Sheriff Offers
Novel Excuse
Xewton, N. C., Jan. 16.?When
.Sheriff Burrs came into his office
here smelling definitely of alcohol,
officials and associates looked askance?'but
the sheriff said he could
explain.
He with several deputies went out
to raid stills and they found one of
50 gallons capacity and destroyed it.
One of the raiders went until they
found another near a highway. It
was a steam outfit and was flanked
by 10 barrels of beer.
The sheriff and deputies were destroying
this when Barre fell in onen
barrel of the beer mash. He got soaked
100 per cent.?but said the alcohol
stayed on the outside.

The South Carolina railroad commission
has sent an order to the
Southern Bell Telephone company to
reduce its rate at all exchanges in
this state 20 per cent, and the surcharge
for French desk instruments
from 50 cents to 25 cents. This action
followed lengthy hearings by "the
commission, and the commission says
the new rates will give the company
a return of from six to seven per
cent. Long distance tolls are not affected
The company is given 20 days
to put ?the reduced rates into effect.
What the telephone company will do
about it was not announced at once.

Crime Is Prevalent
Most Among Y oung
Columbia, Jan. 16.?Crime in South
Carolina is most prevalent among
younger people, J. N. Peartnan, retiring
superintendent of the state penitentiary,
said in his annual report to
the legislature.
"The most deplorable /apt," Pearman
said, "is that there are 861 of a
total population of 1,262 under the
age of 80 years and a large proportion
of thie number are young white
men."
An attached record showed that 275
inmates of the penitentiary are under
20 years old, and only 166 are 41
years of age or older.
Approximately 602 men and women,
more than half the prison population
las?t year, were convicted of some
form of stealing, Pearman said. He
interpreted this as indicative of hard
times and laxer ideas of "mine and
thine."
The population of the penitentiary
practically doubled itself during the
past four years, the report set forth.
There wore 687 prisoners in 1929,
769 in 1930, 981 in 1981, and 1,292 in
1932.
The largest group of convicts were
serving from ocne to five year sentences.
There were 177 prisoners
under sentence for life.
The prison population consisted of
638 negro .men, 555 white men, 55
negro women and 14 white women,
the report continued. The largest
number, 150 came from Charleston
county. Calhoun county sent up the
smallest contingent, two.
Vocations of the prisoners as listed
'by them included u "golf teacher,'**
and an "Indian doctor." There were
also two florists, a coppersmith, *1
marine engineer, a radWoperator, and
a prisoner who candidly announced
his occupation as "bootlegger."
Laborers, farmers arfd textile operatives
.contributed largely to the
ranks of the prisoners.!
Pearman resigned a si superintendent
of the penitentiary defective January
1. The penitentiary board has
elected .Malcolm Scarborough superintendent.
Charles Harmon was shot to death
"at Gaffney \at the heme of Dave
Revels,, and the coronet's jury ordered
Charies Kendrick held for his murder.
Both men are just over 30 years old.
Kendrick claims self-defense. Both
men have*policq record#, hut the cause
of this shooting was not ascertained.
Kendrick served part of an eightyear
sentence in the North Carolina
penitentiary several years ago for
i participation in the slaying of Frank
j Butler, of Burke county. About - a
{year ago, he was shot and wounued
j by a Gaffney policeman. Harnrion
was shot in the thigh about three
months ago, and in a shooting a
J shooting a month ago he was sprinkled
with birdshot.

Chase Results In
Big Liquor Haul,
, rtr& - j
" I^nca.ster police had n couple of <
exciting chases \Vith alleged bootleg- :
gers on Wednesday night and as a
result a man who gave his name as ;
R. B. lewder' of Charlotte was ar
rested and placed in the county jail <
and word was received here that 1
Claude Copeland of thia city was
held in the jail at (Camden after be- (
tng pursued by Officer Gardner out
of this city, being eventually arrested
at Pontiac by Camden police.
Lowdcr was seen by Officers Gardner
and Kingstaff as he was entering
the city and the Charlotte man immediately
took to llight on seeing the
local officers who were headed south
at the time while Lowder Was headed
north. The chase led from Main
street down Elm and then down Catawba
street. On rounding I^eroy
street corner Lowder was going at
such a rapid rate that ho left the
road And he abandoned his car in u
cqtton field. He was found in a reclining
position a few minutes afterward
by Officer Angus Uugins who
had joined the chase.
In the automobile which Lowdcr
was driving was found more than
100 gallons of liquor. It was the biggest
haul made for some time.
Word from the chief of police at
Camden was to the effect that Claude
Copeland of this city was arrested at
Pontiuc with a charge of reckless
driving being placed against him. It
was not said as to whether liquor was
! in the car but he was suspected of
carrying liquor when he was chased
by Officer James Gardner Mr. .Gardner
started in pursuit of Copeland
near Brooklyn and the chase led
down High-way 26. This man was
driving a V-8 Ford and he was able
to outrun the enr driven by Mr. Gardner,
although the latter has a car
which is high ge&ved.
The second chase took place but a
short time after Lowder was arrested
and both were witnessed by a number
of people.
According to word from the Camden
police Copeland hit another car
somewhere in the vicinity of Blaney
but kept Otf going. He is alleged to
have struck a Packard car doing considerable
damage to the fenders.?

DANIEL GABRIEL FAHRENHEIT
Inventor of Thermometer Was Typical
Peck's Bad Boy
Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit, the man
who invented the mercury thermometer,
and whose name has been pcr'
petuated throughout the English(
speaking- world fop the pSVt two centuries
"in connection with the invention,
was apparently a typical Peck's
bad boy in his youth, writes G. D.
in Tycos.
This fact is indicated in a letter
dated January 21, 1707, which was recently
found in the archives of -the
City of Danzig, Germany. According
to the letter, young Fahrenheit, at the
age of 21, was causing his guardians
so much trouble that the aid of the
iCity Council was requested to aid in
shipping him to the Dutch East Indies.
The plan was not successful.
The letter, addressed to the council
reads:
"We, who have been named as t the
guardians of the minor children of the
late Daniel Fahrenheit, have sent his
son, Daniel Gabriel, a minor, to Amsterdam,
by his own consent, to serve
in an office, in the hope that he would <
learn to conduct himself properly. But
he has behaved regrettably that, in
order to protect the interest of his
brotherq and sisters, we have been ob- j
liged to sequester part of his capital, 1
and have requested him through hie
patron to turn a new leaf.
"But he has paid no heed, he has
reeumed his former practices, so we
have been put to not a little trouble
j
and pains to try to bring about a
change for the better in his mode of *
life, but without being able to do any- *
thing with him. We have Anally, on (
his own representation, decided to .
have him sent to the East Indiee, for
which purpose we dispatched him to
^ms-terdam a few weeks ago and sent
>rder to a certain merchant (firm) by
:he name of Johannes Droogenhorst
ind Son to help him to a place with
he East India Company, which was
ionc. But when the time came for
lim to present himself he failed to
rpponr, and-,- according to n report
hat has come in, he has gone to the
>ad again, and resumed his former
way of life. Because we can see
lothing ahead for him except deduction
and dire ruin to his temport!
well-being, we guardians ask the
?onorable Council, as his supreme
ruardians, that we be authorized to
nstruct Droogenhoret and Son, of
Amsterdam, to place him under treat
and send him to the Easf Indies
it the earliest opportunity."
