Columbia, Jan. rs. - Crime in

40 per cent over 1920. according. to
the annual crime statistics submit
led by Attorney General Wolfe in his
annual report, laid on the desks OF
the members Of the General Assem-

crimes Cor when indictments were
thought by the fourteen solicitors of
the State in the Circuit Courts for
1921 was 3,719. The total number
Of indictments for 1920 was 2,64O.
or the total number OF cases tried
in Circuit Courts last year 2,664 do
PENDANTS were found guilty. This
compared with 1883 who were con

542 found mot guilty" as compared
with 353 the year before. In 1921
there were 513 cases nolle pressed
or discontinued as compared with
800 the year before.
There were in South Carolina last
year 238 cases in Circuit Courts in
which murder was charged. or these
there were 81 convictions. The pre-
ponderance OF crime, however, was
stealing-larceny, forgery and burg
larry cases grouped together far out
numbering other crimes.

BOIL WEEVII,S CAN LIVE IN ICE.
But This Fact Does Not Mean Any
thing in Particular.
(Clenison Bulletin.)

Is 1t true that the boil weevll has
been placed between two blocks of
ice and was found to be alive after
all the ice had melted? This Is q
question asked frequently Of Prof. A.
F. Conrad, entomologist, and an au-
thority on boil weevil matters. Prof.
Conradis answer to recent inqui-
rer should be Of interest and infor-
nation to all, as it throws real light
on the matter:
The Answer.
That Is very likely true. Another
fad is to bore a hole in block of
ice, in which a boil weevil Is then
hermetically sealed for "a hours.
Why should the experimentor be sur
prised that the beetle is still alive?
Melting ice has a temperature Of
approximately 80 degrees Fahren-
heit, and a boil weevil sealed wllhin
or between ice experiences no radia-
ton or evaporation, and is, there
fore, not in the least affected by
weather changes.
Partridges, rabbits and other small
game frequently seek shelter under
the snow in cold winter weather. Ice
foes and snow drifts are not intro
quently resorted to by man in the
North for temporary shelter in cold
and stormy weather.
We have successfully kept weevils
and other insects In brine chambers
and ice boxes under dry atmospheric
conditions, but we have never sue
ceeded in keeping them for prolonged
periods in ice boxes, unprotected
against moisture. The weevil, like
people, responds much more easily
to radical changes in cool weather
than to uniform conditions that OBJ
tain in an ice box.
No Practical Bearing on Control.
Putting the weevil in block Of
ice Is moro than 20 years old. 1t
was done in Texas when the weevil
first arrived, and as the weeyll mi
grated eastward, this practice con-
tinued to be one OF the fads in newly
infested territory year after year.
7 he test has no practical value what
ever, as there Is no semblance to the
natural .hangeable conditions that
obtain in the open.

Many good judges look for a re-

Wet-Dry Outcome Mixed

Illinois and Ohio voters were ask

laws. In New Jersey the rival can

Ohio and California went dry. All

In the rest of the states and dis
tricts the issue was not so sharply

elected to Congress; in others drys.
Both vets and drys claim to have
gained congressional votes. 1t is
not likely to be known just which
side is right-for there is uncertain
ty concerning the views Of the new
law-makers-until the question
comes up and ballots are cast.
Congressman Britten of Illinois
says he will introduce another bill
soon for the soldiers bonus, to be
paid for by means of a tax On beer
and wine.
The vets do not propose the re-
turn of the stronger drinks or of
the saloon. They do advocate leg
alizing beer and wine, on the ground
that they are not Intoxicating ex-
cept in larger quantities than any

In thai there were Democratic

in the present Congress the Re-

less independent group. The Re-

Neither SADIE Seems to Suit
In 1920 the voters gave the Re-

Previously Congress, as we'll Is the

past two years, have improved con-
ditions much.
On the strength OF the latest re-
suit Democratic politicians claim a
great victory. Republican politi-
clans say they cant see that they've
suffered a serious defeat.
But disinterested observers ex-
press the opinion that neither party

happened.

that lawmakers who voted for and

Near East Horizon Darker
The situation in Turkey is strain
ed afresh by a demand from Renal
Pasha that the allies surrender con-
troll of Constantinople to him.
This was the Turkish capital but
the allies gained possession of it at
the end of the World War. Kemal
now insists on having it back by
virtue of Turkeys victory over the
Greeks. The protocol. to which the
allies also were parties, ending this
struggle, did indeed provide for this
transfer of the city: but a protocol
is only a provisional agreement. and
the allies say they intesd to remain
in charge until a definite treaty is
signed.
With Renal, on one side. order
ing the allied troops out. and with
the allied troops, on the other hand,
refusing to go, conditions are SO
tense that many foreigners already
are fleeing.
