of the captain, to throw off the cars.
The mate was working as one of the
men, and with him was Benjamin Cor

cars from the two tracks on the port

and as car charged into that space

1t was a fiat car laden with steel
beams. AT Corvet's command, the crew
ranged themselves beside 1t with bars.
The bow of the ferry rose to some
great wave and, with cry to the men,
Corvet pulled the pin. The others
thrust with their bars and the car slid
down the sloping track; and Corvet,
caught by some lashing of the beams,
came with it. Alan leaped upon 1t and,
catching Corvet, freed him and flung
him down to the deck, and dropped
with him. A cheer rose as the car
cleared the fantail, dove and disap-
peared.
Alan clambered to his feet. Corvet
already was back among the cars
again. shouting orders; the mate and

CHAPTER XVI
"He Killed Your Father"

Alan ran aft along the starhoard
side, catching at the rail as the deck
tilted; the sounds within the hull and
the tremors following each sound
came to him more distinctly ms he ad-
vanced. Taking the shortest way to
the car deck, he turned into the cabins
to reach the passengers companion
way. The noises from the car deck, no
longer muffled by the cabins. changed
and resounded in terrible tumult; with
the clang and rumble of metal rose
shouts and rOars of men.
To liberate and throw overheard
heavily loaded cars from an endan-
gered ship was so desperate an under
taking and so certain to cost life that
men attempted 1t only in final eXtreml-
ties, when the ship must be lightened
at any cost. Alan had never seen the
effect of such an attempt, but he had
heard of 1t as the fear which sat nj
ways on the hearts of the men who
navigate the ferries-the cars loose on
rolling, lurching ship! He was going
to that now. The car deck was pitch
ing, swaying slope; the cars nearest
him were still upon their tracks. but
they tilted and swayed ugllly from side
to side; the jacks were gone from un-
der them; the next cars already were
hurled from the rails, their wheels
screaming on the steel deck. changing

THE COTTON CAR.

Try as an editor may, it is i'm
possible not to write about Henry
Ford. Perhaps Henry rs an even
better publicity man than he is ar
inventor, manufacturer, scientist,
statesman, editor, fnancier and
.philanthropist. Be that as it, may,
it is necessary to chronicle the fact
that the fivver king is working, in
his Detroit research laboratory, on
plan to make automobiles-as
he calls tnem-out of cotton.
There are other ingredients in
the formula, prominent among
them being glue and formaldehyde.
All Of these commend themselves
to anyone who has ever operated
one Of Henry's celebrated vehicles.
Formaldehyde suggests the odor Of
the species, and glue the way they
are put together, and cotton some
Of their other characteristics. If
this be free advertising, let him
make the most Of it. But the pro-
,dact expected Of this novel COM
bination may challenge serious at
tentioi, one Of these days
Lfghtness is the word in modern
automobiles, and. Henry is going
m for lightness. If he can get the
necessary strength, too, out Of the
stuff he is experimenting with,
there may result a car that an able
bodied citizen can not only ride
around in with incredible economy
but can pick up and carry around
with him when he gets down, town,
thereby dexterously foiling car
thieves.
y The" idea is to stamp automobile
parts out Of this composition as Il
housewife stamps doughnuts. That
idea in itself is richly suggestive.
our only fear is that the cars,
|, unlike some cooks doughnuts, will
be too light. They may have to be
bailasted-unless they are to be
fitted with wings, for fight.

The Herald believes the people

Ina should Rnow that there is to

OF the state in such a way as to un-
dermine. if not actually destroy,

opposing the present law threatens

ways. 1t would throw the funds
for the maintenance of all roads
back into the hands of the various
county supervisors, and such a
thing as State highways will pass
out Of existence.
The upper part of South Caro-
lima has invested millions of dollars
in top-soil roads, and. as we OF
this part of the State know, the
life of these roads depends abso-
iutely upon systematic maintenance
by some central authority with
ample funds: We have roads in
the upper part Of this State that
have been maintained under the
present law. We know they
have been maintained and that
there are today more than q
thousand miles of such roads
something the State has never had
before in all its history, in the
Piedmont, over which we ma!
drive even today after weeks OF
rain and snow with comfort. Those
roads exist because of State main

Greatly needed is new dornll-
tory to prevent the present over
crowding occasioned by this large
attendance. Clemson's growth and
usefulness to South Carolina is be-
ing curtailed by a lack Of sufficient
facilities, especially dormitories and
buildings for teaching. With the
same overhead organization We
could handle 1900 students as we'll
as 900, and the cost per capita
would be greatly reduced. 1t would
'be easy TO increase to 1900 stu

wears if we only had the necessary
additional dormitorieS and accom-
panying facilities for teaching, and
a comparatively small increase IN
our maintenance fund. Our plant
for handling even our present en-
rollment is incomplete and in some
essential respects inadequate.
The following is an estimate OF
the cost of additional building and
operating expense for increased at

mendations Of the experts to the

nothing left for the general assem-
bly of this state to do but to- get

under date Of January y, writes
as follows:
My Dear Williams: 3
referring to your letter in res
gard to the Catawba Indians, viii
say that / noticed the activities
you mention Of Senator Dial and
Congressman Fuimer about this,
and I was of the opinion that they
would find out that there was MOTH
ing in the claim. I took the matter
up Immediately when I-came to-
congress, but felt sure that eheres
must be some explanation, or our
congressman would have long
since had the government take
charge of these Indians. It was;
gone into very fully years ago. I.
/ think in Hemphin's day, and the:
] findings were very clearly set1orth,
and the following is the explana-
ton: All other Indians, at least IN
the. south, dealt directly with the
/! national government, surrendered
their lands to the national. govern
! ment, in consequence of the prom
ise Of support, hence the national
government takes care Of them.
The Catawbas, on ne other hand,
made their treaty with the state
! Of South Carolina and surrender
/ ed all land which they clained ex-
cept the present reservation yshich'
they have in consideration of
South Cardinals contract to take;
care Of them. Hence the liability
is. the states and not the national;
governments, and your Uncle Sam
has steadfastly and finally put his
! foot down that the Catawbas have
no claim against the national gov
eminent and that none will be;
recognized.
From the above it appears that.
there is nothing left for the state

Yet sit has been explained in scme
quarters that the real reason for

was that Austrial and New zea-
land wanted such protection, but
were sensitive about asking for it

objection to that as there has been
