YOTJTTI OBEYS CALX? OF WAN? DERLUST. C H. Deal, Jr? Takes A Trip to Charlestosi to See The Sea and to The Big Boats. Krem The Daily Item. Sept. 29. Obeying ah inherent love of wander Inf and a strong desire to see the ships and ths ocean, which he haJ never seen. Hal Dsal. a lad of fourteen years, Isft this city Satur? day afternoon on train number 12 wHta 20 cents and a railway ticket In his pocket for Charleston, ths place which to htm seemed the promised laud of Canaan. C. H. Deal. Jr., a youth of this city was sent back to this place from Charleston yesterday morning by the police of that city In accordance ths wishes of his father W*H snt money to pay ths railroad furs for his return. Toung Deal does not seem at all the worse for brief trip out into ths gr?<** ovrld Is as proud of his adveniur* as 9 boy of his age is at a flr.e play the bass ball diamond. It seem* that young Deal was em ployed by a well known merchant of thai city to mil boiled peanuta on the streets on Saturday and that he with two other of his boy friends, decided to take a trip to Charleston oa the aftern' on train. When the C*ue came to set out his friends cootd n ?t get off from work, or back? us] out of the agreement, and "Hsl" deckled that he would go alone rather than miss tho trip. He had outy one dollars and twenty-five ousts In his pocket at the time and spout all of this except thirty-five reals for a ticket to the city of his demre. Arrived at Charleston, he at ones made his way to the wharves where he loafed around all night, seeing the ships and the water to his heart's desire. He slept what little he could In a boat that night, though the excitement was enough to keep him awake almost all night The next day he went out with a a* party and was delighted with large number of fish caught, and tho day spent on the water. That night he again slept in a boat on the wUarf and after wandering about the whole of the next day, Monday, he was taken In hand by the police aud kept In the guard house that night and sent on to flumter Tues day morning. It seems that young Deal Hi not wish hla father to know where he had gone but he was unfortunate In his wish, or perhaps It wae fortunate for him?for a young lady who worked at the same place aa did Deal, heard of the plot aud told his parents that night Sat? urday, whers he had gone. As this waa not his first trip off from home hla parents did not feel at all un eauy abgsjfl him. being confident of his sMlltv to care for himself where? ver he wss. His father, however, wishing to make sure about him wired to the Charleston police to bo os the wstch for him and on M.n day night they picked him up at the lb* Von station. Today young Deal is hark at *'Bool and It Is probable that he will n<?t try to make any mors secret trti?* ? . Charleston In the near fu? ture.

VISITORS ABOUT TO DKPAKT. \n Interesting Sight That in Witness? ed Kyory Afternoon, Swifts Come and (?o. Affording Public Much In* IgftM Kwry afternoon Just about sunset thousands of Uttlo chimney swifts are to be seen curding around and n.iind over the big chimneys of the City Hall, all of them finally disap? pearing In the mouth of the uhinv m V beneath. The little birds have created much interest as they circled In their swift gyrations, uttering Uttlo twitterings In their fight or as thoy drop down out of sight into tho chimney below th^m. If thero were only a few of them they would not be much notic? ed but the thousands of them that Inhabit the chimney are bound to excite interest and curiosity of the onlookers, who are numbered by the dozens. Another home of a very large colony of the swifts is the chim? ney of the Presbyterian church at the corner of Main and Calhoun streets. The Uttlo birds come from south? ern climates, reaching hero sometime about the latter part of May or the first of June. They at once pick out a convenient chimney for their home and start in at once to build their nests. They may be seen on any cloudy day or at any timo late In the evening circling over ponds and marshes looking for gnats, mosqui? toes and the other small insects on which they feed. About the last week in September or the first week in October the swifts may be seen for the lsst time during the year, for some morning early, about the time that we may look for our first cool weather, the little birds take their flight for warmer southern parts and we see them no more until June comes around again. There will he many persons In the town who will miss the little feathered visitors when they are gono. WOMAN BURNS BABY. Anderson County Negress Commits Fiendish Crime. Anderson. 8ept. 37.?Mary Gary, a negress about 30 years old, last night placed her two little daughters, aged three and five years, In a barrel half filled with water, rolled the barrel against her house and sot fire to1 the house. She then departed to a neighbor s nearly a half mile dls-1 I and t .t she had done. The fire burned rapidly and In a few minutes the house was one mass of flames The five-year-old girl managed to get out of the barrel, and started off for assistance. Before as? sistance came, however, the barrel had became enmassed in flames and the little three-year-old gir>. was burned to a crisp. This happended ton miles from An? derson. Coroner Beasley went to the scene today and hla Jury returned a verdict that the little girl came to her death from drowning or burning or both. The Oary woman was brought to the county jail tonight and when asked why she committed the deed she said that she just took a notion to get rid of her children and decided to accomplish It that way. She said that she wanted to desert her hus? band and did not want to leave the children In his care. The woman talked as if she real? ised the seriousness of her act. Her mind does not seem to be affected, though she claims that the death of her child last March made her go nearly crasy. The woman testified before the cor? oners' Jury and made a complete con? fession. Sil KP A III) FOR GOVKRNOR. May Be Nominated by New York Democrats. Rochester. S.

Sept. 29.?China is declared to !>?? Oil the verge of an dher upheaval, similar to the Boxer uprising, and the lives Of foreigners are in Jeopardy. Advices received here recently from government offi? cials in Chilli express the belief that an outbreak at any time would not surprise them. The state department has Instructed its diplomatic and consular officials to maintain a close watch on the internal conditions. All through the summer months there have been mutterlngs of dis? content in some of the Chinese pro? vinces, due to the rice famine, dy? nastic difficulties and dissatisfaction over acts of the Peking government as to foreign lnv-estments in China. Good harvests mitigated to some ex? tent the gravity of the situation, but there is still a general feeling of un? rest, according to personal letters re? ceived here from men on duty in that quarter. The army and the navy are pre? pared for any emergency, but their readiness is solely a precautionary measure, it is said, and does not in? dicate danger. BRIBERY WAS KASY PAY. Hoist law Describes Receipt of $2,500 for Lorimer Vote. Ch cago, Sept. 27.?Stato Senator D. V. Holstlaw of Iuka, 111., one of the b? Democrats who voted for Senator iiorlmer, on the witness stand today before the Lorimer com? mittee, sab' that after he had voted for Lorime* he received $2,500 and that he "sjpposed the money was paid because of his vote." The State senator, who until re? cently was a banker in his home town and had some prominence in the Baptist church, was the second witness who has been heard by the committee and the seclnd legislator to tell the United States senators who are inquiring into the Lorimer elec? tion that money was paid because of a vote for the junior senator from Illinois. A few preliminary questions were asked by Attorney Austrian before the receipt of $2,500 by Senator Holstlaw was admitted by the wit? ness. After stating that he voted for Lorimer, Senator Holstlaw in re? sponse to a question, "Was anything said about payment for your vote for Senator Lorimer?" said: "The night before the election of Senator Lori? mer I met State Senator John Brod erlck outside the hotel In Springfield and he Raid to me, 'They are going to elect Lor'mer tomorrow.* I re? plied. 'Yes, I tnlnk so, and I am going to vote for him.' He replied. 'Well, there is $2,500 in it for you.' That was all there was said. I in? tended to vote Tor Lorimer anyway and had made up my mind three or four days before that, and I did not know there was a thing In it for me." "Were you offered anything?" was asked, and the witness replied: "He did not offer mo anything and simply said there was $2,500 in it for me." "Did you get the $2,">00'>" was the next question. "Yes," waa the answer, "I went to Chicago Juno 1 , 1909, to Senator Broderick's office and he gave me $2,600, which he counted out of an envelope. He only said, 'Here is that money,' and I said nothing to him." ?Reaching the Top in any calling of lifo, demands a vigorous body and a keen brain. Without health there is no success.

Except when the horse takes fright at some trivial thing and runs away and breaks your neck, or escaping death, (you get around on crutches in a month) you run the risk of losing your immortal soul ("the horse is a vain thing foT safety") by passing him off onto sojne other fellow as "kind and gentle, sound so far you know, and never did a mean trick in his life." The Human Horse. Now the Japanese horse?the rick? shaw boy?is different. All the above named details he does to himself and his buggy. All you have to do is to step in. No bits in his mouth to steer him by?just a word at starting, naming destination and he will turn a hundred corners without a thought or care on your part. No bother? some lines to get under the tail. No flies to make him kick. There are no files on the rickshaw boy. Fail? ing to hitch him when you make a stop you don't have to go looking him up when you want him again. In? deed there are many instances on record of this Japanese horse look? ing up his master, leading him into his rickshaw and taking him home and putting him to bed. I find myself In a rickshaw, be? hind a rickshaw boy, bowling along a country road, just out of Shldsuoka. The farmers are working In their rice paddles, everything is fresh and green and beautiful. We come to a temple. My hors? looks back at me and asks, "Will stop?" A nod of absent is all that's needed, and my horse and I go through the temple, and he goes through the form of worship, and shows me how the bell, hanging at the entrance is rung to attract Bud? dha's attention to the worshiper. A five minute's stop and we are oft again. Tho clouds obscure the topa of the mountains of tho range lying at our right. My horse travels at a rapid trot. We have a point to make, he has agreed to make it at a certain hour and we have lost a little time at the temple. The clouds obscuring the moun? tain top break in places and sud? denly Fujiyami's peak bursts Into view?at that particular moment, sunlight, clouds and snow-caped mountain all combining to make a scene of wondrous grandeur and beauty. A Thriller! My cooley, my horse, holds one shaft of the rickshaw with his left hand and with not a shade of let up to his rapid pace turns sldewise, points his right hand towards the peak and says "Fujiyaml! Fujiyaml!" faces back to his work, both hands now upon the shafts and bends to his task. Not a fraction of a sec? ond hftu my horse lost as ho turns to make sure that I have caught the sudden splendor of his sacred moun? tain, bursting through tho clouds. I am thrilled! Ky Fujiyam? No, not so much as by the act of my humble cooley, doing a horse's work, losing not a second's time In the hard run he has engaged to do, but anxious that the splendor of the scene shall not es? cape the notice of the load he hauls for hire (whom he has never seen until that day.)
