The ntory of the Monument told in these columns last, week has reminded 'someone to tell this story of a Char lestonian on a visit to Columbia. H<* l found that in that c ity everything was spoken of as being at or near or S% i far from “the sky-scraper.” He grew :to be very tired of all this, as ’it Is ! natural a Charlestonian should be when Columbia boasted of the posses slon of anything desirable. A Columbia acquaintance one day asked him: “here are you living now?' Quick as lightning canid the reply; .fust one hundred and thirty-one miles from that blankety-blank sky (Taper.” Apropos of a prominent Augusta woman having been recently enter tained at luncheon at the White House by President and Mrs. Taft, another Augustan tells of the charming experi ence of a Virginia friend of hers who lunched at the White House shortly i after the inaugural last spring. She bad grown quite friendly with Mrs. ! Taft through their mutual interests in some great public movement, but she confessed to feeling Just a little timid about lunching with the chief executive. Hut almost absurdly unfounded proved lor fears fu| the president waS as unaffected as simply cordial ond as altogether delightful as Mr. j Taft was known to be In Augusta be fore he became the president. He took her into lunch quite as he might have escorted any Intimate friend to the dining-room of his own private home, and seated her at his right side Presently he drew a dish of almonds up to him and placed It between them on the table. "I've never had enough salted alulonds in my Hie, have you? Let's keep these for ourselves," The talk (lowed freely and lightly and was pleasing In every way. As they got up to leave the table, the guest dropped her handkerchief, and the president, ignoring the watchful and presumably horrilled lackeys who stood about, dropped on his knees quickly and secured the bit of lawn and lace, restoring it to her with a graceful bow. In response to her em barrassed remonstrance, he said: "I just wanted to show you that I could do it." The Northern tourists all rave over the beaten biscuits they are sometimes fortunate enough to eat In Augusta, und not n few beg for the recipe of ithls typical Georgia dish.

Recently a one-time Augustan who in now a New Yorker became the ■ proud possessor of a machine for mak- . Ing biscuits, and her Augusta cook i proceeded to put It into operation. The biscuits were enjoyed, but the pleasant associations with them did not last long, for soon there came a protest from the people above, arid then one from the people below. It is a mooted question as to what these people unused to beaten biscuits at tributed tile unusual noise, hut there have been no more beaten biscuits in that apartment. is a critic born or made? This Is a question that is agitating a great many people since there lias been spread abroad the report that an un-named New York millionaire, In terested in the drama, is to give a million and a half dollars to endow schools for dramatic criticism at Har- ! yard, Yale, and Columbia. Several ; prominent actors are said to have been j asked by him to form an advisory i committee, among them John Drew, ' who, when he was asked about the matter, made the following very per tinent remarks on tho subject: "If this endowment is a fact I have not been, taken Into the confidence of the donor, but it Is doubtful in my opinion whether the scheme is espe cially necessary or desirable. Critics, like poets, are born not made. A man must have eyes that see and a mind that knows the significance of what is seen, but a little erudition except in rare cases is apt to make a young critic pompous and cocksure. Earnest sincere, fair criticism the actor wel comes, for in some ways it is a truer guide to development in his art than the response that he gets from his audience He has a right to complain, however, of the flippant critic who Sacrifices facts to scoring points. This critic Is now gone out of fashion and in his place is the man who tries hon estly to report what he sees from the judicial standpoint. One of the best | critics I ever knew once told me that | if he could tell the facts about a bad | piece lie never needed either satire or words of condemnation to make his criticism strong and stinging. And actors would rather take blame from such a critic than praise from a 'gush er.' A school of crlciclsm might teach young men a great deal about the his tory and traditions of the stage and about the historical Interpretation of classical roles which it would be well for them to know, but the great dan ger is that of ‘a little learning.’ What is most needed is a right feeling, a right Instinct that will guide the man when new situations confront him.” TIIE LADY IN GREY.

BARN AND STABLES BURNED MONDAY NIGHT Property Loss About S6OO of John Tompkins, on Calhoun Street. Eleven Mules and Three Cows Saved. At 7.30 o'clock Monday night the barn and stables owned by John Tompkins, colored, at 142 Calhoun street, wore damaged to the extent esi about S6OO by a Are that Is believed to have originated from the ignition of a match. At 7.30 o'clock the alarm was sound ed from boxes No.'s 232 and 228. The lire department Immediately respond ed and but for the quick work exerted on the part of every member, there is but little doubt that the conflagra tion would have spread and have re sulted in considerable property loss. There were 11 head of mules in the stable, three cows and one calf, but they were all gotten out of the sta bles before the Are had gained any considerable headway. The contents of the barn was about 500 bales of boy. all of which was practically de stroyed The total loss of the proper t\ and the contents Is estimated at S6OO. The Insurance carried was S6OO, which will cover the damages. COLDS CAUSE HEADACHE. LAXATIVE HROMO Quinine, the world wide Cold and Grip remedy removes cause Call for full name Look for sig nature E.

WASHINGTON.— President Taft Tuesday made public the following reports that the administration was planning a crusade against unlawful combination of capital: “No statement was Issued either from the attorney general’s office or the White house indicating that the purpose of the administration with reference to prosecutions under the anti-trust law is other than set forth in the message of the president Jan. 7, 1910. Sensational statements to the effect that there were to be a new departure and an indiscriminate pro secution of important industries have no foundation. The purpose of the administration is exactly as already stated in the president’s message.” Tho statement was issued after the president had talked with Jas. J. Hill, the railway magnate and had received information that prices were crumb ling in New York under the various reports printed yesterday and this morning. There was no further state ment from the White house. Mr. Hill said lie did not pretend to speak for the president in anything he said, «but he was sure that the president would not attack corpora tions of themselves, but the sins of the corporations. If the corporations were violating the laws of the country he supposed they would be brought to time. In his special message on inter- 1 state commerce and anti-trust laws President Taft in connection with a recommendation for a Federal incor poration act, said: Duty of Executive. ‘‘lt is the duty and the purpose of the executive to direct an investiga tion by the department of justice through the grand jury or otherwise, into the history, organization or pur poses of all the industrial companies with respect to which there is any reasonable ground for suspicion that they have been organized Cor a pur pose and are conducting business on a plan which is in violation of the anti-trust law. The work is a heavy one, but It is not beyond the power hf the department of justice, if suf ficient funds are furnished, to carry on the investigations and to pay the counsel engaged in the work. But such an investigation and possible prosecution of corporations, whose prosperity or destruction affects the comfort not only of stockholders, but millions of wage earners, employes and associated tradesmen must neces sarily tend to disturb the confidence of the business community, to dry up the now flowing sources of capital from its places of hoarding and pro -1 duce a halt in our present prosperity i that will cause suffering and strained \ circumstances among the innocent | many for the faults of the guilty few. The question which I wish in this message to bring clearly to the con- OUR.CLASSIFIED COLUMNS If there is anything you want advertise for it in the Classified Columns of The Daily and Sunday Herald.

BRANCHVILLE HAS RAISED ITS LICENSES Business Tax List Revised and Nearly Doubled. M, C. 'Browning Appointed Policeman. BRANCH VILLE, S. C.—The city fathers of Branchville had quite a busy meeting last night. There was several applicants for the position ot policeman for the town and after tak ing several ballots Mr. M. O. Brown ing was elected to serve as policeman under the new administration. The license system of the town was revised and in almost every instance the license fee was raised to nearly double as much as it was previously. Then came a discussion on the com mutation or street tax. It was de cided to increase the street tax from $2 to $3. Then came the dog legisla tion; it was decided to require every owner of a dog to purchase a collar at the price of sl, which the town will furnish and keep same on his or their dogs. If any dog is found run ning at large on the streets of the town without a collar on, the dog catcher will be notified and the canine will soon be in the toils. sideration and discussion of congress is, whether in order to avoid such a possible business danger, something cannot be done by which the business combinations may be offered a means, without great financial disturbance, of changing the character, orgaza tion and extent of their business into one within the lines of the law under Federal control and supervision, se curing compliance with the anti-trust statutes.” @ @ @ NATURES CURE SbSbSb FOR RHEUMATISM In a disease so painful as Rheumatism, medicines containing opiates and nerve-quieting drugs are often used. Such treatment Is dangerous not only because it frequently causes the sufferer to become addicted to the drug habit, but medicines of this nature are always injurious to the system. Rheumatism is a disease of the blood, and its cure depends entirely upon a thorough purification of the circulation. As long as the blood remains saturated with uric acid, an inflammatory condition of the nerves, muscles and tendons of the body will exist, and the pains, aches, soreness, and hot, feverish flesh of Rheumatism will continue. The one safe and sure cure for Rheumatism is S. S.S. It is nature’s remedy for this disease, made entirely of the healing, cleansing juices and extracts of roots, herbs and barks from the natural forests. S. S. S. does not contain anything that is in the slightest way injurious to the system. It is absolutely and purely vegetable, and free from opiates or sedatives of any kind. S. S. S. cures Rheumatism by removing the uric acid from the circulation, it makes the blood pure, rich and heaalthy so that instead of depositing sharp, uratic impurities into tho muscles, nerves, joints and bones, it nourishes every portion of the body with natural, healthful properties.
