Famous Publisher Dies Aboard His
Yacht in Siberia
O
? New York, March 13. ? Edward W.
? Scripps, who rose from reporter to
one of the greatest factors in Amer
ican journalism, and then retired in
1920 to "play dead" and seek quiet,
died of apoplexy last night aboard
his yacht, the Ohio, in Monrovia Bay,
Liberia.
Mr. Scripps, at the height of his
success, owned 28 newspapers, many
of which he had founded, controlled
thp United Press Association, serv
ing hundreds of papers with spontan
eous news and also controlled a large
feature syndicate.
His aim was to establish his or
ganization so that they might be
self-sustaining and his retirement
was credited with a desire to see if
he had built them so they could Op
erate without his supervision.
Then, with responsibilities on
younger shoulders, he sought rest
and quiet whic^T was unbroken until
his death, yhich was announced to
his office here today in a cablegram
to Roy W. Howard, his associate.
Four yeras after his retirement
from active work he turned the con
trol of his enterprises over to Rob
ert P. Scripps, his son.

Politician* la and Around t)ie State
House Framing Up k>
Columbia, March 14. ? Definite de
velopments in the political situation
are beginuing to crystallize as the
general assembly , Renters its final
stage. The annual session of the leg
islature, especially in campaign
years, always furnishes abundant
material for speculation to the polit
ical prophets and observers and ?this
year's has been no exemption.
The statement of Senator Roach S.
Stewart, of Lancaster, on the floor of
the seiyto last week, that he would
retiro to private life after his present
term as a legislator expires, came ai
the denoui^pement^f much gossip as
to. his future political career. He had
been mentioned in connection with
tho race for the United States senate,
but the speculation revolved princi
pally around the probability of his
seeking to succeed Governor McLeod,
who having served two terms, will
not be eligible, under the unwritten
law of South Carolina, for a third.
E. Roy Stone, of Greenville, who
claims to have had much success in
past years as a political prophet, re
cently announced that tho Lancaster
senator would in all probability bo
the next governor of South Carolina.
Tho candidacy of Leiut. Gov. E. B.
Jackson, of Wagener, for the gover
nor's chair, was announced several
days ago, when ho was quoted as say
ing that unless something unforeseen
occurred, he expected to be in the
race.
Carroll D. Nance, of Laurens,;
chairman of the houso ways and
leans committee, looms large in all
gossip about the race for the govern
orship, but so far he has not com
mitted himself.
Other candidates, either announced
or regarded as almost certain en
trants, include Major John G. Rich
ards, of the state railroad commis
sion, and George K. Laney, former
state senator from Chesterfield, both
of whom have made the race in prev
ious 'years.
Dr. Olin Sawyer, house 'member
from Georgetown, has deprecated re
ports that he was grooming himself
for the contest, but it is regarded as
a foregone conclusion that the voters
in the Democratic primary in August
will have a large field from which to
choose their next chief executive.
Besides Senator Stewart, the only
member of the legislature mentioned
conspicuously as a probable candidate
for the senate against Senator E. D.
Smith is the speaker of the house,
Edgar A. Brown, of Barnwell. Mr. |
Brown, like Mr. Nanco, has kept his
own counsel, so far as any commit
ment is concerned. A report has
been received in Columbia that James
F. Byrnes, former congressman from
the second district, who made an un
successful campaign two years ago,
is also considering contesting for
Smith's seat.
R. H. McAdams, of Abbeville's
house delegation, is one of the an
nounced candidates for the long list
of minor state offices to be filled in
the coming primary. Mr. McAdams
stated Friday that he had decided to
run for the office of commissioner of
agriculture, commerce, and* industries,
now filled by J. W. Shealey, of Rich
land, who was appointed by the gov
ernor to succeed the late Bonneau
Harris upon the latter's death about
! three months ago. Mr. McAdanur
has been a member of the house for
six years, serving tho last two as
chairman of the agricultural commit
tee, and also being recognized as head
of the unofficial "farm bloc."
All state offices filled by the people
will become vacant through expira
tion of terms next and {it'i*
expected that there Will bi a large
number of candidates Comprising the
campaign party that will ni&kti, the

Stubborn Coughs
Quickly Stopped
This New Way
It is often surprising how the most
persistent, hacking cough that not only
robiypu of strengt h and sleep, but often
leads to more serious trouble, yields
qoicldy to a simple but wonderfully
effective treatment,
This treatment is based on the pre
scription known as Dr. King's New Dis
covery for Coughs. You take ju^t one
teas]>oonfu! at l>ed time and hold it in
your throat for 15 or *Jl) beconda before
swallowing it. The prescription has a
double action. It not only soothes and
heals soreness and irritation, but it
quickly removes the phlegm and con- ,
gestion which are t he real mme of night
cough jug. So with the cause removed,
coughing stpps quickly, your sleep un
disturbed, and the entire cough con
dition soon disappears.
Dr. King's New Discovery is for
coughs, chcsl colds, sore throat, hoarse
ness, bronchitis, spasmodic croup, etc.
Fine for children as well as grown
ups ? no harmful drugs. Economical,
too, as the dose is only one teasnooa
ful. At?all good druggists. Ask for

Bottom Drops Out of River
Shagpn Springs, Kan., March 16. ?
The bottom continued today to droo
out of the bed of SmoKy Hill river
near here and tonight the ground
was still sinking although its motidn
had slowed '? u$ somewhat. A hole
slightly over 300 feet in diameter
has formed in the river bed since
yesterday morning. Its, depth is <16i>
feet and it is partly filled with water
that rushed in when the crater bfe
gan forming.
/ The cause of the phenomenon re
mained a mystery tonight although
many theories had b<jen advanced.
Word was received from Lawrence
that R. C. Moore, state geologist, had
attributed it to underground caverns
slowly rising.
It has been established by German
police that a man -who committed
suicide at Tivoli, Italy, on February
6, was Dr. Karl Hau, alias Stau, once
a lawyer of Washington, D. C., who
was convicted in Germany in 1906 of
'the murder o{ his Wife's mother,
Frau Molitor, at Baden-Baden in
1906. Ite was convicted and sen
tenced to death, his sentence beinj?
later commuted to life imprisonment.
He was released in 1914.
A verdict of manslaughter was re
turned in a Towson, Md., court Sat

year-old son, Eld ridge, to death.
left when stratum of lime stone had
been dissolved. This, it was pointed
out, however, does not explain the
peculiar odor of sulphur that many
have noticed around the crated One
theory is that is An old volcano
showing signs of life. The state
geologist is expected here tomorrow.
When first seen the depression was
about 50 feet across and of unknown
depth. ?ince then it has grown
steadily. A low rumbling noise and
a cloud of dust appearing over the
spot gave the first indication that
something had happened. There was
?no earth tremor of consequence.
The pit was. measured late today
and found" to be 169 feet deep. The
