He was emaciated, his beard was un

supreme Joy upon Ids face. He grasped
the hand of Hob (Sent, the miner who
sawed the lust part In the second tail,
and said with deep feeling:
God bless you, old man. I want to
see the rest of the boys right away and
give them tny thunhs.”
At the mouth of the tunnel nearly a
hundred miners had gathered to see. if
possible, ii mull who had caused all the
k’orld to marvel—a poor miner who
had emerged from Ills tomb to find
mself famous.

Hicks was so strong that the stimu

were not needed. Ills beard was thick
and stubby, but not as long as might
be expected. Ills face find hands were
dirty, but Ids clothing was fairly clean

The Anll-Huluon League hail n>U ex-
petted that the measure to raise saloon
licenses uml limit the number of sa
loons would pass council flnully, as Is
shown In u letter to The Georglun by
Becretury Richards Monday. Mr. Rich
ards announces that the circulation of
petitions for a prohibition election Is
going steadily on. His letter follows:
I promised The Georgian on Muturriay
In answer to a telephone call, to give
some views upon the recent action of
the council, and the mayor’s veto of
the higher license ordinance, from an
Antl-Haluon Ratoon League standpoint.
I wish to say first of nil, us we always
do, that we are unalterably opposrd to
the license system In any way. I think
this Is clear to all, so that when at
uny time we may favor a higher li
cense In connection with greater
strlctluns und limitations, It will not
be taken In any sense to mean a com
promise on the license question.
We have not at any time given at
tention to the mutter of rulelng or low
ering the license, for us a mutter of
fact the higher the license the more
firmly tile liquor traffic becomes en
trenched In the political machinery of
our legislative bodies, thus clogging t he
wheels of progrers.
We have urged all along, though,
tlie narrowing down of the limitations
of the liquor business, greater restric
tions, und tin more perfect enforce
ment of law governing tile traffic, but
without avail. The fact Is the council
has gone on Ignoring 'our appeals and
continued to widen out und enlarge the
business, until we had about concluded
there was nothing to e\|s'ct of them.
They have made r.o offer to further
restuct or regulate until since out agi
tation of the Iiu stlon of prohibition.
Touching the matte r of the 12,000
license ordinance, we never believed the
council would pass It In the first place.
Borne of our executive hoard were tn
the office some time ago discussing this
question, and It wu« the sense of all
present that the council would not ihiss
the measuie, exc ept us u means of dis
posing of it. and then the mayor would
have a chance to check tt. Altogether
wc have Iwen watching the matter
closely, and awaiting the final outcome
of It v.lth much Interest, meantime

tion petitions, i ml withstanding the
strenuous effoits of some of the papers

Now, ns to Mayor Woodward’s state

that he wo* born on Sullvan* Inland,
May 12, 1780. The record is made out
and sworn to by S. S. Hunter. Adam
is proud of the book, and prize* it
as highly as his wife, who is wife
No. 6.
Adam ha* no knowledge of Christ
mas until he whs about three year* of
age, when he, along with the other
pickaninnies owned by his master,
used to trot up to the big house in
Charleston on Christmas morning and
receive gifts. There will be good
cheer for old Adam and his wife' on
Tuesday morning. Sergeant Woodward,
of the police force, has prepared to
give him a big Christmas. Tuesday
