Mr. Bryan nodded his head with emphasis and added: "I hated to leave Washington just now. 1 would not have done so if it had not been necessary. These are im? portant days at the Capital and I shall hurry back." Mr. Bryan der lined to make any statement in regard to the coming conferences with Governor Johnson and the California Legislature . "My SP!h*Sends.*' he said, "as far aa tny memory goes, is without pre? cedent. We may create precedents in our conferences, but it would not do to speak of them in advance." That the Secretary will have a hos? pitable welcome in California was shown today in five Invitations he re? ceived here by telegraph to address public bodies in San Francisco and Sacramento. Mr. Bryan said he should be obliged to decline the invitations from Han Francisco as there was no likelihood that he would be able to apeak there.

"I feel sure that they in California Will enter upon the work with the same spirit of co-operation as the President and 1 do.

Ad\ t HAS RIGHT TO EXEMPT VESSELS MANY AGREE AMERICA MAY USE MANY AGREE AMERICA MAY CSE Divergent Views Regarding Rlghl <>f United States hi Relation to Pana? ma Canal Tolls Expressed at Meet? ing of American Society Of Interna? tional Law. Washington, April 25.?Divergent views regarding the right of the United States to exempt its coastwise vessels from the payment of Panama <"anal tolls were expressed today in meeting of the American Society of papers read before the seventh annual International Law. Most of the prin? cipal speakers agreed, however, with Richard Olney, former Secretary of State, who held this country was en? tirely within Its rights, as the owner Of the canal, to make whatever rules ! It desired regarding the canal. Equally divergent views were ex? pressed as to whether the paymcn* by the Government of a subsidy equal to the amount <?f tolls to American ships would be a violation of exisltlng treat tits. The right to grant subsidies when not expressly prohibited by treaty, was not controverted. In the discussion that followed many of the extemporaneous speakers op. posed the idea that the United States had a right to exempt its vessels from tolls and contended such an act would he contrary to all existing treaties and would bring dishonor up? on the country. 1 In his address, which was read be J cause of his inability to attend the meeting. Mr. OlnSy dec lared that the "til nations" clause of the Hay Pauncefote treaty meant only the j "customers" of the canal, and that since a nation could not be both cus? tomer and owner, the United States was not supposed to be included in the words "all nations." He express? ed himself as opposed to referring of the matter to The Hague because all nations were interested in the out 1 come, but advocated an independent arbitration tribunal. This view was opposed by Ham? mond Kennedy, of Washington, who maintained that "existing treaties ( must be kept and only changed with the mutual consent of the high con? tracting parties." Great Britain, he said, would pay I nearly one-half of the total revenue of the canal and therefore had the ! right to be consulted, especially in {view of treaty obligations. I MENINGITIS CURE NEAR.

As the monkey is closely related to man physiologically, Dr. Flexner ex? pressed the opinion that it would not be long before a cure for the disease in the human body would be affected. Dr. Hiram Woods recited two cases of blindness brought about by wood alcohol. In one instance, a patient rubbed his leg with wood alcohol to cure rheumatism. The optic nerves were affected and in a short while the patient became totally blind. In the second Instance, Dr. Woods stated that a man had drunk about a half , pint of lhjuor which he thought was whiskey, but which really was com? posed almost entirely of wood alcohol.

Three children were bitten on Man? ning Avenue Thursday by a ?in* which to all appearances, and judged by its "actions, was suffering from hydro? phobia, or rabies The dog had been a< ting in an ag? gressive manner for a couple of days, biting chickens und snapping at indi? viduals. Thursday, the animal foam? ing at the mouth, suddenly ran amuck, and before anything could be done Jumped on and hit Robert John? son, a white lad of ten years, and Hertha Kingrand, and Ola Wilder, two colored girls, aged 10 and IT years, respectively. The dog was killed immediately af? ter it had bitten the children, and was buried. Mrs. J. H. Johnson, the mother of Robert Johnson, sent word into the city about the dog and the bit'ug of the children. Assistant Health officer J. H. Forbes, reported the matter to County Physician nr. P. J. O'Neal, through Mr. 10. 1. Reardon. As the, unfortunate oecurance happened at or near the old "Tourney Place," just outside of the city limits, the city '.health und police authorities did not feel that they had any authority to , take any steps in the matter. Dr. O'Neal ordered Mr. B. I. Rear jdon, who is acting as county health otticer, to take whatever steps he con? sidered necessary. Mr. Reardon went out and hatl the dog dug up, its head cut <>ft and shipped to the South Caro? lina state Bacteriologist, Dr. F. A. i Coward, for examination Thursday i night, Mr. Reardon was informed that the ' mother of the dog which bit the chil? dren had died two weeks ago of rabies. Robert Johnson was bitten on the leg and the dog's teeth punc? tured tht? skin sufficiently to produce bleeding. Hertha Kingrand was bit? ten on the hand and there was a slight arbrasion of the flesh, but probably ; sufficient, in Mr. Reardons' opinion, to endanger the child's life by Inocu? lation with the rabies bacilli, provided, i of course, that the dog had rabies. Ola Wilder, the other child bitten was not seen by the county officer. In the meantime if the examination 'of the ?log's head proves that the ani? mal had rabies there is ample time to begin the treatment of those bitten. A teleg:am was received Friday hv "Dr." E. I. Reardon, stating that the dog which hit a small white boy and two colored girls on Manning Ave? nue Thursday was affected with rabies and it was best to give treatment to the porsos who had been bitten, be? ginning at once. It has been learned that the Wilder woman, mother of the children al reay named as bitten by a mad dog on Manning Avenue, was also bit? ten by the same dog. Serum has been sent here by Dr. Coward to Mr. E. I. Reardon, who had charge of the mat? ter, and will be given by Dr. O'Neil the county physician to those who are suffering from the dog bites.

J. It. Thompson of Pcndleton Sets Mark for ihr World in Production. Anderson, April 2.".?It is not gen? erally known that an Anderson county farmer last year produced the largest yield of hay ever raised off of one sere of land in the history of the United States. The feat was perform? ed, if it is proper to term it a feat, it being more in the nature of ex? pert accomplishment, by J, R. Thompson of Pendleton, Anderson county, who raised from one acre of land a total of 12,700 pounds of hay, cresting the worlds record for hay land a total of 12,TOG pounds of hay, production to the acre. Mr. Thomp? son planted a combination of orchard grass. Italian hay grass, tull meadow grass and red clover, the blend from the four making a very excellent buy, very hardy and palatable. Mr. Thompson raised this record crop of hay off of an average, ordina? ry acre of land, the same being pro? duce,! under the direction of the i'nited States department of agricul? ture, bureau of demonstration. He followed instructions given him close? ly and minutely, planting his crop un? der the direction of the county agri? cultural demonstrator, J. W.

This year Mr. Thompson has plant I ed three acres to the earn* class of ! blended hay, and expects to dupli? cate his feat of last year on the great? er acreage. In fact, Brandford Knapp, head of the farmers' cooperative demonstra? tion department, agricultural depart? ment, is reported as having recently stated that no section of the world offers better opportunities for the raising of high grade stock than the Piedmont country.
