Mr. Horger fell unconscious and remained go for several hours. Drs. T. H. I?re?i<}]*, of St. Matthews, aad D. J.

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.

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. FROM ORANGEBURG IN AUTO. Party Makes Quick Run to the City by the Sea Sunday. The News and Courier say "a par ty, consisting of Mr. and Mrs. R. Fulton Dukes, Miss Witherspoot., Miss Albergotti and Mr. G. R.

The automobllitr report the roads between Orangeburg and Charleston in good shape for motor car travel ?with the exception of a stretch of ?about five mi'es covered just after leaving Orangeburg county, and an other stretch of seven or eight miles between Summervt'ile and Charleston on the State road.

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. Branchville, June 24th.

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.''

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.

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.* Statement of the condition of The [tank of Norway, located at Nor way.
