CAMPAIGNERS AT CHESTER. K\l!(> < \M?ll)\Ti: ACCOIU>EI> Mill It VI. \I*I?I.A1 s| t ansier. Duncan and Evans llenl "NmIma" hi Malt' r of < lllVlInK? ??Veteran" i andldate Produces Merriment at Expense of Oppon? ents?- Speeches Mainly Along I'suul Line**? l.adlea Among; Interested Chaster, June 30.?Cansler, of Tir tah, John T. Duncan and B. B. Evans ware the real "noises" at the State campaign meeting here today, so far aa the cheering went. Whether or not this trio are the choice of the Chester yeomanry for the offices '.hey seek cannot with deflnlteness be stat? ed; but?they were the "big noises." or at least they produced most of the noise In the way of hand-clapping and cheering. Each of these waa lis? tened to with marked attention, broad smiles overspreading the faces of apparently Interested listeners, and a look of expectancy plainly written on their countenances. The assault by Cansler, for railroad ooniiriMi' ,irr, upon h's opponents, whom he terms a. "kids." and one of whom he addressed as "Buddie," pro? voked much laughter, and when Can? sler and his little black cap advanced to the speaker's stand loud cheers echoed In every corridor of the opera house. B. B. Evans was even more vigor? ous In his denunciation of Lyon and his administration today than hereto? fore, harping especially on the fact, as contained In this morning's news dispatches, that the trial of the alleg? ed "graft" cases In Chester next week had been postponed. The speaker preached a sermon today, taking as his text Daniel, S. IB; in which are contained the words, "Mens, mene, tsksl. opharsln"?weighed In the bal? ance and found wanting." Mr Evans received more applause today than hs has received at any previous meeting. Doubtless the chief feature of the meeting in Chester was the presence of more ladles than have attended all the previous meetings combined. An? other characteristic was the liberal applause accorded every candidate; they were al cheered as announced, and the people were In no Instances parsimonious with evidence of appro? val. Mr. Featherstone received his third bouquet today. Cansler started a Gubernatorial boom for Senator P. L. Hardln, of Chester, today snd gave It his en? dorsement, on the ground that Mr. Hardln. who had declined *o enter the race for railroad commissioner against htm (Cansler,) had thereby ? i.i*ni ? i Ml |l marked bOUjM ajul Judgment that he was fit to be Gover? nor Mr. K\ ans' reference t > "th? monument to graft erected on one of your principal streets." was, while lost on a number in the audience, a statement of some Interest to those scquninted with recent Incidents If] the dispensary investigations.

Jeffries und Jack Johnson tonight are both ready to light. Uolh men pom* pleted the long training work today and will merely do light exercise through the three days that will elapse before they face each other to tight out the battle for the heavy? weight championship of the world. As Johnson went toward his rooms after boxing today he was asked what work he contemplated tomorrow. "I am through." he said. "This closes my work." "I am ready; my training Is flniah ed. With the exception of a sprint now and then to keep myself in shape I will do no more work." This was the statement made by Jeffries late In the day. Declaring that he would not work out in the presence of Joe Woodman, manager of 8am Langford, Jack Johnson personally ordered Wood? man out; of the ground at the cham? pion's training quarters today. It is understood that Johnson took offense at the reported declarations made by Langford and his man-tger <hat the champion dared not fight Langford. The feeling dates back to the time when Johnson boxed with Langford in an exhibition at San Francisco several weeks ago, it is said. When Johnson returned from a jaunt on the road today he learned that Woodman waa on the grounds. Summoning the deputy sheriff on duty at the hotel he Instructed him to tell Woodman to leave. The offi? cer did so but Woodman refused to so. Lab r Johnson found Woodman ?tandlng on the porch of the hotel And mked him to leave the grounds. Woodman demurred but later reced? ed and left. The negro did eight miles of road work before 10 o'clock today. Th?s ifternoon Johnson worked energeti? cally. Under the rays of the moving p'ctur ? camera he toiled at gymna? sium, boxing and posing. John L. Sullivan was on hand to wat< t the run. Al Kaulfman and "Big Kid" uotton were Johnson's opponents in several fast rounds. ILLICIT DISTILLING INCREASES. ?statement of Commissioner of Inter? nal Revenue < aboil. Washington, June 29.?Commis? sioner of Internal Revenue Cabtll re? cently gave orders dispatching eight agents to Oklahoma, Tennessee and North Carolina, to assist in enforcing the laws against illicit distilling. Re? ports received at the bureau show the great extent to which the business has developed in these States of the South and Southwest, which local prohibition laws have relegated to the "dry" territory. Mr. Cabell says there is more illicit distilling now than ever known before in the States referred to. The field force has been Increased to the limit of the appropriation. Round-ups of moonshine outfits are frequent and a count kept recently showed that five agents or deputies had been shot in a period of sixty days.

Piedmont Cotton Mills to Reduce Out? put During Summer. Spartanburg, June 30.?The great curtailment among the mills of the Piedmont begins tomorrow. Mills in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia will close down until the morning of the 12th. Out of three million spindles 2,750,000 have signi? fied that they would join in curtail? ment, which would be at least a month in all during the summer. The movement will mean a cutting off of from 2,000,000 to 3,000,000 pieces of cloth or one-twelfth of the output. Mr. August W. Smith, president of the Woodruff Mills, when asked to? night about the closing down of the mills, said: "There is a loss in every pound of cloth we are putting out, and we have to curtail to cover, in part, this loss and create a demand for our goods. I should say the output will be cut down one-twelfth by the cur? tailment, which will be done this summer, and will amount in all to about four weeks' time." Mr. John A. Law, president of the Saxon Mills, said: "There will be the largest curtail? ment among the cotton mills of Spar? tanburg county ever known. The price of manufactured goods is out of proportion with the price of cotton. A great many of the mills will close down on the 1st of July, and others on the 25th.

What a Prominent Traveling Man Says of the Situation. The following letter from Mr. E. Van Sehaack, one of the best known and most popular traveling salesmen who visits Sumter, epitomizes the views of the traveling men on the ho? tel .situation and it is presented to the business men of Sumter for their consideration. Sumter needs a whirl? wind campaign or some other sort of campaign among the business men to arouse them to the gravity of the ho? tel situation: To the People of Sumter: The city of Sumter is deserving of as good as there is in hotel construc? tion and hotel management. The traveling public who visit Sumter are deserving of the best in the way of entertainment. The commercial trav? eler's having Sumter in their itiner? ary have money to spend for hotel accommodation and are only too will? ing to be separated from their cash for value received. There is need of an up-to-minute hotel in Sumter?an imperative need?and if Sumter de? sires to advertise itself as a wide? awake city, and one willing to make the guest within Its gates feel that he Is welcome, there is no surer way j of showing it than by the citizens getting together and by forming a stock company, make a hotel possi? ble. Other cities in the State are awake to the needs of its transient guests. Why should Sumter not be among the number? There is no need of a great, big hotel, built upon an elaborate plan at a large outlay of capital, but a modernly furnished plain structure is all that is necessary. Such a struc? ture would, in my opinion, prove en? tirely adequate, and a hotel along these lines could be made to pay a good Interest on money invested, be? sides proving a good advertisement for a live city. Citizens of Sumter, are you game? Are you going to live up to the title, "Game Cock City," that has been be? stowed upon your city? The need Is pressing; the patronage Is assured; will you rise to the opportunity. If you will every member of the travel? ing fraternity will rise and call you blessed?and spend their shekels with you. Yours sincerely, E. VAN SCHAACK, Member Grand Council of Carolinas, U. C. T. Columbia, S. C, June 30, 1910. Carl Hagenbec, the world's greatest wild animal trainer and dealer, was born in Hamburg, June 10, 1884. His father was a fisherman, who later embarked In business as an animal trainer with a small collection of seals and a polar bear brought by a whailing expedition from the Arctic. The father's venture proved a failure, | whereupon young Carl, at 15 years1 of age, took over the outfit and start? ed out for himself. Thus was com? menced the largest animal business in the world. Within a few years he had collected a fair-sized menagerie and he made a business of training the wild animals for exhibition. With the increase of the business he sent expeditions to the wilds of Africa, Asia and South America to collect animals. In the suburbs of Hamburg he established a great zoological gar? den, where he keeps his stock in trade, consisting at times of animals to the value of over $5,000,000. Nearly one hundred trainers and attendants are employed to look after the great menageries which supply circuses and zoological parks all over Europe and A merica.?Selected. Dr. Andrew D.
