LAW DEPARTMENT M. R. Reese, Editor On Wednesday night the case of the State vs John King was tried before a jury; Prof. Rucker and Mr. Symmes acting as jud ges. The defendant, John King, was tried for the murder of a Mr. Brinsley. It was alleged that the defendant set a trap gun in his store so that when a burglar or intruder raised the window the gun would fire and that Brinsley came to his death by the acts of the defendant in this case and that King- was thereby guilty of the murder of Brinsley. After three witnesses were examined, one of whom was the defendant himself, and the counsel made their "Web ster-Shakespeare" orations to the jury, and they had been in structed on the law applicable to the case, they then retired and after a very short deliberation found a verdict of manslaughter. Attorneys Carey and Curtis represented the State, while Smiit and Passa gue appeared for the defendant. They handled the case very successfully and each one took his part even if it wasn't anything more than hold down his seat. DR. WHITE SPEAKS BEFORE Y. M. C. A. "The Secret of Success" Was Subject of the Evening. "The secret of Success" was the topic of Dr. White's lecture to the Y. M. C. A. last Wednes day evening. The speaker is! the pastor of the second Baptist church of Atlanta, Ga. He has a personal 'magnetism which ap peals to every one in his audi ence. The speaker said that it was the ambition of every man to be successful; to be happy. "But we need to be ambitious for the right kind of success. We should not strive only to make money but to make char acter. Napoleon with all of his brain and energy was a colossal failure." Mr. White impressed upon his hearers the fact that moral suc cess is the only safe, sane and happy success. In seeking a standard of success one should look for authority. The Bible. being abook of life, points out the right sort of success. From the Bible one finds that the greatest success comes thru the greatest understanding of the life of Jesus Christ. Christ was master of himself and in thirt& years crowded into his life more lasting success than any thous and men have done in a life. "The thought that I want to leave with you," said the speak er "is that in just the degree that we obey th-e teachings of CAROLINA OFFSETS WEDNESDAY'S DEFEAT Second Game Won by Score of 6 to 5-Third Game Soon. The second game between Carolina and the Columbia pro fessionals was staged at League Park Friday afternoon. At first the game seemed as if it would be a farce. It was rather slow until the 6th inning, when Caro lina redoubled her efforts to off set the defeat on Wednesday. At the end of this inning the Gamecocks had tied the score. The seventh inning started full of new enthusiasm and was close ly watched. The eighth and last inning won the game for Caro lina. Two men stood on bases when Langston made a safe hit and brought in the runner for the winning score. The game ended with the Gamecocks lead ing by a 6 to 5 score. The features of the game were the pitching of Flowers, Adams, and Martin, and the difficult catches of Piaxico and Richards in the outfiield. Dickerton and Bull, first and second basemen respectively for the semi-pros, played a good game. The batteries were: for Caroli na, Adams, Flowers, Martin. Stoney; for Columbia, Milne, Sutton, Smith. Mr. Thackam umpired the game. The two teams will play again soon to complete the series. Dance Friday Night. A subscription dance was given in the gynasium Friday night, from 9:30 to 1 o'clock at which were many beautifully, gowned girls from the city and nearby towns. The dance was one of the most enjoyable of the season. Comstock's Ochestra, in full, rendered the music. Many of the University light steppers were present as well as a number of young men from the city. These dances are always well attended and afford a pleasent dancing occasion between the regular University and German Club dances. Jesus Christ to that degree will our lives be successful.
