If you are old enough to have been a boy within 20 years after the War Between the States, you probably heard the old folks talk of it, as we did. That is equally true if your folks were from a Northern State or from the South. It was the topic of a gre&t deal of discussion in those days, and it helped to keep alive the bitterness between North and South long after the war. It is the old Andersonville military prison, at the edge of the town of Andersonville. The relocation of route 49 places it on the main highway for the first time, it is .officially called the Andersonville Nn! tional cemetery, bec'nuse here sleep some of the thousands of Union sol-] diers who died not fromrbullets but from privation. But it will always best be remembered as a prison. It was a prison without walls of stone. An open field, surrounded by guards. Food was scarce in the Confederacy in those days. Even water was scarce in the prison, until a spring was discovered?a spring reputed to have burst forth miraculously from the earth after a stroko of lightning. The death list of prisoners at Andersonville was frightful. But so was that at Johnson's island, a Union prison for Confederate captives. So was the death list at Camp Alger during the Spanish-American war, where young American soldiers died like flies from "embalmed beef." After the war Capt. Wirz, commandant of the prison, was executed by Union order. Not many years afterward the Southern ^olk erected a monument to his memory in the center of the town of Andersonville. Its inscription bears testimony to the sectional hatred of that day. So-do the inscriptions on some of the monuments within the park erected in memory of the United dead. It is perhaps well that through all these years And.ersonville has been forgotten, unvisited, save by the official care provided by the government. But it is almost ancient history now?that it is a spot too interesting to be passed hurriedly by motorists who find themselves near it. In "My Personal Column" in the Albany Herald, H. T. Mcintosh recently wrote of the new highway and the old prison. He said in part: "Some of the inscriptions on these memorials are not pleasant to read for they were carved in a period when bitterness between the North and South over the war was still acute. It was that same bitter spii it which caused no little resentment in the North when the Wirz monument was erected?not in the national cemetery, of course, but in the middle of a street of Andersonville. "Wirz was the Confederate commandant of the Andersonville prison camp. The record is clear that he did the best he could in a difficult, even desperate, situation. He could not obtain medicines for sick Union prisoners, for medicines had been made contraband of war, and the South could neither manufacture nor import them. The principal ration of the prisoners was what their guards also ate?bread made from corn meal and salt pork, with a limited ration of fresh vegetables when they could be obtained. It is now the solemn verdict of medical science that it was pellagra that caused most of the deaths in the Andersonville ^prison?pellagra caused by the steady corn meal diet. There were more Union prisoners in Confederate detention camps than there were Confederate prisoners in Union camps, yet more Confederate than Union prisoners died, according to the official records." Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, New York, opines that "thoughtful men evebrwhere are alarmed at the stupendous borrowings which are going forward" over the world. He says that these borrowings must some day be met, either by payment or repudiation. Neal Myers, pharmacy student ot the University of Oklahoma, at Nor^ man, is charged with the death of Miss Marian Mills, co-ed beauty queen of the university, 20, who died last week at the home of Mrs. Hazel Brown, fraternity house cook, who told authorities that the girl had been taking drugs in an effort to avoid motherhood. Myers has not yet been arrested. Pennsylvania is asking for the extradition to that state from Roanoke, Va., of Robert C. Kent, Jr., who is being held in the Virginia city on suspicion of having murdered Mrs. Mary Jane Hastings, whose dead body was found near Stroudsberg, Pa several weeks ago, not long after Kent had left Roanoke with the woman in hi* car. He returned to Roanoke without her and a few days later her dead body was fouad. * LI. 1 . Lightning Bolt Does Many Queer Things A freak bolt of lightning Wednesday afternoon struck a ehinaberry tree at Jenkinsville, snapped the head from a moccasin hidden in a hole in the tree, jumped some eight feet to a parked automobile and made two small indentations in its top, plowed up the ground for some ten feet and threw dirt to the top of a house about 80 feet distant. The flash was followed by a deafening crash of ' thunder. E. L. Wright, Jenkinsville, an agent for the Equitable Life Insurance company, working out pf Columbia, was telling about the bolt yesterday. He said he had gone to Jenkinsville, in Fairfield county, to take dinner with his daughter, Martha, on her 12th birthday and with other members of the family. He parked his coach near the ehinaberry tree and [about 4:30 o'clock the bolt struck. About five minutes before Martha had gone to the car to put up the windows. The car was about 30 feet from the house. The lightning first struck the tree and jumped to the car, striking it on top above the driver's seat and coming out under the right front wheel. It tore a furrow about ten feet long "as though a plow had made it," Mr. Wright said. Mr. Wright rushed out to the car which was covered with sand and loaves and-bark from the tree. By the steps of the house the head of a snake was found, and a boy climbed in the tree and in a hole found the body of the moccasin. Mr. Wright got in his car and drove it off, it apparently being undamaged except for the small scorched area where the bolt struck. No rain fell from the cloud, which was apparently some distance away when the bolt descended. It is. rare indeed when an automobile is struck by lightning, they being insulated by the rubber tires. An insurance man, asked about the percentage of insured cars struck by lightning, said, "Never heard of a car being struck by lightning." Mr. Wright had his car in Columbia yesterday and showed to his acquaintances the marks made on the vehicle by the bolt. The ignition was not damaged in any way, apparently, nor were the lights affected.?Friday's State. A bolt of lightning striking an electric wire at Camp Jackson killed Jesse L. Diekerson, of the 117th Field artilery, Alabama national guard, Wednesday afternoon. He was 20 years old and his home was in Evergreen, Ala. Nobody else was injured by the bolt of lightning. '* Two young girls, love sick, attempted to take their lives in Atlanta, Ga. One was successful with a bullet in her breast; the other seriously shot might possibly recover. They were disappointed in their love . ilTairs. College Wins Cup For Fifth Time Clinton, S. 0., July 21st.?For the fifth time the Presbyterian college K. O. T. C. unit has won the General Proficiency Cup offered for the past twelve encampments at Fora McClellan, Ala. This cup is given to that unit having the highest total rating in military and camp activities. No other school in the Fourth Corps Area, comprising the states of Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Ceorgia, Tennessee', Florida, North and South Carolina, has won the cup more than three times. The P. C. unit, consisting of the men of the rising Senior Class in tjie Reserve Officors Training Corps, were trained by Capt. R. E. Wysor, Professor of Military Science and Tactics, and Capt. W. B. Blanton, who accompanied the corps to camp for the past six weeks. In addition to the Proficiency Cup the Blue Stocking boys had the highest ranking in rifle marksmanship. James Dooling is the new head of the Tammany Society of New York city, succeeding John F. Curry, who was kicked out. It is now said that Tammany is dominated by the national administration, the first time such a thing - has hapened since the War Between the States. Farm wages in North and iSouth Carolina are the lowest of any state in the nation, the department of agriculture announces. Brewer Gold Mine To Open Again The Brewer gold mine, near Jefferson, will soon l>o worked on a large seale. A mining corporation from North Carolina has secured the mining rights and a plant is now being installed there and* will soon bo in operation. A newly discovered process will bo used. The plant is managed by an expert gold miner from the Klondike. Brewer mine, one of the . largest in the state, has been worker! intermittently for more than a hundred years and the gold ore in sight has* hardly been scratched. The Government has record of more than a million and a half dollars worth of gold that has been produced by the mine. A hoot 1KP0 the mine was owned by Senator Hearst, of California, and was shut down in 18'dti under injunction on account of the process used, as the cyanide that wont .from the stump mill into the creek destroyed vegetal ion. It is expected that a large number of men will be put to work as soon as the installation of the machinery is completed.?Choraw Chronicle. r * Camden Theatre Week Beginning July 27 j FRIDAY 4'SHOOT THE WORKS" with Jack Oakie, (Beno Bernie, Ar lints Judge and Alison Skipworth.
