Tells of Weevils in Newberry

Keowee, Walhalla, Courier, 7th.
Rev. W. B. Aull and family re-
turned last week from trip to New
berry county, where they visited rel
atives. Mr.. Aull states that the con-
dition of the cotton crop in the CEN
trail part of the state is pitiable, the
boil weevil having literally taken the
crop. In several of the bolls that
Rev. Aull examined he found that
the weevils literally infested the en-
tire boil, "the whole family being
there, the adult, the grub, the "butter
fly" the egg, the worm-the bolls
being simply seething mass of wee
vii, embryonic and adult, and all in
termediate stages. This, he says, ap-
peared characteristic of the field he
was examining, and he presumed that
the field was not an exception to the
rule in that section.

MISS CHADWICK
BACK IN COMEDY
In "Made in Heaven" Starring Tom
Moore, Goldwyn Leading Gives
Splendid Performance

After appearing in one of the
heaviest productions of the year,
|"Godless Men," the Reginald Barker
production for Goldwyn, Helene
Chadwick gratified the vast numbers
who had seen her in Scratch My
Back" and other light comedies by
returning to her familiar type of role
lin a far more uproarious and delight
full way, in "Made in Heaven" the
new comedy in which she is playing
the lead opposite Toma Moore which
comes to the opera house Wednes-
day.
Miss Chadwick appears in the role
of Claudia Royce s'long on ancestors
but short on wealth" who rushes into
a marriage with an Irishman to es-
cape a millionaire, and then almost
immediately wishes she could rush out
again. But the Irish fireman thinks
differently and what with those an
cestors in her blood and the sham
rocks in his, they have a terrible
mix-up. But he wins in the end by
parading her through a kitchen all
white and nickel which would make
the worst extremist of the Feminist
movement forget The Cause and dive
back into happy housewfery.
The picture was directed by Victor
schertzinger, and the art designs
were made by Cedric Gibbons. An ex-
cellent cast, including Molly Malone,
Kate Lester, John Cossar and Free
imam Wood, support Mr.. Moore in ms

ARREST SOLDIERS
WHO QUIT MARCH
Military Officers in Columbia Getting
Stragglers
The State, Sth.

The State, Sth.
Liuet. Albert E. Rothermich Of the
Eleventh Infantry, city police and
detectives and rural police, last night
arrested a number Of stragglers and
alleged deserters from the regiment
who left the unit either on its march
from Camp Jackson or at camp near
Newberry, and lodged them in the
city Jail, according to the lieutenant
who came down from the camp at
Newbe1ry to round up all soldiers
who have left the regiment. Inc
search last night netted several prls-
oners, the officer said.
The general search begun last
night will be continued today and
until all stragglers have been appre-
hended and placed in jail pending
their return to the Eleventh infantry
on it's march. Some 80 or 40 men
have left the regiment, Lieutenant
Rothermich said, and he will Re here
unail these have been captured.
A reward of $50 is being offered
for the arrest and delivery of any de-
serter of the Eleventh, this reward
being payable to a civil officer or
civilian. Lieutenant Rothermich said
last night that men who had deserted
the marching column could save them
selves much trouble and expense by
surrendering to him in person at once
as such action would mitigate their
offense.
LIEUTENANT Rothermich is familiar
with Columbia and, being assisted
by the police, expects to round up
the stragglers without much trouble
and return them to the line of march.
He was formerly provost marsall OF
tine Fifth division and Of Camp Jack
son for the past year.
The 1,450 troops comprising the
regiment on the march are standing
the test we'll and are in fine condition,
Lieutenant Rothermich said Only a
few of the new men are quitting the
columns and the older heads are en-
joying the experience, he said.

FOX AND GAPPINS
TO PENITENTIARY
Confessed Slayers of Columbia
Chauffeur Transferred From
Charleston Thursday
Charleston American.

C. O. Fox and Jesse Gappins, the
mob. sought prisoners, are behind the
bars in the state penitentiary. The
two confessed slayers of William Bra
zell, Columbia chauffer, were quietly
removed from the Charleston county
Jail where they were lodged by Sher-
if Roof of Lexington county, on Sun
day, August IA, yesterday and taken
to S$Cofunibia on the O'Clock train
yesterday morning.
The following dispatch from Co
lumbia tells of their arrival at the
state prison:
C.. o. Fox and Jesse F. Gappins,
confessed slayers of young William
Bfazell, the Columbia taxi driver
whose murder on August 9, along
the Columbia-Augusta highway,
shocked the state and resulted in the
formation of MOB which for ten
days searched cities and jails, high
ways and trains, for three guilty men,
and who for three weeks now have
been in the Charleston Jail for safe
Keeping, were brought to Columbia
early Thursday morning and lodged
in the state penitentiary, where they
will Be held until the date Of their
trial next Monday. They were
brought to Columbia by two officers,
aboard train arriving here at seven
O'clock:
The transfer of the prisoners was
made without excitement, and not
even the newspapers knew of it. The
men were told by the officers when
they left Charleston that if they gave
trouble there would be trouble, but if
not, the officers proposed to protect
them. The men readily agreed not
to make trouble, and they appeared
very nervous all the way to Columbia,
fearing that there might be a mob in
reference. The officers had been
told to arrest any persons attempting
to interfere with the transfer of the
prisoners, and if any such interfering
persors should resist arrest, to shoot
to Kill.
State Constable T. A. Berley of
Columbia, and Chief Of Rural Police
]. D. Dunaway of Richlana county,
brought the men to the capital, and
sitting in the front of the coach that
brought the men was State Constable
Poppenheim of Charleston. All were
armed heavily. There was not the
slightest trouble, no one, except the
officials knowing of the trip. At the
station here the officers were met by
Sheriff. Heise and Deputy Sheriff
Thompson, Of Richland county.
To the officers Gappins told the en-
tire story Of the crime. He said that
S. J.. Kirby, who has been in the pen
'iitentiary since the killing Of BrazellE,
had planned the crime. He stated
also that Kirby had planned other
such affairs on previous occasions,
but these had "faHen through" This
story differed from Kirby's statement
the DAY the three were arrested, his
signed statement then being to the
effect that Fox and Gappins were the
guilty parties.
The. three men will be brought to
trial in Lexington next Monday.

SPIRIT OF CRITICISM
in LEAGUE ASSEMBLY 81
Fault Found With Number Of Agen
Gle. and Countries Including
United States

Geneva, Sept. s.-The council of
the league Of nations, the United
States, mandatory powers and coun-
tries that are continuing to arm cane
in for trenchant criticism in the first
days debate in the assembly Of the
league Of nations ON the work done
by the council of the league.
Hialar Branting of Sweden ac-
cused the council and secretariat OF
the league of partiality and extrava-
gance. Lord Robert Cecil, represent
ing South Africa, defended both the
coundil and the secretariat. Lord
Robert was very severe, however,
about the countries, which, he said,
according to statistics, are spending
20 per cent of their energies on arma-
ments and at the same time complain
ine of economic instability and bad
trade situation. He blamed the Unit
ed States for the delay in the addop-
tion of the ga" and "B" mandates,
and introduced resolution that these
terms be Immediately defined. Lord
Roberts address seemingly made q
great impression on the members OF
the assembly.
The committees continued their
work this afternoon. The councils
commission on amendments finished
its labor by deciding not to recon-
mend the adoption of an amendment
by Charles J. Doherty, delegate from
Canada, eliminating Article 10 from
the covenant of the league of ma
tions. At the same time was passet
an interpretative- resolution intende<
to meet American objectives to th'
clause.
