LUNCHING WITH THE PRESI
DENT.—NO BEATEN BISCUITS
ALLOWED.—ARE CRITICS BORN
OR MADE?
«.
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. It has been
j demonstrated, however, that this is a
delicacy that cannot be enjoyed In
the larger cities, or at least where

people live in apartments, “the cliff
dwellers” as they are termed.
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.”

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.

President Issues State
ment Regarding Report
ed Action of the Admin
istration in Matter.
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-

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. Book on Rheumatism and any medical
advice free to all who write and request it.
