Griffith, alias J. R. Sis trunk, was under the constant espoln age of Detective Wiggins of the Thiel Agency, all day long in Anderson yes terday and unless some financia' as sistance comes from Columbia today Mr. Wiggins will swear out a warrant for the young man at the instigation of the Hotel Chlquola, and the youth will be placed in jail. It ls said that Griffith came to An derson some several months ago and registered at the hotel under his pro per name, He remained In town sever al days, with no visible occupation or means of support, and when he got ready to leave he paid his bill with a check on a Columbia bank. The check amounted to SS and was accepted by the hotel but when it was sent to Co lumbia it was returned stamped "no funds." Since that time the hotel clerks have had their eyes open for their much-desired visitor and Tues day night he blew into town. Going straight to the Chlquola, he register ed under the name of J. R. Slstrunk, Jr. The minute be entered the place he was recognized by the clerk and Detective Wiggins was summoned. Mr. Wiggins took charge of the case and the young man was notified of the lix he had gotten into. All day yesterday was spent in com municating with Columbia. The young man is a son of Dr. L. A. Griffith, may or of Columbia, and a grandson of Col. D. J. Griffith, superintendent of the penientiary. Mr. Wiggins :'.formed them last night that he would have to have the money to pay up the check and also to pay the bill incurred on this visit by the young man or he would be forced to place the youth in Jail this morning. Whether or not the money will come is uncertain, as it is reported that Griffith has been in trouble before. It is said that he bas given worthless chocks on previous occasions and his had a very atomy career, during which he served a term of enlistment in the United States navy. Reports have it that there is also another check in Anderson, issued bv the same man, and that this too will have to be attended to before the of ficers drop the case-.

Nov. 4.-No word came today from the British .hips that engaged the German squadron oif Coronel Sunday, and the British pide of the story is yet to be told. According to German accounts, their armored cruisers Scharnhorst and Gnelsenau and light cruisers Nurn burg, Leipzig and Bremen escaped un scathed, while the British cruiser Monmouth was Bunk, the cruiser Good Hope 'put out of action and the crui ser Glasgow, with the transport On tario sent scurrying for shelter in the neutral port of Tnlcahuano, where they are bottled up by the Leipzig and Bremen. It ls certain the Scharnhorst, Gnels ennu and Nurnburg arrived safely at Valparaiso, though somewhat the worse for their encounter with the Britishers. One report is that thc Glasgow, bad ly damaged, arrived in Coronel Bal, while the Ontario escaped to Puerto MontL Despite the fact thr'. the British had only three fighting ships against dive, the decisive British defeat ap pears to have produced a profound im pression. The battle took place in a heavy sea. Th - Germans oponed Are at 10 kilometers. For a time the Brit ish shots fell Bhort. but later their guns H cored a few bits. The casualties among the German crews were said to consist of some half dozen wounded. The German fire is described as having been excellent, though at the long range lt required four hundred hits to put the British ers out of the fight. Thc Scharnhorst and Gnelsenau came from Australia, calling on Oc tober 14 at Baster Island whe re they took on large quantities of provisions, j British mail steamers in Chilean wa ters are sailing under protection of Chilean torpedo boat destroyers. j The German cruisers Scharnhorst, | Gnelsenau and Nurnburg, which, with the Leipzic and Bremen, defeated the British cruisers Monmouth, Good Hope and Glasgow and the transport Otran to Sunday afternoon off the Chilean Island ot St. Maria, were still in the harbor today, coaling and provision ing in preparation for steaming away later. It is supposed they will relieve the Leipzig and Bremen,-which have the Glasgow and Otranto bottled up in Talcahuano.

To thoroughly clean milk uten sils they first should be rlused with cold water to remove all particles of milk. Do not allow the cows to dry up during the latter part of the summer, ns this nccesoltatcs keeping them through winter, giving n Hinnller flow of milk thnu they should. A good pasture makes a brim* lng milk juill, and silo makes pos sible good wluter pasture. The first cold rains are hard on thc cows, and they should be kept in tho barn in such weather. THE PRODUCTION OF CLEAN, SAFE MILK [Prepare, by dalry division. United States department ot agriculture.] Persons engaged in the production of milk and consum?is interested In pro curing clean, safe milk will bo inter ested in the factors for producing the same as outlined by the United States department of agriculture in a recent farmers' bulletin (No. 602), entitled "Production of Clean Milk." The es sential factors are outlined ns follows: Clean, healthy cows kept in clean, light, well ventilated stables. Stables BO constructed ?a to be easily cleaned. A clean, weU drained barnyard. Clean utensils, thoroughly sterilized. Clean, healthy mUkars that milk with <Sry hands. A small top mUklng pall. Immediate cooling of the milk to CO de crees F. or lower. Storage of milk at a low temperature j un tu delivered. A separat? house for handling the milk. An abundant supply ot pure water. Bacteria, according to the bulletin, find their way into the milk from vnri ous sources. Soino may come from the j udder itself, where.they grow in the milk cisterns and ducts. The greater number, however, come from the dust of the air, the dirt from the udder and | flanks, from the milker and from un clean utensils.
