The Governor has not yet decided up- : . on what course to pursue In the mat ter. He will Investigate the situation 7 The Incident at the Laurens Tlll man meeting- Friday- afternoon when ' " Senator Tillman stopped In the jnld . "die of a speech to 1,000 hearers to . dive into his hand satchel and pull out a fan decorated with pictures of himself and 'the notorious lullan ji;; blind, tiger, Chlcco,'. of Charleston, re ' calls . that during his own term as '7 Governor, Chlcco was still operating ,s In open defiance of law and was sell V ing a. brand of cigars with Tillman's ' name on It Under the pictures on the .'.fan occurred these words, "Tillman- . Chlcco, The Determined." . Senator V TUlman said the . fan- was sent him by 'a newspaper man, who said they were freely distributed at the recent 'meeting of the press association on .. the Isle of Palms., senator. Tinman said that It was a disgrace that a -."-United 8Utea Senator . should be so - Insulted and he jumped on Governor "Hey ward for not enforcing the law . In this and other respects. It seems likely. that but one of the six hangings scheduled to take place Tnext Friday-In this State, where It -' haa so often been asserted that hang lngs are a thing of the past, will be '--consummated after all. The exception Is a white soldier who killed his wife In a most brutal manner with a piece ' - of iron while out on a walk with her. In a Jealous rage, and who confessed to his deed in a boastful manner. Of the two negro cases In Aiken county, . that of Luke Gray, who killed a white man for alleged violation of his home, has been suspended pending an In vestigation by the Governor, and the fate of the other negro has been stay- red by an appeal to the Supreme Court - In the eleventh hour. The Bob Smalls case has- been disposed of by the " Governor's commutation, and the ' CheroHee negro. Ed Ralney, who as saulted a negro girl who has since died from her Injuries, and the Geore- , town negro, William Glbbcs, who ' killed a bad negro 'In a fight, both - have hope yet. The Governor received a strong letter this morning from Col. ' 8. If. Ward, of Georgetown, in behalf , of Glbbes, recounting the bad rep 1 utatlon of the negro who waa killed, and still stronger letters have come ' In behalf of the Cherokee negro. These and a number of other Interest- - Ing cases will come before the pardon ' board at its special meeting to be held August 1st. 7 " - :at cuake city. - " Yarinu Tvnea' of IVodIm tocklns Rest i . . . n jaernaJ feminine in All Her .'"--Glory. f Chase City, Va..

To the KdHor of The Observer: ' I note ton article In yesterday morning's paper "A Plea for Better Pay." Tbla Is all right save In one assertion and for the sake of the treat erihy of young working women I -wish correut; or there may be a general strike among the stenogra phers, yeaeh thinking she Is the only one not receiving her just due. Then again it comes very hard to have one's hopes raised- high only to' have them dashed to the ground,' as they would be If the young women start lng-out In the business world Inter preted . literally this part of the piece above referred to: " 'The best stenographers In Char lot te make $125 a month, while the best teachers make but MO.

If there are ' stenographers In Char lotte receiving S125 a month, they are probably .doing what a man In the same position would receive tttl tnonth for. , "A young woman who can -spell and write ' a ' simple - sen tence" and can "learn shorthand in six months" does not receive 1 10 month. Jt takes more than ' a six months' study in shorthand and ablll ty to spell and write a simple sentence to command t0 a month, as many of Charlotte's bright educated, Indus trious young women can testify. It takes other . qualities -- than perfect spoiling and the best of writing, to command a 1st a month position. - 1 am in full, sympathy with the spirit of. this article, and particular ly for better pay for the teachers who have given Charlotte long years of faithful work and the benefit of these years' experience. The young, inexperienced teacher cannot expect to come under . this' list, but should have, hopes of rising to better things. Just so with ' the young woman en tering offlce work; she may begin for a pittance, nay, for no compensation at all (aa many have) In order to At her to even enter the neia as an ef ficient worker, and to nave the op portunity even to be taken on trial. The figures made In this article are so far from, the normal situation as it exists In Charlotte, for the sake of the girls you see carrying their book and pencil back and forth to the Business College, I want them not to be misled by this article, which no doubt was written with the . best Intention, but the wrlten was not aware of the facte of the situation. Also this Is not writ ten to lower the standard of. what efficient and capable young women may reoelve for office work, but. to put the situation In its true light for the young, inexperienced girl of Charlotte, and the many who come here to take up the study of short hand.

An accl dent that created great excitement occurred here Friday afternoon. Messrs. Payne and ' Carrol, of King's Mountain, were returning from Gastonla, . driving a horse and. . a mule. When near the large hotel on, Whetstone mountain the team became' frightened, ran away and threw the men out They were dragged down the mountain and across the railroad bridge. The road is very rough and rocky and the men were very much bruised and Injured. They were taken to Pr. Garrison's office and," while he was working with them, Bev. J. W. Simp son started in to offer his service, At the sight of the suffering men he grew very sick (he had not been well for some time) and fainted. It took some time' to revive him. The ex cltement drew a great crowd and va rlous exaggerated reports, went out. To-day the men are all better and Mr. Simpson Is almost himself again, but Is very weak. Mrs. Boss, of Cape Vincent, n. i.. who has been with her daughter, Mrs. C. G. Bobbins, since last fall, returned home last week. She was accompanied by Miss Kate Robblns, who will spend the summer In New York State. Misses Ruth, Elisabeth and Mary Branson Coltrane, of Con cord, are visiting their sister, Mrs. D, A.

French Marriage Reform League, after . numerous committee meetings and many months of delib eration, has decided to lay before the Chamber of Deputies the draft of a bill reforming the existing marriage laws. Thejiroposed reforms are of a most drastic .character, and may be said to begin and end In the divorce courts. Women are to be Placed on an equal footing with men, lnd divorce, which Is to- be made easy for both sexes, will be granted under two separate headings. ' ' 1 ' - In the first "place, a 'clause In the draft provides for a divorce for some specific reason. - Drunkenness, Inssn tty and sentence to penal servitude for some. criminal offence are to be added to the legal reasons for which a divorce can be granted. On the. other hand, the existing law which provides, that a wife may ob tain a divorce for Ill-treatment would be abolished under the proposed re forms, so that a husband, presumably. could beat his wife persistently with out the wife being able to get a di vorce. ' . .V: ..:. ...i . The most striking suggestion, how ever. Is that a divorce . should be granted without any apparent reason; proviaea mai ootn parties mase a formal legal request for divorce, and persist In this request for a period of two years. In all such cases, how-, ever, two years must elapse before the decree Is made absolute. . . The reformers go so far as to pro pose that arter this probationary pe riod of two years a divorce may be granted without any specific reason on the application of either one. of the parties,- even should the other party be opposed to the decree. Needless to say, these propositions are the subject of much criticism, be cause under such a law no marriage would be abeoluetly binding for a longer period then two years.

' .v::.?'"-v" Beginning with a fanfare of trum pets the first great scene was a sods of King Cymbellne and the crowning of Caraiioc, lils son. In very animated fashion the stormy elements of early British history" were .shown in sanguinary combats. toe t ween Brit Ions and Romans, Britons, Plots and ncoia, ana later wns cngiisn ana Danes, the fights being very realisti cally done, the players who fell re- malnlng quite dead until removed by the ushers. .-' The necessary touch 'of melodrama came when Thomas Fisher, an old gentleman In green velvet doublet and dove-colored hose with the bravest of plumed hats, stood to receive- a volley from the guards ' for refusing to tell where he had hidden the treasure of the King. -At the critical moment when all the ladles were stopping their ears to .keep out the sound of the deadly - musketoons. Dame Fisher, In a gorgeous magenta velvet gown, rushed forward and threw herself on her husband's breast at which the gallant officer of the guard ordered the musketeers to hold their hand. Then Fisher Is magnan imously pardoned and sent unshoe awnj'. The touch was genuinely trans pontine, and "brought down the house." Queen Elisabeth's Interview with the little fair-haired boy named Wil Ham Shakespeare, aon of the bailiff of Stratford, was exceedingly happy. The Queen kissed the little lad on hts rosy cheek; and when he piped up, "If you please, may William Shakes peare kiss the Queen?" she burst out laughing and cried heartily. Aye. truly." whereupon the boy threw his tiny arms around the neck of tho maiden Queen and most heartily sa luted her. At the conclusion of the spectacle all present burst Into the "Old Hun dredth" with grand effect The University of Loavain has pre served some of the ceremonies, which were regulated by the most minute laws of precedent, that In the Middled Ages acompanied the confenittg of the distinction off doctor of theology at this university aa well as in Paris, These ceremonies were revived oif Tuesday after the honor had been conferred upon the Abbe Van Oppen- ray, of Bemmel (Holland,) who took for the subject of his thesis "Predesti nation." The candidate defended hie position for several hours against for midable opponents, and finally tri umphed with great distinction. Mgr.' Van dec Weltering, the archbishop of Utrecht, presided over the ceremony, and at noon a long procession head ed by a band. In which the rector of the university, the archbishop, and the professors of theology took part. conducted the new doctor to the Church of St Peter, where at the foot of the high altar, the rector Mgr. Hebbelnyck, aolemnly Invested the Abbe Van Oppenraay with the doe- tor's cap and gold ring, while th choir sang the "Venl Creator." Sub' equently a banquet took place. FOR PUBLIC RECREATION. New York Spends 4i Cents a Tear for Hatch inhabitant, Boston 91. New York Sua. The city of New Tork expends 45 cents a year for each Inhabitant for what Is known technically as public recreation. This term Includes music In parks, public . baths, playgrounds flowers and recreation piers. The contribution of New Tork for this purpose amounts to more than 91,600,000 a year and Is rapidly ap proaching ll.OCO.OOO. It Is on a scale of liberality equal to that of most American cities, but comes very far behind Boston, which expends 91 a hesd for the same purpose. Philadelphia spends 46 cents, the same as New Tork, Chicago OS cents, Baltimore (0, St. Louis 25, Cleveland SO. Buffalo 45. Detroit 55 and New Orleans 18, a small as well as an om nlous number. Among the second class cltlea of the country, Washington la the only one which equals New Tork In the amount appropriated for public recreation, but with the resources of the Federal government to draw on the expendi ture of 44 cents a head for this pur pose Is not excessive. Providence, one of the most progressive cities In New England, expends only II cents and Denver, usually Included In the cities of the third class, 65 cents.- The total amount expended for pur noses of Dubllc recreation In the cit ies of the United States Is l 0.000,000 and the general policy of large cities Is to Increase this Item of expenditure by payments which up to a few years ago -would have been deemed Jprob ably of doubtful legality.
