Warrants for the South Carolina ■ youth’s death were signed three times Iby the governor of Florida, blit in i each instance a reprieve was granted. IThe case has dragged through the courts since December, 1921. At his first trial Nickels pleaded not guilty to the assault charge, but! | changed his plea to guilty on the | following day. He was sentenced | |to death. When an appeal was tak- j en by his counsel, a reprieve was I granted, but when the appeal was re j fused the youth was re-sentenced to! ' die. The Supreme Court later upheld an extraordinary motion for a new trial alien the defendant maintained that lie entered his plea of guilty under fear of mob violence. The youth was convicted at a see oml trial at DeLand, and again doomed to death, the higher court re versing the lower court's finding, and* ordering a' new trial. When the ra«e came tip for a third trial, a change of venue was granted on the ! ground that Nickels could not obtain ja fair trinl in Volusia county.

(By International News Service) Bamberg. S. C., June 4.r—Spell it Mussel Shoals. This, according to Dr. J. W. Dan iel, one of the South's foremost au thorities on Indian folk lore, is the proper way Muscle Shoals should be spelled. "No place name in the world,” Daniel said, “lias a better right to survive than Mussel Shoals. From time immemorial the Cherokee name for the shoals was Da-gu-na-hi. from the Cherokee dn-gu-na mussel, and hi, locative, anti, therefore means Mussel place. The shoals were known by this name when white men first came in contact with the Oberokees. I.et the old Cherokee name stand."
