence over the
Bug, but did not indicate their exact
distance from the river. Military
men, however, pointed out that if the
Germans have the unlimited supplies
of ammunition credited to them in
Berlin reports they will be able to
continue indefinitely their terrific
drives, eating through Warsaw's
northern defenses mile by mile until
the comparatively small force of Rus
slams still defending the city is COM
PEELED to retire.
Russians in Good Positions.
The war office declared that the
Russian positions along the Bug near
Vyskof are good, and that there is no
ground for the belief that the Ger
mans can crush their way through to
the Warsaw-Petrograd railway by a
short campaign
To the contrary, it was declared
possible that Russian tenacity and
stamina may yet prove a match to the
enemys superiority in weight of guns
and metal.
Teutons Closing in on Warsaw.
LONDON While the Austro-
Germans continue to tighten the wings
of their great eastern battle front,
with success at both extremities, in
Guiding the occupation of Mitau in the
north and further progress beyond
Chelm in southeast Poland, the situa-
ton before Warsaw proper remains
unchanged.

The announcement of Mat S.
Cohen, of Richmond, for the
Democratic nomination for Com
missioner of Agriculture, appears
in another column of this paper.
MIR. Cohen was in Columbia a
couple of days last week and
made short address on Monday
to a large crowd in the Court
house in which he outlined his
method of campaign, his posi-
ton in regard to the duties of
the office be seeks and pledged a
faithful, earnest administration
of the same should he be elected.
1t is but just and fair to state
that those who met him and the
many who heard him speak re-
gard him as a man of ability,
merit and determination. He
was reared on a farm in Madison
county and has been in close
touch with agriculture in almost
every phase of it's varied inter-
ests down to the present and is,
beyond question, a man well-ft-
ted, in every particular, to meas
ure up to the highest efficiency
in the most important interest of
this State. Not only a clear
brain, and industrious record
with farm and stock back him,
but his un :arnished political at
tachment to Democracy and his
congressional kinship should add
additional weight and prestige
to him in this part of the State.
AS a gentleman he possesses a
genial disposition and has as
much magnetism. the power to
draw you close to him, as any
man who has made tracks in the
streets of Columbia for many
years and if nominated unques-
tionably would prove his worth
| to the ticket in the November
contest.
