Chinaman Saved For Death. Ab Woo Dak San sat in hi? cell at Santa Fe, N't?w Mexico, condemned to die for killing another Chinaman he /wnm offered hi? life if he would submit him?elf for scientific experimentation. Dr. i'olk Richards of the United State* Indian Hospital at Albuquerque, together with other medical men, wanted to learn throuKh inoculation whether the germ of trachoma ? an eye disease prevulent among the Indian* which whh isolated a few yearn ago by the Japanese scientist, Dr. Noguchi, wan really that germ. The disease sometimes cause* blindness, but is not fatal. While the condemned Chinaman hesitated over the choice many protests against the scheme flowed in to Gov. Dillon. The problem, which uttructed wide attention because of its unusual nature, was fmully solved when an Albuquerque man volunteered to submit himself to the experiment in the name of science and for the good of humanity. And Woo Dak San was no longer bothered by any troublesome decisions.?The Putbfinder. Acquitted in Negro's Death. Spartanburg.?A jury after .'10 minutes' deliberation, acquitted C. M.

' I July Hottest Month Ever Recorded Washing-ton, Aug. 1.?July, 1030, passed into history today with pre- j llmihary figure^ at the weather bureau indicating it was the hottest month ever recorded. While reports from all of the weather stations have not been analyzed, a compilation of temperatures registered at the larger stations shows it was hotter for a longer time and over a larger area than in any previous period since temperature records were established. From July 4 to July 30 not a single day passed without a temperature of 100 or hotter being officially regis- j tered at someplace in the country. This was^ exclusive, weather bureuu : officials said, of such points as Phoe- j nix and Yuma, Arizona, where 100 is u summer commonplace. The coming of August brought no sign of relief from the crop-devastating and water supply menacing drought which also has set a record j for duration and extent of territory j affected. The July hot spell was the worst ' the South ever experienced. Fort j Smith, Arkansas, with seventeen j days of temperatures of 100 or high- ! er, set the pace for the nation. | Shreveport, I^ouisiana, with twelvo i days of century marks, was second 1 and Little Rock, Arkansas, and Lin- i coin, Nebraska, tied for third with eleven days each. In July, 1001, the previous record! month for torridity in the United j States, Fort Smith had 13 days of 1(H) or higher and Shreveport had j only three. Last month Memphis had i eight days in the 100 class and only three in July, 1001. Huron, South Dakota, had nine this July and six in 1001, while Nashville scored nine and five respectively. Displaying the traditional conserv- j - * ?w? " " ! atism of the weather bureau, J. B. Kincer, chief agricultural meteriologi*t, said predictions of amateur j "weather sharks" that August will ! l>e another scorcher "are a bit premature." "August usually averages a shade J cooler than July," he said. "I will say i that the prospects of there being an| other spell like the recent one are | very unlikely and there is some con: station in that." i?t v Death of Mr. T. E. Davis. Bishopville, July 30.?T. E. Davis, XI, prominent planter and banker of Hishopville, died at his home here tonight after an illness of long standing. Funeral services will be held from the residence Friday morning at ! 10:30 o'clock. Mr. Davis' success as a planter and financier placed him in a position as one of the county's most prominent residents, but ill health and age caused him.vto withdraw from business some months ago. The end was hastened by a'stroke of paralysis suffer- j ed recently. Surviving him are six daughters, Mrs. i/ove Hearon of Bethune, Mrs. J. R. Reams, Mrs. J. D. Stuckey, Mrs. E. P. Stephenson, Mrs. H. A. Stokes and Miss Grace Davis of Bishopville, and two sons, T. E. Davis, Jr., and George Davis of Bishopville. Mrs. Davis preceded her husband in death by only a few months. Arrested For Theft. Lynchburg.?Willie Morgan of Lynchburg, confessed to robbing the store of S. J. Thomlinson & Son of Lynchburg July 12 and he implicated Ned Norris and Efraim Pringle of ( Timmonsville, who he said took the i goods from Lynchburg on the ice waJ gbn on which they work. The three were bound over to general sessions court. General News Notes Customs officers discovered twelve Chinese stowaways on- the steamship Fairfield when that vessel reached New York frpm Havana, Cuba, Sat,-* urday. The Chinamen said that they had paid $1, 500 each at Havana to be landed in Ne\v York, but could not say to whom they had paid the money.
