Gentlemen: Saturday I received a wire fror you in reward to the possibility o staging a Detroit-Rochester game ii Union and wiied you at once tha there was a chance, although m; schedule was about filled. We are playing only ten games ii all and have plenty of opportunities In fact, I have games booked, but think T i>nn o ........ - VM.I UI4WV ? lUII^ClIICU so that I could Rive you Tuesday March 21st, if you cared for that date You will appreciate that we giv< you a real game in every respec that we guarantee the appearance o Ty Cobb, Harry Heilman, etc., in th< Detroit line-up, while the Rochestel club is captained by Fred Merkle an< has in its line-up Maurice Archdea con, who is regarded as the fastes man in baseball and holder of th< world's record for going around t.h? bases. We arc playing these games on i guarantee basis. If it rains we gei nothing. If the game is played wi receive, after the game, the sum oi one thousand dollars. The next thre< hundred dollnrs of the receipts goef to those staging the game; and aftei thirteen hundred dollars the amoum is equally divided between the bal clubs and those staging the garni (50-50). I might state that we have beei putting on these games for the pasl five years, have never failed to get more than the guarantee and have al ways made money for those staging the game. If I did not expect to receive substantially more than $1,00( at Union, we would not be interestec in playing a game there. We hav? made big money in much smallei places than Union?Bamberg, for ex ample. Darlington, etc.. and I knn-w thing yot cases we get the stores to close uj the afternoon of the game and it it general half-holiday. I am willing to hold this date oper for a few days in order to give you t chance to think it over. If you knov Bell, sporting editor of the Columbii State, I think he can tell you hov good the proposition is. Am confi dent that the appearance of Ty Cobl would draw the ci*owd from mile! around and that you would have ar attendance of upwards of $2,000 ii the house. We always get $1.00 gen eral admission, with extra for seats We would not be interested in playinf in Union if you had in mind a sma^lei minimum price. May I ask that you write me giv ing your opinion as to the game, know Cobb is rather interested ii playing Union and thinks we wouh do well. Awaiting your reply am with my kindest personal regards, am, Very truly yours, Walter E. Hapgood, Business Manager.

LYLES HELD ON FORGERY CHARGE Aiken, Jan. 20.?At the preliminary hearing held in Aiken today, Melton Lyles, alleged forger and swindler, was bound over on three charges of "uttering a forgery," until the court of general sessions meets in Aiken in May. Magistrate Raibon was the judge sitting in the case and he first fixed the bond for Lyles at $1,000 for each forgery"charge, but at the request of the attorneys for the defendant that the bond be lessened, he announced that he would not decide on botul until he had conferred with the attorney. The preliminary hearing for the alleged forgers began this morning at 10 o'clock and continued until this afternoon at 5 o'clock when court adjourned until tomorrow. The last part of the hearing was taken up with the case of the state against Mr. and Mrs. Sam Padgett, J. C. Westberry and Melton Lyles on charges of conspiracy, but the hearing was put off until tomorrow, when all of the witnesses shall have been heard. Henderson Bros., prominent Aiken attorneys, are assisting the solicitor, R. L. Gunter, in the prosecution and W. M. Smoak and Sawyer & Giles ore the attorneys for the defense. P. F. Henderson said he intended to have several important witnesses on U o n /I in f Vao o I n r*? The hearing today began with the testimony of L. C. Eubanks, in the employ of George E. Owens of Aiken, who was the party whose name was forged on the checks passed in Aiken. Mr. Eubanks explained the circumstances leading to the discovery of the forgery. He recognized the checks and classed them as forgeries, saying that neither he nor Mr. Owens had signed them. The next witness was J. M. Thomas, toller of the Farmers and Merchants' bank of Aiken. He said, after pointing to Lyles, "There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that he is the man. He made an everlasting imprdssion upon me at the time and I could not easily forget him." George E. Owens was the next. He corroborated in full all of the testih," ""* Mr, ,Ex Wiliam Schroder, paying teller of the First National bank of Aiken, was the next witness. He was positive in his identification of Lyles. "I am absolutely positive that Lyles is the man," he said, "because when he presented the check and started an account I talked with him for a few moments and thanked him for becoming a customer of the bank." W. H. Pardue, teller of the Bank of Western Carolina, on whom one of the forged checks is alleged to have been drawn, likewise identified Lyles and said, "I am positive beyond the shadow of a doubt that he is the man. As soon as I discovered that the checks were forged I wrote 'forgery' on the backs of them and returned them to the other banks at once." ?ii\r?i mriAnnininn MYHitKI ItMINK) IN OWN BEHALF Lexington, Jan. 20.?Job C. Swygert, who is being tried here on the charge of murder for the killing of Dr. J. C. Nicholson in I^oesville last year, took the stand in his own behalf this afternoon. The defendant sets up a claim of self defense. In his testimony he said that Dr. Nicholson had made thrents against him and that he shot the physician in fear of his own life. He was on the witness stand about an hour. The state put up several more witnesses today, seven thus far having been heard, among them being Mrs. J. C. Nicholson, wife of the dead man. The state rested its case at 1 o'clock today but will likely present other witnesses tomorrow. The first testimony for the defense was the written statement of Dr. J. P. Drafts of Ix>esville, who is too ill to attend court. His testimony was taken Thursday and was read to the court. It is not likely that the case will be completed this week, as witnesses for the state and the defense are yet to be heard, and four or five speeches will likely be made by lawyers on both sides. When court is not sitting the jury is kept locked up. POPE BENEDICT DEAD London, Jan. 21 (By the Associated Press).?Cardinal Bourne, Arch bishop of Westminister, stated this evening that he had been officially notified by telegram from Rome that Pope Benedict was dead. J. C. Mitchell and his son, W. A. Mitchell, returned Thursday from a week's visit to York and Cherokee county. They report a good time and say they found good roads on the entire journey. FARMERS FAVOR FORD'S EFFORTS Florence, Ala., Jan. ?0.?Henry Ford hopes for speedy action by congress on his proposal tp lease and operate the power and nitrate plants at Muscle Shals and is "preparing to formulate a definite plan for the great fertilizer question of the future," he telegraphed the Southern Group of the American ;Farm Bureau federation in session here. The telegram was read tonight at a banquet here in honor of the delegates and came at the close of a day in which the conference had declared immediate resumption of construction work on the government's property at Muscle Shoals n?essary for providing ample fertilizewfor American farms. The telegram follows: "I wish to acknowledge receipt of the large volume of letUttp and telegrams urging me to accept your invi tation to the conference erf the farm bureau at Muscle ShoaUra These letters from the farmers of many states are significant of the ^tremendous possibilities for public b?iefit which center around Muscle JBoals. After careful consideration I have reached the conclusion that the interests of the confereiMe and for which it stands can be s??ved best by meeting with you after cpng res s has disposed of the Musclij fehoals proposal. I am hoping fotfspeedy action and am prepared to jormulate a definite plan for the grmc felt lizer cfUestion of the future, [ Please accept my best wishes fottgthe success of your conference and fir the prosperity of the American, firmer." An inspection that cacfled the delegates to every unit of f^ie dormant war project resuiieu w |un expression of sentiment that ,jthc nitrate plants are capable of timing out sufficient fertilizer fcajfredients to supply a large part of the farms of America.

Frank Walker, prominent farm-! er and member of the city council of Blackville, died at the Baptist hospital nt about 1 o'clock this morning of injuries received, according to infor-1 mat ion reaching Columbia, in a fight with A. Y. Collum, Blackville mer-; chant, and Behon Fanning, Collum's brother-in-law. Walker was said to have been struck with a cold drink bottle. Mr. Walker was brought to Columbia at about 10 o'clock last night and was immediately carried to the! hospital where he was operated upon in a vain effort to save his life. Details as to the difficulty were meager and the cause of the fight shrouded in a maze of conflicting stories. The affray, which occurred just in front of Mr. Collum's store on the main street of Blackville at ! about 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon, according to Sheriff C. K. Sanders of Barnwell, who was reached at his home by telephone last night, was said by some to be the culmination of long standing differences between the two men. It was not known who was the aggressor in the fray, Sher-1 iff Sanders said, but Colum claims that the fight was started by Walker,1 according to the sheriff, who says j that Collum claims that Walker j walked into his store and threatened him. Walker, Collum claims, according to Sherilf Sanders, drew a pistol during the fight. Belton Fanning, Collum's brother-ipf-law, Collum says, then took the pistol away from Walker. The first blow broke the scalp, but. it was thought, did little internal damage, the second, however, was just over the temple, fracturing the skull. Officers secured the pistol which Fanning is alleged to have taken from Walker, who, it is claimed by Collum, according to Sheriff Sanders, also had a pair of brass knucks. B. L. Boylston.of Blacksville, one of the eyewitnesses of the affray, went to Walker's aid after he had been struck and assisted the physician who had been called in, carrying Blackville and Dr. Joe Matthews of Denmark, Walker was given prelim inary treatment to be brought to Co' lumbia later. Both physicians ae1 companied Mr. Walker to Columbia. Both Collum and Fanning were put] under bond by the city council of j Blackville, according to Sheriff* Sanders. Sheriff Sanders, who did not know of the extent of Walker's in- j juries, was in Blackville all afternoon, but did not make any arrest, ! leaving the handling of the case to! the Blackville authorities. Informed; of Mr. Walker's death early this] morning, Sheriff Sanders said that' the two men would be taken into custody at once. Mr. Walker was 47 years old and ' is survived bv his wife, who accom panied him to Columbia, and threechildren.?The State. Notice 1 Mr. W. D.

MOVIE TAX BILL SENT TO SENATE The now taxation program, whiel is expected *o bo the piece do re sistance of the session's legal menu yesterday continued its steady ad vance in the house of representatives the salient features of the meet ing being the passage on thir< reading of the motion picture license bill and the introduction of the for eign corporation license tax meas ure. The domestic corporation license tax bill, which was introduced Thurs day, was not taken up for consideration on the objection of Jennings K Owens of Bennettsvillc that the printed hill had not been on the desks o1 tho members the required 24 hours This measure, as well as the foreigi corporation tax bill, is expected te come up for the second reading Monday night. The introduction of tin foreign corporation tax hill yesterda} leaves only the luxury t?x measure still to come from the hands of the ways and means committee. The motion picture license hill fathered by Edgar A. Brown of Barn well, is modeled closely after the New York state law and provides for the licensing of all films to he exhibitee in the state, a license fee of $5 pei 1,000 feet of original *-film and o' $2.50 per 1,000 feet of additiona copies of films being charged. Th< hill, which was sent to the senati yesterday without further debate, i' is estimated, will bring in to the state returns averaging $100,000 annually The license fee, under the provisions of the measure, will be collected bj the secretary of state, who is als< empowered to prescribe such rules and regulations for the applicatioi and issuance of permits as he maj see fit. The failure to comply witl the terms of the proposed act woul< be made a misdemeanor and any per son, fiim or corporation exhibiting ai unlicensed film in the state would b< made liable to a fine of $100 or im prisonment for 30 days for each of fense.
