CHARLESTON GOAT WINS FAME.
The Baltimore's Mascot Being Much 1;
Talked About in New York.
There is a mascot of some kind
aboard every one of the big battle- 1
ships of the Atlantic fleet which will t
visit Charleston November 1S-23, but ?
to Cha~lestonians there is one that c
will be of special interest, and that is r
"The Kid" of the cruiser Baltimroe.
"The Kid" is a goat, which once serv- c
ed as mascot aboard the old Texas, c
when she was stationed at the navy \
yard here. When the Baltimore su- t
perseded the Texas the mascot was s
transferred. It is a well-known fact i
aorcanvfhine from tin C
mac i iic iviu ^
wrappers to gunpowder. Just now t
the Baltimore's mascot is gaining t
considerable newspaper notoriety in
New York, as are the mascots of the
other vessels. The newspapers are ?
printing pictures of them with witty 5
stories of their doings. r
Aboard the mine ship Shn Fran- i
Cisco the mascot is a dog named t
"Bum," which carries the mail pouch (
y when the blue jacket goes to the s
postoffice. On the Connecticut the e
mascot is a white pig. There is
aboard the Connecticut also a fighting
kangaroo which is an expert at boxing.
It will be remembered that t
the first fighting kangaroo in the v
world was trained and brought to (Baltimore
some years ago by Frank a
C. Bostock, the great animal trainer,
whn died last Tuesday'in London. _
V/
Among other mascots to be found
aboard the battleships coming here f
next month are game roosters, bull
pups, cub bears, fawns, ibex and hun- t
dreds of other creatures, both com
mon and rare.?News and Courier,

Girl and Pet Monkey. d
Washington, Oct. 12.?And now it g
is the golden marmoset. The credit e
fcr introducing the new pet must be 3
given to Miss Marjorie Stewart, a
daughter of a wealthy miller of St. b
Paul, who has come to the capital to c
attend a fashionable seminary. She h
strolled up F. Street yesterday with a
the fuzzy little monkey nestling ever f<
so closely to the bosom of her smart
gray frock. li
It is putting it rather mildly to say
that Miss Stewart startled F. street.
Debutantes gasped in amazement at,
the furry little creature. ^
It is quite fashionable to have a ^
heavy gold chain around the little
3.
creature's neck, from which dangles j
a chain that is fastened to a ring .
worn on the thumb. miss Stewart
? /-VTI rv hotter f r?T" Vl OT"
went laiouivu uuc vwvwi, xvi mw*
marmoset's collar was jeweled, and g
the ring that adorned her thumb
s
' sparkled with rubies. P
Seen last night at the Raleigh Hotel,
.in the act of packing her many ^
wardrobe trunks for her departure ^
to the seminary, Miss Stewart
laughed at the sensation her pet had
'caused and said: ^
"For the life of me I can't see why ^
the girls here should- be so surprised. ^
This summer I was in Paris, and on .
d
any bright afternoon you could see
p
any number of young women strolling
along the boulevards with their
marmosets, and the men didn't turn
to stare like they do in this country."'

BANK ROBBERY IX OKLAHOMA, n
v
Bandits Escape With $2,000 After a
Fight With Posse. c
0
Muskogee, Okla., Oct. 11.?The t
State Bank of Council Hill, Okla., p
was robbed of about $2,000 in cash f
during last night and a party of f
mounted bandits escaped after a run- ^
rn'nsr fie-ht with a heavily formdld pos- ^
c ? . _
se of citizens. Nitroglycerin^ was
used. T
The explosion awakened three j
townspeople, who seized weapons and v
sallied forth. Meantime their wives
spread the alarm and other citizens r
joined them. A number of shots j.
were ^exchanged ineffectually. Not a
less than three robbers engaged in r
the looting of the bank and they had t
broken into a hardware store to secure
powder with which to fire the j
nitro-glycerine. Bloodhounds were (
taken to Council Jlill to trail the rob- \
bers. (
FIVE BROTHERS OX TRIAL. }
McKnight Boys are Charged with (
Death of Robert Pe ritt.
c
Florence, Oct. 10.?The court of 1
sessions has been busy on the case 1
against five of the McKnight boys for ?
killing Robert Perritt, at Scranton,
about a year ago. This case was the
tragic result of a boys' quarrel that
was carried further than it should <
have been involving friends and kins- e
men of the young men who first fell <
out. The one side was represented by ]
the McKnight boys, all brothers, and ;
the other by Perritt, several of the
Hyman boys and the Bentons. Finally j
they clashed in the streets of Scran- 1
ton, using knives and baseball bats, 1
and Perritt was stabbed and clubbed i
to death. One or two of the others
were sightly hurt. A number of wit- (
nesses have been examined, but the i
case promises to be a long one. There i
are over 50 witnesses. <

TRAINS WITHIN A MONTH.
Schedule from Sumter to Hartsville G
to be Run Soon.
Sumter, Oct. 10.?It was learned
lore to-day that it had been the in- it
ention of the South Carolina West- ol
;rn Railway officials to inaugurate P'
i regular schedule of trains on its L
lew road between Sumter and Hart?- n
rille by the 15th of this month, but a:
>wing to the fact that there was still b)
ibout eight miles to be surfaced si
vhich would require about two weeks si
vith weather conditions favorable n
md a full force of hands, at work, it d<
s probable that the commencement t^
)f the service on the road will have G
o be delayed for about two more
- * pi
-veeivs.
The initial schedule will be arrang- ir
id so that trains will operate between si
Sumter and Hartsville morning and a:
ifternoon, going both ways, so as to d
nake connections with trains going ti
lorth in the afternoon, and with V
hose going south in the morning, tl
Connections will also be made by this h
chedule with Darlington and Flor- L
:nce both morning and evening. 1>

Pardon Recommended for Jones. q
In his report of the recommenda- ^
ions made by the board of pardons, _
rhich met in Columbia last week, the
Columbia correspondent of the News
nd Courier has the following in re;ard
to the celebrated J. J. Jones
ase of Orangeburg county:
"The board recommended a pardon

'he board says in their report to the 01
ar
overnor that a petition for clemgc
ncy was presented, signed by over y.
,000 people, many of them women, ^
nd coming from many counties. The jjj
oard said that three physicians reently
examined Jones^ and reported Izi
,im suffering from tuberculosis. The w<
ttorneys for Jones who appeared be- d*
ore the board were: W. C. Wolfe,
V. B. Gruber and Thos. F. Brantay."
Flagman Squeezed Girl's Hand.
Mrs. Arthur Johnson, of Biloxi,
as filed suit against the Louisville ^
i Nashville Railroad company, and
sks damages in the sum of $3,000.'
n her declaration, Mrs. Johnson al2ges
that in February she was a
assenger on one of the defendant's
rains en route from Biloxi to Bay
t. Loujs. Accompanying Mrs. Johnon
on the .trip was her niece, Miss j.
'uzz, aged 17 years.
Upon reaching Bay St. Louis, the
agman, it is alleged, attempted to
old and squeeze Miss Puzz's hand, b
t the same time winking and at- th
erupting to converse with her. At u
? -ci
his point the plaintiff's niece jerked t0
he flagman's hand, causing him to m
all back, knocking the- plaintiff tr
own on her face, causing her great n<
ain and permanent injuries.

This Horse Hates a Motorcycle. X
SI
Donalds, Oct. 9.?Monday evening
Ir. R. E. Agnew, one of Uncle Sam's a]
lost popular R. F. D. men, met with __
rhat came near being a most serious j
ccident. He was riding a motorycle
down a hill in the northern part
f the town when a mare belonging
0 C. W. Tribble that was in a
'asture on the road side, jumped the
ence and hit the ground about 10
eet in front of Mr. Agnew's machine. "
'he machine was running about 23
niles an hour. |
Mr. Agnew says he saw the brute R
ras fixing to kick and that was the I
ast thing he remembered of the mix i
ip. I
Mr. Agnew was considerably stunled
and bruised up but luckily no <
>ones were broken. This horse has 1
1 decided dislike for automobiles and \
notorcycles and delights in chasing
hem. Lj
aiv a cave chp -mmnpd the
j ^ ^ ? ? r
>asture fence, kicked his motor- *
;ycle from under him and jumped
)ack into the pasture by the time he _
:ould get up.
This same mare was on his same
nail route for several years and she
lislikes the idea of being relegated
:o the pasture by a benzine horse,
and has therefore, entered a most
rigorous kick, as Mr. Agnew and his .
nachine's appearances unmistakably
>how.
Constables Sell Tombstones.
Atlanta, Oct. 9.?Constables from
lustice Powers's court, who levied on
some marble tombstones a few days
ago, sold their gruesome booty at j
public outcry this morning at the
justice court. ,
The levy, however, was not quite
is bad as it sounds. The tombstones
s
vere not actually taken from anyc
aody's grave, but were seized from a Q
narbel cutter who had gone broke. ^
The sale was well attended. Some
)f the tombstones were purcnasea dv
narble men; others by individuals
vho had relatives recently laid unier
the sod.

May Prolong Their Lives I
At an advanced age waste is more I
:pid than repair. The organs act
ore slowly and less effectually than m
youth. The circulation is poor, the _
ood thin and watery, the appetite "
>or and digestion weak.
We want to say to every aged peril
in this vicinity that Vinol, our de- 1
;ious cod liver and iron tonic (with- i|
it oil) will prolong life. It creates
i appetite, aids digestion and makes \
iod blood. In this natural manner \ ,
inol retards waste and replaces I
eakness with strength, giving new |i
!e to the worn system.
If people in this vicinity only real- V/
ed how Vinol invigorates old people B<
e would not be able to supply the ru
;mand. Try
a bottle of Vinol with the un- m
jrstanding that your money will be gj;
(turned if it does not help you. gi
