VERY BADLY HURT
MB. CluIFTON HORGER STRUCK
m A NEGRO MAN.
Sheriff S alley Runs the Negro Down
"With Bloodhounds aid Lodged
Him in Jail.
While Mr. Clifton Horger, youngest
son of the late Dr. A. C. Horger, for
many years County Treasurer, and a
negrG 'jy I he belbe of John Felder
were engaged in a h?nd to hand fight
late Su iday afternoon, another negro,
Ed Felder came up from behind and
dealt a terrific blow to Mri Horger on
the hee d, using a heavy piece of fence
slat.
It seems that the two men were on
the ground and at cLe time Mr. Hor
ger was on top of John Felder The
blow with the heavy weapon fractur
ed the skull of the young mu>?. Mr.
Horger fell unconscious and remained
go for several hours. Drs. T. H.
I?re?i<}]*, of St. Matthews, aad D. J.
Hydrick, of Orangeburg, trephined
tee badi? fracture! ?,Kaii at 7 o'clock
Sunday afternoon.
The negro fled immediately. Sher
iff Salley was 'phoned for and his
bloodhounds could be heard in pur
suit' of the fugitive in the swamps,
near J amison, while the operation
was in progress on the depot plat
form. While the injury is severe, it
is thought that Mr. Horger's chances
for recovery is good
Mr. Horger is about thirty years
of age, \rd is unmarried. He is c
cousin of the Hon. Thomas P. Horger,
at one time a member of the Legisla
ture from :hls coui.ty. He is a fine
young man and lives on his place
near Jamison, where the assault was
made. The cause of the fight between
him and John Felder is not known.
WANTS MORE RAILROADS.
Live Mttle City of Elloree Wants An
other Outlet.
A dispatch from Elloree to The
State says "the dispatch from St. Mat
thews with reference to the proposed
Tailroad tapping the Atlantic Coast
Line at Creston, exteudinig to St Mat
thews and connecting with the Sea
board at Swansea, was read with in
terest here. Mention has been made
of thiltf project several times, and it
is hoped that such a plan will take
definite shape -and materialize at jyj
early date.
"The proposed road would pass
through one of th? best sec
tions in the State and would fill
a long-felt need. There has been a
great deal of talk recently with refer
ence to better railroad facilities for
this section. As it is the towns along
the Pregnals branch feel that they are
bottled up.
"A road is being build from Rowes
ville,. and efforts have been made to
have it pass Elloree, but no definite
understanding; has been reached. The
road, it is understood, will be, used
for hauling timber and could be used
for ordinary purposes. With this line
in permanent operation and the; pro
posed line from Creston to Swansea
the towns reached would be in splen
did shape as far as railroad facilities
are concerned."
We believe that some of these dayB
the Seaboard Air Line Railroad will
build into Charleston from Colum
bia, and it is very likely that it will
pass by Elloree, Holly Hill and other
towns in that section. These towns
shoui-1 keep their eyes jpen for this
extension when it is made. It would
he worth more to them than a road
to Swansea, via St. Matthews, as it
?would put them on a through line
between Charleston and Columbia,
and that is what they need.

SHOOTING SCRAPE ON TRAIN.
Negro Making His Escape Wounded
by Constable Byrd.
The Orangeburg correspondent of
The News and Courier says: "Thurs
day night on the Southern's pas
senger train from Charleston a
shooting scrape occurred at Rowes
ville, In which a negro, who had been
arrested on the train by Constable
Byrd; of Branchville, was shot. It Is
said that the negro, in attempting to
escape, pulled Byrd from the coach
an* during the scuffle Byrd shot the
negro. The prisoner, however, es
caped. Information from Sheriff
Dantzler of Calhoun County, Satur
day morning, is to the effect that the
negro has been recaptured and is in
his custody at St. Matthews."
To the Editor of The Sunday News:
1 notice in your issue of this date a
communication from your correspon
dent at Orangeburg headed a "Shoot
ing Scrape on the Train." The ver
sion given by your correspondent Is
not eractly a true version of the affair
and in justice to myself and to set
matters right, I will (give you a cor
rect statement:
In the first place I am a bondea
constable for Magistrate A. 8. Dukes,
of Branchville, and being armed with
a lawful warrant issued by Magistrate
Dukes, for the arrest of one Prou
Mintz, a negro of Rowesville, and be
ing informed that he would likely at
tempt to leave Rowesville on the
train igoing north, I boarded the train
at Branchville prepared to arrest him
when he boarded the train on its ar
rival at Rowesville.
Upon the arrival of the train at
Roweville, the negro boarded the
train. When I arrested him he sub
mitted quietly to the arrest until we
entered the vestibule of the car, when
he struck me a violent blow in the
side, which fractured two of my ribs,
and at the same time endeavored to!
gain possession of my gun, and then j
jumped from the vestibule of the
train and carried me with him, the
fall being very severe, stunned me.
In the meantime the report of a
pistol was heard. When we landed
on the ground the negro jumped up
and ran away, but was recaptured in
a few moments, and upon examina
tion he was found to have received a
gunshot wound in the side or breast.
The negro was placed under bond by
Magistrate A. S. Dukes, (who was
present on the ground at the time,)
for his appearance before the magis
trate. A. R. Byrd.

and was chased by the oncers. Hav
ing successfully eluded them he got
on the train. Officer Byrd followed

POT BEHIND BARS
LIFE OF A JT'GRO FIEND SAVED
BY WHITE MEN.
The Brute Guilty of Criminal Assault
Upon Little Girl at Swansea Safe
Behind Bars.
A dispatch to the State from Lex
ington says that Sam Carter, the ne
gro, who was rushed to the peniten
tiary by Sheriff P. H. Corley Thursday
night to prevent a probable attack on
the Lexington jail, is now safe behina
the bars, is due largely to the success
ful efforts of the officers and to a few
citizens of Swansea. This is the
statement made by Deputy Sheriff
Miller, who had just returned from
the vicinity where Carter is alleged
to have committed an assault upon a
little 12-year-old white child on Mon
day afternoon week' ago.
Carter had been working for the
father of the child for about a year,
having come to South Carolina from
Georgia. On Monday afternoon, 19th
instant, the little girl, together with
her two brothers and two sisters, all
of them younger than herself, were
picking blackberries in a field near
where the negro was working.
Seeing the children, Carter went to
where they were and enticed the lit
tle girl to a thicket in the woods,
telling her that he knew where there
was a lot of blackberries, at the
same time telling the other children
to remain where they were.
Soon afterwards a white man came
along and noticed the little girl con?
ing along the woods, followed closely
! by the negro, his suspicion aroused
from the appearance of the little girl,
he questioned her and the negro
closely, but failed to get any satisfac
tory answer. The girl's father was
notified, and the girl told of what
had happened, stating that Carter
had told her he would kill her if she
ever told.
A warrant was immediately i?sued
for Carter and before the news of the
assault had time to spread, the negro
was being rushed to Lexington in an
automobile. Sheriff Corley had been
notified by telephone and was on the
way to the scene when he was met
by the narty in the automobile. The
little girl belongs to a well known
family in the community and tho
crime created a great deal of excite
ment.
RAIN IS BADLY NEEDED.
No Rain of Consequence Has Fallen
for Several Months.
The Orangeburg correspondent of
the News and Courier says "this city
is still in the grasp of the most pro
longed and disactrous drought k.iown
to the oldest inhabitants. Som?? rain
have fallen in the county in the last
three or four months, but they have
been very partial, giving this imme
diate territory the go-by every day.
"""?Saturday and Sunday have broken
the heat record for the last 25 years.
The thermometer went on both days
in unexposed places to 98 and in some
others as high as 105. Nothing ap
proximating the present weather con
ditions has been known since 1 SSI,
thirty years ago. Sunday afternoon
a stiff breeze is blowing and a light
rain has fallen, which has relieved
somewhat the sweltering populace.
"The damage to date to the corn
crop Is immense and cannot be re
trieved to any great extent, and un
less copious rains come in a very
few days the present magnificent
prospects for a splendid cotton crop
in many sections of this country will
be blasted. Small vegetation of all
kinds is dying; gardens have yielded
none of their fruit and it is no
easy matter to find seasonable things
for the table.
Merchants report a very abnormal
ly large sale of canned goods, due
to the scarcity of vegetables, and
those that nre to be had are quite
beyond the reach of the citizen of
ordinary means in price.''
PLANNING BIG CELEBRATION.
The Glorious Fourth Will De Big Day
in Orangeburg.
The glorious fourth of July Is t.o
be celebrated in this city in the ante
bellum style, before war's devastating
hand was laid on this fair Southland,

meeting of the committee from the
chamber of commerre, which has the
.celebration in hand, met yesterday.
The stores of the city will observe
a half holiday. At daybreak the na
tional salute will be given by 21

(motorcycle, foot, bag and three-legg
l ed races, also a horse show, automo
bile parade, and firemorks at nicht.

ing the afternoon and night by the
Orangeburg Military Band.
Church Building Burned.
The old negro Baptist Church on
an alley between Green and Sunny
side streets, which for years was used
by the colored Baptists as a house of
worship, but which was abandoned
about three years ago as such and
since used only for Sunday-school
purposes, was destroyed by fire Sun
day morning at four o'clock. When
discovered the flames were all over
the building and little waa saved.
The origin of the fire is a mystery,
but It is supposed that some Improper
use had been made of the building b^v
tramps or other equally careless per
sons, and in that way the fire was
started.
HAPPILY MARRIED.
?Uss Mai Tilley and Mr. Willie I. D.
Bardin Made One.
Thursday evening, at the beautiful
country residence of Mr. and Mrs.
Peter D. Tijley, near Cameron, in the
presence of a brilliant assemblage of
relatives and friends, was solemnized
the union In holy wedlock of their
?Diy daughter, Mir.3 Mai, to Mr. Willie
I. D. Bardin, of Elloree. At 8 o'clock
the strains of Mendelssohn's "Wed
ding March," sweetly rendered by
Mrs. Dr. Trawick, announced the ar
rival of the hour. The groom entered
the parlor, which was artlstisally dec
orated with Southern smllax and
white roses, accompanied by Mr. Jas.
Owens, of Elloree, followed closely by
the bride on the arm of Miss Lela
Gates, of Cameron, joining arms as
they stepped upon a handsome seal
skin rug and standing beneath a huge
white floral bell.
The ceremony, accompanied by
sweet and soft noteB of music, was
performed by the Rev. Mr. Beden
baugh, of the Methodist Church. Af
ter the exchange of congratulations
and a visit to the sitting room to
view the many beautiful and costly
presents, consisting of silverware,
cut glass, bric-a-brac, linen, etc., all
were invited into the spacious dining
hali, beautifully decorated with blue
and white ribbon sstreaming from all
corners and joined together above the
centre of the table to a basket of
flowers.
There they were served-in elegant
style to a wedding feast. The bridal
cake was a huge castle formation, 25
inches high. The pitchers used for
Iiouring the tea belonged to the
bride's great-great-grandmother.
Serving at the punch bowl on the
west end of the large piazza, which
was brightly illuminated with Japan
ese lanterns, were Misses Daisey Ir
ick, of Elloree, and Miss Ellen Haig
ler of C;in<: ron.
The bride was especially handsome,
gowned in a superb and costly suit
of white silk marquisette built over
meBsaline s;itin and handsomely gar
nished with pear! trimming and ball
fringe, wearing a sunburst of dia
monds, the gift of the groom, and a
bandeau studded with pearls in her
hair. Miss Gates wore a gorgeous

son of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Bardin, 01
Elloree, in a young man of sterling
qualities, who by his business in
tegrity has won the respect and con
fidence of all who knew him.
THE LONGEST DAY.
Had Eighteen Hours and Three Min
utes of Daylight.
The summer solstice occurred last
Thursday according to the astron
omical calendar, and It was the long
est day in the year?15 hours and
19 minutes of sunshine and alto
gether 18 hours tand three minutes of
twilight at dawn and evening be in
cluded.
Wliile the sun's position is now
more directly upon the earth than at
any other time in the year, it is not
necessarily the hottest period of the
year..... The matter of atmospheric
heat in the summer Is not governed
by the sun's position to the earth.
The obverse is true as to the amount
of cold in the winter. It is all a
matter of friction?the meeting to
gether of the sun's rays with the at
mosphere of the earth and regulated
as to quantity and deigree by the
electro-magnetic waves of the terres
trial system?a wonderful affair
when you begin to think about it.
It is now the popular belief that
the days begin now bo shorten at
both ends. But a little investiga
tion will show that the sun will now
begin to rise later and set at exactly
the same time for at least three
weeks after the summer solstioe has
passed?the dlgerence being that on
July 9th the sun will rise six min-|
utes later than on June 21st. The]
day bagins to shorten a minute on
July 10, and the movement goes on in
that direction until the spring equi
nox occurs on March 21, when the
days and nights are equal in length.*
