Inactive
Liver
"I have had trouble, with
an Inactive liver," wrote Mrs.
S. Nichols, ofv 44t2 Spencer
St., Houa|on, (Texas. "When
I would gel Constipated, 1 would
feel a light, dizzy feeling In my
head. To get up in the morning
with a Ughtucss in the head and
a trembly feeling is often a sign
that the stomacM is out of order.
For this I took Tht4for4't
Black- Draught, and without a
doubt can say 1 have never
found its equal In any liver
medicine. It not only cleans
the liver, but leaves you in such
a good condition. 1 have used
It a long time, when food does
not seem to get well, or the
stomach is a little sour."

pastor of St. Augustine's Roman
Catholic church, Bhot and killed the
Kev. Father Henry O'Neill, pastor of
the church," as they sat at the dinner
table tonight, then calmly went <o the
telephone and notified the police an I
coroner.
Dillon lired four shots all of which
took ettV'ct. As Kathel; O'Neill fell
dead, Dillon turned to the Rev. Father
McOollough , the only witness of the
tragedy and habded him a phial con
taining holy oils, with the request that
he administer the sacrament of ex
treme unction at once.
According to a statement the as
sistant pastor is rthld to have made to
policr and county officer# he was
"driven to fury" by alleged ill treat
ment at the hands of the dead priest.
"He treated me with disrespect
ever since I Ca#ne here 13 months ago
fi'om Rattle Creek," ho is reported as
having, told the authorities, "He as
sumed toward me the attitude of a
czar.
"He treated me as a little hoy, re
fusing to permit me to visit the fami
lies of the parish or take any part in
the lire of the parish. I protested in
vain against his attitude and tonight
when we quarreled over the matter at
the dinner table, 'he ordered me to
pack mj^nclongings and get out.
"I got up from the table and went
upstairs to pack up, but it was a re
volver, not a suitcase. I packed. 1
picked up ;i phial of holy oil and then
went downstairs, where Father O'Neill
and Father McOollough were eating.
I intended to him a chance to
confess and to repent before I killed
him, but, as 1 advanced into the room
with the hand holding the revolver
extended. 1 saw him grab a salt cellar
to throw at me and 1 fired twice. Af
ter that 1 do not recall very well
what happened. "

lice art1 searching for two strange
white tnon who tame to Columbia
with a well defined scheme to fleece
m.ivhants out of ^oods and euh* Tho
two worked their game Saturday on
Main street and approximately 30
merchants cashed worthless cheeks.
Clothiers, motor car dealers, electric
al 9!Ul>ply firms, grocers, dry goods
stores and other business houses lost
through their activities.
The swindlers presented checks
bearing the name of "Houston-Doty
tympany" Of . Columbia and were
printed to be payable at the Palmetto
National Hank. ? Each check was
marked "salary check" to cinch the
deal. Merchants fell easy victims to
the plans of the swindlers and when
the first check reached the bank Mon
day, the bank officials learned of the
swindle. One check after another
began to float toward tho bank and
all met the same fate. There was no
such firm in business and consequent
ly there were no funds on hand to
meet the rhecks.
The swindlers were prepared for
all comers. They gave the name of
Parks and Kdwards and one gave his
address where a vacant lot stands on
Price street. Another vacant lot on
Hampton street was the "hQmfl?..4*i
tho second swindler/ The check flash
ers pickt*<l up about $900 in cash and
merchandise during the ' whirlwind
campaign. The largest check to
reach the bank Monday and yesterday
in amount specified $37.60. The av
er*M amount of the checks was $80.
City officers have little hope of ap
pi rhrnding the strangers who CAQH3

taking their losses philosophically.

Warm Weather. "
Columbia, April 16.? With ih^ com
ing of warm weather migration of
negroes from South Carolina vo poinu
in the northern industrial area hn
grown to considerable proportions, *1.
though probably not as heavy us
year ago, according tq, reports gath
ered here today by the Columbia
State. The reports from sections of
the state where the heaviest vxodun
was reported a* year ago say that *
many negroes, who-Avere hadiy di?.
coyraged several months ago because
of the ravages of the cotton boll w&
vil, are becoming convinced that they
have a good chance to control the pest
and are determined to remain on thi<
farpis. ?
The movement, the report nay*,
is regarded generally as an economic
one, the sections suffering moM from
the boll weevil experiencing the heav
iest emigration. The State, coin,
minting on the situation, says that "it
is generally accepted as a tVct that <
at the present time the whites out
dumber the negroes in South Caroli*
na. This condition has not existed
heretofore in this State. This wax
brought about largoly by the migra
tion of negroes from the State."
The reports all tell of a shortage of
common and farm .labor with ?om* -
points asserting that often help can
not be obtained at any price.
