CAPERS AND JENKINS, republican Office Holders, Said to Have Vio lated Civil Service Rules. Charleston, November 8.-On charges of pernicious activity, preferred hy E. fl. Deas, chairman of the State Republican organization. ( M vii Sorvico Examiner Fred. Wannamaker, has been making full investigation hore with tho political movements of United States District At torney Capers and Collector of Internal Bovonuo Micah Jenkins. since his appointment as District At torney, Capers has boen regarded as the {m? t ie,il dictator in South Carolina and las boon consulted freoly in tho mattor of distributing patronago. Deas and Capers havo boon fighting each other, and this bitter warfaro carno to a climax with tho filing of direct charges'1 by tho formor. Uofore ho carno to Charleston Mr. Wannamakor had a hearing in Columbia. Major Jenkins was put through a rigid cross examination, and tho testimony WHS withhold. From Columbia tho civil service commissioner carno hero, put Mr. Cap?is on tho stand, where he was under a cross flro for hours by Deas, who isa negro. ' Further than to say tho exami nation was conducted, Mr. Wannamaker has refrained from making any public statement, Capers has bcon disposed to make licht of tho Deas attack, flo claims that Deas is sore politically, and has taken this method of attack In view of his defeat for F?deral office. According to common political talk tho Republican leaders in Washington looked to Capers ns tho man who could build up a whito Republican organiza tion in South Carolina. This movement has not amounted to anything thus far. lt has led to all manner of bitterness in the Republican ranks, and tho proferonco given Caporn has hoon resented hy older Republicans, who claim that Capers was but recently convortcd from tho Donio ciatie party. Just how wonk tho Republican party is in Charleston county was indicated in tho election Tuesday, when I'rioloau, the negro candidato for Congress, polled loss than fifty votes in the rnco against Geo.

Richmond, Va., November 8.-Hov? tho akin of a pig will grow upon a child I will bo watched with interest by Dr. Stuart McGuire and dozens of other physicians and surgeons in Richmond. Thc novel operation-the llrstof its kind over attempted-of grafting the skin of a pig on a human hoing, was performed this afternoon by Dr. McGuire, a son of tho lato famous suigeon, Dr. Huntor McGuire. Tho child upon whom the operation was performed is a little colored girl, who some timo ago was torribly burned. She recovered, though a good deal of tho skin peeled from tho body. It was proposed to use tho skin of tho mother in performing tho opera tion, but tho woman declined to have nny of lier cuticle removed. Thou it was that Dr. McGuiro thought of tho pig, and ho decided to got a young porker and make tho attempt, in tho interest of medical science. Tho opera tion waa performed this afternoon in tho presence Of a number of surgeons, and a hundred or moro students. Apparently it was an ontirely successful operation, but it remains to bo seen just bow tho skin of tlie pig will grow upon the little pickaninny. Molineaux Acquitted. Now York, November ll.-Roland B. Molineaux, who has been on trial for tho murder of Mrs. Adams, was to-day acquitted and the noted trial has ended. The jury remained out only twenty-live minutes, nod when their verdict wns rend there wns a great demonstration of joy in the court room. Molineaux and his father at once drove homo to meet his mother. Molineaux wns charged with causing the death of Airs. Adams, ;t woman with whom it was alleged that he had been unduly familiar, by sending her a box of poisoned candy. The crime wns com mitted more than three years ago. Molineaux was tried and after a loni? and sensational trial, lasting more than six weeks, ho was convicted anil sentenced to tho death chair. His lawyers, however, took an appeal and secured a new trial, which has been going on for the past two weeks. The case has become one of tho most famous in thc criminal his tory of the country and the'outcome lins been eagerly awaited. There was no direct evidence against Molineaux and the case hinged largely on the testimony of experts in handwritings. TOTAL COS T OK TII1C Titi AI.. New Yoik, November 12.-It has been estimated that the trial of Roland 13. Molineaux has cost more than any other for a capital offense in any country whero the English system of jurisprudence is in vogue. The cost to the county of New York in tho first trial amounted to $250, 000. This was expended in various directions, largely in fees for hand writing experts who were brought from distant States, and for detec tives who endeavored to trace Molinenux's movements to tho time of his arrest. The defense expended about $70,000 in the first trial, and it is estimated that the total on both sides for the two bearings will foot up nearly $500,000. Tho tendency of potato raisers is to grow the vineless yam. More of them than any other kind have been brought to market this yenr. They are less trouble to cultivate and easier to gather.

Governor Mcsweeney ba? issued the following Thanksgiving procla mation : It is an old and honored custom by which tho Chief Magistrate of the Slate seta apart one day as a day of thanksgiving, and praise to the Source of all.life for His manifold blessings and fostering oare. When in tho cn joy men t of health and hap piness and prosperity we are prone to forgot the sustaining hand through whioh these blessings oomo. AB a people who have had our trials and hardships, our days of adversity and of bitter strife, and through thom all wo have triumphed because of our trust in and reliance on an All-wise Providence. During tho pnst year wo have enjoyed poaco and pros perity. Tho labor of the husband men has been awarded by abundant harvests and all business has pros pored. We have been spared pesti lence and plague, drought and flood. lu this day of prosperity wo should not forgot the source of prosperity whence it comos. Wc should as a people vender thanks to God for tho blessings which wo, enjoy and in the midst of material prosperity strive for moral and spiritual uplifting, for it is not in material progress and prospority that a people can claim to bo truly groat, or hope to obtain last ing happiness. The greatness of a people rests in the character of the indi vidual citizen, and this character is built upon deeds whioh glorify God and help lift up nud bless our fellow-men. In no way can wo bet ter show our appreciation of the kindness and tho forbearance of our Heavenly Father than by doing our duty to Him, to ourselves and to our fellow-man. Now, therefore, I, M. B. Mcswee ney, Governor of the State of South Carolina, do set apart Thursday, tho 27th day'of the present month, at? a day of general thanksgiving, mid do recommend that public offices be closed and that the people cease from their ordinary vooations and in their homes and several places of worship render thanks to. God for tho blessings which they have en joyed during tho past year, and on this occasion they remember the poor and tho sorrowing by their gifts and their prayers of sympathy. M. B, McSwceney.

Columbus, Ga., November 18.-As Miss Maud Tomblin, a young girl 15 years of age, who works at the Bibb Mill, on North Highlands, was going lo ber homo on Bast Highlands early Inst night, following a roadway in a rather lonely part of northwest Hose Hill, she was accosted hy a strange negro. The girl ran and the negro followed. She warned him to lot her alone, Baying her uncle, a police man, livod in n house a short dist ance ahead. Ho wns not frightened and ran in front of the girl, blocking her path. She tried to escapo hy turning aside, but ho turned to tho same side of the road nnd kept her back. The negro then advanced upon the girl with the evident inten tion of committing assault. The plucky girl drew her hut pin and lunged it nt tho negro, and she be lieves, stuck it in him. Ho struck ber'in the breast and nlso caught her around the neck, trying to throw her to the ground. Tho ir,irl is strong for her age, however, and resisted stoutly, at the same time making desperate efforts to stiok tho negro with tho pin.

Thomas Dixon, of Now York, ] who eame hero to lecture, has a bad opinion of the negro.- "T have known them from the first years of my life," he said to a reporter. ,"My deliber ate opinion of the modern negro in this country is that he is not worth hell room. If I wore the devil I could not let him in hell. They will be driven from the South just as surely as they swarm that place now. I make the statement that no farmer'in the South oan make his farm pay with negro labor of the modern sort. I havo a farm of 500 aores in Virginia, and employed 100 negroes to work it in grain and other market stuff. I strove and strove with them, but could do nothing. I discharged them all, and have tin ned to raising polled angus beef cattle for the English market. Now I work tho farm with two white men. Thero is no hope for the Southern farmer until tho negro is ox polled^ and white labor substituted." Mr. Dixon was asked what be thought of President Roosevelt's aotion In taking up the. part of the negroes in Alabama with the Repub lican party managers. "Ho seems determined to play up the negro &i every opportunity," said Mr. Dixon. "Still, from a Re publican standpoint, he is consistent | and in line with the history and tra ditions of the 'Republican party. I do not see that we have any reason for criticising him."

The Charleston PoBt publishes a long communication from Walter boro, Governor-elect Hayward's home, in which ho allowa his views as to bis policy as to various ques tions to be outlined. From this arti ole the following extraots are made : "It will bo my purpose, aa I have already publicly annonnoed, to rely upon tho recommendation of the several county delegations in making county appointments, violating this, rule only for good and sufficient rea sons. Should I find that the recom mendation of any delegation is such that it is olear that they are not act ing for the best interest of th? com munity, but are using the trust re posed in thom for selfish purposes or to advance their own interest at the sacrifico of their communities' wel fare, I will not feel bound to accept thoir recommendations then or there? after---my solo objeot being to give to each oommunity tho official* and appointments most desired by them and best oaloulated to accord them the most acceptable service, and I believe, as a general rule, the will of tho people can best be attained through this medium ? th nu by at tempting direot appointments on knowledge whioh may be given to mo by the means of petitions and otherwise." Referring to the dispensary law, tho article says : "He does not expect to be able to absolutely prohibit tho illicit selling of liquors-in the larger eil ics it will be almost impossible to do so-but he is determined that there shall bo a respect shown to tho law and that gross and flagrant vio lations shall be unknown, and if the law is violated, most of the others being made by tho county legislative delegations, which the Governor, as a rule, will follow, as is stated above. Gone, But Not Forgotten. Departed this life November G, 1902, Mrs. Mary Lee, wife of Ruben H. Lee, daughter of L, D. Thrift. She loaves three little girls, one a small babe, to mourn the loss of a loving mother, and a husband to mourn tho loss of a good wife. Mary was a favorite of all who knew her. It is hard to give her up. Gird on thy armor ; keep back thy tears ; count not thy trials nor trou bles in vain ; they will bring theo joy of seeing her again. We should not worry, but watch for the light of that brighter day, for Mary lins gone. She will be with us no more. She will never como to our call from tho door. 'Tis hard to break tho tender cord when love has bound the heart. 'Tis hard, so hard to speak the words, wo must forever part. But again we hope to meet her when *ho day of lifo is lied, and in henven with joy to greet her, where no fare well tears aro shed. To her com panion and children most dear, weep not for her, though gone. While her body rests in the cemetery at Long Creek, awaiting tho resurrec tion morn, hor spirit is safe with tho angels at home. J, c. r. Ben Tillman Doesn't Care. Tho Atlanta .Journal of the liJth Novembor publishod tho following : "Things will do just as they aro," said Senator Ben Tillman, of South Carolina, standing in the Atlanta union depot at 4 o'clock this after noon. I am porfectly content to see tho Republicans stay in full power until a financial crash comes, for all thoir gold standard and their tariff, and until they get all the dam aging that is coming to thom." Senator Tillman was speaking of tho recent election. Ile passed through the city this afternoon,* loaviug on tho Birmingham train a litter after 4 o'olock, on his way to Cameron, Texas, where he is to lec ture. "I in very well satitdied with the outcome of tho olection," ho said. "I don't think it would have boon any benefit to tho Democrats to con trol the House now. I want tho Republicans to hold all tho responsi bility. We could have dono nothing with them controlling the Senate and tho Exec?tive, and it is my judg ment that tho party will suffer noth ing by its failure to win this time, for tho reason that thoro will now bo no divided administration to lay things to nnd the Republicans oan hold tho bng themselves and shoulder nil tho blame. I await the day when the crash will come and they got all ?that's coming to them." Tho Supreme Court of the United States has decided that a debt re sulting from dealing in cotton futures is not n gambling debt. This ought to give a boost to tho buckot shops. It would he a great roliof if Sena tor Tillmnn would say something. Such a long, dead calm makes us dread the terrors of the storm when it does burst. The Clemson boys should stick to their hoes, rakes and mattocks and not. go "projecking" around with biyonetfl and sure-onough swords. They might hurt some one seriously.
