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

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

the Isle of Palms, and that a bar

that Mr. Grace is boarding at the
hotel in Charleston with the gentleman
who owne the Isle of Palms business.
As to these rumors I do not

MAW INJURED IX WRECK.
Two May Die as Result of Wounds
In Trolley Accident.
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

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.

violated you are hereby directed to

can not do this I will get a man who

and fail not on penalty of the
loss of your job and the jobs of your
men just as quickly as the telegraph
wires can transmit the message."
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.?

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

MODERN RIP VAN WINKLE.
some Remarkable Long Naps That
Have Rattled the Physicians.
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

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

teen submitted to experiments and
iperations.
TAKES CRIME OS HIMSELF.
Confesses a Murder for Which Another

"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."
