HLAQUB TO HANG IN OFFICE Geiuraal Walker Makea Gift To New Governor of State ^Jolumbitt Record) A hai)(f carved oaken wall plaque, presented to Governor-elect John G. Richards by General C. Irvine Walker of Charleston, Aho was a colonel of the 10th South Carolina regiment of the Confederate army at the same lime that Major Richards' father, Rev John G. Richards, was chaplain of the unit, will hang on the walls of the governor's office in the state house during the term of the new l>ovcrnoi in office^ in accordance with the wish which the veteran expressed in making the presentment: "That it will serve to keep alive in your memory the supreme sacrifices your father and his comrades made in the momentous struggle for free government in the Sixties." 1 he plaque itself . is about eight inches square, and is a remarkably well executed specimen of flat wood carving. It is finished in the natural wood color, and bears the relief of the 10th regiment's flag?rent by shells, and battle scarred?as it appeared at the close of the War Between the States in 1866, In the upper corner i? the state tree, a Palmetto, and in the lower is the title: "Battle Flag 1861-6." 1 he father of the governor-elect was made the chaplain of the 10th regiment upon the outbreak 'of the war, being a Presbyterian preacher who was highly respected and esteemed 'by the members of the unit at the time of its organization, and he served in that capacity throughout the war . with General Walker, who was at that time a colonel. The two were thus intimately associated in those adverse days and there grew up between them .? mutual regard, which is still demonstrated in the gift of the colonel to his comrade's son. During the war, General Walker served the South with distinction, and since that time, his life has been e record of devotion to the welfare of his native state, particularly with regard to the collection of matters of historical interest and importance in connection with the days of tho Sixties. He was chairman of the commission which erected the monument to the women of the Confederacy on the state house grounds, in which office he was affiliated with the governor-elect. " He explains that he has "too much leisure for a man of active mind," andjjas taken up amateur flat wood "cfhvmg for his own amusement. Nor1 does the quality of the execution ol the carving betray any lapse in the activity of the aged general's fingers, and, quite to the contrary, only goes to vouch for the remarkable faculties of the distinguished Confederate, who is now past 80 years of age.

Negro Boy Killed The Rembert section was tl^e scene of .another killing which occurred last Sunday afternoon on the farm of Mr, Tom Polk Sanders. It appears that two negro boys, Alexander Thomas, aged 9, and Edward Williams, aged 18, started playing together which resulted in'roygfc play apd then to fighting, when Thomas drew a cheap knife from his pocket and stafcbe^ the other in the chest, the blade penetrating the heart. The Williams boy ran off a short distance and then fell dead. Coroner Scale was notified and held an inquest Sunday night whfclr~*esulted in a verdict that Edward Williams came to his dsath from a knife wound in the hands of ^taxandwr Thomas. The boy wa* arrested and lodged in jail to await the aiding of the court of general sessionsy/ On account of the age of the priswsr thero is some speculation as to what will be done with htm even if It can W proved that the killing was A>m with malic* aforethought.?<Sumte^ierald WKANBHT MAN ARKK8TKU * +r mmtmtmmmmmmmmrn "*V"' Stole Money JKrom Foreign Missions Board of Baptists Richmond, V?.f D*c, mart* to obtain the release from jail of George N. Sanders, former treasurer of the foreign mission* board of the Southern Baptist convention, were expected to be made today while officials of the convention sought to diamine the exact shortage in the bolt's accounts. Sanders was arrested late yesterday on a warrant charging the felonious theft of $112,000. Court was not in session and ho was remanded to I jail. The warrant was sworn out by Per-I cy L. Tiller, detective-sergeant, after! a conference between officials of the mission board and Commonwealth's Attorney Dave Satlerfield. .It charged that "during six years past" San- I ders, "did unlawfully and feloniously steal, take and carry away United States currency to the amount of $92,- 1 ; 000, the money and property of the! foreign mission board of the Southern Baptist convention, a corporation ex- I isting under the laws of the state of | Virginia." j I The convention will sustain a loss,! the Rev. George W. McDaniel, president, has said, despite whatever amount is realized on Sanders' bond of $25,000 as treasurer and property I and equities in insurance valued at J $30,000 which the former official has made ovdr to the board. The Rev. Mr. r McDaniel struck an optimistic note in a statement made public last night. j "The grave apprehension felt as to the effect of the treasurer's defalca- J tion upon the people at large is be-| ing relieved by their assurance of j faith in the foreign mission board | and pledges of continued support," he J said. j "One layman has wired an extra j .contribution of $1,000 accompanied by j a letter of sympathy.

V LARGEST COTTON CROP High Murk Reached in Production of Fleecy Staple Wash iag tori, Dec. 8. A tidal wave of cotton has swept the South this season and reached the high-water murk for all time with a total of 9,809,000,000 pounds of, the foamy lint. That total was the preliminary estiI mate of production announced today by the department of agriculture, which made allowance for Home loss of open cotton still standing, from beating storms and for the tendency of growers to leave low grade cotton unpicked because of the low prices. The crop reporting board estimated production at 18,018,000 bales of 500 pounds gross weight, each containing 478.5 pounds of lint* with 21.5 pounds of bagging and ties. The census bureau reported that 14,044,000 running bales had been ginned December i first. . The huge production, which cxoeeded the previous record crop of 1014 by more than 1,100,000,000 pounds, was the result of the largest acreage ever plunted to cotton. For the belt generally the weather of the season favored the <jrop;^"fertilizer wjw used freely and boll weevil damage was surprisingly small. Abandonment of acreage between June and December was smaller than the average of the last ten years and the yield was 83 pounds more than the ten year average, it being estimated at 187 pounds per acre. ?

He was at once brought to the Tuomey hospital late Wednesday afternoon where it was found that the shot ranged upward tearing away the muscles of the chest afnd neck and exposing one lung and a large, blood vessel, but neither of them were 1fcnetrated.
