COL I'M BUS GOT CAUGHT. Slid Down Chimney, But Had To Be Pulled Out. Hampton, Aug. 24.?Last night at 11.30 o'clock Columbus Wright, a negro about twenty-five years old, was discovered in the chimney of the Charleston and Western Carolina Railway depot, supposedly in an attempted robbery. Columbus had climbed up the semaphore post,, got off 011 the rcof of the depot and'slid down the chimney, but upon his landing at the bottom, greatly to his consternation, he found that the fireplace had been cemented up, and owing to the narrowness or tne cmmney nue. he was unable to crawl back out of his self-imposed prison. His cries attracted the attention of Mr. Walter Owens, a night electrician, who was passing by, and upon investigation Columbus was discovered. Chief of Police Stanley was then notified of the negro's predicament, and he secured a hemp rope from a near-by garage and let the rope down the chimney to the imprisoned negro. After considerable expenditure of muscle on the part of the chief and several assistants the negro was finally hauled out, more dead than alive, and carried to jail. Columbus had received, his usual quart a month on yesterday, and noticing several more quarts in the office, had probably decided to quench his thirst regardless of the quart-a-month act. He, therefore, proceeded to slip down the chimney, with the evident intention of coming out through the fireplace into the office, and then, after securing what he wanted, escaping through the warehouse door. He had not counted on the fact that recently the railway company had decided to do away with ooe onH 11 CO ctnVOQ With DID XII cpiavco uuu vtwv i^w . -WW .. .?? MT-sr ing, and had, therefore, cemented up the fireplaces. He had probably used this method with success on other occasions, and had visions of one more glorious celebration before national prohibition goes into effect. Sworn in as Administrator. Columbia, Aug. 25.?David R. Colter, of Hartsville, chairman of the State defense council, has been named by Herbert Hoover, national food administrator, as food administrator for South Carolina.

The damage Belgium has suffered in property because its government refused to be bullied has been two billion dollars. A large part of it has been stolen in the name of "indemnity."
