"I'll pay you In lead," said King, drawing his pistol and shooting. "If you shoot papa you'll have to shoot nie," cried the boy running up, where- I upon King shot him dead and then fired three more shots at the father. "You've killed my baby," screamed Mrs. Rodgers. "I'll kill the whole damned family," said King, snapping the smoking pistol in her face. It was then empty. King left word with his wife that he would not be taken by the sheriff. He is at large. The Good Roadw Convention. Thd Smith Carolina Good Roads convention met in Columbia on last Tuesday pursuant to a call issued by President Hyatt, and continued in session until Wednesday afternoon. The Good Roads association was organized last year and the membership includes all those interested in this work. The meetings are held during the session of the legislature, in order that the general assembly may be informed as to the work being done and the interest shown in the movement may be seen by the body. The meeting was called to order by the president and, after prayer by Presiding Elder Beasley, the address of welcome was made by the Hon. Francis H. Weston. Gov. D. C. Heyward followed with an address on good roads, telling many interesting facts in connection with the subject, and promising all the assistance in his power to anything that would benefit the highways of the state. Governor Heyward was followed by President Hyatt, who stated the object of the convention, and outlined the work to be done. The convention then got down to business and re-elected the officers of the association as follows: President, F. H. Hyatt; secretary, Earle Sloan, of Charleston; treasurer, B. E. Tally, of Anderson. A committee on resolutions was appointed, consisting of Messrs. J. M. Major, Greenwood; C. D. Smith, n^orviiio' a m Williamson. Dar lington; S. E. Owens, Richland, W. P. Cantwell, Charleston, and the president; to whom all resolutions and memorials to be introduced in the legislature pertaining to good roads should be referred. The resolutions will be gone over and then submitted through the representatives. The attendance was about fifty, nearly every county in the state being represented. A committee was appointed to memorialize the legislature to pass an act to allow counties to vote on the question whether bonds should be voied for permanent improvements of roads, the amount of bonds to be limited to 5200,000, to be used 520,000 worth at a time, until the whole amount is used, provided that amount is.- necessary. A resolution was also adopted, calling upon the senate to adopt the house bill permitting the sentencing of con victs to the chalngang ror ten years. There was a good deal of discussion over the commutation tax matter, but no recommendations were made. The various supervisors had an experience meeting on road building and some valuable information was elicited. The only other business of interest transacted was that the time of meeting was changed from the third Monday in January to the third Wednesday in that month. The place will be Columbia, as usual. THE VENEZUELAN EMBROGLIO. Negotiators Still Engaged In Sparring For Points. Every effort is being made by the representatives of the allies here, says a Washington dispatch of Wednesday, to secure an early settlement of the Venezuelan dispute without referring it to The Hague. In this effort the Italian and .British ambassadors and the German minister, Baron von Sternburg, are receiving the endorsement of Mr. Bowen as well as the cordial approval of the administration. It is understood that the president, while in no way. connected with the negotiations, is- personally in favor of a final agreement being reached at Washington. This fact, it is believed, will have an important bearing on the decision of the British and German foreign offices. The British ambassador and the German minister have both cabled to their font +V?Q t Mr Rftivpn f;uv ciuiuciuo nit iuvw itiMv has expressed his willingness to give the allies preferential treatment for three months in order that they may emerge from the controversy without injury to their honor. The allies have not yet answered the last representations of their envoys urging an acceptance of their plan. Advices have been received from Berlin of an important nature, but assurances are given that they were sent prior to the submission of the last proposition and affected only a detail of the controversy. Their purport was not discouraging. It may be some days yet before a final answer reaches Washington, but all the negotiators feel hopeful of a successful outcome. At a joint conference at the British embassy the three months' proposition was discussed at length, and the question of the possible reference of the case to The Hague was considered. It was declared that the claimant nations will suffer far more than Venezuela if the Washington negotiations fail. Reference to The Hague would serve only to complicate further an ugly situation *V.?> noirnHafnra fwl that the main effect would be an increase of unrest throughout the United States and South America against the allied powers. British and German trade, it is pointed out, is suffering greatly from the maintenance of the blockade. The British ambassador had a long conference with Secretary Hay during Wednesday and in the meantime Baron Sternburg was calling on Mr. Bowen. The British ambassador was desirous of knowing the attitude of the Washington government respecting a reference of the dispute to The Hague and the fact that the administration favors prompt settlement by the Washington negotiators themselves, induced him to lay before his government the reasons why acceptance of preferential treatment for three months was desirable. It is regarded as fortunate that the negotiators themselves are acting in harmony. Early in the Venezuelan negotiations the British ambassador pledged himself to do all in his power to settle the Venezuela dispute as soon as possible and all his efforts in this direction are receiving the endorsement of the Washington government. It is stated in an authoritative quarter that the president and the German em peror are taking great interest in the early adjustment of the dispute, feeling that no good can come of prolonging the blockade. AFTER THE KAILKOADS. Ilouxe Would Compel Tliem to Stand lly Their KnteM. There is no doubt about the fact that patrons of the railroads are frequently annoyed in the matter of securing rebates on account of overcharges. It is frequently the case that a shipper is asked to pay freight in excess of the charges fixed in his bill of lading, and until he does so the freight will not be delivered. Then comes the process of recovering the overchange, which is so slow and tedious a nature that it is often abandoned in disgust. The general assembly, or the house at least, is trying to remedy this situation, and to that end, on last Tuesday passed the following: Section 1. That from and after the passage of this act all railroads or railroad companies doing business in this state shall protect the rate of freight stipulated in the bill of lading for the carriage of all freights, goods, wares and commodities of every kind, whether the said bill of lading be foreign or domestic, and for the failure or refusal of any railroad or railroad companies or their agents to deliver all such freights, goods, wares or other commodities upon demand, and payment of freight charges equalling the rate stated in the bill of lading, said railroad company shall be fined in the sum of two hundred dollars, to be recovered for each and every offence, in any court of competent jurisdiction, one-half of which shall go to the consignee aggrieved and the remaining balance deposited in the county treasury as other public funds. Sec. 2. That where any loss or shortage occurs in any shipment of goods, wares, merchandise or other commodities, as may be shown by the original bill of lading, the railroad or railroad company delivering the partial shipment shall, upon the demand of the consignee or consignees at the time of delivering the partial shipment, pay the consignee the full cost value of all such goods, wares, merchandise or other commodities as may have been lost in transit. For the failure or re- j fusal of any railroad or railroad company or their agents to comply with tho nmvisions of this section, said rail road company shall be fined In the sum of two hundred dollais for each and every offence, to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction, onehalf of which shall be paid to the consignee aggrieved, and the balance placed in the county treasury where the offence may have been committed, and used as other public funds. Sec. 3. All damage to goods, wares, merchandise or commodities of every kind while in transit, caused by water, careless handling or otherwise, shall likewise be adjusted at the time of delivery by the railroad or railroad company delivering the same, under fine and penalty of the preceding section. All acts and parts of acts inconsistent with this act be, and the same are hereby, repealed. A bill of this same nature passed the house at the last session; but it was killed in the senate. The opposing view is that it Is unconstitutional in some of its provisions, and unjust, especially in the fact that it requires the delivery road to be responsible for mistakes or damages that may be really chargable to the receiving road. It is pretty generally admitted, however, that the situation requires adjustment. Hanna Hunting Votes.?If Uncle Marcus Hanna is not bidding for the Negro votes in the next Republican national convention, says a Washington special of Wednesday, he had better take in his sign. All Washington is giving voice to some such sentiment as that tonight. The occasion for this comment is a bill which the Ohio senator introduced today, providing for pensions for former slaves. This bill provides that ex-slaves over 70 years of age shall receive a bounty of $500 and a pension of $15 a month; those between 60 and 70 a bounty of $300, and a pension of $12 a month; those between 50 and 60 a bounty of $100 and a pension of $8 a month; those under 50 years shall be entitled to receive $4 per month until they are 50 years old, when they shall receive $8 per month. Several weeks ago a deputation of colored men went to the White House to secure from President Roosevelt his endorsement of this slave pension proposition. The president turned them down so hard that the leader of tho rtemitation went from the White House swearing vengeance upon President Roosevelt and declaring that they could control 300,000 votes in the states of the north, which would be thrown against Roosevelt if he were the Republican candidate in 1904. Later this definance was repudiated by others active in the movement. The fact that Senator Hanna has come out as its chief supporter at this time is regarded as high significant. ? According to a cable dispatch of Wednesday from Caracas, Venezuela, the government troops, under Alcantara, a graduate from West Point, have defeated a force of rebels numbering nine hundred, under the Revolutionary general, Ducharme, on the Camatagua river, about fifty miles south of Casacas. The rebels were routed, their ammunition and 230 prisoners were captured. On the receipt of the news of the victory, prices on the Stock Exchange here jumped four points. Since the rout of Gen. Matos and his army or ten mousana men uy President Castro, near La Victoria, October 18, the remnant of the rebel forces has been dispersed in all directions. These scattered bodies of rebels, believing that arms and ammunition had been landed, lately reunited, and to the number of about 2,000, under Gens. Rolando and Ducharme, assembled at Altagracia at the entrance to the Gulf of Maracaibo and at Orituco, a village 60 miles from Caracas. Gen. Ducharme, with nine hundred men, advanced up the Camatagua river. President Castro sent a force of one thousand troops against him, under Gen. Alcantara, who took the rebels by surprise and routed them after a seven hours' fight. Alcantara captured thirty officers and two hundred soldiers, forty thousand rounds and all the rebels' reserve ammunition, and fifty animals. The balance of Ducharme's army fled in the direction of Orituco. Unices. Enquirer Club Makers. Each of the following persons are engaged in making a club of subscribers rv??- vfwvvii.T.i!

Our Sole Object During n C oo To JL Ills JLTU1I tjtaouil AO to Reduce Stock. rjlHIS is the season In which the customer comes nearer making prices on our goods than during any other season of the year. Except for a few belated customers, the regular winter trade is over. We have commenced to buy spring and summer stock, and within another month will be getting some of it in. Because of continued heavy sales all fall and winter, we have never allowed our regular winter stock to run down materially; but Instead have kept it up to an unusual standard of completeness. Now we need room, and of all the ways there are of making room, we prefer that of distributing the goods to our patrons. Clothing. Hundreds of people have been through our big stock of CLOTHING during the past fall and hundreds of people have been FITTED and MUCH PLEASED. Although our sales have aggregated many thousands of dollars, to all appearances there are as many goods In our CLOTHING department now as there was last fall. This Is because we have not allowed our stock to run down. It Is not a difficult matter to set a FIT, and It Is not difficult to be PLEASED WITH PRICES. We are not looking for profits now; but for sales, and the prices we are making are calculated to astonish. Hats and Caps. We have a long line of HATS for men and boys. The line Includes various styles and prices. There are also many different kinds of CAPS. The I prices have been slashed to a point where they look like a travesty on legitimate trade. Suspenders. We have SUSPENDERS for everybody. Another large order has Just arrived and they are here of all kinds and prices. The line Includes a full assortment of the FAMOUS HARRIS WIRE BUCKLE and the prices run from 10 CENTS on up. Shoes. A more complete line of SHOES than we now have has never been seen in Yorkvllle?not even among the big stocks that we ourselveo have been accustomed to carry. In DOUGLASS SHOES we have practically every style, size and quality made by that well known concern. For the ladies and children we still carry the incomparable DREW-SELBY, and among the cheaper every-day Shoes we are showing ALFRED'S BEST, COTTON KING, etc. Staples. There has been a material advance in Staples, such as 4-4 Sheeting, Prints, etc.; but we laid in a big supply Just before the advance took effect and our prices remain jusi ine same. Embroideries and Laces. We have miles and miles of match EMBROIDERIES and LACES. No other store in this section has ever attempted to exhibit at one time such a quantity as we now have in stock. For Just an intimation of the quality , and quantity of our MATCH EMBROIDERIES we would ask the ladies to take a glance at our south show window. Then we would ask them to come in and make a more particular inspection. If we have not enough of Embroideries and Laces to supply the trade, we would like to know the reason why. The Grocery Department. We have completed arrangements and are looking forward this year to supplying a larger number _of custo mers from our GROCER* jjiiifArt j.MENT than ever before. We have already laid in tremendous stocks of : FLOUR, BACON, MOLASSES, SUG- ; AR, and other staples, and we will , have everything that our customers can possibly want. People who have been trading with us heretofore have found that we not only know how to take care of them; but that we are able and willing to do so, and we beg to extend a general invitation to everybody engaged in the farming business, whether on a CASH or CREDIT basis, to see us before making arrangements for this year.
