Bailey, president and owner of the
South Carolina Co-Educational In

flattering offer to remove the lnstl- |

The co-educational feature will be
eliminated and the school will open
next September under the name of
the Bailey Military Institute.
Greenwood's offer of commodious,
modernly constructed buildings lo
cated on a beautiful ten-acre site in
a choice section of the city, has been
under consideration by President
Bailey for more than a month, but
tho matter has been kept out of the
newspapers until a final decision
could be rendered.
The Bailey Military Institute, as

The barracks will accommodate at
least 150 boarding pupils. The cur

Edison Get? Meda]?
The American Museum of Safety '
at Its annual meeting will present
the Rathenau medal to Thomas A.
Edison. The medal was first pre
sented to Dr. Emil Rathenau, of
Germany, ^n 1908, on his 70th birth
day. He-eafter one medal is to be
struck from the original die each
year for the American Museum of
Safety to award to the person who
has perfected the best device for
safe-guarding life and health in the
electrical industry. Mr. Edison gets
the medal because the use of his
storage battery in mines, tunnels,
buildings, etc., where explosives are
made or stored or where explosive
gases are generated has materially
reduced the hazard of workers.

MIKS COULD WEDS MK. SHEUARD
Wealthy Woman Bride of Railway
Man-?'.cani it Ul Church Scene.
Tarrytown, N. Y., Jan. 22.-Miss
Helen Miller Gould was married at
12.30 o'clock this afternoon at
Lyndhurst, her country estate, to
Finley Johnson Shepard, an Ameri
can railroad man who has risen from
the ranks.
The bride went to the altar, halt
bidden by roses, asparagus ferns
and palms, with her brother, George
J. Gould, who gave her in marriage.
An orchestra, screened by masses of
flowers in the music room, played
Lohengrin's Wedding March, while
Rev. Daniel D. Russell, pastor of the
Irvington Presbyterian church, per
formed the ceremony. Helen and
Dorothy Gould, nieces of Miss
Gould, acted as flower girls and
were her only attendants. Louis J.
! Shepard, brother of the bridegroom,
was best man.
I
I The couple stood during the cere
I mony beneath a bower of American
Beauty roses, with festoons of gray
white asparagus reaching almost to
tie ground. The bride carried a
modest bouquet of lilies of the val
le}, her favorite flower.
A rope of exquisite pearls, said
once to have adorned Empress Jose
phine, and a pear-shaped diamond
pendant, the latter the bridegroom's
gift, were the only jewelry worn by
the bride. The pearls were a be
quest from Miss Gould's mother.
Beautiful Gown.
The wedding gown was of duch
esse ivory satin, with a sweeping
train three and a half yards long,
trimmed with duchess and rose point
lace and with seed pearl embroid
ery. The lace and voil were gifts
from the Duchess de Tallyrand, for
merly Miss Anna Gould, the bride's
sister. The veli was held with a
spray of orange blossoms and swept
In flowing lines to the end of the
long train. Orange blossoms also
caught up the lace at the sides of
the skirt. The bride's slippers cor
responded with the gown and were
trimmed -with small rosettes of or
ange blossoms.
A Small Crowd.
Less than 100 persons were bid
den to the ceremony. They included
close relatives of the bride and
bridegroom and friends of long
standing.
Thousands of Gifts.
Had not the gallery been an im
mense room, there would not have
been space for the thousands of gifts
that have come from all over the
world. Chief among these were
presents from the relatives of the
bride and her friends; from the
army, the navy, the railroad organi
zations aided by her, tho Young
Men's Christian Association; from
officers of the Gould railroads and
from the employees at Miss Gould's
country and city homos.
After the ceremony Mr. and Mrs.
Shepard remained at Lyndhurst.
They have not announced where
they will spend their honeymoon.

HOW TMS CONVICTS GET DOPE.
AecLdontalr/ IM ?covered Concealed in
Embossed Picture Post Cards.
OssiniDg, N. Y., Jan. 21.-Tho ac
cidental dropping of a weight has
cleared up a mystery which has been
puzzling th? wardens of Sing Sing
prison from the time of Warden Sage
down to Jchn S. Kennedy, the incum
bent.
The weight in question showed how
drugs like opium, morphine, cocaine,
in powder form, and other things get
to the convicts. The discovery will
be of benefit to the wardens of every
other prison of the State and to keep
ers of city prisons like the Tombs in
New York. It has been shipped in
picture post cards. Kurther than
that, from Investigations already ad
opted by Warden Kennedy, it appears
that as far as the New York supply
is concerned one woman has bern
the principal manufacturer, having a
large stock of drugged postals on
hand, which fact was known to the
friends of men in prison who must
have drugs.
No one thought anything of lt when
the postal card craze manifested it
self in the prison five or six years
ago, because the convicts keep pretty
well abreast of the times.
Some of the cards were movable,
the embossing being prominent and
large. The mall that arrived one
morning a week or more ago contain
ed several score o? these cards and
all were taken to the proper official
to be examined, as ls the rule. The
man sat at his desk, the cards before
him. In some way or other, either
a weight or a book dropped on one
of the largest post cards In such a
manner that the edge of it struck on
the edge of the embossing, cutting a
hole. To the surprise of the man
at the desk, a tiny speck of white
dropped before him. He picked lt
up. It looked like tho segment of a
small morphine pill. He took it to
the prison physician and such. It
proved to be. ^
The embossing was ripped loose
and the hollow space of It wae found
to be filled with more morphine pills,
a goodly number of them a half grain
In strength and concentrated.
An examination of every other
embossed postal card in the batch
showed that two-thirds of them had
some kind of drug in them, enough
to last a fiend until the next postal
card was received,

FIFTY PERSONS ARE BURIED
When Texas Store Collapses During
a Bargain Sale.
McKinney, Texas, Jan. 23.-About
fifty persons, many of them women
and girl shoppers, were caught in the
collapse here this afternoon of the
Cheeves Brothers' department store,
occupying two floors of a three-story
brick building. The ruins caught
fire, burning for an hour, suffocating
or burning, outright victims who had
not been crushed to death.
Six hours after the collapse seven
dead and thirteen injured had been
taken from the smoking pile, and
hopes of finding any more allvo were
dwindling. Vernie Graves, t'.e only
one known to get out unhurt ?vhen
.the walls fell, said there were at
least fifty in the building. An ad
joining building fell without Injur
ing any one.
The Dead and Injured.
Tho known dead are: Rosa
Welch, Miss Katie Milligan, Miss
Bessie Wade, Russell Height (four
years old), N. R. Preley, clerk; Mrs.
Mary Stiff, clerk; Miss Eva Searcy,
cler^. The last two died after being
removed fro,m the wrecked building.
Seriously injured:' Miss Annie Cur
tis, Mrs. Mert Shirley, Mrs. Jennie
Barnett.
Two of the dead were taken from
tho debris alive, but died within an
hour at a sanitarium. One of these,
Mrs. Mary Stiff, pleaded with the
firemen working In the tangled mass
above her to kill her, as the fire was
rapidly reaching her. She was
brought out barely alive.
N. R. Presley talked with the fire

H10IMO IS A SIMPLE WAY OF COR
KKCTINGTT INSTANTLY BE
BEFORE IT BECOMES
CHRONIC.
Very few people go through life
without some time or other being
troubled with constipation. Thou
sands Injure themselves by the use of
strong cathartics, salt mineral waters,
pills and similar things. They have
te&porary value iu some cases, lt ls
true, but the good effect ls soon lost,
and the more one takes of them the
less effective they become.
A physic or purgative ls seldom
necessary, and much better and more
permanent results can be obtained by
using a scientific remedy like Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It does not
hide behind a high sounding name,
but lt ls what it is represented to
be, a mild laxative medicine. It Is
so mild that thousands of mothers
give it to tiny Infants, and yet it ls
so compounded, and contains such
definite ingredients that it will have
equally good effect when used by a
person suffering from the worst
chronic constipation. In fact, among
the greatest endorsers of Syrup Pep
sin ar?, elderly people who have suf
fered for years and found nothing to
benefit them until they took Syrup
Pepsin.
It Is D fact that millions of fami
lies have Syrup Pepsin constantly In
the house, homes like those of Mrs.
G. B. Pruitt, Borea, Ky., who used
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin ns a laxa
tive tonic. Mrs. Pruitt, writes that it
it so strengthened and cleansed her
system that she was quickly relieved
of a severe cough which had troubled
her for months. The special value
