Economic (Conference Delegates
Columbia.?Governor John G. Itichards
has appointed John A. Law, of
Spartanburg, David R. Coker of

Just Like An Ostrich
A medical authority says that a
person who tries to cover up skin
blemishes and pimples with toilet
creams and powders is just as foolish
as an ostrich that buries Its head in
the sand to avoid danger. Skin eruptions
are nature's warning that constipation
is throwing poisons into
your blood stream and weakening
your whole constitution. Remove the
constipated condition and you will
strengthen your system against disease
and clear up your disfigured
skin. The best way to do this is
with a course of Herbine, the vegetable
medicine that acts naturally
and easily, which you *can get at DeKalb
Pharmacy, "Camden, S. C.
I MRS. SPRINGS LO8E8 FATHER
Tragic Death of T. M. Jones in
^ - Tennessee Town
(Pulaski, Tepn., Record)
Thomas. Meriwether Jones, aged
72 years, died at 9:15 o'clock Sun
hclay night of injuries sustained ubout
two hours earlier in the evening
when he was struck by an automobile
at the corner of Third and Wast
Madison street as he was on his way
to church.
It was not known until Monday
whose cur had struck Mr. Jones,
when it developed thut he is supposed
to have met his death through
having been hit by a car occupied
by Dick Holt and John Nelson, Jr.,
both of whom are sons of prominent
men.'
Mr. Jones was' found lying in the
street about thirty feet west of the
street crossing. Friends found hiVn
lying near the curbing and rushed
him to the hospital, where, upon
examination it was found that his
condition was crjtical. He was unconscious
at brief intervals, but could
give no information about the tragic
occurrence. He had a scalp wound
one at the base of the brain, ami
one leg was J'ractured in two places.
He was injured internully.
At about noon Monday young Holt,
who is the son of Hen Holt, well
known mail carrier, after talking
with .his mother, asked that the
sheriff hear a statement from him,
and Mr. Hutler went to the Holt
home immediately, where he heard
the hoy's account of the occurrence.
Later he heard John Nelson's statement
and states that they coincided, i
The latter is the son of John Nelson,
Sr., L. & N. Railroad agent here. I
The boys both state is was rain-1
ing hard at the time of the accident
and they did not see Mr. Jones or
any other obstruction of any kind
in their path, but .that they felt the
impact of a blow of some kind and
thought that they had hit a traffic
sign, which they knew was at the
edge of the sidewalk. After driving
around they returned to see if that
was what they had hit and of course
found that it was not. In the mean
time Mr. Jones had been found and
removed to the hospital. It was not
until they learned later that Mr.
Jones had been run over that they
had thought of having hit a man.
Both boys are over 21 years of
age. The car in which they were
I driving belongs to HoH^ a^nd he^ was
going over 25 miles on hour.
On account of the rain very few
people were out of doors and as a
result nobody saw the accident. But
for the fact that the two young
men voluntarily gave out the above
infqrmatibn, the death of Mr. Jones
would have remained an unsolved j
mystery in all probability.
No charge was lodged against the
tw6 boys pending the arrival of Mr.
Jones' children.
Mr. Jones was the son of the late
W. K. Jones, prominent educator
and .president at one time of Martin
College. He was the father of Buford
H. Jones, vice-president of
Dunn and McCarthy, manufacturers
of Enna Jettick shoes; of Lawrence
Jones, general advertising manager
of the company, both of whom live
in Auburn, N. Y., where the factories
of the company are located;
of William K. Jones, head of a cotton
brokerage firm, with headquarters
in Liverpool, England; and of
Mrs. Leroy Springs of Lancaster, S.
C., well known social and political
leader.
Arrested For Moonshining

the use of sugar or other harmful
ingredients, and sold it on credit,
and gave anyone a drink who wanted
I it. He was under the impression
that becausfe he made absolutely pure
liquor he .should be exempted from
prosecution.

to serve six months for housebreaking

Columbia.?Wilbur Cumbco and
Will D. Kales who are being held for
fatally shooting LeGrande Cumbee
and seriously wounding his father,
Sabb Cumbee, as they were traveling
through "Hell Hole" swamp in Berkeley
county Monday, were placed in
the state penitentiary Wednesday afternoon
by Berkeley county officers.
Restores Old Road
Bamberg.?The historic old road
between Charleston and Augusta,
which one hundred years ago was a
main stage coach route between the
two cities, is now once more open
to traffic for at least part of its
length. The building of Route 6
by Denmark and Route 23 by Bamberg,
however, resulted In the old
highway becoming an important link
between the two roads. V
