Our Dumb Animals, a magazint
published at Boston, Mass., by th<
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals, whose motto is "W<
Speak for Those That Cannot Speal
for Themselves," in its last issu
says, editorially:
South Carolina is the first state ii
the civilized world to outlaw th
steel trap. Her legislature aud chie
executive deserve the congratulation
and thanks of all humanitarians. Th
late Henry F. Lewith of Charlestor
father of a "Kindness to Animals
week and ardent promoter of human
education, did much also in pavinj
the way for this humane legislation.
Autopsy Fails To Reveal Poison
Coroner \V. J. Small of Lancaste
county has received a report upon th
autopsy of M. L. Beckham, whose sud
den death in Heath Springs severs
days ago was thought to have bee
one to poisoning, which states tha
added volatile, mineral or alka
loid poisons" were found. The repoi
Mr, Beckham ate probably poi
soned food was an error as Mrs. Beck
ham had sent no food to him in th
field at tJ^jtime and, according t
The Lancaster News, the belief b
physicians that ha died from acut
indigestion is now sustained.
Frustrated in an attempt to fine a
feminine wearers of short hair as

mayor has offered two prizes, or
