RED BUTTE SHOWS
GREAT ACTIVITY
EXCELLENT SHOWING ON SEW.
ERAL PROPERTIES IN THAT
LOCALITY

w. w. Wells who is in town from
the Antelope range, in the western
part of the county, states that there
is considerable mining activity in
that section of the county.
The Craven Copper company,
which has a valuable estate in the
Red Butte section, is arranging to
do more extensive development and
increase the force of miners at
work on the property. The a
agement, says Mr.. Wells, is arrang-
ing for an aggressive CO campaign from
now on and in a short time will be
extracting high-grade copper from
at least three places on the COM
pany's estate. The ore exposed in
the workings Is of the shipping
grade and will be hauled as fast as
extracted from the mine to Ante
lope station, on the Western Paci-
fic, to be taken to a smelter for re-
d%uction. The hauling is to be done
with a large Packard truck, which
the company purchased during the
early part of the winter. Antelope
station is about fifteen miles from
the Craven property. The com
pany has built a platform there to
facilitate the handling of the ore
in making shipments.
Mr.. Wells says that there are a
number of other people at work in
the Red Butte camp who have fine
showings of ore and will soon be
shipping.
A. d. Ramel, one of the original
locatOrs in the camp, is opening a
nice gold property that will be
heard from one of these days. for he
has a big ledge showing a good
grade of ore. The ore is free and
pans a long string of colors.
A. A. Dufner is another claim
owner in the camp who has a fine
showing of gold ore.
The Juniper Hills Mining com
pany, another big concern operating
in the camp, is getting ready to
start operations on their extensive
property. This company did con-
siderable development work on the
estate last summer.
The prospects are good, says Mr..
Wells, for the accomplishment OF
a large amount of development in
the Red Butte section during the
coming summer. Besides the gold
and copper showings in the camp,
there are good prospects. of galena
and cinnabar ore that will be work
ed on during the summer.
There is considerable snow in
that section yet, but it is disappear
ing rapidly and it will only be a
short time when the road will be
in good condition for the hauling
or ore to the railway-Humboldt
Star.

TO ERECT MEMORIAL IN LIB.
RARY,

By special effort, the ladies of the
Civic League. with the hearty approval
and cooperation OF the local board, a
short while ago secured permission
to place in the vestibule of the library
building. now nearing completion. q
memorial tablet to Miss Dulce Noise,
who first organized a public library in
this city, and who was founder and
first president Of the Civic League Of
Sumter.
They propose that the memorial
shall be in the form of n handsome
bronze tablet bearing q portrait me-
dallion and appropriate inscription.
They have already had donated q
part OF the necessary funds, but,
Miss Noises work having been in the
nature Of a public bcnefaction, it has
been thought proper to allow the citi-
zens an opportunity to give expression
OF their appreciation by contribut-
ing to the fund.
To this end a committee of ladies is
now receiving subscriptions for that
purpose.

ANSWERS TELEGRAM OF GOV.
MANNING IN REFERENCE TO
SECOND REGIMENT.
Governor Tells of Disappointment OF
South CarOlinians at Failure of
Gen. Funston to Return Boys From
Border. ..,1-

Columbia. Jan. 31.-Gov. Manning
has received the following letter from
Secretary of War Baker:
Your telegram of January Gath has
been received. I have had the mat
ter relative to the Second Infantry,
National Guard of South Carolina,
looked up and find that five regiments
were ordered returned home who ar
rived on the border subsequent to the
arrival Of the South Car rolina reyi-
ment. The records also show that
sixteen regiments who were ordered
home arrived on the border prior to
the arrival of the South Carolina reg
iment.
Gen. Funston can not always fol-
low the rule that the regiments long,
est on the border are the first to re-
turn, because such course would some
time result in reducing the force at a
particular point more than he deems
advisable. Consistent with this idea,
! am sure Gen. Funston selects the
regiments longest on the border for
return home.
II am in hopes the above stated
facts will be sufficient to show you
there Is no disposition to discrim-
nate in any way against the South
Carolina regiment in designating a
time for its return to it's home"
The governor replied as follows:
Newspapers here carried story
last Sunday that the Second South
Carolina Infantry would be included
in order for return Of troops from
border. Keen disappointment felt
because our regiment was not includ-
ed in this order. Practically every
unit included in this order went ia
the border after the Second South
Carolina Infantry. Am daily Yeceiv-
ing urgent requests from our people
who have held positions open for our
men for information. Please wire
me as fully as you can"

There has been no American am
bassador at Mexico City since Henry

since Huerta handed Charge Nelson

Gillian minister cared for the interests
Of the United States for a long time;
various unofficial agents have been
sent to Mexico on special missions and
since recognition of the de facto con-
stitutionalist government subordinate
ofncials have been in charge of the

ARMED SHIPS WILL Be ISSUE,
TEUTONS WILL RAISE QUESTION
IN COMMUNICATIONS WITH
AMERICA.
Thought That Warning Will he Given
Americans by Central Powers,
Which Will Again Bring up Serious
Questions.

Washington, Jan. 3e.-Information
has reached here that Germany and
her allies are considering communi-
eating to the state department a yir-
tual warning that Americans should
Keep off armed merchant ships of
belligerent nations. This became
known today following the intimation
in official circles Yesterday that the
United States might issue soon a new
memorandum setting forth it's attitude
toward armed merchantmen.
It is not known just when or in
what manner The warning may be
conveyed but Germany apparently has
been paving the way for such q step
by submitting to the state department
series Of statements alleging specific
attacks against submarines by entente
merchantmen with guns carried os-
tensibly for defense.
The armed ship question is involved
in practically all the submarine cases
pending between the United States
and Germany over which an admit
tedly grave situation eventually will
have to be faced. Officials Of the
American government, however, still
believe that the submarine issue Will
not be forced to conclusion as long
as there is possibility of tangible de
velOpments toward peace.

BatOcki Clearly Indicates Shortage at

Amsterdam (via London), Jan. 80.
According to the Berlin Vorwaerts,
Adolph Batocki, president Of the food
regulation board. clearly indicated in
recent speech that the German food
supply for the spring was very scanty
and would require the most careful
distribution and economic use.
Calculating potatoes in the value OF
wheat, he said, for the current year
there were 100000 tons less of both
available for animal and human con-
sumption than last year and that ow-
ing to the prohibition of wheat for
animal feeding. this would greatly
diminish the yield of animal products
Even turnips can not now be used foY
animal fodder.
Herr Batocki pointed out that i'm
ports from neutrals were a slender
factor in the situation and that the as
sets gained in Eoumania, while valu-
able, colud improve conditions only
gradually owing to transport diff
icu!ties. He defended the system OF
distribution Of fOOdstuffs with the re-
mark: The scarcer the total guam >
tity of supplies the more necessary is

CHARGE AGAINST TEAI.
warrant Sworn Out for Young School
Teacher.

Greenville, Jan. 30.-A charge Of
seduction is made against w. Archie
Teal, school teacher near Hartsville.
in warrant taken out before Maeis-
citrate Daniel here this morning, by a
citizen of the Ebenezer section of the
county near Travellers Rest. Teal
taught school at Ebenezer last sea-
son. The warrant was taken out by
the brother of the young woman. The
Darlington county officers were re-
questcd by Sheriff Rector today over
long distance phone to arrest Teal.
and they stated that they would ap-
prehend him within the next hour or
so.
The issuance of the warrant this
morning comes as sequel to the
events of few days ago when Teal
was brought from Hartsville to Trav-
eler's Rest in an automobile by two
men of this county.
The unexpected departure of Teal
with the Greenville men at that time
aroused considerable excitement in
the community and numerous tele-
phone and telegraph messages were
received by Sheriff Rector inquiring
about the affair. A few days later
Teal returned to Hartsville. Teal ac-
cepted the position as teacher in q
school near Hartsville after the last
school term at Ebenezer and it is un-
derstOOd he since married.
