Blease returned to the city Wednesday morning. The Governor came here from Washington where he went for a little while following his visit to a specialist in Baltimore. Gov. Blease is feeling well and was very much gratified at the result of his medical examination. He went to see one of the coutnry's greatest specialists, Dr. Julius Friedenwald. Gov. Blease states that he was pleased with the doctor's work and that he is certainly a physician who jj: knows his business. Dr. Friedenwald is a diagnostician and does none of the operating. He refers such cases to surgeons at Johns Hopkins. After a thorough examination Dr. Friedenwald told Gov. Blease that there was very little the matter with him, that the governor's case was . only one of indigestion. He said that an operation was out of the question. He gave the governor directions to follow and said he expected him to be in robust health in six weeks if all instructions are carried out. The f physical examination was made without the necessity of Gov. Blease's having to go to the hospital. Visited the Capitol. After visiting Baltimore Gov. Blease, feeling very much relieved at the specialist's diagnosis of his case, ran over to Washington for a brief stay. He visited congress and saw the members of the South Carolina delegation and other friends at the nation's capitol. An interesting coincidence was the fact that when Gov. Blease returned here Mr. B. L. Abney, the lawyer, asked him which doctor he had consulted. When the governor told him Dr. Freidenwald, Mr. Abney showed him the book he was just then reading. It was one of Dr. Friedenwald's works.?The Columbia Record, April 19.

Newberry, April 17.?Two men and a boy were arrested on the streets here last night at 11 o'clock on the charge of beating their way on a train and shooting at members of the train crew. They got on a coal car of the accommodation train at Clinton and reached Newberry at at 8:30. Just beyond the city limits Conductor Roper had them put off, and they retaliated by firing their pistols at the brakeman. The conductor gave the Newberry officers such an accurate description of them that when Constables Blease and Adams and Chief of Police Bishop mpt them on the street they recog nized them at onc,e and took them in. They gave their names as Reuben Fry, W. B. Brown and N. G. Hayres and said they were from North Carolina and Laurens. Fry is in knickerbockers, but says he is 17; the others appear to be somewhere from 25 to 30. They had a preliminary hearing before Magistrate Sample to-day, and were bound over to ^he circuit court for trial. By His Own Hand. I am going to kill myself.

The new dispensary commission met in Columbia last Thursday, and decided to employ counsel. An announcement of this decision of the commission was made Thursday afternoon. The attorney who will represent the commission has not yet been named. Following the dismissal of Attorneys W. F. Stevenson, of Cheraw, and B. L. Abney, of this city, the commission decided that it would need an attorney and so is making an effort now to secure counsel. The recent Felder letter was read before the commission but no action was taken. The commission met Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock at the ways and means committee room in the State house. The arrival of Col. Thos. S. Brantley, of Orangeburg, from Greenville, at 2:30 o'clock completed the commission. The commission has elected as its sergeant-at-arms Mr. James S. Wilson, of Lancaster, sergeant-at-arms of the house of representatives. The determination of the commission to employ counsel is taken to mean that there is considerable work yet to do. The commission, it is known, feels that Attorney Thos. B. Felder has not replied -to its letter sent him. The suggestion is made that Col. Felder never has stated positively that he would appear here. It is not known yet what further disposition will be made by the commission of the whole Felder proposition. Walking from Savannah to St. Louis. Mrs. Margaret Brown and Miss Margaret Cole, the two Georgia women who are undertaking to walk j from Savannah to St. Louis, have j just passed through Atlanta, follow-! ing the Central of Georgia tracks.

Blease last Thursday branded as a lie a statement credited by the Atlanta Georgian to Mr. A. H. Ulm, private secretary to Gov. Jos. Brown, of Georgia. Gov. Blease was asked: "Have you seen the article in the Atlanta Georgian, quoting Gov. Brown's secretary in reference to yourself?" N * "Yes; I have noticed it," he replied, /'yes I api glad to say that *>i? r\o/-ir>1o nf QmitTi PgrnHnfl havfi tuv JJVVp*V VJ. uvuvu v/w* V ?MP . ^ not, up to date, repudiated my administration and ordered me to take a back seat as they have Mr. Ulm. His statement that I said that 'I do not know one Langdon Cheves, nor where he is now at, is a lie out of the whole cloth, as the correspondence in this office will plainly show, and which has been furnished the press. "As to knowing the constitution, in regard to requisitions, I am thoroughly posted on the matter, and the governor of eorgia will also be if he will read Ansel's paper at the conference of governors on this subject. "The man who wrote here for Cheves' picture got a nice respectable answer and his effort to blackmail me or my secretary in the matter was both dirty and contemptible, and could only come from a source similar to a sewer pipe, which carries filth. I don't know Ulm, but from his writing, I can easily see how the people of Georgia repudiated Gov. Brown." The "man who * * /^i- -? wrote nere ior tiueves picture id Hal Morrison, an Atlanta artist, who was commissioned by a committee of congress to paint, for $500, a portrait of Cheves, to be hung.'in the national capitol. Girl Given Pardon. The governor last Wednesday paroled Lilly Donaldson, a negro girl, of Abbeville, who was convicted in 1908 on the charge of assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature and sentenced to five years in the penitentiary. The girl was 14 years or age at tne ume 01 conviction. There was a petition signed by a large number asking for a pardon. Judge Memminger who beard the case, stated that he did not ref member the facts and therefore | would not make a recommendation. v.

Youth Blown Away in Galveston Hurricane is Recovered. In the hurricane and tidal wave on September 8th, 1900, the three-yearold son of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Woodson, of Eldorado, Texas, who were visiting relatives near Bolivar, on Galveston Bay, was swept away when the house was carried hy the sea inland nearly a mile. A few days ago a traveling salesman heard the story of the finding of the child in a pasture by a man, who placed the boy in an asylum in San Antonio. The salesman knew the Woodson#, who have since moved to Kansas City, and the child, now nearly 14 years old, was traced to a family near Fredericksburg, Texas. The family adopted the child six years ago. Identity was established by a gold medal with the child's initials engraved on it, which he wore when he was swept away, ana a Dirtnmara on the body. The parents believed the boy had been carried to sea. Judge Patterson's Illness., Since Thursday night last the Hon. James O.

Halle, of Liberty Hill, has been losi&f a great many cows lately and cam* down to Camden recently and put the case in the hands of Benj. Haile, ^||jj chief of police. It was ont long before the "heads of one of the cow* J was located in the butcher shop of .j one McGirt, a negro. McGirt told || where he purchased the cow. Bob Bush, Lewis White, Ike, Council and /J|| Broadus Patterson, all negroes, were * . arrested, and since their arfest they have confessed their guilt to Mr. v ^ Haile. They told of the systematic ; manner in whfch they have been 'j? stealing cows all over the county. Chief Haile located a Holstein bul| that had been stolen but had not been butchered. He. says that he ' g hopes to locate other stolen cattie 3 soon. It is likely that other arresta ?! will follow. Mr. Haile of Liberty Hill, does extensive cattle raising, and lost 14 cows before the negroes wpro nrrPRtftd. Refuses to Pardon Joy Riders. j 1 Gov. Blease refused Wednesday to pardon Lewis Davis, Henry Field and J Robert Smith, the three negroes who were sentenced to five years each for ^ running away with Dr. Frank Park- . ^ er's automobile in Charleston and causing a smash-up. The petition j was presented by J. M. Rivers, who * claimed that the sentence was oppressive and out of Teason with the offense committed. He said it 1 should be considered not much more than a misdemeanor. The three ne# groes were tried at the February term of court last year and the supreme cojirt recently affirmed the decision of the lower court. Judge I' Aldrich was flrni in his plea to the governor not to pardon the negroes. 35 Averts Awful Tragedy. 'Timely advice given Mrs. C. Wil- .? loughby, of Marengo, Wis., (R. No. 1) prevented a dreadful tragedy and saved two lives. Doctors had said her frightful cough was a "consumption" cough and could do nothing to help her. After many remedies failed, her aunt urged her to take Dr. King's New Discovery. "I have been using it for some time," she wrote, "and the awful cough has al-. most gone. It also saved my little* boy when taken with a severe bronchial trouble." This matchless medicine has no equal for throat and lung trouble. Price 50c. and $1.00. Trial bottle free.
