V LOOKING FOR HER HUSBAND.
North Carolina Lady Says Husband
Left Her at Laurens.
Mrs. Nannie Causley, of Granite
Falls, N. C., was in the city yester<
day looking for her husband, who
left her at Laurens Thursday while
they were en route from Clinton, S.
C., to their home at Granite Falls.
It is said that Mr. and Mrs. Causley
had been working in a cotton mill
at Clinton. They decided to return
home. When the passenger train
they were aboard stopped at Laurens,
Mr. Causley gave his ticket to
his wife and got off the train. She
saw no more of him.
Mrs. Causley came on to Spartanburg
and spent Thursday night in
. the city in the hope that her husb\nd
would turn up here. She gave
a description of his person to the
officers and asked them to watch out

?Spartanburg Herald.
Killed by Lightning Bolt.
Saluda, Aug. 22.?During a rain
storm late yesterday afternoon
which was accompanied by much
lightning, Mr. S. H. Quarles, a wellto-do
farmer living near Johnston,
was struck by lightning and instantly
killed. Mr. Quarles and his son
were taking up fodder when the rain
came on and sought refuge in his
barn. Soon after entering the building
a bolt of lightning came tearing
through the roof and striking Mr.
Quarles, produced instant death.
His son, although within a few feet
of the father, was not hurt.
EVADED THE CUSTOMSLAW
WOMEN ATTEMPT TO IMPORT
GOODS WITHOUT DUTY.
Mrs. Jack Gardner Implicated?Government
Officials to Push
the Case.
Chicago, August 20.?The United
States authorities in Chicago, Boston,
and Washington for the last
eight weeks have been investigating
the most remarkable attempt to
"beat" the customs laws ever
brought to their attention. The
audacity of the scheme and the
standing of the participants break
all records.
Mrs. Emily Rockwell Crane Chadbourne,
who is now living on the
North Shore, a daughter of Richard
T Crane, president of the Crane
Manufacturing Co., and Mrs. "Jack"
Gardner, of Boston, are the unlucky
persons involved. Mrs. Chadbourne
brought into this country as her
household goods under a false declaration,
nearly $100,000 worth of
articles belonging to Mrs. Gardner,
on which she placed a valuation of
$8,000. The result to date has been:
First, the goods have been seized
by United States Collector Ames,
and are now confiscated by the government.
,
Second, an agent acting for Mrs.
Chadbourne or Mrs. Gardner paid
the government $70,000 in fines and
penalties and Mrs. Gardner will have
to pay $80,000 additional if she
wishes to secure possession of the
property.
Third, the case in all probability
will be placed in the hands of the
prosecuting authorities and it is not
1,1 1? mAman nrill O VD
UIlliKtily iuai uuiu nuuitu mu uu.v.
to face indictments at the hands of
the next federal grand jury that
meets in Chicago.
There are few persons in this
country who read the newspapers
who haven't heard at one time or
another of Mrs. "Jack" Gardner, the
eccentric Boston widow, and her famous
Venetian palace, brought to
this country, stone by stone, pilaster
by pilaster, 3,000 miles from Italy.
This palace, erected at great
cost in Back Bay Fens and known
as Fenway Court, is filled with rare
paintings and statuary and other
works of art that Mrs. Gardner coir
lected in various parts of Europe,
but chiefly in Italy.
For years Mrs. Gardner has tried
to evade the payment of duties on
the art treasures that she has
brought to this country on the plea
that her home was a public museum, !
works of art for exhibition purposes
being free.
During Leslie M. Shaw's administration
as secretary of the treasury,
he proceeded against the $200,000.
Mrs. Gardner had deposited and
started proceedings to have it forfeited
on the advice of Attorney
General Knox, that the museum was
not beine used as a public exhibi
tion.
Mr. Shaw then gave Mrs. Gardner
the choice of throwing open her
house to enable the public to view
the art treasures without restrictions
that were unreasonable or paying
$200,000 duty, and she chose
the latter alternative.
Magazine Offers.
The Charleston News and Courier
is offering upon extraordinarily liberal
terms several clubs of highgrade
monthly magazines. They
are positively the greatest' moneysaving
clubbing offers ever put out
by any newspaper in South Carolina,
and are naturally attracting attention

well as The News and Courier and
Sunday News. For example, a year's
subscription to The Weekly News
and Courier and a year's subscription
-to six standard magazines will

only $2.50.
Parker Predicts Surprise.
Portland, Ore., Aug. 19.?Alton
B. Parker, who with Deiancy Nicholl,
of New York, arrived here to
open the Democratic campaign in
Oregon today, is on record as prophesying
a campaign of surprises. Mr.
Parker said:
mill ho monv etTOTlffP
1UC1U n Hi UV m. V4? U J
velopments in the campaign before
the fall. I do not wish to comment
on them or to say what they will be.
I will only say that there will be
such developments that the men who
speculate in stocks, basing their
buying and selling on the outcome
of the presidential election, will
have to hedge more than once.
"It will be an interesting campaign
and filled with surprises. Any
man who sits down and makes out
a table of how the various states
will go, will find when the
returns are in that he has made
many mistakes in his calculations."
Fireman's Xeck Dislocated.
Anderson, Aug. 19.?A peculiar
accident happened near here on Sunday
when Mr. William G. Thomas,
afireman on the Blue Ridge road, dislocated
his neck while in swimming
in Rocky river. Mr. Thomas weighs
about 200 pounds, and he plunged
in the river. His head struck the
bottom of the river, and his neck
became dislocated. His left side is
paralyzed.
The attending physicians do not
give much hope for recovery. He is
a native of Walhalla, and was considered
the best man physically in
the employ of the Blue Ridge road.
He is married and has several children.
Mr. Thomas is 34 years of
age. v
