'The Record has received the following statement of the facts as to the law in legard to persons holding more than one office in this state, the author of ilie statement being a well known lawyer who has kept himself informed on this subject: I observe the following in your is - ' TT TT sue of yesterday: .viaj. jus. n. xxammond, who Friday was elected a trustees of the Citadel academy, defeating Col. W. ;V.V. Lewis, chairman of the hoard, saM that it is not his intention lo retire from the legislature, but he vill offer for re-election to the house of representatives. He considers that being a trustee of a state college does rot d?sqtia'];l> any more man u:b commission as r.otary. IMaj. Hammond is yn alumnus of the Citadel." I desire to call the attention of my friend. Maj. Hammond, and also to your readers the following: Sec. 535, Vol.11., of t^e Criminal Code reads as follows: ">Sec. 53r>. Assumption of office before qualifying and being commis sioned.?It shall be unlawful for any person to assume the duties- of any public office until he has taken the oath provided by the constitution, and been regularly commissioned by the Governor. The term "public officers" shall be construed to mean all officers of the state that have heretofore been commissioned., the trustees of the various colleges of the state, members of various 'boards, and other persons whose duties are defined by law." Section 24, Article III. of the 'State constitution reads as follows: "Sec. 24. Holding Two Offices.? No person shall be eligible to a seat in the general assembly while he holds any office or position of profit or trust under this state, the United Stats of America, or any of them, or under any other power except officers in the militia and notaries public, and if any member shall accept or exercise any of the said disqualifying offices or positions he shall vacate his seat." Also Article II., sectio-n 2 of the 'constitution reads as follows: "But no persons shall hold two offi! ces of honor or profit at the same time: Provided, That any person holding another office, may, at the same time, be an officer in the militia or a notary public." In construing tnese sections of the statutes and constitution, the former 4 1 T A*? T X'ATI O O attorney general, J. r J<isci ?JJ\slx, u.& j will be found in his reports to the gen- i eral assembly says: "A school trusteeship is an office and a person holding this position can not, at the same time, hold another office in this state." In another opinion he held: "It is unlawful for a person to hold the office of school trustee and. at the same time hold the office of town warden." In another opinion he 'n^ld: "That the probate judge of Union county could not hold the office of , school trustee under the constitution." It would seem from these sections and from an opinion rendered by the circuit court and afterwards affirmed by the supreme court that Maj. Hammond is mistaken in his position, unless custom makes law when the constitution is made applicable to members of the legislature, as there are several of them today violating this same Ja-w. Personally we have no interest in this matter, hut we expect to support Maj. Hammond for re-election and he is the only member of the house delegation of this county that we shall support, and we would dislike to Bee him disqualify himself. BRIM LINER APPAN I IM fUAPfE AG mMANC ill IrliriUUJLi Uti ULiililiniXiJ I ( WMl ttED BY SllWARINK OFF i'ANAKY ISLANDS. The Vessel, (iivrn up for Lost, Steams into Hampton Roads Flying the litrman .uan-<n-?>ar najf. Norfolk, Va? Feb. 1.?Given up for j lost days ago, the British passenger j liner Appam, plying in the West AfriI can trade, appeared like an apparition j in Hampton Roads today, flying the German naval ensign, and with her ship's company under guard of a German prize crew. She brought word of a mysterious German commerce raider, 'the Moewe. which now roams the seas, i and had on board the crews of seven British merchantmen and admiralty transports captured by the Moewe before she seized the Appam and started her across the Atlantic for an American port, with Lieut. Hans Berge of the German naval reserve and twentytwo men in charge. The Appam now lies oil Old Point Comfort, under the guns of Fortress IV'to-nroe. waiting for ihe state department at Washington to I determine her status?whether she is | a man-of- war subject to internment or a German prize. By tomorrow the customs authorities here hope to have orders* to send the ship either to Norfolk or Newport News, where the anxiously awaited British civilians will be put ashore. According to the story, told "with great reserve by Lieut. Berge to Collector Hamilton when he formally re ported his presence in American waters late" today, the Moewe captured the Appam, bound from Dakar, French West Africa, for Liverpool, after a brief show of resistance, on January 16, sixty miles north of the Madeira islands. On board the Moewe then were the crews of five vessels, previously captured, all of whom were transferred to the Appam, Mysterions Raider. From all reports the raider is a converted German merchantman, with a false canvas forecastle, concealing a jif criT-nc nf fnir-lv .liars'A nalibre UO, LLC1 J V4 v On January 17 she engaged in battle an armed Australian trader, the Clan McTavish, which she sank after an exciting combat, with a loss of fifteen men killed on the Clan McTavish. The Appam, which was ten miles away at the time, in charge of the prize crew, steamed back to the scene and rescued four members of the crew of the sinking Clan McTavish, who were struggling in the water. Later, under orders from the commander of the raider, Lieut. Berge headed his prize for an American port and parted company with the Moewe. Nothing has been seen or heard of the raider since, and the L4<ppam steamed across the ocean on an uneventful fvoyage, reaching the Virginia Capes at 5:45 this morning. On board the Appam all told are 452 persons?the prize crew of 23; 20 German r-iviliflns who were on their way to England for internement; 138 seamen captured with the British steamships; 116 passengers on the Apparo i and the Appam's crew of 155. Lieut. Berge claims the Appam is a prize of war, but government officials have not yet accepted this view. She had one mounted rifle aboard when captured, but this was removed by the Moewe, and there were no guns aboard | | when she reached port except sman arms carried by the prize crew. Record of the Moewe. On January 10 the (Moewe captured and sank the British steamship Farringford, carrying 500 tons of copper ore. Later on the same day she captured the British steamship Corbridge with a cargo of 6 000 tons of coal. The Moewe did not sink the vessel, but sent a crew aboard and held her as a UUliiCi . For three days the Moewe was inactive and then the British admiralty , transport Dromonby hove in sight, on [January 13. She offered no resistance and was captured and sunk. Before that day was over the raider had mh and destroyed the British steamship Author, carrying 8.000 tons of general cargo, and the admiralty transport Trader with 6,000 tons of sugar. No ship of the enemy was sighted on the 14th, but on the 15th the British steamship LA riadue crossed the raider's ? ? J.7 path and was sent to the Dotiom, wuu her eorga of $5,000 tons of wheat. Next, day. January 16, there appeared the biggest prize of all, the Jiner Appam, carrying 8,000 tons of general merchandise, including a large quanity of cocoa. Whether the Appam of fered any resistance has not been definitely established. It is said that one or two shots wtre fired, but there was no real fight. Capture of Appam, The Moewe approached tne uner flying the British ensign and exchanged salutes with. her. iWhen she was close enough to cross the Appam's bow she ran up the German flag and lowered the false forecastle, disclosing her armament.. The detailed story f of the capture is *t:ll untold, as 110 one I ' lui-3 come a^iiore except Lieut. Gerge and no one has been permitted to go. aboard except those officials whose Juries required them to do so. Xo one knows w'nere the Moewe jr.? me from except the prize crew aboard the Appam nor where she went after the batTe with the Clan l MacTaush. Apparently all of the op; erations revealed by the arrival of the Appam took place in the vicinity of the Canary islands. j The Appam arrived off t'ne Virginia coast some time Sunday, but dared ; not venture in until darkness fell, and it was near daylight today when &he arrived between the capes. She did ! not sight a single British cr French | man-of-war from the time she parted " ~ t company with the Moewe unui sue eu! tered Hampton Roads. The entire j voyage was without incident, the reg! ular crew operating the ship under the ' German guard. She is said to have flown the British flag until she reached the Three-mile limit. PARKER C?

It was nnaiiy deciaea 10 siuay ureai Artists of t'ne World," and to begin with-the Italian school. ' The idea of co-operating with the College association in the proposed educational bazaar which is to be held in Andercon the last week in February, was also discussed and a definite plan for helping was decided upon. .The alumnae of Anderson college will have a booth at the bazaar, will decorate it witli college emblems and will supply it with fancy work. After the business session Mrs. Kinard served a delicious sweet course with coffee. Tiose present were Hiss Margaret Clinkscales, president;'Mrs. James P.

The senior class was most delightfully entertained at dinner Saturday i c, oTiiror hi* Iffcc Stranflthan head of the department of voice, who is sponsor for the class of 1916. The table was gay with the class colors, lavender and white, and with bowls of violets and pots of white primroses, which further carried out the color scheme. The place cards, whic'n were made by cleverly attaching a kodak picture of each guest to the figure of somp popular advertisement, were a great source of merriment After a delicious five course dinner, an evening a rare enjoyment for the class of 1916 was concluded with the singing of class and college songs. After a hard fought game, the basket ball team was defeated by the Woman's college at Due West last Monday by a score of 34 at 21. Seventeen rooters accompanied the team on their trip and all were royally entertained at the college. On Monday next the Due West team will play a re+urn game here. ^ One of the most enjoyable ?vents of the winter term was the lecture given in the college auditorium Monday evening by Dr. John E. White, under the auspices of the Lanier Literary society for the benefit of the library of the society. Dr. White's sub ject, "Sidney Lanier," was most interestingly presented and the evening was in every way a success. Just before the lecture Lanier's "Sunset" was charmingly sung by Miss Stranathan.
