3 MEN HELD on AIKEN CHARGE
Magistrate Fixes Bonds for Men Al.
legged to Have Fleeced Banks.

Aiken, Jan 21.-The hearing before
Magistrate Raborn of the trio of men
and one woman arrested in Augusta
last Sunday morning, charged with
duping three Aiken banks through
the passage Of forged checks, was con-
cluded this morning. Mrs. Sam Pad
gett, who has been held with her hus-
band and Milton Lyles, and w. c.
Westbury, was given her freedom.
Padgett and Westbury, however,
were held under bond for appearance
before the grand jury on charges of
conspiracy.
Yesterday Lyles was ordered held
under heavy bond, Magistrate Raborn
this morning fixed bond for Lyles at
$4,000, this being $1,000 in each of
the cases of alleged forgery, or "ut-
tering a forged instrument. Pad
gett's bond has been fixed at $500
and Westbury's at $1,000. Newberry
county officials also fixed the bond Of
Westbury at $4,000 for appearance
before the grand jury of that county
on two charges of forgery.
The preliminary hearing was con-
cluded this morning with the testi-
mony of Mrs. Walter Duncan, who
was the only witness to appear. Mrs.
Duncan testified that one day last
week, day or two before the banks
were feeced, she saw Padgett in
Aiken together with two other men.
The two had stopped in front of the
Aiken Standard ofice and their con-
duct attracted her attention. When
Mrs. Duncan left the stand, Magis-
trate Raborn announced that he had
heard sufficient testimony and direct
d the attorneys to proceed with argu-
ments as to the amount Of bonds to
be assessed.

Hitting Henry.

They had had little tif-only
one of these storms that will burst
upon domestic life when the matri-
monial sun suffers from sunspots.
He sat with his pipe and his book,
while his wife turned three-year-
old dress. The man laid down his
book to light his fourth pipeful Of
tobacco. His wife laid down her
sewing, turned to him and said:
Henry, when you proposed to me
you said that you were not worthy
to be the dust under my shoes"
"Well," snapped Henry, you're
not going to throw that in my face
are you?"
"No," she answered, "I'm going to
give you credit for these words.
Whatever else you were, Henry, you
spoke the truth"

Uncle Nose had an affection for his

upon encountering the old man after

HOUSE PASSES DYER MEASURE
Anti-Lynching Bill Sent to the Senate.
Fight by Democrats.

Washington, Jan. 26.-The house
today declared itself in favor OF the
federal government exerting its au-
thority in an effort to stamp out
lynching, passing by vote of 2SO
to 119 the Dyer anti-lynching bill.
Seventeen Republicans Joined 1O2
Democrats in voting in the opposi-
ton, while eight Democrats and one
Socialist, London of New York, voted
with 231 Republicans in favor of the
measure.
The bill provides life imprison-
ment or lesser penalties for persons
who participate in lynchings and for
state, county and municipal officials,
who fail through negligence to pre-
vent them. The measure also stipu-
lates that the county in which mobs
form or kill anyone shall forfeit
$4,000 to the family of the victim.
Democratic opponents of the bill,
defeated in attempts to recommit it
to the judiciary committee and to
strike out the enacting clauses, made
no concerted effort to have amend
ment adopted. They declared 1.-The
vicious principle of the bill'' could
not be changed by amendments but
expressed confidence that the meas
ure never would receive senate ap-
proval.
Except for a few perfecting amend
ments offered by Chairman Volstead
of the judiciary committee, amend
ments proposed by individuals were
rejected. One by Representative
French, Republican, of Idaho, would
have eliminated the provision requir-
ing counties to forfeit $4,000 to fam
lilies of mob victims.
One committee amendment not ap-
proved removed from the bill the re-
uuirement that couties through
which a mob passed should pay a
$4,000 penalty. Another one &C
cepted defined a mob as three or
more persons acting together to take
human life illegally. The bill origi-
nally defined a mob as five or more
persons acting together.
During debate, which continued
Internationally for month, oppo-
nents of the measure declared it
would be an unconstitutional inva-
sion of state rights and would have
a tendency to increase rather than
decrease lynchings. They also
charged that Republicans were sup
porting the proposal for political
reasons.
Proponents, however, contended
that states, especially in the SOUTH
had failed to handle the situation
and that to afford all races protec-
ton guaranteed them under the fed
eraI constitution it was necessary for
the federal government to take a
hand.
