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.
' Rash, city patrolman, charger! with
the murder of Kek Knuckles, negro,
who hurl been terrorizing a community
in the suburbs. Police were summoned
to arrest him, he resisted, attar-king
the officer with a flashlight.
Contractors To Use S. C. Labor.
Columbia.?The state highway department
doe* not propose to allow,
nor will it permit, its.funds to be pair!
for out-of-state labor, outside material
and foreign-owned services when
"willing South Carolinians can ho
. hirerl, South Carolina products anrl
materials can be bought, anrl South
Carolina owned services can be secured
at prices just as reasonable
and just as equitable as those pair!
without the state," C. E. Jones, chairman
of the highway commission, told
contractors present for the road letting
in Columbia Tuesday. Approximately
1.000 contractors and machinery
men were present. Bids were recepted
for $5,250,000 worth of highway
and bridge work.
Jailed For Killing.
MeCormick.?Kirk E. White is
lodged in the MeCormick jail as the
result of the fatal shooting of Fred
Mims late Monday afternoon near
Clark Hill. Mims died while en route
to an Augusta hospital and White immediately
called up the sheriff and
surrendered. It is thought White will
claim self defense.

Dangerous Business
Our rio'mach and digestive systems
are lined with membrane which is ;
delicate, sensitive and easily injured. I
I? is dangerous business, then, to use J
medicines containing harsh drugs, i
salts or minerals, when we are con- ,
stipated. In addition to the possibility
of injuring the linings of our digestive
system, these medicines give
only temporary relief and may prove ,
habit forming. The safe way to relieve
constipation is with Hcrbine, [
the cathartic that is made from herbs, i
and acts in the way nature intended. >

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."

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.
