Tillman Failed to Secure Bail.
Colombia, February 19, 5.10 p m.
?CJrief Justice Pope today refused
to grant bail to James H. Tillman.
Mr. Justice Pope held that Tillman
had provocation for the killing, but
that there was malice evident
THE FULL STORY.
Columbia, January 19 ?Chief Justice
Y. J. Pope this morning beard
the motion for bail for J. H. Tillman.
At the hearing at Newberry Holtzenbach,
of Edgefield, testified that
he had heard Mr. GoDzales say that
he would make Tillman show the
white feather. This was corroborated
by Mr. J. A. White, doorkeeper in
the Senate, who modified by saying
that he did not know who the man
was bat that he heard the remarks.
Today the State produced witnesses
to show that White is feebleminded.
In reply Senator B. K. Tillman
and ex-Treasurer W. H. Timmerman
testified ar to White's veracitv and
proper mental state.
Answers of affidavits were submitted
by Holtzenbach's neighbors,
who swear his lsck of veracity, and
the defense submitted affidavits in
reply from Dr. Tim merman and
others.
The prosecution produced affidavits
to show that Tillman was *':ie
one who bad made threats, that
zales made no demonstration, and
that his hands were in his overcoat
pockets, trumbs out, and that tbey
had not been thrust into the pockets.
Dr. Lancaster, a legislator from
Spartanburg, saw Tillman's pistols
the day before the shooting.
In reDlv was an affidavit from Miss
a ?
Roper, a trained nurse of Spartanburg,
who declared that in attending
Mr. Gonzales' uncle, Captain Elliott*
that she heard Gonzales remark that
Tillman had showed the white feather
and heard him speak ill of Tillman.
The prisoner himself presented an
affidavit setting forth the editorial attacks
made upon him in the State
newspaper since 1890.
An affidavit was read from C. E.
Black, a railroad man, saying that
Tillman had told himf that he intended
to kill Gonzales and that Tillman
had showed him the pistol with
whieh he^w&a going to commit the
deed.
Representative Gaoze said he had
heard Tillman say that he told his
wife that be didn t know where he
would board in Colombia; that it
might be in the Penitentiary.
E J. Wat8ont city editor of the
State, the paper of which N. G Gonzales
was editor, submitted an affidavit
in which he eaid that Tillman
made a request of him to tell Gonzales
that he (Tillman) ioteoded to
kill bim.
Tillman denied ail these statements
and again asserted that GoLzalee
atart-d at him ?Dd made a move as if
to pull a pistol.
At 11 30 the reading of affidavits
w*s concluded.

fenee, followed by Mr. Andrew Crawford
and Mr Bellinger for tbe prosecution.
Col. Croft made the concluding
argument for the defense.
Chief Justice Pope at 4:10 rendered
a decision declining to grant Tillman
bail and aliow bim to present a petition
to any other Judge.
TJIEEE WAS SrriT.ES^ED EMOTION*.
Over one hundred pec.ple bung
with breathless attention on the
words of tbe Chief Justice as, with
evidently suppressed emotion, be announced
bis decision.
It was tbe rule of the Court, be
said, iD such ca^es to make no explanation
of tbe reasons governing tbe
decision. During eleven years, be
said, a8? shown by tbe testimony
which has been submitted, the attacks
upon Colonel Tillman were 8E
ordeal for him to beat?an ordeal
almost unparalleled in South Carolina.
It would be haid to believe
under these attacks malice had tot
been implanted in that applicant's
breast. Mulder is the taking of human
life with malice aforethought.
With the oath of cffice so recency
upon his lips, Chief Justice Pope
said, he must cio Lis duty and decline
the application without prejudice Lo
the case of the defendant. ,

The First Hundred Dollars.
A rich man who died not long
Said that the hardest part in making
a fortune was the paving of the drat
hundred dollars. That is to say when
a boy or young man has succeeded in
putting aside a hundred dollars, he
has formed the habit of prudeoce
and economy and after that the way
is easier.
v You boys who are starting life for
yourself should start a bank account
at the same time. It does not mat
ter particularly how much you lay
aside at first, so that you lay aside
something, and do it regularly. The
boy who starts in by spending every
penny he earns will have a hard
struggle to conquer that habit, no
matter how large his salary becomes.
And if he starts by saving a little it
will soon be easier to put aside something
from his weekly earnings than
not to do it. Your bank account r^ay
be insignificant, viewed merely as a
matter of dollars and cents, but it is
bigger than it sounds. Not only is
it laying the foundation for financial
independence, but it is a safeguard
against extravagant habits which lead
so many young men into dissiption
and dishonesty. t
Tendency of the Times.
The tendency of medical science
is toward preventive measures. The
best thought of the world is being
t tl. tl :
given 10 toe euDjeoi- zt is earner
8nd better to prevent than to care.
It has been fnlly demonstrated that
pneumonia, one of the most dangerous
diseases that medical men have
to contend with, can be prevented by
the use of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy.. Pneumonia always results
from a cold or from an attack of influenza
(grip), and it has been observed
that this remedy counteracts
any tendency of these diseases toward
pneumonia. This has been fully
proven in many thousands of cases
in which this remedy has been used
during the great prevalence of colds
and grip in recent years, and can be
relied upon with implicit confidence.
Pneumonia often results from a
slight cold when no danger is appre
banded until it is suddenly discovered
that theie is fevvr and difficulty
in breathing and pains in the chest,
then it is announced that the patient,
has pneumonia. Be on the safe side

What Did She Mean.
Tbey were at supper. Between
the courses the young man with the
voracious appetite discoursed eloquently
on things in general.
"Do you know, Miss Da-h," be
remarked, "I think there is a very
intimate relation between our food

1 you know, that we grow like what

In 0D6 of the large manufacturing
establishments in this city an Irishman
waB employed to watch one of
the entrances.
Oae day the superintendent saw
the Irishman was neglecting his duty
and told him to go to the office and
get bis money, as his services were

The superintendent went away on
business that day and was gene about
a week or teo days.
Oa his return he happened to be
passing the same place and was surprised
to find the Irishman he had
discharged still acting as watchman.
He said: "I thought I discharged
you a couple of weeks ago.:!
"Sure," says the Irishman.
"Well, why didn't you get out
when you were told?"
"Oo, I know when I got a gcod
boss, if you don't know when you
have got a good man."
Needless to say, he is still there.
Caution!
This is not a gentle word?but

not to purchase the only remedy

has had the largest sale of any medicine
in the world since 1868 for cure

losing its great popularity ail these
years, you will be thankful we called
your attentioji to Boschee's German

cough remedies made by druggists
