HANGED HIMSELF IX SHED.
William Fuluter, Aged Aiken Fainter,
Commits Suicide.
Mr. William Fulmer. an old and
respected farmer of the Shlloh section,
of Aiken County, committed
suicide Sunday night by hanging
himself in the buggy s.hed of one of
his neighbors. For some time he
had been in a melancholy state of
mind and only recently, it is reported,
made an unsuccessful attempt to
kill himself. Saturday night, after
a long rain storm, he left his home
and wantered off to some unknown
place.
Sunday he spent the day with Mr.
Jo.hn Busbee, who lives several miles
from Mr. Fulmer, and towards night
he complained of feeling bad. Saying
that he was going to the home of
another of his neighbors, he left the
house alone, an i until found dead,
was not heard of again.
Mr.nday morning, some one going
to Mr. Busbee's shed to feed, found
Mr. Fulmer hanging over tJie rear
of the buggy with a driving rein
looped around his neck. Judging
from the surroundings he had run
the line over the rafter above, looped
it around his neck and jumped
off.
Mr. Fulmer was somewhat feebleminded
and had at one time been an
inmate of the State Hospital at Columbia.
His family is a prominent
one in that section and they .have
the sympathy of many friends.

Dollars.
Despite the unexpected bestowed
upon her of a fortune of fifty thousand
dollars, Mrs. J. S. Hollins, a
trained nurse of Altanta, announced
Monday that she had no intention of

H. Wyming, a prominent physician,
of I>cs Angeles, Cal., whom
she met a little more than three
years ago in Savanumh, Ga., immediately
following her graduation as
a nurse.
The doctor wrote her a few days
ago that he had decided to make
her a present of $50,000 and the
money would reach her in a few
days. Mrs. Hollins admitted that
Dr. Wymlmg has a very likeable son,
Harry, who the Doctor wishes her to
marry.
"He has always liked me and has
often jokingly told me that I had
better marry Harry and he would
make me wealthy, but I never had
any idea that he would give me so
much money."

WOMAN BETRAYS
AN EMHKZKLKIt AND IIK IS ARRESTED
BY OFFICERS.
He Was A Bank Cashier and Had
Stolen One Hundred Thousand
Dollars.
Eluding the police of several cities
and private detectives for more than
two monl.hs, .1. Howard Lowerv, alias
James H. Johns.n, wanted in Utica,
N. Y.. 011 a charge of embezzling
more than $1 00,000 from tlie Utica
City National Hank, was betrayed
into the hands of a detective
at Philadelphia by a woman and taken
to New York, state before the local
authorities were aware of what
was going on. His arrest i? the reward
of patience and perseverance
on the part of Daniel J. Kelleher, a
detective of t.he New York office of
the American Hankers' Association.
Lowery was a note teller in the bank
and disappeared last April while an
examiner was going over the bank's
books.
Kelleher, after a long time, got a
clue which left to several cities and
then to Wilmington, Del. He learned
that a woman was in correspondence
with the former teller and he
spent many days in Wilmington before
he learned her address and then
kept tabs on her for nearly a week
before his vigil was rewarded. On
Tuesday night as he was standing in
an alley near the woman's house,
he noticed her leave with a suit case
in her hands. He followed her to
the railroad station and then into
a train.
Confronting her with the information
he had, he forced her to tell
Lowery \s address in the city. That
done, he took the woman back to
Wilmington, leaving a guard to see
that she should not be able to communicate
with Lowery.
Then he went to Philadelphia with
another detective. They stationeu
themselves near a house on North
1 6OU1 street, where the woman said
Lowery was living, and were on
guard about five hours, when the
man they wanted came out. Stepping
up to him, Kelleher told him
he was under arrest. Lowery was
stunned for a moment, but quickly
recovered.

was drowned Wednesday while
bathing in the surf near the home,
despite the efforts of a number of
young women nurses from the institution
who formed a human chain
anl tried to effect his rescue. The
nurses were on the beach with their
charges when Gallagher, who was
some distance out in the water, cried
for help. No other men were near,
and grasping each others hands 3everal
of the young women rushed
through the surf toward the struggling
bather. A strong undertow,
however, quickly carried the drowning
man out to sea. One of the
young women was swept off her feet
but was rescued by her companions

by a Leap.
At Chicago John Olowski, aged

Warning to Young Women to Beware
of Strange Men.
A special to the News and Courier
from Richmond, Va., tells a sad story
about a young girl from this
State. The dispatch says a young
uoiuan, 17 years old, said to be the
daughter of a cotton planter near
Cowpens. S. C., is detained in Richmond
by the police and is under the
tare of the Associated Charities
there, until sticli time as sue is seiu
for by her parents or earns enough
Money to buy a ticket back to her
home. Shf wishes to get back as
soon as she can, according to her
statements. T.he story the girl is
alleged to have told is a pathetic
one. According to the police, she
went to Richmond in company with
? man, whose name the authorities
do not divulge. He was a stanger
to the young country girl, and they
met when on a train, and she was
en route to her parent's home, from
Spartanburg. She is alleged to have
been lured away by smooth and false
talk of he stranger. She says he
proposed that she go to Richmond,
and she followed him, after arriving
living as his wife at a boarding
nouse there.
'The man left Friday night, telling
t-he girl to come to Petersburg,
but the landlady became suspicion\
and galled in a policeman, and the
girl was taken to the police station,
where arrangements were made for
her care. There is no charge against
the ginl, but the officers are searching
for the man, who will be charged
with an ugly offense when found.
The girl is pretty and uncop4i 1st idled,
and has evidently been imposed
upon.

Removing Ink Stains.
It 1b a very easy matter to remo\?*
Ink spotk from white material, but
| many become discouraged because
the first application of some reliable
ink remover fai s to bring good results.
The finest material, sucb na
nioussellne, cambric and longclolb,
hold stains much longer than a cheaper
fabric, for which reason It is n?cessary
to apply stronger solutions.
Pure household ammonia will remove
Ink from a handkerchief, (able cover
or any white article which does not
contain silk or a color. Put the ar
tide In an earthen wash bowl, pour
'ammonia over the ink and leave >t
for 15 or 20 minutes; take it out of
the bowl, wring out the ammonia,
wipe the bowl and renew the process;
then wash with lukewarm water.
Peroxide of hydrogen, applied alternately
with ammonia and dried i?
the sun, will remove very bad blemishes.
I.emon iuice tan be applied to
white silk, and should it be a silk
with a blue mark, the lemon wi.l not
injure the color, bht it would fade
practically any other color than blue.

Making Coffee.
The secret of good coffee is an Immaculately
clean coffee pot, fresh
boiling water and good material. It
is better to pay a little more for your
coffee and use less in quantity than
would he necessary in the cheaper
grades. The coffee pot should be
thoroughly washed gnd scalded after
every meal and coffee never allowed
to stand in it. If it gets discolored,
put a little baking soda in it once a
week or so, All with cold water and
let it come to the boiling point. Take
care that the spout and strainer are
perfectly cleaned. Rinse and dry
thoroughly. linlike most cooking
utensils, which do better work when
(heir newness has worn off, a coffee
pot is better when new, whether made
of tin, grauiteware. nickel or aluminum.
Many good housekeepers advocate
frequent renewals from the
10-cent store, discarding the old coffee
pots as soon as they become die- ,,
colored and strong. These are better
In the end than the most expensive
coffee percolator that is not kept immaculate.
The time-honored rule for
making coffee is a tablespoonful lor
each nerson and one for the pot. I^it
the coffee in (lie clean pot, pour in a
few spoonfuls of cold water to wet it,
add a clean, freshlv broken egg shell
if vou have it, or a tenspoonful of the
white of ess, pour on the boiling water
and let it just come to the boil.
Pake awav from the tire, give a second
shake or stir lite grounds down,
iheu replace and let it come again
just to the boil. Do this three times
in succession, then push back on the
stove to settle and clear. Some persons
prefer to make the coffee by the
cold-water method. In this case cover
the coffee with the required amount
of cold water, allow it to reach the
boiling point, then proceed as before.
The coffee must not be allowed to
noil hard, but merely reach the boiling
point each time. If not perfectly
clear when ready to serve pour in a
tablespoonful of cold water.
