TBK COUNTY FAIR \ y ? LARGE ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING HELD TUESDAY. L Decided to Organize an Association - for ?ho Holding of a Fair in This City Every Year. A large and enthusiastic meeting Olvfanneru of the county, and busi ness men Of this city, was held in the court house at 11 o'clock on Tues day morning in obedience to the call of Capt. Jas. H. Claffy, President of the County Fanners Union, and Mr. John Cart, President of the Or angeburg Chamber of Commerce, to discuss the feasibility of organizing * joint stock company for the purr pose of holding a County Fair in this city every fall. The -mee ting was called to order by Mr. Cart, who stated Its object, and then introduced Capt. Claffy, who made a report as to what a joint . committee of the Farmers' Union and the Chamber of Commerce had agreed upon in reference to the matter. He said the committee had secured op? tions on two pieces of land suitably' for the purposes of a fair and recom mended that a fair association he or ganized with a capital of $20,000, with shares at a par value of ten dollars The meeting was then resolved into a meeting of citizens of the county, and elected Capt. Claffy president and Col. A. H. Marchant secretary. On taking the chair, Capt. Claffy thanked the meeting for the honor conferred upon him, and pledged his best ef forts to make the object of the meet ing a grand success. He said all the people in the city were in favor of the fair, and therefore he would call first on the people from the county for an expression of opinion. He then called on Mr. L. W. Livin ston, County Superintendent of Edu cation, who said he was heartily in favor of the movement and felt sure that the fair would be a great benefit to the city and county. Thought it would advance the agricultural in terests of the county very materially. He said the boys corn club and the girls tomatto club of the county would t.nite with the fair and help make it a grand success. He said lie .ally endorsed the movement. Hon. L. A. Carson, of Providence, said the people of his section were in favoi of the fair, and would help get it up. He said it would prove a good thing for both the city and the country. He thought every mer chant and farmer ought to take at least one share in the association. He fully endorsed the movement and wanted to see it a success, as the fair would prove a good thing for all. Hon. Edgar L. Culler, of Lime stone, spoke next. He said he knew of nothing why Orangeburg County should not have a good fair. Many other counties have fairs, and suc ceed with them, and he saw no reason why Orangeburg, the best county in the State, should not do the same. He thought a fair would bring the people together, and would tend to more progressive farming. He was heartily in faor of the movement. Mr. J. J. Fairey said the fair would be a great advantage and he heartily endorsed the movement. Mr. W. S. Barton, Jr., said he was satisfied if the farmers would take hold 6i the movement that it would be a grand success, and of great ben efit to thorn. He said nearly every farmer could and should take at least one share in the association. He concluded by saying we must have the fair. Capt. J. A. Weathershee, of Nor way, heartily enuorsed the movement and said he would do all he could to help it along in his section. He said he was opposed to the carnivals but was heartily in favor of a clean coun ty fair. (Mr. Sol Kohn said not only the > " men, but that the ladies, girls and boys must be induced to take hold of the project and help along the movement to hold a fair. He wanted action taken at once looking to an organisation of a fair association. He thought every one should take a share or two in the association. Or angeburg county, he said, was recog nized as a leader among the lower tier o;! counties, and she must not fail in this important matter. Col. M. O. Dantzler said there was no rocm for jealousy on the part of any one in this matter; he was glad that it had taken definite shape, and thought the fair should be made a great success. He said the progress of the farmers of this county in the last few years was most wonderful; that two and three horse plows had largely taken the place of the one horse plow, and that he was glad of tho progress being made by pur farmers, who, he said, ranked among the best in the State. He was sure that tie movement would be a grand success. After the above inspiring speeches, Mr. W. C. Crum, moved that it was the sense of the meeting that an as sociation be formed for the purpose of holding county fairs in this city once i year. The motion was unan imously adopted. Hoa. Robert Lide moved that the | fair committee appointed by the Chamber of Commerce be continued and with one additional member from j each township, shall constitute the executive committee of the associa- j tion, looking, after subscriptions to! the capital stock, getting a charter, j and so on. On motion of Rev. J. L. McLees I the president was requested to ap-j point the additional members of the i committees from the townships at his liesure. Hon. I. W. Bowman moved that a quorum of the executive committee ! he fixed at five, but, on motion of Mr. T. B. Traywick, the motion was laid on the table and the committee was left to fix its own quorum when it met and organized. Judge B. H. Moss suggested that -EDISTO RIVER SURcTEY Making Final Arrangements to Be gin the Work As stated in The Times and Democrat sometime ago Engineer Fitzslmmons, 'of the United States oorp of civil engineers, who are to make the official survey of the Edisto river, is in the city making final ar rangements for the survey. The ac tual work will be begun within the next few weeks and a large corps of engineers and-jcolaborera will have charge of the~work. It is said that there will be some fifteen engineers and about as many helpers to the en engineers. The surveyors will be di vided into three parties, one party taking each bank, while the third will make the survey in boats on the river. A number of mules and wa gons will be used in the work also. The whole party will need consider able supplies, which will be bought from our merchants as far as poss ible. * The survey is to be a very careful one and it is hoped that a favorable report will be made to congress in order that the river may be opened to navigation. At the last session of Congress $15,000 was appropriat ed for this survey of the Edisto liver, looking to opening the river to navigation from Orangeburg < to Charleston. Any courtesy shown the surveyors by the residents of the sec tion through which they will have to travel will be appreciated. DOINGS OF SOCIETY. Social Events of Recent Interest Jotted Down.

SABIN FATALLY WOUNDED BY R. CHESTNUT. ? . Not Definitely Known What Caused the Shooting, Bot Report Says a Letter Did. W. R. Sabin, mana.ger of the Dix ie Lumber Company, of this city, ?was shot and seriously wounded in the office of the company Tuesday morning at eight o'clock by R. Chest nut, a contractor and builder of this city. Sabin was at his desk when Chestnut fired the first Bhot. If Sab in had any weapon he did not try to use it, as he closed in on Chestnut before he was shot. The ball entered the abdomen and inflicted a very serious wound. Tho wounded maa was taken to Columbia, where he died about two o'clock Wednesday afternoon. The details of the affair are that about eight o'clock Tuesday morning Chestnut walk ed into the office of the Dix ie Lumber Company, where was seat ed Mr. W. R. Sabin, the manager, and after applyirg a vile epithet to Sabin pulled a pistol and fired two shots at him, neither of which took effect. About this time a Mr. Cun ningham, an employee of the lumber company, and the only eye-witness to the affray, except the participants, at tracted by the reports of the weapon, entered the office and remonstrated with Chestnut, who was being plead ed with by Sabin to desist in further attack and to explain the cause of his action, as he, Sabin, was not aware of anything he had done to give offence, when Chestnut cursed Cunningham and threatened to shoot him, but at the same time placing the pistol in his coat pocket. Talk was rapid between the three men, however, and Chestnut not hav ing cooled off, again drew the pistol when Sabin closed in upon hiiii and was shot in the left side, just oelov: the heart, and fell to the floor. Af ter shooting Sabin, Chestnut is said to have retreated very rapidly, in a run, to his home, which is not far away from where the shooting v?as dor.e, where he remained onlv a short time, then coming out and sur rendering to the sheriff. The above account, which was furnished The News and Courier by its Orangebnrg correspondent, agrees nearly with what we heard of the tragedy. Mr. Sabin was at once attended by Dr. L. C. Shecut, but it was impossible to determine how serious the woimJ was, an ugly one, and it was hastily decided to take him to Columbia on the 10 o'clock train for treatment.. ?One of our prominent business men reached Sabjn a few minutes after the shooting, and the wounded man told hin exactly how it happened. Sab in said while he was sitting at h's desk Chestnut entered and fired at him almost before he was aware of Chestnut's presence. There was quite an interval between the first and sec ond shots. In the meantime Sabin had demanded of Chestnut to know what he was trying to kill him for. In answer, Chestnut opened fire again, and in an attempt to save his life Sabin closed in on him. While the two men were tusseling, some of the boards (of which the office was built gave way, and they fell out, with Chestnut on top, and then he shot Sabin. Sabin told this gertle nien that he knew of no cause why Chestnut wanted to kill him. There were all sorts of reports in circulation as to the cause of the dif ficulty, but the one perhaps which explains Chestnut's actions is of a domestic character. It is said that he found Tuesday morning at his home a letter signed by Sabin and in criminating in terras, which so infuri ated him, that he ',ost control of him self and rested not until he had made the attempt to avenge the wrong he thinks had been done himself and family. It is further stated, however, that the lady in the case denies the slightest intimacy with Sabin, assert ing that she barely knows him and pronounces the letter a forgery. It is said that Sabin denies writing any such letter, and asserts that he is barely acquainted with the lady to whom the letter was addressed. Both the men are comparatively new comers to this city. R. Chestnut is a contractor, and has been a resi dent of this city only a few years. I He is a quiet, hardworking man, with good habits, so far as we have ever | heard. He has a wife and chldren. His present wife, who is said to be a handsome woman, is his second wife, to whom he has been married only a j few years Be fore her marriage sh? | was a Miss Biewer, of this county. She has relatives and friends who could not be made to believe that she would be guilty of any such impro priety as is implied by the note that was found. W. R. Sabin, v.ho is about thirty yoirs and single, has been a resident of this dounty for several years. He | first lived at Ferguson, where he was connected with the large lumber plant at that place. Then he lived at Branchville, where he in connec- i tion, with his brother, carried on quite an extensive lumber business. ' Finally lie came to this city and es- j tablished the Dixie Lumber Company, i He has been a resident of this city over a year, and has the respect and j confidence of the public. It is bard 1 to believe that lie would be guilty of I j the indiscretion laid to his door, and j given as a cause for the shooting. It is thought by some that the not*.) was a forgery, and put where Chest nut could set it. so as to raise trou-! I bio between him and Sabin. If this be so, who could be so low as to write such a note, involving the good J name of an innocent lady, and the t peace and happiness of a good hus band and the life of a blameless man. If there is such a wretch in Orange burg he should be caught, tarred and feathered and told to move on. Chest LIST OP LETTERS. Those Remaining Unclaimed In the Orangeburg Postofflce.
