JOHNSON NO LONGER RICH
CLEVELAND'S EXECUTIVE HAS
LOST HIS FORTUNE.
Mayor Says His Money Was Lost
Through Devotion to the AtTairs
of Others.
Cleveland, Ohio. November 19.?
Mayor Tom L. Johnson, who for years
has been credited with possessing a
very large fortune, to-day announced
that he had lost everything and
would be compelled to give up his
beautiful home on Euclid avenue and
move into smaller and less expensive
quarters. The mayor also stated that
he would give up his automobiles
> and other luxuries, as he could no
longer afford to keep them. His fortune
was wrecked, the mayor declar
ed, by his devotion to the airairs or
his dead brother Albert, who was
heavily interested in traction properties
in the East.
After Albert's death a question was
put up to him whether he should resign
his office as mayor and take up
the management of Albert's estate.
"I decided that I would not. 1
had entered the fight in this city with
certain ideals before me. I wanted
to fight privilege and special interests
and I had already decided to
give up working for dollars. So I
concluded to stay right here and do
what I could to help my brother's
children at long distance.
"Why did 1 choose the course I did?
I'll tell you. I wanted happiness and
nothing else when I closed up my
business affairs and took up civic
activity.
"And I've been happy, too.
"I'm going to be happy yet, too.
We may have to go back to a cottage,
but that's the way we started
and we can look upon life just as
joyfully there as we did in the big
house on Euclid avenue.
"They tell me my enemies are planV>T*r>cr
financial trouble UDOn
? ?
me. I've been expecting it.
"My enemies are capable of doing
that. One may expect nothing else
from special privileges. Let them
make any sort of attack upon me
that they choose. I'll never give up
and they'll always find me at the
front
Could Have Saved Fortune.
"If I had been a coward?if I had
run away from this fight for the people
of Cleveland?I could have saved
my fortune and built it up. But I
had chosen my course. I haven't
been laboring as mayor with the expectation
of being rewarded by the
gratitude of the people. One can
not count on that. It's pleasure in
doing work that I like that has kept
!'r me, in the fight.
J "I have never made a single penny
out of the street railways since I became
mayor. I don't feel discouraged,
I'm a free man, and that means
a great deal to me. Don't you supV
pose it will be worth something to
me to have my friends realize that I
v - entered the mayor's office rich and
left it poor?
"I'm going to keep on just as I've
started. I'm going to be a candidate
i; ,, for mayor again when this term is
K:-. over."
The Municipal Traction company,
of which Mayor Johnson was treas'
urer, passed into the hands of the
receivers in the federal courts several
days ago. Following this came
the transfer of two local banks of
the Depositors' Savings and Trust
company, of which the mayor was
president. It is said this action was
precipitated by the threats of Mr.
Johnson's individual creditors to file
suits to obtain payment on notes enJ

It is said that Mr. Johnson had
recently lost approximately $400,000
in connection with his interests at
Lorraine, Ohio.

Man Can Live Forever.
New York, November 19.?Man
ought to live forever if the proper
"spirit life" is cultivated, according
to Charles Brodie Patterson, who has
made a special study of longevity.
This rather startling statement he
made at the Waldorf-Astoria during
a meeting of the Medico-Legal Society.
Authenticated cases of extreme
long life he pointed out to support
his theory, adding that with proper
care even the longest spans of life
; > t as now measured might be increased
- v " twenty or thirty years or even indefinitely.
Another speaker said that he knew
of a man in England who lived to
the ripe old age of 130 years, and
that those who wished might do the
same.
Alcoholic stimulants, declared an
v other speaker, cuts short many a
life that would otherwise be long.
_
Prohibition Convention.
Spartanburg, S. C. Nov. 21, 1908.
Editor The Bamberg Herald: Instead
of writing each minister of the
different denominations in South
Carolina a personal letter, please allow
me through your paper to give
them notice concerning our prohibiV
tion convention soon to be held in
Columbia. First of all, we want the
ministers of every christian church
in the State to be present and help
us make this the greatest meeting of
the kind ever held in South Carolina.
Brethren, get a few good men in
\- your community together, and arrange,
not only to come yourself but
to bring others with you to represent
the county in which you live. Several
noted speakers will be on hand,
and a public mass meeting will be
held Thursday evening, beginning at
7.30 o'clock in the hall of the House
l of Representatives, December the
3rd.
We hope for a full attendance at
this meeting. We will meet again
in the hall Friday morning, December
the 4th, at nine o'clock to attend
to the important business coming bey
fore the body.
Let every man interested in the
cause of State-wide prohibition think
about it, talk about it, pray for it,
and see to it, that several good men
are sent to this convention as deleV
gates from the county in which he
resides.

FLORENCE GIRL ATTACKED.
Miss Hessie Shackleford Struck on
the Head With a Brick.
Florence, November 18.?Miss Hessie
Shackleford, the 16-year-old
daughter o: Mr. and Mrs. C. W.
Snackleford of this city, was attacked
by some unknown person between
her father's store and the railroad
at Dargan street crossing Monday
night, about 7:80 o'clock, as she
was on her way home from her work.
She was struck on the back of the
head. The blow was a very severe
one and came very near knocking the
young lady to the ground. She
screamed, and fortunately, her father
heard her cries, and came to her
assistance, but the miscreant escaped
before he reached her. The blow
she received cut almost to the bone,
and appeared as if inflicted with a
? s -i-%- - ? TW n T-rirrcr
oriCKuai oi" piece ux wwu. j_.i. uic6Cl
was called in soon after and gave
medical attention. She is resting
very well to-day.
The young lady's brother usually
accompanies her home from the store
but she had to stay out later than
usual Monday night on account of
finishing up some work left over
from Saturday, and when she got
through, instead of waiting on her
brother, she undertook to walk home
alone.
The affair did not become generally
known until yesterday morning,
and as the news spread much indignation
was manifested.
"THE DARK CORNER."
Zaeh McGhee's Book Will be Issued
in a Short Time.
The news that Mr. Zach McGhee,the
well known Washington correspondent
and magazine writer, is to issue
a book sometime within the next ten
days will be received with no little interest
in this county. Mr. McGhee is
well known in South Carolina, having
made this State his home before
he went to Washington, and hid book,
"The Dark Corner" will no doubt be
read with added interest on this account.
(
It is said to be a high class literary
achievement, dealing with the
educational problems of the school
teacher, and having a distinctly
Southern atmosphere surrounding
the entire plot of the story. The
theme is one well woven around
scenes which are well known to us
all, and the critics, North and South,
have spoken freely and favorable of
the work. Mr. MClinee, Deiore ne uecame
a newspaper man, was connected
with the public school system of
this State and denouement of the
story well shows that he is as capable
in this line as he is a writer. "The !
Dark Corner," it is said, will un-j
doubtedly arouse discussion, and1
some timely suggestions to the "pow- j
ers that be" toward the betterment
of the school system are offered
throughout the work. It is a book
with a distinct purpose, one which
will do good to all.
It is considered fortunate that the
book will be issued at this the approaching
time towards the Christmas
holidays, when everyone is bent
upon purchasing something as a gift
and are in a quandary as to the exact
thiqg to buy. From all that can be
learned now before the book is is- j
ued, and froift those who have read
the advance sheets, it will make a
good Christmas present, aside from
the fact that it is a book which will
undoubtedly stand upon its own
merits.
The price of the book is one dollar,
the Grafton Press, New York
city, being the publishers.
OBJECT TO NEGROES.
Walk Out of College Class Room as
Colored Men Enter.
Grand Rapids, Mich., November
20.?Thirty-four members of the
junior class in the Grand Rapids
Veterinary college walked out of a
class room to-day when two negro
students entered to resume their
studies. Because of the objections
of other students the colored men
had been denied admission when they
returned to college this year, and
the negroes applied to the courts.
Judge Perkins mandamused the college
management to admit the two
colored students, on the ground that
the college, being a quasi-public institution,
had no right to discriminate
against citizens because of their
color. After to-day's strike the
school authorities suspended the entire
junior class, including the two
colored students, until next Wednesday
Branchville Brevities.
Branchville, November 23.?Last
night at his "home in this place, Mr.
T71 A Gtimaa 0 r? no coo/1 o Tiro tt vfiirv
j r JLJi. Ul/C, ui paoovu u ? uj ? v* j
suddenly, the cause of his death being
heart trouble. Mr. Bruce was lying
on his bed, and talking with his
wife when he was taken critically ill
and died within a very few minutes.
Mr. Bruce was 68 years of age, and
leaves a large family connection. Mr.
Bruce was in comparatively good
health although he had suffered for
many years from cancer of the eye,
but this was not the direct cause of
his death. He was a member of the
Knights of Pythias and the Masons,
and was buried this afternoon at 3
o'clock at the Branchville cemetery
with Masonic honors.
A fight occurred here between two
negroes last night at a church in the
suburbs of the town. Gus Jennings,
believing himself to be insulted by
William Smith, used a knife on that
individual, but succeeded in only making
two long gashes in his coat,
which has caused Smith considerable
concern. The two negroes were attending
services at Williams Chapel
at Pleasant Hill a suburb, and Smith
went to close the church door. Jennings
was standing on the outside,
and told Smith not to close the door
in his face. A row ensued, in which
Smith was cut, and then Smith dealt
his assailant a heavy blow with a
fence picket, and the jar was over.
A number of the Winthrop girls,
who had returned home on account
of the fever situation, have returned
to Rock Hill to resume their studies.
MARLBORO AGAIN AHEAD.
B. E. Moor*' Raised Over 137 Bushels
on One Acre.
Considerable interest has been
; taken in the prizes offered by the
State agricultural and mechanical
society and by several fertilizer dealers
for the best yield of corn on one
acre. The reports so far received
at the office of the commissioner of
agriculture, commerce and immigration
give the production to Mr. B.
E. Moore of Bennettsville. The con
test has not closed yet, however, and
it is not definitely known who will
win the prizes.
Mr. Moore raised 137 2-3 bushels
of corn on one acre at a cost of $88.75.
He sold this yield as seed corn
at $2.25 per bushel, making $309.09,
or a net profit of $220.24. Mr.
Moore used on this acre 1,000 pounds
of high grade Peruvian guano and
1,000 pounds of nitrate of soda. The
cost of all the fertilizer was only
$64.75.
This is a good showing for South
Tnrnlina and for Marlboro county,
which is frequently spoken of as
the best farming county in the State.

Yeggs Made Big Haul.
At South Bend, Ind., burglars tunnelled
a 14-inch fire wall, entered the
vault of the postoffice with an electric
drill and escaped Sunday morning
with nearly $19,000 in stamps,
while a force of night clerks were
at work. The theft was discovered at
8:30 in the morning by a clerk in a
store one door north of the room
temporarily occupied by the postoffice
during the erection of the new
building.
A PITTFTJL CASE.
Two Starving Negro Children Taken
to the Police Station
Two negro women brought two negro
children to the police station last
night that were in a pitiful condition
and presented a pathetic tale of distress.
One of the children was only
four weeks old and on the verge of
starvation, while the other was a boy,
possibly seven or eight years old.
The two had been living with a wo-J
man, the mother of the baby and aunt
of the boy, until she died early yesterday
morning and they were homeless,
as the father and uncle had run
away, according to the woman who
brought the children to the police,
and the grandmother and other relatives
refused to take them.
From what the two women said,
who had taken them until some arrangement
could be made, they have
| had a hard time. They said the dead
i woman's name was Lily Long and
her husband's name was Eli Long,
! and that he had slipped away just
before his wife's death and had not
returned. It was thought that his
mother had induced him to leave.
They stated that his wife had been
in destitute circumstances before her
death and that he had taken 10 cents
somebody had given the wife and
spent it for whiskey. The dead woman
gave the two children to another
negro woman, who had turned them
over to the two women who now had
them. Yet another woman came to
them for the children, but refused
to keep them.?Columbia State.
