DETECTIVES AFTER MARQUARD.
Giants' Star Pitcher Charged with
Eloping with Married Actress.
Atlantic City, N. J., Xov. S.?On
an affidavit, sworn to by Joseph
Kane, of Xew York, and two detectives,
Police .Magistrate Jaggertv to"
day issued a warrant for the appre%
hension of "Rube" Marquard, of
the Xew York Xational League baseht>n
team Mr Kane, in his affidavit.
charged that he and the two detectives
found Marquard and Mr. Kane's
wife in a hotel here early to-day.
Mr. Kane further charged that while
5 he was talking with the proprietor
of the hotel, Marquard and Mrs.
Kane left the place through a rear
exit, with the aid of an employee of
the hotel. Mrs. Kane is an actress,
her stage name being Blossom Seeley.
The pair have been appearing
in a vaudeville sketch, which exploited
Marquard's prowess as a pitcher.
Day and Xight on South Jetty.
Charleston. Nov. 5.?The pilot
boat Igoe brought up to Charleston
yesterday two wThite men, Durbec
and Jones, who had been marooned
on South Jetty at Morris Island from
midday Sunday until Monday night
when the lookouts on the pilot boat
noticed the shirt which was being
frantically waved and the men were
taken off the rocks.
# Durbee and Jones went out to the
South Jetty on Sunday morning to
fis-h. They anchored their boat and
then made themselves safe and comfortable
on the rocks. The wind
was blowing quite stiffly, but little
attention was given to their frail
craft and when later, in the day the
two men prepared to return to the
city, they found that they had no
% boat to come back in. The small
boat had been knocked to pieces by
the 6vind and waves on the rocks
while the men, intent on landing a
eood fish, were cooking the othei
, way.
No serious concern was given to
their predicament for the time being.
The men were sure that they
would be seen and picked up by
some incoming craft. Dark came on
and they had been unable to attract
the attention of any incoming boat.
Durbee had removed his shirt and
had frantically waved with it, suffering
all the more from the biting
cold, in the endeavor to make the
plight of himself and Jones known
but all to no purpose. .
Suffering with the cold, dashed
with cold water as the waves broke
over the rocks at high tide on Sunday
night, nothing to eat or drink,
the men thought many times that
they had seen daylight for the last
time. They pluckily held out, however,
hoping with all the courage
they could master that if they survived
until morning, they would certainly
be seen and picked off the
rocks. They saw another day. The
sun came up and all day shone upon
them. The warmth was about the
? only evidence of sympathy and of
friendliness they had seen. The big
vessels and the small crafts passed
and repassed, the shirt was waved
and the men called at the top of
their voices but no answer came
back, as the boats moved in and out
of the harbor. The calls for help
wora tnirpri as friendlv salutation
from some fishermen probably
thought the passing marines and
again the stranded men were being
left to their fate.
4 Certainly not another night on the
rocks could the marooners endure.
They felt that they would never survive
it. Desperation seized one of
the men as the Igoe seemed to be
passing the end of the rocks. The
pilot boat was practically the last
hope of the men.
Hurt in Football Game.
Newberry, Nov. 10.?Malcolm
Johnstone, son of Senator Alan
Johnstone, of this city, was seriously
hurt late yesterday afternoon on the
athletic field of Newberry college in
a game of football between members
of the senior and junior classes. Mr.
Johnstone is a senior. He was running
with the ball when his legs
gave way and he fell to the ground
i helpless. He had just wrenched his
v>o/VL- ,-t, q otmcp-io fnr nossession
KT U>V1V AU U **00*^ * V w?w r
of the ball. He was taken to one of
the rooms of the college dormitory
and physicians were called, who
found that he had burst a blood ve'
sell of the spinal cord. He has no
use at all of his body from the waist
down and no feeling in it, but per*
feet use of the upper portion of the
body, and his mind is clear. The
physicians think that as soon as the
blood of the burst blood vessel is absorbed
he will be all right again. It
is possible there will have to be an
operation if the blood is not absorbed
readily. This is the second serious
accident on the field since the
* college opened, little more than a
year ago. Two weeks ago Prof. C.
C. Holloway. of the tech department,
while coaching a team in a practice
game, broke one of the bones of his
leg at the ankle.
The Canadian Pacific Railway has
introduced oil burning locomotives.
JOHNSON SOBS, GOES TO CELL.
Black Champion Fails to Furnish a
Bond of $30,000.
Chicago, Nov. 8.?Jack Johnson,
the negro champion heavyweight pugilist,
to-night occupies a cell in the
county jail, due to his failure to fur-1
nish a $30,000 bond for his release!
on a charge of violating the Mann
White Slave Act. Judge Landis held
a night session to give the pugilist
an opportunity to obtain new bondsmen,
but he failed.
Albert C. Jones, who attempted to
qualify as one of the pugilist's bondsmen,
was held in $10,000 bail on a
charge of contempt of court after it
had been shown he had scheduled
property, which, under tne name or
"A. Charles Jones," he previously
had deeded to his wife. Jones was
remanded to . the custody of the
United States marshal along with
Johnson.
Catherine Dorsey, at whose home
the young white girl, Lucille Cameron,
lived for several weeks, was arrested
this afternoon. She had been
hiding in a barn for three weeks.
She was held under $5,000 bail as a
witness in the Johnson case and also
was remanded to the marshal's custody.
In his extended fight for bond
Johnson shed tears, pleaded, offered
cash bond in almost any amount and
employed two attorneys in an effort
to obtain his release. Three prospective
bondsmen failed to qualify.
Both District Attorney Wilkerson
and Judge Landis refused to consider
a cash bond.
"An unparalleled attempt to swindle
this court by offering unqualified
bondsmen has been made," said
Judge Landis.

"1 will not consiuei" a ua&u uuuu.
Mr. Wilkerson said he understood
Johnson intended to leave this country
on November 30 if released. The
offence with which he is charged is
not subject to extradition.
Several other charges against
Johnson are to be investigated by
the grand jury, it is said. District
Attorney Wilkerson said to-night he
intended to put Johnson on trial as
soon as possible. The case probably
will be called next week.
At the jail door Edward F. Wiegle,
a newspaper photographer, attempted
to take a flashlight picture of
Johnson and the pugilist knocked
him down with a heavy cane.
"I want a dozen candles so I can
have more light, a box of cigars and
a case of champagne," Johson demanded.
This was refused and finally
he was given a bottle of milk.
Training Baby to Become a Perfect
Specimen of Health.
Minneapolis, Nov. 7.?To become
the world's most perfect woman
physically is the future mapped out.
for Margaret T'erry, Hudson Grant,
2 years and 2 months old, by her
father, Richard Grant, director of
track athletics of the University of
Minnesota, and ever since she was 3
weeks old the baby has been training
for the place she is some day to fill.
Systematic exercises under the supervision
of her father, who himself
was a track star at Yale and who
has "made" many Minnesota athletes,
is as much a part of little Margaret's
daily life as her food, Grant
explained to-day, while the baby went
through her regular course.
The exercises have already borne
wonderful fruit. Some of the ways
in which Margaret differs from other
2-year-olds are these:
Every part of- her body is perfectly
formed.
She has a normal chest measurement
of nineteen# inches and an expanded
measurement of twenty and
three-Quarter iches, an expansion of
nearly two inches.
Her biceps muscles measure five
inches. j
She could walk when she was 8
months old.
She weighs twenty-eight pounds,
without an ounce of fat on her little
body.
She can walk up three flights of
stairs and back without stopping.
The little girl, though just beginning
to talk, delights in her daily
physical exercises.

?. Pays $3.10 Due 47 Years.
The United States government has
settled a bill for a soldier's back pay
nearly 50 years old. W. H. Webb,
of Elk City, Kan., received a check
from the government for $3.10, due
him since August 16, 18 65.
That the system of bookkeeping at
Washington is accurate if a trifle
slow is indicated by the letter that
accompanied the check. Four dollars
back pay was due him, according to
the letter, but he was undercharged
00 cents on clothing purchased during
the war and the amount was deducted
from the back pay.
The letter said nothing about interest
on $4 for 4 7 years.
A person will generally grieve
sorely over the loss of a dollar and
yet never think of the loss of time.
The latter really comes off his very
life, too.
SWINDLED VICTIMS. j A
Old Game Worked on Southerners, g
Who Lose $25,000. ?
New York, Nov. 7.?On the complaint
of Dr. J. W. Powell and Curby
Cleveland Sidbury, a lawyer, both of
Wilmington, N. C.. the New York police
to-day arrested two men- on a
charge "of having defrauded the
Southerners out of $25,000 through
a wire tapping swindle. Sidbury
identified one of the prisoners as a
man who posed as a telegraph company
official. The lawyer says he
lost $2? -^0.
The prisoners gave the names of
"Charles Daly" and "Frank Graham."
The police have them booked, however,
as Charles H. and Frank Gondorf,
notorious for years as swindlers.
The police arrested a third man*
whom they described as an international
swindler and the originator of
the wire tapping game. He gave his
name as John Kay, but the police say
he has often posed as "Sir John
Gray," and that he has been more
widely known as "Paper Collar Joe."
On complaint of Simon Jones, of
Pittsburg, that he lost $20,000 in
the same sort of swindle as that to
which the Southerners fell victims
and in the same house, Charles Carbonel
also were arrested. All the
prisoners were held in heavy bail for
examination next week.
The police say it is a puzzle to
them that with so much publicity
given to the old wire-tapping swindle
even an occasional victim is
found. In the case of the Southerners,
it is alleged, $5,000 was spent in
staging the swindle. A "steerer"
from New York, with his wife, took H
up residence in Wilmington and en- E
fbrtained lavishly and through them B
Dr. Howell and Sidbury were told B
how to "beat a game" in New York. E
At Aden, Arabia, the water is B
pumped from the sea, condensed and
sold at'73 cents for one hundred gallons.
All food is imported.

Democratic Success Can Only Compare With Our Sale Just Ended
We Have Confidence in Our Customers and They Have the Same in Us.
We don't flatter ourselves when we state that we sold merchandise without the least effort
We still have a good size stock on hand and
the Christmas holidays are creeping in on us ' .

As we are in need of all spare room, together with earnest
solicitations from numbers of our patrons whom it was
not convenient to attend regular sale on account of delays
in gathering and marketing their crops, and then again,
last but not least, enthused over the astonishing victory
of the Democratic party-and that they shall ever prevail,
wp have decided to continue the sale for thirtv davs more.

The same policy and rules of our previous advertisements will be strictly
adhered to during these thirty extended sales days.
The strongest plank in the Democratic party is to reduce the tariff,
ours is to reduce the present high price of men's and boys' clothing
