Congressman Lever Will go to Orango- burg for the Purpose. Congressman Lever has arranged with the Department of Aggriculture to carry on some cotton seed selection work in the county of Orangeburg. J. W, Bayard Caught—Mr. Holley Re covered Money for Worthless Check. J. W. Bayard, the professional crook who came to Aiken in the guise of a “•tourist” a few weeks ago, and upon his representations as being a close personal friend of Mrs. Mattie J. Brown of Pittsburg, secured $120 from G. T Holley upon a worthless check drawn upon the Wilkinsburg National Bank, and then skipped, was arrested in Phil adelphia Monday, after considerable effort on the part of the Aiken authori ties, and the amount of the check and .$30 expenses made good. During his stay here Bayard put up at the Magnolia Inn, a popular tourist resort of this city. He represented himself as being a “very much money ed” man and said that he had been in a wreck on a railroad, which smashed his trunks, destroying his clothes, and that a cry was made at the time that the train was on fire, and in his hurry J to get out of the coach he left his purse, in ! which made him moneyless. L. I Advices from Savannah stated All of the cotton breeding work the State is being carried on by Mr. L. j Advices from Savannah stated that E. Boykin, a graduate of Clemsor.

Bayard made no attempt wherever South an in-rease of 1.200,000 bales he went to shield the name which he without any increase of labor or acreage gave here. It seems that to all the this means of course a net increase in checks which he gave—and they seem the value of the cot on crop of about to have been many—he always attached South Carolinian Criticizes President’s Judicial Appointments. Hon Jas. O. Patterson, on Monday, speaking in favor of his bill to prevent any federal judge from issuing-an in junction where the law of any state or the official act of any state official is concerned, ^pd referring to a publica tion issued by the de; artment of jus- t : ce giving a list of federal judges, said : “This document shows that since hh accession to office ir 1901 President Roosevelt has appointed federal judges as follows: Sup’-tme Court of the Uni ted States,3 associate judges, one-thii. of the membership of that great trill, ual ; Circuit Couns of United States, 17 of t e 29 judges, or 61.7 per cent; District Courts of the United States, 42 of the 80 judges, or 52,5 per cent. Judging these appointees by the character of Judges Pritchard and Jones, we may assume that some of them, at least, hold the opinions of the appointing authority respecting 'he ne cessity of changing the constitution by ludicial construction in order to meet the exigencies of those corporal ions which coi tribute most liberally to the corruption fund of the Republican party. “And before his present term expires the Preside: t will probably have the opportunity of packing the courts with enough men of the same class to insure the perpetuation of his so-called ‘poli cies’by judicial action, unless we act as our predecessors did in 1802 and de prive some of these useless and time serving judges of some it all of their judicial powers. Disrtgarding the fact that before March 4, 1909, there is a probability of our having seven Roose velt judges on the Supreme Court bench, we may by that time have in office for life 17 of the 29 Circuit Court judges and 47 of the 80 District Court judges. If Mr. Roosevelt should be re elected, as many of out Republican friends anticipate, we should probably have on the bench, by 1013, as Roose velt’s appointees, 20 of the 29 Circuit Court judges, and 59 of the 80 District Co.urt judges. If this should happen the hands of congress and of every s'ate legislature would surely be tied tiard and fast by judicial usurpation.” Hiram Per y Maxim, son of Sir Hi ram Maxim, who invented the mai 'nine gun which bears his name, has been granted a patent for a “silent firearm.” and this new weapon, in tne eyes of ex perts, threatens to revolutionize the world of arms By the device of the younger inventor now formally announced as fully per fected, the discharge of the rifle or re volver is rendered practically noise less. This possibility, combined w't.» the use of smokeless powder, introdu ces a new factor upon the stage of war fare. The “silent firearm,” so military experts assert may lead to entire re equipment of the armies of th- world. In the hands of the sportsman, too, the noiseless weapon offers possibilities hitherto unknown. On the other hand if in reach of the criminal clases it pro* sents a new and difficult problem with which the authorities of the world may have to cope. Mr. Maxim who resides at Hartford, Conn., asserts that the “silent firearm” really was an accident, resulting from his long and careful study of the prob- Jtitjj of s-lencing the constant explo sion inaidept fq the running of an auto mobile engine, for the print^ple involv ed in the ne^weapon is sifpHar to that made use cflf in tfflrlutomobile muffler, the report due to the sudden release of gases at tiie muzzle of a firearm when the discharge occurs being' prevented through the.action of a valve which al lows the gass to escape gradually and with but a slight hissing sound. Because of its dreadful possibilities in the world of crime many police offi cials already have insisted that the manufact ure and disposal of the new divice should be safeguarded by law. Armed with suen a weapon a police man might be enabled to disable every member of a band of lawbreakers should he suprise them at their work. On the other hand it would be equal ly dangerous in the possession of a d< s perate criminal. The assassin by its use, would be enabled to pick off hif} victim and find opportunity of escap ing from the hiding place in which he had lain concealed without attreting suspicion. The victim would merely fall dead, and in examination might be necessary before the cause of death could be definitely ascertained. More over, no indication of the exact direc tion whence the deadly bullet came would be available as a clew with which to trace the slayer.

He said he wished this notice to be p.omulgated promptly in order that the farmers might make their preparations for entering in time, lie said further that he hoped there would be a larger number of entries than ever this year and that arrangements would probably be made for an exhibit of the products of all the Contestants at next State Fair.
