NO NEW LIGHT HERE !
ON THE SUICIDE CASE
A. S WALDEN DID NOT HAVE
ANY RELATIVES
BODY BEING HELD
if Medical College Doe*? Not Take
The Corpse It Will Be Buried
Hero Tomorrow
it iiad been thought that Ibero might
bo some new developments yesterday ,
in Hie suicide case but Cbroner Har
din said last night that, lie had been i
able to discover no new evidence. No 1
one could bc found in Greenville bear
ing relationship ta the dead man and ?
telegrams to Augusta, Ga., revealed '
the fact that he had no relatives there
so fat as could bc ascertained.
? The theory bas been advanced that !
the name A. S. Walden might possibly 1
have been assumed name but little 1
credence is placed in this idea. The 1
handwriting on Hie letter found in the
dead matt's pockets corresponded with 1
that to be found in the back of the '
bank book and this seems to indicate
that there was nb deception practiced
in the matter of names.
'From Augusta came the Btory thut '
un Augusta bank'bad received a check
a few days ago from Greenville, drawn 1
on the Augusta institution and bear- '
ing tho signature of A. S. Walden, 1
but there was no. account with such '
a person at the Augusta bank and '
the check was returned] to Greenville.
This goes to bear out (he theory ad
vanced by Tile " Intelligencer yester- !
duy that the man had been discharg- 1
ed from his position and penniless and 1
without friends he was forced into the
rash deed. . - . 1
It was intended Friday night that '
tit ? nnriorrolrora V\owr* totoitonnk * lw. '
medical college at Atlanta that they 1
might have the botjy but Instead of
this a letter was written, and BO a '
delay will necessarily'ensue. It is ex. 1
peeled that an answer will be received
tonight or in the morning from the ;
medical college, stating whether or
not that institution is willing to pay j
tile expenses incurred In connection '
with preparing the body here and
shipping it to Atlanta. If the college '
will not b?ar Ibis expense the body 1
will be buried tomorrow.in the potter's 1
field. <
So far- as is now known there was '
no other single detail discovered yes- 1
tcrday. -Much ?peculation was heard
as to why 'the man came here for the 'j
purpose of killing himself, but no !
explanation could be furnished. Sope
though that he possibly lived here in 1
years gone by and wanted to see fam- 4
liar scenes before he died, while oth- '
sra a oe of the opinion that be came to 1
Au?fixaon..tor tba, purpose, of con- 1
terring with Borne one before be took

VETERANS FUND
IS AVAILABLE
Anderson Will Get $1,500 From
the State For kniertainment
_t ?rs.\ ? ??!-!;_
?M v?? JuiUiCi a
For years it has been tho custom
for the general assembly of South
Carolina to Include in the appropri
ation bill tho sum of $1,500 to go to
tho town entertaining the Confederate
reunion. Of course this sum is not
sufficient to defray the expenses of
tho reunion but is .merely some fi
nancial assistance In bearing the
heavy burden .incurred by the annual
lathering.
This year there seemed to be some
doubt about whether or not the fund
bad. been Included ,in the appropria
tion bill. During the last days of the
general assembly there was so much
uncertainty about the various items
.hat were Tetb?d thar" lt was' thought
best to mako.i an:'investigation. Por
;cr A. Wbaley, secretary, of the
chamber of commerce, wrote to Co
lumbia for information on this sub
'ect and yesterday he received a let
er informing him that the sum bad
cen Included In the bill and would
te available for use In connection with
ho reunion here.

A VIGOROUS PLEA FOR
COMPULSORY EDUCATION
Prof. Wm. H. Hand Issued Bulle
tine Setting Forth Strong
Reasons
A vigorous plea for compulsor>
school attendance laws in Die South
ern states is made by Willam H. Maud,
state high school inspector for South
Carolina. In a bulletin just Issued by
the Cnlted States bureau of education.
After pointing out that thc six states,
still. without compulsory laws
South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Ala
bama, Mississippi and Texas, and the
four states with compulsory laws that
apply only partially-Maryland, Vir
ginia, Arkansas and Louisiana-are all
Southern states. Hand presents sta
tistics showing that although illitera
cy has been reduced rapidly in these
slates within the last two decoes, they
still have the highest percentage of il
literacy among the white population
"The opponents of compulsory edu
cation insist that the people will send
i ? lt < 1 .1 r. ,1? tn . I'l.n.il ..itjwiMt Ho
ing obliged to do so, if only they ara
shown their duty and their obi ?cati?n
to tlio children. These opponents de
clare that tile younger generations
of white children aro already in school
and neither contention ls true. In
1910 the 12 southern states had 78S.09?)
native white c'ildren between tho
of 6 and 14 not in school.
"Who are these illiterate white chil
dren, and why are they not in school?
Some of them are thc sons and daugh
ters of parents themselves ignorant,
and unable to appreciate or to under
stand what what an education means
to their children and to tlreir state.
Some are thc children of sordid moth
ers and fathers who are more than
willing to make wage earners and
bread winners of their untaught off
spring at the expense of their future
manhood and womanhood. Many are
At work on the farms, sacrificed to the
mnnntlTiniiM mund; Of nlnnflnjj cor.H,
cultivating crops, harvesting crops',
and again planting crops. Some are
at work in tho stores or shops or aro
engaged aa messenger boys, all at a
small wage. Many are employed In
the nerve-dulling and blood sapping
environment of the mills, receiving
good wages as children in exchange
for the vigor of manhood and training
of mind as men and women; while
thousands of others are roaming thc
streets and country lanes, the training
grounds for idlers, vagafants and en
emies of the la v, order and decency.
"When the state bas provided
school for all its children, it has per
formed only a portion ol' its duty. If
a universal school taxais 'justlftabls on
the ground that popular education Is
not a necessity, compulsory attend
ance by the state ie also Justifiable
The state has t?o right to 'iovy and
collect taxes for a specific . purpose
to be defeated' at the'balds of Indif
ferent or BeltiBtt parffate.
"Objection is often J?k?? that com
pulsory education' would' work hard
ships in the born?s of thc poor. Is it
not a fact that the child of the poor
homo ls the very one who needs most
the aid of the state to bring the com
plexities of m?d?rn lit? abd the In
sistent demands of citizenship with
none of the advantages common to
birth or wealth. The "poor child ls
j the very one whom ino ?tate ought to
*. help, because ho h?issel? is helpless, i
The argument against compulsory
tendance on account of the negro has
been worn threadbare; surely the timo
has come to drop it. Some phases of
lt are pathetic. Is lt wise or expe
dient to permit thousands of white
boys to grow up in Ignorance, lest in
forcing them into school the aspira
tions ot the negro child should be
awakened? Shall the white man re
main- ignorant in order to encourage
or compel the negro to remain igno
rant? Is it better for both white and
black u> remain Ignorant than be
come intelligent?
"I yield to no one in the pride over
what nae bc^n accomplished educa
tionally In the past 40 years. We
have planned better schools, Inspired
the taxpayers to .vote taxes for schools
and encouraged the people to build
modet schools, to lengthen their school
ttrr_is, tb employ better teachers, and
to pay them better salaries, and to
make their schools their pride. But
what has been accom piished In the
way of a substantial decrease In ll
literacy of the citizenship? Of what
value are all our school taxes, our el
egant school houses, our Improved
schools to the thousands of boys and
girls who never enter the doors of a
schoolhouse?"

V. B. Cheshire Acquired the Due
On Market Street
V. B{ Cheshire yesterday bought
from E. M. Due worth the property

bollier* jim. drink lots of waler
and eut less meat.
'When your klducys hurt and your
bael, feels sore, don't get scared and
proceed to lad your stomach with a
lui of drugs that excite tho kidneys
and Irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys denn like you
keep your bowels clean, by Mushing
them with a mild, harmless salts,
which removes the body's urinous
waste and stimulates them to their
normal activity. The function of the
kidneys is to Hiter tho blood. In 21
hours they strain from it 500 grains
of acid waste, so we can readily un
derstand the vital Importance of
keeping the kidneys ucllve.
Drink lots of waler; you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharma
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in a glase, of wa
ter before breakfast each morning, and
in a few days your kidneys will act
tine. Tills famous salts is made from
the acids of grapes und lemon juice,
combined with lithia, ano has been
used for generations to clean and
stimulate clogged kidneys; also to
neutraizc thc acids in tho urine, so it
ls no longer a source of irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in

lithia-water drink which every one
should take now and then to keep

this, also keep up the water drinking,
and no doubt you will wonder what
became of your kidney trouble and

Cheshire is now conducting the livery
stable located on this property.
The new owner of the property said
last night that he bought it for thc
simple reason that thc portion of town
in which ni? Investment is '.coated is

important Items to be considered and
said that he expected values to in
