P. E. ROWELL ENDS OWN LIFE.
Soldier From Scotia Shoots Self in
Head While Attending Court.
Rock Hill, Sept. 20.?Private P. E.
Rowell, of Scotia, Hampton county,
stationed at Camp Sevier, who was
here attending federal court, took
his own life at 10 o'clock Wednesday
evening at the residence of J. H.
McManus, coroner- of York county,
by shooting himself in the head with
a revolver. Rowell had been staying
at the McManus home since he arrived
in the city a day or two ago. Mrs.
McManus and B. B. Blanton, a government
inspector, also a boarder at
the McManus home, were the first
persons to enter the room in which
Rowell fired the fatal shot and he
was dying when they reached his side.
J. M. Youngblood, chief of police,
and G. C. Clyburn, patrolman, were
in the patrol wagon in front of the
McManus home waiting for Rowell
when he fired the shot which ended
his life. The officers had been to the
a pocnn mill and found Rowell and
another soldier by the roadside, coming
to the city. The soldiers were
asked to ride with the officers and
did so. Arriving at the McManus
home, Rowell told the chief that if he
would wait in the street until he
could go to his room he would return
and ride into the business section
of the city. The officers agreed
and sat in the machine waiting for
him until some one from the house
came out and told them that Rowell
had killed himself.
Rowell left a brief note on the
table in his room, asking that his
relatives be notified of his death, and
saying that he was driven to the act
on account of trouble with his wife.
Letters were also found which show
that Rowell had probably been paying
attention to other women. One
of these is a letter from a woman in
Greenville.
Huge Army Building.
Washington, Sept. 18.?An army
of 4,800,000 by next July, after all
deductions have been made for casualties
and rejections, is what the en-|
larged American military programme
calls for. Gen March explained this
to the house appropriations committee
today in discussing the new $7,000,000,000
army estimates.
Seventy thousand cakes for training
camps and Y. M. C. A. canteens

NEGROES ATTACK POLICE.
Attempt to Rescue Soldiers Under
Arrest.?Officers Open Fire.
JNortoiK, sept, zi?between avu
j and 400 negro civilians, headed by a
score of negro soldiers from Camp
Alexander, tonight attacked the second
precinct police station in an effort
to rescue the two soldiers arrested by
the police on the charge of robbing
! the cash register of a photographer's
studio. More than half of the windows
of the station were smashed by
| flying bullets, bricks and bottles before
the officers retaliated by opening
fire with pistols and riot guns.
Ten negro soldiers and civilians
were shot down in the exchange of
bullets before the arrival of reserves
from the central station . and naval j
j guards gave the police sufficient man
power to quell the rioters and arrest j
the ring leaders.
Police Sergt. White was the only
officer injured. He was struck in the
temple by a bottle. The crowd hurled
paving stones at the ambulance carry-j
ing the officer to the hospital, partially
wrecking the vehicle.
Several of the wounded at the hospital
were said tonight to be in a
precarious condition. !
The trouble was precipitated when j
the officers clubbed the two negro sol-j
diers arrested on the charge of fob-'
bery. They were resisting arrest,
urged to the attack by companions.
The crowd quickly swelled to a mob
and followed the officers to the station,
which is located in the negro
district.

SOFT DRINKS SAFE.
No Restrictions Are Placed on Manufacture.
Washington, Sept. 18.?No restrictions
have been placed on the manufacture
of soft drinks and none will
be until an investigation shows that
such a step is absolutely necessary
for the successful prosecution of the
war. Fuel Administrator Garfield
announced today in response to an
inquiry by Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska.
*
"I can assure you that in so far as
soft drink manufacturers are concerned."
Fuel Administrator Garfield
said, "they have been placed under
no definite restrictions and will not
be until after the matter has been
most carefully considered from all
its angles, and then only after such
restriction is considered absolutely
necessary for the successful prosecution
of the war."

Some Bamberg People Fail to Realize
the Seriousness of a Bad Back.

The weariness, the tired feeling,
The pains and aches of kidney Ills
May result seriously if neglected.
Dangerous urinary troubles often!
follow.
A Bamberg citizen shows you what j
to do.
Mrs. J. A. Miller, Main St., Bam* ,
berg, says: "I know from experience j
that Doan's Kidney Plills are a right I
good remedy and I am only too glad
to endorse them. One of the first ;
vmntoms of kidney trouble in my!
case was sharp, digging pains In the |
small of my back. Every day the j
trouble became more and more aggravating
until I could hardly stand!
It. I felt miserable. I oould hardly j
get around to attend to my houseworK,
as I always felt weak and irritably j
My kidneys needed attention In the j
worst way and when Doan's Kidney
Pills were recommended, to me I !
used them. I only took about three j
| boxos of Doan's Kidney Pills, but j
I they got down to the seat of the
! trouble and put my kidneys in good |
condition again."

number and not by name. In a community
of this size the operators cannot possibly remember
the names of all subscribers; when
you call by name you delay your service and
hamper its efficiency.
' All telephones are known to the operators
