nIr. Randolph was on the point of trying to persuade himself that he was giving way to the too constant strain rather than to any defect in his phil osophy of the easiness of wealth when an excited and hatless elevator boy rushed up and said:
 Here, yousel Mr. Embonpoint Mor- gums car has froze. Ring your or fire alarm"
 Mir Randolph almost knocked over a fare that was attempting to get aside.
 "Engagedw he growled, as he stopped to turn her over"
 Five minutes later, his cab was car rying, in the persons of MT. Morgum, abov> mentioned, and another, the pc tent Nl pivots of very dght-vested in- terests to the tune of twelve billion dollars. It may be thought that it was Slim Hervey's intention to wait this precious pair to some bosky retreat, cover them with leaves, and hold them for ransom, but such was not the casa. He desired nothing from these tive potentates among c Mce sS fm0s giants beyond what might c~ms to hAm through his ever-open speaking slot.
 This is all he heard:
 "Iewtsfader is getting kAm@ ef fr~eh."

 Good idea! Friday 1t is." .
 Not another word. but. as 1t hap pened, 1t was enough to start Mir. Ran dolph honking uptown the moment he had dropped his laconic fares at their next board meeting. No one had to tell him who Lewisfader, was; he had been to college with that financier's son, and if there was one thing above all others that said offspring was good at, it was blowing his fathers horn. Lewisfader was this and Lewisfader was that, but principally and especial ly he was the central rock in the money maelstrom known to the stock market as "Amal. I. s. & o." which had only lately dared to swell it's portentous belly in the company of the most de- veloped and vicious saurians of the financial world.
 All the way uptown, Mir. Randolph's face was concentrated In the nearest approach to a frown of which 1t was capable. He was not, however, weigh tng the substance of what he had heard this way and that, for the simple req son that the moment the one word, 'Tewisfader" had rrGched his ears, he

had seen the great light and grasped his hunch beyond any thought of look ing back. That part of 1t was settled; what worried him now was the amount of ways and means In his pocket. By thinking very hard, he added up his capital without bringing 1t forth to the light of day. The exact sum was six weight dollars and fifty cents.
 No sooner had he passed the test in mental arithmetic than he drew up a little beyond the front door of the Rock ct club. He started to leave his cab, paused, considered, and then deliber- ately lowered the flag. As he entered the lobby. of the club, four scandalized fronts leaped to bar his way. They asked him a variety of biting ques- tions: Did he think it was a night lunchwagonf Which chambermaid was he calling on7 Was he looking for Mills hotelf
 "Herberti" roared Mir. Randolph.
 The functiOnary named, head door man for the Rocket club since first it started on Its appropriately meteoric career, leaped from his digniied seat on the somnolent side lines and stared wide eyed at the servile apparihon that had dared shout the open sesame to that invjnlate portal.

FLORIDA SHERIFF
{ THWARTS CROWD
Quick Thinking Probably Saves
Prisoner-Negro in Tampa
Jail-Polk County Officer
Swears in Members of
Mob as his Deputies

Tampa, Fla, April IA force of
armed guards was placed within the
Hillsborough county Jail tonight as
a precaution against the possibility
of an effort being made by the mob
to take Wilmer Collins, negro,
brought here today from Polk Coun-
ty, who is charged with attempted
attack of six white women at Bar
tow Monday night.
The presence here of consider
able number of Polk county men,
who arrived in automobiles during
the afternoon and reports of threats
to "get" Collins led Sheriff W. C..
Spencer to prepare for any eventu-
ality.
Sheriff John Logan of Polk coun-
ty prevented a lynehing soon after
Collins was captured near Lakeland
this morning. The negro was taken
first to Lakeland and the sheriff and
three deputies started with him
from there in an automobile for
Bartow. About 100 men overlook
the sheriff's party in the country.
Hating his car Sheriff Logan faced
the mob.
"Gentlemen," he said, "there will
be no trouble. I know every man
among you. I swear each and every
one of you in as deputy sheriff. 1t
is your duty now to escort with me
this prisoner to the jail at Barlow"
The mob was taken by surprise
and stood by while the sheriff placed
the negro in a faster car than his
own and placing three deputies in
car, told them to drive right through
Barlow and head for Tampa. They
soon outran the other cars and
brought the prisoner safely to this
city.
Collinse was a "trusty" in the
county Jail at Barlow, serving SEN
tence for a minor offense. He was
sent on errand Monday and entered
a house and attempted to attack a
girl. Her screams frightened him
away, and while he was being sought
he went to five other houses with
the same intent. He was captured,
but escaped while a mob was taking
him into the country.

CHANGES IN THE E5
EXTENSION FORCE

Clemson College, April 5.-The
following changes in the working
force of the Extension Service have
been announced by Assistant Direc-
tor D. W. Watkins.
L. C. Madison has been appointed
county agent for Williamsburg
County with headquarters at Kings
tree. He began his duties March 20.
Mr.. Madison was formerly live
stock specialist of the Extension
Service at Clemson College and has
also served both before and after
coming to Clemson with the Bureau
of Animal Industry, United States
Department of Agriculture. During
the last year he has been a special
field agent with the American Po-
land China Record Association. His
varied experience, especially in ami
NAL huSbandry work, should make
him an excellent agent for Williams
burg County in view of the live
stock development in that section.
L. S. Wolfe has been appointed
county agent for Orangeburg Coun-
ty with headquarters at Orangeburg
and began work on April 1. He takes
the place of W. T. Kyzer, who re-
signed recently to become secretary

Wolfe is a graduate of Clemson Col
lege, was county agent in Orange
burg County for number Of years

An Illinois farmer found pearl
between the toes of hog recently.
The gem was sold for $500 recently
to a local jeweler. The unusual find
is explained by the, fact that the
farmer had been feeding his swine

from clam diggers.

HITCH DEVELOPS
IN BRITISH STRIKE
Day Of Great Excitement in Low
don-Pump Men Still Idle

London, April IA; day of great
excitment which looked as though it
were leading to amicable negotia-
tions to find an issue to the wage
dispute in the coal crisis, closed with
still another hitch owing to insist
ence on the part of the government
that resumption of pumping opera
tions at the mines must be prelimi-
nary to any negotiations. The first
meeting Of the government with the
miners and mine owners had been
set for II o'clock tomorrow morn
ing at the board of trade and mean
while all question of action for the
triple alliance had been temporarily
suspended. Then the prime minister
made the announcement in the
house of commons that the miners
federation had informed him that it
was unable to see it's way clear to in
.struct the pump men to resume work
during the negotiations. Mr.. Lloyd
George added that the negotiations
could not proceed unless this OBJ
-stacle was, overcome.
Whether the premier's statement
will permanently block negotiations
is not quite certain. Frank Hodges,
one Of the leaders of the miners, re-
ferring to the matter tonight, said
he did not regard the question of
negotiations as hopeless. Another
favorable indication is that the pre-
mier has written to the miners exc
cutive asking them to meet him ear
ly tomorrow morning at his Down.
ing street residence.
Mr.. Hodges, who was seen before
this request, was known, expressed
the opinion that such condition as
requiring the pump men to resume
was quite necessary and ought not
to bar negotiations. He added that
the miners executives would meet
at 10 o'clock in the morning to con-
n slider the situation and strong hopes
are expressed that these preliminary
discussions may enable the board of
trade meeting to proceed as fixed.
The general feeling is that the
trouble about pumping is due to sus-
picions harbored by both sides, but
that it is not serious enough to
prove a permanent obstruction to
negotiations. There is no cessation
of the precautionary measures
taken by the government, however,
or by the miners, transport workers
and other labor bodies to be pre-
pared for all emergencies.
The various conferences of the
parties concerned are being retain
ed in suspended animation and
preparations are being continued To-
cally for any needful steps should
the proposed negotiations break
down. It is assumed that Lord Der
by's suggestion, which had already
been. made by Alfred Bigland,
Coalition Unionist from Birkhead,
carried great weight from the gov
ernment and probably induced the
offer to negotiate:

MAN CONFESSES
PART IN MURDER
Says He and Another Killed Elwell.
Woman Caused Crime.

Buffalo, N. Y, April Troy
Harris, arrested here this evening
on a charge of forgery, signed a
statement to the effect that he and
anoher NJ ian killed Joseph B. Elwell
in New York last June.
Harris says that he and friend
William Dunklin, were accosted on
the street by a chauffer they knew
who told them he had a woman pas
senger who might pay them well for
a job. They got in and drove about
with the woman, who said her name
was Mrs. Fairchild and promised
them $4,000 each to kill Elwell. She
gave them $50 each an account and
! the next morning met them on West
Seventieh street where she let them
in with key. Harris alleges Dunkin
shot Elwell. The woman, he said,
gave them $3.50 each and promised
ther est Of the money later. Harris
says he never got any more and sus-
poets his pal "double crossed" him.
He fled the city when the tragedy
excited such widespread interest.
The man had been staying at ho-
tie here with his wife since Tuesday.
An acquaintenance tipped the To-
cal police off that he was wanted in
St. GATHERINGS, Ont, for alleged
forgery and he was arrested. AS he
was being brought into the station
he said: "That check thing was all
settled. I know what you want me
for. It is the Elwen murder"
= New York, April Police head
quarters. here was notified tonight
of the Arrest of Roy Harris in Buffalo
and his alleged confession that he
took part in the murder Of Joseph
B. Elwell here last June, but official
comment was withheld pending the
receipt of further details.
So far as is known the name of
"Mrs. Fairchild" mentioned in the
alleged confession, has never been
brought into the case before.
From outward appearances the
murder Of Elwell has remained to
date an impentrable mystery.
The night of June 10, 1920, El-
well attended a dinner party in a
large hotel with several friends and
after went with them to a midnight
roof garden show, where they re-
manned until 1 80 a. m. Members of
the dinner party told police Elwell
then bid them "good night" and
started to walk home.
