' . V, 0
Columbia, Nov. 26,win a letter to
A. A. Richard aon, chief game war
don, Governor Harvey, in a .letter
commending the official for his ef
fort h in tho enforcement of the fish
and game lawn of the State, nays that
if any magistrate or pence officer in
South Carolina does not ' cooperate
with the game department in the en
forcement of the laws, ho in desirous
of a report to that effect.
In commenting on the letter, the
chief gam*' Warden Haid that he ha<l
given positive instructions to "all
the game wardens throughout tho
State, to enforce the game laws with
out fear or favor,- but always to be
sure that their cases are just ones,
and to promptly report full details
of all trials."
Mr. Richardson said that his de
partment is taking in a great deal
of money from game licenses and
that, this year, the game throughout
the State is abundant. He attrib
utes this to the progressive laws
passed by the South Carolina (Jen
oral Assembly during tho past few
years, and the strong effort being
made by all his subordinates to see
that the laws are rigidly enforced in
mercy.
"Lost" Negro Pardon**!.
Columbia, Dec. 2.--David Bran
num has been freed by Governor
Harvey and next week he will join
his family in Orangeburg county.
He is a young negro man who was
convicted, under pressure of com
munity feeling, of criminal assault
on a two-year old baby girl.'. He
was sentenced to die in the electric
chair. He appealed but ho was for
gotten and for four years he . stayed
in the penitentiary, a "lost prison
er." Recently bis case has been un
earthed, and strong presentations
have been made to Governor Harvey.
The governor commuted the sentence
to seven years in the state prison
and then suspended the three years
yet unserved, on condition that the
governor alone was to be the judge
of the "good behavior" that would
constitute violation of the parole.
Preparations are being made by
the Salvation Army of Columbia for
its 17th annual Christmas dinner.
Dinner will bo provided for 1,000
of the city's poor.
I.IKK TKRM FOR YOUTH.
" * ' _ /
Gaffnry Boy Who Killed Two Small
Companion** Committed to 1'en.
Columbia, Dec. 2.?Hoy Hender
son, seventeen your old Oaffney
boy, convicted of murdering two
small boy*, is now a prisoner in the
state penitentiary, having this week
abandoned his appeal to the supreme
court and begun service of his life
sentence.
Henderson killed Frank and Floyd
Kirby, of Gaffney, two years ago,
and was convicted of murder, with
recommendations to lmercy. The
deed was committed on November
20, 11)20. Henderson gave notice of
appeal, and the case has been in
statu quo. At one time he, was
brought to Columbia for observation
as to his sanity, and State hospital
specialists declared him sane. He
is now a fully ? registered, regular
prisoner at the state penitentiary,
which means that his appeal is aban
doned, and he is to spend the rest
of his young life till old age takes
him, in the state's bastile.
Henderson was fifteen years old
when he committed the crinic of
which he was convicted. He is now
a little past seventeen, young to wear
the prison garb, but against his
youth are charged the lives of two
yotfng Gaffney children, both under
eight yeaVs of age when cold steel
stopped the beating of their hearts.
Barber Shop Pleasantry.
OOvington entered the hotel bar
ber shop and stepped into a chair.
"Good morning, stranger," the bar
ber greeted him.
"Good morning," Covington re
plied. "But really, I'm not quite r.
stranger. I thought you fellows
made it a point to remember people."
'"We do," the barber confessed in
some worriment.
"Well, you shaved me in this very
? ? ? u
chair a little less than three weeks
ago," Covington informed him.
"Indeed!" the barber exclaimed.
Well, I'll have to confess that I do
not remember your face."
"I don't suppose I could expect
you to," Covington admitted. "It
has practically healed up now."
Three Baptist Sunday schools,
Bethel, ltidge Spring and West
Creek, sent a solid carload of provis
ions, etc., as a Thanksgiving to the
Connie Maxwell orphanage at Green

ISO,000 FOR AN IDKA.
Chicago Tribune 1'ayK?Small Fortune
Fur Plan of Building.
Chicago, Dec. 2,?--The Chicago
Tribune tonight awarded the $60,000
prize for the best design for its new
$7,000,000 home, to be erected on
North Michigan Boulevard to John
Mead Howells, of New York, Hon of
William Dean Howells, the novelist.
Raymond M. Hund, of New York,
was associated with Mr. Howell* in
the development of his design,
The second prize of $20,000 was
awarded Kliel Saariner, of Helsing
fors, Finland. He won the second
prizo some years ago in the compe
tition fqr The Hague peace palace
design.
Third prize, of $10,000, was given
Holabird and Roche, architects, of
the new First Methodist church, a
skyscraper temple being built here.
Other prize winners divided $20,
000. , '
The winning design is an immense
Gothic structure, with 20 stories in
the lower 260 feet (the height per
mitted by4the building code) and an
added 140 feet of buttressed tower,
bringing the total height to 400
feet. The tower, flanked by tall
arched buttresses, culminates in an
open parapet about a circular obser
vation platform.
The feature of the winning design
is a novel arrangement by which
the indenting of the tower, made
necessary by the building code, is all
done from the rear, preserving the
Gothic lines in front and two sides.
Work will start-as soon as detailed
plans can be completed.
Uncle Billy.
Born in seventeen ninety-five.
Uncle Billy is still alive;
He sure thinks he was born that year,
Although the date is not quite clear,
But Billy was an old, old man
Before the Southern War began!
Think of the times since he was born,
Night has yielded to dewy morn,
With cotton fields in morning's glow
Looking like drifts of Northern
snow!
His mind begins to wander, yet,
life can remember La Fayette!
Fear not, Billy, when you get
through
The Lord will sure remember you.
