One of the few men who have ever bested lightning' is a South Carolinian, who lived to tell the tale. He is Marion Padgett, G7 years of age, whose home is at Ridge Sipring. While vihiting hit son, Raymond I). Padgett, a District of Columbia policeman, just across the PoU>mac in Virginia, Mr. Padgett had his ex perience Sunday evening. lie is still unable to get about, but the chances are that' he will permanently recover it is reported tonight. Sitting on the edge of his bed, about to retire for the night, Marion Padgett was struck on the head by a bolt of lightning, which melted the gold rims of his glasses, nearly sev ered his right ear and completely burned the hair from his head anjl charred the shirt on his back. The bolt then tore through the side of the house, taking elapboarding with it. Padgett is In a serious condition from burns and shock. His eighi year old grandson, Raymond D. Pad gett, Jr., who was lying on the bed beside Mr. Padgett probably was un injured. Had it not been for the timely as sistance of his son, Raymond 1). Pad gett, Metropolitan police force, in. giving respirational treatment, Mr. Padgett probably would not have Tived. It is also belreved^that Tubber soles and heels on his shoes were a factor in saving his life. Mr. Padgett is being treated by a family physician at his son's house. ? Robbers Sentenced To Die Chicago, Sept. 17. ? Joseph Holmes and James Wilson, alias Jack Woods, two of five bandits who two months ago participated in a hold-up of the fashiQnable Drake hotel here, must hang for the killing of Frank B. Rod key, cashier of the hotel. A jury in criminal courts so decid ed shortly after four o'clock this morning after nine and one-half hours deliberation, during most of which the jury was deadlocked by two jurors who held out for life imprison ment. The hold-up of the Drake, in the heart of the gold coast district, took place on July 29. Rodkey was shot to death by Holmes when he smiled at the bandit's boasts that he was a bad man and a killer. One of the bandits, Texas Court, was shot to death by police as he was fleeing from the hotel and another, Erik Nelson, was slain after a six mile chase through parks and boule vards. The only one to get away was Wm. Mellonchuck, alleged leader of the band, who carried most of the $4,000 loot. ' The 0 of Holmes and Wilson was that both were feeble-minded and under the influence of moonshine. .'?V ' o . ? Willis Jackson, negro, wanted in eoro^etion with, the murder. last week of W. A.

Fail to Train Children Property, So j Suva Judft Feat her*t one. York, Sept. 14. ? Lack of home training ,on the part of parents and disobedience and waywardness of boys and girls in homes was attributed j by Judge C. C: Featherstone as tho I principal reason for the wave, of law- I lessness ami crime sweeping over South Carolina and the nation in an address to York county grand jurors today. '?Records show that we are having | around 250 homicides in South Caro lina each year," Judge Featherstone said. "Thus far there has been more than 100 in the Stat? this year and we have some time to go." "Children who are not made to obey their parents are not likely to obey and have respect for constituted authorities of the land," he said. "It appears that 'whites are leading ne groes in crime. Three-fourths of the persons convicted of crime in the criminal courts in the Piedmont sec tion of South Carolina last year were white people. "Education is not a panacea of ills, as somo would contend. Records of the State penitentiary show that three-fourth, s of the convicts incar cerated there can read and write. We have gone wild on education anyhow, especially higher education. Thous ands are not mentally competent to take higher education. The Lord did' not intend that every person should -have college education^ ? the ? judge said. Declaring that the of flee of the grand juror was one of the most res- j ponsible in county organizations, j Judge Featherstone begged grand J jurors to lend their aid in law enforce rtient in order that civilization might be saved. Referring again to the failure of parents to require obedience, he de clared many parents stayed at home so little they knew nothing about their children, and that tlfe failure of mothers and fathers to do their duty was the basic cause of lawlessness, which he said, is "one of the sorest spots of our civilization." Escaped Prisoner Captured. The noted rum runner who gave ?his name as Henry Grady Williams, when caught after an exciting chase through Sumter several weeks ugo, and who succeeded in sawing his way to liberty from the county jail, and liberating a check flasher with him, was captured in Charleston on Mon day morning, after an exciting chase through the streets of that city. That capture in some respects was identi- ! cal with the one in Surpter. Williams j was driving a high-powered car at the j time, and his pursuers were in a : Ford, but for the blowing out of one of his tires he probably would have escaped. Officers J. L. Pollard and J. D. ? Did You Get the Concrete Feeding Floor You Paid for Last Year? IF you frt'J your hogs grain on an un paved lot, they waste Irom 10 to 25 per cent of the grain ? or more.

A National Organization to Improve and Extend the Vies of Concrete OFFICES IN 10 CITIES I ' Chandler were sent to Charleston Monday and returned with Williams, who was welcomed back by Sheriff Hurst and again placed behind the bars of the county jail. In turn, Wil liams told Sheriff Hurst that he in tended returning of his own accord. He also told Policeman Dollard that he had made several trips through Sumter since lift get-away, but ! changed his schedule so as to reach 'this city after midnight, when he was 'certain that Dollard would be at home , and asleep. Williams -was captured several ?weeks ago when he attempted to drive a high-powered car loaded with 105 gallons of corn whiskey through the city. He would have made the trip despite the officers who were fol lowing him in a Ford had it not bee)) for the blowing out of a tire. He was given a sentence of $100.00 or 80 days at hard labor by Recorder Harfoy in each of the two cases. The county commissioners at that time demurred at taking him on the chaingan'g, and he was left in jail with a good elec 'trie fan run with current paid for by the county to keep him cool and com fortable, but he escaped by sawing off the iron bars of the cage with hack saws purported to have been smug gled to him by confederates. He now awaits the 60 days. Warrants have been issued for ihim by Federal Com missioner J. F. Blahd in the sum of $2000.00, and for appearance in the circuit court of $.300.00. ? Sumter Herald.
