asked the attorney generals Office for
advice. Mr.. Daniel advised that only
"a few cases could be covered by such
stay order of circuit Judge and
that the Mittle case was not one of
these. He said the order of Judge
Mauldin was apparently null and
void. Mr.. Danield also advised the
governor that it was up to him to see
that the sentence against Mittle was
executed. The chief magistrate lost
no time and had Sheriff r. Fulton
Dukes and state constable in Green
vile before daybreak today. The Of

conference with the governor he
was placed in the penitentiary.
The action today is expected to
bring on big fight, as attorneys for
Mittle claim that an attempt is being
made to interfere with the judiciary.
1t is expected that efforts will be
made to have Mittle released. In his
petition for the stay order, Mittle
says he intends to appeal to the Unit

Columbia, Aug. 14.-E. N. Mittle,
former Greenville merchant, who was
convicted Of killing j. H. Patterson,
civil engineer, in Orangeburg coun-
ty nearly a year and half ago, was
arrested in Greenville this morning
upon orders of Governor Harvey and
brought to Columbia, where he was
placed in the penitentiary late this
afternoon.
The arrest of Mittle followed the
granting of a 90-day stay-over by
Judge T. j. Mauldin last week, So
licitor Hydrick and John M. Daniel,
the assistant attorney general, both
holding that a stay order was a null
lity, as it attempted to set aside an
order of the supreme court.
The supreme court recently denied
Mittle's petition for a rehearing and
ordered the remittury sent down,
which was done.
Mittle was then supposed to be
placed in prison to start his sentence,
it was said today, but nothing was
done until copy of the 90-day stay
order was served upon Solicitor Hy-

Richmond, she did practical WORK
with the Associated Charities of tha.

operations Of that organization, and
related some Of her experiences, both
pathetic and amusing, among the
people with whom she worked.
She stressed the great advantage
Of having an associated charities or
ganiZaIion. In Richmond they en-
lloy Il number of we'll trained work
ers, and they do not merely stop with
supplying the immediate needs of tn
applicants for help, but also make
thorough research as to the cause OF
the poverty or whatever the troubip
may be. After succeeding in doing
so, they try to remove the cause.
Sometimes it is from lack of cduca-
ton, sometimes from drunkenness,
fecblemindcdncSs, etc.
They do not give money to those

used; but they suply groceries, cloth
ing or medicine, as the case may re-
quirc. \ city doctor is sent to those
in need Of medical attention, and
some are sent to clinics to be ex-
amined for fceblemindedness or in

donate clothing which is still in good
condition. This is stored away to b.
used when needed.
