TENSION LESSENED IN j ! . CITY OF CHARLESTON f . Quieter Last Friday Than Any Time Since Tragedy of Election Day 'MODERATION NEEDED TO AVERT TROUBLE Militia Was Still Ready to do Its Part in Case of Trouble. ^ Charleston.?Charleston is quieter and less tense tonight (Friday) than rt any other time since the executive ;mmiuec mooting of Uctober lb broke up in promiscuous gunfighting. No militiamen wore visible, though two companies of the seven heretofore on duty remained under arms. - Expected action toward procuring the ?} discharge or admission to bail of tho prisoners, Brown and McDonald, accur-ed by the police of being principals in the rioting and in an alleged conspiracy leading up to it, was taken by counsel. They are held by Sheriff Martin under commitment from Judge * Mendel L. Smith. So far the charges, against them are merely blotter entries at police headquarters. The law gives the police a "reasonable" time in which to apply for warrants. Sidney J. Cohen, the Charlseton Evening Post reporter killed in the affray, was buried Friday, following funeral services held at noon in Beth Elohim synagogue. Col. E. M. Blythe, who had charge of the military, under orders from the ^ governor, returned to his home in Greenville, leaving in command Maj. A. H. Silcox of Charleston. Col Holmes B. Springs of Georgetown was expected to arrive to assume command. The ^BlackBox k 1 the tarpaulin," he announced. "Say, you ain't the river police?" "I'm Inspector French from headquarters," was the curt reply. "The sooner you hand him over, the better for you." "Do you hear that, O'Toole?" the other remarked, turning around. "Get up, you blackguard!" ? A man rose from underneath the oilskin. lie was wearing Craig's clothes, but his face was the face of a stranger. As quick as lightning Quest swung round in his place. "He's fooled us again!" he exclaimed. "Head her round, captain? back to the Durham!" The sailor shook his head. "We've lost our chance, guvi.or," he pointed out. "Ivook!" > Quest set his teeth and gripped the inspector's arm. The place where the Durham had been anchored was empty. Already, half a mile down the river, with a trail of light behind and he: siren shrieking, the Durham was standing out seawards. (TO BE CONTINUED.) o A MERCILESS JUDGE One Who Shows No Favor. A merciless judge is Father Time. Before him the weak and the wanting go to the wall. Only the truth can stand. For years the following statement from a Conway resident has withstood the sternest of all tests. f Mrs. Dora' Burroughs, Burroughs St., Conway, says: "I was subject to dull, nagging backaches, pains across my kidneys and other symptoms of kidney complaint. I got Doan's Kidney Pills at the Norton Drug Co. and used them as directed. They relieved me of the backache, and corrected the action of my kidneys and benefitted me generally." (Statement given Jan. 5,1910.) OVER FOUR YEARS LATER, Mrs L - - - l hi jjuiiuufcns saut: "i nave had no occasion to use Doan's Kidney Pills for some time as the cure they gave me has been lasting." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy?get Doan's Kidney Pills?the same that Mrs. Burroughs had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y?adv o NOTICE.

Washington.?The 28th regiment of infantry has been ordered from Galveston to Harlingen, Texas, by the War Department as a result of the renewal of bandit raids on Texas border towns. The troops will be used by General Funston to give added protection to small posts such as that at Oio Do Agua where three soldiers were killed and eight wounded yesterday morning in a bandit attack. The 23rd infantry, now at Jacksonville, Fla., in connection with the national rifle matches there, will be returned to Galveston, where it will be held in reserve for use on the border. Officials explained that the army was doing all it legally could do to check the bandit raids. The situation, they said,"was a civil one, under jurisdiction of Texas. Unless the Governor should formerly ask Federal intervention there is no authority for the establishment of a military zone and declaration of martial law. Many of the raiders live on the American side, officials believe. Army detachments guarding various towns may repel attacks but can not go beyond that without additional authority. As it is the troops are acting beyond a rigid interpretation of their power in aiding in pursuit of raiders. War Department officials, however, will give every possible aid to the civil authorities in protecting towns and ranches. noticeTof sale Under and by virtue of a morteracre ! executed by It. W.
