THEY HEAR TACT1 Customary Presidential Advice Has Been Delivered TO SENATE AND HOUSE The Tenor of the Document Please* the Republican*, Who Think Its Recommendations Are a Skillful Cross Between Fulfillment of the Pledges and Recommendations. Congress mot on last Monday and on Tuesday heard President Taft'u message read. The formality of readiLg the menage consumed about an hour and a half of the time of | each house. When the conclusion was reached the house Immediately adjourned but the senate remained 1 in session for some time afterward, 1 an executive session being held be- ' fore that body adjourned. 1 Little fault was found with the ' message among the Republicans, who i seemed to agree that it was aa sat- 1 Isfa^tory a document as the Proeident could prepare and remain consistent with the party'B campaign i pledges. The Democrats approved ' of the president's efforts to economize but deprecated his suggestion i that tne Monroe doctrine had practically become obsolete. I Opposition to the proposed Imme- ' dlsto congressional Investigation of the sugar Import scandals In tho New York custom house, and likewise to any further revision of the ' tariff at present; absence of any specific recommendation regarding the crisis In Nicaragua, and actual recommendation of legislation to for bid the issuance of Judicial injunctions without notice in labor controversies, and for the establishment of a system of postal savings banks, may be considered the most striking features of the first annual message of President Taft to congress. The Nlcaraguan question, conservation of the nation'B natural resources, needed amendments to the anti-trust and Interstate commerce acts, and the contemplated revision of the federal statutes governing the organization of the armed forcoe of the nation in time of war are all reserved for possible treatment later in special messages. In his message which bulks some 17,000 words, Mr. Taft reports the country to be "In a high state of prosperity," and he adda that "there is every reason to believe that we are on a eve of a substantial business expansion, and we have Juat garnered a harvest unexampled to the market value of agricultural products." The president expressed entire confidence 'that the duty Imposed upon the executive of enforcing tht maximum rate3 of the new tariff law against nations unduly discriminating against the United States will not provoke any tariff war, and ht favors no further taniff tinkering ?* iaaut tinrii th<j Tmw tariff com mission has completed Its work of 1 gathering information as to the reU- 1 tlve cost of producing dutiable articled In this country and abroad.

Ptn Worn by Lexington Man Slain Trrcntr-wrfo Years A?> Returned to His Son. Twenty-seven y&ars ago th# dead and mangled body of W. 9. Hook w-Bfl found lying on the Richmond and Danville Railroad track (now the Southern), between the llttie towns of Summit and Gilbert Hollow, ten mllea from Lexington. A few days afterwards. Squire Clarke, a negro, waa arrested, charged with having killed Hook, and placing bin body on the railroad track to cover his terrible crime. For a time the feeling against the negro ran high, and aftor two trials he was convict-, ed and sentenced to serve the balance of hit life In the State PenlLentlary. Claike Is said to have protested hla innocence through thick and thin, but owing to the fact that tie bore a bad reputation In the community, coupled wtth the fact that be and Hook had bad a railing out a day or two before, it was believed that he was the guilty party. Another thing which worked against the accused wae that he and Hook both resided at Gilbert Hollow, which wae only two miles from Summit, and both walked the railroad on the night 1q question. Hook wae a barkeeper, and ot time, drank to esceas, it ifl said, and at the time the negro was tried some of the citizens belioved that he bad merely layed down upon the track and weut to Bleep. Clarke did not remain in the Penitentiary long, dying about two years after being taken there, of consumption. When death was staring him in the faee, and when he knew there was no possible scape, he Is said to have denied any knowledge of the killing of the white man. Four or five weeks ago a lotter came to Summit, addressed to Mr. W. % Hook. TLe postmistress, Mrs. Rhftftlv th? mnthur r>f fMarfr r\t fhr Court Frank W. Shealy, of Lexington, delivered the letter to W. 8. Hook, Jr., who resides In the neighborhood, not far away. The letter was from a gentleman In Charleston, and in the letter was inclosed a Masonic pin, beoring the inscription of "W. 8. Hook." Young Hook ild not know what to think of it at first, for he himself was not a Mason, and he at once began to make Inquiry. He told his friends and relatives eboot It. To him the finding of the body of W. 8. Hook on the railroad track was but a dream. But there were others who remembered that terrible tragedy, and it was learned that the Masonic emblem waa no other than that which *aa worn by W. 8. Hok on the night In which he met his death, but which was never found. The sender of the letter stated that ho had found the pin a few !aya before at the Union Station ir? Columbia, and that he took pleasure In seeding it to Its owner. It Is now beli^VArf hv manr that Lhe negro, Equlre Clarke, was convicted and punished for a crime of which he was innocent, and finding the pin may be the means of bringing to Justloe the parties who committed the murder?if murder ther" :va??or of clearlg up the mystery xrhlch surrounded the finding of the lead body of W. 8.

ARTFUL CROOKS" R Use the Mails to Defraud the Public on a Big Scale ? 0 CLEVER BEGGING GAME An Official of the Pofftofflca Doll partnient Tells of an fntereettng t] Scheme Where a Girt Raked ' i ^ iz Big Pile of Hard Cash by a Chartty he heme. }< Tbo following interesting story le 5 reported by a poatoffice official: T "Use of the malls la resorted to by artful crook# as a most convenient way of defrauding the defense leas public. The chief postofflce in- 1 Bpector and his numerous expert as- , siBtanta, stationed in various parts < of the country, are bu?y at all times trying to aave the people from being Illegally separated from their money. Little doea the public realize the nature of the schemes employed to defraud through the maile. Almost every day the Postmaster General signs orders depriving in- ( dlvlduale and concerns conducting businesses to defraud, from further use of the malls. This is not always the final disposition of such 1 cases?numbers or tnese loaiviuuaiu are Bummooed to court, and In man; Instances after trial, sentenced to | 6erve long terms In the penitentiary. "Porhaps one of the most unucu* al schemes to defraud through the mails wag discovered not long ago. < After thorough investigation by the Inspectors It was ultimately suppressed, but not until after the promoters had reaped a harvest. The schemes e< consisted of an appeal to the people for financial assistance In behalf g of an armleas girl. For the pur- p pose of bringing her condition to li the public attention, Bhe published s' a booklet and sent it broadcast tl throughout the country. The booklet was devoted to a brief history of G the glrl'B life, detailing an accident e: by which she had lost both of her tl arms. Tfoe narratlvo was accom- y panlcd by Illustrations of the unuau- o al work she performed with her li feet. With each booklet mailed n was encloeed a coin card requesting a the remittance of 26 cents for the aame, and a circular letter appealing to the recipient for money with which to build a home and get some good motherly woman to take care G of it for her. t< "The investigation made by the 11 Inspector developed the fact that the armless girl bad entered Into o a contract with a man, who resided f< In the same city, to furnish the oapl- o tal necessary to pnbllsh the booklet, fi In return the man was to receive, w and did receive one-half of the set proceeds deriving from the sale -of si the booklet. He was first reimbure- s< ed for the money he had advanced ci to pay for its publication. ' li "On his initial visit to the "town n where the business was being car- w rled on, the inspector found that the a enterprise had attained such pro- Vl portions that the services of eleven ^ persons, in addition to the armless ?irl and her manager, were requlr- I ed. The girl Informed the inapeo- *? tor on this visit that at that time fl' three thousand booklets per day were n being mailed, that the dally reoelpts aj amounted to from $86 to $150, and a [ that the business was steadily In- & ! creasing. She further Informed the <x Inspector that up to that time she 01 had accumulated as her share of the pi proceeds more than $10,000. While y< the representations appearing In the C booklet respecting the physical oon- w lltlon of the girl were true, she had long passed the stage where sh? was tr dependent upon charity. pi "When the Inspector was eatlfled lr that the girl was no longer a sub- ^ ject for charfty, and that her man- et iger was sharing equally In the proe-eeds, the subject of depriving them Ul of further use of the malls waa iak en up. The Interested parties were w asked to show why snch on order n< should be Issued. After appearing cr qdd commenting to eliminate from their literature objectionable and " misleading statements, they were c' permitted to continue their business. 'D During the ensuing few months the a? business dwindled to practically " nothing and it soon abandoned en- ra tirely; the elimination of the objectionablo features from the lltera- m ture having proved as effective ae 031 the Issuance of a fraud order. ai "The letter which accompanied the booklet was a reproduction. A footnote explained that It was a w facsimile of a letter written with the feet of the girl, and that Bhe would like to write each a personal letter, but it would bo too much of a ta*k. On the reverse side of the letter, what the girl proponed to do with tb* money derived from the Bale ol Q tbe booklet was explained and at j the eame time a little hietory of hm past was recited. It was stated that Bhe had not bad mufch experience in a business way and that her frlend6 thought ft advlsablo that ^ she have somo one look after her interest, and that the county court ne had appointed a man to act as her trustee. "The booklet enclosed In add' ru tlon to giving a detailed history of a the girl's life, contained many 11- a_ lustrations of the performance of at marvelous acts with b?r feet, 6noh tj. as sharpening a pencil, using the jjj shares, writing, combing her hair.

I A discovery of far-reaching Importance to the farmers of the Boutb Is the new fertilizer which has been perfected on one of the Islands near Charleston, 8. C. It has long been known that lime Is an essential food for plants of all kinds and that they cannot live when It has been exhausted from the soil. It has also been known that old worn-out lands are extremely deficient in lime, and that sour, badly-drained lands have their lime la a for mthat Is not usable by growing crops. Farmers' Bulletin No. 124, U. 8. Dept. of Agriculture, aaya: "All the applications of lime Increased the yields The best yields were obtained with (he lime in the form U1 CUrUUUttlO, tUO uuvijr 0ivuuvi tr~ ter shells standing first * * Lime with fertilizer was more profitable than depending upon fertilizer alone." This new fertilizer which presents lime in its most usable form is made by a new process of burning oyster shells and using a burner that can supply potashLV The result Is a high grade fertilizer costing the consumer only $7.00 per ton. It reclaims worn-out lands in' a marvelous manHer if applied broadcast two months ahead of amraonlated goods. It's sweetening effects on sour lands is almost magical. Charleston freight rates apply on this new fertilizer. The factory is located on Young's Island, S. C., but all letters should be addressed to E. L. Commlns, Sales Agent, Meggette, 8. C.
