Dr William B. Alford Dies Near Latta, i
Peculiarly sad ' is the death of Dr.
W. B. Alford, which occurred at tbe
old homestead near here Monday nient

modest, kindhearted, af?able and
courteous. He occuppied a big place in
the hearts o* his friends aud there is
universal mourning over his untimely

which God gave him were used wisely
and he was a pastmatser in the pro?
fession which he had made a life
study. As the inventor of the Alford

nence, and was regarded as one of the
foremost men in his profesi?n in the

impress it has left upon the world

PHYSICIANS ARE LIABLE
To Special Liquor Tax if They Pre?

Washington, Oct. 23.-A large num?
ber of letters are reing received hy?
the commissioner of internal revenue
on the subjeet of alcoholi3 compounds
scuh as patent medicines, essences,
etc., against which rulings bav* re?
cently been made and Commissioner
Yerkes is answering them \as rapidly
as possible.
lu a letter to a corresponent the
commissioner says that there is no
special tax under the internal revenue
laws for the sale of apple cider, but
cautions them that tne only safe
course for dealers to pursue is to tell
the beverage only under its true name
and not attempt to pass it off under
some other name. It is stated by
chemists that the pure apple cider of
the United States contains more
alcohol than beer.
In another letter the commissioner
writes that druggists may use alcoholic
? /aors in compouiidir.tr nnysiciaus1

Accident to No. 2.
Monaghan Hose Co. Xo. 2, met with
an accident Monday when teams were
answering an alarm of fire. Two
men were on the driver's seat and in
endeavoring to make a turn at the cir
ner of Liberty and Sumter streets, the
tongue of the wagon was run into an
electric light pole and badly smashed
up. Both men were holding the lines
at the time of the collision, conse?
quently making it impossible to place
the blame. The horses are not hurt
at all, and the wagon luckily escaped
further injury.
COW THIEF CAPTURED.
Lucius Reese, a Mayesvilie Darkey,
Tried to Open the Stock Market
Too Soon.
Bill Mack, alias Jim Mack, alias
Lucius Reese, a Mayesvilie coon, was
an , early arrival yesterday and
about 7:30 o'clock was trying to sell
a cow to Mr. W. B. Boyle. Policeman
Seymour happened along while Lu?
cius was trying to trade, and con?
cluded that it was too soon for the live
stock market to open. Lucius got
tangled in trying to tell a plausible
story and the result was that he was
led .the guardhouse and the cow.
was turned into Mr. Boyle's lot to
await the coming of her owner.
Further investigation disclosed the
tact, that Lucius had stolen the cow
from his motherland was trying to
raise enough money to ge^ out Of the
country.

What Advertising Will Do.
The D. J. Chandler Clothing Com
pany is one of the institutions ofjSum
ter and is kno-tfn far and wide. This
business has been * built up from ? a
modest beginning, each year being
marked by an increased business and
a stronger hold on the public confi?
dence. Two factors' contributed to
the steady growth, and the substantial
success that has been achieved. The
first is absolute reliability and the
second is effective and persistent ad?
vertising. This firm has always han?
dled goods of standard merit and their
guarantee is always back of eveiy ar?
ticle sold. All goods are marked in
plain figures and there is one price to
all. But this is only one-half of the
story of their succees. They have ad?
vertised steadily and intelligently, in
busy seasons to stimulate more trade
and in dull season to attract the at?
tention of slow buyers. For quite a
number of years this firm has spent
more money annually in newspaper
advertising than any ocher firm in
Sumter and they have found that ad- <
vertising pays. As the business grows :
the advertising appropriation is in?
creased. Reliability and advertising
are business builders.

My Dear Governor: Let me person?
ally thank you again and through you
your old historic State for your pres?

your coming to greet me. My only re?
gret is that on this trip, owing to the
necessity of trying to include all the
states I have not hitherto visited as
president, I was not able tc> stop over
in Carolina: but I was glad I had the
chance of saying a word to the citi?
zens of Spartanburg.
With all good wishes for you and
for the commonwealth over which
you preside, believe me,

SPEEGLE'S STORY.
Greenville's Defaulting Supervisor
Would Have Explained Had He
Lived.
Feeling that in justice to the friends
of the late Supervisor Speegle, the
public should be informed of the lines
along which he would have been de?
fended had death not prevented him
from standing trial, Attorney B. ?L
Shuman talked of the investigation of
the county's financial condition which
he has been conducting for several
months as Mr. Speegle's legal adviser.
"It is too bulky ta be covered here,"
said Mr. ^human last night, "but I
haye/an Affidavit which explains in
detail the transactions with the Paris
Mountain Water Company In which it
is alleged Mr. Speegle failed to ac?
count for $1,250 received from Attor?
ney Ansel. This affidavit gives an
idea of just how all such transac?
tions would have been explained had
Mr. Speegle lived. The irregularities
are all due to bad bookkeeping, I am
sure, and not to criminal motives."
The affidavit, which had never been
served, was signed by Mr. Speegle
and is as follows:
Personally appeared before me J.
E. Speegle, who being duly sworn,
says: That he is one of the defend?
ants in the above stated action. That
he is informed and believes that it has
f i
been charged by Avery Patton, one
of the special commissioners appoint?
ed to examine the office of the county
supervisor of ' the said county of
Greenville that he misappropriated
tnt sum of twelve hundred and fifty
dollars paid him as such supervisor
by the Paris Mountain Water Com?
pany. That he denies said charge.
That he received said money on the
19th day of December, 1902, and de?
posited it in the People's Bank of
Greenville, S. C., on the same day that
he received it to his credit as county
supervisor, where he had some mon?
ey deposited to his credit as county
supervisor, which money he had bor?
rowed from said bank as county su?
pervisor and left it there on deposit
until he should check on the same and
cause it to be drawn out in payment
of claims against the county. That
he paid out said twelve hundred and
fifty dollars for county purposes, that
is, he checked it out to persons who
held claims against the county in pay?
ment thereof. The following are the
names of the persons to whom he paid
said twelve hundred and fifty dollars
with the exception of about twenty
six dollars, which he had in said bank
when said twelve hundred and fifty
dollars were deposited therein, and
the amount paid to each person is op?
posite his name:
(Here a list of names follows:)
The above was paid on presenta?
tion and endorsement of the claims
by the claimants without any check
being drawn, being paid on the order
of J. E. Speegle, but said claims will
be herewith shown to the court when
this affidavit shall be read to the
court.
The checks for the above amounts
with the endorsements of the persons
above named thereon were paid by
said People's bank, an? said checks
will be shown to the court when this
affidavit shall bc read to the court.
That the above amount paid to J.
O. b'peegle was paid to him to pay
for mules that had been bought for
the county, the said J. O. Speegle
being entrusted to deliver the money
and pay some other expenses attach?
ed.
That it cost the county four hun?
dred and eightv dollars to build the
road for the building of which said
Paris Mountain Water Company paid
him said twelve hundred and fifty
Sol, the county thus deriving a clear
profit therefrom.
That the Chick Springs Hotel Com?
pany paid him one hundred dollars,
iuring year 1904, and he turned the
same over to the county treasurer of
said county May 12, 1904.
That he is informed and believes
that said Avery Patton charges also
that he misappropriated this amount.
