OP T POLICE JOBS “DU job la auinpUn' fierce,” la proba bly the substance of the thoughts of Clerk Henry M. Wood, of the county board of commissioners. The aaplranta to membership on the county police force have him besieged. The creation of the twenty-four new positions last Saturday set, It seems, the majority of the ctttaenshlp of the county who are out of work, or making less than $100 per month, to thinking they would make the very kind of goods necessary for enforcing the sub urban law. Although the job paya but $75 per month, and the men have to furnish everything from hnndcuffa to horse, several men who are making well' above that monthly stipend ■■ endeavoring to convince the county that It needs them on Its payroll. Although one of the strict require ments of a county policeman is sobrle- \y, dosens of more or less frequent ftprfera are telling what fine men they are for the job. and go ahead und subscribe their names to the statement on the application blanks that they are "Strictly sober and In no wise addicted to the use of Intoxicants” They have been crowding Mr. Wood’s ©ftlee all day, laboriously writing out their applications, while they oonder over the questions: ”Are you married or single?” and ’’What was your last Jsb?” "Borne of them haven't seen their last Job In so long that they wouldn’t know It If they met It In the road,” said one of the county officials. One applicant couldn't write and some one had to make out his blank for him. The majority of the men, however, look as If they,would make good offi cers. The varied assortment Includes city firemen, city policemen, street rail way employees, farmers, constables, some unclassified and others who could almost be classed as ’’bums.” E. V. Carter, chairman of the com missioners' committee on roads and bridges, said Wednesday afternoon that he would call a meeting as soon as all of the members of the committee were In the city at the same time, to con sider the location of the three stations where the force will be located after the new men are selected next Wed nesday.

It Is genitralty conceded by those who have kept up with the political situa tion sine* the recent primary, that Hon. Henry H. Cebentee, of Fulton, and Hon. E. I,. Martin, of Bibb, trill be the secretaries of the Democratic convention In Maconi when It aesem. blee next Tuesday. That Mr. Cabanlse Is elated for oqe of these pieces there cen be no doubt, for Hon. Hoke Bmlth’e official organ hat stated that he “will be put forward for one at the eecretaryshlpe of the State Democratic convention that It to meet In Macon, September 4." The suggestion of these two nunti for eecretariee of that convention hae brought on more tslk, to the effect that may mean that these gentlemen may respectively oppose Hon. Charley Northen for secretary of the senate, and Hon. John T. Bolfeulllet for clerk ' the houae. A close friend of Mr. Cabanlse said Wednesday that Mr. Cabanlss would offer for secretary of the convention, but would not run for secretary of the eenate. In naming these men as secretaries that convention, an unbroken prece dent for over a quarter of a century will be set aside. Ever since Bill Har ris. of Worth, and Mark Hardin, of Bartow, became secretary of the sen ate and clerk of the home, respective ly, It has been the custom for these of- fleers to act an secretaries of the Democratic convention. Should these gentlemen contest with Messrs. Northen and Bolfeulllet, there would be considerable conjecture as to the final outcome. The latter have the bulge, so tn speak, as they have been campaigning for several months, and If the former should win out, It would be due almost entirely tn the moral effect of the overwhelming Smith victory. Measrs. Northen and Bolfeulllet. It Is said, are not losing any sleep over this anticipated opposition, ns both of these gentlemen, so It was stated at the cap- Itot Wednesday, claim that they have already pledged to them more than enough votes to Insure thetr re-election. One of the real surprises of the cam paign, however, la the overriding of the unbroken precedent of the past for the clerk of the house nnd secretary the senate tn serve ns ee«w*rariea the state Demoeratlb convention.

Philadelphia, Aug. 29.—A crowd of angry depositors, Including many wo men, clashed with the police today In front of the collapsed real estate trust company bulldjng at Broad and Cheit- nut streeta. The line blocked the city's business and the detail of police left on guard over night was unable to cope with them. At first the women depositors gave vent to their feelings by tears, but finally the crowds pressed forward and made threats against the officers. With the greatest difficulty the police kept them From storming the building. The victims refused to disperse, how ever, even when threatened with arrest, and further outbreaks are expected. “Kill the officers now and Investigate later," Bhouted an excited man In the crowd. He was promptly arrested. Rssarvss Called Out The bank building Is closed nnd even the employees are IJarfed. Many aged clergymen are among those who suffered through (he (7,000,000 failure.

Ansell and Lyon, the two candidates fought by Tillman, secured considerably more than a majority. Lyon's victory Is a great triumph. In Newberry county he ran 4 to 1. This Is the home of Hub Evans, former chairman of the state board of control, where there was nearly a riot when Lyon spoke. Ansel’s lead Is such that he will have nearly a majority on the first ballot, and cannot be stopped In a aec- ond primary. McCowan Is elected secretary of state, anil Boyd adjutant general, over all opposition. J. T. Johnston, of Spartanburg; Wyatt Aiken, of Abbe- vllle: J. O. Patterson, of Barnwell, and D. E.
