E. Bogga Seeks Assistant U. S. Attorneyship. (Anderson Intelligencer.) Julius E. Beggs, Esq., for eight years solicitor of this, the Tenth Cir cuit, and once a candidate for Con gress from this district, who made an even split of Anderson county for the office, may be appointed Assistant Attorney General of the United States. Mr. Bogga returned yester day from Washington, where he spent three weeks In the interest of lils candidacy. South Carolina's senior Senator, B. R. Tillman, is leaving no stone unturned in Mr. Boggs's behalf, and his chances of success are exceed ing bright. Mr. Boggs also has the backing of the junior Senator, E. D. Smith, and other Influential Senators and Congressmen. While In Washington Mr. Boggs had conferences with some of the leading influential men, and he has .laid well bis plans to knock down the juicy plum he has determined to secure. , 5 Mr. "Boggs's resemblance to Presi dent Woodrow Wilson was comment ed on by numbers of Senators, Con gressmen and public men of Wash ington. In fact, when Mr. Boggs held a conference with the President, the nation's chief had quite a lot to say of his "double," and that In a complimentary way, too. Mr. Boggs and the President both wear glasses, are clean shaven, of the same weight and build and have a swing to their walk. Mr. Boggs was on his way to the station Wednesday morning when he was told that. President Wilson wished to so him before leaving. Mr. Boggs then called on the President and had quite a lengthy conference with him. The nature of the confer ence Mr. Boggs did not give out, but it is known that he ls feeling pretty good over his prospects of landing a $10,000-a-year job. While of course the appointment lies with the President, it will be made on the recommendation of At torney General McReynolds, who, it is believed, was favorably impressed with Mr. Boggs, who held a lengthy conference with him during his stay in Washington.

Washington, July 16.-The sum moning of Ambassador Wilson to Washington to discuss the Mexican situation, it was stated at tho White House to-day, was the direct result of a formal demand by Germany that the United States take some immedi ate step to quiet the disturbance south of the Rio Grande. Germany, lt was learned to-day, has filed a note, drafted by Count Von Ileimhausen, counsellor of the German embassy, demanding that the United States do something to pro tect foreigners in Mexico. Demands Subjects Bo Protected. It was staled merely, In the most emphatic of terms, that Germany de mands protection for her subjects and their property, and that lt ls the duty of the United States to provide protection Inasmuch as the Monroe Doctrine prohibits European nations from landing troops on the soil of tho Western Hemisphere. It ls believed that Germany's note is only the first of a scries of other diplomatic utterances from Pm rope notes which will either embroil the United States /with. Mexico or Jeop ardize the vitality of the Monroe Doctrine. To Delny Action. Washington, July 17.-The admin istration will make no move in the Mexican situation and will reserve announcement of its future policy to ward the Huerta government until after President Wilson and Secretary Bryan have had an opportunity to confer with Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson, now en route to Washington from Me*!co City. Upon the advice and report of con ditions which Ambassador Wilson himself presents will depend whe ther ho will return to the Mexican capital. No answer will be made to the note of one of the European powers about conditions In Mexico until the Washington government has had an opportunity to learn the true state of affairs in the Southern republic. 1 Administration officials", in stating the facts to-night, confessed their embarrassment and difficulty in ob taining trustworthy information at long range about Mexican politics and its ephemeral changes. These same officials let lt be known inci dentally that they believed the dem KID OP THE FAMILY IS 85. H HM Five Brothers and Sisters, Bach Now Over the Hundred Mark. Denver. Col., July 19.-With the "baby" 85 years old, the most re markable family in the United States in point of longevity, has been dis covered through its Denver member, "Uncle John" Ritchie, eighty-five, who has recently opened a restaurant at Englewood after being pensioned by the Denver Tramway Company for twenty-five years' faithful service. "Uncle John" has six brothers and sisters living, all of whom are older than he, and all except one over 100 years "of age. Like "Uncle John" they have all lived busy, active lives, and with the exception of one bro ther and one sister, ate still tn some sort of business. The oldest brother, Thomas, is 1 1 :i ; Marguerite, 110; Mary Ann, 108; Charles, 105; David, 101; Elizabeth, 88, and iJncle John is a mere kid-85. Counts on Living Century. "I feel better than I have for years," he declared recently, "and I expect to see another quarter of a century before I'm laid away." Time has dealt lightly with "Uncle John," and In spite of his life of toil he appears no more than seventy. "Yes," he continued reflectively, "the Ritchies are a long-lived fam ily." He was busy arranging fresh carnations In the vases to put on the tables. "Uncle John" loves flower-j, and had made a special trip to town just to get fresh ones for Sunday. "And they always rear big fami lies, too." There were fourteen of us children, and most of us had large families. I had twelve children, bro ther Thomas sixteen and several of the others had fourteen.' ' When asked the secret of long life, "Uncle John" was thoughtful for a few minutes. Finally he said: "Well, I guess it's work. Of course, hered ity has a great deal to do with lt. But we have always been hard, steady workers. Work day In and day out, is all I have known since I was a lad of twelve and took a Job on the cow pa i h. I left my father's home then and heve been supporting my self ever sine?." The passing of the years has left Ritchie philosophical, stoical. There have been tragedies in his life, but they have lett him unembittered. The most vivid impression he had after leaving his father's home was I the. finding of his stepmother's body in the canal as he drove along the side. "Her hands were gripping the wil low roots," he said, "and the water pall lay beside where she had slipped in after lt." A year later his father, aged 68, was drowned. In Mexican and Civil Wars. Ritchie recalls driving with his brother Charles to the Mexican bor der from their home near Phllade phla to enlist In the Mexican war. He was forty-five when the Civil War broke out, and he served the whole period. After the war, although an old man then, he followed his pio neering Instincts and came West. He was a locomotive engineer and he ran the first train that .vent up into the Dakotas. Holdups and encount ers with the "bad men" who infested the West In the rough early days were a part of his routine wdrk. And now "Uncle John," whose whole life has been marked by his Intense independence, prefers to live by himself and work for his living to making his home with any of his children. "They all live In Pennsylvania," he remarked, "and they keep writing for me to come. But I know how people are, especially sons-in-law and daughters-in-law, In regard to old people. And I never Intend to be a burden to any of my children." Ritchie ls planning a visit to the East next fall, and he ndded that he would step in and visit the children and see how. they are getting along. But stay there? Never! Advice to the Aged.

Omaha, Neb., July 17.-While the weather bureau reported the temper ature somewhat lower to-day than yesterday, four deaths were reported here. onstratiohs in Mexico City recently against Americans were fomented and manufactured by a small group of Mexicans who were trying to force the United States to recognize the Huerta government. UNCLE SAM'S WAR ON THE "YEGGS." (Continued from Page Two.) buy yourself a box of blacking and polish your face, for you are scared white." Walter is still at large. His ex ploits would Mil a volume could he be induced to talk. A confession from him would be of far greater value to post ofllce inspectors and custodians of banks than that of "Johnny" McCarthy, for the" latter, as wily and successful as he was, got only hundreds while Walter was reaping thousands. There have been but few bank and post office robberies in the South in the last decade that ho wasn't con cerned In. His affairs with women have been numerous, and his pen chant for writing to them has more than once caused him to run his head into a noose from which only by the merest luck he managed to extricate himself. His letters have often fallen into tho hands of post ofllco inspec tors, and in every case they were either addressed to a fellow-thief or to some woman who consorts with thieves and who knows their inner most secrets. While the yegg band that was rounded up and captured in Balti more was being pursued lt was the Interception of Walter's letters that made the ratd a success. These let ters were sent from New York to Charleston, S. C., and all contained Information which the postal detec tives were scouring the country to obtain. , But despite this almost fatal fail ing Walter always manages to keep a few jumps in advance of his pur suers, and whenever an especially clever bank or post office burglary crops up lt is a safe wager that Wal ter, whom many characterize as the "Smoothest thief in the country to day,*' enjoys the major portion of the plunder.

Thomas published in his paper an article dealing with the visit of the Insurance Commissioner. It was stated that the company had been doing business there for several months, and had collected about $80 per week from policyholders. The names of several persons who claimed to have been duped by tho company were also given in the paper. A date for the trial was set for last week before a magistrate, but was changed and will be heard; within the next few days. NOTICE TO CREDITORS. State of South Carolina, County of Oeonee.
