CALLED COOK FAKIR,
GETS INTO FIGHT
Ardent Admirer of Great
Explorer and Friend of
Peary Faces Judge For
'Blocking Traffic.
NEW YORK —Hester street near
Eldredge. was the scene of a hot La
bor Day ’argument as to whether Dr.
Cook really has discovered the North
Pole, and the last chapter was stag
ed in Essex Market Court, when two
prisoners were arraigned, olurrged
with fighting and causing a crowd to
collect. The prisoners gave the names
of Max Gordin and Hyman Solomon.
Max Gordin was the leader of a
clan that denounced Dr. Cook as a
"fakir” and Solomon and his fol
lowers were valiantly defending the
Brooklyn explorer, when Policeman
Brennan and Sweeney appeared and
thougnt it was a riot.
There was no evidence of any blows
having actually passed, however, and
Magistrate Krotel discharged the
prisoners without passing upon the
claims of Dr. Cook. t

COL JUS. I. BON
DIED WEDNESDAY
One of Carolina’s Most
Prominent Citizens Pass
ed Away. Well Known
and Beloved By All.
Special to The Herald.
EDGEFIELD, S. C. —Colonel James
T. Bacon, one of the oldest and most
representative Carolinians died here
late Wednesday afternoon. He was
seventy-nine years Old. Col Bacon
had been sick for some time and the
end was not unexpected. He will be
buried at this place Friday morning
at 11 o'clock.
A Rea! Aristocrat.
Col. Bacon belonged to one of the
most aristocratic families in South
Carolina, one that has always been
closely connected with the hietory of
the country as well as the state. The
grandfather of Col. Bacon, Edmund
Bacon, a brilliant lawyer, was known
as “Ned Brace” in “Longstreet’s
Georgia Scenes.”
He had four children, John W., Ed
mund Speed, Sarah and Thomas Glas
cock —Edmund Speed Bacon being the
father of Col. Jas. T. Bacon, and his
mother was Sarah Bacon, first cousin
to her husband. She, after the death
of Mr. Bacon, married a Wigfall.
Col. Bacon had one brother, John
E. Bacon and a sister, Mrs. Baker, of
McClellandville, S. C., and a half sis
ter, Mrs. Kate W. Cheatham, of this
place. John E. Bacon was secretary
of legation at St. Petersburg when
Governor Pickens was minister, and
he was afterwards under President
Cleveland, minister to Uruguay and
Paraguay.
Col. Bacon had been a life long and
devoted member of the Episcopal
church, and ever ready and willing to
aid in the good cause. He was a
vestryman for years and for a long
time past has been senior warden in
Trinity church here, as well as or
ganist.
Musician of Note.
He was a musician of note, complet
ing his musical education in Germany.
After his return from Germany he
taught music here, at Anderson, S. C.,
and at other places. His life, though,
has been almost exclusively devoted
to journalism. On the breaking out
of the war of 1861-1865, he was the
editor of the Edgefield Advertiser,
which position he filled for many
years.
His service in the war was short..
He went to the front but was found
to he physically Incapacitated and
came back home, though for a time
he acted as secretary to Col. John
Bacon.
During the days of reconstruction,
when federal troops were stationed
here, Col. Bacon wrote an editorial
that was offensive to the federals.
He was arrested and made to ride
all the way to Charleston on horse
back. Nothing' was done with him
under that, arrest.
Early Journalist.
After leaving the Advertiser twenty
odd years ago, he founded the Edge
field Chronicle, which he has edited
since, well and successfully. He has
hfeen correspondent here for a num
ber of papers besides contributing
many special articles that were large
ly read and enjoyed. Among the pa
pers to whicu he has contributed most
are The State of Columbia, S. C., and
the News and Courier of Charleston,
S. C. Besides, he became quite well
known as a lecturer during the lat
ter portion of his life.
As a writer, he had a style pecu
liar to himself that always arrested
attention. While he could write as
softly as the breezes, when necessity
called for it, he could write in a man
ner to make his opponents feel the
strength of his mind. 'While gentle
and courteous to all, he was brave
and ever ready to do his duty. He
was well-known and loved by many
people of this state, Georgia and oth
er states with many friends who were
always glad to be in his company.
All Loved Hfm.
He was never married, but the
friendship of the ladies and the chil
dren for him gave strong evidence of
his lovable character. No wedding In
this county of note, and few at a dis
tance, were considered complete with
out his presence when he usually play
ed In his accomplished way, the wed
ding march.
Col. Bacon leaves surviving him,
his sister, Mrs. Kate Wigfall Cheat
ham, his nephew, Mr. L. Wigfall
Cheatham, of the Edgefield Chronicle,
his nieces, Mrs. Fred G. Swaffield and
Mrs. D. I. Denny, of Columbia, S. C.,
and Mrs. George Sharpton, of this
place, besides several grand nephews
and a grand niece, and Mrs. Angelina
Bacon, of this county, an aunt, the
wife of Thomas G. Bacon.

lEIMEOTO GUI
la Very Much Pleased
With Prospects For
School Year. Says Child
ren Must Have Health
Certificates.
Bupt. Lawton B. Evans has returned
to the city after a two weeks’ trip
north. Mr. Evans Is very muon pleased
with the prospects for the school year
that will open on ,-ept. 18th., but he
states that the attendance for the first
week will be rather small on acoount oi
the fact that many of the children win
fall to provide themselves with the re
qHired health certificates.
Mr. Evans aa.d that ae thought th
health certificates was a good thing, ana
he believed that It would go a long ways
toward keeping children, who have been
in contact with courageous diseases away
from the schools, until the physicians
would give them a clean bUI of health.
The certificates can be signed by any
physicians, and It Is to the effect that
the bearer of the certificate has not been
exposed to any contaglus disease rot
ten thoys, and that the child himself, is
not suffering from any disease.
The children o».fi get (tie btank cer.
tlflcates by applying to the principals ol
any of the schools, and It will greatly
; faclllate matters If they wUI pin the
certificate to the promotion card Mon
day morning, when they come to school.
If a child comes to school without the
certificate, they will be sent back home
to get one filled out.
The work on the John Milledge school
grounds, and the work of building the
new room on the Monte Sano school Is
about finished and these schools are In
readiness for the opening. The other
schools are In line shape, and the open
ing, If the children secure the health
certificates, will be a successful one.
