The news of the death of Uni
ted States Senator Clay of Geor
gia causes genuine and wide
spread sorrow. He served his
state and his section well, and
it will take a man to fill his place
in the highest councils of the
nation.
D. V. Welborn, a young white
man, living near Townville, S. C.,
was burned to death in the Town

Mr. T. H. Turner, an exten
sive lumber dealer of Denmark,
S. C., gave The Sun office a
pleasant call on Monday morn
ing. He had joined his wife,
who has been visiting her pa
rents, Mr. and Mrs. H. F. Hai
ley, for some weeks. They re
turned to their home this week.
Mr. Turner is a very pleasant,
prepossessing gentleman and
quite a prominent citizen of his
section.
The city of Seattle, Wash., has
a policewoman. Her name, Dr.
Mary B. Martin. She has been
a regular member of the police
department since 1909. Her
special duties are “to protect in
experienced girls from unwise
advice, dangerous companion
ship, questionable resorts and
lodging houses, misleading ad
vertisments, to trace lost or run
away girls, giving to all the
motherly care of a Christian wo
man.” She wears a policeman’s
badge, but doesn’t carry a gun
nor a “billy.” Her only weanun
is a policeman’s whistle. Her
“beat” is the whole city.
“Guilty of murder with recom
mendation to mercy,” was the
verdict in the Emerson murder
trial at Walhalla, S. C., Saturday
night just before midnight as to
all three defendants, L. F. Can
trell, C. M. Gaines, and Chas. L.
Angel. The trial consumed four
days. Emerson was killed at
Walhalla, December 6, 1909.
The body was found under a rail
road trestle, and it was at first
thought he had fallen and been
killed. Later evidence showed
he had been murdered and rob
bed. C. L. Angel was a resi
dent of Hartwell a number of
years ago, coming here from
Bowersville, and was engaged in
the livery business.
Count Leo Tolstoi, the Russian
noveltist and social reformer,
has deserted his wife, who has
borne him nine children and
gone into voluntary solitary ex
ile, leaving her this strange mes
sage: “I cannot continue longer
to live surrounded by luxury and
like many other old men. I re
tire from the world to complete
my life in solitude. I ask that
you do not seek my place of so
journ and that you do not come
to it if it is discovered. I beg
forgiveness for the grief that I
may cause you.” While it is
true that Count Tolstoi’s family
occupy a substantial mansion, he
has for a number of years lived
in a peasant’s hut, subsisting
after the frugal manner of a
peasant and wearing a peasant’s
costume. Evidently Tolstoi has
lost his mind.

THE HARTWELL SUN, NOVEMBER 18 1910
Tom Corwine
Polyphonic Imitator
HE IS THE FUN MAKER I !
At College Auditorium, Monday
night, November 28
There are many entertainers
whose business it is to make the
public laugh—actors, magicians,
elocutionits, etc, but as an imi
tator and humorist, Tom Cor
wine stands alone. His person
ality is sufficient to win an audi
ence, and, as the greatest imita
tor on the American stage, in
connection with his humorous
and literary selections, never
fails to more than satisfy his
audience with an entertainment
of rare pleasure. Many of his
imitations are so wonderful, that
it leaves the audience spellbound,
doubting whether he has not
some artificial means to assist
him. His abnormally developed
faculty of imitation, working
upon lungs, mouth and lips, is
all the assistance required. His
humorous sketches are irresisti
bly laughable, and in this alone
he can entertain his listeners
for a whole evening.
His entire program is abso
lutely of the highest order, as is
evidenced by the many church
engagements filled during the
past seasons.
OSBORNE-O’gARR
The marriage of Miss Leila Os
borne to Mr. Mitchell L. U’Barr,
both of Reed Creek, was one of
the interesting events of the
past week. The marriage was
solemnized on Sunday afternoon,
November 14th, 1910, at the
home of their cousin, Rev. F. M.
Estes, who performed the cere
mony. The young couple sur
prised their most intimate
friends by their sudden union,
althpugh it was believed that
cupid was playing a part, and
that the two would be made one
at an early date.
Miss Osborne is the daughter
of Mrs. Mary Osborne, of Reed
Creek, who has won for herself
many friends by her lovely dis
position and many beautiful
traits of character.
Mr. O’Barr is the handsome
son of Mr. and Mrs. W.J.O’Bair
also of Reed Creek and one of
Hart county’s most successful
young farmers.
The couple have the well
wishes of their numerous friends.
