SUNDAY SPORTS ARE PROHIBITED Gov. Blease Tells Sheriff It Must Be Stopped. UKUtKd LniLr SIEZE LIQUOR If Any Is Sold or Served at the Isle of Palms Hereafter. Governor Blease has issued orders * to Sheriff .Martin to prevent motorcycle racing at the Isle of Palms on Sunday and also to "have indicted and locked up in your country jail," his letter goes on to read "any and all persons who shall attempt to have any kind of races or other sports or amusements, save sacred concerts, on the Sabbath." Likewise, Gov. Blease has sent Chief Constable Stothart orders to "notify the Isle of Palms people immediately upon receipt of this letter, that not a drop of wine, whiskey or beer can be sold or served there, and if these orders are violated you are hereby directed to seize all the sroods and to arrest the people violating the law, and if you can not do this, I will get a man who can." The letter to Chief Stothart concludes with the threat of removing him and his men from office immediately, should he fail to carry out the orders specified. Screwing the Lid Down. This Action of the governor expands the lid now on in Charleston on Sundays pretty tight so as to cover the Isle of Palms, not only on Sunday, however, but every day in the week, as well. It also reduces the Sunday amusement feature at the resort, and, for that matter, in the county generally, to sacred concerts only, prohibiting, of course, fishing excursions, baseball games, and so on, anywhere within the county limits. Some question is raised as to whether the Governor will allow surf bathing at the Isle of Palms and Sullivan's Island on Sunday after this. Xo Sunday Sports. The motorcycle racing held last Sunday at the Isle of Palms seems to have given the governor particular concern, and his communication addressed to Sheriff Martin deals largely with this element of Sunday amusements. After stating that he sees ?AfAvnvnio raf><js was held, last Sun-1 iilUlUl V1V A MVVV , day, he writes: "I hope that you did not know that these races were going to be held, as I see nothing in the said article which shows any effort on your part to prevent the same. "I hope that you will immediately proceed to indict all who took part in said races, or attempted to do so, and bring them before the proper tribunal for desecration of the Sabbath Day, and that you will keep a strict lookout in the future and have indicted and locked up in your county jail any and all persons who shall attempt to have any kind of races or other sports or amusements, save sacred concerts, on the Sabbath. There are some things which possibly we can be .1 v, nnf Viooviricr if we did excuseu IUI jiiwi, ...0, .. hear; and for not seeing, if we do see, but there can certainly be no excuse in the eyes of God or man for allowing these things to go on upon the Sabbath. "It is true that the Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath, but the Sabbath was intended as a day of rest and recreation, and for the worship and service of God, and certainly not for the pur- : pose that these people put it to on yesterday. "I am mailing copy of this letter to Chief Constable Stothart, with instructions that he get busy also, and I hope that you will all see, in the future, that people obey the Sabbath, and the laws of this State, in the discharge of your official duties." No Liquor Selling. In his letter to Chief Constable Stothart, the Governor says: "It is thought aloud around here JLt *- K T3 Tti r?l nci 11 Q" I 1 licit, .JU11I1 r . ui aw o mva m v i vr ,j... , up everything so tight in Charleston j cn Sunday is to drive everybody to the Isle of Palms, and that a bar room is to be run open and above board over there.

St. Louis, June 15.?Twenty-four persons, mostly women and children, were injured in a rear-end trolley car collision on the Creve Coeur Lake Line in St. Louis County tonight. Two of them, .Mrs. Dora Bingham and Mrs. Regina A. Carouthers. will probably die. A score of others were bruised and cut by flying glass, but refused to go to the hospital. The accident occurred near Overland Park, both were open air cars, crowded with picnickers. The trolley of the first car came off as it rounded a curve, leaving the car in darkness, and the second car, running forty miles an hour, crashed into it. The cars were interlocked and both telescoped. A passenger ran a mile to telephone for a wrecker. Nine Gorman s seized mm, uut wiuiau, ?. large and powerful man, dragged the friend down the aisle until others went to his aid. It took the strength of half a dozen of the strongest members of the Democratic side to force Gorman back to his seat. Gorman's second demonstration threw the house into another turmoil of excitement and disorder, but he quieted the session by voluntarily leaving the hall. The trouble between Gorman and Wilson is the first outbreak of extremely bad feeling that has been growing for several days between "wet" and "dry" members of the House. It was predicted tonight that more trouble of a like character might occur before sine die adjournment next week. dn tfk ,t_ a.

Sheriff Martin was seen today and asked if he had any statement to make concerning the Governor's let ter. He had nothing to say. Xo statement was issued this morning by the Isle of Palms^management. It is presumed that the orders to the sheriff and to the chief constable will be carried out at the Isle of Palms, which will afford the band an opportunity to render sacred concert music next Sunday, instead of ragtime, marches and operatic selections.? Charleston Evening Post. W. E. GONZALES TO CUBA. South Carolina Editor Named for i Post at Havana. Washington, June 13.?Capt. William E. Gonzales, editor of the Co- 1 lumbia State, was today nominated by i President Wilson as minister from f the United States to the Republic of ? Cuba. This action by the President ? had 'been expected for several days, t and will be gratifying news to the s friends of Capt. Gonzales in South ? Carolina and elsewhere. C The appointment of Capt. Gonzales ( to the post at Havana is peculiarly f appropriate. His father, the late i Ambrose Jose Gonzales, was a dis- c teen of the injured were taken to the Missouri Baptist Sanitarium and five were treated by physicians at Overland. The others helped each other bandage up their wounds and were brought into town on the wrecker. The crash knocked women and children out from either side of the cars into the gulley beside the tracks. The shrieks of the children, frantic mothers and injured passengers brought farmers and suburbanites to the scene from a radius of half a mile. The open air cars were twice the length of the city street cars and had only awnings as roofs. The forward end of one car and the rear half of the other were reduced to splinters. A similar accident occurred on the same curve two years ago. Illinois Lawmakers Fight. Springfield, 111., June 13.?A riot was narrowly averted in the House of Representatives of Illinois's Legislature at 6 o'clock today, when Representative Thomas X. Gorman, of Peoria, assaulted Representative George H. Wilson, of Quincy, the "dry leader" in the House and knocked him down. While a member was making a speech Representative Wilson, at the rear of the hall, was talking to several Democratic "drys," when Repre sentative Gorman, in a tone loud enough to be heard throughout the hall, called to him, saying: "Get out of here, you piker?go back where you belong." Wilson's reply, which later caused the assault, was not loud enough to he heard, but when Wilson started back to his seat a few minutes later, he encountered Gorman. With one blow to Wilson's jaw, Gorman knocked him down. In an instant things were in an uproar. Half a dozen members sitting on the rear seats jumped over the railing and managed to pull Gorman away. Others raised Wilson to his feet. Members crowded into the aisles, shouting, "throw him out" and "expel that member." When the ttrof. finoiiv o hi o tn make OpCdlVCi v> aj iixiunj uv4v w himself heard, he said: "Let us decide to-morrow or at some other time, when we are a little cooler than we are now." After a short period of quiet Representative Gorman started for the rear of the hall, presumably to renew the attack on Wilson. A friend of - * * -* 1 4 o tinguished Cuban patriot; his broth- I er, the late X. G. Gonzales, saw ser- t vice with Gen. Gomez's army during t the war with Spain, and Capt. Gon- ( zales himself commanded a company s in the South Carolina regiment, t which went to Cuba as part of the z army of pacification. a Capt. Gonzales has been identified 1: with the press of South Carolina for t many years. His first newspaper a work was done as a member of The f Xews and Courier's Columbia bureau r staff. He has been with the Columbia s State since the founding of that pub- t lication, becoming editor-in-chief upon the death of his brother some c years ago. s He has been a consistent supporter > of President Wilson ever since the s latter's name was mentioned in con- r nection with the Chief Magistracy, C and is also considered one of the s President's warm personal friends. s It is not expected that the confir- f mation of Capt. Gonzales's nomina- n tion will meet with any opposition, r and he will, no doubt, be ready in a f short while to assume his diplomatic e duties. b JURY ACQUITS ARTHUR V. LEE. ? Haggagemaster Who Shot Conductor t< Freed of Murder Charge. Lexington, June 13.?Arthur V. a Lee, the young baggagemaster, who 3 on February 21, this year, was al- ^ leged to have shot and mortally wounded Conductor W. L. McNeill, of Seaboard passenger train, No. 81, c near Swansea, this county, was this E afternoon acquitted of the charge of ^ murder after a deliberation of less * than two hours by the jury. The evidence in the case was con- u eluded yesterday afternoon, and for 1 four hours today the attorneys repre- [ senting the State of South Carolina ' and the defendant addressed the jury. * The State argued that the killing c was done with malice aforethought, * f and a conviction of murder was urged. The State's attorneys stress- b ed the point that two shots were fired 0 in an endeavor to destroy the conten- 3 tion of the defence that the shooting h ' - Is was purely an acciaeni. 1 c Council for the defence pointed out the strong personal friendship that b existed between McNeill and young Lee and urged that no motive had v been advanced for the taking of the a conductor's life by Lee. t ' q A MIRACLE IX JAMAICA.

Among the* problems which have jaffled modern doctors and scientists s that presented by people who have alien into trances and remained isleep for a number of years, defying ill the efforts of the greatest savants o awake them from their heavy ilumbers. One of the most remarkible of these cases is that of Caroline lllson, a native of the little island of. )kuo, off the coast of Sweden, who ell asleep in 1 875 and did not awake in til 1907. The case was recently iiscussed by Dr. Froderstrom, of 3aris, who made a detailed examinaion of the case. It appears that for he first 11 years of her life Carolina )llson was in perfect health. Then he fell ill and ultimately sank into a ranee, from which no one could iwaken her. Food was artificially tdministered, and for years she exiibited no interest in any one or anvhing. Then suddenly she awoke, md the most careful examination ailed to reveal the slightest weak-! iess or mental defect. Since then he has enjoyed exceptionally good lealth. This seems to be the longest nap ?n record, although there have been everal instances of sleeps lasting 20 ears. Another case in which the leeper regained normal health is that eported from Minnesota, where a Jerman some time ago completed a leep which, with the exception of a olitarv week, continued for 23 years, le went to sleep quite naturally one light, but the following morning renamed in bed, and from that time or over a score of years he scarcely ver roused except for the purpose of eing fed with his diet, consisting of little milk which was poured down lis throat. Immediately this was lone he was fast asleep again. Docors utterly failed to either to account or this or to arouse him thoroughly, ,nd not even electric shocks would waken him. Ultimately he awoke of lis own accord and soon regained his ost strength. Equally remarkable was the case >f Margaret Bonyenvai, the "dornouse of Menelles," as she was mown, who, after being in a trance or 20 years, died in 1903. In 1883, L'hen 21 years of age, she became mconscious as the result of a prac ical joke played upon her by a ricnd, and was never again aroused rom her comatose state. She was ad by a tube, and after a time beanie the most-talked-of woman on be continent. Medical celebrities rom all over the world visited her, ut failed to diagnose her particular ase or, bring about any remedy. In nother case a young woman who iad been asleep for 17 years awoke uddenly at the sound of a bell which he imagined had been rung for reakfast. This calls to mind the case of the, ;oman in Belgium, who, after being sleep for' 17 years, was aroused by he discordant bells ringing in conseuence of an outbreak of fire. When he awoke she was in perfect normal ondition in mind and body, presentid a healthy appearance, and relembered perfectly events which had aken place 17 years previously, j 'rom Spain comes the story of the rife of a farmer near Burgos, who >*as some time ago awakened from a ranee which had lasted 31 years, 'he case was under the close obser- | ation of medical experts during the yhole of that time, and various aeans were employed to restore her c consciousness, but they failed. | JItimately she regained her senses i nd remembered distinctly incidents " ... - T * A ~ ! l her girinooa.?rnnaueipiua ueugr. CHARGE BRUTALITY. \romen of Pennsylvania Have Warrants Issued. Philadelphia, June 14.?Warrants rere issued here today for the arrest f five professors and surgeons oMhe ledical department of the University if Pennsylvania on the charge of ruelty to animals in connection with he vivisection of dogs. This constiutes the second step in a legal camaign by the Women's Pennsylvania lociety for the Prevention of Cruelty o Animals. Recently Dr. J. F. Sweet f the university was arrested on a imilar charge. The defendants, who must appear efore a police magistrate next week, re Dr. Allen J. Smith, former dean f the medical school; Dr. Edward 'yson Reichert, professor of psycholgy; Dr. Alonzo Engelbert Taylor, rofessor of psychological chemistry; )r. Richard M. Pearce, professor of esearch medicine, and Alfred M. tichards. It is said that warrants or other members of the faculty irobablv will be issued in a few days. John R. Scott, representing the women's organization, said: "This proceeding is not based on vivisection if animals but the needless cruelty nd neglect of the animal after it has teen submitted to experiments and iperations. TAKES CRIME OS HIMSELF. Confesses a Murder for Which Another Was to I>ie. "I alone am guilty of the crime for which Fred Xye is under sentence of death. I fired the fatal shot and planned to rob Miller. Nye knew nothing about it," declared David Everitt, in a written confession to District Attorney Strouss. Frederick Nye is under sentence of death for the killing of Henry E. Miller, at Sunbury, Pa., last year. Miller was found dead in his pool room with a bullet hole in his neck. The corpse had been robbed of $90. Nye and Everitt were arrested and . at their trials each blamed the other. J Nye was sentenced to be hanged, and Everitt received a sentence of manslaughter for the crime. The ' case was taken to the Supreme court i of Pennsylvania, which declined to interfere, and an appeal is now pending before the pardon board. In his confession, Everitt said that he could not sleep at night "because ? it worries me so to think that another boy is to die for a crime I alone ^ committed." J. A.
