STRANGEST FRENCH WOMAN. ]
Lucie Delarue Madras, Beautiful and 1
Wealthy, is Extraordinary.
Mme. Lucie Delarue Madrus, in
many respects the most remarkable 1
woman in France, has, says the Nash-1 (
ville American, just returned from a c
trip to Egypt, more convinced than s
ever that she is the reincarnation of f
the woman of centuries ago who in- c
spired the sculptor of the Sphinix. ?
Seated in the desert in the shadow c
of the giant figure, with its weather- i
worn features, Mme. Madura's 1
striking resemblance to the graven
\ image was so startling that every t

i
But this remarkable woman is (
never so happy as when she is mak- (
ing a sensation. Beautiful, wealthy 1
and keen in wit, she succeeds in t
keeping herself before the public in i
some striking pose all the time. i
She is a writer of the most daring
and erotic literature, has written 1
plays and poems and novels, though <
she is not yet 35. *
She has an insatiable desire for <

person, and she has been in the
'Himalayas, has explored remote regions
in Arabia, Persia and the Carpathian
Mountains. She made a tour
of Greece on foot, visited the harems
of Turkey, wandered all over the
West African desert, and now she
has been in Egypt the past winter.
She believes that when in Rome
one should do as the Romans do.
Wherever she goes she dresses in
the garb of the native women of the
place and enters as far as a foreigner
can, into the life of the people.
She declares that she is getting material
for more books and plays?
storing up local color for the future.
She always is photographed in her
costumes and against picturesque
backgrounds, and sees that the illustrated
papers are well supplied with j
poses of herself. t
In her travels she has had many x
adventures and hair-breadth escapes, j
but as she always travels with a j
large retinue of servants and has
several friends with her she is never (
in any very great danger. She trav- }
els like a princess, although she has ^
had to endure innumerable hardships ,
on some of her journeys. ,
Her next journey is to be to this ?
conutry next year. She is going to t
visit the Rocky mountains, Mexico, y
Arizona and Alaska. She wants to
climb Mount McKinley, or at least to (
attempt it. j
Won't Receive Mail. c
(
Paris, Tenn., Dec. 21.?Because, 1
when one negro letter carrier had i
resigned as one day's work showed f
that few persons in Paris would ac- t
cept United States mail from his i
hands, it became known here yester- ?
day that he would be succeeded by c
another negro?the next available on <
the eligible list for the place?hun- t
dreds of letters were received to-day i
by Postmaster Dickerson, protesting t
' against mails being delivered by a <
negro carrier. William Franklin, a t
notrrn was made a carrier and began i
*' ? _
/^work yesterday, but returning to the (
postoffice with but few pieces of his i
pack of mail having been delivered,
he resigned. George Bivens, a negro
school teacher, was appointed
and accepted. He announced to-day <
that he had resigned as a pedagogue
and would begin carrying mail to- ,
morrow. No violence is expected.
Major Wasn't Game.
Spartanburg, Dec. 19.?Greenbury i
Franklin and Miss Laura James, 1
both of Beaumont, repaired to the 1
office of Magistrate A. H. Kirby Sat- t
urday afternoon and requested him ?
to speak the words that would tie I
the knot of their connubial bliss.
The Major complied in due process i
of law and with ceremony and dig- i
nity. At the conclusion of the cere- s
mony he commanded Franklin to c
> salute his young bride; but Franklin 1
declined. Major Kirby thereupon i
said: "If you don't salute her, I I
will." I

World Record for Crossing Ocean.
Boston, Dec. 20.?At 72 years of j
age Thomas Martin, a manufacturer 1
of Winchester, holds the world's rec- j
ord for transatlantic travel as a pas- (
senger. He has taken so many trips <
to Great Britain that he ceased years
ago to keep track of the number.
Beginning in 1870 he has crossed the j
ocean not less than twice a year and
in some years he has made as many
as five trips to Europe. ^
In a hundred-odd trips he has
crossed the Atlantic more than 200 '
times, traveling more than 600,000
miles in the ocean liners.
Mr. Martin always travels first
class and the approximate sum of
money that he has paid to the steamship
companies is not less than $50,000
for himself and Mrs. Martin. i
PRICE OF THE PEDDLER'S ACRE.
I, Fifteenth Century Legacy Involving
$405,000 in British Courts.
London, Dec. 19.?A case which
vill decide the allocation of $405,)00,
now in chancery, will shortly
iome on in the law courts. The
>tory of this money opens in the
ifteenth century, when a peddler belueathed
to the old Lambeth Parish
tn acre of riverside land on the conlition
that his dog, which had accompanied
him in his travels, might be
juried in the churchyard.
The peddler's legacy, known as
he Peddler's Acre, brought in only
some 70 cents a year originally, but
it the time the London County Coun;il
acquired the e&tate the Lambeth
Council wras receiving $9,000 a year
from it. The money was devoted to
;ke reduction of the local rates, beng
equivalent to a rate of one farthng
in the pound.
The London County Council
jought the estate to build its new
jounty hall on it, the price being
M05,000. The money was paid into
ihancery as the council did not wish
:o participate in the dispute which
irose as to its allocation.
in old days mere naa ueea mauj
ights over the property, and in 1824
in attempt was made to sell or mortgage
the acre in order to build a
jhapel in the district. The inhabi:ants
protested and secured an Act
)f Parliament in the reign of George
V, vesting the property in the rec:or
and church wardens and ten oth?r
rated inhabitants, the rents and
proceeds to be applied to parochial
lurposes. The church wardens claimed
a share of the price paid by the
bounty Council, and the fight now
ies between them and the Lambeth
Borough Council.
Does Legal Hanging Void Policy?
Washington, Dec. 20.?The supreme
court of the United States will
;o-morrow hear arguments to deternine
whether a life insurance policy
rmli and void because the
iolder has been executed.
In February, 1905, James S. Mc2ue,
mayor of Charlottesville, Va.,
*as hanged for the murder of his
vife some months previous. He held
i policy of $15,000 in a life insurince
company, and upon his death
md nonpayment of the claim suit in
>ehalf of his several young children
vas begun by next of friend.
While the outward contention of
he company is not that the payment
s resisted because McCue was exe;uted
and thereby brought about his
>wn death, at least in part, having
)een found guilty by a jury of the
nurder of his wife, the punishment
'or which in this case was death on
;he gallows, the claim is made that
nasmuch as no beneficiary was namid
in the policy during the life time
)f the insured, therefore no benefijiary
sustained injury. Stripped of
echnicalities, however, the company
esists the payment on the ground
;hat McCue was hanged and the
luestion has been put squarely up
;o the court to determine, whether
n such case, the policy became in
:onsequence of such act null and
roid or whether it shall be paid.
Mrs. Jackson for Pensions.
- - T?
Charlotte, iN. c., uec. zi.?ivirs.
Stonewall Jackson, widow of the fanous
Confederate chieftain, to-day
iffixed her signature to a petition
isking that an amendment be adopted
to the Sherwood "dollar a day"
tension bill providing for pensions
for Confederate veterans. The pe;ition
was drawn by members of
Vlecklenburg Camp of Veterans and
;he Daughters of the Confederacy,
tnd is being signed by scores of
prominent citizens.
The petition recites that that Con'ederates
"fought for a principal
vhich they believed to be right, and
;ince the war have patiently and
cheerfully contributed to pension the
Federal soldiers, and they respectfully
submit that, as they help to
jay, the general pension, they should
jarticipate in its benefits."
Alleged Tigers Arrested.
Walterboro, Dec. 20.?Walterboro
las been much excited since Monday
ever the arrest of a number of alleged
jlind tigers, and the subsequent proceedings.
The town council engaged detec;ives
and Monday morning seven sus
-L--3
peers were arresieu. ixiuse aucaicu
ivere Mrs. C. J. Byrne and W. G.
Byrne, white; Lawrence Handy,
Bhris Edwards, J. H. Holmes, Will
singleton and Shaffer Singleton,
legroes.
The accused, who were jailed, gave
Dond by night.
Tuesday morning, upon the call of
:he cases, it was decided to take up
:hat against Mrs. C. J. Byrne first.
A.fter some legal manoeuvring the
jase was continued until January 8.
' The two detectives claim to have
purchased liquor from all the accused.
More rain fell in Bamberg last

CHARGED WITH LADS' DEATH. 1
Two Arrests Sequel to Bennettsville 1
Mystery of Thanksgiving, 1910.
Bennettsville, Dec. 21.?The arrest
here to-day of Joe Malloy l
and Charlotte Easterling, charged ! 1
with the murder of two white boys, I
Guy Rogers and Prentiss Moore, on i
November 24, 1910, came as a sur- t
prise and sensation to many. It is j
understood that negro detectives c
have been working on the case for i
several months, and that they have 2
secured strong testimony, and those t
who know the work of the detectives f
in this case say that there is little c
room to question the guilt of Joe
Malloy, as principal, and Charlotte r
Easterling, as accessory. I
Bodies Found in Ditch. i
It will be recalled that these two i
little boys left their homes in Ben- 1
nettsville on a hunting trip Thanks- ^
giving Day, November 24, 1910;
that they failed to return to their 1
homes that evening, and that search- i
ing parties were organized, and for c
two or three days the river swamp 1
was searched; that finally the bodies i
of the two boys were found in a i
ditch, in an open field, very near
Charlotte Easterling's house. 1
The coroner's jury deliberated several
days and finally returned a verdict
that the boys came to their death *
from gunshot wounds inflicted in a (
manner unknown to the jury. There ^
were many who suspected Joe Mai- ^
loy at that time. *
Mystery Explained. c
There were three theories ad- 1
vanced at the time to explain the J
mystery, one being murder, one acci- *
dental shooting of Prentiss Moore *
by Guy Rogers and then suicide on *
the part of Guy Rogers, the otner v
an accident as to both. Joe Malloy,
who has been arrested, is a negro
man who had at that time a wife
and several children. His wife died
a few weeks after the verdict of the
coroner's jury under somewhat suspicious
circumstances.
It is probable that Joe Malloy and
Charlotte Easterling will be given a
preliminary hearing before Magistrate
S. J. Mclnnis to-morrow or
the next day.
HUNTER SAVED FROM GALLOWS
Savannah Man's Sentence Commuted
on Eve of Execution.
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 21.?The death
sentence imposed upon J. C. Hunter,
of Savannah, for the murder of his
wife and two other women, was commuted
to life imprisonment to-day
by Gov. Slaton. The State board of
pardons had recommended such a
course.
Hunter was sentenced several
months ago but execution was postponed
pending investigation of a
story told by a Savannah negro, halfway
implicating himself. The negro
was tried and acquitted. Hunter
was to have died to-morrow.
Prisoner Hears Good News.
Savannah, Ga., Dec. 21.?J. C. s
Hunter, under sentence to be hang- j
ed to-morrow, Dut wnose sentence
was commuted to life imprisonment,
was baptized in the jail to-day by the
Rev. John S. Wilder, his spiritual
adviser. It was not until after this
service had been performed that he
was told of his good luck at the
hands of the governor. The man
went into the improvised baptismal
pool at the jail, thinking that he was
literally standing upon the brink of
the grave. He did not falter at any
time in his assertions of his innocence,
and after the ceremony was
over and he was told that he Was
not to be hanged, he seemed much
relieved but is still of the opinion
that he is entitled to a ftill pardon.

Operation to Save Richeson.
Boston, Dec. 20.?Rev. Clarence *
V. T. Richeson, in jail awaiting trial s
on the charge of murdering Miss (
Avis Linnell, cut himself with a piece 1
of tin early to-day. It is said that
the wound was inflicted in the groin
and that his condition is understood j
not to be serious.
The act of the minister is not re- J
garded by the jail officials as an at- e
tempt to commit suicide.
A disturbance was heard in Richeson's
cell early this morning. He had
gashed himself with a sharp piece of T
tin. Richeson cried to the guards:
? is ti? t-i k
"I've cut myseu?i m uieeuiug cu
death."
The doctor found Richeson had cut
himself severely. Four surgeons re- ^
sorted to a drastic operation. Riche- f
son was put under an anaesthetic c
and the operation was said to be a j
successful one. 1
After Richeson was carried to the ;
jail hospital where an auxiliary oper- t
ation was performed the surgeons j
said they thought he would recover.
Counsel Morse, for Richeson, said i
he had been visiting the former cler- \
gyman daily until yesterday and that
on each visit Richeson had expressed l
confidence in his acquittal. How t
Richeson's act to-day would affect 1
future proceedings, Mr. Morse was t
unwilling to conjecture. t
JEMAXD PAY FOR DEAD SQUAW.
-lusband Slew Her and was Acquitted
But Tribe Turns Up.
Lake View, Ore., Dec. 21.?Bige
Archie, who was accused of killing
lis squaw at Plush, on the Klamath
ndian Reservation, a few months
igo, and who was found not guilty
>y a jury in the circuit court, will
ret have to pay a penalty for the
!eed, according to rumors from Warier
Valley. Bige is a Piute Indian,
md his squaw was of the Pit River
ribe. The latter tribe is not satisied
with the result of the circuit
:ourt trial.
The Pit River Indians are now denanding
that Bige and his friends
lay over a suitable amount in pay
nent for the wife, and in case they
efuse to do so it is said that it will
>e a case of life for life and war,
vith Bige in the leading role.
It is understood that Bige and
lis tribesmen are endeavoring to
aise the money and valuables to .
luiet the wrath of the Pit Rivers and
lope for an early settlement. Ten
lonies will settle the bill in full paynent
for the squaw.
Whiskey-making in South Carolina
100 Years Ago.
One hundred years ago and down
ls late as 1840, perhaps, anybody
jould make whiskey in this State.
[t was the well-to-do farmers wno
vere able to purchase a still and put
t up. There are not many branches
>r small streams with a few feet of
'all in the country that did not at
some time have a still house on
;hem. A small dam was made on
he branch and the water was carried
;o the still in small wooden troughs
;ut out by hand with axes. These
veresupported on forked stakes driven
into the ground. The still house
vas generally a small log cabin built
>n the bank of the branch.
When corn was furnished the
listiller made whiskey on the shares
)r charged a certain price per gallon.
Peach and apple brandy was
nade the same way.
There was no license law in that
lay. Merchants could sell it by the
lint or gallon or barrel. If you could
see some of the old books of account
i hundred years ago, you would find
:hat more than half the items would
ead whiskey, brandy, wine and gin.
Perhaps whiskey sold at 37 to 50
;ents a gallon in the old days. A
sushel of corn was estimated at 50
:ents and it would make 2% to 3
gallons of whiskey. The old-time
listfllers say that more than three
gallons of honest whiskey cannot be
nade from a bushel of corn. Down
is late as 1860 some of our best citisens
made whiskey, for they had
ieen brought up in still houses and
lelieved that there was no harm in
t. Even church members and dea10ns
engaged in the business.
For a few years in the '50's the
tillage, as Spartanburg was called,
vas dry. The town council voted
jut barrooms. There were no blind
:igers then, but when milk was
jcarce and the chilly weather called
'or something a little stronger than
vater, all one had to do was to send
jut to some still house and order a
fug of whiskey. So the people did
lot suffer much for want of it. Some
)f them did suffer on agcount of the
ibundance of it.
At the close of the war B. F. Per y
was Provisional Governor. He
"* - 1 xv? lA/.;n1nl?ra
;anea a sessiuu ui mc icgiuiaiuic.
3ne of the perplexing questions was
;he making and sale of whiskey. It
vas freely discussed, but nothing was
lone. One member, who had always
seen a total abstainer, said that he
vas in favor of letting any and every3ody
make it, but fix the maximum
3rice at 37 cents, so that they would
3aake it so mean that it would soon
sill out the drunkards.
The government then took hold of
;he matter and then came moonshine
stills-, blockade wagons, and all sorts
>f plans to furnish whiskey to the
leedy.
The moonshiners exercised great
ngenuity and mechanical skill in rigging
up their stills. One citizen of
;his county needed a little for his
3wn use. He fixed a wooden top to
i large wash pot, had the worm
nade by a tinner and made some
rvhiskey in that way. Uf course, tne
*un would be a light one, but it
vould be enough to keep the family
;oing several days.?Capt. Petty in
Spartanburg Journal.
! Called to Door and Shot.
Marion, Dec. 21.?B. T. Ammons,
vho for a long time carried the mail
torn Marion to Britton's Neck, was
:alled out on his piazza in the lower
)art of the county about 10 o'clock
ast night and shot to death. The one
vho did the shooting has not yet
)een apprehended, consequently no
irrests have followed.
The sheriff and coroner left this
norning for Mr. Ammons's home,
>ut they have not yet returned.
It is reported that .Mr. Ammons
las been having trouble for some
:ime with a family of negroes who
ive near him and it is thought that
he shooting might be the culmina;ion
of this trouble.

ASSISTS ALLEGED ROBBER.
Dr. Harvey Hill, of Baltimore, Visits
Scene of Train Hold-Up.
Having been delayed in leaving
the city Tuesday afternoon, Dr. J.
Harvey Hill, of Baltimore, father of
George H. Hill who, with Henry Eckstorm,
is being held at the Chatham
county jail as the bandits who held
up Atlantic Coast Line train No. 80
Tuesday morning of last week, went
to Hardeeville, S. C., the scene of the
robbery Wednesday, says the Savannah
Press.
The purpose of the visit of Dr.
Hill to Hardeeville is in the interest
of his son. It is expected while he
is there to-day he will investigate
the movements of his son and Eckstnrm
durinsr the three weeks thev
were there prior to the robbery.
Dr. Hill has made preparation for
having counsel to represent his son
and Eckstorm at the preliminary
hearing. Mr. H. Wylly Johnson has
conferred with United States Commissioner
W. R. Hewlett relative to
deciding upon a date for the preliminary
hearing in the case. Mr.
Johnson stated Wednesday morning,
however, that it had not been definitely
decided that he will represent
the young , men at the trial.
Hearing Next Month.
The postal authorities are in the
meantime continuing their work upon
the case. It was stated this
morning that the date stated for
the preliminary hearing was selected
because of the Christmas holidays.
Just at this season the train crews
and railroad employees who will ap
pear as witnesses for the prosecution
are unusually busy, and it was decid-"
ed not to have the preliminary hearing
until after Christmas in order
that the work of the train crews will
not to be interfered with by the trial.
The prisoners were visited Wednesday
at the jail by Mr. Johnson, who
consulted with them for quite a
while. The father of young Hill did
not call at the jail to see his son before
leaving the city.
No effort has been made by Dr.
Hill at this time to secure the release
of his son or the other man under a
bond. The postal authorities stated
that it was thought this could be satisfactorily
aranged with Commissioner
Hewlett, who has the authority
in this matter. Dr. Hill has not called
upon the postal authorities since
he has been in the city.
Identification Not Positive.
There is much sepculation throughout
the city as to the guilt or innocence
of the accused. There are many
people who believe the officers have
the right men and just as many who
do not accept this view.
The identification of the men at
the jail Sunday by the crew of the
train that was robbed is understood
to have been far from complete. It
is reported that tnose wno were on
the engine where the robbers poked
their pistols in their direction and ordered
them to hold up their hands
are not by any means emphatic in
their assertion that the men under
arrest were the men behind the
guns. While the voices of the accused
were first heard by the members
of the train crew and they were
inclined to identify them that way,
when the men were brought into view
there was less positiveness in the
identification.
CHILDREN BURNED TO DEATH.
Mother Leaves Boy and Girl in
House?Origin of Fire.
Newberry, Dec. 21.?Two negro
children were burned to death when
a tenant house on Mr. Thomas J.
Davenport's Belfast plantation, near
the Laurens line, was destroyed by
fire at about noon. The mother, Lilla
Davis, had left the house a few
minutes before. When the fire was
discovered the house was almost
completely destroyed, and all efforts
to save the children were unavailing.
The house was burned to the ground.
The origin of the fire is unknown,
though it is supposed the children,
when left by their mother, followed
their natural instincts and played in
the fire, and that the house was set
on fire in this manner.
The children were aged about 5 ,
and 3 years, respectively. The elder
was a girl. Their charred remains
were found in the bed, where the
children had met their horrible death
together.
The tenant house was a threeroom
frame dwelling, and Mr. Davenport's
loss is about $,400, with no
insurance.
The fire occurred during a heavy
downpour of rain.
The man who keeps his money
hidden under a stone in the fire place
is becoming almost as rare as the
woman who hides hers away in an
old stocking. Most people have
learned that banks are safer. But
occasionally somebody takes the old
chance and loses. J. J. Lee, of Ingleside,
Ga., kept money in an old
tool chest on his back porch. There
was over $300 of it in gold. The
thief left the hammer and saw.

SHE COULD SHOUT, SAYS
Mrs. John W. Pitchford, of Aspen,
North Carolina.
I will always use Hunt's Cure for
itching trouble, and tell all I see
about it. I could shout now to know
that we are all well of that dreadful
trouble. The first of last fall my
little hoy broke out with some kind
of itching trouble. Thinking his
blood was bad I gave him a blood
tonic, but he got worse, and could
not sleep at night. Some said he had
itch, and told me what was good
for it. I used what people said
would cure it but nothing did any
good. My other two children and
myself took the disease from him in
January, 1911. I saw Hunt's Cure
advertised and I purchased a 50c.
box. It helped my little boy so much %
I got a box for each of the family,
and now we are all well of that awful
trouble. Hunt's Cure will cure
itch in a short time if you will go by
directions. We had it in its worse y#
form, and used Hunt's Cure, and we
are now all well.
