S. tsraarora aiea verv suddenly while directing some work in St. Stephen's cemetery. D<ath was instantaneous, due to an att. ok of the heart. Mr. Bradford was one of the best known and mo&t highly beloved men in Lexington, doming here several years ago from Augusta, he assumed the position of associate editor of The Dispatch, a position he filled with satisfaction and ability. He was also postmaster here for about six years. He was instrumental in the establishment of the Palmetto Collegiate Institute and was active in all that pertained to the betterment of the town. His wife, who was a moat estimable woman, died a few years ago, and the family moved to Portsmouth, Va., where they resided for about a year when they returned to Lexington. Mr. Bradford will he missed by everybody. He was always ready and willing to lend aid to those in distress and his whole life was spent in doing good. He was about 67 years old, and is survived by four daughters and two sons, as follows: Mrs. Ella Edwards, of New York; Miss Helen Bradford, secretary of the agricultural department of Clemson college; Mrs. P. T. Brodie and Miss Mae Bradford, of T 9 ? ? *?- T_1 ^ T> A $ } jl^exingion; ?ur. juic dihuiuiu, ui ucn York, and Mr.-Hal Bradford, of Tampa, Fla.

Polite and Pr< Clint Rhodoa Silled By W. B. Q-lenn. Olinfc Rhodea wa9 shot and instantly killed on the streets of Batesbnrg last Thursday afternoon at 1 o'clock, City Electrician Wm. B. Glenn, three shots from a 38 calibre revolver having taken effect in the body, eitner of which would have produced instant death. Mr. Glenn gave up to the authorities at Batesbnrg and came direct to Lexington, where he remained in jail until last night, when ho was released on bond in the sum of $5,000. Ju9t what the trouble arose over is hard to learn, but it is generally understood that bad feeling had existed between the two for several weeks. It is also stated that Rhoden had made threats against the life of Mr. Glenn and that he was in the act of pulling a pistol, when Glenn fired. Glenn is carrying a black eye, as a result of a severe blow from Rhoden. Mr. Glenn has been employed as city electrician by the town of Batesburg for several years, in fact, ever since Batesburg has had an electric light plant, and is held in highest esteem by everyone. A harder working man than "Bill" Glenn is not to ^ be found Anywhere and he i9 as honest as the days are long. He ha9 employed Messrs. Efird & Dreher, Hon. W. H. Sharpe and Col. E. F. Strother, of Batesburg, to defend him. Both parties had many friends, and the tenible tragedy is regretted by everyone. K:s. EraboA Haman Undergoes Oporation. Mrs. Reuben Harm an is in the Columbia hospital, where she was carried on Friday afternoon for treatment. An operation was performed by Drs. Owens & Derrick for obstruction of the bowels, and at la9t reports, she was getting along nicely. H r many friends wish for her a permanent r jcovery. Captured In Florida. Sheriff P. H. Corley captured Henry Planter, a negro, who escaped from the county chaingang during February last year,' at Sanford, Fla., on Thursday. Planter, it will be recalled, was a "trusty," and was permitted the usual privileges around the camp. 0 ie nig it, while the gang was located near the poor house, Planter made his escape just before a very heavj rain, which made it a physical impossibility for the author;Lies to run him down, or to even have an idea as to which course he lock, Sheriff Corley at cnce got bu y. and it was rot long before he was on the trail of his man. The first evidence of Planters' whereabouts was found in North fbirnlina. but as that Fta'e had just voted prohibition Planter decided that he would hunt a damper ciima e and made his way to the "Land <f Flowers,'' where ho would have 110 difficult}* in satisfying his appetite, and where all negroes want to go. But this proved a wrong step for Pla. ter, for Sheriff Oorley was soon on his trail and now, instead of enjoying the "blessings of a trusty," he is doing stunts under Capt. Mack 011 the Augusta road with a pick and snovel, and wearing the ball and chains. This he will continue to do for sixteen months, unless he succeeds in making another escape, and this is m t likely. TIir:e Sffurdsred 2a 0:is Laurens, March 'J 7.? In the vicinity of Parks .Station, three miles east of the city, last night Toney Ander.cn was shot dead in the cabin home of Ida McCoy Nelson, the negivsi hers-If mortally wounded, dying a few hours later, and Alex Ray, living a mile distant, was called to his door and shot through the heart, expiring almost instantly. About an hour after the double crime at Ida Nelson's, Alex Ray was aroused by some one in the yard who wished to see him on business. Hay came to the floor and his callers .asked if ho could change a dollar, llav replied that he probably could, an 1 upon petting his pooketbook returned to the door when he was felled to the fioorwith a ghastly gunshot wound in the chest. He never spoke. His wife heard the talking bef/re the shot was fired, but did not recognize any of the visitors vvicesj IT, COLUMBIA, H.
