Last year, and ever since the Din gley tariff law been been in force the articles you have been buying was exceedingly high. The people pro tested against the high prices caused by the Dingley tariff for many years, till at last the Republicans could withstand no longer the clamor and promises to revise the tariff and re duce the exhorbltant,rates of bounty the people have been paying to the extortionate protected Interests.

SHORT A Trotted Mao of Andtrson Ruins His by Perry Woods, the little son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Woods, left their home Monday afternoon at about 2 o'clock and strolled down to a lake on Brushy Fork creek in Mr. Mill’s pasture. By and by little Perry Woods returned alone; the afternoon wore away, and still the other two boys didn’t come home. The parents naturally became alarmed, and the Woods boy was questioned as to where they were. No satisfactory Information could be obtained from him, however, and Messrs. Ell Wilks, J. B. Carter and others organised a party and proceeded to the swimming place to look for them, fears being had from the first that some accident had befallen them on the creek. Their clothes were found on the bank of the lake, which Is about 150 feet long and several feet deep In places and the search began. All the party were good swimmers, and but little difficulty was experienced In finding the bodies and bringing them to the shore. The two boys were found only about four feet apart. One little body was rigid, while the other was not. When Messrs. Ell Wilks and J. B. Carter reached Chester In quest of coffins no statement had been obtain ed from Perry Woods as to the de tails of the tragedy. It is supposed, though, that he was along when the two little Chalk boys were drowned. Neither of the vic tims could swim, and It Is likely that they ventured In beyond their depth and were engulfed in the water, which Is deep In places. MUST HAVE BEEN CRAZY. North Carolina Farmer Rescued Wife Just In Time. At Patetown, Wayne County, N. C Sunday night James Bivens instantly killed his brother, David, with a hoe. The slayer surrendered to the au thorities at Goldsboro on Monday morning and following a preliminary examination was released on |200 bond for his appearance at the Au gust term of court. The tragedy Is enshrouded In mys- Efforts Will Be Made to Eradicate the Terrible Disease by the Medi cal Boards. A Washington dispatch says the hook worm, or the "lazy bug,’’ as It has been shown to exist in the South ern States, according to the Investiga tions of the physical condition of the srnSy recruits, will form an interest ing chapter In the forthcoming report of the surgeon-general of the army and will probably lead to widespread effort on the part of the boards of health In th Southern States to erad icate this disease, which a few years ago was brought prominently to the attention of the world In connection with the Porto Ricans. After being treated all of the Infected soldiers gained in weight and improved In physical condition generally. Following this investllgatlon of the recruits, it was discovered that "uncinariasis,” as hook worm is call ed In the medical world, was a com mon disease thoroughout the South ern States. It is estimated by the army surgeons that 50 per cent, of the recruits in the army today from the rural districts of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana will show hook worm infection. The Investigation has been pro gressing quietly during the last six or seven months, so that when Surgeon General Torney makes up his annual report he will have much data to prove the pravalence of the hook worm among the soldiers en listed from the Southern States. These recruits passing though the army depot at Fort Slocum, N. Y., were examined to the number of 110, 109 of them being infected with the parasite. West Virginia, North Car olina, South Carolina, Georgia, Flor ida, Alabama and Tennessee all sup plied the recruits that were Infected Th e Columbia Record says the knowledge now In the possession of the government corncerning the hook worm has been secured largely through the investigations of Dr. C. A. Stiles, who spent a year or more In Columbia and South Carolina for this purpose. He went Into the cot ton mill towns and out into the country. Including the sand hills, liv ing among the people In their homes and examining the children In the schools. His observations are tba basis for the present announcement.

Mr. Taft himself has been circularised and In various ways hss been made to feel the weight of this showing up. Every dry goods merchant In this country almost is already an active agent for the Democratic party. The Importers in New York and elsewhere along the shore have been circulariz ing retailers all over the country, the merchants’ associations and the var ious representatives of those concerns which have all to lose and nothing to gain by the raising of duties have bean sending out letters and circu lars to the men and concerns which they deal with In the small towns < and the merchants of the whole coun try are studying the tariff as they have not studied It before. I was In a little town In the South the other day and to my great sur prise I found a small dry goods mer chant who had never before been known to take any Interest In na tional politics talking tariff. He took me behind his counter and showed me gloves that he sold for$2.25, but which, If the proposed Payne rates on gloves go Into effect, he would be compelled to sell for $2. He showed me ladles’ hose, which he was now selling for 25 cents a pair, the kind the greater number of wo men buy, and he had figured out that If the proposed Payne duties on stockings go Into effect he would have to sell those stockings for 35 or 40 cents. And he took me all about his store and showed me cotton and woolen goods of various kinds which would have to be raised in price. No It does not make any dlffererce whether a man Is a Republican or a Democrat, If he Is a dry goods mer chant he la going to raise the price of bis goods so sure as this bill goes through, as it seems now destined to do. Mr. Taft has been told this, and he has been made to realize it. That's the reason he is Ajaxlng so marvelously. He hears a rumbling of the political earth in America and be must bestir himself. Seeing how unpopular juat at this time Mr. Aldrich and Mr. Cannon ata, who, by the way. are no worse and no better than their party, the president does not want to appear to ' these two unpopular party leaden want him to do. More than that, he wants to have the peo ple believe that ha It la who la going to drjgfrth# two arch enemies of the peefriw Into doing his bidding, and ~~Sal»BatBrto-Dld that the tariff come down.

After felling his brother, James Bivens carried his wife home and by vigorous effort saved her life. The dead man's wife, a sister of Mrs. James Bivens, the only witness to the fratricide, testified at the hearing that the killing was justifiable. The motive for the dead man's attack on his sister-in-law Is unknown. PELLAGRA IN CHICAGO. Discovered Among the Inmates of the Asylum. Pellagra, a mysterious plague, as fatal as leprosy and usually found only In Southeren States and tropical countries, has been discovered in the insane wards at the Dunning asylum at Chicago. Three aged women are now suffering from the malady and six other women have auccumed to the disease within the past year. At the time of their death the Dunning physicians were mystified as to the nature of the ailments. A suspicion that pellagra was the affliction of th e women was confirmed by Dr. C. H. Lavlnder, a surgeon of the United States public health and marine hos pital service, who for the past two months hag been making exhaustive study of the baffling disease at a laboratory at Columbia, S. C. Twelve Year Old Negro Boy Makes a Bad Start. lAit Monday night Dr. Domi nick of Prosperity returned from a patient and, hitching hls horse In the yard, went into the house. He returned In a few minutes r\nd was astonished to find that his horse and buggy had disappeared. Search was begun but not until Tuesday morning did he find which way tht thieves had gone. It was fiojud that they had been seen going to wards Saluda river. Parties In auto-j information received along the road, one of the cars was able to follow the thieves, who were driving hard. About three miles from Leesvllie Messrs. J. B. Harmon and Jas. Hunt caught up with the thieves. They were captured and brought back to Prosperity, and it developed that one of the thieves, was a little negro of about 12 years of age, and his com panion was a negro picked up on the road. Sheriff Buford came down and car ried both to Newberry, and gave out the Information that the little negro was wanted for breaking out of jail, and also for stealing a watch and a bicycle. Pushed from Window.- Mrs. Mary Peek, who lived on the fifth floor of a house in West Forty- eighth street, New York, was either pushed or fell from a front window of her apartment to the street before daylight Tuesday morning, and at an hour later died in the Flower hospital.

TOOK BAP’S FUNDS And Lost Them In Speculating In Cotton Fntture*, Disappears, Leav ing a Written Confession, Which Qemptotoly Bhumefl Hls Fri—ds, Who Had Trusted Him. J. T. Holleman, who for two years has been cashier of the Bank of An derson, and who for four yeara waa assistant cashier, has been found short in his accounts approximately $35,000, and has left for parts un known. In the cash drawer of the bank he left a letter, addressed to President B. F. Mauldin, in which he made a clear cut and complete confession saying that he lost the money is speculating In cotton futures. Rather than face hls friends, he said In the letter, he would flee, and this he did on Sunday morning, when he left supposedly on hls annual va cation. The people of Anderson are severely stunned, for there was no man In Anderson who enjoyed the confidence and esteem of the people more than did Mr. Towmes Holle man. The board of director Issued the following statement Tuesday: ‘‘The board of directors of the Bank of Anderson make the follow ing statement In regard to the short age of J. T. Holleman In hls accounts as cashier, which came to the knowl edge of the officials Monday night: After carefully looking Into- the af fairs of the bank we find the amount will be about $35,000, and inasmuch as the capital stock is $150,000 and the surplus $225,000, making a total of $375,000 to which Is added the liability of the stockholders, $150,- 000, making a total available for creditors of $525,000, the public can realize that the standing of the bank Is not Impaired and that the business of the bank, with Its well-known abil ity to accommodate Its customers, will not be lessened. The loss will be charged off to-morrow, when the bank examiner ascertains the exact amount.” This statement was signed by Pres ident B. F. Mauldin, Vice President J. A. Brock, Attorney Joseph N. Brown and five directors. No statement ever Issued In An derson occasioned greater surprise and consternation. The officials of the bank knew nothing of the matter until Monday night. Mr. Holleman left the bank Saturday afternoon, supposedly with the intention of go ing away for a vacation of a week o two. He told hls associates In the 1 bank of hls intention last week and he left with their fullest permission, and they did not dream that there was anything wrong. He Is sup posed to have left the city sometime Sunday. It Is not known where he has gone. The bank was opened as usual Monday morning and everything ran smoothly during the day. When Mr A. H Sharpe, assistant cashier, went to balance the cash that night he found In the cash box a letter ad dressed to Mr. Mauldin, the presi dent. He also saw that there was something wrong with the cash. Mr. Sharpe sent for Mr. Mauldin, who was at hls home and the letter was opened and read. In It Mr. Holle man made a complete confession. He said he had been speculating In fu tures and had gone from bad to worse and that he had become des perate and decided to leave as he could not face hls exposure. He turhed over all his property to the bank, but this will not come near covering the shortage. The directors of the bank were summoned, and af ter examination they placed the facts before Mr. Giles Wilson, the state bank examiner, who happened to be In the city on one of his regular trips, and he Is now going over the booIrvr-The directors, however, have already satisfied themselves that the shortage Is not more than $35,000, and of course, this will not In any way cripple the bank, which Is one of the strongest In the up-country. Everything will go on as usual as the bank has a large surplus fund, seven or eight times sufficient to take care of the shortage. Mr. Holleman, In hls letter,'said he first began speculating in futures about a year ago wbn $1-00 which be had saved. He losr. that anr thtn borrowed $1,000 fr> m ths bank w'lh which to recoup hls loss. This soon went and other sums In rapid succes sion. It is an old story of a small beginning by a man who was the soul of honor and had no Intention of de frauding anvbody. Mr. Holleman Is a native of Wal- lalla and has lived In Anderson about twenty years. He has a wife and several children. He has held several responsible positions In the city and has been with the Bank of Anderson about six years. He was frugal in hta^ hablta^. ateady and in dustrious, and had always lived with in hls Income. He was Just about the last man In the city that would have been suspected of being short in hls accounts.' Ti«.»hA.Ouq.cement o( tie trouble will be received with the greatest sur prise throughout the city and county and State, and there will be the deep est sympathy for him. He was uni versally liked. It Is not known where he has gone and no statement was made as to what steps wonld be tak en to apprehend him. All of hls friends and the bank director* were too stunned to map out any coarse The Fertilizer Tex Brought to e Big Sum During the Year Ending June The finance committee of the board of trustees of Clemson College has finished its inspection of the books of the treasurer for the year ending June 30.

A dlspatcl/from I^xlngton says a prominent farmer from the Hollow Creek section was there and stated a fact that the law governing the sale of cocaine was being openly and flag rantly violated in his section. The habit among the negroe was rapidly becoming Intolerable, in that farm ands were using the dope to the extent of being useless. He says that negroes carry it around In their pockets, selling It at church gatherings, and In some In stances they become wild and almost unmanageable. One negro is said to have had as much as $12 worth of the drugs at one time. It Is said that it is much easier to peddle co caine than whiskey as It can be more easily concealed. It Is thought that a prominent gentleman living in one of the near towns is acting as a kind of a whole sale dealer, and that the negroes and whites that have become addicted to the habit get their supply from time to time. It Is said that a negro moving into the community from Prosperity some months ago started the use of the drug among the negroes, alid the habit has steadily grows, until most of the negroes in the setlement use it in preference for liquor. Both men and women use it, it is said. It will be recalled that not many weeks ago the mayor of the town of Leesvllie fined the violator of the cocaine law $500. He was tried on five different counts convicted and fined $100 on each count. One ne gro, Mack Manning, is now In Jail having been sent up by Mayor Hen drix. The officers are going to work on the case reported and it Is thought that the guilty parties will be ap prehended. WOULD BE FIEND LYNCHED. Ordered Two Young I Julies to Get Out of Buggy. King Green, a would-be negro fiend, was lynched and his body rid dled with bullets at Gum Branch four miles out from Eastman, Ga., Mon day morning. The Misses Nicholson, daughters of Sam Nicholson, one of Eastman’s prominent citizens, while four miles out from Eastman, were met In the road by the negro, who caught their horse by the rein and told them to get out, that It was hls horse and he wag going to have It. The young ladies whipped up their horse and tried to get away from him but he held on until frightened by thefr ■cnwwi. Dogs wer® sent from the county convict camp and placed on hls trail, and after & run of several hours the negro was captured. The Sheriff and hls deputies, while on their way-to town, war* met at Gum Swamp by a posse of 175 men. who took him away from the offl- vers and strung him up to a sapling, after which the crowdly dispersed.

A Farmer Tells How to Get the Most From Cowpea*. “In just the proportion that we In crease the acreage of the cowpea. In that proportion will the soils of our section be Increased In fertility," says Mr. A. L. French, a successful North Carolina farmer. In the Pro gressive Farmer. He then goes on to say: With us, It ususally follows a win ter grazing crop that has been aown on corn stubble, but we are not averse to turning a good sod of clo ver and timothy, and often do this, plowing the sod in the late winter. Then as soon as the corn crop Is planted, we start to harrowing the pea land. And the deeper the plow ing Is done and the better the seed bed Is prepared, the better results we obtain in the pea crop. No crop we have tried will respond better to good treatment than will the pea crop. We usually prepare the land well with the disc, Acme, and spike- tooth harrows, sow the peas broad cast by hand and cultivate them In with the spring-tooth cultivator. Then level the land with the smooth ing harrow. On our best land we generally use three-fourths to one bushel per acre of good clean Clay peas and a peck of Amber cane seed. This makes the best combination for cow feed of any thing we have ever used. On the thinner fields, where we sow the peas for soil Vmprovement primarily, we use the pea alone, broadcast, one bushel per acre. Then where we want the crop to be grazed by hogs we put the peas in rows two feet apart. We plant these with our two- row corn planter. When we have grown a crop of peavlnes that will make as fine a quality of hay as jve have ever been privileged to feed, we make hay of it, every acre, as we have never been able to figure out the economy of making manure direct of peavines, when every ton of pea hay is worth fifteen dollars when fed to first-class cattle or sheep, and the manorial value of the product reduced very little by being passed through the animal. When we can make hay of peavines at a cost of from $1 to $1.50 per ton and return the manure back to the land for 25c per ton, we be lieve It Is good business to do so rather than to plow under the crop in the raw state and Just bury $13.25 with each ton so plowed under. Doesn’t the proposition look reason able? So we put the big six-foot mower Into the pea field when the pods are getting brown, let th® hay lie In the swath until thoroughly wilted, then rake Into good sized windrow* and leave until pretty well cured. If the weather continues fair, bunch and haul to the barn at once, but If rain threatens, cock up Into large, high cocks and leave them alone until the weather clears, when the cocks are taken apart, sunned and aired and sent to the barn with a rush.
