of Mr. M. B. Massey, of Newport. For merly the cow belonged to J. M. Clin ton, the erstwhile chairman of th Republican party In York county. Mi Massey levied on it sometime ago t satisfy his mortgage, and another par ty brought claim and delivery pro ceedings. It developed that Captain J H. Barry had a prior mortgage, am Mr. Massey bought it. The claim an< delivery case was to have been hear< before Magistrate Barron on Wednes day; but because of facts that coul< not be controverted, the proceeding were dropped by the party who insti tued them. It seems that during th past two or three years, Clinton ha mortgaged the cow at least a dozei times, and there are no less than i half dozen DeoDle who would like t prosecute him; but he is not to b found. Fort Mlll'a Rural Route*. Fort Mill Times: Special Agent F P. Boushee, of the rurai mail service was in Fort Mill last Wednesday, fo the second time within the past thre< months. The object of Mr. Boushee'! visit to this section was to inspect th? roads over which the mail of the Ar drey's star route is carried, with th< view of converting the star route int< a rural delivery route. Mr. Boushe< was accompanied on his tour of in' spection by Mr . J. W. Ardrey, t( whom much credit is due for his efforts in trying to have the route established. The proposed route wil cover practically the same territory a* the star route. The present incoming trip of the carrier will, however, be made the outgoing trip, and vice versa One slight change will be made in the route from Barbersville to Fort Mill, ir that the carrier will cross Sugar creek over Bailes' instead of Barber's bridge. Mr. Boushee spoke very favorably ol the proposed route; but stated that il would be necessary to do considerable >>? rnoH KotTunon TTnrf AT ill and Barberville before the route will be established. It Is now up to those living nearest the objectionable strip of road to see that it is put In proper condition at once. It is understood that the route will probably be established by the 1st of January, if the necessary work is done by that time. While in this section, Mr. Boushee also inspected the proposed rural delivery route through Waxhaw, which may also be established in the near future. The establishment of the rural delivery mail route through Gold Hill is now a certainty. Postmaster Massey, on Monday morning, received the necessary blanks, etc., for beginning service, and the carrier will make his first trip on January 1. A number of interested gentlemen are now engaged in taking orders for mail boxes to be placed along the route. It is understood that the postoffice department will place two boxes?one at W. E. Griffin's store, the other near W. H. Windle's home?for the reception of mail matter. SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. December 'Weather For 30 Year*.

Spartanburg special, of Thursday, to the Columbia State: The homicide that usually attends a holiday in this section, came off on schedule time last night at 10 o'clock, at Converse, six miles from this city. Two operatives of the Clifton Manufacturing company's mill, Mac Lowry and William Latimore, went to tne home of John Grizzle, and Lowry, who was making himself quite obnoxious to the family, one of whom was sick, was requested to leave the place. His companion, Lattimore, attempted to force him out of the door. A scuffle ensued in which Lowry was shot. The bullet entered In the region of the heart and death was Instantaneous. Lattimore escaped before arrest could be affected, and had not, up to this afternoon, been arrested. Sennatlon In LaurenH. Laurens special of Wednesday to the Greenville News: Laurens experienced a rather unusual sensation this morning when it became known that a well known young man had been shot during the night as he was fleeing from the premises, indeed from the residence, of one of the best families in the city. It was after midnight when residents in the vicinity of South Harper street were aroused and attracted * - ? 4.J J3 Ki IO tne aoove mcuuuucu uuuscuuiu uj cries for help from the lady occupants who were defenseless in the absence of their natural protector, the husband and father.

Columbia special of Tuesday, to th< New York Sun: Particulars of th< murder of Mrs. Rachel Powell, alia Thomas, by whitecaps, in the moun tains of Oconee county, 17 miles fron o toiscranh office, were received her tonight. Ten young men, mostly wel connected, are already in Oconee jail while warrants are being Issued for oth ers. The moon was very bright am many were recognized by Wesley Pow ell. Powell and the woman who wa killed were under indictment for adul tery. Mrs. Powell was 50 years olc They had five children, who witnesse the killing of their mother. Accordin to Powell's statement, late on Sunda night, a crowd came to his house They had tools and started to tea down his house. They demolished th chimney, tore off the roof and had at tacked the walls when he came ou' - The first four men he saw were recog nized as the Hudson boys. He attacke ed them with a piece of plank and r. knocked Money Hudson down. About 0 this time Mrs. Powell came to the door - and the crowd fired on her.

The State, Wednesday: The Epworth ' orphanage has lost the superintendent !? who has been in charge since the esr tabllshment of the institution in 1895, 3 the Rev. George Henry Waddell, who 3 entered the Methodist conference in 5 1895. Mr. Waddell has been forced to " resign on account of ill health. The 1 little children at the orphanage have 1 thus lost a true and tried friend, one ; who has been a father to them and " one whom they all love devotedly. > Last night the annual meeting of the Epworth board was held and that body elected Mr. Waddell financial manager 1 of the orphanage. To succeed him as } superintendent the . Rev. Whitfield > Brooks Wharton, now serving the ! church at Prosperity in the Cokesbury district, was elected. The board re ceived the annual reports of the ini stitution, which were gratifying, and attended to considerable business. The new superintendent was born in Laurens county, near Waterloo, in 1858. He graduated from Wofford college in 1892. At college he was known as "Un[ cle Whit," which title will likely fol[ low him to the orphanage. He Joined . the South Carolina conference in No, vember, 1892, and served in the Green wood circuit for four years, going thence to the Donalds circuit, and lastly to the charge he now serves. His . friends predict for him a successful career as the head of the crowning char, itable institution of the Methodists of the state. He has quite a reputation as a careful, earnest man of business as well as piety. Cliarlestonlans Eaay. News and Courier: While things are rather quiet as yet, the smooth ones contrive to let the people know they are in town and that they are out for the business. A day or two ago a confectioner had a little experience that taught him that there are times when the hand is quicker than the eye. A well-dressed stranger walked into the candy man's establishment and bought a dollar's worth of sweetmeats. While the proprietor was wrapping up the candy the stranger asked him if he could give him a twenty-dollar note for twenty silver dollars. He wished to mail the money to a friend. The merchant said he would grant the request. While the storekeeper was busy counting the silver the customer placed the note in an already addressed and stamped envelope and sealed it. There were only nineteen dollars in the pile. When the stranger's attention was called to the fact he handed the merchant the envelope, which was supposed to contain the note, and, gathering up the silver, said ^e would step across the street and get the other dollar. The merchant, suspecting nothing, accepted the letter and allowed the customer to walk away with the silver. After some time elapsed the storekeeper opened the letter and found it contained a blank piece of paper. AT THE CHURCHES. BAPTIST. Sunday services?sunaay scnooi in 1 the morning at 10 o'clock.

WHEN I made the announcement last week, of a public test and exhibition of the UTICA Chemical Fire Extinguisher, to be held on the court house square, last Tuesday evening, I had no fear but that the machine would do all that manufacturers claim for it as a fire extinguisher. However, you will find in the statement below, the facts in the case, as seen by three representative citizens of Yorkville, who were present at the test: Yorkville, S. C., Nov. 27th, lswi. We witnessed the tests made with the "Utica" Chemical Fire Extinguisher on some boards, straw and excelsior, saturated with kerosene oil at the corner of Congress and Liberty streets, Yorkville, on the night of the 2Gth. The fire was well underway and the flames running 15 feet high w;hen the chemicdl was applied; In one and onehalf minutes the flames were under control, and in two minutes the fire was out. We believe this apparatus is valuab e and recommend it to the consideration of all. M. C. WILLIS, J. J. KELLER, P. W. LOVE, Referees. The UTICA extinguisher is especially valuable for protection of private residences, stores, offices, cellars, factories, etc. The machine Is just as effective in the hands of a lady or a child as in the hands of an expert. If you want fire protection for your home, you should own a UTICA Fire Extinguisher. Circulars on application. SAM M.
