although a six-footer in altitude. and
he easily defeated the Hebrew battler,
who stood only five feet. five inches.
1t was while training for this bout
that Carpenter had his first meeting
with BOmbardier Wells. The latter
offered TO spar with the Frenchmaa
at his camp. and the bout soon devel-
oped into the real article. The Bonn
barber was not only two inches taller
than Georges. but he was about so
pounds heavier, and about six years
older and much more experienced. In
spite OF this disparity the slender
trenchman showed a lot Of skill and
grit, but the Bombardier put over sew
eral nasty blows which We're not at
all TO Carpenters liking. Descamps,
Carpenters manager. was even more
peevish about the way Wells had
waded into his man in a friendly
sparring match. and then and there
the two Frenchmen planned TO get
'revanche." And they did. for when
Carpenter took on weight and ex-
perience he whipped Wells at Client
and again in London While Georges
is in the French military service. the
Bombardier has again donned the
uniform Of the British army. which
he was wearing when he first burst
into pugiiistic fame.

On the night of January 25, 1 think
1T was in conversation in Columbia
with me and another man of Colum-
bia, whose name do not care to di-
vulge without his consent, Mr.. Aull,
in discussing his letter, said that the
man he charged with offering to car
~ the State Republican" was Form
er Senator John L. McLaurin. The
other circumstances updorI,,;rr oua
bolstering his charge against Mr..
McLaurin, if they are to be made
public, as narrated to me by Mr.
Aull, will have to be given out by him.
During the course of our conversation
of January 25 Mr.. Aull stated that if
necessary, he would give out what
ever proof he had in substantiation of
his charge. This he reiterated at
Aiken last Wednesday when I told
him that 1 had given Mr.. Cooper a
copy of his letter, although he stated
he hoped it would not be necessary as
he did not care to become involved in
a controversy with Senator McLaurin.
When l gave Mr.. Cooper a copy of
the Aull letter I gave him he SUBJ
stance of Mr.. Aull's allegations against
Senator McLaurin. also told him
that as neither the letter nor the con-
versation with Mr.. Aull were conf

Boards LETTER TO MLAURIN.
Abbevilie Man Says Blease Asked to
BE Put on Republican Ticket as
Presidential ElectOr.

To the Editor of The State:
The following is copy of the letter
l received from w. p. Beard, Abbe-
vile. S. c., to which reference has re-
Gently been made in the public prints
of the State:
"Abbeville, S. c., March 5, 1918. Z,
c"Confidential)
Dear Senator:
Il appreciate your effort in my be-
half and also recognize the fact that
the leaders of my own faction are
sacrificing me to save themselves. The
rank and file are true and do not
doubt my loyalty, or that / am ca
pable of throwing what political in
fluence I may have behind President
Wilson to help win this war Cor the
United States, notwithstanding our po-
ltical difference, but they can do
nothing. Since l am caught between
the Charybdis of cowardice and the
Scylla of hate. the best l can hope
for is the fair minded men who know
that this is political persecution will
in forming judgment take into con-
sideration the fact that my whole ca
reer is proof of loyal nature, shall
not allow the injustice of this verdict
to shake my loyalty to my country.
nor the fact that my political debtors
deserted me in time of need to cause
me to lose faith in humanity.
Il have realized for some time that
while Blease was right in his propa-
ganda and has the inclination to lead
the workers to political power he
hasn't the nerve to face the con-
sequences of possible failure in a real
attempt to accomplish it. That was
plainly shown in many instances in
1912. He named my Bull Moose
ticket as it was called, then come out
after he was declared the nominee
and spoiled the situation by deserting
to Mr.. Wilson having the senatorial
toga i nview, while the Bull Moose
teat was MIXED dry. In 1914 he gave
way to pressure from certain favored
leaders and after declaring himself
neutral i'm the gubernatorial race al
lowed his name used under cover to
help Richards against Irby and
Simms. 1916 he as you know and
protested against il. at the time asked
me TO get Duncan Adams to put him
and yourself on the Republican cleo
toral ticket with myself. then laid
down on me when he found that you
refused it. You know that he en-
couraged me TO put out that ticket for
him at the following general election.
which you again advised me against.
Then he got cold feet and left me in
the lurch. Now that am convicted
he Is afraid Of his own previous lam
guage and has deserted me.
Sincerely yours,

Desserts-Sugar Savers.


Use the deserts which do not de-
pend upon sugar for their texture.
Sugar substitutes will give the de-
sired sweetness. In cakes not quite
the same product is secured with all
sugar substitution, but in all other
desserts equally satisfactory results
may be obtained.
Desserts where sugar substitutes
may be used in prewar recipes:
Custards.
Junkets.
Gelatin desserts, clear jellies,
sponges.
Frozen dishes ice cream, mousse.
Puddings, steamed cereal, tapioca.
Cookies, cake.
Fresh fruits with sirups.
Satisfactory results may be obtain
ed by making the following substi-
buttons, In place of cup of sugar
use l cup of honey or / 2-3 to cups
of corn sirup. approximately the
same sweetness is obtained.
Every cup of strip or honey fur
nishes a cup of liquid, therefore for
every cup of strip or honey that is
substituted for sugar reduce the

Qnince Jelly.


From the same fruit both a Jelly
and a preserve can be made. An
apple or two may be added to this
fruit If a preserve is desired, pare
the fruit--a thick pairing. Use the
parings for jelly. Remove seeds and
core. Cut the fruit in sections Pour
on water until you can see it at the
side of the pan. Now cook both
fruit and parings. When the fruit
is little soft drain off the juice into
the parings. Pour on the fruit a
little hot water. Add one-third as
much sugar as there is fruit. Now
cook very slowly until the fruit is
clear and the juice is very thick, like
jelly. Better seal in jars.
Now for the parings: Drain off the
juice into the jelly bag. Pour over
the parings little more hot water
and let them cook few minutes
more. Then turn them into the jelly
bag and squeeze out. Measure the
juices and boil about twelve minutes
and add three-quarters the amount
of sweetening one-half sugar and
one-half corn strip. Proceed as for
jellies. Make no second extraction.
A slight touch of cranberry juice
added to the ounce is fine.
