Jones who is Being Given Too Many Privilege* In Orangeburg JhII. Columbia, Oct. 16.?John J. JoneB, the Branchvllle lawyer who was sentenced to 10 years and one month In the State Penitentiary for killing Abe Pearlstlne, is on the ohalngang at Orangeburg, It devel ops through correspondence passing between Governor Jlleasc and Su pervisor Hoyden of Orangeburg writing to the Orangeburg supervl *< r to the effect that it has been re ported to him that Jones hud been al lowed to go off on a three-days' deer hunt. The latter otllclal Is quoted as de nying any knowledge of .Jones' ac tions or presence on the gang. Then the Governor wrote him, submitting a copy of the contract which the Orangeburg supervisor and oilicials made with the penitentiary and Su perintendent Griffth last June when they hired Jones from the Stute oili cials and pat him to work on tho gang. The Governor warns the su pervisor about the alledgcd freedom which is being accorded to Jones, saying, "I would advise you immedi ately to read over that contract and carry out its provisions if you do not want to be placed in a position to re ceive a great deal of trouble, I am surprised at your saying you know nothing about it and then Unding the original contract here with your name on it." The case of Jones is well known throughout the State. There had been bad blood, it was charged, be- ? tween him and Pearlstine, who was a imerchant in Branchvllle, and in the postolllce there Jones shot him dead. Convicted of manslaughter, he was sentenced to 10 years and one month in the State Penitentiary, the sentence being affirmed by the Su premo Court on an appeal by Jones from the lower court's verdict. Ef forts of Jones to secure clemency failed and be was supposed to be in the penitentiary serving sentence un til the fact of his being on the Orangeburg gang bobbed up with the publication of the correspondence passing between the Governor and the Orangoburg supervisor over the alledgcd freedom accorded to Jones.

The tomato club girls especially had a creditable ex hibit in the booth set apart for them, myriads of cans and bottles of fruits and vegetables being shown. One girl showed about thirty-five varieties of canned fruits and vegetables. Con spicuous on the side of the booth was a placard showing that six merchants of Laurens buy annually over two thousand dollars worth of canned goods that could be raised and canned In this county. This booth was highly complimented. .Miss Wii ixni dray, county supervisor, was in direct charge of It. Through some misun derstanding the corn club exhibits were never properly collected and ar ranged. It was at cue time thought that the exhibit would be held In the court house, but later it developed i that it was to be made at the fair grounds. In the confusion that fol lowed, exhibits were carried to both places and some of it never reached j the proper booth It might bo said in! this connecll n thai some of the boys ! made very lino yields this year, one! of the boys, raising ns bushels on an aero of up! nda and several others came very near this mark. Poultry Pictures, Doubtless many of the poultry fanc iers were struck with the huge poul try picture^ which were stretched on the north side of the grand stand. These were sent to Secretary Cower by Congressman Johnson from Wash ington. The pictures were secured by Mr. Johnson from the lepartmcnt of animal husbandry am ill be sent by him to all the fairs ,i bis district. They make a very attractive exhibit for poultry fanciers, besides making a striking impression upon any who hap pen to be passing by them. Judges.

The mu sicians seemed to enjoy an acquaint ance witn Quite a number of lively airs and intervals between selections were not generally long. Splendid Order. The order during the entire day was splendid. Several arrests were made for minor offenses, but taken as a whole the day was very quietly spent by the usually hilarious.
