*I£TTEft 3^(sm
By CHARLES P. STEWART
NEA Service Writer
Washington, Jan. 11.—Thirty years !
ago about now Mark Twain, on bis
way around the world, gathering ma
terial for bis book, “Following the
Equator,” landed In Pretoria, capital
of the then Boer republic of the
Transvaal. South Africa, and while
there decided to call on hi« friend.
John Hays Hammond, the multi
millionaire mining engineer.
It happened that Hammond was
in. He was indeed—in jail.
He and' some dozens of other Uit
landers, or forrigners, were locked up,
accussed of rebellion against Presi
dent Ktuger's government.
* * *
Coming out, Mark was stopped by
a Boer newspaper reporter.
“Mr. Clemens,” said this scribe,
“how did you find conditions In that
jail?” "He'd found them perfectly un
printable, they were so awful, but,
I “Why do yon ask?” he queried. “Be
cause complaints have been made con
cerning them,” ftie reporter explained.
' .“You don’t say!” exclaimed Mark.
in seeming surprise. “Now, I was
1 greatly impressed with the quiet of
that jail. It struck me ns an ideal
placet for a rest cure. There one
would be quite free from the impor
tunities of one’s creditors.”
x. • * * J
The next day there appeared in
that reporter's newspaper, which
wasn’t very friendly to the president,
Oom Paul, a violent attack on the
latter for showing such consideration
to a crowd of men who deserved se
vere punishment that the distinguished
American author, Samuel Clemens, en
vied them their prjson Tot.
The authorities were ready enough
to take the hint.
Liberties, of wliieh there had bken
none too mnny, were curtailed, and
“our menu,” related HnmmOnd, “al
ready very restricted, was materially
cut down, so tKat, for several days,
1 we were near the starvation measure
of calories.”
HIGHWAYS OF STATE
AHE CLEARED OF SNOW
Maintenance Department Puts 300
Squads to Work.—Nine Distrirt*
Covered Perfectly.
Raleigh, Jan. !).—North Carolina
roads were clear of snow over 3,000
miles, Engineer W. E. Hawkins, state
highway maintenance engineer, said
today, and buk drivers declared that
they are making the schedules.
The trip from Raleigh to Greens
brro has been slow only 10 or 15
minutes. The best roads anywhere
to be found wire the state thorough
fares. City streets and county roads
were not to be mentioued in the
same day.
The maintenance department set
300 squads to work Friday morning
and they have covered the nine dis
tricts perfectly.. Only a few sand
clay roads were in bad shape. The
asphaltic oil pavement and the con
crete surface are as good as they
were the day before the snow.
Many tourists were seen going
south today. They declared that the
moment they struck North Carolina
they fancied heaven. On every state
stretch they saw perfect main
tenance.
Negro Fattier Advises Son Sent to
Roads.
Raleigh, Jun. 9.—Arthur Pendle
ton, negro boy of IX was given the
chance to pay $25 and costs for
petty larceny today, but the boys
father told Judge Barnhill to send I
him to the roads, and it was so or-‘»
dered. The youth will serve four
months. .

Writer Jo lM**emlMit Say* North
CaroMoa Editor “Might Comtfder
It."
New York, Jaw. 9.—Edward James
Woodhouse, in the leading article in
this week’s Independent, quotes “an
able yomtg Georgian” as expressing
the conrietion that Gov. A1 Smith, of
New York, and Josephus Daniels, of
North Carolina, would make a strong
ticket for the Democrats in 1928.
In the course of a'Jong article en
titled “The South Studies Governor
Smith,” Mr. Woodhouse says:
"An able young Georgian, who has
taught in two Southern universities
and who is a close student of South
ern history and social conditions, has
expressed conviction that* Gov
ernor Smith and Josephuß Daniels
would make a strong ticket for 1928.
Mr. Daniels received some votes for
the nomination for resident -In 1924
and wouldl have loomed as a much
stronger contender if he had not come
from the South and been still living
in the South. A Southern man still
resident in the South is not apt to
he nominated by the Democrats for
President under existing circumstanc
es. but ak able and influential South
ern man as vice presidential candi
date would greatly strengthen the
ticket. Josephus Daniels represents
the Wilston tradition and the Bryan
tradition better than any other man
in the South. He is able, vigorous,
tolerant, nationally and international
ly minded. It is regretable that
merely living in the South tends to
make him unavailable as a presiden
tial candidate now, but, since the
growth of the fbeiing in favor of nom
inating for vice presidtnt a man of
presidential calibre makes that a
greater honor thaV formerly, Air.
Daniels might conWder It."

"What are these terrible yells, of

from an office window.
“I investigated and its all right,”

“Have you anything to say way
you should not swing for this j
crime?” asked the judge.
“Yer Honor, swingin’ mokes me 1
dizzy.” complained the prisoner. “I’d '
prefer to skip the rope.”
"Still fat Stock.
“Know where T could get some
liquor?" asked the stranger of the 1
village hotel proprietor.
"Well,” replied the latter, “ye
might try Mrs. McGinty down the
street here. She’d ought to have j
some left.” j

“Yes, they say her husband oms *

Hail the Right Sign Displayed. |
A new tailor had come to town and 1
put up his sign, which consisted of ]
his name and a picture of a large
red qpple.
Furiosity was aroused and finally j
a man walked into the shop to in- (
quire the meaning of the sign.
“Well,” said the tailor in reply to |
the inquiry. I’d like to know where I
the clothing business would be today ]
if it hadn't been for an apple.”
Didn’t Believe in Signs. .]
“This water is contaminated," was 1
painted in large tetters on a sign 1
above a roadside spring between
Mosire -and Hood River, near The 1
Dalles, Oregon. But that did not 1
prevent a thirsty tourist from quaffing ,
the water. Wheu questioned about '
his act he explained that he thought
that the word “contaminated” meaht a
kind of mineral spring.”
As a result, the state highway 00m
mission has disearded the long word '
and repainted the warning sign to
read:
“This water is rotten.”
