DECIDE FOR THE CHURCH.
Says Yanderbilt Unuiversity Belongs
j: # to Methodists.
At Nashville, Tenn., Chancellor
John Allison Friday handed down
his decision in the Vanderbilt University
case, involving the right of
the board of trustees to elect its own
members. The decision was a sweeping
one, in favor of the College of
Bishops of the Methodist Church,
South, as against the board of trustees'
claim. The chancellor's find-i
ings briefly follow:
That the original charter was
granted to representatives of various
annual Methodist Conferences. That
Yanderbilt University was founded
by the Methodist church, South, and
is now being largely maintained and
t patronized by said church in the true
sense.
That the corporation brought into
existence by agents of the original
patronizing conference simply holds
its title to the university and its
property in trust. That the trustees
of the university were never and are
not now members of the corporation
and do not hold and never have held
the right to elect persons to fill va-1
cancies on the board.
That the annual conferences having
created the board of trustees,
the right to fill vacancies in "the
creature" was vested alone in the
creator, the annual conferences, j
which by appropriate action transferred
the right elected N. E. Harris,
f* 1 of Macon, Ga.; A. W.- Biggs,, of Memphis,
Tenn.; and V. A. Bodbey, of
Austin, Tex., to the board at the
Asheville conference in 1910, who
are entitled to their seats.
That the College of Bishops constio
hnorH of sunervision of the
lutco a UVU1U w* W?*r v- .
university and has the right jointly j
with the board to elect officers and
professors and prescribe the course
of study and plan of government.
That "Commadore" Cornelius Vanderbiit
did not impose any conditions
or reserve any of the rights or privileges.
Prior to 1910 vancancies on
the board had been filled by the
board, and annual conferences and
later the general conference through
the board of education. The board of
trustees alleges this was a voluntary
concession on its part, to maintain
intimate relations with the church.
The position of the bishops is that
the church established and is maintaining
and patronizing the university
of a "founder" in making his
gifts to the university.
The court in this connection paid
a handsome tribute to Commodore
Vanderbilt for his unselfish philanthropy.
It is expected that the case
will be appealed.
An Original Ku Klux?
John B. Kennedy's death last Friday
at Lawrenceburg, Tenn., would
have interest only for his relatives
and acauaintances, but the statement
made in obituary notices that he was
the last survivor of the original Ku
Klux Klan. This society, according
to a book on the Klan published this
year by Eyre Damer, of Alabama,
was composed of six young men of
Pulaski county, Tenn. That county,
bv the way, continued to be the head quarters
of the Klan, even when, as
an interstate organization, under
General Forrest, it had a membership
of 550,000. The formation of
the Klan in Tennessee was provoked
by the corruption of the State government
under "Parson" Brownlow.
General Forrest testified before the
congressional commission of inquiry,
that the Klan in Tennessee was "in"*
"* ? nv<roni*i<ltinTl + f\
lenaea as a ucicuouc
offset the Union league," its chief
purpose being "to protect ex-Confederates
from extermination by Brownlow's
militia" and to prevent the
burning of residences, gristmills and
cotton ginneries.?The State.

H. I. MANNING FOR GOVERNOR.
Fifth Candidate for Gubernatorial C
Honors from Sumter.
Sumter, Feb. 25.?A representative t
of the News and Courier having g
heard of Mr. R. I. Manning's prospective
candidacy for the governor- .
ship, interviewed him this morning,
and received from him the following
statement: t
"Yes, I have decided to announce t
my candidacy. I reached the con- _
elusion several months ago, that I
would run for the governorship; but
I did not wish to be premature in
my announcement.
"Since, however, several have al- ^
ready announced their candidacy, e
and I fear that my further silence _
a
may be misunderstood and may em- t
barrass my friends, I have decided
that I shall let it be authoritatively
and definitely understood, that I shall _

Sickles Known in Anderson. a
All of this to-do of Mrs. Longstreet's
to help old Dan Sickles out rj
with his troubles with the State of
New York has furnished amusement
to the older people of this city who ^
have very vivid recollections of this j.
man, and it is a safe bet that Mrs. q
Longstreet will not gather very h
much coin from this neck of the
woods. a
After Lee's surrender Old Dan ^
Sickles came to South Carolina and v
was made military governor of the p
State with headquarters in Charles- g
ton. That was during the year 1866. a
It was this man, while military gov- d
ernor, who sent the negro garrison c
to Anderson, and it was Sickles who
was largely responsible for the court a
martial of Crawford Keys, Elisha
Bvjrum, Robert Keys and Stowers, of s
Hart county, for the killing of five j.
white union soldiers stationed at t
Brown's ferry on the Savannah river. Q
These five men were placed there to p
guard cotton which the union sol- p
diers claimed belonged to the federal ^
government, but, which as a matter
of fact was the property of Mr. Stow- ^
ers who lived just across the river in p
Georgia. t
Crawford Keys and James Stowers f.
were convicted in the court martial t
and were condemned to die. Through ^
efforts exerted by influential friends 6
the sentences of these two gallant t
men were commuted, and they were t
ordered to Dry Tortugas for imprisonment.
Later, through the efforts of p
Thos. F. Bayard, senator from Delaware,
who became interested in their j
behalf, these men were released jthrough
habeas corpus proceedings. 0
The negro troops sent to Anderson ^

country people have not forgotten
what damage was done during these
raids.
The reply given Mrs. Longstreet by r
the New York district attorney ex- s<
pressed the minds of the people of t<
Anderson who have not forgotten the ii
reign of Dan Sickles as military gov- d

LEE HELD FOR KILLING.
aggagemaster to be Tried for
Shooting Conductor.
Columbia, Feb. 25.?A coroner's
iry investigating the death of Walr
L. McNeill, a conductor of the
^aboard Air Line Railway, who was
tiled Friday afternoon last by A.
. Lee, a baggagemaster, near Swansa,
S. C., Tuesday afternoon reach1
the verdict that the deceased
ime to his death by a pistol shot
*ed by A. V. Lee. The case will be
ied in June at Lexington, S. C. Lee
aimed the killing was accidental.
The only witness at Tuesday's
jaring was C. F. Hutto the express
essenger, wno witnessed me squuig.
He told the jury that last Frily
afternoon he was in his car
lecking up his express, when Lee
itered the car; he was followed
Lortly'afterwards by Conductor Mceill;
the negro porter came in a
w minutes later.
"The first thing that attracted my
tention," said Hutto, "was that Lee
id a pistol in .his hand and wasaving
it in the air; McNeill was in
ont of him with his right hand on
se's left shoulder and seemed to be
ying to pacify him. Lee appeared
ad and used an oath, which I
tought was addressed to McNeill."
Hutto eontinued: "I then tried to
it the pistol from Lee and he said
me with an oath, 'I'll shoot you,
'0.' I then made no further attempt
i get possession of the pistol." The
itness testified that he did not see
Le two men scuffling over the pistol,
)r did he see McNeill make any efirt
to hurt Lee.
"I have never before seen Lee and
cNeill playing together with the
stol," said Hutto. He then told of
)w McNeill, several days ago, fired
Is (Hutto's) pistol in the car, but
was not pointed at any one. He
iid he had never known of any difjulty
occurring between Lee and
cNeill; he did not notice that eith
of the two men had been drinkg.
In reply to a question from a
ember of the jury the witness said
la't when the first shot was fired
' Lee he noticed that the pistol was
ild downward and that the second
lot came a few seconds later; that

YMPTOMS OF CONSUMPTIOH
I
Yield to Vinol.
The medical profession do not beeve
that consumption is inherited,
it a person may inherit a weakness
tendency.to that disease.
A prominent citizen of Evansville,
id., writes: "I was ill for five
onths with pulmonary trouble, and
id the best of doctors; I had hemorriges
and was in a very bad way.
trough the advice of a friend I tried
inol, and I feel that it saved my
t"e. It is all you recommend it to
>. I believe it is the greatest medi
ne on earth. I have advised others
try Vinol, and they have had the
me results." (Name furnished on
quest.)
Vinol soothes and heals the inflamed
irfaces and allays the cough. Vinol
eates -an appetite, strengthens the
gestive organs and gives the patient
rength to throw off incipient pulmoiry
diseases.
Try a bottle of Vinol with the un>rstanding
that your money will be
turned if it does not help you.
