of ''Pitchfork Ben," a characterize"
ton which he did not resent.
Mr.. Tillman's career in the Senate
was full of interesting episodes,
prominent among which was his ex-
change of blows with his colleague,
Senator McLaurin, over an incident
which occurred in the executive ses-
sion, which cost him an invitation by
President Roosevelt to n1aet Prince
Henry of Battenberfg at a White
House dinner. Other incidents were
a sharp conflict with Colonel Roose-
welt partly growing out of a dispute
over the disposition Of Southern Pa
cific Railroad lands in Oregon; and
Senator Tillman's persistent and ulti-
mately successful fgfnt against Presi-
dent Rooseve1t's appointment of DR..
Crum, a negro, as collector of the port
of Charleston.
The Senator had previously an
nounced his intention to retire from
politics, but he reconsidered that de-
termination the belief that his init
mate knowledge of naval affairs would
be of service to the country in time Of
war.
Born in Edgefeld county, South
Carolina, August II, 1S47, Mr.. Till
man received anacademic education,
enlisted in the Confederate army in
1864 but saw no military service
owing to fact that he lost the sight
of his left eye from a severe illness
soon after he enlisted. In 1858 he
married Sallie Starke.
He was elected governor of South
Carolina in 1890 and again in 1892
His services to that state included the
founding of the Clemson Agricultural
and Mechanical College at Fort Hill,
for boys, and the Winthrop Normal
and Industrial College at Rock Hill
for girls. He was author of the dis.
pensary system for selling liquor I'M
der the control of the state.
A lifelong Democrat, he partici-
pated in the South Carolina Consti-
tutional convention which, in 1895,
made education a qualification Of
suffrage. He was central figure in
the Democratic national conventions,
particularly in those of 1900 and 1904.
He served for years as member of the
Democratic National committee.

The direful fate of the little girl in the song was to be to buy a rabbit butch and live all alone in theI title wood. But the American soldier saw no reason why Miss Besler, who is pretty and petite" and a typical American girl, should have a similar lot. After they had given her the three cheers and a tiger with which they usually thank the Y. M. c. A. entertainers, they hesitated a moment and then added a purely personal message.
 'Barkis is willin'," called the A. E. F., as one man.
 Since then the incident has been re- peated in every American camp Miss Besler has visited. No censor would allow an estimate of the number of proposals she received in that way to pass.
