TUESDAY’S ELECTION Left Only Aiken, Beaufort, Charles* ton, Florence, Georgetown and Richland Counties in the Wet Column—All the Other Thirty- Six Counties Are in Dry Column. Further returns received from the dispensary elections held In the vari ous counties Tuesday have removed all doubt as to the result and show that fifteen of the counties went “dry” and six “wet.” The balance In Florence, Georgetown and Beau fort was cast for the dispensaries, and in Kershaw for prohibition^ so that the line-up is as follows: For Dispensary—Aiken, Beaufort, Charleston, Florence, Georgetown and Richland. For Prohibition—Abbeville, Bam- bsrg, Barnwell, Berkeley, Calhoun, Colleton, Dorchester, Fairfield, Hampton, Kershaw, Lee, Lexington,^ Orangeburg, Sumter and Williams burg. In a few of the counties the re turns are not complete, bdt those yet to be received will not affect the general result in any county. Georgetown went wet by a malor- ity of only 89 votes, Florence by 41. and Calhoup went dry by only 14 votes. The only serious talk of a contest that has been reported Ik in Richland, where the Prohibition ists are not satisfied with the result. As a result of the elections Tues day thirty-six counties in South Car olina will.be dry within a few weeks, And in the six above mentioned the dispensary system will be re-estab lished as soon as the neeeeary for malities can be complied with. Ml88 KIRK WINS CARE. Board of Health Can't Keep Her In Pest H< use. The famous Kirk, leprosy rase from Aiken was decided In the su preme court Thursday in favor of Miss Kirk. The majority opinion is by Justice Woods, Justice Hydrick rendering a dissenting opinion against Miss Kirk. The decision means that the Aiken board of health can not, as it tried to do, confine Miss Kirk to the coun ty pesthouse. The circuit courts’s action in the case is affirmed. It came before he circuit court by in junction from the action of the board of health to confine Miss Kirk in the pesthouse. Owing to the peculiar nature of the case, and to the fact that Miss Kirk, a missionary, who had con tracted the disease in Brazil, was not only a woman of refinement and education, but aged, blind and help less, the case has attracted much at tention throughout this and other States, and the decision is of interest particularly to local boards of health. It is decided that the action of a board of health may be reviewed by the court, although action for dam ages will not lie against the mem bers of the board for wrong deten tion or isolation, unless this is done in bad faith.

The Shooting Took Place in the • / Agent's Office of the Central of Georgia Railroad in Augneta, Ga., Where the Young Man Was Km- / ployed. D. Richard Watson, cashier in the agent's office of the Central of Geor gia railroad, at Auguata, Ga., was shot and dangerously wounded at 11:30 o'clock Wednesday by Miss Elvira Todd, a young woman twenty- one years of age, for whom Wataon is said to have formerly had an at tachment. Watson was removed to the City Hospital, suffering from a wound in the left chest Just below the collar bone, a flesh wound in the throat and a broken leg be tween the hip and the knee, all of the wounds being inflicted with a 3 2-calibre revolver. In describing the tragic affair the Augusta Chronicle says tragic and thrilling as the scene enacted at the office of the agent of the Cen tral railroad at the corner of Wash ington and Calhoun streeta, when a tall, dark-haired and youthful look ing woman, dressed In deep black, entered the place hurriedly. She had a handbag suspended from her waist while In her right hand was an umbrella. As she reached tke landing of the steps she threw down her umbrella without closing it and emered the hall. Wataon worked in the first office to the right of the door and calmly, yet wtih wonde ful swiftness which took all of the oc cupants completely by surprise, the woman swept into the room. Wat son was standing behind a raillj*: and was waiting on a customer and hia face was towards the door that Miss Todd entered. The first shot went wild and like wise did the next two. L. W. Har groves and H M. Cohen, who were In the office with Watson, ran out through & small gate while Watson tried to hide behind the door of an Iron safe in the office. Seeing the gate thrown open, the frenzied wo man took advantage of her chance to get on the inside and she rushed in. While Watson was lying be hind the iron safe door the woman atood above him and fired three shots, all of which took effect. She tried to ahoot again, but waa pre vented by Detective Hall, who hear ing the shooting and waa close by ran to the place. As Miss Todd stepped upon the ground, after be ing arrested by the detective, she is quoted as saying, “I did my duty, I am glad I have done it and I woud do it all over again if necessary.” Detective Hall says that the wo man had been around the Central Railroad office for several days and that two days ago ahe stayed near the place from 5 o'clock in the af ternoon until 8:30 at night. Hall says that on this occasion Watson knew she was trying to see him and he Jumped out of a window and ran home. Detective Hall says also that Tuesday she was at the office and when Watson Jumped out of a window, trying to elutje her she gave chase but was unable to catch him. On another occasion, accord ing to the detectve. Miss Todd called Watson to the window of his office and brandishing a long knife de clared that she intended to have him marry her and cursed him. Hall says that the woman told him Wat son had been faithless, after ruining her life and that after repeated promises had refused to marry her Miss Todd claims to have met Watson seven years ago at an en tertainment. She claim* also that at the time she formed an attach ment for him which has continued ever since; that she was assured by Watson time and time again that he loved her and would marry her when his financial Circrum«»tances would permit of It; that he had ruin ed her character and continued for years to protest his devotion, yet he would never consfent to marry her and »fen finally he is «ild to have informed her that he lid not care to go with her longer, ah* waa a crazed woman and shot him. From his cot In the City Hospital Wat son ctsted most empbatlcalB' that he did not ruin Mias Todd and that he hoped the public would withhold opinion until ho was completely re covered when he would make a •tatement for himself. The Dead .Man is Will Brooks of Augusta and Mark Duncan Is Held as Murderer. The swollen and partially decom posed body of Will Brooks, a white man of Augusta, Ga., was Friday found in a corn field near Bath, with a wound in his left side, evidently Inflicted with a pocket knife. The man had been dead at least two days. It is thought that the body was found by some negnoes in 'j^weing. The body was drawn up and showed evi dences of the deceased having under gone excruciating pain before death. Coroner Johnson was not in the city at the time of the finding of the body, having gone to hold an inquest over the body of a negro laborer who was killed near Sand Bar ferry on the Savannah river by the caving In of said and the inquest has not yet been held. The magistrate at Bath had Mark Duncan, white, taken in charge and he will be held In the Aiken Jail pending the Investigation of the death of brooks. On Wedneaday night Duncan is known to have had a fight with Brooks near Duncan's home. Durncan is a married man and an employe, it is said, in the Bath mill. Brooks Is alleged to have had or attempted to have illicit re lations with the wife of Duncan. It Is said that Duncan had warned him against these advances and warned him to stay away from his home. Wednesday night Brooks again paid a visit to Duncan’s home, it is said, and when Duncan accosted him about it Brooks is said to have struck him in the face and pulled his knife, whereupon Duncan also drew his knife and they bad a gener al fight, during which Duncan cut Brooks in the side. Brooks went away and from the fact that he went through a corn field it appears that he was attempt ing to get away from Duncan. He evidently died after getting a short distance from the house. Duncan does not deny having had the fight and having cut Brooks. Duncan was seen in the jail by a newsaper cor respondent, but he would make no statement. Duncan Is about 40 years of age Brooks resided In Augusta and was not employed at Bath. • DOING A GOOD WORK. The State laboratory Popular With the Doctors. The Columbia Record says num bers of physicians from all parts of the State are beginning to take ad vantage of .the recently-opened state bacteriological laboratory. Dr. F. A. Coward, the physician in charge, is kept busy making examinations. Two hundred and fifty specimens of sputum, blood and fetal matter have been examined since the first of July. Two suspected cases of rabies are now undergoing treatment, and two patients have been but recently dismissed. Six animals have been examined for rabies. On some days Dr. Coward makes as many as 16 bacteriological examinations, which Is a hard day’s work for one man. The latest addition to the labora tory "apparatus Is a cool biological incubator, which lowers the temper ature to 20 degrees Centrlgrade. It is used 4n making- -gelatine cultures of germs. Gelatine makes a splendid culture medium for germs, but, on account of the fact that it melts at a low temperature, it must be kept very cold. The germs thrive as well at a low temperature as they do at a higher. The cold makes no differ ence to them. for Which a Fiand Is Quickly Caught and Hurg by DISPENSA’AY gases will come v P NEXT MONTH. OUTRAGED The Fiend Wm an Ex-convfct Was Taken From the Sheriff.

Thursday afternoon the hodlea were found in a small pond not a great ways from the woman's home. The woman had been assaulted and then choked to death, while the ba by’s skull had been crushed.

Suspicion was Immediately directed toward him on the finding of the bodies, but he had disappeared. Early Friday Taylor was arrested in Ben Hill county, near Lampkln Ferry. He was taken in charge by the sheriff of Willcox county, who Imn edlite'y started for Fltagerald. Fin tin ,' that his way was blocked by the presence of large numbers of aroused people, a circultoua route was taken. The citizens, however, learned of the change of plans, and, continu ally augmented by blood-thirsty men, the mob followed the trail of the sheriff and finally came upon him between Lumpkins Ferry and Mc Rae and quick work was made of the negro. After being strung up to a tree, Taylor's body was Bled with bullets. Taylor had only recently complet ed serving a chalngang sentence in this county. * DIED FROM TAKING OPIUM. Heat Kills Weevils. Reports from meny sections of Texsas indicate that the extreme heat of the past few days had not njured cotton in the southern portion of the state, but has practically ex terminated the boll weevil so that the late crop will be improved rather than injured.

Horre was called to the boarding house at 93 6 Broad street where Holloway lived abotu 2 o’clock Friday after noon and found him In a comatose condition.” Htf eyw were wide-ope* and his general appearance caused Dr. Horne to believe that the man had taken opium.

The State says the trial of a num ber of the ex-offlclals and others em ployed at the old State dispensary and charged with graft as a result wilt -take place next month, if the plans of Attorney General Lyon are not sidetracked in some way. This is practically an official state ment given the attorneys represent ing some of those now under indict ment. Judge Memmlnger will pre side at the coming term. There are now a number under indictment, all being out on bond, but It has not yet been definitely de cided which of the cases will be taken up. However, Attorney Gener al Lyon wishes to clear the docket as rapidly as possible and he will consult with Solicitor Cobb as to the disposal of the “Jail cases.” It is probable that the first week will dispose of these and the officials will be able to take up the dispen- sary trials. Among those now under indict ment are: W. O. Tatum, John Black, John Bell Towlll, L. W. Boykin, Jos. B. Bylie, J. W. Rawlins, W. A. By ers. J. S. Farnum and Norton A. Goodman. Warrants were sworn out for these men at various time, following the investigation of the legislative committee and the work of the State dispensary commission, after evidence adduced by those in terested in the investigation. There is also an order for an Indictment of J. D. Allsbrook, c former dispenser at Manning, who testified before the legislative c >m- mlttea and whose arrezt was after wards ordered for perjpry. Alls brook will be remembered generally because of his remark, "Whos* bread I rat hi* song 1 sing.” There will be a number of attor- ne>§ on both sides In these rises and the testimony will be read with Interest throughout the count*-/, be cause of the prominence given the investigation and the results that fol lowed the death of the State dispen sary and the adoption of the Iocs! option plan and, later, prohibition in many counties. In the testimony produced by the State or the defendants some of the most prominent men in the country will probably be Involved. From a legal standpoint It is expected that there will be a battle from the start, but the outcome in the lower courj^ probably rests with the Jurors of Richland. The fall term of the court of gen eral sessions will convene on Mon day, September 6. • TRAGEDY IN POLICE OFFICE. Shoots His Wife Because She Had Left Him. George P, Marion, aged 62 years, of Atlanta, Ga., shot and instantly killed his common law wife in the office of the chief of police In Wllkesbarre, Pa.. Friday night. Marlon and the deceased, who was formerly Mis* Frances Lee, of Zion City, III., had, it is alleged, been liv ing together as husband and wife for seven years.

Oar Driven by William A. qne Crashed toto a Fence, Killing the Driver and the Mectuudcaa, Harry Molcolmh—Cease of the Axe#dent Merely Conjecture. Two lives were lost snd two speed records were broken on Thursday at Indianapolis, Ind., in races by automobiles during the inauguration of the motor speedway in that city. William A. Bourque, driver of the Knox car in the 200 mile face, and Harry Holcolmb, his mechanican, were killed In the frenzied carni val of speed. Barney Oldfield, driving a high- powered Benz, covered a mile in 43 1-10, breaking DePalma's mark of 61, and Louis Chevrolet, in a Bulck, negotiated ten miles la the marvel ous time of $:56 4-10, cutting Old field's time of 9.12. Both of these are now American track marks. Robert Burman, in a Bulck ear. won the 250 mile race, the feature of the day, and the contest which cost Bourque and Holcolmb their Uvea. The winner’s Uma was 4.3 8.67-10.—slow, because of the many accidents that mared the race. The death of the two men caused the American Automobile Associa tion to Issue an ultimatum to the owners of the big track that certain changes must be made, or the sanc tion for the races will be withdrawn. The Association demanded that the track be freed from it* many dang erous ruts, which are claimed to be unavoidable in a new track, and that every inch of it be thoroughly oiled and tarred. Thursday only a short portion i<i front of the grand stand was oiled and the dust on the other parte is blamed for the collapse of two driv ers in the long race—Louis Chev rolet and Fred Ellis—who were blinded by the dense white dust that covsred the major portion of the track. The Knox car, driven by Bourque, was in second place, with Burman in his Bulck leading. It has cov ered nearly 150 miles when the crash came. Coming down the home stretch, the car suddenly swerved and tore into the fence at the left of the track, turning completely over and pinning Its two occupants be neath it. Both men were alive when tak* en from under the lllfated machine, but Bourque died in the ambuiancs on the way to the Emergency Hos pital. Holcolmb lived a few min utes longer. According to the story told by Private Frank Brandoer, Company H, 2nd regiment, Indiana National Guard, who was nearest the seen* of the accident and had a narrow es cape from injury, something caused both men to suddenly turn snd look around. As they did so the steer ing wheel slipped from Bourque’s hands snd he threw his arms help lessly in the sir. Then came the crash. ^ One of the rear wheels was foun a few hundred feet fro mthe scene of the'accident",’ and this bai let tS ” the advancement of the theory that the axle nuts on t had not been prop erly tightened when the machine had taken on a new tire shortly be fore. The men probably felt that wheels slipping off, and after they looked behind they realised their helplessness to prevent an accident. Bourque was 26 years old and Hol colmb 22. Both were unmarried. Albert Denison, the racing partner of Bourque, collapsed after the ac cident and the services of physicians were required. The sight of the two men lying dead was too much for the friends of both. Louis Chevrolet, the French driver of the Bulck, was led itno the hos pital almost blinded with the tar and dust from the track shortly after the two men had died. The French man, who led during the early part of ths race, was forced to give up. As the result of the two deaths, the Knot Company has withdrawn all Its entries for the next two days and it is said It will probably never again enter Its cars In a race. > Dead Body Fotrnd.
