CANDIDATES LIBERAL WITH TALK f Two Meetings for Benefit of Beaufort . Voters?>oon Session for Blunton Folk. 4 Beaufort, July 9.?Featureless, except that it was the smallest crowd that has yet attended a meeting of the present campaign; that the audience was composed in very large part of ladies; that it was the first fullfledged night meeting, and that there Vere in reality two bills on the pro' gram today, was the convocation of p* the candidates here today. l ^ * The meeting was held at 8 o'clock tonight, at the court house, with possibly four hundred persons present, a j very large percentage of whom were ] ladies. County Chairman R. R. Legare presided, the gathering being possibly the most orderly and attentive vpt erected the candidates. Of course, the excessive heat, in a measure, kept down any overflow of 'enthusiasm, but there was little chance of anything "breaking loose" in Beaufort, anyhow. Biuft'tonites >"ot Disappointed. By misunderstanding, the voters of Bluifton came over shortly before j noon today, expecting the candidates j to speak at 12 o'clock, as specified, j The candidates of sweet dipsosition, and obliging withal, kindly consented to give a matinee for the benefit of these good people. In consequence there were two meet- j ?. inore tXHor nna in +Vi/% TYiArninor fnr TVi?> 1 J-lfeO bVUMJi V/iiV AU UiC UUVAUiUg *VA buv edification of the Bluffton folk, and the other at night for the city voters. All the speakers, save Attorney Gener. <tal Lyon, Mr. J. R. Earle and Governor' Blease were preesnt at the morningj session. Mr. Lyon was present at thej night meeting, however. Mr. Barnard B. Evans, who was pres- j ent at the morning meeting and at-1 tacked the record of Mr. Lyon, was not j present at the night meeting. Possibly j the only feature of the night meeting, *vas the cordial greeting extended Mr. Lyon. Be it said, however, that there was one healthy hiss that greeted the attorney general. Peeples-Iyon Tilt. After the candidates for railroad i commissioner, Messrs. Cansler, Richards and Wharton, had spoken, Messrs > Peeples and Lyon addressed the voters. Mr. Peeples was well received, his 'doctrine of peace and good will being L acceptable. Tonight Mr. Peeples deI clared that be did not know of any f graft in South Carolina. This Mr. Lyon answered by declaring that Mr. i | Peeples had rather not been in South j y * Carolina recently, or that his eyes i were blinded to what a man seeking j , the office of attorney general should i see. Mr. Lyon made a very effective j 1 review^of his record as attorney gen-; eral. Messrs McLaurin and Carter pleased j their hearers wit*i their espective j claims tor the State treasurership.

A 01KL IS MURDERED A * IN BRUTAL MANNER Child oi 12 Years is Slashed to Pieces. No Clue to Murderer. P New York, July 7.?Julia Conners, a 12-year-old girl, was murdered in a fiendish manner early today, her body, bearing 36 wounds, evidently made by a stilleto, but still with a breath of l ^ *4ife, was found in a vacant lot in the Bronx. The child died without having , regained enough to identify her slayer - further than the statement that "he | was a man." The girl was one of the four chil\ dren of Edward Conners, who lived nearby. I Saturday afternoon she visited Cro I ton, a park, but suddenly disappeared. \ Her parents and school chums kept I up an all-night search without success. / ihe child's little body was literally & slashed to pieces. It was nude except w for fact that it was wrapped in a worn ' skirt. The liair had been cut off. One of the wounds was a stab in the i heart. Her throat was also partly cut j and a stab in the back had pierced the j lungs. Late tonight the police said they had definitely established the fact that j the attack on the girl was made in a ; vacant apartment on the second floor ' of a house beside the lot in which the girl was found. Evidence in the bath room of the j apartment leads the police to the belief that here Julia was murdered. The bath tub was blood smeared and on the floor vfere found quantities of; the girl's clustering brown hair. But j with all these marks of the tragedy, j the police admitted that they had J found nothing which would indicate j who the perpetrator of the crime might be. The murderer had placed his little victim's body in a sitting I position in a box two feet long and one ! j and one-half leet in clothing and cov- ; ered the box with oil cloth. Then he j ibore the child down to the lower hall-: | way out through the back yard, tossed j her into the lot, hid her clothing and escaped. im FAMILY OF 4?> POISONED.

Augusta, Ga., July 9.?It has just j developed that 45 people, all mem- J ibers of the Canady family, near Garfield, Ga., -were poisoned at a family reunion at the home of Mac Canady, on the Fourth of July.

However, if one has the time and inclination to take the proper precautions, very little difficul-! ty will be experienced in preparing j the fruit. Success lies in the proper j i selection of specimens for preservation. As much, iff not more, depends upon the selection and proper handling of the ,fruit and vegetables than j upon the formula used. Never allow specimens to become fully mature, and, to meet with the best success, they should be placed in the preserving fluid fully two days before thor oughly ripened. The fruits seiectea i should he in the best possible condi-1 tion and without blemish of any kind. t After washing in clear, cold water to remove all dust, dirt, spores, or other foreign matter, place carefully in the receiving jar. Avoid handling the specimens any more than is really necessary. After filling the jar as full as possible without bruising the fruit, the liquid should be poured in. Some writorc rwnmmen^ straining: thp li quid through several layers of cheese cloth. This is a good plan. Make the lid air tight and place in a dark room at a temperature of 30 to 40 degrees F. the jars should be examined every few days and if found fermenting the liquid should be removed^ the fruit rinsed, and new liquid used, varying* the proportion of chemicals. rfltae following formulas bave been used quite successfully in preparing fruit for exhibition. 1. To vegetables such as squashes, cucumbers, onions, dissolve one pint of pure clean table salt in every gallon of water used. Allow this solution to stand twelve hours then strain through several layers of cheese cloth and pour over vegetables. 2. For strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, and currants use clear water-white kerosene, but he sure that no water remains on the berries. 3. For pears, peaches and plums use one quart of glucose and one-half ounce of formaldehyde to every gallon of water. 4. For apples use one and a half ounces of formaldehyde to every gallon of water. 5. For fruit in general, use one Dint of glycerine, five ounces powdered borax to every gallon of water, then after fifteen days add two ounces formaldehyde to each gallon for dark I fruits, and two ounces of sulphurous I acid to all light colored fruits. C. C. Vincent. Associate Professor of Horticulture. Thoughts of a Bachelor (*irl. Women may have originally been ! man's rib; but from the way in which he is arraigning and assailing her in the newspapers nowadays she appears to have been his bone of contention. No woman wants her husband to be a woman-hater, but she doesn't object j to his disliking them each, individually. A man's heart is not an organ, but a pianola, which may be easily played upon by any woman who knows the combination and presses the right button. Let your husband put his feet all over the furniture an^ his ashes all over the floor and he will be blissfully happy and fancy himself "master of the house," even though he isn't allowed to say a word about another thing in it. If the average man would display j as much care and fastidiousness in choosing a wife as he does in choosing a golf club or a pipe he would not j so often wake up to find himself mar- ' ried to a total stranger. The summer girl's lines are cast in pleasant places; but all the good fish ing goes to the stenographer whose lines are cast in the unpleasant down down offices. If there is 110 marrying in heaven, at least a woman will be spared the agony of having to fix over her last year's halo to make it look exactly like this year's Pans creation. The man who is envied by all his fellows is the one who is strong enough to eat anything he likes without getting indigestion, clever enough to do anything he likes without getting caught and ingenious enough to flirt with any woman he likes without getting engaged. <S> , J <$> <?> STATE CAMPAIGN DATES. <$> <S> <8> Barnwell, Friday, July 12.
