Duke Endowment? issued from Charlotte Tuesday-bring* to light the remarkable service expended the fttate by this worthy Ihetltution within recent years. The announcement shows that the orphanages and hospiUls of South Carolina, during the past five years and including this year's contributions, have received from the endowment practically two million dollars. Such a contribution to the support of health and charity of our state within such a short time, to say nothing of its other valuable contributions to other causes in the state, establishes the Duke Endowment as a most valuable lenefactor of the state at large. Add to the contributions of the past tbu thought that this support is perpetual and will uid the undrtunates of generations yet unborn, for all time, and you have astound ng picture. Such a service is perhaps one of the most beautifuf and commendable rendered South Carolin* uns by any benefactor. A suggestion as to the extent of this service in the past and for the future i? found in the fact that the ! Duke Endowment holds a majority of ; the Stock of the Duke Power Conip- J any, and thus the bulk of the divi- j dends of that great organization will perpetually be invested in this region for the benefit of humanity. The aid just distributed was to .33 lospjtals and 14 orphanages of South Carolina scattered generally throughout the state. Thus men, women and children, white and colored,- in every nook and corner of the state, have jfc'lt the direct benefit of this charity. | Accepting the daily cost per child n South Carolina orphanages *at 89c, he Duke Endowment will actually be solely responsible for the complete upport of the equivalent of 184 orphans in South Carolina during the year. Since its formation, its contributions to South Carolina orphanages have been equivalent to the .full support per year of 756 orphans. The contributions for the year to the 33 South Carolina hospitals, just announced, were for the purpose of partial reimbursement for 271,435 days of free care given by these hospitals to ?their charity patients. The effect of such valuable and extensive service on every walk of life can be easily seen.

Union, Tenn., April 18.?A Saturday afternoon crowd which a sheriff'3 force held off for three hours, stormed the county jail here today, got George Smith, 20-year-old negro, and hanged him from a tree in the court house yard. Smith was accused of attacking and beating a young white girl here . Friday night. Word of the incident drew more than the ordinary crowds into Union today. A mob formed around the jail, shouting: "There'll be a bonfire in the old town tonight." The rush upon the jail was witnessed by hundreds of women and children who were lured out of doors | by the augmented population of the town. Wild cheering greeted the ac' tual hanging. | (Members' of the girl's household told authorities the negro broke into the hbuse last night and tried to ' attack her. She fought him off, they said, badly scratching him on the face and kicking him. He was identified ! by the girl "after the incident.
