ON IT COLOMBIA
South Carolina Executive Com
mittee Begins Investigation
of Primary Fraud Charge.
COLUMBIA, S. C„ Sept. 4.—For re
lief from the tense political strain un
der which the state has been since the
recent primary in which Cole L. Bleftse,
on the face of the returns, was re
nominated for the governorship, the
eyes of every man of both factions in
the state are today looking forward to
the state executive committee which is
now in session.
Nearly all the committeemen are
pretent ami an atmosphere of work pre
vails. The committee was called to
order by <'hairman John Gary Evans
and protests were submitted from sev
eral counties. Judge Ira B. Jones, can
didate for governor, submitted a pro
test of tlje election and asked that the
committee go as far as possible in fer
reting out fraud.
It is not known what action the com
mittee will take in approval or disap
proval of the recent election, which is
conceded both by the Jones forces and
by Governor Blease as having been
marked with fraud. It is generally be
lieved that between 20,000 and 30,000
fraudulent votes were cast, but wheth
er the committee will be able to put
its finger on enough fraudulent votes
to declare the election irregular re
mains to be seen. The committee will
likely be in session several days.
It is reported on the streets here that
E. S. Reed, the Burns detective who has
figured so prominently in this state
recently, is In the city, and there is ex
pectancy that sensations will be sprung
before the committee has adjourned.
Tite detective could not be found and
•‘ill that is known of his presence is
hearsay.
Mr. W. S. Gunsalus, a farmer living
near Fleming, Pa., says he has used
< 'hamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy in his family for four
teen years, and that he has found it to
be an excellent remedy, and takes
pleasure in recommending it. For sale

Girl Artist Finds Willing Sub
jects for Nature Studies in
Grant Park.
Miss Carrie May Goodson. wfTo lives
at 122 Broyles street and is something
of an artist, went out to Grant park to
do some sketches from nature. And now
she’s glad she didn’t pick the lion for a
subject.
Miss Goodson strolled down to the pad
dock and made a sketch of the dear
little deer. She drew the fawns and
their mothers and then found a cool place
on the grass and began a portrait of old
Buck, the head of the herd.
Buck posed like a statue for a while.
Then his curiosity’ led him to wonder
what the girl with the pencil was do
ing. Miss Goodson had stopped looking
at her subject and was bending over the
sketch.
Suddenly she saw a shadow on her pa
per and glanced up. There was old Buck,
his antler’s almost in the artist’s face,
taking a look at his own portrait. And
that’s the way the photographer, who had
been trying to catch the deer in a mo
ment of repose, got the picture he wanted.
TRUCK WRECKED BY
FREIGHT TRAIN AT
COUNTRY CROSSING
The Atlanta Milling Company's huge
auto truck, said to be valued at $5,000,
was wrecked in a collision with a
freight train at Plasters Bridge road
and the Southern railway tracks today.
The' approach to the railroad crossing
is through a cut and two negroes on
the truck say they were unable to see
the freight bearing down upon them
until it was too late.
Neither of the negroes was hurt se
riously, and after having several pain
ful cuts and bruises dressed at the
Grady hospital, were able to leave.
They were Louis Logi; 243 East Lin
den street, and Will Wright, 93 Fort
street.
The truck was tossed to one side
when the rear end of the freight car
struck it and, according to n on
looker. landed 20 feet from the tracks.

was estimated that it would take at
least all tonight to extinguish the
flames. One hundred and fifty police
and militiamen stood on sentry duty
about the burned district, watching
lest the fire break out again. A gen

the danger of a further outburst of the
flames.

from the burning Frazier pier into the
ocean, while others leaped from the
upper stories of buildings which were
burning beneath them.
Six square blocks were burned over,
and the ocean front from the Frazier
pier to the end of Dragons Gorge, 1,300
feet, was swept clean.
The known dead is J. F. Locke. cash
ier of the Casino restaurant. He was
drowned after leaping off the Frazier
pier after the flames had ignited his
clothing.
Othej# reported dead were three
Japanese, who are believed to have
been burned to death in their sleeping
quartets over the restaurant in which
the fire started. The other four, also
Japanese, it was reported, were caught
at the end of the pier and forced into
the ocean by the flames.
