AMERICAN GAME

In This Country.

The great American game Is not

putting on OF u false front, assuming

have what we do not possess. But the
bluffer Is known to everyone for his
masquerade fools no one but himself
Some pretend to be rich when they are
struggling hard against the fortunes of
lie. But the most harmful bluff is in
appearing to be healthy when you are
really sick. Be afraid Of i'll health, not
ashamed OF 1t. Those who look for
health shall find 1t. Those who turn
away their heads shall suffer. But
there are wise people who will not stay
sick. One Of these is George Cheshire,
OF 1908 Eoff street, Wheeling, a rail-
road engineer. who said recently to Mr..
Renfrow: ''For years did not feel
like eating. could not relish my food
and for the past year did not have any

lude yourself that you are healthy II

National Importance

Republicans at the Nations

sire His Election.

WASHINGTON. D. c.. April 25.-
1t matters not how the voters OF
the Second district may look upon
the contest over the vacant seat OF
Junior" Brown, the fact IL tho
politicians in the nations capital re.
gard It as o battle Of national i'm
portance. the outcome Of which will
affect In q most significant way the
political temper and sentiment OF
the country. With that fact clearly
established in their minds the par
ties are going to grips in the Second
district for fight to finish on
national Issues. and the finish will not
be reached until the polling places
shut down at sunset May 8, and the
cnnnt begins.
The Republican National Congress

which to view it-there hasn't been

tie staged In the state for years. Re-
publican success-the victory OF the
Honorable George NJ. Bowers by n
substantial maiority-will be herald
ed broadcast as a Reputation of the
party in power; should the result be
contrawise, It will be heralded just
as widely as a vindication of the Will
son administration. The effect of the
balloting on May Q on the national
situation, on the eve of presidential
campaign, will not fail to impress

ant.
The nomination Of the Honorable
George NJ. Bowers by the Republi.
cans at Berkeley Springs at one OF
the best, most harmonious and most
representative conventions ever held
in the district, has met with approval
everywhere, according to reports that
have come here. 1t is conceded that
he was entitled to the nomination,
now that the party is reunited and
1t looks like Republican year. He
made a great race before against
heavy odds in the shape OF divided
party. His defeat was accomplished
only with the aid of Progressive
party candidate. He would have won
easily otherwise. as the vote of 1914
shows. This year that candidate, the
Honorable Noah Keim, of Elkins, Is
back in the Republican fold, and Is
for Colonel Bowers. Like Sam Mont.

at the convention, he stood before
the enthusiastic delegates and pledged
his loyal support to the nominee.
The Republican leaders. whose of,

the party and its able and popular
candidate in the Second. Here is
what they say about it:

MAY ESCAPE DEATH.
SENTENCED FIVE TIMES

Columbia, Dec. Attorney Cen
eraI Thomas H. Peoples this morning
rendered an opinion to Supt. Griffith,
of the State penitentiary, to the effect
that the appeal taken to the supreme
court in the case of Willie Bethune,
five times sentenced to death in this
State, and whose case has been acted
upon by the United States supreme
court. will automatically stay the ex-
ecutiou of sentence.
Bethune is negro sentenced to
death for killing a white man in Clar-
endon county. He was convicted i've
times, and each time sentenced 10
death. Various new trials intervened.
On the final judgment of the supreme
court of this state, an appeal was TAX
en- to the United States supreme court,
which affirmed the judgment of the
court below. On after-discovered en-
6ence, a new trial was granted in this
state, and the venue was changed to
Lee county. The defendant was again
convicted and sentenced TO electrocu-
ton. The appeal Of his counsel stays
his sentence.
The letter Of the attorney general.
directed tn Supt Griffith, OF the penn
tenhary, Is as follows:
"In compliance with the verbal re-
quest from Capt. w. H. sondley that
you be advised as to the date upon
which one Willie Bethune, now IN
your custody under sentence of deatn
for murder, should be executed, l beg
to advise that as evidenced by a Ger
tilted copy of an order OF Judge
George e. Prince by the clerk OF
court Of Lee county an appeal has
been taken from the judgment ana
sentence Of the court Of general ses-
sions to the supreme court OF south
Carolina by Messrs. John H. Clifton
and H. D. Noise, attorneys for the
defendant, Willie Bethune, which ap-
peal will automatically stay execution
OF he sentence until the said appeal
is determined by court Of compe-
tent Jurisdiction. It will then be nee
