The sixth annual convention of the
Y. M. C*. A.'s of North and
S Carolina, held in Charlotte, N. C.,
d one of the most successful of the
e series, came to a close Sunday
i | uigi.~ at a meeting held for the special
benefit of the delegates. A meetu?l

and in addition there were the
usual special services for men and

expressed that the meeting had been '
far more than worth while. "It has
more than fulfilled our expecta'

Revenue Officers Laid Off.
Greenville, Special.?Internal revenue
inspectors, several employes
and raiding: deputies, whose services
are not absolutely necessary for the
conduct of offices of revenue headquarters
in South Carolina, have
been told that they can take a rest
of 60 days beginning with April 1.
The information coming: in the form
of a letter from United States Commissioner
of Internal Revenue John
G. Capers in Washington, was conveyed
to four men here this week.
They are: Inspector V. B. MeGaha,
Special Employes J. C. McGravev
and H. B. Hendrick, white men. and
Jas. Brver, a negro, who has drawn
a salary from the government for
looking after denatured alcohol. In
Columbia a like letter has been received
and there it will affect eight
or ten men.
Commissioner Capers says in his
letter that the appropriation for his
department is not sufficient to warrant
him in paying he warrants
drawn by -the revenue men. He
therefore wants the raiding of illicit
stills to cease for two months while
the deficit in his department is being
brushed aside.
Attempt to Kill Policeman.
Greenville, Special.?Five shots
from a revolver in the hands of a
man who kept himself hidden in the
darkness were fired at Patrolman Attaway
early Wednesday morning as
the officer was on his way to his
home . But for the presence of mind
of the policeman in dropping to the
ground when the first shot whistled
by his head he would more than likely
have been hit by the other four
that whizzed above his head. While
on the ground the officer emptied his
revolver in the direction whence the
leaden missies flew, but so far as is
known he did not strike any one.
Officer Attaway has been on the
force for about a year and is generally
regarded as being a man who
strictJy enforces all ordinances and
statute laws and for this reason he
is attacked by an element of lawbreakers
which infest the outskirts
of the citv.
Shot by Brother-in-Law.
I Saluda, Special.?On Saturday afternoon
in the Bethany section of
this county L. B. Sample shot his
brother-in-law, J. D. Pitts, in the
yard of the latter. The trouble, it
appears, grew out of some difference
of a petty nature. Both parties are
white. Dr. Kirksey, who was called
to attend the wounded man, says he
is shot from foot to head.
Negro Involves Barnwell White Man
in Confessing a Murder.
Barnwell, Special.?As the result
of a startling confession made Sun- ,
day by Quitman Johnson, a negro
who Saturday was convicted of the
murder of Perry Ussery last ^JovemM
ber, Chester Kennedy was arrester
at the home of bis father near here.
The negro admitted killing' Ussery
and said Kennedy had hired him and
Ferdinand Grubbs, another negro,
wiju was convicted wun Johnson, to !
kill a man named Holland, and that
he had intended to kill Holland but 1
had shot Ussery instead.
He Killed Two Women Same Day. j
Chester, Special.?The March term
of the Criminal Court for this county ,
began its sitting on Monday mom- j
ing with Judge J .C. Klugh, of Ab- i

port ant case thus far is the re- 1
sentencing of Addison Lawson, col- 1
ored, convicted more than a year ago
of the murder of two negro women '

promptly sentenced to death. '
MNEWS ITEMS
n All Sections of the State and
Busy Readers
A Great Fair is to be Held.
The State fair this year is going
to be unusual and extraordinary in
many respects. The preparations
tint are now going on are looking towards
many new and attractive features
of the annual celebration.
As announced recently by Capt.
Jno. O. Mihley, president, Tuesday
of fair week is to be set aside this
year as "college and school day."
Ng charge will be made for any student
or pupli from any college or
school in this State for admissions
on this day, and any adult, accompanying
a student or pupil on this
day, will be granted half rates of admission.
Students and pupils must
pet their free admission cards from
the proper officers of their institutions
the week before the fair.
All colleges and schools in this
State are earnestly urged to attend
in bodies and to secure admission
cards and information from the secretary
of the State fair. Mr. A. W.
Love of Columbia, as early in October
as possible. Special raiilroad
coaches can be furnished for the
purpose of bringing students and
teachers if the number of passenirorc

bVIU ?ui?a-in, Ul*? aim 11 aiiou^cments
are made in time.
The bench show is to be a feature
this year."* A great deal of interest
has been manifested in this department
and the fair society will increase
the prizes. The aid and suggestions
of all dog owners are requested.
I
Receiver for Haile Gold Mine.
Lancaster. Special.?An application
was made before Judge Klugh
at Chester Tuesday for the appointment
of receivers for the Haile Gold
Mining Company, the application bertig
made by Harry* S. Seeley. of New
York, as trustee for the bondholders,
the bonded indebtedness amounting
to $224,000. principal and interest.
The trustee was represented at the
hearing by Judge Ernest Moore, of
the Lancaster Bar, and the law tirm
of Sutro & Wright, of New York
City.
Judge Klugh granted an order appointing
Cbas. D. Jones, of Lancaster,
and L. W. American, of
Bavon, N. J., as receivers of the
property.
The order directs that the receivcws
operate the property at once, so that
work at the mine, which has been
suspended since the fearful disaster
tWre last year, will be resumed without
delay. The high character and
splendid business abilities of the receivers
named insures the speedy re
st oration of this valubatle mining
property to its former profitable and
paying basis.
Cotton Mills Doing Very Well.
Columbia, Special.?The cotton
mills of South Carolina are doing
very well. There is no unusual demand
for goods and with conserva- |
tive buying prices naturally are not
"booming."
The press dispatches carried this
important item of news: I
A reduction from 4 5-8 to 41-2 j
cents has been made in standard
print cloths. The quotations on narrow
goods remain unchanged. While
the decline will tend to lower the
margin between the cost of raw cotton
and the price of the finished product,
upon which the operatives'
wages are based, it is thought that
the recent reduction in the price of
middling uplands cotton will practically
restore it. Fall River prices are
not confined to Fall River goods, unfortunately.
Fatal Shooting Affair in South Carolina.
Greenvlle, Special.?Jack Fisher
was shot and probably fatally wounded
at Piedmont Sunday by Bob Chastc:r.,
both parties white. Chastain
was arrested and lodged in the county
jail by Sheriff Poole. The cause
of the shooting is unknown. The
physicians state that Fisher can live
but a few hours.

One incident of the departur
which touched Mr. Roosevelt probabl;
more than any other was the presen
tation of a message and gift froc
President Taft by Captain Archibal
Butt, who was chief military aide t
Mr. Roosevelt and who occupies tha
position under President Taft.
Grasping his former aide by tit
hand with a "By George, it is good t
see you again, Archie," Mr. Roose
velt drew the President's messengc
aside to talk to him. Captain But
then delivered President Taft's met
sage with a small package eontainin
a ruler of gold with pencil attachment
It is a collapsible ruler, 12 inches Ion
when drawn out of the end of the per
ci'. On it is inscribed: "To The'.
dore Roosevelt, from William Howar
Taft. Good-bye and good luck. Bes
wishes for a safe return."
When Mr. Roosevelt opened th
pacakeg and discovered the gift fror
his successor he held it up and ex
claimed: "Well now, isn't that jus
too kind of President Taft to sen
this to me and I appreciate it greai
ly."
Turning to Captain Butt he wlii?
pered a message for him to carry t
the White House and said he woul

Makes Last Speech From Gmngplanl
From the gangplank of the steam

speech. He said:
"I want to thank the represents
tives from Pittsburg who have com
all this distance to see me off. 1 am
indeed, grateful and am touched b
their thoughtfulnoss and kindness i:
coming such a long way. I want t

k On Monday .J. P. Whitla. father of
* Willie, the kidnaped boy, received a
note telling him where to go and communicate
with a woman in Cleveland,
a Ohio, who would tell him how to se,
cure the boy. The first plan having
failed on account of the watching of
e detectives, Mr. Whitla went alone,
n found the woman and paid the $10,_
300. He then returned to the Hollcnden
Hotel and waited. The kidnaper
dressed Willie in disguise, paid the
fare and saw him off on the ear. He
e was soon in the arms of his father
t and back to Sharon where the whole
town went wild in reiflieinc over
Willie's return.
Cleveland, 0., Special.?In the aril
rest here Tuesday night of a man and
woman having $9,790 in their possession,
the police believe they have
saptured the kidnapers of Willie
e Whitla. In fact, the woman in the
y sase, who is somewhat befuddled, ad"
mitted that she had been responsib'e
0 for the kidnaping. When placed iD
^ sustody at the central police station
0 she said to Captain Shattuck: "I am
1 the one who planned the whole thing.
There will be trouble for me and hell
0 in Sharon to-morrow."
0 Beneath the woman's skirt was
!" found $9,790. All of it but $40 was
r bound in packages with the original
* slips placed on the money when
v Whitla took it from the banks still
? around it.
* Whitla says he has the numbers on
? the curreucy bills handed the kidl"
napers and the police are comparing
the notes found in the possession of
^ the prisoners with the memoranda ul J
? wnitia.
Sharon people who heard of the arrests
in Cleveland suspect a woman
n well known there. The woman suspeeted
has not been living with her
'lusband for some time, but has been
d making her home there. She is said
to have had intimate knowledge of
the Whitla family ami to have known
chat Mr. Whitla would unquestionably
? give up any amount for the recovery
d of his son.
Gov. Stuart offered a reward
of $15,000 for the arrest and conviction
of the kidnapers.

e On Wednesday Willie Whitla idono

e who took him from school and carried
him through a torturous route to
is Cleveland, then to Ashtabula, back to
x this city and placed him in the house
x in the east end, where he was heid
if until the money was paid. Willie
d also declared that the woman was the

in its present shape, when he declaj

such a bill as that presented to th
House for adoption by the ways an

come a law, and that if necessar
the Senate would remain in sessio
until Christmas, if required to do s<
to pet a bill more acceptable to a
sections of the country. This is th
opinion also expressed by many othe
Senators. They maintain that a clos
analysis will show that such a bi
as that now proposed would be mos
harmful to the interests of the Sout
and that, as millions of dollars c
money belonging to Eastern capital

will never become a law.

I Aldrich Opposes Bill.
II Senator Aldrich objects to the bill
because lie does not like the maximum
and minimum features, the ine
heritance tax. and other equally une
satisfactory parts of it. He especialr
ly opposes the inheritance tax clause
>r because in his opinion, it would conflict
with any of the State laws bearii
ing on the same point. He is also
n strongly opposed to a tax on tea and
d coffee.
i- Senator Aldrich's opposition came
i- as a surprise to his colleagues in the
Senate and to President Taft. It is
)f practically certain that the Senate
o finance committee will figure very
t. largely in shaping up the measure
i- when the Senate gets hold of it. and
as Senator Aldrich is the chairman
is of this committee what he says with
r- respeet to his opposition is taken to
mean that there must be a eonsider i
able amount of rebuilding before the
le Senate will agree to pass it.

"Since that time everything that

Colonel Ooethals declared that reports
of engineering difficulties that
a~ would be met on the isthmus have
a~ been greatly exaggerated,

a "that can be called unusual beyond

elsewhere. There are no doubtfu]

I would promptly make a report on
