the civil war as a first lieutenant of
the field artillery. He graduated
from the Military Academy of South
Carolina in the first year of the war
and joined the South Carolina troops
in December of 1860. After the or
ganization of the. Confederate States
of America he was transferred into
its service, and fought through the
war, surrendering with Johnson's
army in North Carolina in April of
1866.
After the war Judge Simkins took
up the study of law and was admit

law at Monticello, Fla, from 1870 to
1878. In the latter year he removed
to Corsicana, Texas where he con-
tinued the practice of law until 1899,
when he accepted professorship in
law at the University of Texas. He
has continued in, this work ever since.

FIRED FIRST SHOT
IN OUR WAR.
Judge Simkins for Years Has Been
in the Law Faculty of the
University of Texas.

(From New York Evening World.)
Austin, TeXas.-Judge W. S. Sim
kins, who fired the first shot in the
civil war, has been member of the
law faculty of the University of
Texas since 1899. He is known
throughout the south as an authority
on certain phases of the law. He has
published several books that are
familiar to lawyers throughout the
country. 1t was on Feruary 10, 1861
just SO years ago, that he fired the
first shot in the great conflict. 1t was
on the anniversary of this memorable
day that Judge Simkins indulged in
"reminiscences of the historic incident.
He said:
I'm December of 1860 South Caro-
lima had just seeded from the Union.
and Colonel Anderson, of the United
States army, was in charge of the
federal troops at the government post
of Fort Moultrie. Goevrnor Pickens,
Of South Carolina, made a demand of
him for the surrender of the fort to
the state. The fort was in Charles
ton harbor on Sullivan's Island, and
was easily accessible from the land
side. Colonel Anderson, fearing the
fort would be taken from the land
side, at night secretly transferred his
whole force to Fort Sumter. This
was move for greater safety, for
Fort Sumter was situated good
ways from the mainland and was en-
tirely surrounded by water.
"In the meantime South Carolina
had collected her army with view
toward driving out Colonel Anderson,
and his troops. About the first of
February, 1861, the United States
government tried to send men and
provisions to reinforce Anderson, SC
that he could stand siege. Men and
provisions were sent from New York
harbor by the steamer Star of the
West. On February 10, 1861, the
Star of the West attempted to enter
the harbor and make the channel to
the fort
81 was 18 years of age at this time
and member Of the cadet corps of
the Military Academy of South Caro-
lima. The men of this cadet corps
were the only ones who could handle
the big guns commanding the harbor.
We were sent down to Murray's Is
land on the south side Of Fort Sum-
ter in order to protect the channel
into the port Of Charleston and pre-
vent aid being brought to Fort sum-
ter. We built up strnog Notifications
and mounted battery of four big
guns which commanded the channel.
"On the morning of Feruary 10,
1861, / was on post as q sentry pac-
ing back and forth along tho fortifi-
cations we had thrown up. In the
early dawn 1 spied the masts of the
Star of the West as she made her
way toward the channel. She was
clearly outlined against the red sky
Of the early dawn. / called to the
sergeant on guard and the men were
soon mustered out. I was relieved of
sentry duty and was placed as gun
ner on the No. gun of the battery.
The Star Of the West steamed into
the channel. AS she got opposite my
gun / opened fire. Soon the others

Vancouver, e. c.. Dec. 30.-Several.
Canadian oil prospectors are
considering using airplanes to fly
600 miles into the snowbound new oil
fields near Fort Norman. northeast OF
here, and stake their claims in ead-
vance Of the stampede expected over
the trails to Norman in the spring.
All attempts to go overland into
the Fort Norman country. during the
winter. have been blocked by royal
Canadian mounted police who are
holding back, scores OF prospectors at
the Peace River crossing. The pros.
pectors will be allowed to strike for
the district when the ice leaves the.
in the spring.
According to Major c.. MacLaurin,
superintendent Of the Jericho air
OF the dominion OF Canada air
board. 1t would be possible to fly from
the coast to the oil fields and return
in one day. The plane would be out
fitted on the coast near Fort Norman
and would soa across the white
mountain ranges which cannot now
be crossed on foot.
The plane, Major MacLaurin thinks,
could be equipped with runners, by
means Of which landings. icould be
made onrthec ice Of rivers and lakes
which abound.near Fort Norman,
About twenty claims were stakedli in
the district before the police closed
the area last autumn and it lis said
some ofsthe most promising claims
are yet to be-. ss
