A lessen For Young Mcs
nayaf- .
The following from the Spartanburg
Journal shows what a yoiui^
nmti with energy may accomplish
find we produce it with the hope
that it will inspire some of our
hoys to greater things:
Young man, you say you haven't
been given a fair chance in life to
make something of yourself-? Look
at William K Gorey, who has just
been elected president of the U.
M. Steel Corporation at a salary
that would make a man rich in ai
year. Do you think he had a
' ?'pull?"
He did. Fifteen years ago Gorey
was pushing a wheelbarrow in the
yards of one of Carnegie's mills at
IJrnddoek. And this was his "pull"
He wheeled so much more iron in
a day tbun the men at his elbow !
that ho was soon made foroiimn !
over them. Tn other words, Corey
wax n't afraid to ''do $2 worth oi
work for n dollar," n fear that be
sets many young men today.
When Corey became foreman it
, was noticed that ho got twice as
much work out of his men an the
other foreman. Ho didn't swear |
fit his men. They never grumbled
jit their boss. They respected ,
him. Carnegie began promoting
Corey, And Corey worked hard.
He had only a fair common school
education. Ho studied at night.
He took up a course in a correspondence
school. In time ho !>?>camp
0% expert chemist. Hy and
by he was an authority on armor
plate. Tie knew moie of armor
plate than any one in the mills. {
There was only one thing for Cargenie
to d?x He made Corey
superintendent of that department
Corey increased the output. That's j
all. Only much more iron than
viic iiiiu at Ins elbow."

The prospect of serious trouble
over llitHsian occupancy of Man- [
fsliuria is far from being averted, j
Kmaiu has apparently settled down
to a |j"r!n<)nent occupancy of the I
province, which means that it has
to nil intents and purposes an-I
nexed Manchuria to the Russian I (
domain. Grent Britain and .Japan
pre greatly irritated at the situation,
and Japan especially is pre- \
pating for war with her formidable '
foe in the north. If .Japan goesi(
to war with Russin, as now seems ; ;
probable, England can scarcely
prevent being dragged into the
conflict, and England is hardly
the only power that would take a
quick rap at the caar. It would

thinker and and preacher, and is
?mo of the best known ministers
of the Southern Presbyterian

some time to devote himeelf to

A ease of more 'linn passing interest
whs that of the town against
Messrs. (Mms. Suborn niul Lee

Mayoi W. I?. IMeaeliam.
Tlie charges under wliieli Suborn
and Warren were t'ied was tliat
of la ing drunk and disorderly and
interfereing with an ollicor as to
Suborn. while Warren was chareed
with being drunk and disorderly
and carrying a concealed weapon.
The defendants were represented
by W. I<. Wilson, dr., of Ro-k
II ill. while tli" town's side of the
argument was upheld by Mayor
Meaelmm
< )llieers Johnston and ledk were
the fust witnesses exatniued and
testified that on Saturday ilight.
July lltli, Saboni and Warren
were on the streets in a drunken
condition, and after being warned
to leave the streets, continued to
curse and swear and refused to
hiiivh (iii l.iili-r in tlie nnriif
however, lie* men started out
White street ami Warren stagireie<l
into the ditch several times.
After going a short ways the nun
stopped again and began anew
their boisterous talk. The ofliccis
then went up and arrested Warren.
whereupon Sahoin ginbbed
Johnston's arm and, with an oath,
told him that he ( Johnston) could
not arrest Warren. Johnston, in
self defense, then struck Suborn
over the head or shouldees with a
stick. The two men were then
brought to town and gave bond.
Sahoin and Warren, being sworn,
said that they were here on the
night of the Hh. hut denied the
charges. Moth admitted to having
taken several thinks of whiskt y
during the evening hut not enough
toeause either to become intoxicated.
They also denied that < >fficer
Johnston had \\arm d them
previous to the arrest to get oil' the
streets. Warren said that he did
not stagger into t he ditch in White
street. As to the arrest, defendants
said they were walking along
White street in the direction of
their home and had reached a
point near the home of .Mr. Jus.
(Irier, when someone slipped up
behind and jerked Warren around.
At this Sahoin turned to investi
gate and as In* did so, was alru -k
over the lu?ml with a stick by
Johnston, who .-aid that Sahom
had been talking about him and
that lie (Johnston) would hit him
every time ho met him. They
then cause to town and gave bond.
Several witnesses were put up
for the defense and each testified
that they saw Warren and Sahom
a short time b. fore the arrest and
that they showed fio signs whatever
of drunkenness.
As to the indictment against
Warren for carrying a concealed
weapon, defendant produced two
warrants that he mi d he had on his
person the night of the arrest
which he had been deputized a
special constable to serve.
Attornev Will.then followed
with a strong argument lor the
defence and at. bi o'clock the ease
was turned over to the jury. It
was thought at one time that the
jury couldn't agree, but aft? r being
out for two hours a verdiet of not
guilty as to Saboin, and guilty as
to Warren, was rendered. (Don 11
sel for Warren then gave notice of
a mot ion for appeal.
Hut the court did not adjourn
with this. Upon his release of I ho
charges preferred against him, Saboin
went at onco to .Magistrate
MeKlhaney and sworo out a war
rant for Oilicer Johnston, charging
him with assault and battery of a.
high and aggrevated nature. The
papers were at once served, a preliminary
held and <)l!ieer Johnston
was hound over to the circuit
court in the sum of $200.
