Quips and Quiddities.

There could be no dispute in the
matter. The jockey was just over
weight-only the merest traction,
but enough to disqualify him.
The disappointed owner glanced
from the little rider to the scales'
then to the rider again.
William" he said, cant you do
something to tighten yourself a bit?'
mo sir. amt 'ad a bit of any sort

Hum! Shaved?"
Yes, sir, five minutes ago"
Finger nails?"
The jockey held out his hands.
The nails were clipped almost to the
quick.
For a moment the owner was 81
lent. Then a bright idea occurred to
him.
Run away and have your tonslls
cut" he shouted. Hurry, lad, hur-

SAYS GUILT IS PATENT.
Justice Gage Affirms Judgment
Against Charleston Liquor Seller.

Columbia, March 1.-"There is no
room for parley, the defendant is
guilty by his own mouth" says Asso-
ciate Justice Gage in an opinion az
firming the Judgment of the Charles
ton county court in the case OF the
State against S. T. Schiadaressi.
This is a case of novel impression,
says the court.
"The defendant was tried in the
recorders court on the charge of SELL
ing alcohol. Later the defendant
was convicted in the circuit court.
There were II exceptions in the ap-
neal. 1t would be frivolous to con-
slider the exceptions in face OF the
defendants own admission on the
witness stand" The sale was charg-
ed to have been made on Sunday
October %, 1913. Continuing the
decision SAYS: "The defendant tes-
tilted there was no drinking in my

FRANK CASE RESTS AWHILE.
Probably Weeks Before Supreme
Court Decides.

Washington. Feb. 26.-Arguments
on the Northern Georgia federal
courts decision refusing a writ OF
habeas corpus to Leo NJ. Frank, un-
der death sentence for the murder
of Mary Phagan, were concluded be-
fore the United States supreme court
today. A decision probably will not
be given for at least several weeks.
Should the supreme court affirm
the decision of the lower federal
court no legal obstacle, it is said.
would stand in the way of carrying
out the death sentence. If the rul-
ing is reversed, counsel for Frank
and the State told the court, the case
must go back to the district court for
the taking of evidence on which the
allegations for the petition for the
writ were based.
The court was informed by Frank S
attorneys that should the writ be
granted Frank could be tried again
under the pending indictment. The
States counsel questioned this asser-
tion.

wonderful depth and her voice the

deaux correspondent. But the TRACE

NEW OTTOMAN CAPITAL.
Allied Fleet Creates Great Stir in
Near East.

London, March 1.-The flags Of
Great Britain and France now are
flying at the entrance OF the Darda-
nelles, over the Turkish forts reduced
BY the sea forces of the allies.
While it would appear that the al
lied fleet has reached Chanak. Is
miles from the Mediterranean en-
trance to the straits, the British
press warns the public not to expect
the immediate fall of Constantinople.
Nevertheless, the operations of the
British and French warships against
the sea defenses of Constantinople
are creating a tremendous stir in the
near east. Brousea, in Asiatic Tur-
key, has been selected by the Turks
as their new capital in case it be-
comes necessary to evacuate Constan-
tinople. 1t is declared the Germans
in Turkey had advised removal to
Adrianople in European Turkey.
Interest in the fighting along the
eastern battle front has been defect
ed for the moment from the Carpath-
ians to north Poland, where the Rus
slams appear to be making des-
perate effort to regain the ground
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg won
when he threw them back from east
Prussia. The stubborn struggle con-
tinues on the line from the Bobr to
the Nerew, where Grand Duke Nicho-
las has yet to establish his ascen-
dancy.
Vienna reports violent engage
ment in Bukowina without saying
anything about the outcome, while
Petrograd claims to have checked the
Austro-German advance in this re-
gion.
In the west interest centres on the
Champagne district, where fierce at
tacks and counter attacks have mark
ed operations of the last week. Ber-
lin claims to have repulsed the con-
tinued French advances in that re-
gion, while Paris asserts the French
troops have been successful in max
ing progress and repulsing the Ger
man counter attacks.
Paris claims also the capture of p
900 yards of trenches northwest and
north of Beausejour.
Practically all discussion of the
diplomatic situation has been sus-
pended in the expectation of the
statement Premier Asquith is to
make in parliament this afternoon
on the steps the allies probably will
take to meet the menace of the Ger
man submarine campaign.

The Bamberg Herald says it wa

The Bamberg Herald says it was
very early in the session when 1T de-
nounced the legislature for doing
nothing; but it changed its mind
later on. Our contemporary spoke
too quick. And there were others
and all of them. with Insignificant
exceptions, had the fairness at the
close to commend the work of the
session.-Newberry Observer.
We usually say what We have to
say when the saying thereof may be
of benefit. 1t is the easiest thing in
the world to bestow praise. 1t is not
easy to criticize. but sometimes when
even legislative body is apathetic
a few words of criticism may spur
it on. Our friend will have to ac-
knowledge that lot of valuable
time was spent in Columbia before
anything of any consequence was
done 1t is not a good policy TO put
off important work until the last mo-
ment-therein lies danger of that
work not being properly performed.

MURDER IS SONGS GILMAN.
Mexican, Goaded to Fury, Shoots on
Rivals Fingers.

Two men were slain and third
dangerously wounded in a gun and
knife fight caused by love song aud
guitar at Montebello.
Famed into a frenzy by the me-
lodious strains of Mexican love
ditty, sung and picked on a two
stringed guitar by Manuel Arroyo,
his rival for the hand Of pretty
senorita of Montebello, Robert Mar
tinez, first shot the fingers from the
hand at the strings, then crushed Ar
royo's head with the gun butt, and
turned to go.
AS Martinez reached the door he
was confronted by Victor Arroyo,
brother of the dead man, and Juan
Zuingo, a friend. Martinez grappled
with Zuingo and beat him on the
head with the gun butt. Victor Ar
royo was begging his brother to
speak to him. Martinez floored Zuin-
20 and started for the door. Zuingo
pulled his revolver and shot Martinez
in the back, killing him instantly.
Half an hour later Deputy Sheriffs
Fox, Nolan, Reeder and Modie were
at the scene of the fierce battle near
the Simons brick yard. Victor Arro-
70 had disappeared in the meantime
and none Of the Mexican residents
was able to give the officers valuable
information. The deputies later
learned through friends of the dead
men that each was desperately in
love with a black-eyed girl, daughter
of a Mexican ranchman, living near
by.
According to Deputy Sheriff Fox,
Martinez, who bunked few feet
from the Arroyo house, heard Arroyo
singing his love song to his sweet
heart. Insane from jealousy and
strong drink, he quietly crept from
his bunk to the window of Arroyo's
bunkhouse and shot the fingers from
his right hand. Then he rushed in
to the house and battered him to
death.-Los Angeles Times

The patrons and friends of the
Carlisle school greatly appreciate the
magnificent donation of Mr.. c. F.
Rizer for a gymnasium. The build
ing is soon to be erected, and will
fill long felt need of the school.
With a competent instructor, who
will be employed as soon as the build
ing is erected, Carlisle will be Sec
ond to no school of its class in this
State. The school is this year re-
ceiving the most liberal patronage in
it's history, the enrolment being
larger than at any previous session,
Notwithstanding the war and business

school with the gymnasium added

DIR. SHARP ATTENDS
OSTEOPATHIC MEET

DR.. M. H. Sharp spent last week in
Portland attending the annual conven.
tion of Osteopaths.
Because of the distance from east
ern centers," says DR.. Sharp, "the
convention was not very well attended
There were 500 members of the profess
sion present, whereas at Philadelphia
last year there were 1900 present.
The convention created a great deal
of attention and was given much pub
licity by the Portland press. Oste-
opathy has had a wonderful growth,
and now claims more members than
any other school of healing except the
regular Allopathic school. From the
modest beginning made by the founder,
DR.. Still. of Kirksvile. Mo, six col
leges have sprung up. Beginning with
this fall the course leading to a degree
will require four years.
"Our daily clinics in Portland were
very instructive, says DR.. Sharp.
I'VE had a great many more cases
registered than could be attened to.
One of the most wonderful discoveries
of Osteopathy is the cure of Potts dis
ease, hunChback caused from a tuber-
cular spine. A section of the shin bone
Of the patient is grated into the spinal
column, and thus absolute immobiity
results With the motion taken away,
the tubercular trouble is cured. -
