Southern Life Men Say State Insur ance Commissioner Will be Held Responsible. News and Courier. Columbia, March 30.-The revoca tion of the license of the Southern Life Insurance Company to do busi ness in this State, which action was taken by Commissioner MoMaster a few days ago, has resulted in C. J. Cooper, of Fayetteville, saying that ''at the proper time and in the pro per manner, Commissioner McMaster will be held responsible for his cow ardly attack upon me.'" Mr. McMaster was yesterday shown this telegram, and said that he had no comment to make. He thought from the evidence submitted in the transfer of the stock of the Southern Life In surance Company to the Seminole Se curities Company, tat his. remarks were justified and that it was "high finance'" and ''stock jobbing'" throughout. The matter was left en tirely to the judgment of the public. TO SELECT SILVER SERVICE. Goverxor Anael Soon to Appoint Commission Authorized by Legislature. News and Courier. .Columbia, March 30.-Governor Ansel was this morning looking over some pictures of silver services which have been presented to various battle ships of the United States navy. The pictures were brought here by Mr. Thomas, one of 'Charleston's jewel lers. The South Carolina, one of Uncle Sam's best battle -ships, will be pres ented with silver service when she is commissioned next December. The launching of this boat took place at Philadelphia 'last July, when Gover nor Ansel was present with an official party and the boat was christened by Miss Ansel. At the session of the legislature just ended Senator Sink ler, of Charleston, introduced and there was passed a joint resolution carrying an apprepriation of $5,000 for a silver service for the South Car olina. The commission has not yet been appointed; the governor is ex officio chairman; one member will be the chairman of the finance commit te'e of the senate, another will be the abairman of the ho.use ways and means committee; the two other members axe to be appointed by Gov ernor Ansel. * YOU WANT TI YOU C2 '- And yet you do not w g much.

The boat will be commissioned in December and it has -been suggested that it would be a good idea for the presentation of the silver service to take place in South Caroli-na waters. Answers Question. Cleveland Plain Dealer. The attorney for the defense had just completed the reading of his hypothetical question. He looked at the clock. It had taken him one hour and 26- minutes. He looked at the witness. "Have you heard the question?'" he said. The witness nodded. ''And what is your answer'" The witness wriggled uneasily. "I guess I didn't just catch the drift of it," he apologetically remark ed, ''won't you please read it again." And the presiding judge fell back with a hollow groan. 60 YEARS* EXPERIENCE TRADE MARKS DESIGNS COPYRIGHTS &C.
