Walterboro, Dec, 22 ?R A. Adamp, the convicted man and sentenced murderer of Henry M. Jaques, who baa so long been at liberty, and for whose cloture a reward of $1,100 has been offered, whs captured at his home near Cottageville last night at midnight. It has been rumored for some time that he was m the neighbor- | bood of hie home, aDd 'last night ai determined posse composed of Sheriff j L G. Owens, Deputy Sheriffs E. P. j Henderson, G S. Arnett, E. P. j Knight, E. G. Strobel, P. M. Murray | and Oapez8 Stewart, all of Walterboro, left town about 8 o'clock and arrived at Adams' home about 11 o'clock. The one room house situated in an open field was m darkness and appeared to be locked up. The posse surrounded the house, some of them guarding ibe avenues of approach, others guarding each door and window. Deputy Henderson knocked on the door and itquired of Mrs. Adams if her husband was at home. After a few raps she replied saying ber busband was not there and had not been there. He then rt quested ber to open the door as they were going to search the bouse anyway. She then bdgan to cry and told them they could not enter. Mr. Henderson then secured an axe and broke the dr??r rtnon and wMit in olnselv follow V%uu? ? ?* V* " ? - - ed by G. S- Arnett, the sheriffs sonin-law Mr. Henderson struck a match aod held it up. He saw Adams in a crouched position near the fire place. His gun was levelled on Henderson, who threw down the match and stepped out of the door. Adams Cuuld have killed the deputy or Arnett but did not shoot. RECOGNIZED MR. HENDERSON. He stated afterwards that by the light of the match he had recognized Mr. Henderson and did not wish to kill him as Henderson had shown j him many kindnesses while he was j in j iil. Immediately a window was seen to open and a gun muzzle protruded ! as if Adams was trying to escape through the window, whereupon the sheriff fited a load of buckshot into the window and no further effort to escape was made. Adams then wanted to know if 1 they were going to get any reward for his capture; that be would not surrender if any reward was to be received. The sheriff then believing that he could be captured without bloodshed decided that he would allow him to consult Magistrate Ackerman and immediately sent for him. Mr. Ackerman came and ad- i vised Adams that under the law the | sheriff could not collect the reward, j The only weapon Adams was found < to possess was a single barrel breech i loading shotgun. adams* statement "I cut saw-logs, stripped fodder, picked cotton, gathered peas, planted potatoes and gathered tbem and got j out palings to fence in my yard, I which I did. ' The saw-logs I cut were on my own land aDd were hauled to a saw mill near by belonging to S. G Pierce. With the timber I erected a shed on ray place, which is now there to show for itself. I did not mean to hurt a single soul but was working for my wife and children. I have never left the State and had do intention of leaving. If I could get loose now I would go right back there and work | for my wife and children as long as I j could make 50 cents. My friends j kept me posted. I knew the sheriff! intended to come last Saturday night, and if he had come he would not have found me. I had no idea that he was comiDg last night.'' Adams left Walterboro on the afternoon train in care of Sheriff Owens for Columbia, by direction received from Gov. Heyward. When Adams learned he was to be carried away, he stated to those near him that had he known this he would | not have surrender d. tkq nuioannif nvrvrnflfi or? hrmoa nf i x uu ptiovuui vuwvt MV^-VU V* j executive clemency.

Mukden, Dec. 18?Artillery fire still continues along the front of the Russian army. It was particularly severe on December 15fch, when the Japanese made a demonstration against Russian advanced positions on the railway. The Russian camps present a picturesque appearance. The sides of the bids and the fields aronnd the village are dotted with mud huts and little chimneys of dng outs, from which smoke is rising.- These habitations of the common soldiers are more comfortable than the officers' quarters in Coinese houses. The transport service is working .well as the toads are hard frozen and in excellent condition. The rouble has depreciated in value as the result of the stoppage in the shipment of silver. The weather is clear and cold. If the Baby is Cutting Teeth, Be sure and use that old and welltried remedy, Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup, for children teething.

Norfolk, Ya. December 15?Norfolk and tbe Virginia Carolina coast region was in the grasp of a'fierce northwest storm with a combination of fog, rain, snow and eleet to-day. Tbe wind is blowing forty miles an hour off the capes to-night and few steamers have ventured out. Hampton Roads is sheltering a vast fleet of sailing vessels. South of Cape Henry the Government sea coast wires are prostrated and no news has been received from the Hatteraa section since early, in the day. Up to the time communication was broken there bad been no marine disasters repoited, but tbe gale has increased in intensity to night, and a heavy sea is on the outside. The storm has done little damage in Norfolk. A Creditable Musicale. The Batesburg correspondent of the Columbia State, writing from that town, says: "A very pleasant as well as successful musicale was given in tbe opera house Monday night of last week by a few of the best music pupils of the graded school. The pupils, although many of them were quite young, did well and reflected great credit upon their teachere, Misses Carrie Lou Harman and Lottie Ridgell." Straight Pacts.

Humming Bird. ? - To Control TrustsWashington, Dec 21 ?The most important feature of the first general report of the bureau of corporations, James G. Garfield, commissioner, which was submitted to CoDgress today, is a recommendation that laws be passed for a Federal license or franchise for companies engaged in interstate commerce. This is the first step in the legislature proposed so that trusts may be put under the control of the national government, and is in keeping with President Roosevelt's recommendations in reference to them as well as to railroads. ? - ' When b man is first with a woman he is always next.
