I Blease at Boston. Why should there be such a raising of hands on the part of the Governors at Boston because of ex-Governor Blease's reiteration of his wellknown sentiments as to the lynching of negroes is hard to understand. | The Governors invited him there and they ought to haye known what to expect. His performance at Richmond was enough of itself to put them on notice as to what they would probably get. To have put him down on the programme for a serious discussion of the treatment of criminals was nothing short of insulting to the State of South Carolina in view of the gross and outrageous manner in which he abused his powers in this regard during the four years of his incumbency. If those who asked him to speak on this subject didjnot know his reconLthey should have done so.

This Coupon Go or Blease's utterances. The people of South Carolina gave their verdict in this matter just a year ago. The issue of the campaign which was fought out in South Carolina last summer was whether or not South Carolina should give its endorsement to the orgy of lawlessness which had been maintained throughout the Blease administration. Its emphatic ? refusal to do so resulted in Blease's defeat for the United States Senate and the election of Richard I Manning as Governor. It was Mr Manning whom the people of South Car- , olina delegated to represent them at the Boston conference of Governors, j The fact that Blease was there to brine discredit unon his State was I, no fault of theirs.

With many Mexicans reported mass ?d along the river where today's cattle took place, 3ixty-five miles ?ast of here, with communication aetween here and San Benito, in the aid district, all but broken by wire gutters, and a sudden calling to irms of all troops stationed at Fort 3rown tonight, the situation growng out of today's hostilities has developed swiftly to one of grave possibilities. Late tonight advices reached here :hat an attempt had been made to lut all the wires between this city and San Benito, nineteen miles north af here. Ail the wires leading to this direction but one were cut, severed strands being plainly visible, rhis was done a few miles north of the scene of Thursday's battle with troopers and Mexicans, but in the same section of country. At Poufl7A'? rVnaaino- u/hpr?- i.IiP battle took place today, the river bank is reported tonight to be literally lined with Mexicans, although it is not known whether there are any Carranza soldiers among them. Th? so-called Carranza lines run near the crossing and it is reported that a train brought many from Matamoros tonight to the scene of the fight. The place is closely guard ^ t ? i ? i i ;d since the firing ceasea at 4 o ciock this afternoon. With at least ten known Mexicans iead and probably as many more todies lying in the dense brush, the lght between a band of Mexican jutlaws and eighty United States :avalrymen, aided by Texas Rangers and armed citizens, ended late this afternoon. One American trooper rvas wounned. At 4 o'clock the Mexicans withirew from the south bank of the rlio Grande and hid in the brush, apparently awaiting another oppor;unity to attack. The battle had )een waged practically the entire lay, the two forces firing at each >ther across the Rio Grande at a 3oint four miles west of Old Hidalgo, Texas. The injured American was John Salvini, private in Troop D, 3d cavalry, who sustained a serious wound n the left hip. Capt J C McCoy, who commanded ;he American forces, returned to ' < " TT . | Mission lonignt. ne reponeu ieu \ iead Mexicans could be seen from Texas side, and that probably as nany more Mexicans had been killed n the brush by shots fired from the Texas side. Unofficial reports had placed the Mexican dead at twentyive to thirty. The number of Mexcans engaged was placed at forty. Resolutions Adopted by Williamsburg County Medical Society.

MEDICOES IN MONTHLY SESSION Adopt Resolutions Against Illegal Practice ol Medicine. The regular meeting of the Williamsburg Medical association was held at the Kellahan Hotel here Monday at noon. The meeting was presided over by the president, Dr W V Brockington, while Dr J H Pratt acted as secretary pro tern. The following members were present: Drs I N Boyd; E 0 Taylor, W M O'Bryan, W G Gamble, C D Jacobs, US JUICC. rtUUUl 10 ^aimuo v/x iiil juice will make 1 gallon of sirup. This amount of juice can ordinarily be secured from 10 watermelons weighing from 22 to 25 pounds each. The juice is then boiled down into a sirup in an ordinary preserving kettle.. The. juice boils without much foaming until it begins to thicken, when the fire should be slackened to prevent foaming and burning. The red coloring matter in the juice coagulates during boiling, and part of it rises to the surface, where it can be removed by skimming. The remainder floats about in the juice, forming red particles which gather near the top. Toward the last of the boiling the sirup must be watched constantly. If the housewife has a candy thermometer, she should take the 3irup from the fire as soon as it reaches a temperature of 220 degrees F., otherwise she should let it cook until a small sample on cooling is about as thick as maple sirup. When the boiling has finished, the sirup can be set aside to cool in covered vessels or can be poured while hot into cans or glass containers and sealed. Where a cider press is available the melons can be cut into pieces and arranged on the press so that the pressure will extract the juice of the pulp before it presses the rind. The juice of the rind is not so rich in sugar, and experiments with rind juice alone indicate that it is not suitable for sirup. If it is desired to make the sirup free from red particles, start the sirup boiling, and when some of the coagulated matter has been removed by skimming, transfer the juice to tall glass jars or other tall containers and allow it to settle and cool for a few hours. This allows the red particles to settle to the bottom. The upper part of the juice can then be poured off and boiled into sirup. A Wonderful Antiseptic. Germs and infection aggravate ailments and retard healing. Stop that infection at once. Kill the germs and get rid of the poisons. For?this purpose a single application of S'oan's Liniment not only kills the pain but destroys the germs.

County Fair Oct. 19-22 < W V Brockington, D C Scott, J H Pratt, E T Kelley, Theo Hemingway. The meeting was a highly interesting one from the profession's view point as a number of interesting subjects were instructively discussed. It was brought to the attention of the association that a number of quacks were practicing medicine in Williamsburg county and with a view to putting an end to such practice warning resolutions were adopted by the association. These resolutions are published in another column of The Record today. Dr W M O'Bryan was appointed delegate to the Pellagra conference which meets in Columbianextmonth, a?ifh Dr f!
