MAGISTRATE SAMPLE GETS HIM Showed Very Fine Speed in Chase For Negro in Main Stret in Green. ville. Greenville News, Aug. 27. After a wild and exciting chase ex tending over several blocks, one El liott Warthey, a negro, charged with cutting his wife in Newberry more than six months ago, was captured in the city yesterday afternoon at three o'clock and lodged in .the county jail. He will be carried back to Newberry to stand trial for the offense charg ed. The chase was one of the most ex citing ever pulled off in the city and was participated in by several men and boys before the negro was brought to bay and captured. While walking along Main street yesterday afternoon, Magistrate J. C. Sample, of Newberry county, who was in the -city for the day, caught sight of the negro, Elliott Warthey, and recog nizing him and knowing that he was wanted in Newberry on the charge of assault and battery with intent to kill, took him into custody and carried him to the office of Magistrate Samuel Stri~dley, to secur,e the necessary pa pers with which to place the negro in jail, pending his removal to Newberry. While the two magistrates were at the desk ,arranging the necessary pa pers, the negro was allowed to sit in a chair a little too near the door. For at an opportune moment he saw that "perseverance was better than valor," and basely "deserted the guns." He dashed down the steep steps leading from Magistrate Strad'ley's office to the street below at the rate of "40 miles an hour," clearing the entire steps -in two bounds. He dashed down Main street toward Reedy River bridge at a still faster rate of speed. Magistrate Sample easily showed that he still has a little speed in him, for he gave chase to the negro, at the same time calling on others to join in. Many passersby poined in and the race grew exciting. The negro, seeing that his pursuers were rapidly gaining on him, thought to give them the dodge, and turned the corner of Broad street and went fiying down that stret toward the UTn derwear factory, havi!ng, in the mean time gained more speed. He left his pursuers far in the rear. Thinking; he had slipr.ed them, he hid in a small house to take a rest before venturing forth on the street. Sad to relate, while closely and snugly enclosed in his little house, he was espied by some. of the searchers anc niau'ed forth, with a sheepish grin overspreading his black countenance. Accomnanied .by the large crowd of searchers, who were bent on seeing the thing well done after their long and tiresome chase, the negro was carried to the county jail and lodged safe and sound behind the bars, to await his "pleasant journey" back to Newberry to standl trial. It was stated by Magistrate Sample that this negro, Elliott Warthey, is wanted in Newberry on the charge of cutting his wife with intent to kill. The cutting is said to have occurred some six months ago, at which time Elliott carved his wife u.p in great style. He immediately left for parts unknown, and since that time had not been heard from until seen by the magistrate yesterday afternoon while walking on Main street. The man-chase was quite exciting and furnished some fun for those who] participated in it. The negro in mak ing his wild break for .liberty was no! doubt inspired with the principle of "he who fights and runs away will live to fight another day." But judging by what the Newberry magistrate said, concerni..g the gravity of his case, it will be some time before Elliott gets a chance to fight again, for it is prob able that he will grace the chain gang BLEASE HEEDS PROTEST OF VETERANS OF 1861-65 Will Ask Cancellation of Text Book Contract-One of Series of Readers. Columbia, Aug. 24.-Gov. Blease said this afternoon that at the meeting here August 28, of the State board of edu 'cation, of which he is ex-officio chair man, he would ask the board, in view of action yesterday by the South Caro lina Division, United Confederate Vet erans, to cancel the five-year contract recently made for "Heart of Oak" readers, to be used in the public schools of the State.

The governor also stated that he was not present when the readers were adopted by the State board of education, being called out of the city at the time. "I will bring the matter to the at tention -of the board at its meeting here on the 28th," concluded the gov ernor, "and I will use my inguence to the end that the contract with the Arm be cancelled." It was stated that the meeting on the 28th is called to consider protests from publishing companies, and to bear appeals from -the several counties as to school matters. The governor has a formal protest from one of the publishing houses as to the interpreta tion of the contract with the State. Veterans Protest. The following is the protest regis tered by the resolution of the old sol diers: "Wherieas, the Heart of Oak' readers, recently adopted for use in the public schools of this State, contain on page 225 of'the fourth book a selection that refers to the Southern army at Shiloh as 'a dark, rebellious' host and, "Whereas, we, the United Confed erate Veterans of South Carolina thus assembled, believe that the principles and truths for which we fought are just as vital today as they were when we left our homes and families to' de fend them with our lives and fortunes, and, "Wherea, we further believe that the books taught in our free school system, where alone our children have an opportunity to learn these truths, should be free from any aspersions oi' misrepresentations, either by direction or indirection; *"Therefore, be it resolved, That we most seriously protest against the use of the above named readers and re spectfully but earnestly call upon the State bqard of education to take im mediate. steps whereby readers or any other books containing any or all such expressions reflecting upon the truth of the cause for which we fought may not be forced upon. our children.''
